OUT magazine’s Alex Wilburn posted on their blog Popnography today a recap of a recent gay-themed episode of ‘Degrassi’ in which he remarks on the issues of coming out in high school for gay character Riley, who is the star football player for Degrassi High.

Wilburn notes, in relation to gay society today, that ” we assume gay teens are naturally accepting,” eventually building up to the fact that in today’s LGBT society gays are hating their own kind more than ever. Who’s more straight? Who’s more gay? Can someone be more-or-less gay?

He then calls into action and ask that gays “stop dividing into groups or using terms like ‘gayface’” in which he referenced Popwired’s post of a new kid on Gossip Girl that we thought looked gay.

Did we make a slip-up by using the term “gay face” instead of identifying the character by his real name or some other snarky term? Sure, we did. But does Popwired saying “Gay face” really go against the gay agenda and destroy future hopes of gays getting along together? Not at all, that’s just how we do stuff here — randomly!

For us to say “gay face”, it just merely means that they’re handsome and well moisturized.

What do you think, were we in the wrong?

New Moon’s teen heartthrob Taylor Lautner, 17, grace the cover of the latest issue of ‘Rolling Stone’ magazine.

If this image of Lautner in a wet t-shirt doesn’t get you going, then the subhead “Taylor Lautner’s Wild Ride” should at least give you something to squawk over. [The Frisky]

Lautner tells Rolling Stone’s Neil Strauss he’s never smoked pot, never tried cigarettes and never snorted a line of cocaine in the new issue dated December 10, 2009, on stands tomorrow.

I knew being a skanky whore wasn’t such a bad thing! My momma lied to me! When push comes to shove, you’ll have to start shoving back — in the right places. DNA magazine has scoured the planet for months looking for an upside to the global financial crisis. They finally think they’ve found it: white-collar rent boys. Their latest issue features stories on rent boys whom explains the pros and cons of being a slut.

INSIDE THE ISSUE:

Have you ever refused a client?
I have left a client who was dirty and needed to shower. He was insulted. Poor hygiene is not something I do, even for money.

What has been the most unexpected thing you’ve found being a rent boy?
I can’t believe that I get so much cash for having sex with a really horny guy.

Do you think the transition back to unpaid sex would be difficult?
Not really. Maybe one day the tables will turn and I will be paying for it. If you have either too much sex or too much money, you should share it with others, no?

What was the first time you escorted like?
An escort friend of mine brought me on a date with a client who was a voyeur. He wanted to watch us have sex. He gave us each 300 pounds and I was hooked!

What do you like most about this line of work?
It’s new for me and it’s easy money – that’s the main thing I like. The pay is high and the hours are short. You never know who you will meet next… I travel in luxury and I see inside some really nice real estate.

Good girl Mandy Moore got her sexy-naughty on for a photoshoot with Details magazine. Moore spoke about her husband (Ryan Adams), pop music, her fear of germs, and her love for milkshakes.

Read more after the jump.

Collaborating with husband Ryan Adams:
“When it comes to the possibility and potential to collaborate, or to be able to run decisions or ideas by someone . . . it’s nice to have that. I feel very lucky, you know?”

On oop music:
“I was just told to show up and what to sing. . . . That was late-nineties pop music for you.” Adding how she was constantly compared to other pop divas at that time, “I found myself in the company of Britney Spears and Christina Aguilera, who had really quality music, much more so than mine was”

On being a germ-phobe:
“I’m a germ-phobe when I meet a lot of people or shake a lot of hands. I always have hand sanitizer and alcohol swabs … so I can sort of go back and forth between the two.”

Her new album “Amanda Leigh”:
“The music is all a reflection of me now, not somebody else’s choices,” adding “If people don’t like the music, then they don’t like me—and that’s quite all right”

Milkshakes and fries:
“It’s okay to have a milk shake. . . . It is! Whatever! Who fu*king cares?“

Moore’s new album “Amanda Leigh” hit stores on May 26.

Oh lord, Zac Efron is so frickin’ hot! The 21-year-old actor is on the cover up GQ’s May ‘09 issue which also features him in an editorial shoot. Two big shoots in  less than two months, you go Efron! Thank goodness this photoshoot didn’t involve any titties like the ‘Interview‘ mag.

Who’s going to go watch ‘17 Again’?

The girls over at Switzerland’s ‘Display’ sent us some very hot pics that will be featured in their upcoming issue, due to hit newsstands April 3.

The April issue features an interview with Jürg Koller, chief of Europride09, who discusses the 40th Anniversary of Europride, and then jumps to talking about the radical church fundamentalists who want to demonstrate against gays at Europride.

Ah, how the world just loves the Phelps’ family.

Obviously, the best part of all is the man candy. Check ‘em out after the jump.

They also did a write-up on different ways you can help out our beautiful planet and showcase fashion spread shot by photographer Vincent Dilio.

“We took a hike in the Hollywood Hills for our green-inspired photo spread, and inside our April cover guy Bernardo shares his secrets for staying in-shape, as well as his personal story about going from an Argentinean rugby team to the runways of Gucci and soon, your living room.”

More pics after the jump plus behind-the-scene shots here.

She is now dating one of the models, Jesus Luz, whom she met while sleeping in Rio. Who knew Madonna could real ‘em in that easily? Madonna demanded Jesus get naked before even kissing him!

Oh, and spare me the biblical crap comments. You know I would never really mention religion on this blog. God forbid I ever understand religion, let alone my own. Enjoy the rest of the pics.

This issue features the city of ZÜRICH and their life long dream of wanting to be a gay-hotspot.

Of course, the best part of the magazine: the sexy men of England — especially Caio, pictured left. See the shots after the jump.

The magazine hit newsstands January 30.

The gay little spies of MIB also notes that she’ll appear with some uber hot Brazilian male models, two of which are pictured above. On the left is Felipe Anibal, and the other two are shots of Miro Moreira in D&G’s spring 2007 campaign and Armani Exchange’s spring 2008 underwear ads.

If I ever get a divorce I’m following her purposiveness to get laid by a Brazilian.

Well this isn’t anything new — or utterly surprising. Heartthrob Nick Lachey in an interview with “Elle” Magazine said that he likes to cross dress.  Okay, well, maybe that wasn’t quite how he placed it.

From Dallas Examiner
[Nick Lachey] revealed that he used to get turned on by putting on her [Jessica Simpson] shoes and walking around in them. “It was sort of a kinky thing we liked to get into,” he said. He also admitted to enjoying dirty talk, “I haven’t even realized my full dirty talk potential,” he said. “I think there’s some greater moments out there for me.”

Oh talk dirty to me bad boy, you know you wanna.

Shame the magazine’s only sold in Brazil, France and Portugal – we silly Americans will just have to get by with what we can get. Not that we’re complaining!

Amen to that bro. I wonder how a ‘Texan’ magazine would look like. We would all be posing with cheeseburgers :D Super hot images after the jump + video.

GQ, orignally known as Gentlemen’s Quarterly, is a monthly men’s magazine focusing upon fashion, style, and culture for men, through articles on food, movies, fitness, sex, music, travel, sports, technology, and books. It is generally perceived as upscale and more sophisticated than lad mags, such as Maxim or FHM.

Do straight men actually read GQ?

The duo chat to reFRESH Magazine about their life on the soap, being the world’s most popular gay couple, dealing with fame and what they think of each other off set. They also had a hot shoot done by photographer Stefan Menne. Check it out after the jump!

The mag hits newsstand August 28th.

Jo on Fans
“When I played Olli for the first time for example there was an older male fan who wrote me long letters and wanted to invite me to go on holidays with him. I always politely declined. But he didn’t want to hear it and kept on inviting me. In one letter he even asked me if I wanted to marry him and asked me where I live, because he wanted to move close. That was a little bit too much for me and so I stopped answering the letters.”

Thore on Playing It Gay
“A very important question was if I could make it convincing….I considered the storyline as a challenge and a big chance to learn and grow as an actor.”

Jo on Media Attention
“Of course it’s brilliant that our story now becomes known all over the world. It’s not the case though that I cannot go outside without being ‘attacked’ from some paparazzi. In Cologne, people are used to meeting ‘actors from TV’, so in this respect I can live here comparatively undisturbed..”

Thore on Gay Characters
“I gained inspiration from the movie Brokeback Mountain. I know that might be a little exaggerated but I try to aim high. After watching that movie I was surprised in a positive way. The movie showed how realistically and beautifully you can portray the love between two men, without making prejudiced viewers… “I’m not gay” – that was one of the most beautiful sentences in the whole movie. The two characters love each other and it doesn’t matter what they call it.”

The Vogue Italia’s All Black Issue has caused uproars over the internet for the past months after news of its release spread. Major magazine distributors across Europe have said that they expect the Italian Vogue magazine that will feature all black models to be the worst selling edition ever.

Facebook and MySpace groups were created to promote the book.

One member was quoted saying “Black is beauty and everyone knows that surely its gonna sell.” We’re not sure how “black is beauty” promote sales, but whatever works.

Back to business. Tyra is beautiful as always and the chic to the left of her is super cute… but what the hell is up with that tranny on the right and her Little Mermaids — under the sea — necklace?

Scroll down a little bit more and you’ll find their sexual preferences which ranges from “I need oral and anal sex all the time” to “piggybacking” — whatever that means.

Out.com ask its readers if Man Hunt has possibly ruin they Gay Culture — a culture in which we now have to become part-time porno actors or strip in front of the camera just to get any attention. Well, you guys anyways, I have a boyfriend :) Read the very interesting, but lenghy, editorial at Out.com

Here! Networks is pleased to announce that, upon its final purchase of the LPI Media properties from PlanetOut Inc., it will name Jon Barrett as Editor in Chief of The Advocate and Advocate.com, the world’s leading news and entertainment destinations for the LGBT community.

“Over the past 40 years The Advocate has become the publication of record for the LGBT community,” said Paul Colichman and Stephen P. Jarchow, CEO and Chairman of here! Networks, respectively.

“We are thrilled that Jon Barrett will bring his talent to this important brand and continue the historic tradition of The Advocate. Barrett will provide the magazine with a provocative new perspective around the critical issues affecting the lives of the LGBT community as well as expand Advocate.com into a definitive, daily online news source. ”

Stockwell will continue writing for The Advocate as Editor at Large, in addition to story assignments for sister publications Out and Out Traveler.

With over 15 years experience as a journalist and in publishing, Barrett most recently served as the Features Director for O at Home, an Oprah Magazine published by Hearst.

Barrett has worked extensively as a freelance writer and has been published in titles including Cosmopolitan, Glamour, People, Teen People and Paper.

Barrett will report directly to Aaron Hicklin, Editorial Director of Out and The Advocate. “In these extraordinary times for the LGBT community, I can’t think of a better steward for a magazine that continues to chronicle, and advance, our struggle for equality,” said Hicklin. “Jon Barrett is a proven talent who brings with him experience, perspective, and passion. I look forward to working together.”

Gus Mag’s newest issue is all about Fashion and Hot beauties! Just looking through these guys will totally entice you to pick up the latest mag issue. Curious? there’s more hotties after the jump!

Gorgeous model Brad sizzled in this month’s cover, he admits that he’s a sexy idealist in an engaging interview with Miguel Montesinos but in my book, he’s not only a sexy idealist, but rather a hot reality!

The covers have been shot by leading fashion photographers based both in the UK and USA (Gavin Harrison, Robert Mendolia, Wander Aguiar and Greg Vaughan) and feature some of the hottest male models from both sides of the Atlantic.

Highlights inside the 50th edition include: a special focus on dance, part two of fashionable and secret history of gay men’s clothes, a new series on Hollywood’s Greats and a focus on the forthcoming exhibition at the Handel House Museum in London. New York interior designer Dane Bailey reports from the US on interior trends and there are interviews with jewellery designer Hannah Martin and global accessories king, Robert Tateossian. All My Children star Aiden Turner (and former reFRESH cover) and Dantes Cove actor Jon Fleming both strip off for the camera and we showcase the work of upcoming photographers, Wander Aguiar and Eric Sposito.

Founded in 2002, reFRESH was originally produced as a monthly title, before re-defining itself as a coffee table title produced alternate monthly in 2005. The new, larger format struck a chord with gay men around the world with its blend of culture and the arts, property and interiors, fashion, photography and travel.

“Normally Vogue is all about what’s hip and what’s not and features a stunning amazon of a woman on the cover who is associated with cutting edge fashion,� the Daily Star quoted one fashion fan as saying.

“Instead we get a modestly talented dancer who likes clothes and who was lucky enough to engineer her way into one of the biggest girl groups in the world,� the fan added.

Meanwhile, 74-year-old comedian Joan Rivers calls Victoria Beckham “arrogant�.

“I dislike Victoria Beckham. The arrogance when she walks into a room is astonishing,� said the comedian.

On a better note, want to see David Beckham in his speedo in France?

“I didn’t think I could do a show about working out,” he says of time when he joined the cast. “I didn’t know if it was my passion. I did the show really because they said they would feature me cooking. So I said, why not?” With all the cooking involved Jesse started to gain around 50 lbs! Check out Instinct’s April issue to find out how Jesse eventually overcame his personal weight issues by carving out a career helping others achieve a healthier lifestyle on Work Out.

“Here’s a snippet from the GQ article:

Like Denzel Washington, Bana has a powerfully masculine, intimidating physical presence and brings an epic-heroic dimension to his roles that’s rare in recent movies. A hallmark of his acting is an ability to be at once courteous and nitrogen cold; you can see it throughout his career, notably in The Other Boleyn Girl. As Henry VIII, “he’s very much the man who’s never had anybody say no to him,� says his costar Natalie Portman. It’s an unsettling quality to experience in person, as I discover when, excited by his willingness to speak so candidly about Hulk, I ask once too often about it and Bana announces: “Tomorrow, there will be no Hulk questions.�

“I’m changed,” Calderon tells Instinct Editor In Chief, Mike Wood. “My perception has changed. I didn’t give people credit — those closest to me and beyond. But I’m still the same guy. At least, I like to think I am.” You can also see the video from  his cover shoot here. Photos courtesy of Instinct Magazine for TREY CRUZ.

DNA: Are you happy for gay men to perve on you?
SB: Sure, I guess so. I try not to think about it too much! Girls read this magazine too, right?

Yea… lots of girls read gay magazines.

Brandon says “Chippendales guys are often pegged as being gay. And they’re not. And I think this will clear the slate.” He continues, “They’re all straight, but we would do anything for each other and that’s what I really love about working here. They don’t view my be gay as a negative thing at all.”

Congrats on coming out Brandon! Believe us, you won’t have a hard time finding a guy ;-) More photos after the jump of Brandon and a peek of Instinct’s fashion editorial shot by photographer by Troy Phillips & Akimitsu Sadoi.

ON THE WEB: Queerty reports that Details Mag recently dumped their controversial “Gay or -” column… and they’re thinking Zac Efron is making up for their lost content, if you get the drift. What do you think? Is Zac Efron gay?

The gay glossy includes a feature on nude yoga, how to avoid gay gym body, and of course a generous spread of gorgeous guys dressed and undressed to impress. OUT Swimsuit issue hit newsstands Jan 15.

As a custom with every website we decided to follow suite and create a list of the BEST OF TREY CRUZ 2007 featuring the 10 best post, in our opinion, of the year. :-) Thanks Sean and Melvin for your help!

Obviously taking top place was the hotties at the University of Texas at Arlington. What’s hotter than shirtless frat boys rolling around in mud?

Our next all time favorite has to be the photos of Vince Azzopardi shot by photographer and friend Dylan Rosser. Believe it or not but this young hottie is only 19! We’ve been in contact with him so watch out for more of his work soon!

You all know who he is… the uber hot boyfriend of Reichen Lehmkuhl. Ryan Barry is the new Armani Underwear model and he recently displayed his manly pride on the issue of DNA.

The infamous Michael Biserta and his really famous firehose took the gay world by storm. He recently jumped into the modeling world and we’ve been following him at every step. Michael is a great friend of ours and we wish him the best of luck.

There’s nothing more sexy than playgirl model Leighton Stultz. Hunky Stultz is the host of Connex 24.7 which focuses on delicious male fitness. Check out his hot neighbor Christmas video.

Boy Culture is one of best produced and directed gay movie that I had ever seen. In my opinion it was even better than Brokeback Mountain…

On Display Men snagged another hottie, Michael Edward, from the 2008 Ripped Genes calendar. My. oh my, what ripped genes he has.

Charity sure does has its perks… Naked For A Cause is no exception.

College had to pay off sometime in your life right? Well, in the November issue of Playgirl it pays off in more than 9 ways .

Last, but certainly not the least… The best reality show of all time on the Discovery network, is Last One Standing. A bunch of muscular men boucing around in a tribal walk with their chest painted surely does has its appeal.

We wish you all a safe and happy New Years and look forward to TREYCRUZ.COM’s return January 8th.

AXN Magazine introduces the summer solstice with former Abercrombie model, Chad Raile. I don’t know about you guys, but I’m really bad at anything relating to geography. I’ve always sat and wondered if the models were “belittled” during the freezing beach photoshoot. This whole time it has never click to me that it’s actually the opposite season down under where AXN is based :-) (what do ya know… live and learn from a gay magazine.) Check out more photos of Chad Raile, shot by our photographer friend, Ronald N. Tan after the hump jump. Don’t forget to check out the FREE online mag for more risque goodies.

It’s been quite a while since we posted about our great friend Zoran Trifunovic and it’s so great to hear that he’s doing so well. Just to refresh your memory… Zoran was the photographer for the infamous reFresh September 2007 issue featuring uber hotness Petar Perovic. Today we revisit two of Zoran’s past work that I truly admire, along with two of his newest editorials for FAAR Magazine entitled CRUEL INTENTIONS. The whole concept of the issue is Play. It’s amazing how this incredible photographer can turn something sexy into a work of art. Check em out below. Photos courtesy of Zoran for TREY CRUZ.
