In addition to talking about how he wooed Gwen Stefani in New Orleans and how he regularly plays tennis with Roger Federer…he opened up about the ‘experimental’ time in his teen years when he had a relationship with a tranny.

Details: Last year, the cross-dressing pop singer Marilyn revealed that he was romantically involved with you in your teens—an assertion Boy George first made in 1995. Why haven’t you talked about those claims?
Gavin Rossdale: I think at the outset there was a sort of fear—that was right at the beginning of Bush, and I didn’t want it to be part of it. It felt like a cheap shot, so I was like, “I’m not getting involved.” I’ve never wanted to appear closed about it. It’s not something I’ve talked about really because it’s always been in the glare of a tabloid world. It’s just one of those things: Move on. When you’re 17, Jesus Christ. I don’t think there’s anything strange about any form of—you’re learning about life. It’s a part of growing up. That’s it. No more, no less.

Details: So it was just a one-time experimentation?
Gavin Rossdale: Yeah. That was it. You have to know what you like, and I know what I like.

Courtney said that she and Gavin had an eight-month affair and she had a “vision of marrying Gavin Rossdale one time… We were like, ‘Let’s go spend our rock star money.’”

Courtney described Gavin as “lovely” and said she knew that he was with Gwen.

“Everyone gave me so much s— because Gavin sounded like a lot like Kurt….” she said. “But man, he was such an Adonis in his day! He got good in bed … something happened. Maybe Gwen taught him, for all I know.”

“You mean he was having sex with you while he was with her?” Stern asked.

“Everyone … yeah … and a few other people,” Courtney said. “We didn’t have a lot of pressure on each other, but we did like each other quite a bit.”

She is such a joke anymore and it’s so sad. She had the opportunity to be respected musician but she’s turned herself into a laughing stock. I’m sure she had sex with Gavin, probably while he was “dating” Gwen…but I’m sure for him this is more of a walk-of-shame-booty-call than the girl you bring home to meet mom and marry.

The former Bush frontman will portray a gothic rocker, loosely based on Kiss frontman Gene Simmons, suspected of murder.

This won’t be Gavin’s first time at the rodeo. If you check out his IMDB page, it looks like he’s done more acting than music makin’ over the years. My favorite character he’s done was Balthazar in the Keneau Reeves flick Constantine.

Back in the ’80s, he was a wild child who wore black lipstick and partied until all hours at London’s underground clubs. And the most important relationship of his life may have been with another androgynous, hard-partying man. As In Touch has learned, Gavin had a long-standing secret love affair with Marilyn — a male rocker who looked remarkably like Gwen. “He was the love of my life,” Marilyn tells In Touch.

Though Boy George broke the news of Gavin, 43, and Marilyn’s tumultuous romance in his 1995 book, Take It Like a Man, Gavin denied it, stating, “I wasn’t dating Marilyn. We were, and still are, good friends.” At the time, Marilyn denied the affair, as well. But today he says he did it only because Gavin asked him to. “He was just becoming successful in America,” Marilyn explains. “I agreed to lie against every grain of my being.” Now, Marilyn wants to set the record straight. In an exclusive interview with In Touch, the British pop icon details the love affair that spanned the early ’80s. “We were together five years,” Marilyn says. “But it felt like 40.” (Gavin’s rep denies the story.)

This just might be true. Check out these pics of Gav and Marilyn in the 80′s. Wouldn’t you swear Gavin was a girl? He was doing nothing to disquise how feminine he looked.

Gwen is still rocking the stretchy pants as she gets her gorgeous body back, but check out the Dior stillettos!
