Dis' Guy? No fuckin' way. I dont believe it.

[Chigworthy]

Does he come out of the closet every 10 years to promote an album?

[BeerBandit]

All that I believe in is wrong. Next thing you'll tell me that Freddie Mercury was gay.

how can the man who sang about "fat bottomed girls" be gay? that's crazy talk!

[A.J.]

I haven't been this shocked since Ellen came out.

[reillyluck]

what's next? gay governors?

[Hottub]

My favorite singers are all real men!

The Album

[marcpsych]

As Andre the Giant Fez would say...

"No S!"

[Ritalin]

the year or the book?

1984 was a book?

[TheMojoPin]

Ah, DOY.

I totally made pretty eyes with him at the DC Tibetan Freedom Festival. ROWR.

[PhishHead]

who don't you make pretty eyes at??

[TheMojoPin]

who don't you make pretty eyes at??

Jam bands.

[IamFogHat]

Maybe he has memory problems, cause I remember around the time the drummer left I read an interview and saw him on behind the music or something where he was like, 'Ok, again, I've said this before, I'm gay, stop asking.'

[PhishHead]

Jam bands.

you would so make pretty eyes at me if I was in a jam band.

[LaBoob]

I refuse to believe it!

Oh please this is silly. Next thing you will tell me is that Elton John is gay too.

[Badinia]

It's not possible- if Michael Stipe were gay, a strapping young hetero guy like Fez wouldn't be a fan.


See, I've trapped you in a clear crystalline box of LOGIC!

[TheMojoPin]

I'm with everyone who is convinced he's said this before. I know for sure he said he was bi way back in the early or mid-90's. I'm more concerned wih whether nor not the new REM album is actually good as opposed to the unlistenable piles of shit the last two have been. BRING BACK THE QUALITY REM, PLZ.

[BeerBandit]

Maybe I'm confused as to what "gay" means. Isn't it another word for "happy?" Being in a homosexual relationship couldn't possibly make anybody happy...

except for Satan.

[SinA]

REM's Michael Stipe---Gay!

All other Michael Stipes----Straight!

[ralphbxny]

This is Bullshit

[pennington]

So I guess the old saying about guys get into Rock for the girls isn't true?

[TheMojoPin]

I'm inconsolable.

Beautifully executed, BB. Beautifully executed.

[danner1515]

Yeah, I'm a little baffled as to how this managed to become a news story. It's pretty old news. I remember watching the R.E.M. Behind the Music like eight years ago, and they talked about it on there. In fact, it even showed Michael Stipe saying, "I think most people who know me know I've been a gay man all my life."

[Bulldogcakes]

Everybody hurts . . . sometimes.



in his case its when he sits down.

[keithy_19]

I won't believe this. Though I guess the album title 'Monster' could have been a giveaway...

[Doctor Manhattan]

I'm inconsolable.

I'm sorry. :sad:

[AKA]

R&F'S Black Earl Douglas---Black!

I guess some get into rock for guys that act like girls.

[PapaBear]

I was hoping YouTube would have the SNL Stipe bit where he dressed up as a fairy and said "I'm a fairy". No such luck.

[Judge Smails]

This news shocks me to the core and signals the end of the world as I know it.

[Alice S. Fuzzybutt]

In college he made me all dreamy.

I thought he came out with this "news" ages ago.

[BeerBandit]

Yeah but for some reason calling it "olds" never really caught on.

Now stay tuned for the 6 0'clock olds. That's just crazy talk.

[OGC]

I refuse to believe it!

He's very gay, but their first 4 albums are awesome.
