When I first interviewed fashion model and businessman Shar Devon for our video podcast he had just won the Chicago Mr. Gay 2008 competition. Shar took the crown from our buddy and FOF fave Erik […]

    Goooood Luck, Mr. Devon with the…

    U.S.A.

    Mr. Gay!

    Wonderful show as always folks. And Ace boon coon means BFF, something along that line.

  2. Great Guy says:

    GREAT SHOW!!!
    I have to agree with you with the issues with the gay community.
    As a young black gay man, there are so many misconceptions about black men.
    Thanks for bringing this topic up.

    I LOVE THE FOF!

    Another Greate Show guys.

    Congratulations Shar!!! I can’t wait for you to win nationals, and then internationals.

    A couple times in the interview I had a “Reverend DJ” flashback.

    Ace boon coon = partner in crime

    Our friends have a cat named Coretta!

    Next year, we’ll have to head over to Montrose Beach to check out the scene… after Pride this year we saw people walking that way, it was awesome to see such an out-and-proud black crowd passing by our place.

    It was great to hear Shar on the show — I have been missing the FOF Rainbow coalition!
    Hang in there, sweetie, and true love will come your way…

  5. Being in a black/white longterm relationship, the interracial topic is always interesting to me. Last night me and the bf had dinner with the only other B/W longterm couple I know, the B part of which is from the US. Over here (Amsterdam) I think that there isn’t much of a divide along these lines in the gay scene, although when it comes to relationships, most people tend to go for someone who could be their clone in looks and personality. In general we do still have areas in the city that are predominantly black, white or Arabic but things are not as divided as they are in New York it seems. In my friends’ experience B & W might work together but live seperately in separate parts of the city. Not as much social mingling going on as movies and series want us to believe… And that’s just a shame, because apart from being very politically correct, interracial love and sex is just plain frikkin’ HOT!

    Chicago is a very segregated city. So it’s reflected in the Chicago gay community as well… I’m always interested to hear more about this. When I first moved here, I was working in a 99% black neighborhood (see the segregated part?! wow) and living with 2 black roommates. I loved being the odd one out for a change. Then I went back to school at the art institute (where Chicago’s large black population is NOT represented in the student body, which I think is deplorable) and now I’m back in predominantly-white-land… sigh. I’d love to see more people from the black community on FOF, to hear about their experiences… Vernita Gray?

  7. Shar is sooo Hot!!! Woo!

  8. The show was very entertaining however I am confused on exactly what a person does to become Mr. Gay. Obviously it is not English. Ask should not be pronounced like axe! What is up with the horrible grammar. I know Mr. Gay needs to be hot but can he be hot and well versed?
