Michael Stipe
Reporters frequently questioned the R.E.M. front man about his sexuality in the 1990s. In 1994 Stipe described himself as “an equal opportunity lech,” and said he did not define himself as gay, straight, or bisexual, but that he was attracted to, and had relationships with, both men and women. By 2011 he was leaning more towards men. Speaking with the Observer in 2011 Stipe said, “On a sliding scale of sexuality I’d place myself around 80-20, but I definitely prefer men to women. I had sex with, and enjoyed sex with, women until I met someone that I fell in love with, and who is now my boyfriend.”
