Frank Ocean opens up about "coming out" and his sexuality in the GQ's "Men Of The Year" issue. Find out what he said inside and see Nicki Minaj on "GMA" dishing on "American Idol" and her admiration for Mariah Carey.
In the latest issue of GQ magazine, Frank Ocean talks to the magazine about his childhood, his sexuality and his decision to "come out" in such a big way. Also, he and his Odd Future friends model the latest sport coats for the season.
Growing up, he revealed that he hasn't spoken to or seen his father since he was 6, and his grandfather (a recovering drug addict) served as his paternal role model. He described him as a quiet man who spoke very little and always seem to have a lot on his mind.
He credits his hard-working mom with inspiring his own work ethic. He said beecause she wanted to become middle class, she worked and went to school (gaining a master's degree from University of New Orleans) and took Frank to all of her classes.
And when it comes to sex and sexuality, Frank opens up without revealing too much. He doesn't seem to believe in labels or putting himself in a box but is painfully aware that others will do this and it will impacts his sales. However, he seems comfortable about his choices and wants people to focus on his music and creative side....not who he's sleeping with.
