Influential LGBTQ+ Celebrities And Their Partner

27. Barry Manilow & Garry Kief

Barry Manilow and Garry Kief's connection started as a business alliance. Kief is Manilow's manager, but after working together for many years, the couple surprised the world by getting married in April 2014. Their wedding was private, but they did not file their marriage certificate, so the beautiful wedding was not legally binding. The ceremony took place in Palm Springs, California.

Many are already aware that Manilow is a successful singer who sang such now-classic hits as Mandy, Can’t Smile Without You, and I Write the Songs. Having received an Emmy, a Grammy, and a special Tony Award, Barry Manilow's artistic genius and vocal abilities are what make him such a talented performer. While Kief is working as the president of Barry Manilow Productions and Stiletto Entertainment Group.
