Your Gay of the Week: Luke Snyder, "As the World Turns"

After finally coming to his senses and growing a pair this week (the two happen together all to rarely!), Luke Snyder of As the World Turns has won the crown in the Battle of the Network Gays.

To find out by what margin Luke bested the other challengers, read on. And be sure to check back in on Friday when a new crop of hopefuls throw down the gay gauntlet in the name of network supremacy!

Why he won: After months of borderline obsessive behavior that got him kicked out of school, found him in the arms of his own grandfather and sent him chasing after a college killer, Luke finally returned to form by focusing on the important things: throwing his name and money around. (Oh, I kid, I kid!)

How he won: Young Master Snyder earned 49% of the votes for his Norma Gae speech in last week's episode. Birthday boy John Barrowman put up a valiant fight and pulled in 34%, while RuPaul earned 10% of the votes for her executive realness. Meanwile, JD from The Real World failed to impress, earning 7%.

Past wins: This is Luke's fifth tour of duty, which ties him with his doting boyfriend Noah Mayer as the most popular Gay of the Week.

We'll see you on Friday, when your votes will determine who will enjoy gaydom's most sought-after piece of headgear next week!
