 AfterElton.com - Personal Ad Addresses Issue of Anwar Robinson's Sexual Orientation
"Anwar Robinson, who performed a flawless rendition of 'A House is Not A Home' by Burt Bacharach and Hal David, is the favorite to win among nearly all internet sports betting firms," commented Thomas Jensen, Marketing Director for Sports911.com in a recent press release.
It also raises questions around why Robinson did not remove his profile once he was selected to be on the show, given the intense scrutiny he knew he was going to receive as a contestant on a show watched by over 20 million Americans each week.
Robinson did not address his sexual orientation in his official Fox bio, however, and contestants are not allowed to talk to the press until after they have been eliminated from the competition, so Robinson has not yet been given an opportunity to set the record straight himself.
