Fabiano Anthony Forte (born February 6, 1943), professionally known as Fabian, is an American singer and actor.
Forte rose to national prominence after performing several times on American Bandstand. He became a teen idol of the late 1950s and early 1960s. Eleven of his songs reached the Billboard Hot 100 listing.
He was drafted, but rejected, for military service during the Vietnam War. According to USMC Lt. Col. Arthur Eppley, Forte was declared 4F (unfit for service) after presenting a doctor's note stating that induction into the Army could cause him to develop homosexual tendencies.
In 1982 a jury found him jointly liable for an accident in a 1978 car race in which he was injured. He received $32,000 in an out of court settlement.
Also in 1982 Forte was arrested for sticking his cigarette into a passenger who asked him to put out the cigarette in a non smoking section of an aircraft. The passenger turned out to be a District Attorney but no charges were laid in the end.
In 1973, in order to raise his profile he posed nude for Playgirl magazine. "I knew it was a mistake the minute I saw the thing sold in a paper bag," he said later. "I could barely live with myself."
