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.
