The new show The Prancing Elites Project seems to have some mixed reviews when it comes to men dancing in leotards. This new Oxygen show introduces five homosexual, African-American men, Adrian Clemons, Kentrell Collins, Kareem Davis, Jerel Maddox, and Timothy Smith who just want to dance and show off their J-Setting moves.

But it seems that the men's hometown in Alabama and some viewers aren't very supportive of them danicing around like women. In the words of Jerel, these Elites just want everyone to know, "It's ok to be yourself."

In the season premiere, these fellas -excuse us, ladies- also recieved some encouraging words from RHOA, NeNe Leakes.

Leakes told the dancers, "I didn't know that I was going to come here and cry. You guys are so beautiful, so amazing, and so freaking talented."

But everyone doesn't see it the way Mrs. Leakes see's it. The Shade Room fans had some deep words for the dancers.

aj_godling "The show sucks. No bias involved. It was just trash. Even the Prancing Elites Facebook page started a conversation."  

megand____ "The only reason white people support it is because they want to turn as many of our black men gay so we can't reproduce. They are truly entertained by this stuff."  

tiffxotiffxo "My opinion doesn't matter. I want to live like God desire us all to live.and the only way we can do so is by reading the bible (whole bible), praying and be willing to receive God. if we're born into sin then why would i be confident in my fleshly feelings and ways.i need God to change my mindset daily and guide my life because one thing humans seem to forget is being a Christian is a battle everyday with our spirit and flesh.So i just pray for us @1_jolly_jointaprilsolovely All they wanna do is dance . Not like their fighting or being ratchet like the normal shit on tv these days" 

deesphotos "They can be gay and dance but why do they need a show. Enough is enou[gh]"
