Poor gay millionaire. He's got two
homes, a booming business, but no love. Short on time (and
apparently expertise) he calls in a matchmaker to couple him up. And
we get to watch it all on Bravo's hit reality series
Millionaire Matchmaker.
It's the show's
season finale and our matchmaker, Patti Stanger, is taking on her
first gay client, publicity guru Kevin Grangier.
“We're going to
find Kevin true love,” Stanger tells her staff. “I want my first
gay millionaire to be a success story.”
But gay matchmaking
rookie Stanger is off to a bad start. Consider the fact that she
says, “I love the gays.” And Grangier's floored when she asks
that late-night line: Are you a top or a bottom?
Stanger introduces
Grangier as a feverish workaholic who divides his time between West
Hollywood and his country estate in Kentucky, where he ultimately
plays host to his date.
Finding love with a
black Amex in your wallet is a dicey proposition, Grangier tells gay
weekly Windy City Times.
“I was cautious,
as I always am,” Grangier said about being matched up with a
gold-digger. “There were guys in the mixer who I definitely stayed
away from because I thought [money] was their primary objective, but
someone who's in my shoes would be pretty used to dealing with that.”
Even so, Grangier
tells the paper, he was “content” with his date.
The episode
premieres May 7 on cable channel Bravo.
