Is Frank Ocean Gay For Pay?

 “Easiest 100K ever”
"Coming out" instantly turned Frank Ocean into the music industry's hottest commodity!
Christopher Francis Ocean (born Christopher Breaux) also known as Frank Ocean is no longer a struggling artist. Can he thank his coming out as bisexual/gay for his sudden fame? Some insiders are saying that Frank is Gay for Pay, a marketing effort to get money.
He announced that he was gay just before the release of “Channel Orange”. With 131,000 units sold within the first week of Ocean’s album release alone, sources say it’s a plot which proved to be successful, crediting Frank Ocean’s record sales as a direct result of the singer’s closet-exiting announcement. 

Even Frank Ocean himself could be taken by surprise with his overnight success. That’s because the singer recently took to Twitter to announce “Easiest 100K ever”, after making big bucks from a NYC Fashion Week appearances. 
After his album hit iTunes, it became the #1 album in less than an hour!  On top of that, the digital saleare expected to be around 125K (and this is before the disc even hits music stores).

Are we taking away from Frank's musically talented ability, absolutely not, we are just stating that he asked for a little help and got it. 
Anyone can say they are gay, but will we actually get to see him live to be gay in his everyday life?
Only time will tell and maybe next album release he will come out as just being plain ole straight and was just plain confused.

No he won't show us a gay lifestyle because this is just for record sales. Frank isn't gay and his music isn't that good either.
