"Shear Genius" Finale: Will This Be Anthony's Final Cut?
Bravo's performance-based reality shows—Project Runway, Top Chef—have a wonderful gay aesthetic and are infinitely more appealing than most reality fare. Their newest, Shear Genius, is also a cut above the rest and tonight is the coif competition's season final. After Elton shags a short a interview with Anthony Morrison. He is the Londoner and the final three's lone gay male ... but very reluctant to discuss his sexuality on the show:
I am gay and very proud of being gay. I have lived my life openly as a gay man for most of my life. But, whether I am gay or not should have no bearing on my talent or skills. My personal life is just that—personal.
Anthony also sheds some light on, ahem, Dr. Boogie, the ghetto-fabulous hair styling queen who continually insists he is "straight" while pawing Rene Fris,
Dr. Boogie is quite a character and like no one I have ever met before. I think he had a crush on Rene but did not want to admit it. LOL. I think in another life Boogie and Rene were lovers. That's my theory and I am sticking to it.
The series finale should be interesting but would have provided more drama if Tabatha and Tyson hadn't sabotaged themselves several weeks ago. Oh well. Carry on.
Shear Genius finale airs tonight on Bravo 10P EST.
Two-Bite Interview: Anthony, Shear Genius [AE]
Some Background:
Confirmed: Michael is "Straight!" [R20]
Michael's Secomd Win [R20]
Make. It. Work. [R20]

Tyson's crappy twist got Tabatha eliminated. I was so sad.
(Says the Tabatha fanboy.)

Loves me some Dr Boogie, just over the top and fab-u-los, but straight?? Child, someone needs to find this guy a clue, and let him know straight guys don't grab bootay on television!
Anthony is just too arrogant and cocky for me. And, the other two just boring, would have like Boogie and Tabby in the final.

I saw some of the Reunion show and Dr. Boogie made some comment about getting Rene drunk and taking him home...what the hell straight dude jokes like that?!? Saturday Night Live had this skit back in the 90s 'The Effeminate Heterosexual'. I have my doubts but hey that's the Doc's deal. On the same show Daisy spoke openly about her girlfriend, which I thought was very cool. I definitely wanted Daisy or Anthony to win.
