Frank DeCaro: Former Correspondent for The Daily Show Speaks!

First blowing into our homo-super-ego with his 1996 debut on The Daily Show, he won America's heart as the super-fag with something to say. After leaving Jon Stewart & Co. he kept our boob tube tolerable with nightly appearances on the Game Show Network's I've Got A Secret. Now, thanks to lefty liberals at Sirius Satellite Radio he's gaylicious barbs and bon motts are continuing to saturate all of too-str8 America. The Frank DeCaro Show is a 3-hour non-stop frenzy of faggotry, and we couldn't be happier this poofy prima donna chated with us when he was in Philadelphia for the Delaware Valley Legacy Fund's HEROES 2007 fundraiser.

Matthew: What's it like to be on Sirius Satellite Radio?
Frank DeCaro: I am on the air for 3 hours a day! It's real work! But so many groovy people and celebrities are here, it's like a party everyday! I get to chat on the phone with the Golden Girls! Nancy Sinatra drops in for a chat. You hang out here long enough, and you pee next to everyone.

Do you miss the Daily Show?
I was on the show for 6 great years. As soon as I left, it became a national phenomenon. It blew up all over! I must have been holding it back.

You were the "movie-guy" on the Daily Show, lets gossip about film....
I still can't get over the Oscars this year. I know it's in the past, but it still haunts me. When they announced the nominees for the Oscars, do we think Beyonce is had a snit? Jennifer Hudson over her? I would be impossible! Think she rang the alarm?

I bet she tussled with Hudson backstage. Don't mess with Beyonce! What was the gayest movie in the last few years? Tranformers? Devil Wears Prada? Brokeback Mountain?
Easy answer is Devil Wears Prada. Clearly that was a movie made for and by a lot of gay men. Fashion? I'll take some! But honestly, Dreamgirls was probably the gayest movie of the decade. It wasn't nominated because everyone knew it wouldn't win, and they were afraid to upset the gays too much. We lost Brokeback, if we had lost Dreamgirls we would have rioted in the streets.

Besides Sirius, what else have you got cooking? What upcoming projects?
I have some book proposals coming up in the next few months, and some stories in the New York Times. I want to get back to writing, I miss writing. And as always, Xtube!

Ohhh X-tube, your awful...
I just like to touch base with what people think is kinky and dirty in America, and of course it's got some incredible looking guys on it. I'm not an addict though! (Laughs)

You were here last to judge the Mr. Gay Philadelphia contest, what did you look for when you were deliberating?
I judged Mr. Gay LA too, and you are looking for someone who is not only cute, but has tremendous personality. He should not only have a great package, but be a great package. The total package. But if all else fails, just have a big one.

How is your visit to Philadelphia treating you?
I love Philadelphia, my partner Jim went to the UPENN so we love coming to the city. It's always a great honor to be invited down, and it's like a little vacation for us every time.
