Singer Shawn Mendes opened up about some very private and intimate details of his life in a revealing new interview.
 

A picture is worth a thousand words, more or less, as I don't know how many times artist John Stofka had to write the words 'Steve Grand' to create this clever and awesome drawing of gay pop-rock singer, Steve Grand. Stofka ‏used a photo from Steve's recent shoot for OutClique Magazine as his inspiration (see below).

Jon Bon Jovi, Keith Urban and Anthony Kiedis were some of the biggest heartthrob musicians of the 1990's. Gay guys swooned over Bon Jovi's hair, Keidis' tatted, lean physique and Urban's dreamy eyes. Would you believe all three of these men are now well-over 40? Jon Bon Jovi and Anthony Kiedis are both 54 and Keith Urban is 49.

Check out recent shirtless pics below of the guys as they took time to enjoy some fun in the sun (but not together LoL).

If you're interested you might want to get yours quick before they sellout completely at: Steve Grand's Store.

Singer GAREK has a new album called, Take The King and I really enjoy the track, Stray. The lyrics (see below) really spoke to me as I'm sure it will to many other gay males no matter what age.

Ty Herndon hit the country music scene in 1995, debuting with "What Mattered Most", which took him directly to the #1 spot on Billboard’s country music chart. Ty would reach the top of the chart two more times throughout the 90’s, along with five other Top 20 hit songs. Read the Top 5 songs from openly gay country music superstar Ty Herndon.

Openly gay pop-rock singer Steve Grand is currently on tour. When he's not been busy on the road he's been out enjoying the summer sun and sharing shirtless speedo pics on his social media. Thanks for that, Steve!

Actor-singer Sebastian Castro was born Benjamin Brian Castro and raised in New York state. By the time he was 17 he was thrown out of the house by his religious parents because he was gay. Since then however, he has carved out a successful career for himself in film and music. He appeared in the 2013 Hong Kong movie, " Voyage" and had a viral hit song, "Bubble", also in 2013.

One of my favorite songs of the last few months has been the lead track from Matt Doyle's new CD, "Uncontrolled." Written by Matt Doyle and Joel Huemann the song, "Moment" reaches an emotional climax that really grabs the listener. The team behind the project were equally solid. It was produced by Derik Lee and Will Van Dyke. Appearing in the music video with Matt is the handsome, Erik Altemus.

When Steve Grand released his debut single "All-American Boy" in the summer of 2013 it became an instant classic. I love the song. I love the video. And, I love Steve Grand for being an openly gay artist right from the beginning of his career.

I'm gonna wrestle you out of them clothes,
Leave that beautiful body exposed,
And you can have my heart and my soul and my body...
Just be mine

Be my All-American boy tonight
Baby you light my fire
Its gonna be alright, alright!

Be my All-American boy tonight
Where everyday's the 4th of July
And its alright, alright
And we can keep this up till the morning light
And you can hold me deep in your eyes
And its alright, alright
Be my, be my...
Just, be my, be my...
My All-American boy

Nick Jonas in a wet t-shirt

We know how sexy Joe Jonas looks in a black muscle shirt and how he likes to work up a sweat - BUT - who knew that his little brother Nick Jonas had grown up to be such a good-looking young man!

Nick was snapped getting all wild 'n' wet at a theme park in England on Thursday.

In two months, the pop star turns 18-years-old and by the looks of things he's fast becoming quite the hunk.

LL COOL J on whether he wants to be known as an actor first or a musician first:

''I am a musician and I am an actor, but I am an artist first. I am a creator. I can appreciate, you know, Rembrandt, Bernini and Caravaggio as much as I can appreciate Mobb Deep and the Red Hot Chili Peppers. There is no difference. It's just about being an artist and just getting the opportunity to be inspired to do something. [NCIS: LA] to me is just another expression, another way to express myself creatively, and touch different people with art. Instead of creating in the studio with music that people listen to, I get a chance to walk out and live it out through someone's else's words from a script. It's a little different, and it's cool.''

White Collar star MATT BOMER on his favorite summer activity:

''Barbecue. You can take the boy out of Texas, but you can't take the Texas out of the boy. I have my own special sauce that I make, I like to get friends over, people swimming in the pool, enjoying themselves, a little alcoholic beverage. Whatever it takes to relax.''

CORINNE BAILEY RAE on playing live:

''I definitely feel like music is transformative. You're able to transcend what's going on in these three dimensions. I feel like something's coming in, and something's going through, but then something sort of stays. That's part of the reason I'm enjoying playing again. I do feel like it's doing something to my actual molecules.''

COLIN FARRELL on life in Hollywood:

''It's the schoolyard playground on steroids. The same rules apply — rules of popularity and power and ego and need and desperation and the quest for identity — just on a bigger, more aggressive, potentially more dangerous scale. I certainly can confirm the old thing about fame not making you happy. But who the f--- can't?''

BETTY WHITE on her enduring celebrity:

''Honey, I've been around so long — for 62 years! 62 years! And the kids have grown up with me, and their parents have grown up with me, and their grandparents have grown up with me! So you're just sort of a fixture. I'd go to the market, especially when we were doing Golden Girls, and the little kids would pull on my skirt and say, 'It's Rose! It's Rose!'''
