But that was back 2003, before today's queer kids were even born."I thk a huge leap forward for unscripted TV is the fact that not once durg the show did they ever have to refer to as 'gay,'" Jarll m now. Public wasn't even entirely acceptg of queer people recent years, there have also been historic LGBTQ+ wners who have phed boundari realy TV wh the cln of not only lbian, gay, and bi nttants, but also trans and nonbary people as well. The most legendary gay realy TV wner of all time is Richard Hatch, who won the first-ever season of Survivor.
S., is absolutely inic that s first-ever wner was a gay man. Not only was Todd Herzog great gay reprentatn on realy TV, but he was also absolutely beloved by the Survivor fandom. As such, was que legendary that a gay man, Brian Dowlg, won the send-ever season of Big Brother UK.
Herren not only ma history as the first-ever gay man to w Big Brother, but he's also nsired one of the bt strategic wners of the entire seri. All the way back season three, Hung Huynh was crowned the wner of Top Chef, beg the first gay man to w the show.
