10) Elton John

Elton John had been topping the charts and gracing fans all over the world with his incredibly daring outfits for more than 2 decades before he officially came out as gay to his fans in 1988. Elton had previously came out as bisexual to fans in the late 70’s and was even briefly married to a woman before coming to terms with the fact that he wasn’t bisexual at all, but was definitely, 100 percent gay.

But the singer recently revealed to the media that he only officially came out back in 88 because he was surprised that everyone didn’t already know he was gay. It’s tough to believe, but we guess there were some folks out there who just wouldn’t believe it until they heard it from the source. Since then Elton has continued to be a successful performer and even gone on to have a very happy and successful personal life as well. He has been with his partner David Furnish since 1993 and the couple plans to wed in May 2014. They also have 2 adorable little boys together who were born via a surrogate.
