Rufus Wainwright Makes “Out Magazine” OUT 100

Rufus Wainwright

Out Magazine, one of the leading gay fashion and lifestyle brands, has named musician Rufus Wainwright as one of its top 100 movers and shakers and otherwise notable people in LGBTQ community.

The last time we checked, Wainwright was going vegetarian because he discovered eating meat was much like eating his pet dog. Plus, there was his abnormally high cholesterol to be dealt with.

“It’s been 12 years since Rufus Wainwright released his self-titled debut album to a torrent of critical acclaim. Since then, Wainwright’s career trajectory has been anything but expected,” writes OUT.

“With work ranging from maudlin, sentimental music hall songs to folkie, lyrically nuanced hymns, his inclinations are so unexpected that his records are events—not because of, but despite, his sexuality. Whether he be archly recreating Judy Garland’s campy turn at Carnegie Hall or flexing his more ostentatious muscles in his full-length opera, Prima Donna, the performer is as comfortable churning out splashy ditties as he is caustic odes to modern love.”
