An Analysis of the Problems Zeki Müren's and Bülent Ersoy's Queer Masculinity/Femininity Performances

Öz

In Turkish culture people like to watch/listen musicians who owned ara- besque and Turkish classical music as their music genre and we can show Zeki Müren and Bülent Ersoy as greatest examples for that kind of music. About these two musicians, there is another important issue. Both of them confused Turkish people’s minds about traditional gender roles in Turkey; Zeki Müren known for his sexual orientation for young boys and feminine style and Bülent Ersoy had a gender-change surgery in 1981 -in England- and become a first trans-gendered singer in Turkish Republic. Both, Ersoy and Müren faced with problems in creation of coherent relationship between their musical performances and private life. To add, their stand- point in front of LGBTI individuals differs into Turkish society. This ar- ticle aims to explain and analyze the reasons behind several problems which related with queer performances of Ersoy and Müren by giving a brief description of their backgrounds and speeches.
