- Tom Jones? Engelbert Humperdink?
- Neil Sedaka...Nope! Gay as paint but never was a sex symbol and he also goes back to the 1950's.
I go with Tom Jones.
- Wayne Newton?
- I know! John Margaret!
- [quote]My first thought was Sedaka...
I can honestly say that my first thought to any matter or question has never once been "Sedaka."
- Wayne Newton always look a butch lesbian.
- Tony Bennet?
- Mick Jagger?
- Van Morrison
- Bobby Sherman
- Mick Jagger never paid young men for sex. He got it for free. He was very much bisexual when he was younger.
- kd lang
- Vic deMoan.
-
I'm going with Tom Jones, also. He's been married to the same woman for 40+ years. He was HOT back in the day!

What%27s%20New%2C%20Pussycat%3F%20OhhhOhhhWoohhOhhhh%21
- David Cassidy?
- Yup. Tom Jones owns this thread.
- Is David Cassidy married?
- No mention of health issues, but lots of mentions of heterosexual dalliances and current performances on wikipedia for Tom, though.
It would be ironic if it was Englebert. My mother loved him and had a huge poster on the door to the attic next to her vanity.
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tom_Jones_(singer)
- I thought of Sherman and Humperdinck, in that order. Jones has admitted bisexuality in the past, so he's out.
And Sedaka's wife has always known, by way of the horse's mouth. He told her way back in the late sixties, to which she - quite the Hollywood Wife even back then - responded "as long as you don't embarass me in public." - which he hasn't.
I know Sedaka's agent - and rentboy procurer - from the 70's (now an oldies show promoter/producer).
- Gordon Lightfoot
- [quote]It would be ironic if it was Englebert.
I know, right?
Alanis
- Englebert seems to still be performing and also had an illegitimate child...
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Engelbert_Humperdinck_(singer)
R18
-
Gordon Lightfoot is dead.......
- Tom Jones. I was having dinner with someone who worked at a hotel he was staying in a long time ago. She said she had to go up to his suite and he was having an orgy. All male. I also heard he and Elvis were an item at one time.
- Bobby Fucking Vinton
- Vinton was never a sex symbol. Tom Jones had a health scare a couple of months ago. But I always thought he tended to cheat on his wife with women of colour.
Mary Wilson claims him as the love of her life.
- R26, the Polish fat broads in my neighborhood used to cream their double knit suits for Bobby Vinton.
One of my mom's hair stylists - the one she went to when she couldn't get an appointment elsewhere - was the president of his fan club.
I guess Steve&Edie are out.
her%20salon%20reeked%20of%20Anais%20Anais%20in%20the%2080s
- Like someone mentioned, Tom Jones acknowledged bisexual behavior eons ago. Sounds like the Eldergay just came out to his wife, TJ's wife would have known when he mentioned it publically.
- [quote]I also heard he and Elvis were an item at one time.
Doubtful. Elvis was a major homophobe.
- Source, r29?
- "My first thought was Sedaka, but was he ever considered a "sex symbol"?
"
Sex symbol? Even I am hearing laughter in the rain over that one.
Neil%20Sedaka
- [quote]Elvis was a major homophobe
One who received gay favors on the DL, like a lot of hard-core homophobes often do, only to then condemn and protect their images.
Larry Haggard Arango Curtis
- I was going to post David Bowie
- Scratch a homophobe R29. Google Elvis and Tom Jones and look at the images. Also Nick Adams. Women were accessories. His early relationships were mostly chaste. Later drugs made him chaste. Lots of stories about Elvis and guys. Even Jones himself mentioned Elvis used to check him out in the shower. What they were doing together in a shower, I don't know.
- I'm not sure about Tom Jones being the singer. The actress who plays the character "Elvira" was on Howard Stern a few years ago and related a story how she started out as a teen showgirl in Vegas. One day, Tom Jones asked her on a date and basically raped her (she said she was a virgin when he did this).
She also said she heard from other showgirls that Tom had a rep for cutting a swath through young females while performing in the NV clubs.
- R32 is, of course, correct; I heard about it too. Elvis received gay favors behind a Missouri Burger King in the early 80s, than was filmed condemning and protecting in Kalamazoo in 92.
- Rod Stewart?
- Gordon Lightfoot is not dead...just Canadian.
- Didn't someone here claim that they tricked with Bobby Sherman?
- Gordon Lightfoot is about as gay as Neil Young.
It's Neil Sedaka.
- Link to the Tom Jones bisexual revelations, please
I've never read about it...
- No.
Sedaka was NEVER a sex symbol...
- Could it be pierced nippled Robin Gibb? He's very camp and isn't his wife bisexual?
x
Lucy%20J.
- BTW I love Johnny Mathis - Am I abnormal for a lesbian?

Lucy%20J.
- Robin Gibb was not a sex symbol either, good GOD woman!!
Barry%20was%20only%20marginally%20one.%20%20Andy%20WAS%20though.
- Frankie Avalon?
- Neil Sedaka was never a sex symbol. Good GOD woman! I think it's Tom, didn't someone on here say he had sex with Tom Jones in an airport somewhere?
- But surely if it were Tom they would have said the person was a sex symbol THROUGHOUT the 70's as this was the height of his fame in the US(?) Also, he's had too many women to suddenly turn 100% gay. It sounds to me like we need to identify a singer who has been (seemingly) faithful to the wife.... like..... I dunno, Cat Stevens? Bob Dylan? Roger Daltry?
(Robin Gibb is sooooo camp; admit it!)
x
Lucy%20J.
- Oh dear. Visit www.johnnymathis and goto the Backstage page. He has a bloke working for him called - I shit you not - Rick Shaw.
Some parents huh....
x
Lucy%20J.
- Was Neil Diamond a sex symbol? He had a great face and was quite handsome in his youth.
- It's not Roger Daltrey. He and his wife had an understanding: she provided children and spent her life caring for them and for Daltrey, and he could fuck any woman he wanted. He's talked openly about it, saying, "Going on tour was like being a kid in a candy store. I couldn't say no, and told my wife so. She's a saint; she understood and went along with it."
Also, a groupie's memoir talked about this transvestite the groupie met who was very beautiful. The Who were in town and the groupie phoned up Daltrey and told him about her gorgeous friend who wanted to meet him. Daltrey talked to the tranny and made a date. At the last minute, the groupie and the tranny chickened out, afraid that Daltrey might get violent when he made the discovery.
- Oh , and Daltrey has a shitload of illegitimate kids he's paid for.
- Please don't let it be DAVEY JONES!!!
Marcia Brady
- Smokey Robinson?
- Andy Williams? Is he still alive? Or how about Stevie Wonder?

- Tony Polar!

- Lucy...
What part of "sex symbol" do you not understand?
- Terry Jacks
- Ringo!
- Totally Bobby Vinton.
- But my nanna loved Andy Williams and loads of people think stevie wonder is hot (str8 peeps anyway). Gimme a break tho' huh..... it's hard for me to figure out what is and what is not a male sex symbol of the 60's and 70's who's still alive ! (fact is... I could have just stopped this sentence at 'male sex symbol').
x
PS. My mind is boggling
Lucy%20J.
- And I thought this BI would be easy, lol.
- Frankie Valli?
- Lucy J, please get lost. You are hideously annoying and imbecilic.
and stop with the x at the end of your posts.
Make no more posts.
- It was Bobby Sherman. Actually, he was just some hot guy on a beach when Sal Mineo started him on his career (after buttfucking him). This is from the Sal Mineo biography that recently came out.
- Interesting, R65.
I've always considered Justin Bieber the 21st century Bobby Sherman, especially when you consider who Bieber's "mentor" is: Usher.
- R41 ... here is a nice string of photographs taken of Elvis and Tom Jones with some other folks. Tom and Elvis stayed friends until his death.
http://photos.elvispresley.com.au/elvis_presley_tom_jones.html
- It's not Bobby Sherman. I read the Mineo bio and Mineo's girlfriend's revelation of finding the two of them together. Sherman played him along until he found bigger fish to fry. I doubt he's about to come out of the closet.
- It doesn't seem Bobby Sherman has been married since 1979.
- Gary Puckett
John Fogerty
Andy Kim
One of the Guess Who, Grass Roots or Three Dog Night.
Art Garfunkel
Joe Simon
Jerry Butler
Joe Cocker
Crosby, Stills or Nash
- Sorry R64 - I can't help it. Would you like to smash my face in?
x
Lucy%20J.
- It's probably someone out of left field like Ed Ames, the guy who same "My Cup Runneth Over with Love".
I hope it is Andy Williams because I think he was the symbol of all-american wholesome music back then, and wasn't bad looking.
Or, perhaps it was the pious boy for all ages, Pat Boone.
I thought Wayne Newton really was a Lesbian. You mean, she was actually a guy? With THAT VOICE? Dunka shane, darlin, dunka shane...
- R70, are you blind by any chance?
- R70, you list contains some of the most ugly gross singers from the 70's. However, not knowing him, I did a YOUTUBE search on Gary Puckett, and he was pretty hot back then. Was he a household name though?
Maybe it was Freddy and the Freeloaders. "Do the Freddy!"
(I'm having fun on YOUTUBE discovering all these 60's and 70's singers - pretty amusing at times).
- I couldn't resist.
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xGxDS10VAbg
- Gary Puckett - really good voice, handsome face (if you take away the 60's Planet of the Apes haircut).
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1e3pl1kmkOA&feature=related
- John Davidson.
- My vote is for Engelbert Humperdink. He has to be gay! And he was a huge sex symbol. my mother LOVED him.
- glen campbell fits the criterion and his illness is widely reported.
- What about Freddie Fender?
- Yes, r39, I did.
Sal M.
- Rod Stewart
gurgle%20gurgle
- Yes, Rod Stewart.
Gallons%20of%20cum
- Nah to the Rod pushers.
Stewart didn't really become a sex symbol until he forced his tight spandex on us in the late 70's.
Do Ya Think I'm Sexy?
People Magazine and your publicist may have.
No.
- Was Lyle Whatshisname from The Carol Burnett Show a singer?
I don't think Glen Campbell was a sex symbol. He was a cornfed good old boy.
Jack Jones?
- [quote]I'm not sure about Tom Jones being the singer. The actress who plays the character "Elvira" was on Howard Stern a few years ago and related a story how she started out as a teen showgirl in Vegas. One day, Tom Jones asked her on a date and basically raped her (she said she was a virgin when he did this).
What's with Elvira? I saw her on a groupie documentary and she told a story of being a little virgin nearly trapped in a bedroom with a horny Jimmy Page. Either she's leaving out details or she was a teenage, cock tease extraordinaire.
- Elvira is a well known slut, she use to do three ways with Elvis and Priscilla back in the day.
- Steve Lawrence
- Neil Diamond?
- Tony Orlando.
Dawn were his beards....
Telma Hopkins
- [quote]Source, [R29]?
I read this a long time ago, so I'm not 100% sure of the source -- it was either in Priscilla's [italic]Elvis and Me[/italic] or [italic]Elvis: What Happened?,[/italic] the tell-all by a guy in his entourage that came out just after he died. One of them had a mention of Elvis freaking out during filming for one of his musicals ([italic]Blue Hawaii[/italic]?) when a male dancer tried to grab his crotch on the sly.
- That doesn't prove that he was homophobic, r91 - maybe he just didn't like getting sexually harassed.
- Bobby Vinton and Neil Sedaka may have been heartthrobs but calling them sex symbols would be kind of a stretch. Tom Jones and Englebert Humperdinck, though, definitely qualify as sex symbols.
Bobby Sherman may have recorded a hit single but he was better known as a TV star.
- Zamfir has been hiding in plain site!
- Well, if we're talking about a blind eldergay...I'd say Ray Charles, but he's dead.
- It's Billy "Crash" Craddock.
- It's Mac Davis.
- evlira said t jones dick was so big he made her bleed. mmmm
- [quote]Stewart didn't really become a sex symbol until he forced his tight spandex on us in the late 70's.
Learn your music history R84. Rod the Mod was well known in the mid-sixties
- R85, you beat me to it. That is a very strong possibility because when Jack Jones was younger, in the 60's and 70's, he was very, very handsome in a Preppy way. I have read of Tom Jones being bisexual for a long time.
- [quote]Rod the Mod was well known in the mid-sixties
As a sex symbol?
The blind item clearly states the guy in question was a sex symbol in the sixties and early seventies. "Rod the Mod" was the lead singer of the Kinks and the Jeff Beck group, hardly a known entity on his own. He was mostly known for his haircut, hence the nickname, which conveyed anything but sex (and don't even bring up the Rod part, that was his name, not his dick).
His solo career began in 1969 and did not trade on sexy songs/moves until the late seventies, which hardly qualifies him as a sex symbol of the sixties and EARLY seventies.
- r101
Ahem
Ray Davies
- Sorry r102, meant to say the Ray Davies Quartet (which later became The Kinks)
Now back to the BI
- [quote]As a sex symbol?
Yes, definately
- The guy in R75 sounds like Geri Jewell.
- My first thought was John Davidson.
- Elvis was definitely queer R91.
That's why they picked on him in school.
- R95, please. Ray Charles swam through pussy every day of his life. Are you just making names up, twat?
- Dick Van Dyke?
x
Lucy%20J.
- Wasn't there a story somewhere about Jill Haworth walking in on Sal Mineo fucking Bobby Sherman?
- Tom Jones was a womanizer x 10, not gay or bi, puleeeze.
It has to be a man who has been married a long time and still is married -- not Tony Bennett, not Bobby Sherman.
- If it is Jack Jones or Gary Puckett, I would LOVE to know.
I'm a fan of both.
- Neil Sedaka a sex symbol?
No. Not at all.
Steve Lawrence?
- Dick Van Dyke neither a sexy symbol or primarily a singer, although he was a song and dance man.
I think it's Steve Lawrence.
- Definitely Steve Lawrence.
Sex symbol.
Singer.
Long married.
Gay.
Rentboys.
It all makes sense.
The only reason the blind item didn't add - married to a famous singer or part of a famous singing team with his wife is that would make it far too obvious.
- Steve Lawrence was never a sex symbol!!
This is Tom Jones.
- Steve Lawrence was definitely NEVER a sex symbol. He was never sexy at all nor even good looking.
- You may not have found Lawrence sexy. Hell, I didn't either.
But I assure you that, like Eddie Fisher who had a similar appeal, a great many women at the time did.
- No, R118, that is not accurate.
And the blind item would never refer to Steve Lawrence as a former sex symbol.
- Tom Jones?
Tom Jones has been a notorious philaderer throughout his long marriage. With other women! Including paternity suits with DNA proving him the baby father.
Try again boys.
- Um, did anyone scroll all the way down in the pictures of R67's link?
I did not know Tom Jones and Elvis were so close... and that pic with that big ole queen Merv?
I can believe this...there's a lot of um, adoration in some of those pics.
- Elton John?

Lucy%20J.
- Dick Van Dyke became a sex symbol to the British due to his brilliant singing and authentic Cockney accent in 'Mary Poppins.'
- He was also rumoured to be a lesbian R123. He allegedly had a fling with Saint Julie of Andrews.

Lucy%20J.
- Paul Anka? He was very much a sex symbol in his youth and is Jason Bateman's father in law.
- Ummmm, Lucy J?
You are not funny. Someone has to tell you the truth.
Go back and retool the act. In case you haven't noticed on your own, you are not amusing anyone here.

Lucy%20J.
- Btw, Glen Campbell -- another womanizer.
- Lucy J is not only not funny, but she/he is extremely annoying, boring, asinine, and inane.
- It's not: 'your a boring twat'.
It is:
you're a boring twat
or
you are a boring twat
- [r128] not to mention multiple marriages
- And your very patronising R130 - do you still suck your thumb dear?

Back again, posting with a fake identity as someone from the U.K. - but is too stupid to pull it off.
GO AWAY!!!
- Damn people, it's Bobby Vinton, the Polish Prince.
- I think it's Fats Domino. He used to drive the fatty chasers crazy in the 60's and I think a few of them actually died running after his car. He's not in the the best of health, but he still fat.
- R136, there are no female chubby chasers. Fats Domino = no sex symbol.
However, Chubby Checker was a lot thinner and a borderline sex symbol.
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=LVQ0MXp-8ds
- r118, I'm 62; I was there. You're incorrect. Chubby cheeks are not nor have ever been "sexy."
r116
- "there are no female chubby chasers"
Uh, duh, r136 was being facetious about Fats Domino being a sex symbol. (And yes there are plenty of straight women who date or marry fat guys. Something like 2/3 of straight guys are overweight)
- The answer is James Darren.
- Richard Simmons?
- Shane Klingensmith?
- Billie Davis?
- Frankie Avalon

- Where are these stories about Tom Jones being bisexual? I definitley missed that one!
I also think its Engelbert. Tom is too obvious.
- Donny Osmond.
- It's the Jones boy. The BI never claimed he was exclusively gay so you can stop with all the "he was a notorious womanizer" protests. Many bisexuals do indulge their sexual appetites voraciously (good luck to 'em).
I dunno about Elvis but I wouldn't be surprised. He definitely had issues sexually, if the Memphis Mafia are to be believed.
Elvira said Tom was hung, R98? The rest of him looks pretty good too (see link)

- I'm not a Tom Jones fan but he's been having comebacks every few years since I was a tween. I've never read any bisexual revelations about him. And he gets a lot of newspaper coverage every time he has a comeback...
I call: BS
- [quote]I thought Wayne Newton really was a Lesbian. You mean, she was actually a guy? With THAT VOICE?
Listen to a song by k.d. lang and then follow with a song by Wayne Newton. Now, try to recall if they've ever been seen in the same place at the same time.
Now you know the rest of the story.
Paul Harvey
- Its Robin Gibb
- Its Robin Gibb, Elvis used to give it to guys, new a producer who worked with him.
- Robin Gibb was never a sex symbol and always associated with a group
- [r140] yaknow It could very well be
From my old neighborhood
- I just looked this up. Robin Gibb looks horrifyingly ill. Stomach blockage my ass.
I'm giving him less than 6 months.
http://www.spinner.com/2011/10/25/robin-gibb-stomach-problems/
- More on Robin Gibb:
[quote]His first marriage collapsed in the late 1970s before Gibb met bisexual Dwina. Indeed, she once said they had an ‘open relationship.’
Sorry for the dailymail link if you're inclined to be sensitive about it.
http://www.dailymail.co.uk/tvshowbiz/article-2049233/Bee-Gees-star-Robin-Gibb-rushed-hospital-crippling-stomach-pains.html
- Dwina does look like the classic hag, no?
- Engleburt Humperdinck - or however you spell it. No question about it. He was a "handsome hunk" and always pinged to me, from the beginning. As for an illegitimate child, isn't justin Beiber being sued for paternity too? Absolutely the best way to seen straight is to be sued for paternity.
- Definitely Bobby Sherman
- It's Fabian.
