Michelle Shocked, an alt-folk singer who had success in the 1980s and ’90s...
Looks like she's kinda become irrelevant. That could be why the name didn't ring an immediate bell. Meh. I have to admit that she must have had some sort of fanbase. Maybe it wasn't my thing, but I guess she still did gigs, at least.
In that same 2008 interview she confessed to some “inconvenient truths,” like how the Bible teaches homosexuality is immoral. “But homosexuality is no more less a sin than fornication,” she said. “And I’m a fornicator with a capital F.”
Well, she may be a bit of a hypocrite, but at least she's an honest one.
You know, I'm not gay (more "bi-curious," which some would argue is more perverse). If I was I doubt I'd care what some 80's/90's has-been says about my sexuality.
