Default Band video features gay couple

While reading a few news stories on the BBC news website I came across this story on the band Boyzone. The band decided that their new video would feature not only heterosexual couples but also a gay couple. Apparently, this is the first time that a gay couple has been featured.

Boyzone still exist?

Anyway, I think that's great! The video shows the gay couple exactly like the straight couples, which is how it should be

Good old Steven. He broke many a girls hearts when he came out. I remember I was in High School and a few girls actually cried because they were convinced marriage was on the cards!

Actually, Vanessa Carlton's video for 'Hands on Me' features heterosexual, and homosexual couples. Both lesbian and gay men.

+ YouTube Video
ERROR: If you can see this, then YouTube is down or you don't have Flash installed.


And then, of course, who can forget Christina Aguilera's steamy video for 'Beautiful'? That's actually the first time I saw two guys kissing.
Probably my first erection too.

Agreed. Well, about the video.... I'd had many an erection before then and didn't get one during. (I was all into the emotion/meaning of the song and.... yeah I know I know... I'm single for a reason. haha)

Well, seeing as I'm 16 now... I was quite younger when the video came out... which would explain my body's reaction.
