American Idol season one Top 10 finalist RJ Helton still has a career….in the gay clubs!

The fagulous singer got scandalous at San Francisco gay Latin club called "Escandelo" this past weekend.

Seems like he's showing off more than his singing skills!

    On further inspection, I do believe the ring-around-the-nipple shade matches that of the lipstick on the matron behind him holding his pants….

    I met him while in California and had no idea who he was until he decided to mention it…Needless to say, I didn't believe him and just walked away. Silly me.

    Look at the look on that 60 year old 300
    pound drag pig. She looks like she wants
    to do more than suck his nipple. It is like two
    trannies trying to have sex - WRONG!!!

  17. Stevin says – reply to this

    funny part is, he came out with a christian cd after idol. LOL. I knew he was part of the family anyways, and bought it. He was my favorite next to Kelly that season.

    RJ came out of the closet over a year ago. He's been working the gay club circuit and on gay cruises for awhile.

    That's hot. RJ is always at the Club Papi events. And that's Miss Lola behind him. Tear it up, biatches! Don't hate The Dolls!

  31. david-0-selznick says – reply to this


    31

    Why any man would shave their armpits is beyond me. There's nothing nicer than sucking on long, juicy, smelly pitt hair.

  32. Rodger says – reply to this


    32

    I met RJ this past summer in St. Louis, and he's probably the most modest person I have ever met in my entire life.

    I do believe that he's gay, but that doesn't look like him in the face at all.

    What the hell is going on with the nipple. Did the Tranny attack that poor guy???

  40. Mike says – reply to this


    40

    Wow, doesnt even look like him. And, he came out as gay over a year ago. But, he was out as gay on the show, to the contestants, just not yo yhe public. My friend knows Jim and him and RJ got to know each other well lol

    RJ was chunkier during the idol days too. He looked better with the spiked hair

  41. JAMIE says – reply to this


    41

    For the idiot saying it's not RJ, you're just that …. an idiot. It is RJ, he's my best friend. And he's been with his boyfriend for over a year. And trust me, there's a LOT more than you know going on in those Calvins.

  42. TVDinner says – reply to this


    42

    Regarding the nipple, folks: don't you recognize a case of ringworm when you see it?

  43. Gingeriffic says – reply to this


    43

    Puhhhleeeez. You would have to have been blind to have not spotted this queen way back on the first season of American Idol. First, his eyebrows and make-up were way too overdone for any straight man. Secondly, he exudes that whole I'm a Latina Fag awaiting my Quinceanera(a la Justing from "Ugly Beatty"). I'm not denying that he is cute as a button and could make a career peddling Crest White Strips commercials or, more likely, some knock-off infomercial for Dental White at 2 in the morning following a re-run of Designing Women. All said, this queen's coming out was predictable.

  44. blakk says – reply to this


    44

    Well…I am not an Idol fan but I can say this…he is a cutie and I would love to tap that ass with this Italian dick!

  45. TURKISHWATERBUG says – reply to this


    45

    I was there that night everyone was calling him RING WORM becuase of the nipple

  46. Meme says – reply to this

    Hmmmm.. they might wanna think twice before taking off his pants like that again.

    Homeboy is not packing heat.

  50. Miss Lola says – reply to this

    YOU GUYS HAVE NOTHING ELSE TO TALK ABOUT THAN TALKING SHIT ABOUT US! RJ & I ARE HAVING A GOOD TIME AND IF SOME HATEFUL FAG PUT THIS SHIT UP MUST HAVE NOTHING ELSE TO DO WITH HIS LIFE. I GUESS THIS WILL BE YOUR 15 MINUTES OF FAME!! WOW!!!!! OH AND FOR MR ROGERS PLEASE DON'T HATE THE DOLL, I MIGHT BE FAT AND WEIGHT 300 POUNDS BUT BITCH I LOOK GOOD AND YOU CAN NOT HANDLE IT !!!!

    IT'S MISS LOLA BITCH!!!!!

  53. HollywoodKirk says – reply to this


    53

    That doesn't even look like him. Whoever it is I would do him.

  54. Yo MAMA says – reply to this


    54

    That is lipstick around his nipple. I bet that old fossile off a drag queen decided to get a taste of "the helt" with her moose mouth. I Dont think he was ever in the closet. He has a very hot very nice boyfriend. They may be married not sure.

  55. sexy says – reply to this


    55

    He has the body of a 12 year old. EVen with a beer can dick, I'd have to pass. The shaved underarms are nasty too.

  59. none of ur biz says – reply to this


    59

    RJ has NOT been doing the gay circuit. He has guest appeared on two gay cruises and has spent most of his time doing charity events for FREE unlike all the other gay artists. He has a boyfriend and has been committed to him for over a year and a half. He was at Club Papi having a good time when they brought him on stage. He was a good sport and let them take his shirt off. Unfortunately they took it a little too far. He laughed it off and went on having a good time.

    He was my little sisters dance coach at the YMCA and I use to tell her he was gay and she would get really mad at me and tell me it was not true!!

  71. t says – reply to this


    71

    Honestly that doesn't even look like RJ. You should check that one again. Plus, why is everybody shocked he was gay?!?! Was it that much of a secret/surprise?

  72. mb00 says – reply to this


    72

    yeah, that's her alright. RJ's got that tattoo on his left forearm. don't much care for "her". But Miss Lola, now her I LOVE!!!! known her for years.

  73. Guarini says – reply to this


    73

    He was on my flight to San Fran Thursday, and he was reading TEEN Magazine, and wore heavy bronzer, mascara and lipstick. Swishing down the aisle like he was Miss All That. The people assigned in the seats next to him begged the stewardess to move them, but there weren't any available seats.

    What a KA-WEEN!

    There's nothing sadder than an old drag queen!

  75. RJ is AWESOME says – reply to this


    75

    RJ is a great guy. Very talented and cute as hell!
    Just b/c you're gay doesn't mean you can't believe in GOD.
    You are born gay, it is not a choice.
    Leave him alone assholes.

    God, some of you are so stupid. RJ HELTON IS MY BEST FRIEND, AND YES THAT IS HIM. And to the person who met him @ St Louis Pride, you must not have gotten a good look. Yes, this is my boo. Yes, he lost some weight. Get the fuck over it. NO he does not have AIDS, YES he is gay, YES he has been out of the closet for over a year, and YES i know he is definitely packing serious heat under those Calvins!! Can everyone please stop hating, it's so ridiculous. RJ is more talented and an all around amazing person than any of you will ever get to know. Judging somebody because of pictures is a pathetic way to live. You'd be ever so lucky to have him in your life.

  81. Marissa says – reply to this

    Re: JAMIE – Good for you!!! Love him with all your heart. Life is too short to be concerned with what people think or say.

  82. ATL-lover says – reply to this


    82

    Ignorant people are just so annoying. I have known RJ's bf for years now (met years ago at Mardi Gras in New Orleans) and personally met RJ last year….I must say a lovely young guy from my hometown (Atlanta) that was quite modest and definitely not a fame-whore. The guy is just having some fun…everyone is entitled to! So if he was at a beach in speedo what would the difference be than what we see in the photo? Nothing. Leave that man and his boyfriend alone!

  83. Kukla, Fran & Ollie says – reply to this


    83

    Mr Rogers-Can you say "FUCKING ASSHOLE"?

  84. In the know says – reply to this


    84

    The real scoop: RJ has been living with his "daddy" in San Francisco since he lost on the show. Daddy is in his mid-40's and has a nasty habit of (thinking) (believing) and dressing like he is a 20 year old queen. It is tragic but true. RJ is now a kept boy. He and "daddy" share the home with daddies ex-lover and the ex-lover also has a thing for chicken looking boys too. The ex-lover has a 22 year old play toy. So, two old queens paying for some eye-candy on their arms because they badly miss their youthful days. It is too, too tragic and hysterical to see. That is the real story. And his pee-pee, so tiny you would not even look twice but since he is usually flat on his stomach getting a pony ride from daddy, what does it matter how tiny it truly is? Hilarious, but true !

    He's too twinky. Get some meat on his body. And for those who are like, he's gay? What the f**ck? Were you all blind when you watched American Idol?

  88. Christina says – reply to this


    88

    Forget the Idol reject!!! Miss Lola looks hott!! I've known him for many years and he's never looked better!!

    Re: In the know

    Who's the nasty bitter bitch now?? Like you know the whole story from a good source, maybe you're the nasty bitter rejected ex-bbf of Mr. RJ. You should get a life and let people live their lives how ever they choose to.

    Most of the people leaving nasty comments whould be so lucky to have one 10th of the talent, carisma, generosity AND looks this kid has. RJs boyfriend is HOT any guy old or young would be lucky to have him, I've been around them and notice how guys are trying to get his attention… I was one of them and I'm a young HOT successful model.
    ENVY is a nasty nasty thing it only makes people look UGLY!!!

  93. In the know says – reply to this


    93

    re: Don't Hate Bioches

    You're a hot model? I was thinking you were an intellect. It is spelled "byatches" and "charisma"….and anyone willing to sell himself away to a rich daddy with poor looks and poor style and who is sadly trying to re-live his 20's is tragic. Plain and simple. Tragic.

  94. In the know says – reply to this


    94

    re: Don't Hate Bioches

    Oh, and it is spelled "would" not whould. And your a "hot" and "successful" model. Don't confuse your attempts to get with RJ's daddy as a modeling job. Your more likely street trash like the not-even successful RJ. I am not the ex boyfriend of RJ either. I don't date nelly shrill little queens. That would include you. RJ's daddy has another little toy on the side and RJ is clueless about it and may find himself in the studio making another Christian album that will flop and maybe then he can join you as a "model". Not likely, for either of you.

    There is not a gay latin club in SF called Escandelo. Fact checking is needed.

  96. Check your facts says – reply to this

    Escandelo is a gay latin club that occurs once a month on friday as part of Club Papi productions. www.clubpapi.com

    Enjoy!!!

    Re: In the know

    Your comments only reflect the bitterness and hateful being you must be…how sad!!!
    I don’t lack intellect or love for people. It just saddens me to see so much hate in others. I think it’s a huge waste of body mind and soul. Still, God loves you.

    P.S. English is my 5th language and I don't need proper English grammar to be a successful model with a kind, loving heart and good soul… ah yes, to some that would be a handicap.
