The Cast

Homogeneous is the same. Homogenius is Homorazzi.

Once upon a time, group of gays became the best of friends. Through the parties, judgieness, gossip, and fun, this inclusive entourage of homos became known for their dynamic bond, and drama. Join them as they invite you into their group of friends, sharing their personal and joint experiences, and their view on the world and its happenings from each from their own, uncensored pursepective.

CAST: In order of importance (just kidding / not really):

Donovan – “The Meticulous One”: Formerly the VP of a Top 20 kids/teen online magazine property, Donovan brings his online expertise for this project. Donovan and Brian have been together for almost a decade! Who knew relationships could last this long. He’s the one taking the pictures, with a library consisting of thousands of photos – he’s got dirt on all of us. Check out his Q&A questionnaire. Follow him on Twitter!

Patrick – “The Forgetful One”: Patrick is the co-founder of Homorazzi, along with Donovan, but he ventured into the entrepreneurial world a few years back when he and his ex Jamie (and ex Homorazzi cast member) opened up a skincare & grooming store called masc. He has two chiweiner dogs named Max & Lucy. Patrick’s boyfriend Tyrell is one of the CW Hellcats cheerleaders.. Check out his Q&A questionnaire. Follow him on Twitter!

Topher – ” The Indie One”: Topher is very wise in the ways of the web and is always on top of the latest indie tracks. Topher accepted a position with his company in Europe that has taken him all the way to Amsterdam for an indefinite period of time. This means he is the face of Homorazzi in Europe! Topher was the vegetarian of the cast until recently, when he ate meat for the first time in 10 years!Check out his Q&A questionnaire.

Redd- “The Feisty One”: Redd, with not one but two D’s, knows his fashion, trends, & all things fabulous. He has a very cute wiener … dog named Dani that he’s often seen walking as he gets his morning latte at CooCoo Coffee. Everyone knows Redd and he’s got quite the stamina when it comes to going out and having a great time. When Pride comes along, rest assured he’s worked his butt off and is Reddy to flaunt his chiseled abs. Have you seen his tattoo? Check out his Q&A questionnaire. Follow him on Twitter!

Jonny Staub - “The Social One”: Jonny is Canada’s first “out” radio personality on Vancouver’s number one hit music station – The Beat 94.5.

Adam- “The Witty One”: Adam is working towards his master’s in counseling psychology, whilst still living above the garage at his parents place. He’s seen every movie and watches all of the latest and greatest TV shows. He’s into OLDERS and always has the most elaborate jaw-dropping stories to tell when it comes to his personal life – which is also his ongoing quest to find a long term boyfriend. Adam plays soccer year round with Patrick, and the two call themselves BFFF’s. Check out his Q&A questionnaire.

Brian – “The Pretty One”: As mentioned above, Brian and Donovan have been together for almost 10 years. Brian is the cook in the relationship, and is very meticulous when it comes to cleanliness and order. He works in management at a bank and after a soccer injury last year that kept him from working for 6 months, Brian has taken up swimming, with access to a great pool in his building. Recently, Brian has gained a reputation in the group for unexpectedly coming out of left field with rude insults or comments about friends, and this has been termed as “Getting Drew’d”. You got drew’d. Check out his Q&A questionnaire. Follow him on Twitter!

Kevin – “The Friendly One”: Kevin is always smiling and laughing, which is quite infectious amongst our friends. He stands strong in his beliefs and opinions and is not afraid to back them up and/or vocalize them. A year ago, Kevin was promoted in his company and was relocated to Canada’s biggest city, Toronto. In his spare time, Kevin can be found singing in a choir, curling, or bustin’ a move on the dancefloor. Check out his Q&A questionnaire. Follow him on Twitter!

Dan – “The Dancing One”: Daniel / Dan works in advertising and knows how to sell himself with his moves on the dancefloor. He’s in a long term relationship with fast food and not ashamed of it. Check out his Q&A questionnaire.

Tommy – ” The Shameless One”: Tommy has his own event production company, called TFD Presents, conquering the biggest events at Gay Pride here in Vancouver. His job is kind of like the guy from party monster, Homo Alone Macaulay Culkin, minus all the drugs and better looking than that weirdo. Everyone knows him, and his alter drag ego Syren, in the gay scene. Tommy tells it like it is and doesn’t put up with bullshit. He’s easily excitable and at a party he, like Donovan, is easily 10 decibel levels above everyone else. Check out his Q&A questionnaire. Follow him on Twitter!

Rich – “The Ginger One”: When it comes to politics, Rich knows his stuff so be sure you don’t get Ginger Snapped. Recently single, he’s outspoken, always looking for a good time, and has a thirst for adventure in life – evident in his Wonder Woman twirl. Check out his Q&A questionnaire. Follow him on Twitter!

Stephen – “The Green One”: This fifth generation Vancouverite enjoys staying active by running on the seawall, curling with Donovan and Brian, and dancing the night away with everyone! With a background in geography and a keen interest in sustainability and public policy, this self-confessed ‘news junkie’ loves finding new ways to reduce his ecological footprint and tries (too hard sometimes) to be ‘Switzerland’ when it comes to conflicts between friends.Check out his Q&A questionnaire. Follow him on Twitter!

Nic – “The Indulgent One”: Nic was the first addition to the original cast members. He had been sending in Saturday Submissions (check them out here) regularly and is definitely a great addition to the cast. He loves to cook, drink wine, and is always up for a scary movie. He can sing & play guitar too! Nic (the night owl) works at one of Vancouver’s hottest nightclubs.Check out his Q&A questionnaire.

Alex – “The Classy One”: Alex is the most recent addition to the Homorazzi cast, the second addition to the original cast members. This “A-Gay” from Seattle had sent in a few Saturday Submissions and caught our attention. Alex recently moved to L.A. for an exciting new job which is keeping him very busy. Lucky for the cast, we get to stay with him when we go down there…right Alex?Check out his Q&A questionnaire.

FORMER CAST MEMBERS:

Saleem – “The Mischievous One”: Saleem can be described as mischievous, friendly, and sensitive. This techy took a year off a couple years ago to go traveling in Australia and has since re-integrated himself into the real world of rain, cold, and 9-5’s. Check out his Q&A questionnaire. Follow him on Twitter!<

Dave – “The Beefiest One”: Dave recently entered the work world, is dating another Beefcake in Seattle, and owns a lot of Louis Vuitton. He’s opinionated, loyal, and although he’s big on style and brand names, he’s is an avid eBay shopper so doesn’t shell full price. He and his BF can get a little wild on the weekends, but keep each other in check. Check out his Q&A questionnaire.Reason Evicted: Went to rehab for his online shopping addiction.

Landon – “The Because One”: Landon is Patrick’s roommate. He is the youngest one in the bunch and is very good about reminding people of that. He’s obsessed with working out and is an up and coming DJ in VanCity. He’s the Because One because he always has a reason why…because…! Check out his Q&A questionnaire. Reason Evicted: Wouldn’t stop writing everything in capital letters.

Jamie – “The South African One”: Jamie owns masc with Patrick, and they were together for 6 years. They have shared custody of their adorable Chiwieners – Max & Lucy. Jamie is very meticulous and thrives off of spreadsheets, order, and cleanliness. This semi-vegetarian is very routine, works out regularly, and is very healthy. He comes across as very sophisticated, which he is, but he will catch you off guard with his wit and sexual humor. Reason Evicted: Stole Jonny’s self tanner. Check out his Q&A questionnaire.

Jake – “The Political One” – Jake used to live in Seattle, WA but moved to Washington, DC to pursue a career in politics- his passion. He dated Patrick for a while (long distance) back when he lived in Seattle, but among other factors, the back & forth cross border relationship eventually took it’s toll on the relationship. He (like Rich) is a Ginger and this fiery red head never backs down in a debate, so you better have your ducks in a row. Reason Evicted: Threw his mic into the hot tub.
