Stevie Nicks On Her Gay Fans And How She Would've Come Out To The Media<\/b>
\nStevie Nicks has long courted a sizable gay fanbase<\/a> — not that it’s ever occurred to her in any formal way. <\/p>\n

“I can’t say that I’m so glad that gay<\/a> people like my music, because I have never looked at gay people as different from any other people<\/a>,” the singer-songwriter, 66, tells Out magazine’s Michael Martin. As for what she’d have done if she herself were gay<\/a>, she added, “The second that I knew, I would have said, ‘OK, everybody, this is how it is, and either you still like me or I don’t care.’ I think that if you are gay<\/a>, you just have to say ‘It’s great!’”<\/p>\n

Nicks is currently enjoying the throes of a comeback, thanks to appearances on “American Horror Story<\/a>,” a world tour with Fleetwood Mac and a mentoring stint<\/a> on “The Voice.” She’s gearing up to release “24 Karat Gold: Songs from the Vault<\/a>” on Oct. 7. <\/p>\n

Of her newly-released song, “Mabel Normand<\/a>,” which was written about a 1920s silent performer<\/a> who she described as “the rock star of her time,” Nicks noted, “I wanted it to be something that somebody having a problem with drugs can sit down and listen to 5,000 times. Try and let it be an epiphany for you, 18-year-old person that is doing a lot of coke and smoking heroin and taking ecstasy and is on a dead-end road to hell.” <\/p>\n

She also took time to sound off on Night of a 1,000 Stevies<\/a>, noting, “I read about it and told my dad, ‘It’s a huge party that is thrown by fabulous gay<\/a> men<\/a>. They love my clothes and my fashion and my songs, and they all go to it and play my music and lip synch!'”<\/p>\n

She added, “One day I’m going to show up, and they are not going to know it, because I’m going to be dressed as the best Stevie ever.”<\/p>\n
