Faker lead singer Nathan Hudson set the record straight about his sexuality in this weekend’s Sunday Magazine. Nathan told the magazine he hopes his admission will make young gay teens feel comfortable with their sexuality.
“My association with being gay was that it was bad and dark and not good for you. I had trouble finding people to look up to,” he said.
“I’m happy to talk about being gay for that kid in the suburbs who’s 15 and scared.”
It’s refreshing to hear someone speak so openly and candidly, especially from the macho world of alternative rock. I hope Nathan’s right and his words can inspire young people struggling with their own sexuality.
