Poll question: Poll for queer men only!!! |
|
Who is the star you picked to be your lifelong gay icon???
(please only vote if you're a queer man)
If your icon is not one of my shortsighted choices please post a reply listing your star and tell us why, why, and WHY!
If your icon IS one of my choices please post a reply anyway and tell us why SHE is your diva. BTW, since I was 14 mine has been Marilyn Monroe.

I've worshipped him for as long as I can remember. I'm a tad obsessed, heh. Definitely my idol.

6. Ah yes, how could I forget Andy!!! |
|
His silk screen of Marilyn was fabulous.
His "Mao Marilyn" was shocking to her fans but politically astute.

I admire his art that said, he's also a fellow Pittsburgler and Slovak and to be honest, I really had no idea he was gay until I read it a while back. Yes, I know, I am an idiot, good ole boy.

19. I would occaisionally go to the"factory" |
|
I ran around with Bridet Berlin and Ondine. I knew Gerard Malangas cousin in school in Queens. Andy asked me to make "movies" since it did not pay, I declined. I was around in the early days od Edie Segwick. Andy was very sweet.

18. Thats who I was looking for.. Bette Midler is mine |
|
Love the voice, love her movies, love her acceptance of gays. I couldn't tell you how many times I've reinacted the scene from "The Rose" where Bette was at a gay bar, doing a show with drag queens impersonating Barbra Streisand, Diana Ross, and Mae West(I think?) doing the song "Fire Down Below" I love that scene!!!
