Are there any Brad Mondo feet pics? I've never seen a single one as far as I recall
I just saw that the girl he was claiming was his girlfriend posted a Tik Tok with Brad and he was straightening her hair with a spray from his hair product collection. My guess that this whole "turning straight" thing was to get attention on social media for their podcast and some new hair straightening product he's probably releasing soon.
It's the most likely scenario. It's so disingenuous and corny.
I agree that it's very off putting, considering the huge increase of homophobic sentiments and promotion of conversion therapy that's going on globally, right now. I think that it's extremely tone deaf for an openly gay man to pretend to "turn straight" and have a girlfriend to get attention in order to promote himself and make money.

i meannnn str8 people do it all the time for money from our community, so it’s whatever lol
I saw that he posted a new Tik Tok addressing all of the comments about his voice and he said that his "masculine voice" is his real voice and that he's been putting on a character for a long time on the internet and the new Brad is the real him.

Uh huh, sure it is Brad
I low-key think he’s telling the truth. I feel like a lot of the time I will put on an over feminine persona to be liked more, especially to female friends. Realistically beauty videos are targeted towards women, so him acting more effeminate to appear more likeable and make women feel more comfortable makes sense to me. Could also be that he also isn’t in his early 20s anymore and is beginning to mature. Nothing wrong with being feminine but it’s very easy to fall into the trap of over exaggerating those characteristics.
I definitely agree about how people often put on a persona to be liked more and can often get trapped in it. I will say though, that I have no idea if it's an act or not. I don't necessarily agree that being feminine made him more likeable to women, because since he started acting more masculine, his social media engagement has gone through the roof on all of his platforms, and women are going crazy over him in his comment sections, particularly on Instagram and Tik Tok.
Good point actually, I think from the perspective of a hairdresser it worked well for him to use his old persona, more of a “gay best friend” and someone women would like and feel comfortable around. Now there’s way more understanding of bisexuality or gays that don’t necessarily fit that stereotype. Who knows, maybe he is playing up the more masculine aesthetic but imo the voice seems pretty natural? Maybe he’s just trying to balance his femininity and masculinity and now the “straight” act is getting a lot of positive attention.
I could definitely see how this could be the case. I also think that moving away from the whole "flamboyant and feminine gay best friend" persona could be a strategic move on his part (I don't mean that in a bad way), since he's said quite a few times recently that "I don't want to just be the hair guy anymore" and has been talking a lot about wanting to do more things to do with fashion and other things outside of hair, and the clean cut/masculine/straight acting persona is more marketable to a broader/wider audience.
Exactly, it’s not about demonising femininity or feminine men. I reckon he’s just outgrown it. I think that’s fair enough, we should normalise not having to have the exact same personality for years lol. People change. I’m not sure if the bi thing is an act or not tbh, I feel like he’s trolling because people are saying his new aesthetic is very “straight”.
“stop looking at my girl, sis”
So I watched the latest episode of Brad's podcast that came out today, and I see that he addressed a comment from a viewer about his sexuality starting at the 15:49 mark on the video. He says that sexuality is a spectrum and that not everyone has to be gay or straight, and that things can change for some people.
Of course he's going the sexual fluidity, "sexuality is a spectrum", "things can change" route. Why is this man lowkey pushing conversion therapy narrative? It's so weird.
I agree that the "things can change" and "sexuality is fluid" is not a good way of addressing his sexuality and implies that people's sexuality can be converted, even if that's not what he's trying to say (personally, I don't think he is). I think that when people talk about "sexuality is fluid", they need to specify that the only people that experience sexual fluidity are bisexual, not gay or straight. I think that if he identifies as sexually fluid or bisexual now instead of gay, that's fine. I also think that if he said something like "people's labels can change as they learn more about themselves" would have been a much better thing to say instead of implying that people themselves can change.
Peachy is almost everybody's type. This man is gorgeous.
