Battle of the Network Gays! It's Ian vs. Raja vs. Jeffrey vs. Teddy!

Every week we're going to pick the gays who made the biggest splash on television and let you, the keepers of the flame, decide who will be crowned Gay of the Week. We'll announce the winner the following Monday, and that champion will reign until a new set of challengers are unveiled the following week.
Ian Gallagher, Shameless

This week, Ian had to deal with an unwelcome crush from a female classmate. That's something gay teens have faced before, but the unrequited feelings don't usually come from someone like Mandy Milkovich, whose brothers who are quick to respond to her allegations (she accused Ian of attacking her) with violence.
We got to see different sides of Ian as he tried to avoid a beating from Mandy's brothers. First he used his knowledge of the neighborhood to stay hidden, and when he got tired of hiding, he planned an ambush of the Milkovich brothers, letting that ROTC training come in handy. In the end, however, Ian went with honesty and came out to Mandy, the beginning of a new and promising friendship.
Raja, RuPaul's Drag Race

Make-up artist Sutan Amrull has long been a favorite of America's Next Top Model fans and this week he added to his fanbase when his drag persona Raja made her RuPaul's Drag Race debut.
Raja showed us that she could give the ANTM hopefuls a run for their money, taking a flawless, winning photo while bouncing on a trampoline, ruling the runway, and creating a holiday outfit that wowed the judges. We look forward to seeing what else Raja brings to the Race.
Jeffrey Williams, The Fashion Show

Jeffery had a challenging run on The Fashion Show. He spent the first several weeks of the competition in the House of Emerald while it struggled. Jeffrey's designs stood out, but because his team frequently lost, his designs weren't eligible to be declared the week's best. However, in this week's finale, Jeffrey got the best bit of praise when he was declared the winner of the second season.
Teddy Montgomery, 90210

We didn't get to see much more of Teddy when 90210 returned this week but, as you'd expect, Trevor Donovan made it memorable.
When Dixon let Teddy know that he saw him kissing Ian, it was hard not to be moved watching Teddy's face as he struggled between a desire to reach out and be honest with a friend or to keep his sexual orientation hidden. Teddy may not be getting a lot of screen time, but he's certainly moving us.
Vote for your favorite by Noon EST Sunday. Be sure to check back on Monday to see who you've picked as Gay of the Week!
