STEVE GRAND FACES HUGE MEDIA BACKLASH EVEN AS NEW NAKED PHOTOS OF HIM LEAK ONLINE!!

 Just when it seemed things were going his way, now the mainstream media is lashing out at Steve Grand for not being the first openly gay male country music star, even though other people in the media already told us that he was!! In response to the backlash, leaked photos of Steve Grand’s insane bubble butt and pubic hair have surfaced online!!

No one can deny that Steve Grand was the first openly gay male to upload a music video to YouTube, but now some in the lamestream media are trying to paint Steve Grand as some kind of impostor! Hasn't he been though enough, after spending $7,000 to produce a music video with a gay porn star and uploading it to YouTube?

Here’s J. Bryan Lowder writing for Slate.com:

Let’s start off with a clarification: Steve Grand may be openly gay, but he is not (yet) a country music star. The hunky YouTube sensation recently received that misnomer from BuzzFeed and has since been covered in similar terms, on the heels of his self-financed summer love lament “All-American Boy.”

Shame on J. Bryan Lowder! How dare he insult Steve Grand, who might have a big dick. Doesn't J. Bryan Lowder realize that BuzzFeed’s decision to craft the “openly gay country music star is groundbreaking” narrative was completely well-intentioned, if one assumes that everyone involved in the production and enjoyment of country music is inherently homophobic, which in and of itself would be a horrible and bigoted implication on the part of BuzzFeed, not that they would ever do anything so dumb.

J. Byran Lowder isn't finished with hero Steve Grand yet:

Though the song is itself pleasant enough as a wistful love letter, the video is woefully out-of-tune with the times. It’s like something out of a homo smut story from before Stonewall: Lonely gay man lusts after tradey straight dude (who—bonus—he knows to have a girlfriend BECAUSE THEY ALL HANG OUT), plies him with “whiskeeeey” and homosocial jocularity while occasionally shooting the camera “Can you believe this is happening?” looks, and then finally gets him drunk enough to tolerate a kiss in a steaming lake. Here’s our big moment of truth … that comes to nothing more than the guy sobering up and disabusing Grand with a “sorry bro, no homo, gotta dance with my girl” slap on the back. Now, God forbid that all music videos have “positive,” P.C. messages—that would be a boring world. But this particular narrative of the tantalizing straight guy and lovesick queen is so hackneyed in gay culture as to be laughable.

I’m not laughing. I’m fake-crying crying because the media has decided to turn on someone with such an amazing bubble butt! Who cares if the “lonely gay homo” story is antiquated? If you want to focus on something antiquated, you could focus on an antiquated term like “all-American boy” being repeatedly used to describe a young white male with blond hair and blue eyes when in fact white males are on track to become the minority in the United States within the next decade, rendering black and Latino males with dark features just as American (if not more so) as everyone else, but I am choosing to focus on the power of music and the power of Steve Grand’s amazing abs, thank you very much, and so should you, J. Bryan Lowder.

And it’s not just evil traitor J. Bryan Lowder (who himself is openly gay—what does the “J’ stand for? Judas?), it’s also Zach Schonfeld for the Atlantic:

But is rushing to call Grand the “first openly gay male country star” not a little, err, reductive, or even inaccurate? As is often the case with these sorts of bold media proclamations, the label brushes aside a bit of history in its eagerness. Most notably, it ignores Drake Jensen, a Canadian country singer who came out in February, 2012, and whose latest video, “Scars,” details the pain of being bullied as an LGBT teen. Of course, you could argue that Jensen isn’t exactly a star, and

Blah blah blah….save it, hater. Jealous queens trying to capitalize on Steve Grand’s fame are what’s reductive. First of all, Drake Jensen is fat. Second of all, look at these nude photos of Steve Grand that just leaked!!
