The article is from a year ago, but hasn't been posted about, here before. www.marieclaire.com/sex-love/relationship-issues/articles/new-asexual-movement.
(Publisher's Note: The Marie Claire Article appeared in the summer of 2010. Asexual News opened its doors in February of 2011).
The article starts out fine, talking about how Sarah Beth Brooks realized that she's Asexual. Then the article mentions Twilight & abstience. (Instead of quoting bits and pieces of the article, the author has decided to just describe the article, as you can read the whole article linked above if you want to know exactly what it says, word for word). It also mentions, in the same paragraph, that Asexuality is not just feeling 'meh' about sex, it's a movement.

Kreayshawn, a recent entry into the rap business, recently discussed her sexuality with the San Francisco Bay Gaurdian. SF Bay Guardian reporter Amber Schadewald wrote that the rapper could easily claim bisexuality but prefers she would rather refer to herself as Asexual.
Kreayshawn, as is everybody else, is free to identify however she chooses. Kreayhawns statements become suspect through no fault of her own, but rather because of the activities of other celebrities in the past. Clay Aiken, former American Idol star, is the most notable celebrity who claimed Asexuality only later to come out as Gay.
