The Blue Power Ranger (David Yost) Reveals All
The blue Power Ranger reveals all. For most of us who grew up in the 1990s, ‘The Mighty Morphing Power Rangers’ ruled our existence. The Japanese import was a huge franchise in the 90s, and actor David Yost played Billy the Blue Ranger—a favorite among the multi-colored crime fighters—from 1993 to 1996.

In a tell-all interview with “No Pink Spandex,” Yost revealed that he is gay. Even more shocking and disturbing than a gay man in blue spandex is Yost’s departure from the show: it was caused by homophobia on set.

Yost said, “I was called ‘f*ggot’ one too many times creators, producers, writers, directors.”

After spending several years out of the limelight, Yost is again perusing an acting career.

2. Empowering, but so sad that "homophobia on set" caused his departure.
Who do those ignorant fuckers think created Hollywierd?
