Female singers with a strong gay following.

[becca]

Okay, I don't get it and I don't know if I ever did, I can't keep straight which female singers are gay community icons anymore. Often it just seems like they all are! I have a Cass Elliot webpage from a lon g time ago now and once in awhile I get comments about how it's strange for me to like her music so much, or that I must be either a lesbian or a gay man posing as a woman because I have a Cass Elliot page. I guess the first one I heard this about was liking Judy Garland and second probably Bette Midler. Then it was Cher. Then it was Stevie Nicks! Now I have no idea... is enjoying Barbra Streisand music screamingly gay now? Nancy Sinatra? Dusty Springfield? Karen Carpenter? Is it just people drag queens can impersonate with some success like Tallulah Bankhead or Carol Channing? Are there drag kings doing Wayne Newton, Jim Neighbors or maybe even Tiny Tim? I have never heard of drag queens doing Cass Elliot, but maybe they do? Oh well, I decided not to care and went on loving Cass' music, and also Nico, and if drag queens aren't doing her they really should be, she could be so much fun! "You're such a claaaawn." Well, if there is a list I would still like to see who is on it, or rather who people think are on it.
