* Quizilla (before it was overrun by bad anime fics and relaunched to many a user's agony) was particularly infamous for "bandfics" that were wish fulfillment for extremely horny girls, starring characters from any band that featured a moderately attractive male, from Simple Plan to All Time Low and EVERYTHING in between.

* Essentially the basis of Pete Wentz's entire career. Both within his own band, [[Fall Out Boy]], and between all of the bands on his label. He loves to [[Shipper on Deck|encourage fans to pair him]] with lead singer Patrick Stump, nuzzling his shoulder during performances, and has had the following (joking) remarks to say about Patrick on the band's official website Q&A [http://www.falloutboyrock.com\]:

*** Panic! at the Disco frontman Brendon Urie and now former lead guitarist Ryan Ross fought rumors for several years that they were really dating because they always had the stage-gay dialed to eleven. Probably Pete's idea.

**** The entire Fueled By Ramen/Decaydance group (and their friends) are pretty easy to ship, seriously. Bandom is more or less synonymous with early to mid 2000s pop-punk/emo/whatever because of them.

* The cult British indie band The Libertines are probably only remembered now as being the group that brought supermodel-chasing drug-botherer Pete Doherty into the public eye. That band's dissolution hinged on Doherty's fractious (although not gay) relationship with guitarist Carl Barat. The band's self titled (and final) second album [http://i239.photobucket.com/albums/ff315/libsdom/Carl%20and%20Peter/libertines.jpg cover] sees a vacant, mildly distressed Barat cradling a collapsed Doherty.

* Shipping [[Andrew Hussie]] and [[Axis Powers Hetalia|Hidekaz Himaruya]] became a thing that happens in mid-2011; it might be tongue-in-cheek given it's been stated to arise from both being [[Trolling Creator]]s, but [[Poe's Law|who can really know with these things]]?
