Belinda Carlisle

Being famous for fame's sake wasn't the goal when I co-founded the Go-Go's. I just wanted to sing and have a laugh. ”

For me, it's simple: everybody deserves the same rights. ”

My son has made me more politically active when it comes to LGBTQ rights. When he came out, I worried about what the world was going to be like for him. ”

I've been blessed from the very beginning with the large gay audience, and I'm flattered. They always have the best taste anyways and are at the forefront of fashion, music, and style. So I'm really happy about that and very flattered. It's a good following to have because it means you're doing something right. ”

When I started to make money, I went a bit crazy. Once, I went to the race track and woke up the next morning owning a horse. ”

I just liked the idea of being engaged. ”

I mean, in rock music terms I'm like a dinosaur. ”

When I recorded 'Sun,' I wanted to do something with more of a modern sound. I've never done anything like it, and it was fun for me to sing, but I'm not really a dance person per se. However, I would love to hear that song in the club. I think it's a really good dance song. ”

I do a lot of solo work in Europe and the Far East, and my main passion is traveling. ”

I love looking out in a crowded theater and seeing a sea of gay men. ”
