For our Olympic moment, a story from the cutthroat world of competitive curling.  That’s a sport where two teams attempt to manipulate a granite stone on the ice by swirling some kind of mop.  Picture bringing your Swiffer to the local ice rink.  The incident in question took place during a nail-biter between Canada and Sweden.  One reporter captured the drama this way: “The Swedes believed one of the Canadians was repeatedly double-touching some of his stones.”  And you thought Heated Rivalry was intense!  Marc Kennedy from the Canadian team wasn’t taking the Swedish accusations lightly.  “I don’t like being accused of cheating after 25 years on tour and four Olympic Games.  So I told him where to stick it.” 

Our Ask Billy question came from Mark in Boston: “During Bad Bunny’s halftime show at about the four-minute mark, you see two guys grinding up against each other behind the open door of a white pickup truck.  I thought maybe they might be famous (or semi-famous).  Maybe models or porn stars.  Do you know who they are?”

Mark wasn’t the only one who picked up on this.  Moments after the camera panned past these two men dancing inside an open truck door, the clip went viral.  I think the first person to post the meme was Louisa Jacobson from The Gilded Age, who captioned it “Important!”  One of the men is Dan Santiago, a 30-year-old dancer from NYC who previously performed with Bad Bunny on Saturday Night Live.  “There were a lot of intentionally fluid pairings in the show reflecting the sense of unity the show was trying to convey,” says Dan.  He added that both he and his dancing partner, Igor Farina, are straight, but they “feel honored to represent the LGBTQ community.”  “To me, being part of this moment wasn’t about performing queerness; it was about freedom and representing a community that deserves to be seen.”  And see it you will on BillyMasters.com.

When I’m trying to squeeze my Balzac into Ashton’s pink Speedo, it’s time to end another column.  If you wanna check out the latest gossip, sit right down on Juliette Lewis and head on over to www.BillyMasters.com – the site that never leaves a stone unturned.  If you’ve got a question, send it along to Billy@BillyMasters.com and and I promise to get back to you before Dan or Igor turn up on Dancing with the Stars.  Until next time, remember, one man’s filth is another man’s bible.
