My mum said there were a lot of disappointed women in the UK when Freddie Mercury turned out to be gay.
I guess she was one of them
I thought Freddie Mercury was bi.
Sort of. It was just the one woman his whole life.
"Oooo, pain is so close to pleasure"
but also "Fat bottomed girls, you make the rocking world go round."
must be a webpage from 1972
For those that think LGBT folks are currently in hell, back in the day even the most famous entertainers couldn't come out. Despite Elton John and Liberace being up-in-your-grill gay, it was not spoken of. They were merely a little "light in the loafers".
When I was a kid and Rock Hudson got AIDS the world was stunned to find out he was gay. Talk about in the deep closet!
Holy fuck the way you worded this made my dumbass brain think Elton John was dead and I almost had an aneurysm.

That is news to me.
I always knew he was straight! Just like Liberace, that closet-macho fraud
Elton John's stage presence was influenced by Liberace, specially the wardrobe
Which proves that he's obviously not gay.
Spanish: Elton.
English: Theron.
French: Le'ton.
Italian: IlTony!
Mandarin: Chiton Ji.
I'll see myself out.
This is so stupid, I love you.
Thanks. I love you back. Don't tell my wife, she might think she's not special... Spanish Especial, English Special, French Le'speciale, Italian ispeciallie, Mandarin Chispecialji
Number 5 will surprise you
Number 5: boo!
The wham! guy
I still love that David Bowie has to come out as straight.
Well
Mostly
Deeter bowlen from modern talking?
that's how you- whatever..
Surely not Elton?!
Who's next Richard O'Brian?
I'm pretty sure, that people were shocked when they found out Liberace was gay.
Yeah, and I can't believe Liberace was gay. I mean, women loved him! I didn't see that one coming.
Guy has two first names as a name
Wait. What does "gay" mean again?
Bruno Mars?
The Rumor Come Out: Does Bruno Mars is gay?
Cause I'm a rocket maaaannn
He'll grow out of it, just give it some time.
