‘WOW’ magazine’s bolder cover appears to be a response to critics delegitimizing the actor in the LGBT+ community
In “pajubá”, a popular language used in the LGBT+ community, aquendar means to hide the male sexual organ to disguise its volume. A common practice among transvestites, drag queens, transgender women and cross-dressers. Reynaldo Gianecchini looks ‘hot’ on one of the covers of the new edition of the magazine ‘WOW’.
With pubic hair on display, simulating a vagina, the actor makes the boldest gesture of his personal life and career since, in 2020, he declared “I’m not gay, I like everything” and immediately after classified as pansexual.
Over the past four years, the artist has been harshly criticized (and mocked) by LGBT people dissatisfied with his stance on his sexuality and his reluctance to raise a flag. He has become a favorite target for patrol.
His image was further attacked after the announcement that he would star in the musical “Priscilla, Queen of the Desert”, playing a drag queen. He was accused of having taken the place of an actor more committed to the cause. His casting was pure marketing, they said. Presented at the Bradesco Theater, in São Paulo, the show was a success with the public and critics.
In interviews, Reynaldo Gianecchini, 51, said he felt “quite attacked” by the online hostility. He called for greater acceptance within the rainbow community.
Among the various subdivisions that segregate LGBT themselves, the heartthrob falls into the ‘standard’ group, that is, explicitly handsome men (generally white), with a sculpted gym body and good economic power. A profile seen as narcissistic and exclusivist. This toxic stereotype is yet another burden the actor must carry.
