Okay My Gay is the second studio album by Brazilian new wave band João Penca e Seus Miquinhos Amestrados. It was released in 1986 by RCA Records. It was the band's most commercially successful album, selling over 250,000 copies; another source states it had decent radio airplay but sold poorly. It spawned some of their most famous hits, such as "Popstar", "Lágrimas de Crocodilo", "Romance em Alto-Mar" and "Universotário". The album cover, signed by Rico Mendes, shows a Cadillac diving into a wave. The car was inspired by the Cadillacs seen in some The Beach Boys album covers and the wave was a page from a calendar that Selvagem Big Abreu had at home. The pictures inside the booklet were taken by Flávio Colker in Ipanema at 4am following a show. It was the only possible time of the day in which they would find the beach empty and sufficiently light. The album's title is the answer the band would give to producer Ronaldo Bastos whenever he suggested they named the effort Pencomania.
