Really Gay

[c9]

Courtesy of Ernie*: What do all these artists have in common?

• Elton John (listed twice)
• kd lang
• Scissor Sisters
• The Indigo Girls
• Pet Shop Boys
• Rufus Wainwright

...obviously the answer is they're popular, well-adjusted (well maybe not Elton), and OK for your kids to listen to. Well, maybe not these people's kids. But whatever.

What I wonder about is these artists who appear on the same list:

• The Doors
• Metallica
• John Mayer (probably due to this blog post)
• Barry Manilow
• Eminmen (a Freudian slip if I ever read one)
• Nirvana
• The Killers
• Frank Sinatra
• Panic! at the Disco

That reminds me -- is Landon Pigg gay?

(His MySpace brags about his new video on Logo, which is kind of odd for a straight artist to brag about.)

Oh you kids these days with your made up words like myspace and logo and Pigg.

(no idea. never heard of him/it/them)

Huh. I'd thought one of Metallica's members was gay, but it turns out I'm wrong. Doesn't mean he's not bi though. :-)

Or just closeted. Remember, Metallica is trying to appeal to a certain demographic.

why is frank sinatra on that list?

Following some links and you find that a "Reformed Homosexual" is now preaching that God hates gays and wants to convert homosexuals to straight. Not to mention the possible future link on the site of homosexuality and pedophilia.

Surely Cindi Lauper is at least gay friendly is she not?
I just e-mailed Donnie to let him know that.
I hope he writes back.

Why is Nickelback on the list???

I love that Ted Nugent is on the list for propogating homosexuality, and the reason given is "loincloth".

Heh.
