Gay fella wins Dance Your Ass Off - also, Kooza is in town!

Huh, I'd seen parts of a couple of episodes of 'Dance Your Ass Off' but had no idea frontrunner and eventual winner Ruben was gay.

Lyle Masaki at AfterElton.com has the whole story.

Good for him!

For winning, and being openly gay.

Also, he's the head of wardrobe for Cirque du Soleil. Is that the most glamorous job in the world or what?

Speaking of Cirque du Soleil, their show Kooza is in Denver until September 27 and if you haven't had a chance to check it out yet, you really should.

It's gorgeous.
