Too many comments here about her sexuality, what she left behind was her legacy, What a voice just lets remember how great she was. RIP The late great Dusty Springfield

I don't care if she was bi, gay, Chinese, whatever. She was the most distinctive, incredible singer. IMHO, she and Stevie Nicks have the most instantly recognizable voices. RIP Dusty girl. You are missed!!!

Say what you like, but regardless of whether Dusty was bi or 100% gay or if her sexuality was fluid and sometimes she was one thing and sometimes another thing she was still the first (THE FIRST) British pop star to come out as queer. And why can't people just leave it at that and give the woman some respect?

the "man" was Carole Pope and Dusty was 100% a woman's woman.

The Toronto musician at the time was Carol Pope. She lied about the gender.

O.K. so she was bi-sexual, I figure that her business and if somebody has a problem with that, that is their problem, She had such a beautiful, though husky voice, which made her music stand-out. Rock on and R.I. P, Dusty with so many wonderful singers of the 50's and 60's. Loved all of your music. Micheline Kribs, Rolla,MO

First of all, nobody's 100% anything. Dusty herself said she was bi-sexual, so we'll have to leave it at that. I take for granted she knew herself better than anyone else. Not that it matters one iota, of course, because Dusty's legacy will always be her music, and that's what we'lll remember most of all. There was nobody like her, that's for sure, and I honor her memory today and always.

She may have been. But Dusty's affair with Carole Pope in 1981 apparently only lasted about 6 months, although some reports say it was more like a year. If Dusty tried to keep it secret that would have been a strain on the relationship considering how out Carole Pope always was.

How is she lying about her sexuality here? In an interview with Ray Connolly for Evening Standard in Sept 1970 Dusty made it clear she was bisexual when she said: " I'm as perfectly capable of being swayed by a girl as by a boy." She indicated she was bi in several subsequent interviews in the 70s.I know many people think she wasn't really bi but actually totally gay but that's beside the point, at this time in 1981 she may have possibly had plans to marry a man.

She was 41 here. . I'm really sorry to say that I dont think she aged very well ~ she looks a lot older than 41.. It's not a criticism. Just an observation.. She was wonderful.
