In a recent interview with AfterEllen.com, singer Lesley Gore has come out as lesbian. When she was famous in the 1960s for songs like “It’s My Party (And I’ll Cry If I Want To)” and “You Don’t Own Me,” she had not yet realized her orientation - that didn’t come until a few years later, when she was in her 20s. Although she had never come out officially, the five-page interview mentions that she has been with her partner for 23 years and has hosted the “In The Life” television series twice.
