Favourite LGBT Reality TV Stars
 
In honour of Pride Month lets discuss our favourite LGBT reality TV stars.

I want to start with Pedro Zamora;

What a hero.
A Cuban immigrant, in 1994 he was the first person ever to appear on reality TV as person living with HIV.
On the day the final episode aired of The Real World San Francisco he sadly passed.

I agree. I think Brian winning such a popular TV show really changed something for a lot of LGBTQ+ people watching but also the viewers who had hard opinions on these people. He embodies a lot of qualities and values a nice funny person should have.
I watched BB2 a little later and was so captivated by who he was and he confirmed his status again in 2010.
We had a similar candidate in France in early 2000s in the first season of French BB and it was refreshing to see. It triggered a lot of hate because "How horrible of the producers to cast such a campy/feminine acting gay on TV" but also a lot of love because he's also an amazing guy who made "gays" more tolerated and is now having a good career in entertainment over here.

I also agree with Nadia because her story and journey was incredible to witness and the whole acceptance she received was very emotional and again, a stepping stone in tolerance towards LGBTQ+ people. Big Brother had that power and that's super inspiring.

…I would also say Brian and Nadia…:love:…but also for me it would be Courtney Act as a celebrity reality TV person…as she was the person who first sparked my interest in drag race../…drag queens, a huge love of mine now…

He's really what got me properly hooked on BB, he was just hilarious

Nadia winning bb5 really was a magical moment. It was so emotional to see how she could never have imagined that she could have been the winner. Yet she was.
