John Barrowman (Torchwood, Doctor Who) continues to rock as one of the most outspoken, visible faces of the gay community. I just love him and this YouTube clip shows exactly why. John was one of the hosts for London Pride and during some of the activities he pulled his partner Scott Gill up in front of the crowd and planted a kiss on him, something he says he's never done before in public. It's a sweet, fun moment and really puts the "pride" in gay pride. It's a relationship and kiss now being seen by thousands and thousands of gay kids (and adults) who have a great role model to whom they can look up.

You go, John!
