He also went the route of many a gay before him and studied theater at Millikin University in nearby Decatur, before moving to Chicago and settling into the city’s theater scene. To say it was a rocky upbringing would be an understatement but, years later, Booster has done what any self-respecting artist would do: mined childhood trauma for comedic value.
HAIRY GAY MEN MAKING LOVE MOVIE
“She is who she is and I am who I am.” Parts of his personal life, including his boyfriend, are embraced, but when it comes to his professional life, he points out that she doesn’t need to see “my movie where there's two orgies” or hear his standup routines. “She is wonderful, but there are a lot of parts of my life that she won't embrace,” he explains. It’s taken decades for the relationship with his mom to get to a good place, but Booster is at peace with where things are now. His parents were not accepting, so Booster left home and couch-surfed until he moved in with a family friend. “All of this stuff was happening at once.” The next year, he was outed by his parents after they read his journal describing all the men he was having sex with. “Within a month of being in school I came out of the closet, drank for the first time, tried weed for the first time, hooked up with a guy for the first time,” he recalled to Vulture in 2017. It wasn’t until he switched to public school that the mental dam he’d built to hold back the gay feelings finally broke, flooding his life with new experiences. In his early teenage years, his number one goal was to be a youth pastor, with the goal of repressing homosexual urges coming in a close second. Homeschooled until the age of 16, his Asian heritage was less a problem than his burgeoning sexuality. While comics provided a bit of refuge, Booster’s youth was still overwhelmingly conservative.
HAIRY GAY MEN MAKING LOVE CRACK
One crack in this protective shell came in the form of comic books, which, looking back now, may have signaled his impending homosexuality considering he “idolized anything with a woman on the cover” – gravitating towards Wonder Woman and female Batman characters like Catwoman, Batgirl, and Poison Ivy. No hassles, no fees.” After being GrubHubbed via express mail into the open arms of his family, Booster spent his childhood cloistered in a world of religion. They would just fly a baby straight to your door. As he explained to NPR in 2020, “It was like the GrubHub of babies. For those blissfully unaware of the working of international adoption laws, South Korea was the only country in the 1980s that would fly a baby to the US. Born on the South Korean island of Jeju (the site of “the largest female-led rebellion in Korean history”) in February 1988, he was quickly adopted and sent off to Plainfield, Illinois, a suburb on the outskirts of Chicago. As the saying goes, you have to grind for this view - and Booster has absolutely done the grind.Īs he has joked in his early specials, Booster knew he was gay before he knew he was Asian. Especially if you happen to be a gay Korean guy adopted into a white Evangelical Christian family as a child. With the exception of nepotism babies born to Hollywood power couples, launching three major projects in film, TV, and standup on three of the leading streaming platforms in the span of a month doesn’t just happen. The month of June, much like Fire Island’s fabled underwear parties, is going to see a lot of Joel Booster, which is pretty monumental.

Three days later, he caps off his hot streak honoring “the grand tradition of gay comedians” by playing a rude, gay assistant in the AppleTV+ series Loot, alongside Maya Rudolph and MJ Rodriguez.

I just wanted to show, and this is so corny, gay joy.” As if dropping his biggest and most personal project yet weren’t enough, Booster will also return to standup on June 21 with a Netflix special, Joel Booster: Psychosexual. “That was the driving force behind the project. “Some of the happiest moments of my life have been on that island,” he recalls. As the star, writer, and executive producer of the film, it’s giving major “Bradley Cooper’s A Star Is Born (2018)” vibes in all the right ways, but it’s also a love letter to his experience on the famed gay locale off the coast of Long Island. The first is Fire Island, which drops on Hulu on June 3. Call it luck or chalk it up to God smiling down on the gays for once, but the comedian is on the cusp of a big break thanks to the release of three major projects in as many weeks.
