In a significant scene in "Queer," Craig's Lee picks up yummy hustler Omar Apollo in a bar and brings him back to his place. It's arguably the hottest moment in the film. Apollo goes full frontal and then shows off his tattooed glutes as he is pleasured by Craig. The openly gay, Grammy-nominated singer/songwriter has release two critically acclaimed studio albums. His penned track, "3 Boys," appears on the "Red, White & Royal Blue" soundtrack. "Queer" represents Apollo's acting debut.
