In reply to BadGyalRita.

I disagree with this statement entirely. Out of last season's top six, there were four men--and only Cory was gay and/or effeminate. The only other gay contestant was eliminated in week 1.

I think Cory got the hosting gig because he was the most animated and articulate of last cycle's top contestants (only Renee would've done as good of a job - and she's friend's with current contestant Shei so that would've been weird).

Reverse prejudice DOES indeed exist, but I think its often called out when its not there or when minorities are simply on the up-and-up.
