Gaga.
Taylor.
Katy.
Beyoncé.
Miley.
There's 5 off the top of my head.
Rihanna, however, who is in your signature, did not.
Or did she?
Willing to take receipts.
OT: IDK.
Female artists are just more interesting in average, imo.

Everybody is aware gays are more likely to support pop girls, they know that.

You are aware that pop girls have far more straight fans than gay fans, right?

If I was born during MJ, David Bowie etc. I'd be obsessed, trust me.
Now I am not that interested in any male, however I love Justin Bieber and I am rooting for him, I like Bruno etc. but none of them is having that MJ, Elton John, David Bowie etc. AURA that makes them KING.
Lady Gaga is my MJ.......

It's usually just the effeminate twinks though.

I love pop music. The generic and the weird.
I also love all the other musics.
Pop girls are just something fun to talk about. They are more interesting to talk about than male artists. They also seem to be more covered in the media

As to why to do gay men closely follow female musicians, I guess it has something to do with gay men relating more to women than men. It is not only in music, but in other forms of entertainment as well. In addition to that, the image behind some of these pop girls is usually out there and unlimited - which is something most gay men wish they could be. I don't think they want to be girls, as some people would have you believe, but that they want to be a little more, erm, I guess free is the right word? Have you ever seen or been to gay pride?

I agree !

I am a bottom and I like to listen to Guns n' Roses, Alice in Chains, Megadeth, Danzig, etc.
I respectfully request that you don't generalize all gays. It's not an effective way of thinking. @Vato

Well most of them are. Hear one, you've heard them all.

My, how impressive it is that they showed support AFTER the change in public perception.
Meanwhile these "generic, air-headed" popgirls went out of their ways and risked their careers to push LGBTQIA rights/visibility.

This isn't a thing. Everyone knows Maroon 5 are what they are.

Apologies if it came across as generalizing. I realize not all gays fit this stereotype, but from personal experience a lot of us do (ATRL being a prime example).

Most gays in real life are into indie/hipster underground EDM though
Atrl exists because of those who are into pop girls, so obviously most of us prefer pop girl music
A lot of gays are into visuals and pop girls fit into that category. It's just the same as gays obsessing with arts, fashion etc. What's wrong with that?
And what about most straight guys intentionally avoiding female music? Yet OP doesn't have a problem with that?

Madonna, Grace Jones, Britney Spears, Christina Aguilera, T.a.T.U., Carrie Underwood, Dolly Parton, Judy Garland, Diana Ross, etc. Female singers stepped out for the LGBTQIA community decades ago and have been supportive since. The average male vocalist is just now hopping on that wave now that it's a needed part of your image to compete commercially
In reality, that's a lot of why gays "prefer" women. These women tend to "prefer" us, too, and not just see us a paycheck like Nick Jonas, for example.

LBR, most female stars jumped on the gay bandwagon for the exact same reason - it's good business and they know their audience. Only a few major stars really advocated and worked for the gay community when it was still risky - Madonna openly embraced her gay fans and Elizabeth Taylor started the first celebrity AIDS fundraiser and was the first celebrity to hug an AIDS patient in public.

I don't know. It's probably in the brain. Like how most gays don't enjoy watching sports.

Because gays have more feminine soul than straight men.
We all fantasize about being on stage, but we always imagine ourselves moving like pop girls.
