Prepare to beam with P-R-I-D-E! Beaming with Pride celebrates, embraces, and spotlights songs by LGBTQ musicians or allies.  Here, we provide background and insight into musicians, analyze, plus go gaga over the decadent bops served up.  When songs dictate deeper and more transcendent discussion, we ensure the point is fully articulated.  All styles of music are welcome, whether the songs are classics or brand-new. So, without further ado, in the 89th edition of Beaming with Pride (2025), we highlight “Boys At The Gym” performed by Nieri.

“Can you spot me? / Get behind me?”
Oh, snap! Something tells me the ‘get behind me’ part is a prime example of a double entendre. Cutting straight to the chase, we all know that the gym is GAY, particularly in the hands of the handsome and talented (and likely, horny) Nieri (Nicolo Nieri). The danceable, infectious, and sensually charged “Boys At The Gym” arrived in the summer of 2025 in all of its gay, hot, sweaty, and muscular glory. But hey, gym-ing is a lifestyle – not just summer – so, this bop is FIT 💪 (🤭) year round! It is the second track from Nieri’s EP, Fun!. Nieri penned this fitness-driven dance-pop joint with Ivan Kinell and producer Ingrid Monica Hägglund.  Prepare to be thoroughly titillated!

The production work is sleek. The gay club vibes are strong from the get-go. The rhythmic, sharp, minor-key synths set the tone. Also, amplifying this gym of an experience is a hard-hitting, danceable beat. Slay, gays, slay! The star of the show, Nieri, sings with a beautiful tone as he conveys his gym experience. It begins with health, supposedly:  “I’ve been having troubles with my body / The doctor told me to go training / On Beverly Boulevard.” Beverly Boulevard, huh? That’s ultra-specific and, unsurprisingly, located in one of the gayest places in the United States, West Hollywood! If that hint wasn’t enough about the gayness of “Boys At The Gym,” Neiri’s training is soundtracked by Britney Spears. GAY!

More lyrics confirm Nieri’s gay gym experiences.  He asks, “Do you wanna train me / Like I’m an animal? / If you give me protein / We can be physical.”  Huh. Something tells me the protein he references isn’t store-bought – it’s all natural 😈!  After getting the body to bodying, Nieri asserts, “Finally made it to the trophies / We’re fit, shiny, and hot.” In WeHo is there any doubt the boys are fine as hell? And, like any good gay, not Nieri mentions ‘em, in an objectifying fashion: “Boys at the gym, working out, looking hot…” Ooh-wee.  Oh, and for good measure, in case we didn’t already know, Nieri tells us, “I love my boys at the gym /… I fuck my boys at the gym.”  Who didn’t see that one – wait for it – cumming 🤭! Nieri not only tickles our fancy but titillates our pickles 🥒 on “Boys At The Gym”.  This one’s hot, boys… and girls… mostly boys, though!
