Rockin' Gay Moments: No. 23

Dusty Digs Girls and Boys

During an interview with the London Evening Standard in 1970, Dusty Springfield bravely revealed, "I'm perfectly as capable of being swayed by a girl as by a boy." The "White Queen of Soul," who has a penchant for gowns and heavy eyeliner, forever solidified herself not only as a gay icon but also as a fashion inspiration to drag queens everywhere.

I was at a party in London in 67. Dusty came in and i asked who she was. Someone told me she had just released her first album and was going to be a star. I remember her as a beautiful lady with a wonderful personality. I am glad she is still going strong, her being bi is a plus in my book . I am just straight. I hope the best for her in future endeavors.

Gary, I'm sorry to say that Dusty passed away from cancer years ago. She had an original, smoky style that is still great to listen to.
