Greatest Gay Singers of All Time

The Top Ten
1 Freddie Mercury Freddie Mercury (born Farrokh Bulsara, 5th September 1946 - 24th November 1991) was a Zanzibari-born British singer of Indian descent, songwriter and record producer, known as the lead vocalist and songwriter of the British rock band Queen. He also became known for his flamboyant stage persona and four-octave vocal range. Before he became a singer he has been in 3 other bands (Ibex, Sour Milk Sea, and The Hectics). He died on November 24, 1991 from bronchopneumonia as a result from HIV/AIDS

Freddie, of course yeah! He was above average! Who can't adore Freddie's work? Are we nuts? I also like a lot Elton John, another genius, and from the gay women K.D. lang is great. I think more people should listen to her songs because her work is special. It shouldn't matter how she looks like, she is awesome as a singer, people shouldn't judge her for her masculine looks, her songs are very emotional and she has a great quality as an artist.

Freddie Mercury is the biggest African / Indian rock star in history. He's also the first gay rock God. It doesn't into some people but I think it would matter to Freddie.

Not necessarily gay he was bisexual), but you know what, we can let it all slide.

He is gay and it makes me jealous, because I'm a woman who is in love with him.

2 Rob Halford Robert John Arthur "Rob" Halford is an English singer and songwriter, who is best known as the lead vocalist for the Grammy Award-winning heavy metal band Judas Priest and famed for his powerful wide ranging operatic voice.

The lead vocalist of Judas Priest is gay and he has stated that. He has revealed,"I'm just a gay man who sings in a heavy metal band." However, Halford is also one of the songwriters of Judas Priest.

I try to block out of my mind that he's gay. That's sick.
