I think this excerpt from the Blackout 10-year anniversary article sums it up perfectly:

Quote

If you ever wanna see a gay club truly explode, request “Gimme More” and wait for “It’s Britney, *****” to drop — a true declaration of survival and resilience. Ten years ago, magazines had prewritten Britney’s obituary. No one had witnessed someone so famous come undone at the seams so violently and so publicly. The fact that she didn’t die makes those three words feel so much more important now when you hear it today. LGBTQ people have always looked to their musical heroes to provide inspiration or strength. Protest anthems can be weapons or sometimes armor — but sometimes we also want these songs to strut and slap us in the face.

Nowadays everyone talks about pop music in serious terms, but when I was younger being a pop music fan, especially if you were a boy, could get you in trouble. It often meant you were a f**got. I was always defiant about my love of pop, but after Blackout came out, I refused to feel ashamed to talk about pop albums in lofty ways. Without it, there’s no way I would have been so bold as to launch my label, Tri Angle, with a Lindsay Lohan tribute album knowing very well how it could open me up to ridicule. It was ultimately a middle finger to people who looked down on pop music, and other people (mostly straight men) telling me what was real.

This! I never really considered her a gay icon, but no doubt she is loved by the gay community. 

Britney undeniabley doesn't discriminate against anyone, and I like to think the army is the same way. Gay, straight, black, white, purple, it doesn't matter. The army's love for quality music trancends all the labels:groovin:
