Gus Kenworthy Covers Attitude
Gus Kenworthy, the poster child for out and proud athletes, is on Attitude magazine's March 2016 cover.
The U.K. LGBT publication is Gus' first LGBT photo shoot and cover. Attitude had the enviable opportunity to speak to the bearded stud about his decision to come out, his first gay experience, and his time spent in Russia for the Sochi 2014 Winter Olympics.
From this tidbit about his first experience with a man, Gus clearly opened up to Attitude like never before: "I made the first move and it was reciprocated, and he had never, ever kissed a guy like that, so it was very much a new experience for both of us and it started a pretty long relationship."
The March 2016 issue boasts a 10-page spread of the muscled freeskier and if the cover and these Instagram pictures are any indication, we all have a lot to look forward to.

Gus Kenworthy’s Publicist Is Making Him ‘Cool It’ With the Shirtlessness

Recently out gay Olympian Gus Kenworthy said we might not be seeing too many more photos of him shirtless in the near future if his publicist gets their way.
Kenworthy spoke candidly about his exhibitionist tendencies with Michelangelo Signorile on his Sirius XM radio show on Tuesday:
“I need to cool it with that — according to my publicist,” Kenworthy said with a devilish smile while gesturing to his rep, sitting nearby. “But I don’t know, I guess I just felt like for so long, kind of pretending to be straight and lying in interviews, and everything that I was doing to try and fit in, I felt like I was like — I know it’s not actually clothes — but I felt like I was covering myself, and covering myself, and covering myself, and really censoring myself. So when I got to the point where I was really telling people that I was gay and I knew that I was going to come out publicly and stuff, it was sort of nice, and I guess freeing, to do something like that that was kind of off-brand for me, and something fun and I guess kind of objectifying, but still something that was fun and different.”
He added: “And I think I was insecure at that time. I mean, I was excited to come out but I was scared for what everyone was going to say and I knew that it was something that was happening very soon. And maybe, on a lower level, I guess I needed a little bit of attention.”
Kenworthy also responded to criticism he received about one of his Halloween costumes (not the mouse or the cop) in which he dressed up as a Native American:
“I didn’t think for a second when I did it that I was being offensive,” he explained. “I would’ve never done anything that I thought was going to offend anybody.”
After he deleted the photo, Kenworthy Googled around, where he said he learned a lesson.
“I went on my phone and I Googled — like an idiot — but like, ‘Is it racist to dress up like a Native American?’ And, I guess the answer is yes… It’s sort of a vague line, because if you’re a character, then it’s not really racist but if you’re just, like, an Indian, then it’s sort of racist. But at the same point, even a character, like Pocahontas or someone, for example, is still sort of based on a racial stereotype and sort of a misinterpretation of a culture. I felt guilty that I had done it. I also feel that sometimes people do really overreact. It’s Halloween. It’s a night to dress-up. But I don’t want to make anyone uncomfortable or feel like I was being rude or insensitive. So I took it down… I feel like, lesson learned and I won’t do it again.”

A Little Salute to Some Olympic Champs
Not just American chauvinism, but these dudes are amazing athletes and now Olympic medalists . . .
JOSS CHRISTENSEN, GUS KENWORTHY, NICK GOEPPER
"It was a U.S. podium sweep at the historic debut of men’s slopestyle skiing in the 2014 Sochi Olympic Winter Games Thursday, when Joss Christensen took the first-ever gold medal with Gus Kenworthy earning silver and Nick Goepper bronze."
Slopestyle skiing is a competition in a terrain park where competitors all ski over the same jumps and rails. Each competitor attempts his best rail skiing style and most extravagant aerial maneuvers. Slopestyle tests a skier's ability to handle a variety of terrain by executing freestyle maneuvers down a course. Each course is filled with features including rails, jibs, hips and a variety of jumps allowing riders to combine big air and technical tricks into one run. Competitors are scored in an overall impression judging format on amplitude, execution, difficulty of line, landing and use of the course.
And for all the other champions of all the other nations . . .
