Justin Gaston Does ‘Electric Youth!’ Magazine
“Feel the power! You see the energy”
Great news for Justin Gaston — 20 year old underwear model and manfriend to 16 year old Miley Cyrus … all of his pandering to the Cyrus family has finally paid off — homeboy scored his FIRST magazine cover! Tho, this mag, Electric Youth!, is prolly not the sort of mag that the überreligious Cyrus family might readily approve of … especially considering … oh, just see for yourself:
Celebrity magazines have been reporting that Justin Gaston, Miley Cyrus’s 20-year-old model boyfriend, has moved into the Cyrus family home so that dad Billy Ray can “keep an eye on him.” But it seems the young fella has been slipping out of the compound. Away from the Disney-sanitized environment that attends a hit commodity like “Hannah Montana,” young Mr. Gaston is getting quite the reputation for racy photo spreads. First came a series in the Spring 2009 issue of V Man, an edgy men’s fashion magazine which posed him awkwardly straddling a tennis net and grabbing his crotch.
For a reminder of those hawt VMan magazine photos, click HERE.
Now he is on the cover of the even more avant garde Electric Youth! magazine, a frankly homoerotic remix of the teen-mag Tiger Beat genre dedicated to up-and-coming male models. (Although the new issue does also feature a handful of young female models, including Dakota Johnson, the daughter of Don Johnson and Melanie Griffith.) Electric Youth! (or EY!), named after the Debbie Gibson hit, is the brainchild of a Madrid-based creative director named Luis Venegas. Each model is interviewed in the style of a teen idol and the text, in contrast to the revealing photos, is positively restrained. Gaston is only referred to as Miley’s “best friend,” for example, and the aspiring musician is allowed a generous plug for his MySpace demo page. Dakota Johnson’s famous parents aren’t even mentioned. EY! does not have a web site and you won’t find the ad-free mag on news stands. Although it nominally has a US cover price of $18, in reality it is stocked by only a few trendy European boutiques or distributed privately among the fashion media. Which is probably just as well, since if he saw it Billy Ray might wonder why Justin’s red Speedo had to be quite so tight.
Actually, I understand that EY! is sold at American Apparel stores (which kinda makes sense) and it does have a website at ElectricYouthMag.com. Personally, I’m very intrigued to see what other photos of Justin Gaston might be hiding inside this particular issue of the magazine. Truth be told, the young man on the cover of this magazine does not strike me as the type of gent who would be interested in a romantic affiliation with someone like Miley Cyrus. I’m just sayin’. That being said, I can see how someone like the young Miss Cyrus might not even be aware how telling a photo like this of her manfriend Justin Gaston really is … in fact, I could see how she might giddily want to tack up a photo like this in her bedroom so she can moon over his beauty whenever she likes. HMMM. Yeah, I just really can’t see this Jiley thing being the real deal … but I sincerely doubt that anything will change between them. Their union has proved to be a boon for his modeling career. I wonder what magazine covers the lad will score next?
After the jump, check out a fun blast from the past video that goes along PERFECTLY with this post …
Zappin’ it to ya

First! Secondly, I agree with Trent: that dude is gay, so everyone hollering statutory rape can calm down! The question is….does MILEY know he’s gay? HA HA HA!
March 6th, 2009 at 8:34 am
Yeah, definitely just decided that he’s gay and Miley just wants to be a hag. They are definitely not doing the nasty.
March 6th, 2009 at 8:36 am
Yuck!!, How is he a underwear model??????? This magazine cover looks like the cover of Child Molestor’s Monthly.
March 6th, 2009 at 8:38 am
That doesn’t even look like him! He is a tool.
March 6th, 2009 at 8:42 am
Alisa: HA HA HA HA!!! SO true! Child Molestor’s Monthly!!! That’s awesome! Honestly, tho….what do the Cyruses have to gain by letting this tool into their home when he’s so OBVIOUSLY using them and specifically their underage daughter for publicity and a career jump-start? I really don’t understand Hollywood at all. It’s like you have to check your dignity at the door before you come in. Is that what it is? The most pathetic and insecure are the most famous because they’re the only ones who’ll do anything at all to get there? Weird.

@Huh? — I assume the photo is an older photo, the magazine is more recent
March 6th, 2009 at 8:46 am
Does anyone know if that is a current photo of him? That photo looks dated.
March 6th, 2009 at 8:47 am
That photo looks like someone who just made a date with creepy Uncle Charlie.
March 6th, 2009 at 8:51 am
I agree, Huh? Why do these people sell their souls and dignity? Why do PARENTS sell their children’s souls in Hollywood?? It’s so disgusting! I really used to like Billy Ray, but his parental choices are so crazy! He plays this good old country boy shtick, but it’s such a crock. He’s sold his daughter so he can have a career again.

Thankfully I skipped right to Debbie’s awesome video – I totally had that vest, the bandanna-as-headband combo with the hair carefully styled with a lot of Aussie Sprunch Spray… thanks for the blast from the past, Trent!

That cover looks looks like its meant to appeal to the type of dudes that lurk around junior high schools…or broads that teach in them.
March 6th, 2009 at 9:23 am
YUMMY!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! HA! YUM FRIGIN NUMMY!!!!!!!!! WHO IS HE AND WHERE CAN I GET HIS NUMBER????!!!!!
March 6th, 2009 at 9:37 am
OMG Debbie Gibson!!! Wow I used to dress just like her! Do you remember the “Electric Youth” perfume sold at all Venture stores?!!!
March 6th, 2009 at 9:41 am
aaah, trent! it all makes sense now! I couldn’t possibly imagine how this couple could maintain a (supposedly) chaste relationship, unless of course he’s gay!
March 6th, 2009 at 9:43 am
Um, yeah. Gay face. Embrace the gayness, Justin! People will love you more than for “embracing” Smiley Crapus.
March 6th, 2009 at 9:51 am
Yes, now it all makes sense. Having seen that picture on THAT mag….Miley is safe with Justin. Nothing to see here!
March 6th, 2009 at 10:05 am
@whatever — um, YEAH! http://www.perfumebonita.com/special/1286.jpg

He’s so pervy for dating Miley when she was only 15!
March 6th, 2009 at 10:35 am
@ Blah Girls! Ummmm…he’s gay and they aren’t “dating.” They’re hanging out because Justin knows Miley’s family always alerts the paps whenever they do anything, and he can be seen and talked about and get some work to further his own career.
March 6th, 2009 at 10:39 am
That looks like a photo form the 80’s !! OMG the colors, the posing, the background… He looks like a cast member of Saved by the Bell or Menudo haha Soooooo 80’s !
March 6th, 2009 at 11:25 am
Wow that video! Wasnt it great when girls could be famous and Not be a skank!
March 6th, 2009 at 11:46 am
@trent…I bow down to your awesomeness!
March 6th, 2009 at 12:14 pm
It does make sense Miley is his cover up!! Dads not worried cause he and Miley both know he is gay!!! Its okay Justin gay is fab just come out already we will love you more!!! Sorry Miley your not his type hehehe :)
March 6th, 2009 at 1:01 pm
That is the most tacky, funny mag cover I have ever seen – and I lived through the 80’s and 90’s Teen Beat phase! I kinda feel sorry for him … I doubt he approved that cover.
March 6th, 2009 at 1:38 pm
Justin hs moved in to the Cyrus house in Billy Ray’s bed! don;t worry guys, Billy Ray will not let Justin touch Miley with a ten foot pole, because it’s only Billy Ray’s pole that touches Justin!
March 6th, 2009 at 3:26 pm
Hanson? Hanson? Chris Hanson? Does anyone know where Hanson is?
March 6th, 2009 at 8:42 pm
No way Trent! Wheres the love for Foolish Beat, and Shake your Love?? They’re the BEST Debbie Gibson songs of all time! lol
March 6th, 2009 at 8:54 pm
I definitely agree with Trent on the gay thing… really. And he’s 20? Seriously? That pic makes him look like a wierd man-child. His body hair in odd places doesn’t help at all…
March 7th, 2009 at 12:45 am
[...] what a good mom. Whether or not Zac is actually doing the nasty with Vanessa Hudgens (I kinda smell a Jiley situation between Zanessa as well) I think it’s great that Mama Efron is advocating safe sex for her [...]
March 7th, 2009 at 8:14 pm
ewwwwwwwwwwwwww.my god.
March 8th, 2009 at 5:06 am
ohh myy god! he’s gay! so that’s why billy ray allows him to hang out with miley!! :O maybe that’s why miley kept laughing on the ellen show when she was asked if they were dating! wow!
