Most, if not: all of the main female characters are gay.
One of the most popular speculations, fans noted whether the girls in the entire franchise are actually homosexuals due to their tendencies on being paired by fans. The examples below are considered as the very closest thing to have evidence.

Eli Ayase + Nozomi Tojo
TBA

Nico Yazawa + Maki Nishikino

 * The Mogyutto "love" de Sekkin Chuu! PV feature Maki giving Nico her valentines chocolate.
 * A scene from Love Live! Once Again has both Maki and Nico wearing casual outfits at night (with the latter's phone call to the others) implies that both of them are dating.
 * In the first cut for Secret Shortcuts, Nico admittedly declared that she loves Maki, wanting her to walk home together sometimes.
 * In The School Idol Movie:
 * Nico is shown to have her face sticking on the music room's door window with her being jealous of Tsubasa Kira teasing Maki.
 * Maki does the Nico Nico Ni gesture in the pre-credits sequence.
 * In the "On The Night Of The Fireworks" chapter from the School Idol Diary manga, both Nico and Maki are holding hands together at the end of the chapter.
 * In the 18th chapter of Love Live! School Idol Festival ALL STARS' main story, Nico teases Maki's smooth skin while applying sunblock onto her.

Mari Ohara + Kanan Matsuura
TBA

Ayumu Uehara + Yu Takasaki

 * In Everyone's Dream, My Dream, Ayumu is shown to have an anguished declaration of love to Yu when she asks whether Setsuna Yuki is much more important than her. She also pushed and held Yu onto the sofa, lying down face frontwards with her legs locking onto hers. If this wasn't subtext-y enough, both of their phones also stacked with each other.
 * In the "Rainbow Days" Honest Photo Essay Series ~Ayumu・Shizuku・Karin~ book, most of Ayumu's monologues from the first segment are about her feelings towards Yu, complete with the usual flirty dialogue from the Anime here when the latter shows up.

Kasumi Nakasu + Shizuku Osaka

Karin Asaka + Emma Verde

Umi Sonoda suffers from Heterophobia.

The female singer in Love Live! The School Idol Movie is actually Honoka Kosaka's future counterpart.
There are many differing fan theories about the woman who helped Honoka while she was lost in New York City.
 * One theory is that she is simply a future version of Honoka, as their personalities, actions and appearance have a resemblance to each other's. They both consider heavy issues, are both clumsy, and have blue eyes and orange hair (albeit different shades). Near the end of her second appearance, the woman also tells Honoka to fly, "just like you did back then", referencing Honoka jumping a large puddle at the start of the movie, which suggests that she knew about some parts of Honoka's childhood. This sequence, however, was shown almost immediately afterwards to be a dream, which makes perfect sense, because it involved Honoka teleporting from the middle of Tokyo into a plain next to a small pond, far from any buildings or city sounds. Additionally, when Honoka asked about her singing career, she informs Honoka that she and her friends had formed a group in Japan. However, the group was later disbanded, strongly implying about the dissolution of μ's.
 * The other theory consists of the woman who is actually Honoka's even older sister, which is previously mentioned in the September 2011 issue of Dengeki G's Magazine.
 * The final theory was that she was simply a figment of Honoka's imagination. No other individual within the movie saw the woman, and, in fact, when Honoka turned to thank her after finding her way back to the group, hoping to introduce them to her, she was no longer there; no other member of the group saw her. In the alleys where she was performing, no-one was watching her--or even acknowledging her. In New York, she was the only Japanese individual Honoka encountered aside from her own group. In Japan, she featured heavily in one of Honoka's dreams, although that could just mean that she left a heavy impression on her.
 * This is slightly incorrect, in New York, there are a group of people who cheer when she finishes singing, meaning she was clearly seen and heard by those people.
