Shiny Toy Guns- Lesbian/bisexual lead singer?

After seeing the music video for "Le Disko" and then reading the lyrics, I wondered if the female lead singer, Cara Faye, of Shiny Toy Guns might be lesbian or bisexual.

So where did I go to find out more info? Afterellen.com, of course. But, sadly there was nothing. The music video alone should have earned a little mention on here. Maybe there already is? I searched, but there were no results.

‹ Thurs (tonight ) on Sundance channel. Live from Abbey Road. Anyone going to Cambridge Folk Festival (UK)?? KD Lang etc ›

I love the Shiny Toy Guns. and I really think Cara Faye is gay. plus thats a really gay video. And if u saw the L word, Le Disko was played on the show.

 U can check out their Myspace site http://www.myspace.com/shinytoyguns but it doesn't say anything about her being gay

I read somwhere that the lead singer is a lesbian.  Shiny Toy Guns aren't bad, they sound kind of like a mix between Peaches and Goldfrapp.

If you do some research you will find she is not gay matter of fact she has a boyfriend, there is an interview in black and white on youtube.com..she clearly states she has a man so, sorry to disappoint all you ladies that wanted peice.  i know i was disappointed :(

"Carah Faye Charnow (born August 3, 1984) is a lesbian best known as the lead singer of the electronica/indie/rock band Shiny Toy Guns"

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Carah_Faye_Charnow

and they say "a lesbian best known.." as if being a lesbian was her only achievement he he..

i think she's bi, but, oh well, i do believe in wikipedia  ;)

i LOVE Carah! and her voice!!!!!!

as much as I want her to be a lesbian...she's not. Although there is a high possiblity of her being bisexual.
I met this one girl at the hammer head concert in LA who knew Carah's sister and had pictures with the both of them..and she told me that Carah is engaged to some guy and that she used to date tommy lee
so yea...=/
i've seen them perform 3 times..one time at my school! CSUF so that was awesome
she's so gorgeous

Yeah I really wish she was, but I watched an interview where she said one of her favorite people was her boyfriend. Tears, I know.

But, that doesn't mean I can't dream! Which I totally do! About her!

Lyrics don't make truth! When will people learn? This is the same sort of thing that made people think that PJ Harvey was really drowning her child. Stop it!

Err well lots of bisexual girls have boyfriends....

Beth Ditto has a boyfriend - A Tranny Boyfriend! :)

Anyway "On her myspace page (2005) Carah Faye Charnow stated that her sexual orientation was 'UNDECIDED' leading to public speculation that she is Bi-sexual." http://thepenguinswimminghole.wordpress.com/2006/10/25/more-shiny-toy-guns

I've never seen anyone say Orientation: "Undecided" on myspace. I've seen loads of "Not Sure" s though. And I must admit I always take that to mean Bi or Bi-ish. Unless the person's obviously transgendered in which case it can get very complicated. Not to say political.
