DNA Magazine | #294 – The Sports Issue
Time to get hot and sweaty! This month, it’s all about sportsmen – from the grit and grunt of The Bingham Cup to our medal-winning Olympic gays! We chat with Aussie Olympic hopefuls Campbell Harrison (climbing), Jacob Despard (sprinter), and Shaun Connor (sailing). We check out Pride House at the Paris Olympics and, of course, feature some cool sports gear – yes, grey track pants! Plus, we meet a man who explains how joining a gay sports team turned his life around.
Bodybuilder Sam Vass is on the cover. He says he’s happy with his body, and we are, too! And there are more jockstraps and posing pouches on (and off) models Miguel and Leo in our sexy sports Portfolios.
In arts and entertainment, Tim Draxl chats about taking on the role of a lifetime as Joe in Sunset Boulevard opposite Sarah Brightman. Sia is back with a brand new album of duets with pop chums like Kylie Minogue, Chaka Khan and Labrinth – we chat about that. Jamie Irrepressible tells us about “being honest about being homo in music”. And Tom Goss reveals he was ripped off by his gay lover. Naturally, he has a new album all about it!
We travel to the island nation of Sri Lanka, known for its stunning geography and excellent cuisine, but less known for its queer heritage – well, prepare to find just how gay-friendly this stunning destination really is!
There’s new music from Omar Apollo, Orville Peck, and Greg Gould; there’s new books from Chukwuebuka Ibeh and John Roberts; and more invaluable advice from our relationships expert, Vinko Anthony. Plus, we snigger at “straight pride” and get snarky about homophobic Buddhists.
All your favourite columns and regulars are back, too. Enjoy!
