  Is Sade secretly gay and hiding in the closet?

Sade is celebrating her 67th birthday today. As a number of online tributes attest, she is one of the most acclaimed singers of her generation.

Popular singer-songwriter Sade (Smooth Operator, ...) has always liked to keep a bit of herself hidden from view. At 67th birthday, she remains a woman of many facets.

Sade, a cultural icon

Born Helen Folasade Adu in Ibadan on January 16, 1959, her career spans an arc over many different eras and tastes in British history. Sade's not just a great singer, she's an inspiration, an icon and a successful business woman. At this point in her career, there seems to be little Sade hasn't done.

And we've got a feeling the next 12 months are going to be even bigger and better for Sade as she promises more to come. After all, she's only 67.

Happy Birthday, Sade, you're the best!
