From "He Wolf" to "Party In The FIP", the gay community has quite a reputation for creating viral videos of the best mainstream pop hits. And if there's anywhere our talents could really be utilized, it's within the US military. We've already seen a group of soldiers offering up their own rendition of 'N Sync, and now we've got two more clips of the same variety.
The first comes from the US Air Force Academy, as they try their best to do Ke$ha's "Tik Tok". It's a nice effort when it comes to hip-thrusting, but they could use a lesson from the "not gay" twinks, Boston's gay flag football league or drag queen Nina West.
Next, we have a few soldiers in Afghanistan offering up their own version of Lady Gaga's "Telephone". As much as we appreciate Big Rob spastically moving his beefy body, he can't hold a torch to the parody Sherry Vine and Peppermint turned out. However, these boys deserve bonus points for the utter calamity around 1:38 in the clip.
Click through to check out the videos, and let us know what you think. Couldn't these boys benefit from some tighter choreography and artistic direction? We don't mean to enforce gay stereotypes or anything… but these boys need to step it up!

2nd vid reminds me of someone… i should call him later…
2nd has better moves, 1st has better production 😛
expect the guy that remind’s me my friend’s reaaly really white dancing…
I’m with BlockedUser on that guys dancing.
Tragic.
You talking about the cute husky guy’s hip thrusting? I thought it was hot.
Then again, I’m possibly the whitest guy on the face of the earth, so maybe I’m immune to bad dancing. 😛
^ To me it’s not so much the dancing as it is his facial expressions.
It’s like, am I supposed to think his dancing’s hot or laugh at how insanely ridiculous his facials are?
Either way it left me with a huge case of epic facepalm.
Aww, man. Why all the criticisms of the video? These are bored military guys who decided to make videos to dance like fools in. It’s fun, and funny. Choreography doesn’t matter.
Plus, hellooo. Hot military guys doing hip thrusts? What’s not to like?
The chunky guy in the second vid had some good moves. I shall adopt them for my next club outing ^_^
By far, the best evidence I’ve seen for the repeal of DADT.
This made the news in New Zealand.
Such riveting news is it not?!
The first video was really cute. A bunch of bored guys having fun. It has a concept and even the use of the female was fun. The second video, the chubby guy was adorable. He looks like he’s just a blast to hang out with. The kind of guy you would want around out there.
Yeah I have the hots for the husky guy plus I like his rendition of Lady Gaga’s dance during the ‘Let’s Make A Sandwich’ segment of the telephone video.
Yeah, I really liked the husky one in “Telephone”. I love guys who just throw themselves into the moment. The guy looks like he’d be fun as hell!
