Housewife 

You're right Dybryd, WP:BLP says nothing about how we shouldn't mention that he's gay because he doesn't want us to, the fact that he's self-identified is all that matters.  We don't do anything purely because the subject of an article wishes it.  I find it very confusing that Brannan went on that rant against Wikipedia saying he was gay, that he didn't want such attention focused upon his gay identity, in light of the new promotional video for a song on his upcoming album; "Housewife".  If Brannan really didn't want a focus to be on his homosexuality, he wouldn't have singled that song out for promotion.  I wonder if he was messing around when he wrote that blog entry about Wikipedia, he's kind of known for being histri-ironic.
