Stars and Their Gay Brothers!

Christopher Ciccone (Brother of Madonna)

They seemed so close! Madonna’s gay brother Christopher, one of her five siblings, didn’t just decorate her homes and her concert stages; he also acted as her back-up dancer, assistant, and personal stylist. He’s prominently featured in the 1991 documentary Truth or Dare.

These days? Not so close, not since Christopher published last year’s negative tell-all, Life With My Sister Madonna. Christopher claimed that he and his sis are estranged because of then-hubby Guy Ritchie’s “homophobic” views and wrote a book — about her — to "define myself and separate from my sister at last." But frankly, the very existence of this book makes the explanation from the Madonna camp sound far more plausible: that Christopher is a drug-addicted leech who his famous sis finally decided to stop supporting.

Eamon Farrell (Brother of Colin Farrell)

Eamon and Colin Farrell

When Colin Farrell’s big brother Eamon married his boyfriend Steven, it was only natural that Colin act as the best man. After all, Colin and Eamon are very close, even buying houses together in Sandymount, South Dublin. Colin reportedly also helped Eamon buy a diamond and sapphire engagement ring and paid for the wedding, which took place in Provincetown, Massachusetts.
