Yeah he's the one. Stupid thing to say wasn't it?

lowkey said:

DING DING DING!!!! I thought I was the only one who could just flat out see it. You don't have to look at him hard to see that there's some rainbow action going on with him. I dig him, but it's kinda obvious to me.

SCNDLS said:

He has that affect of ALL folks.

purplecam said:

Unbelievably stupid especially in this day and age. Even if he thought it, he could definitely afford to keep it to himself just like that busted fake photo of him getting serviced to throw off the rumors. He broke my gaydar meter a long time ago.

JackieBlue said:

Oh my God, how can you not see it here? He looks like he's trying to be a hard-looking sex kitten trying to purr at you and stay "hood" at the same time. Yeah, whatever Ne-Yo, mmm hmmm. Gaydar is way past the charts right there!!! I gotta say this, Ne-Yo got some serious DSL's and I would so hit that on the strength of that right there.

b/c people r stupid and always assume about somebody else instead of minding there own damn business if he is gay who cares??

that was Yung Berg

bboy87 said:

Nah, Ne-yo said that shit a few weeks ago.

bboy87 said:

Yung Berg said he preferred light-skinned women.

And yo where's your J5 bio? Post it on my thread or I will!

Michael and Prince could never develop muscles like that....But Ne-Yo and Usher can..... ..... ....

Timmy84 said:

Yeah Ne-Yo said light skinned babies were the prettiest babies to an interviewer. I think it's on video somewhere. Same foolishness, different fool.

bboy87 said:

Oh.my.

Eeek!

Mine, too--*especially* my girl dog, who has a fit over guys, anyway!

Ne-Yo's setting off my gaydar too, for sure.

But here's a thought: Perhaps one of the roadblocks (and I know there are several) preventing some black gay performers from coming out is the bitchy, catty gossip about who's queer and who's not. I swear, unless it's a closet case who should've come out years ago, you rarely see the level of cattiness when a white performer is rumoured to swing lavender. Fears of homophobic retribution and career-crushing probably aren't helped any by the, "Like OMG you KNOW he takes it up the poop shoot" tone from the public.

Or not. Y'know.

I don't think Ne-Yo is gay. Effeminate pictures and songs he's demoed that he wrote for women to sing don't make him homosexual. And he has a tendency to talk too much and too quick, so that's just his own stupidity regarding PR that makes his words seem to imply that he's gay, even though they really don't. He wants to be cool so desperately in his speech and attitude, yet he is just making himself more and more drastically uncool in the process with his choices of words.

I will admit, I was shocked to see he's ripped like that (muscles) in the photos online like the one above, 'cause he looks so pudgy in those suits he wears all the time, LOL. Unless.....unless those shots were photoshopped....Hard to tell these days.

I don't think NeYo is gay at all. I think he's got some feminine features and qualities and exploits them - he fancies himself as a MJ and Prince disciple, who both were "in touch" with their femininity.

He wants to be "pretty" so to speak. It's kind of hard to explain and I'm at work right now so I don't have time to collect my thoughts appropriately but no, I don't think NeYo's gay for a second. He's more of a poseur than anything.

chuckaducci said:

Yeah. I agree.

I don't get why people think he's gay either. Because he "looks" gay, he must be gay? That's just weird to me.

Do they?

Who cares? He's one of the very,very few mainstream r&b artists I can actually tolerate.

marnifrances said:

Thats why i said and i will say it again that some prince fans are one of the most hyprocrital fans i ever came across, they are prince fans for god sake, fans of one of the most artists who have a feminie look wearing heels..LOL,I mean when people look at prince they automaically assume he is gay but for prince fans he doesn't look gay, ne-yo is ,the double standard is disgusting, i don't know how some of you determine that he is gay by analzying some pictures, im not a fan of Ne-yo , maybe i dig some of his songs but im not a fan of him, trashing and insulting artists is a habit on this website and its really getting boring..weird people..LOL.

meow85 said:

I agree that there is definitely more of a stigma for gay male R&B/hip hop performers. Hell, look at Luther. Even though he lived in a different time, he coulda came out anytime later in his career and chose not to, despite EVERYBODY knowing.

SCNDLS said:

maybe it was a personal,not public issue for him?

Anyway, he was not every school girl's crush so what did he have to loose?

This be some dumb shit. You think a picture of him showing off his chest and some throwaway comment about Prince makes him gay? Lord have mercy, either you guys are dumb or bored. One or the other. MJ is gay. Craig David is gay. Alicia Keys is gay, but sorry, Ne-Yo is just a corny wannabe. You guys are confusing corny with gay. Granted, that's an easy thing to do sometimes.

how come u think Alicia's a lesbian??
