Battle of the Network Gays for May 8

Every Friday we pick the gays in television who have had the best week and leave it to you, the keepers of the flame, to decide who will be crowned Gay of the Week and enjoy their own fancy button over on the left. We'll announce the winner on Monday, and that champ will reign until a new set of challengers are introduced the following Friday to try to steal his title.

Last week you voted American Idol hopeful Adam Lambert into the throne for the FIFTH time ... will he be able to fend off these three challengers to hold on to the throne for a record SIXTH time in 2009?

Check them out, and vote for your favorite!

This week's contenders:

Adam Lambert from American Idol (Why?)

Scotty Wandell-Walker from Brothers & Sisters (Why?)

Jake Nodar from Out of the Wild (Why?)

Nate Berkus from Oprah (Why?)

Vote for your favorite by 8 AM EDT on Monday, May 11. And be sure to check back next week to see which gay our readers have carried to glory!
