Starting to think that this is the influence of the Black people in those art, advertising, fashion, and luxury brand spaces.
Have to assume that a sizable % of the Blacks in those circles are not heterosexual. When they give their input, or make decisions, they will advocate for gay imagery.
Taking advantage of the social climate to shoe horn Black faces in those ads. Blacks are nearly invisible in those types of ads, though there is a wealthy segment of Black people who consume those products. And what they lack in number, they make up for in trend setting/influence.
