Dude Looks Like a Lady. Lady Looks Like a Dude

These days people are always going on about how Lady Gaga challenges notions of gender identity. We're not sure she actually does that. Why? Because she dressed up as a dude for Japanese Vogue? OK. But, most of the time, she's just an outrageous woman (who, make no mistake, we love). Nobody ever actually bought that "She's a man!" business the tabloids were pushing last year did they?

Anyway, it's nothing new. Crossdessing, gender bending and natural androgyny have long been rock n roll staples. Some go to great lengths and aren't fooling anyone. Others don't even have to try. Here's a look at some of those who have entertained and confused us over the years.

No, that's not one of those animatronic ''female companion'' robots being built by the Japanese. It's Bill Kaulitz of Germany's Tokio Hotel, the prettiest boy in modern rock. Seen here with his identical twin brother, guitarist Tom Kaulitz, in case you were wondering what the boy version might look like. (credit: Getty Images)
