According to wikipedia qualities of a gay icon often include glamour, flaboyance, strength through adversity, and androgyny in presentation
Using this "template" and carrying on my Gay Icon Day, I thought I would share my top 10
Glamour and Beauty -Lady Mary
Nancy (aka Karen Black) the cross eyed stewardess hero from Airport 75
Tragic Carol from The Walking Dead ( Zombies abound and she is still washing the dishes)
Mrs Frazer killing the hun with an axe in Went The Day Well " Gawd Bless her"
Queen Streep
Dowager Bette
Is he? isn't he Jeremy Renner
Cher
Posh Victoria from The Great British Bake Off
and my number 10 is?.........
This gay thing is flipping complicated!

ReplyDeletegenius... I love these new icons... and I love the Cher one... did you see Futurama last night? they went to visit the 57% of what's left of Cher... genius!
ReplyDeleteIs there such a thing as a heterosexual icon? If so I'd like to nominate Emily Maitliss - the BBC newsreader (From Yorkshire - naturally). By the way what is "flaboyance"? Are all gay icons overweight?

ReplyDeleteDarn, I didn't make it onto your list. Guess I'm not flayboyant enough.
ReplyDeleteIs that Cher? It looks like Jackie Stallone to me.
ReplyDeleteJohn you are so bad to label that photo as Cher....she may be aging but not that badly.
