Gay Males Choose Ellen DeGeneres as Their Favorite Celebrity Endorser
Gay males have crowned talkshow personality Ellen DeGeneres their most admired celebrity, and have singled out her recent pitch work with Maybelline as the advertising campaign they liked most in the past year.
The survey of approximately 3,000 respondents, conducted for Variety, indicates not all attributes need to be present to win respect from gay consumers.
Angelina Jolie, Oprah Winfrey, Sandra Bullock and Johnny Depp – one of which is male, and all of whom are or have been linked to heterosexual partners –
are ranked among the most admired as well.
Widespread popularity is one attribute that doesn’t seem to be a major factor for this demo’s approval, as Lady Gaga, Justin Timberlake, Hillary Clinton, Brad Pitt and Channing Tatum were identified as this group’s
least admired celebrities.
