So what exactly is a T-Dance, anyway? Let’s start with a spacious outside area, delicious cocktail specials and a BBQ. The records start spinning around four in the afternoon, and it all wraps up by 10:00 in the evening. A T-Dance trades the fist-pumping onslaught of the club scene for a relaxed gathering to close out the weekend. That’s what a T-Dance is about, and that’s what your gonna get!

Come and help us celebrate the age of D-I-S-C-O, Hi-NRG and House Music, sunbeams on sweaty chests, roasted meats and cold drinks. If there’s a better way to spend a sunny Sunday afternoon with friends, we haven’t heard of one. This is Schöneberg Reloaded! Here comes The Sunday T-Dance!

Both singers are competing in the ITV 1 series Popstar to Operastar.

Bell, who is openly gay himself told The Sun: “I said to him that I thought it was very brave what he’d done. I’ve told him to come to me when he wants to talk about it.

“I hope I’ll stay in touch with Joe. I’m going to say to him, ‘I’m always there if you want to talk and if you need any help or anything, I’ll be there’.

“It’s very hard to come out in the industry. It’s male-dominated – run by men who like pretty young girls. In some ways being gay makes it ten times harder.”

Last July, McElderry came out as gay after pranksters hacked into his Twitter account and outed him.

Despite denying publicly that he was gay, the incident prompted him to come out to his mother.

At the time he wrote on his website:-

“I have always been a very honest person and so it is important for me to continue to be honest.

“It has been the most amazing year so far and I feel so privileged. It’s also been a time of real self realisation and I feel as if I have grown up so much in these few months.

“There has been speculation about my sexuality in the past and I have always been honest at the time I have been asked.

“Over the past few weeks I have really had time to reflect and to realise who I am. I spoke to my friends and family about this in the last few days and it was important to do the same for you all as you have been so supportive.

“I have had nothing but support from you and many of you have been very open in saying that you will continue to support me whatever my sexuality. It is important to me to let you know first, so that you know the stories in the papers are true.
I made the choice to speak openly about this.’

“Everything is going well and I’m really happy to be able to move forward from here.”

On June 9th. Axel Hotel vibrates to the sound of Rhumba, Samba and Mambo thanks to the brilliant saxophonist Yamile Burich, along with guest singer Suhel Mahmud.

An unforgettable night to enjoy with the rhythm of Cuban music. I’ts fun time!

The administrators of the now-removed group had stated: “This page is for those of us against ALL gays, man and woman alike. Those of us who are tired of seeing them flaunt it like it is a badge of honor and acceptable. Spread it like wildfire. Suggest to all your friends.”

A comment in response to complaints from other Facebook users read: “And go ahead and report this page all you want. It attacks nobody directly and is in complete compliance with my rights as a citizen of the USA.”

Facebook’s Terms of Service state: “You will not post content that: is hateful, threatening, or pornographic; incites violence; or contains nudity or graphic or gratuitous violence.”

The New Anti-Gay Movement’s response to messages to the above effect as posted by pro-gay users was this: “By definition this page does not in any way or form count as ‘hate speech’. While there is a very thin line, this is on the proper side of it. It does not promote violence, intimidation, harassment or other misconducted sic actions. It exists solely as a point of view to be shared by others that share the same ideal. Our right to voice our feelings towards gays is no more in the wrong than your option to voice an opinion FOR it.”

Directed by Giuseppe Storelli, an Italian who lives in Barcelona since 2002, Gayxample is a fun and exciting web series, is a reflection of the daily life of seven main characters, with their joys and sorrows, loves, drama, sex , dreams, relationships and family dynamics different from the gay perspective. Barcelona is a platform for the world that aims to entertain and leave an imprint on the viewer regardless of their sexual status.

“It’s an entertainment series with a tinge of drama,” says Ivan Yanez, the actor who plays the character of Toni. “It also aims to educate on various sensitive issues, including AIDS,” reveals the director. Still, he and his group of actors-many novice-acknowledges this comic spirit.

However, Gayxample tries to go further and aware to the cause. “While there is a homophobic point of view, are necessary projects like this,” explains Babeth Ripoll, the actress who is placed on the skin of a social worker rather peculiar.

The series will air every Saturday at midday through the website of the same name and will be subtitled in English, French, German, Italian, Portuguese and Dutch to get as far as possible through the network.

With this first season, his director Giuseppe Storelli hopes to raise funds to agree a second delivery Gayxample. Thus, the production team expected to get money through the sale of the soundtrack and DVD of the series, in addition to relying on third-party donations and aid from the government. “We’re doing an incredible propaganda Barcelona and the municipal government should recognize it,” says Storelli.
