== Music == [[David Bowie]]'s androgynous appearance and open bisexuality was reflected in a some of his songs, in particular "[[John, I'm Only Dancing]]" (1972). The original video directed by Mick Rock, featuring [[androgyny|androgynous]] dancers from Lindsay Kemp's mime troupe, was banned by ''[[Top of the Pops]]''.<ref name="Strange Fascination">David Buckley (1999). ''Strange Fascination - David Bowie: The Definitive Story'': pp.169-170</ref> The single was not released in America, being judged too risqué by [[RCA Records|RCA]]<ref name="The Complete David Bowie">[[Nicholas Pegg]] - The Complete David Bowie: pp.112-113 </ref>. Bisexual singer/songwriter [[Tom Robinson |Tom Robinson]], famous for his 1976 single "Glad to be Gay," was known as a homosexual activist until he fell in love with and married a woman. A number of his songs, such as Blood Brother (1990), have bisexual themes. As a bisexual activist, he now runs [http://www.bothways.com BothWays.com]. In 1995, [[Jill Sobule]]'s song "[[I Kissed a Girl]]" was met with considerable success. The song told the story of flirtation between two suburban female friends, both with male partners. In 2003, [[Britney Spears]] staged a kiss with [[Madonna (entertainer)|Madonna]] (who also kissed [[Christina Aguilera]] in the same performance) on an [[MTV Video Music Awards]] performance that would continue to fuel bisexual chic, and at the time many news and tabloid outsources referred to it as "[[lesbian chic]]", [http://www.mtv.com/news/articles/1477729/20030828/spears_britney.jhtml?headlines=true] [http://extratv.warnerbros.com/dailynews/extra/09_03/09_02c.html] since it was clear from her impending marriage to [[Kevin Federline]] that Spears was certainly not a [[monosexual]] lesbian. The kiss is seen as a publicity stunt but helped to fuel the ever-growing trend. In November 2006, [[Paris Hilton]] appeared in public with her hand on Spears' left breast.<ref>[http://www.playfuls.com/news_00001729_Britney_Spears_Groped_By_Paris_Hilton.html Playfuls.com - Play your life!<!--Bot-generated title-->]</ref> In 2004, the popular alternative punk band My Chemical Romance released their album, Three Cheers for Sweet Revenge. In the album, one of the songs, "You Know What They Do To Guys Like Us In Prison," touches on bisexual relationships and prison rape. Gerard Way stated that the song was mainly focused on a game of truth or dare, where he was dared to kiss Bert McCracken of The Used. At many of the band's live shows though, a kiss is often shared between Gerard Way and Frank Iero. Iero has stated that he is not gay, and Way’s sexuality is unlabelled, but both stating they "just like to play around." Also, in the music video for, "I'm Not Okay (I Promise)," Iero is seen kissing Way on the cheek, where he says "Trust me." In 2008, [[Katy Perry]] released a song called "[[I Kissed a Girl]]", though it is unrelated to the Jill Sobule version. It was by received Billboard Top 40 success. The song is about a girl's curiosity about kissing another girl, though she has a boyfriend.
