None whatsoever - my motivation is pure and simple nosiness =)

He's not gay. It's a rumor circulated to protect himself from someone
powerful who's jealous that his mia noi is a big fan. I think most
Thais know about this.

Of course Thongchai is gay. He had the same boyfriend for many years.
His fans know it, and it doesn't stop "Bird" from being a Thai
superstar.

That is a good thing about Thailand. They have gay pop stars, prime
ministers, generals, and nobody cares.

Well, not generals for sure. :) But in general of course I agree. You know
how Bird usually refers to himself as 'Phee Bird', as in older brother for is
fans. Girls in my office call him 'Paa Bird' though, as in 'aunty Bird'. :)

Cheers,

Well, the story I've heard from several Thais is that it's a ruse to
protect himself from the ire of a very jealous someone who wouldn't
want to see his name printed here.

Vagabond and Chanchao are right. He is gay and that is known to more than
just several Thais.

[Garth Miblish]

Well, perhaps. I've never liked his music at all or paid much
attention to his life. My wife thinks he's hiding from someone, but
she also tells me to stop complaining about CP hotdogs or Big Krap
will have me shot.

U heard from ur wife is correct. But thais are afraid to say bad things about monarchs. I too also heard that he's been exiled for years concerned with one of the monarchs. Bird's girlfriend had been taken away & he'd kicked out. After that case, rumours spread bird is so-called gay till today. Every thai including his fans also say he's gay but no body tell precisely who's his bf, who shares his bed together with. I think, it's safer for bird being assumed as a gay. He chooses his own way to be forever superstar not married life. But whatever his sex preferences is, his forever fans including me always love & support him. Being a gay is not criminal, better than being a online gossip teller, i think.

Ok.so do u know who's his bf ? I want to know eagerly . Every single accusation must have sound evidence . Even if u point out someone as his bf, who can approve whether it's right or not. The office girls who call him as aunty bird used to be shared their bed with bird or otherwise how can they prove it. As the saying goes '' seeing is believing'', right ? So if u have ur soundness, share with me any time.

Sorry but your story does not make sense at all. Bird has long been on the side of the monarch. He has always been actively involved in projects celebrating the Thai monarch (singing, performing). There was once someone photoshopped a picture of red-shirt(anti-monarch group)-associated political party into his picture to claim that he was a red shirt. (This was so stupid and ridiculous.) He showed the original photo proving it was photoshopped and denied being a red shirt. He said in the interview that he is not associated with any political party, he's only loyal to the king.

It's funny in the other post you stated that "every single accusation must have sound evidence." Where is your sound evidence for your so-called "correct" story? And then you went on to make a remark about online gossip? Hypocrite much? Thai people are certainly not afraid to say bad things about the monarch (yourself as one example here).

Finally, Bird's style in recent years seem to lean towards being gay than straight. That plus the fact that he never seem to have any relationship with any woman, does make it believable he's gay.

Now, what I strongly believe that who he falls in love with does not matter at all. It has nothing to do with his career, his talent, his ability to sing or the fact that he has a very good demeanor. If he was gay, none of these would change. He's still the same person we know and love. In Thai society, it's hard to be gay because of all the prejudices (high profile people, even though rumored and known as gay, never publicly announce they are). So, if he is gay, he may not want to come out. At the end, no matter who he loves, what his story is, he has surely earned all the recognition he has today and he sure deserves to be a well-respected superstar.

When he came back from exile. One of his first songs was reggae ambassador (third world) . But I can't find any reference to it at all. It was being played all over BKK and one of us had a cassette tape with it on. I'm not dreaming am I? Simon.

For your info, Bird's old story with monarchs was happening many years ago before you were born OK?
In your words there's absolutely nonsense and make me laugh is for being a gay Bird has no relationship with any woman and so he is definitely a gay, right? 😂😂😂
If so show me and approve who's Bird's bf,
With evidence not by your imagination 😂😂😁
