Queer Female Celebrities That Are Cool At Being Single

It’s not all about being in a relationship and these queer celebs show us just how much fun it can also be when you are single.


Azmarie Livingston

Azmarie is known from cycle 18, when 14 models from the UK and USA for the top model title. Azmarie was dating Raven Symone at the time but is now single and she seems to be killing the singledom lifestyle.


Michelle Rodriguez

Michelle has had a few causal relationships but rumour has it she is very much single at the moment and judging by some recent snaps that have hit the press she seems to be loving every minute of it.


Evan Rachel Wood

Evan’s marriage ended in 2014 and since then she has been rumoured to have been dating a few other women, but nothing serious. Apparently, she is concentrating on bringing up her son and focusing on her acting career. Good on her.


Samantha Ronson

Since Samantha split with Lilo she has turned her life around and is no longer going out getting wasted and appearing in our daily newspapers. Instead her DJ career has gone from strength to strength and she has quit smoking. See how positive being single can be sometimes?


Amber Rose

Our favourite out bisexual has been the talk of the town during 2016 for her antics on twitter and her own off romances. However, it seems she is currently single at the moment and really doesn’t need anyone else to make her happy or secure.


Brandy Clark

Brandy has done an amazing job of putting the queer trail all over the country music scene and she is currently on tour. She hasn’t been officially tied to anyone so she is another queer gal managing quite well as a single and taking the world by a storm at the same time.

Daily Juice: Tegan & Sara’s New Single Hits The Air Waves, Queer Black Women Lead New ‘Black Panther’ Comic, Plus Jodie Foster Talks Taxi Driver.

Tegan and Sara have premiered their new single Boyfriend today on Beats Radio,

Sara Quin had this to say about the track:

It’s a pretty straightforward pop song about a relationship that I was getting into with a girl who had never dated a girl before and she had a guy, a boyfriend guy that she was sort of seeing, and we used to joke around that she was treating me like her boyfriend, and I was trying to get her to sort of you, you know, tie it down.

I wanted her to make it official with me. I think that’s pretty relatable. Obviously, being gay, you know, the sort of bit of a gender twist in the song. I get that that it sometimes doesn’t seem immediately relatable to everybody whether they’re straight or gay or whatever but we’ve all been in that situation where we really like someone and we want to make it official, and they’re not ready.”

Ta-Nehisi Coates has been discussing the direction his new Black Panther series is taking, and the fact the comic introduces us to the first queer, African couple to mainstream comic books.

This week in Love & Hip Hop Atlanta revealed that key star Mimi Faust was in a relationship with a woman named Chris Gould. Since then the reality star faced criticism from fans who accused her of being gay on the show simply for the sake of a good storyline.

Even her former partner and co-star Stevie J also voiced his disapproval, telling TMZ he doesn’t want their daughter raised in a lesbian household.

Mimi has now taken to Instagram to address the matter, and lets hope she can put this too bed once and for all.

In 2016 we should not be using gay and lesbian as a way to degrade someone. Someone’s sexuality is not a reflection of their character and more importantly what type of parent they are. The most important thing is that the child feels love regardless of whether it comes from a man or a woman. We should continue the strides we have made over the last 50+ years and allow people to be who they are.”

A 16 years old lesbian from the UK was left “humiliated” when staff mistook her for a boy using the women’s toilets. Ny Richardson from Hull says she was asked to “prove her gender”.
