EIGENTLICH HAETTEST DIE ANTWORT AUF DEINE FRAGE SELBST FINDEN KOENNEN!!
wie waers mit der ueberschrift..... MADONNA: LEFTIST REBEL!!
oder dieses.... A BIT OF SOCIAL CONSCIOUSNESS DOESN'T HURT!!!
"Madonna was introduced to the gay community while still a teenager. It was her ballet teacher, Christopher Flynn, a gay man, who first told Madonna that she was beautiful[3]. He also introduced her to the local gay community of Detroit, Michigan, often taking her to local gay bars. Flynn also encouraged Madonna to walk away from her full scholarship to the University of Michigan and move to Manhattan to pursue a career as a professional dancer.[4] Upon her arrival, some of the first people she befriended were drag queens and gay rentboys[citation needed].
After the launch of her music career and her entry into public consciousness, Madonna began to solidify her reputation as a gay icon. In the 1980s, Madonna was one of the first major celebrities to lend her support to AIDS causes. Many of her friends and inspirations, such as her ballet teacher Christopher Flynn, choreographer Alvin Ailey, artist Keith Haring, and photographer Herb Ritts -- as well as her brother Christopher -- are gay males, and some of them have died of AIDS. The song "In This Life" from her fifth studio album, Erotica, is about the loss of Madonna's (gay) friends to AIDS, containing the line, "Have you ever watched your best friend die?"
One of Madonna's biggest hits, 1990's "Vogue", is a song in tribute to the underground dance form known as vogueing which first found popularity in gay bars and discos of New York City. "Deeper and Deeper," a 1992 hit about a young man's coming out, featured a small reprise of "Vogue".
Madonna has been named by The Advocate as "the biggest gay icon of all time" over such icons as Judy Garland, Barbra Streisand, Diana Ross, Bette Midler, and Cher. To this day, Madonna's gay following is one of the most loyal segments of her audience. While her popularity among certain other communities has fluctuated over the years, her gay following seems to stay strongly intact. Madonna credits her maintaining as a pop culture icon to the gay community.......etc...
At a certain moment of her Confessions Tour, Madonna brought two shirtless male dancers on stage, one with a Jewish symbol painted in his chest and the other with a Muslim symbol also painted in his chest, and they perform an intimate choreography together. The singer then asks for peace in the Middle East. This irritated both Jews and Muslims (considering the fact that homosexuality is still a taboo in most of the Middle Eastern Muslim nations)."

~ Why gays can't get her out of their heads ~
...
But why does her music connect with the gay audience? The answer is as diverse as the gay community itself.
John Donnon, music writer for Melbourne's gay newspaper MCV reckons it's all "about hair and make-up and fun and froth and bubbles … and cute boys in the videos … Kylie is a trans-generational showgirl that embraces the glitz and glamour, as much as she does her fragility and tragedy — a bit like your average gay man really," he says.
....
Hm, mir war tatsächlich ein wenig langweilig und evtl. reicht dir diese Antwort ja ;-)
