Singer Macy Gray discusses kissing
another woman in her video for the single Bang Bang.
“That was the director's idea,”
Gray told lesbian entertainment blog AfterEllen.com.
“But you know she's fun. She's a friend of mine. She's a model.
So I'd have kissed her either way, you know? Boy, girl –
whatever!”

Gray added that she enjoys performing
at gay venues.
“I just found that mostly in
particular, gay audiences really know how to go [to] a show,” Gray
said. “They really know how to party and, you know, I don't know
if your sexual preference decides what kind of music you like, but I
just know it's always supercharged, like when we just did a couple of
Pridefests this last summer. So I'm excited about that, you know,
and I think there's this desire to party and hear great music and
great art and that's the gay and lesbian community, you know?”
Bang Bang is the first single
off Gray's 8th studio album, The Way, scheduled for
release October 7.
