So Gay!

Filed under: Australiastic

75965152_10.jpg

"I'm not fucking gay," Daniel Johns told thousands of concertgoers at the Big Day Out Festival in Flemington, Australia on Monday.

That's such a gay thing to say!

For the past few years, there's been intense speculation about the Silverchair singer's sexuality, which only increased after his recent split from wife Natalie Imbruglia.

To show he doesn't care what anyone thinks, Johns wore a lacy garter on stage.

That's not gay at all!

    He's on my 'cheating allowed' list. Such a shame that I just spent November-December in Australia with the boyfriend before the split. Ha, like I'd have enough energy to find his ass. Still …. he is one hot piece of ass. Up there with Mr. Depp … UNF

    28

    He is NOT gay! I highly doubt anybody has any trouble coming out of the closet anymore…unless it's because they're scared what the hell you're going to say about them. You egg everyone else on, but when they're saying they aren't, you are saying they are. You suck man.

    He definitely fucks guys. Either he is playing with the "labels thing", or he's too mental to realise the flamingly obvious.

    44

    no, it isn't gay at all, gay is a sexual attraction to a person of the same gender, nothing less, nothing more. Not all drag performers are gay and not all gays are drag queens, get a clue! why prepetuate that stereotype and oppress people any further?

    i was about to give a lecture about how he's not gay but then i looked at the picture and saw his nipple rings.

    53

    Who cares if he is gay or not. Should not make any difference whatsoever. He says he not, so leave it at that. And likes it's been said before, there is a such thing as being bisexual! If he is gay he'll come out when he wants too…

    58

    Re: me me me – You're NAIVE if you truly believe this "Being Bi is like kind of being pregnant.
    Either you're straight, or you're gay." I likes 'em both, but I'm NOT straight & I'm NOT gay. I'm 60/40 and sometimes I'm 50/50..depends who I'm attracted to…Guess what? We're ALL different. Some people ARE 100% GAY and some are 100% STRAiGHT, not me. Wrap your mind around that.

    I absolutely love Daniel Johns and Silverchair. have been a fan of theres for over a decade. He's definitely not gay. Just very ambigious. I love that about him.

  65. Sint says – reply to this


    65

    ummmm he did say "by the way ive dyed my hair like this because i'm getting married, not because im gay"

  66. Camilla Rocks says – reply to this


    66

    I was with him when he had his nipples pierced and believe me, he's not GAY. I think he looks much better in nipple rings than earrings. Didn't Dave Navarro have that done….I think it's so hot when a well built young man lets you know that he's in to his nipples….the window of the soul. It only works, though, when the dude's buff. I'd like to see the REAL JOCK with pierced nipples….str8 or gay.

    You know what Perez…Why don't you stick to what you know best. TRASH!!! Leave a class act like Daniel ALONE!!! If you met him like I have you would melt at his mere presence. He's an amazing guy and definitely interested in women. Looking at the comments from alot of your fans it really disgraces me. He's better than this garbage. And everyone talking about his anorexia…why don't you straighten the god damn antenna on your trailers and get caught up with the news!!!! THAT WAS 10 YEARS AGO!!!

    OH and for the record SS GIRLS ROCK!!!!!

    Question 1- You know Mayer swings every way under his sun, you never out him?
    Question 2 - For Adam to be the bear he had to have been with the original bear?

    Speaking of ex- Neighbors. I gave mine a present - 4 green keys to their house. ENVY. Why they made up all the lies. While you believe them you never see the truth. Latching my bathroom window from now on. Adrian must be a freakin monkey the way he climbs trees.

    All the best "Perez" now I found SR I can spend eternity LMAO that he's you. I ALWAYS thought you were gay. I like blue people. Sorry. Greg Goodman was blue. A friend only but sometimes a blue friend is better than a green BF.

  84. Melanie says – reply to this


    84

    I've thought both him and Natalie were gay for years - marriage of "convenience" and all that. He's definitely the type to experiment, at the very least……

    Daniel is very much his own man, but at the end of the day he lives in Newcastle, the sort of town gay folk run away from due to local attitudes…….

    AUSTRALIA ROCKS

    been a fan of silverchair since 1996 … and Daniel has always talked about homosexuality in some form of another…seen silverchair live about 5 or 6 times and he has said some pretty homoerotic stuff. He is probably bisexual.

    To:Perez Hilton

    All u do all day is start gossip/rumors that you yourself probably don't even believe is true. Just because you probably think he's sexy you want him to be gay! I don't know how anybody can stand you.

    If the man came out tomorrow and said he was gay you'd be on the computer in no time saying "i told u so". You are such a child Perez. Let the man be.

    Someones sexuality is a personal subject and to demean the man when he tells everyone to stop and to leave him alone is atroscious.

  91. sookie says – reply to this


    91

    sigh…..he's been called gay his whole life, and he's used to it, and doesn't care,hence the garter. But he's not gay!! lol He was married for 4 years for God's sake. Get a clue! He IS effiminate at times & embraces his feminine side, yes. It's what makes him so attractive (more alpha fuckin males should do the same)
    Long live the CHAIR!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
