Gigi Chao, China’s Most Famous Lesbian Millionaire, Had 5 Crazy Things Happen To Her

Gigi Chao, China's Most Famous Lesbian Millionaire, Had 5 Crazy Things Happen To Her

Remember when Cecil Chao offered any man $65 million to wed his lesbian daughter, Gigi Chao? Despite the fact that she was in a committed relationship with a partner? 

At the time, we wrote: 

No word on how Gigi or her partner of seven years feel about this. I’m going to imagine that they feel that it’s a bit ridiculous. The idea of Cecil Chao pushing for a traditional marriage seems still more ridiculous, given that he’s known as the “playboy tycoon” who once bragged that he’d slept with 10,000 women.

âThe Gay DietââAccording To Funny Stock Photos

Simon Doonan‘s new book Gay Men Don’t Get Fat is the latest buzz in the diet world; just this morning, a friend posted The Guardian‘s article about the gay diet on my Facebook page. I haven’t read the book yet, but this article does a great job of summarizing.
