“We’ll be there on Sunday, April 12 along Ocean Drive between 5th and 15th Streets. “We’re really looking forward to going down to Miami,” Mario Lopez said in a recent interview. Now he’s been welcomed with open arms in Miami Beach where he’s going to serve, along with his wife Courtney, as grand marshal in the Miami Beach Gay Pride Parade, which is certainly his most fabulous presenting role to date!
He’s been the host of such television series as America’s Best Dance Crew on MTV, The X Factor on FOX, and currently the celebrity newsmagazine Extra, which can be seen across Florida and nationwide in first-run syndication. Slater on the sitcom Saved by the Bell and more recently as host extraordinaire, a title he’s rightly earned. There wasn't the huge "Dykes on Bikes" element that I've seen in other parades, but there were a few.Many of us have loved Mario Lopez for decades, first as A.C. I actually tightened my abs when taking this pic out of habit.Ībout Noon the parade started with the Miami Beach Cop Car that shows up at gay events.įollowed by other businesses and orgs that are gay inclusive. Then I cam across this Carnival Muscle Guy cutout and just had to do it. I do not engage in hi-risk sex but on the outside chance. Only about 3 guys hot enuf to excite me.įirst thing I saw when I arrived around 11 AM was this HIV testing truck, so I went in and got tested even tho I knew I was negative.
It was not as crowded as in years past and there was a real lack of the floats full of Speedo Clad Buff Boys from various clubs. I attended the Miami Beach Gay Pride parade and festival today. OK, gonna redo this thread using links from facebook.
Most are on old threads not accessed too much, but it upsets me that they are there without images. So, all my foto essays of every Gay Rights event posted here from 2010 are now without pix.Īlso, I had many other linked pix from Photobucket that will now be gone, like my tattoos, Family history, - a bunch. I really think, (Like Michael Stokes has had with facebook, they are against any representation of gays celebrating themselves. The nudity was not the issue - I have all those fotos on tumblr or flikr. If I had the money, I would get a lawyer to make them explain exactly why the banned my account.

Today, while awaiting any dialogue from Photobucket support, I got this message: Then, I appealed to Photobucket "Support" for an explanation why a pic, taken on a Miami Beach sidewalk was a violation of their terms of service. So, I uploaded that pic to Twitter and linked it again. (Fucking PhotoBucket deleted this pic "Violation of Terms of Use" on April 15, 2015) It all started when this pic was deleted" All these pix that ppl enjoyed are now gone because the Photobucket account from where they were linked was banned.
