Huge year for Bloc Party frontman Kele Okereke, and impossibly I missed every milestone. October 2009, Bloc Party officially on hiatus. January 2010, Kele launches his photo blog, which he updates all the time. March 2010, after all those Bowie and Morrissey hints, Kele finally comes out, quite awesomely choosing to do so with BUTT Magazine. (Kele describes his Nigerian parents as "super Catholic" and troubled by his news.) June 2010, Kele appears on the cover of Attitude, is voted #1 sexiest out gay male musician by LP33, and releases his first solo album, The Boxer. October 2010, Kele earns a Stonewall nomination for entertainer of the year and begins a massive European tour. By end of 2010, Kele claims he will move to Manhattan. (!!)
