Is morrissey gay
Morrissey finally admits he's gay, everyone else rolls their eyes.
Morrissey has seemingly finally admitted he's homosexual, decades after the world already stopped wondering and already just assumed.
The former Smiths frontman has put an close to speculation about his sexuality in his new tell-all book 'Autobiography', uncovering his first homosexual relationship was with a man named Jake Walters in 1994, when the musician was in his 30s.

As the frontman of The Smiths, he claimed to be celibate while referencing queer subculture on stage and in lyrics. Since going solo, he has called himself a “humasexual,” and he very briefly discussed relationships with men and women in interviews and his autobiography.
Morrissey has long been a reluctant poster boy for the LGBTQ-plus movement. On Monday, however, images including Lypsinka and a dancing, smiling James Baldwin were projected on the screen behind him, an apparent ode to the gay community.

His Two-Year Romance With a Man
