Even The Extras On Bromance Are Sexually Complicated

thumbnail icon: Even The Extras On Bromance Are Sexually Complicated

I didn't write about Bromance yesterday because we had already talked about the intense and complex homoeroticism of the show, and also asked the important and unanswerable question: "who is this show for?" Now there is nothing to do but watch. And this week's episode, without any hot tub eliminations or surprise shower parties didn't open any new avenues of investigation.

OR SO I THOUGHT.

A tipster sent us a link yesterday to a post on Socialite Life that revealed that the "biker dude" that the contestants had to fight to demonstrate their ability to "have Brody's back" was actually a porno star.

Wait, whuuuuuuuuut?

As Socialite Life points out:

On his official website, Brody Jenner recently posted a recap blog of the most recent episode of his reality TV series Bromance. The Brodster described this week's challenge in which his "bros" fought to see who could (*ahem*) last the longest while competing in the boxing ring against some dude named Mario, described by Jenner as "the Bad Ass Biker Dude." You know, cause Brody's all about the fitness.

A commenter on Brody's website pointed out that this body-slamming "biker dude" is none other than a porn actor, who's performed in a number of skin-flicks for Reality Kings, going by the exotic stage name of "Reno."

So, just to clarify what's happening: Brody has invited a male porno star to battle the contestants in a ring wearing nothing but his jeans, while Brody will stand on the sidelines and watch. The results of these fights will help to determine who Brody will become best platonic boyfriends with forever. That's not mind-blowingly gay.

Here is the actual scene (minus the fights):

Brody can't watch The Soup with his bros this week (?!) (#$*&#^$^!). And remember, Brody doesn't want to see who is the toughest, he's just testing the boys' stamina? Classic guy stuff. Personally, I use a spreadsheet and quarterly athletic performance reviews to monitor the stamina of all my guy friends. (YOU BETTER DRUMLINE in Q3, Dan!) We just all get together at a biker bar, and I set out a bunch of vases full of fresh-cut sunflowers, and we wrestle in our jeans to see who is the best at friendship.

This show should be on the Discovery Channel, that is how INFORMATIVE it is.

Stop it Brody, name dropping the soup won't save you from Joel McHale. However, I do agree with Brody, Frankie needs to stop pouting it reeks of desperation.

Here's why everyones on the show. Femi's a closeted gay and has a crush on Brody. (Did you see the way he fights by the way? roflmao) Luke thought the shows premise was hilarious and so jokingly gave it a shot. Chris F. loves the idea of being friends with popular and attractive guys as opposed to only girls and fellow nerds. Gary is crazy, like seriously not right in the head, lol. And Alex is bicurious and attracted to Brody (and probably thinks Luke's cute). Brody loves the attention and of course having a show. And thats a wrap. No one will believe me about Alex I'm sure but I'm probably right guys. I bet he dropped that "Swingers" story of his at the campfire to see Brody's reaction. Notice he never said that it disgusted or repulsed him. He just sorta stopped at the end and waited for the other's reactions.
