Chely Wright Comes Out
Posted Mon May 3, 2010 9:01am PDT by Wendy Geller in Our Country

Chely Wright has done lots of important things in her career: Released seven albums, charted numerous hits (including 1999's No. 1 "Single White Female"), started a charitable foundation for music education, and written songs for other artists such as Brad Paisley and Clay Walker.

However, her latest personal accomplishment just may be her most momentous to date. The 39-year-old singer revealed this morning that she is gay, making her the first major country star to come out publicly.

So who might be next?  Kenny Chesney?

My money is on Jason Aldeen....have you seen his album covers?

She says "There has never been an openly gay country music artist"

Hmm - Methinks K.D Lang might disagree with that one - I know she does other styles too - but a lot of her output has been at very least heavily country influenced and she is VERY openly VERY gay!
