Jim

So Jim Verraros was on American Idol season 1. I thought maybe he was family but wasnt quite sure. NOW...Not only has he come out, in a big way, hes one of the stars of one of the funniest independent gay films I have ever seen entitled, Eating Out. HYSTERICAL. It was shown here in San Francisco, a few months ago and it was so funny I was crying I was laughing so hard. The writing, the wit, the acting, the humor; all impressive. Jim was fabulous and of course it ends the way we all hoped it would, well those of us who are romantics. But my boy, JIM, has released his debut CD and I bought it tonight to support him, as well should support the openly gay entertainers and performers. HELLO!! They are representing us and we should do what we can to help them out.

Working in the gay community as an entertainer is amazing sometimes. I know from being very popular on the radio in Upstate NY and doing event after event and meeting people you have made laugh or cry. People who have taken the time out to send you an email to let you know how truly greatful they are for you just being you day after day or week after week on the radio. Its an amazing feeling being adored by people and being respected for being you and for just having fun with it.

Thank you to all those who have supported me for being me. I thank FLY92 for launching JJ GAY, well I mostly thank Brian, Ellen, and Big Ray. For believing in me and taking a chance when no one else would. They are still missed by the listeners of FLY, hopefully those big wigs realized what they let go. But again, Thanks to them for taking the risk they did and thanks to the people who listened every week and who supported JJ GAY through and through...

Hopefully its only on to bigger and...well nothing can be better then there love...
Simply nothing...
