Beyonce to appear on gay mag cover
04 Dec 2006- Beyonce Knowles is set to shock fans after
landing on the cover of leading US gay magazine Instinct.
The sexy singer/actress agreed to give her first national gay interview to the
publication to promote her new movie musical DREAMGIRLS.
In the article, she reveals a gay uncle made her turn her back on stereotypes
and embrace homosexuals.
Knowles also makes it clear that her strict religious upbringing never made her
turn against gay men and women, despite the church's opinion that homosexuals
are abhorrent to God.
She explains, "I was raised by my uncle who passed away with AIDS a couple of
years ago. He was my mother's best friend.
"He brought me to school every day. He helped me buy my
prom
dress. He made my clothes with
my mother. He was like my nanny. He was my favourite person in the whole world.
"I never mixed Christianity with how I felt (about him). I am about faith and
spirituality more
so than religion. Doing right by others and not judging." The singer also
insists she'd have no problems if a son of hers was to come to her with a gay
confession: "(I'd say) I love him for the person he is with no expectations
back."
