Mr. Gay pageant advice

Frank DeCaro is an expert on cute Philly guys. In addition to co-hosting this year’s Mr. Gay Philadelphia, the comedian and Sirius radio host has also been on the judging panel. We hit him up for guidance for Saturday night’s contestants, but his ultimate advice applies to everyone: “Beware of drag queens bearing shots named after desserts.” Noted.

How do the Philly contestants measure up?

Cute! There seems to be a bumper crop of cute guys every year.

What advice do you have for Mr. Gay hopefuls?

Have a lot of fun and just sort of revel in the festivity of it all — get out there and show your all. And it’s always good to watch “Designing Women” and take some notes from Suzanne Sugarbaker.
