I’ve heard the news before that a high-profile football player came out as gay but it’s only now that I saw who it was. I was watching the video on ABC about 2013 being a Historic Year for Gay Movement and there he was – football player Robbie Rogers. He’s so gorgeous!
So I went over to Twitter, searched for his name, followed him, went to his website and read more about him. His full name is Robert Hampton Rogers II and was born May 12, 1987 (he’ll be turning 27 this year). He’s from Huntington Beach, California but currently living in Los Angeles. He’s a Winger (position in soccer) and is also the co-owner of Menswear Brand “Halsey” and a fashion contributor for Bello Magazine. That explains why he’s so fashionable.
He has a very impressive football career, starting as young as four and currently plays for the LA Galaxy since May 2013. He has numerous awards and recognition in his chosen field. He inspired everyone to be best at one’s chosen career (and sports) regardless of sexual orientation. I became an instant fan of Robbie Rogers.
