Ooh, he's ready for it...
So, I am working on a primer on the Long Island Crazyfaces because they are adorable and rubbish and so gay, but that might be a while, so in the meantime I hope no one will object to me reposting my Gabe Saporta/Cobra Starship primer? I actually wrote most of this a few months ago, so I've updated it a little.
So.
Gabe Saporta eh?
Prelude
Gabe Saporta, singer of Midtown and Cobra Starship, prominent resident of the city of gay itself, Chicago, friend of every FBR member ever, and general bringer of The Gay.
Gabe might be a bit of a dick, a little too sure of himself, a braggart, if you will, but he's also a whole lot of fun so basically you have a choice: get really put off by the bad sides of his character or ignore them and just appreciate how entertaining he is. For the record, when I met him he was perfectly nice, perfectly accomodating, and didn't mind me taking ages over the picture because I managed to break my friend's camera...
I leave it up to you:
1. Wherein Gabe is in Midtown and is a bit flamboyant
So Gabe wasn't only gay when he joined DD, oh no! He's always enjoyed hamming it up homoerotic style:
2. Wherein Gabe Builds A Really Hot Supergroup
Then Gabe decided he wanted to do something fun so he started this new venture, Cobra Starship. He wrote some songs, songs to dance to, and then someone decided to give Gabe the theme song for Snakes On A Plane, and he thought, ok, but hey, you know what I need? Hot people.
Comme ca. Gabe's not aware that Bill and Maja are superhot. No, not at all. Gabe certainly does not enjoy draping himself over them.
Gabe does usually look this smug, yes. Well wouldn't you? This band, you might think, depending on who you are and what you read, are just a GSF waiting to happen.
Decaydance decided that Gabe, Travis, and William got to be Maja's dates to the VMAs.
(Decaydance, of course, being Pete. And Pete, of course, being Gabe pulling Pete up to him and grinning and saying, "I want William to be my date to the VMAs," and Pete saying, "Why don't you just take Travis and Maja too?" and that, really, was why Pete was the one with his own label and not Gabe, and also why Gabe had to give Pete a big smacking kiss right then and there.)
Maja shrugged and told them not to clash with her outfit. Gabe suggested she wear a slinky dress.
William frowned and asked, "How's that going to work, exactly?" Gabe ignored his question and suggested he wear a slinky dress. ~ addictedkitten
I direct you also, to the Fic links at the bottom of this entry.
3. Wherein Gabe Crushes On Bill Beckett
(Who doesn't?) So Gabe and Bill are friends, who knows why or where or how that happened, probably because Gabe saw Bill and wanted a piece of his hot ass. If he didn't achieve that I'll eat my hat. William sings on Bring It and they're generally pretty hot for each other.
Gabe is, as you may have gathered, not so much with the shy and retiring, so he posts journal entries like this:
June 09 2006 | 4:59 am
ask, and ye shall receive.
new journal entry:
where am i ? and how did i get here?
i am in la, sitting in william's hotel room and crashing on his couch.
ive got some explaining to do:
i came out here on monday to shoot a video on tuesday with william and travis for snakes on a plane (more on that in a miinute). i was supposed to leave tonight, but the academy are shooting their video tomorrow so i decided to stay one more day. but i kinda got kicked out of the hotel, so i had to sneak into william's room for the last night. ok, that's a lie. the truth is i ate all the pringles from the minibar and didnt have the cash to pay for it, so they wouldnt let me stay an extra night. ok, that's also a lie. the truth is the hotel was sold out. fine, another lie. if you really want to know the truth, i just want to snuggle next to william.
what!?
it's not gay if you don't cum.
Ok Gabe. Thanks. The whole snuggling thing was brought up again, by Gabe, at a CS show, when Gabe decided to tell the crowd that Beckett was Gabe's 'snugglebud'. That's kinda cute you guys. The evidence is included in the video links below. Here is a snippet from a myspace update:
Martin from Boys Like Girls has been doing William's part on "Snakes on a Plane" with us every night. And I must say, he is as sexy, if not sexier than the Beckett himself! Let us know what you think about him shaking his ass with us on stage.
There was this response:
No one will ever be as sexy or sexier than William Beckett. End of story.
Gabe, of course, was put in his place and humbly agreed:
thats's true. i misspoke. let us just say then that martin played a very sexy william beckett then?
Sometimes Beckett is with Gabe on stage, and there are loving glances and cuddles:
Sometimes Beckett just serenades him in private:
Sometimes Gabe crashes Beckett's interview pieces and makes Bill blush:
It was obviously entirely necessary to grope William's chest at this point.
I'd like to point out the part where Gabe kisses Bill:
Because, hi, yeah, no words, BUT. HOWEVER. MOREOVER. I would like to point out the OVERWHELMING GAY of SOMETIMES, GABE EATS CHOCOLATE OUT OF WILLIAM'S BELLYBUTTON.
Jesus Christ, is it really necessary to flirt that much?
(Let's all take a moment to happily appreciate Patrick in the background ok?)
4. Wherein Gabe Appreciates His Label Manager
Gabe is not one to let the part where Pete Wentz was kind enough (ok, canny enough) to sign CS to Decaydance go unnoticed. He likes giving Pete the lovin'... (and occasionally, the money they got from pimping out the Panic! boys)...
He even goes so far as to model Clan clothing, and that's a pretty big sacrifice to your standard of living :/ (HERE'S LOOKING AT YOU, CHELLE)
5. Wherein Gabe Has Little Bits On The Side
It's not like Gabe's attention is limited okay. Beckett isn't the only skinny scene kid around.
Now, I know what you're thinking. You're thinking, wow, skankymikeyway looks pretty gay there (you may also be thinking, woe, I miss smw's glasses, or just overwhelming jealousy at his coat, but generally you're struck dumb by the gay). Don't think that Gabe doesn't know this, but it's ok, because he's got a trick up his sleeve:
...grinding. Ho yes.
No one outgays Gabe.
Can we also not forget that Gabe and Travis heart each other (see videos):
So for the next few pictures, I'm not even going to try and blag it. To be perfectly honest, I don't have a clue when these were taken, or who these people are (if you know, please tell). All I could tell you is g, a, and indeed y.
edit: This is Chris #2 from Anti-Flag - thanks Lorna. This picture is now so much cooler - Gabe doesn't just restrict himself to the gay, gay label that is FBR, oh no. Ahah, Anti-Flag. Wow.
K.
6. Wherein Gabe Gets A Proper Band And They're Still All Hot
(There's a surprise...)
Left to right, Ryland, Gabe, Elissa, Alex, Nate. Ok, Nate isn't actually in this picture. He can be found in the videos section and below. Nate is small, cute, looks like a less emo Conor Oberst, and is a little jailbaitish. Oh Gabe. Gabe likes Nate:
(Myspace journal) But Nate really hated [the old bus]. He had been living on there for almost 2 years because it was Armor for Sleep's old bus (Nate used to be their drum tech) and he was sick of it. Nate never complains about anything, so we figured, hey, if Nate is finally speaking up about something, then he's entitled to get his way.
Aw, democracy in the Cobra camp!
(More journal) Well actually, Nate Novarro, our beloved boy-toy drummer, was the first full-fledged Cobra. He committed to it right away; moved up from Atlanta and into my basement to join.
Hearts.
Drapey drapey. My immediate response to this picture was 'Wow, how much does Elisa look like she doesn't belong in that group.' Then almost straight away I thought 'Wow, how much does GABE look like he doesn't belong.' Anyway, back to the gay.
God, they're adorable!
Anyway, so, there was a big hoo-ha in January of this year when Elisa, the original Keytar player, was thrown out of the band (see the Words section). Quickly drafted in was the unbelievably gorgeous 'Vicky T'. She really is ridiculously attractive, to the extent that I couldn't even manage to say hello for fear of gaping. Vicky T is a very Gabe sort of girl, but at the same time, unlikely (in my opinion) to end up in love with him/fucked over by him or whatever Elisa was on. Here is the new and improved, and dude, totally hotter, Cobras!
Oh HAY.
Because, when pressed, Gabe will cuddle the hotass boy, not the hotass girl.
I would like to deliver my own anecdote here - at one of their recent shows in London, someone threw a giant candy cobra on stage, like, a gummi worm, but really long? So Gabe picks it up and is suitably excited by it. Ryland says something. Gabe's all 'Yeah? You want to?' and walks over to Ryland. The two proceed to eat the snake a la Lady and the Tramp :D They get about 10cm apart and Gabe pulls away, saying 'WHAT ARE WE DOING?!' People cheer! They love the gay! I love the gay too.
7. Wherein Gabe Does Not Feature
This is where we depart from Gabe's tendency to fuck guys, and look at the wonders that are Alex and Ryland, because oh the love I have for them. Alex and Ryland used to be in a band called The Ivy League together, who made lovely indie pop (indie pop! And now they're singing pop punk! Don't you love them already!), then Gabe came along and nabbed them for his hottie band, and because no one can say No to Gabe (oh please, the boy eats pieces of chocolate off William Beckett, you think you have any kind of backbone when it comes to him?) they joined. They turned out to be all kinds of awesome, and if they didn't exist I'm not sure Cobra Starship would be the genius band it has become. Random facts: Ryland does a really impressive English accent, and wil shake his 'arse' on command.
Here are Alex and Ryland sitting on a bed. Let me point out that there is a BOOK, and a SCARF, and a BUNNY. And crossed legs. And general twee love <3
Here are Ryland and Alex making you fall in love with them:
Here are Alex and Ryland making you fall in lust with them:
Here are Ryland and Alex being gaymos (there's a reason Gabe invited them and not any old twee pop duo):
The caption on myspace for this picture is "Man, I wish Justin Timberlake would just call me back already!", which sends my brain to happy places (Ryland working SexyBack anyone?)
Finally, here is Ryland doing the impossible: making Beckett look bad:
:o
See the videos section for a video in which Alex and Ryland get to do an interview on their own and STEAL your HEARTS, also for various other appearances in which they are just so great (sew gr8). The end.
Endgame
(Wherein lie miscellaneous factuals about Gabe)
Things Gabe likes to do other than grope pretty boys:
- Remind us all of his upbringing in Uruguay (ok, Gabe, we get it, you're a poor boy who made it big. I'm sure Pete will let you make a film of it soon..)
- Talk. Write. Talk. Be generally big mouthed. Sometimes articulately, sometimes not.
- Take endless boring videos of his boring life and his boring friends. Sorry what? No, I'm kidding, go and peruse them at length if you have a couple of hours to kill: here.
- Have big fights with ex-bandmates. So Cobra Starship kicked Elisa out and there was a big hoo ha and some of it's pretty funny and some is pretty sad. Check out the words section.

Gay sex! Gabe is looking forward to it. (hurray for fangirls asking embarassing questions!)
"[Gabe] is like page 6 with a soundtrack" - Pete Wentz 00:48
Travis loves Gabe :) About 2:08. Also, bonus of Beckett being the most adorably awkward interviewee ever "Maja, mesmerising all the security guys, uh... and, and girls, probably... she's that me- she's that- mesmerising." n'aw!
Gabe embarasses Beckett (briefly, gayly, it's what we like to see)
Wax on, wax off (Gabe's a dick, part one)
Gameplan (Gabe's a dick, part two)
How many guys you got left? (Gabe's a dick, part 2638952254) Ok ok sorry I'll return to the gay:
"I like to keep William Beckett locked in my basement" Snugglebuds!
"Where do I fit into that?" Gabe ships him/Bill/Travie.
Alex and Ryland interview featuring Gabe, the big gay. "No Gabe, I don't want to make out with you later..." This video provides a lot of canon on the formation/friendships of the band \o/
We met a band.. proof that Cobra Starship are in the fact the funnest band in the world.
Proof of Nate's insane cuteness
MORE PROOF, in case you needed it. shgasdjkas. Nate.
Bonus: Bill Beckett is a touchy-feely drunk - who would have thought it? Ok, so this doesn't involve Gabe, but I just couldn't resist passing flouncy flirty pissed Beckett around.
Bonus 2: Patrick, oh god Patrick. Plus the added bonus of Gabe and Patrick calling Gabe an asshole. <3

If there are other queries re: Gabe and his gay, Cobras, or um, other.. stuff... I can probably answer them but just forgot to include it, so overwhelmed was I by the gay.
I didn't know whether this should be locked, so I've locked it to be on the safe side. Also, the tags confuse me! For I am rubbish.
So.
Gabe Saporta eh?
