We watched them all spring, the unlikely friends, taking stage week after week, locked in a Highlander style battle for the hearts of America. In the end, America went hottie twink over studly goth. But by then it hardly mattered - they were both rock stars. And now they're proving it.

Meet Your Gay of the Week: Oliver Fish!

Oliver Fish nabs the crown again, garnering 38% of the vote for his fiery coming-out declaration in front of protesters and cameras on One Life to Live.

In second place is his paramour Kyle Lewis, who earned 29% for making his own declaration ... of love.

Trailing in third is Sam and Dan from The Amazing Race, who wore clingy long underwear and won the week's race, but could only manage 17% in the face of the Kish juggernaut.

Right behind them with 16% was Modern Family's Mitchell, who proved he still has all the right moves.

Congrats to Oliver, who's getting quite accustomed to wearing the crown. Come back next Thursday to see if he's nominated again, or if four new contenders will vie for the top spot.

It's a music video from the upcoming release of Make the Yuletide Gay starring Adamo Ruggiero which comes out on DVD next Tuesday.

The song is called "Gloria" and was written and performed by Jake Monaco and Jen Hansen and . It's actually quite catchy and I daresay us 'mos might just now have a Holiday song to call our own!
