Kelly Clarkston is not a Lesbian! Not that there's anything wrong with that...

Clarkston's "old maid" status (at least in the realm of pop stars) has led many to question whether or not she is a lesbian. This seems to happen to stars a lot. Kevin Spacey comes to mind. The public proclamations suggest that 1) these celebrities care very much about the public's perception of their sexuality and 2) being labeled homosexual is still considered very taboo in our society. Makes me wonder how many people have gotten married just to avoid the stigma.
