EXPOSING FEMALE ARTISTS

WHO QUEER BAITED AND WHO DID NOT
Katy Perry

'I kissed a girl' was def a queer bait although it may have been just her 'curious' phase. "ur so gay" is very problematic but thankfully it didn't get much attention outside of stan culture
However, her great support for lgbtq+ community makes up for it.
Lady Gaga

Although she may look queer that doesn't make her necessarily one. she definetly is sexually fluid but still not enough to be considered 'bi'. one of the biggest supporters of lgbtq+ community of all time
Taylor swift

never queerbaited, crossdressed for a mv, 1 lgbtq+ themed song etc.

unproblematic queen wbk
Nicki Minaj

queerbaited multiple times, claiming she used to be bi but now she is hetero, used homophobic slurs in songs, claims to have a "gay man alter ego". never apologized and doesn't show strong support for lgbtq+ community
Billie Eilish

in "wish you were gay" she wishes her bf (?) to turn out gay bc he under appreciates her. although her intention was never to come off homophobic she may mislead young people who are easily influenced
Rihanna

"te amo" may come off as queer baiting to locals but it's ultimately not. however the queer bait jumped out at the "can't remember to forget you" mv featuring shakira. made up for it when she helped a fan come out
never queer baited, included a gay couple at her "all night" MV, a great ally
big ally, "break up with ur gf" was a passable queer bait considering locals don't usually watch music videos till the end
although she makes little to no noise on stan twitter i decided to include her bc she is one of the biggest activists for transgender rights
