I was curious about this so I decided to see which artists I could find, I could be missing many or have accidentally added an artist so please lmk if I need to make changes. I'm going by artists who have somewhere in their wikipedia that they are out as queer.

Jess Glynne’s other number 1s besides Rather Be should be here too

Jessie J could be added as she is abrosexual.

You might need to add Westlife's 14 #1s

Should t.A.T.u be included? I thought the schoolgirl Russian lesbian thing was an act

I may not be right but I think I recall one identifying as heterosexual and the other not.

Andy Bell of Erasure (who reached #1 in 1992) is openly gay.

Julia claims to be bisexual but also unfortunately identifies as a homophobe, while Lena is straight but also an ally (or at least she was around a decade ago, but who knows today).

Ah yes - I think it was Lena I was thinking of.

Should Cliff Richard be added?

Madonna is queer??

And I didn't know White Town was? I can't see anything about it in his Wikipedia either unless I'm being blind?

Bebe Rexha identifies as "fluid" so I'm Good (Blue) could be added!

For some 50s representation Johnnie Ray & Tab Hunter come to mind.

Tatu?? LOL

As mentioned above, Julia Volkova is bisexual so she counts for the list.

Madonna is unlabelled but has confirmed that she has slept with and is attracted to women from wikipedia: 'in 2022 she retrospectively said that she has slept with "a good handful" of women throughout her life', 'Three years later, in an interview with MTV, she admitted that she has had sexual attraction to other women whilst maintaining that she does not think about labels'.

White Town is genderqueer, sourced from their mastodon bio and they've talked about it before, not sure what their pronouns are though

Long John baldry in the 60s, one of the new kids on the block, ferry aid, scouse aid, band aid II i thought Whitney was practically confirmed, S Express, Freddie Mercury in 1993 is missing

I can't find any source for Prince being anything other than hetero though?

But genderqueer isn't the same thing as queer?

From the FAQs on White Town's website:

I love ‘Your Woman’ BUT what is it about??? Are you a man/woman/transsexual?

1. Being a member of an orthodox Trotskyist / Marxist movement (as I was for three years in the 80s).

2. Being a straight guy in love with a lesbian (ditto).

Hey – are you GAY?

Well, not so far 😉 But I don’t actually believe that humans are bi, hetero *or* homosexual.

We’re just sexual. We’re very like our horny cousin, the bonobo.

So that means that I’m very *pro* gay rights because I consider freedom of sexual expression to be a basic human right.

Forgive my ignorance if I'm wrong!

Why are Spice Girls, Gaga and Madonna on this list? Not sure being an ally counts as a queer artist.

Also shouldn’t Harry Styles be here or does queerbaiting not count?
