Default

Probably because he's a well-rounded housemate, level-headed, campy, funny, out of the drama and just so likeable.
In hindsight, in 2001 not that many gay people were on TV and a lot of viewers who had pre-conceived ideas about gay people, and I think he has shown such a good side to him that people may have changed their views (a little bit at least) about them. He was not a host, an artist, a singer, just him. That was big for 2001.
And he got 4,2 million votes I think in BB2. And almost 50% of the votes in UBB (though it was obvious from day 1 he would win).
