Fantasy Draft: The 2015 Freedom Reigns Team

There are five men on the 2015 Freedom Reigns team, and surprise surprise, the hot new models score high points with The Underwear Expert. Freedom Reigns excels as a sexy, sporty brand thanks to their All-American design and taste in sex appeal. Count on them to be masculine, but far from a stick in the mud. Think locker room exhibitionist, with a sexy sense of style.

Michael, Andy, Sam, David. B, and David Rest each embody the brand’s aesthetic. They’ve got a nice balance as the new Freedom Reigns team — three blonde studs and two tanned hotties, both of whom happen to be inked. Because what’s hotter and more All-American than the boys next door and their “bad boy” friends? When they get together and show off their new briefs — that’s what.

The last time we saw Freedom Reigns, their FW14 Collection had neon seams against nearly neural colors, almost dark pastels. The new spring collection rocks the highlighter colors harder. A bright pink brief is brighter still with a white waistband and seams. And there’s no missing the rest of the new waistband’s design. Our lucky number seven after counting down six abs, the brand name is printed in neon green and balanced by a thin red stripe.

Oscar Isaac Can Dance Like Travolta, Matt Bomer Is The Ken Doll, Lily Tomlin Is An Amazing Lesbian

A theater in Sandpoint, Idaho has cancelled screenings of the comedy-mystery Wild Canaries due to “inappropriate content.” The film contains no nudity and no sex scenes, but it does have two lesbian main characters so…

Barry Diller has long been one of the entertainment industry’s most powerful men. Now former New York Times Magazine writer Andrew Goldman claims he got the boot for merely asking Diller’s wife, fashion entrepreneur Diane von Furstenberg, about rumors her husband is gay.

The Little Prince – International Trailer 2 by Orangefr

An animated film of The Little Prince, Antoine de Saint Exupery’s story that’s much-loved by children of all ages, will premiere at the Cannes film festival next month. From the look of this trailer, it’s going to be special.

Lily Tomlin has had an extraordinary career, which includes classic films such as Nashville and Nine to Five, and stage shows like The Search for Signs of Intelligent Life in the Universe. But the beloved funny lady wonders what would’ve happened if she’d come out earlier. “I wonder if I’d come out on that ’75 cover of Time if I would have had as long a career as I’ve had, because it would have been an inopportune time to make such a grand statement,” she told HuffPo.

What’s the hottest role for actresses in Hollywood right now? Would you believe it’s playing lesbian tennis great Billie Jean King? There are three films about her fabled televised match in 1973 against the late Bobby Riggs set to star Emma Stone, Elizabeth Banks and the role opposite a third film with Will Ferrell as Riggs has yet to be cast.

Everyone’s favorite Ken Doll is back. Matt Bomer‘s poster for Magic Mike XXL has been revealed. The film will hit theaters July 1. Watch the trailer here.

We’re longtime fans of Oscar Isaac here at Queerty, but now we’re really smitten as the sexy actor proves he’s a regular Travolta on the dance floor in his new film Ex Machina.

And we’re just going to post the video above without comment.

Michele Bachmann: The Rapture Is Coming And It's Obama's Fault
Michele Bachmann says the rapture is coming, thanks to President Barack Obama’s policies on Iran’s nuclear program and marriage equality.

In a radio interview last week, Bachmann, the former Minnesota Republican congresswoman, told “End Times” host Jan Markell, “We need to realize how close this clock is getting to the midnight hour.”

“We in our lifetimes potentially could see Jesus Christ returning to earth and the rapture of the church,” Bachmann said. “We see the destruction, but this was a destruction that was foretold.”

Bachmann cited the Obama administration’s nuclear negotiations with Iran as a cause. The U.S. and five partner nations are discussing a deal with Iran that would prevent the country from developing or obtaining nuclear weapons.

“We are literally watching, month by month, the speed move up to a level we’ve never seen before with these events,” Bachmann said. “Barack Obama is intent. It is his number one goal to ensure that Iran has a nuclear weapon.”

Later in the interview, Bachmann again tied her rapture prediction to Obama’s foreign policy.

“If you look at the president’s rhetoric, and if you look at his actions, everything he has done has been to cut the legs out of Israel and lift up the agenda of radical Islam,” she said.

Obama has said repeatedly that the goal of the nuclear talks with Iran is to prevent the country from developing a nuclear weapon.

Bachmann also blamed abortion and gay marriage, arguing that God is punishing the United States for “embracing a pagan view.”

“Any nation that accepts God and his principles is blessed, and those who push away are cursed. That’s what we’re seeing happen to the United States,” she said. “We will suffer the consequences as a result.”

Some Christians believe those who are saved will be transported to heaven just before armageddon, which they call the rapture.

This is not the first time Bachmann has predicted extreme consequences from the Iran deal. Earlier this month, she claimed the deal would lead to “World War III.” And in a Facebook post, she compared Obama to Andreas Lubitz, the pilot who crashed the Germanwings airliner into the French Alps in March.

Giorgio Armani Doesn’t Like When Men Dress Too Gay: “A Man Has To Be A Man.”

We’ll admit, the news cycle is remarkably short and people’s memories are even shorter, but how is it possible that famed designer (and billionaire) Giorgio Armani could forget the backlash his fellow Italian designers Dolce and Gabbana faced over their divisive comments about gays? It’s only been a month — what kind of Bulgari-shit is this?

In an interview with The Sunday Times Magazine, Armani, 80, who himself is openly gay, criticized femininity in gay style (Russell Tovey, anyone?), saying:

“A homosexual man is a man 100 per cent. He does not need to dress homosexual. When homosexuality is exhibited to the extreme – to say: ‘Ah, you know I’m homosexual,’ – that has nothing to do with me. A man has to be a man.”

We’re not calling for a witch hunt or anything, but what is it with people taking their personal taste and making broad, damaging generalizations lately?

Last month, Dolce and Gabbana came under fire for saying, “We oppose gay adoptions. The only family is the traditional one. No chemical offsprings and rented uterus: life has a natural flow, there are things that should not be changed.”

In the same interview in which Armani said that “a man has to be a man,” he also gave his opinions on some other trends in the gay community.

“I don’t like muscle boy,” he said. “Not too much gym! I like somebody healthy, somebody solid, who looks after his body but doesn’t use his muscles too much.”

We agree with you there, Giorgio. But that’s a long way off from saying “men shouldn’t be too muscly,” which seems to be the tone of the previous quote.

Here’s a photo of Armani in a very manly white scrote tote, just because:
