«I'm still thinking of a way

There have been rumors about homosexuality for a long time. Now the singer has commented on it.

Shawn Mendes interrupted his concert in Colorado on Monday to give a brief speech. He wanted to announce the “truth” about his sexual orientation.

He told his fans: “My sexuality has been around since I was very young and people have been talking about it for a long time. I think it's silly because I think sex is a very complicated thing, It’s hard to categorize. It always feels like an intervention into something personal, something I discovered within myself, something I haven’t discovered yet and am still discovering.”

“The real truth about my life and my sexuality is that I'm just figuring it out, just like everyone else,” he added. He also found it alarming that society had a lot to say about the topic.

After speaking, the 26-year-old showcased his new song “The Mountain” from his upcoming album “Shawn.” The song touches on rumors surrounding his sexual orientation.

The singer has made headlines in the past for her romantic relationships with Camila Cabello, Sabrina Carpenter and Hailey Bieber. But his sexual orientation was also often an issue. At the age of 17, he first spoke out on Snapchat and denied the rumors.

In 2018, he talked about the pressure to date girls to prove he was interested in women. He later said the gay rumors were “hurtful”.

Shawn Mendes fans now want him to go it alone as he has been stressed by the issue since he was a teenager.

Mendes used his performance to speak to the voices of many people who are going through similar things.
