O site da prestigiada publicação gay norte-americana “Out” divulgou
sua lista anual com os gays mais poderosos dos Estados Unidos. O CEO da
Apple, Tim Cook, manteve a posição conquistada ano passado: o 1º lugar.
A apresentadora Ellen DeGeneres aparece em 2º lugar e o criador de
“Glee” e “American Horror Story”, Ryan Murphy, está em 4º lugar. Não há
muitos nomes conhecidos do grande público, especialmente entre os
brasileiros. (Veja a lista completa da “Out” aqui).
O jornalista bonitão Anderson Cooper ficou ranqueado em 6º, na lista
que ainda tem os estilistas Marc Jacobs (14º) e Tom Ford (26º), o
blogueiro Perez Hilton (39º) e a atriz Jane Lynch (46º).
Sentiu falta de nomes como Adam
Lambert, Chris Colfer, Jodie Foster ou Lance Bass? O site da revista
pediu para os internautas votarem e também comentarem as ausências
sentidas.
