In un mondo che stila classifiche un giorno sì e l’altro pure, anche Out Magazine ha voluto partecipare alla fiera della chart, elencando i gay più potenti dell’Universo conosciuto. E non perché in grado di sparare raggi glitter dalle chiappe, ma perché terribilmente influenti, ricchi, politicamente cazzuti e mediaticamente esplosivi.
65 i nomi partoriti, ovviamente TUTTI gay dichiarati, con una Top10 particolarmente scontata ed un primato a dir poco inattaccabile. Ovvero Alfonso Signorini? Beh va beh, anche no.
Perché una volta morto Steve Jobs, la APPLE è UFFICIALMENTE finita tra le mani di Tim Cook, CEO Apple e da tempo omosessuale a mezzo stampa. Tanto da meritarsi il primato RAINBOW. Dopo il saltino, ovviamente, la lista al gran completo.
