Harry Styles: Fans Believe He Just Came Out as Bisexual

Harry Styles" sexuality has long been the subject of speculation. Fans have even speculated that Harry and Louis were lovers during their One Direction days.


Now, fans believe that his new song lyrics show that he"s just come out.


Is Harry Styles bisexual? Is "Medicine" a new bisexual anthem?

As you can see in the video below, Harry Styles has a new song, titled "Medicine."


That song contains the lyrics: "The boys and the girls are here/ I mess around with him/ And I’m OK with it."


While song lyrics aren"t always literal or personal, many fans immediately latched onto that line, hailing "Medicine" as a bisexual anthem and wondering if this is Harry"s way of coming out to his fans.


Though Harry has yet to release this new song, he played it for fans, where it got recorded and shared on social media.


(Which is why you can, of course, see and hear that performance below)

Twitter, which has almost since its inception been obsessed with One Direction"s various members, lost its collective mind with excitement.


"This is the new bi anthem, thank you harry styles."


Other bisexuals were grateful for a song whose lyrics spoke to them coming from such a mainstream source.


"When you listen to Harry Styl​es new song "Medicine" and your bi heart explodes a lil (a lot)." That tweet was followed by multiple heart emojis.


Other Twitter uses expressed their appreciation for the song using hyperbole.


"My kids won’t be getting cough drops or flu shots they’ll just get harry styles’ unreleased masterpiece medicine on a loop until they feel better."


Some interpreted those lyrics as Harry himself coming out as bisexual.


"Harry Styles: I’m bi / Literally everyone: we been knew."


And others still pointed out other parts of the song that they believe (since the lyrics have not been released) also indicate a bisexual singer.


"HE DEFINITELY SAYS ‘I’ll treat you like a gentleman’ at 0:24 YOU CAN"T CHANGE MY MIND."


Note that "you can"t change my mind" is a reference to a meme that is currently all the rage on social media.

If this is the intended meaning of "Medicine," it could certainly work as a bisexual anthem.


The most famous bisexual anthem right now would have to be "Mr. Brightside" by The Killers.


"Mr. Brightside" describes in its lyrics a pining, heartbroken individual who is enviously imagining a specific man and woman hook up. The lyrics do not at any point indicate which party the singer desires and which party the singer envies.


That ambiguity allows listeners to put themselves in the singer"s shoes whether they"re attracted to men, women, or both. In fact, some argue that perhaps the singer would rather join both objects of his affection.


It"s also worth noting that Katy Perry"s "I Kissed a Girl" works as a bi anthem.


Initially, of course, the song was dismissed as being less about bisexuality than it is about how women can kiss each other experimentally and be sexualized by men, often without people making assumptions about their sexuality.


But later, people realized that the line "taste of her cherry chapstick" may refer to cherry chapstick being lesbian slang for a clitoris.


If that"s the case, then that song takes a very different meaning that goes well beyond the image of two college girls making out at a party.


9 bisexual celebrities


This wouldn"t even be the first time that lyrics hinted at Harry Styles being bisexual.


Taylor Swift"s song from 1989, "Style," is not subtle about which ex boyfriend it references — the name, fans say, says it all.


That song also contains the lyric: "You"ve got that James Dean daydream look in your eye."


While, on the surface, this could be a reference to Harry"s eyes and acting talent reminding Taylor of the also famously handsome actor, James Dean.


But … James Dean is now famous for having been bisexual and for having been frustrated by his inability to come out.


Some wondered when Taylor"s album came out if she was hinting that her ex was something other than straight.

Ultimately, however, if we"re going to excoriate cowardly singers for swapping pronouns when they cover songs (to avoid sounding like they"re singing about the same gender), we as a society might need to also not make assumptions about original lyrics.


Perhaps Harry Styles intended "Medicine" to be his coming out song. If so, that"s wonderful, and good for him.


But perhaps fans should enjoy the song — which can certainly function as a bi anthem — but not take it as a personal confession.


If Harry Styles is intending to come out, let him do that in prose, not in lyrics.


And let him be the one who decides his own label. Each person is the author of their own identity.


Here"s the video taken from the crowd:

Kendall Jenner: I"m Not Bisexual, But...


Kendall Jenner is the most mysterious of all her family members.


She"s generally content being a model and mostly staying out of the spotlight, which has prompted many rumors about the star to spring up around the Internet.


Is she dating Blake Griffin?


Is she bisexual?


Does she want to have kids?


Featured in the April 2018 issue of Vogue, Kendall addresses many of the questions surrounding her somewhat unknown persona, focusing heavily on her sexuality.


Scroll down to get to know Kendall Jenner like never before…




1. A Model Cover Model

Kendall talked to the Vogue reporter on the phone from Michigan, which is where Griffin now plays for the Pistons. “I like my private life,” she said about whether she has a boyfriend right now, adding: “Yeah … no. I’m happy. He’s very nice. I have someone being very nice to me.”



4. Why Do Many People Think She’s Gay?

“I think it’s because I’m not like all my other sisters, who are like, ‘Here’s me and my boyfriend!’ So it was a thing for a minute because no one ever saw me with a guy,” she explains. “I would always go that extra mile to be low-key with guys, sneaking around all the time. You don’t want to, like, look crazy.”



5. Okay. So She’s NOT Gay?

“I don’t think I have a bisexual or gay bone in my body, but I don’t know! Who knows?” Kendall said when this topic was broached, leaving many readers confused.

Sarah Hyland Rails Against Plastic Surgery Rumors, Makes Surprising Bisexual Admission

Sarah Hyland may make viewers laugh for a living as a series regular on Modern Family.


But there’s something the young actress does not find funny at all.


And that something is this: Chatter around the Internet that she’s undergone plastic surgery.



On Wednesday, the 26-year-old actress went off on an article that featured “plastic surgery experts” weighing in on whether she had work done.


The article was included within the pages of supermarket tabloid Life & Style.


“THIS MAKES ME SO MAD to have [doctors] give their opinion ON MY FACE is absolutely ridiculous and degrading,” she tweeted. “F-ck off.”


Citing medical concerns, just like she did back when she slammed talk that she’s anorexic, Hyland continued to blast the erroneous plastic surgery claim, adding via Twitter:


“I have had the worst medical year of my life and to create an entire article surrounding the question of if I’ve had plastic surgery is the MOST insulting thing.


“Adding insult to injury, you have NO IDEA what I have been through. And I have somewhat addressed these rumors already.”




hyland note


Following this message, the Modern Family star went on to send along numerous videos of herself in a face mask.


“Hey @Life_and_Style. Got some work done tonight. Going for a new look… gonna write about this now?” she joked in one of the captions.


Although we all know there was real vitriol behind this so-called joke.


Later, Hyland used the hashtag “#FakeNews” when sharing another photo of herself in this mask.




sh joke


Prior to defending her face, Hyland also wrote back to a fan who asked about the sexuality of her character, Haley Dunphy, on the aforementioned ABC hit sitcom.


When asked if Haley is bisexual, the actress responded as follows:


“I don’t know what the writers would say? But I confirm.”


Interesting. We’ve never really heard that possibility bantered about before.



It’s sort of a random question to ask and answer, considering Hyland’s Haley has never dated a woman.


Her most prominent relationships over the course of eight-plus seasons have been with Dylan and Andy, both of whom are of the opposite sex.


But perhaps Hyland is teasing a storyline to come on Modern Family Season 9?


Guess we’ll need to tune in to find out.


In real life, meanwhile, Hyland appears to be dating Wells Adams.

Demi Lovato: Yes, I"m Bisexual!

For the past month or so, people have been very, very interested in Demi Lovato’s sexual orientation.


Well, really people have been interested in her sexual orientation for several years now, because people are nosy and can’t stand to be in the dark about anything, especially when it comes to celebrities.



Which, hey, fair.


Though she’s spent the vast majority of her career in relationships with men — she dated Joe Jonas early on, and she spent six years in a relationship with Wilmer Valderrama — there’s been a lot of speculation about her feelings for the ladies.


Mostly because of her 2015 song “Cool for the Summer.”


With lyrics like “Got a taste for the cherry, I just need to take a bite,” it’s not that hard to understand why people started talking.


When she released the song, she was a little vague about the meaning behind the lyrics, and she’s been vague ever since.


It’s been especially noticeable since last month she was spotted looking pretty happy and holding hands with a DJ named Lauren Abedini.


In an interview done soon after photos of Demi with Lauren began making the rounds, she simply said “I love who I love.”



“I feel like it’s irrelevant to what my music is all about.”‘


“I stand up for the things that I believe in and the things that I’m passionate about,” she continued, “but I like to keep my personal life as private as possible when it comes to dating and sexuality and all that stuff just because it has nothing to do with my music.”


“I just feel like everyone’s always looking for a headline and they always want their magazine or TV show or whatever to be the one to break what my sexuality is.”


She got some backlash for that statement from people who felt like she should stand up harder for those things — if she really is bisexual, she should proudly and publicly identify as such.


That was the argument, anyway.


In response, she tweeted “Just because I’m refuse to label myself for the sake of a headline doesn’t mean I’m not going to stand up for what I believe in.”



“If you’re that curious about my sexuality, watch my documentary. But I don’t we anybody anything.”


And she’s right — she definitely doesn’t owe anybody anything.


But that documentary she referred to here was released today, and if you wanted a direct answer, then you finally get one!


In one scene, Demi reveals that she’s using a dating app, and in her search for love, she’s looking for either a man or a woman.


“I am open to human connection,” she explained about her choice.


And there you have it!



In another interview, this one about that particular scene, Demi said that she’s “always felt” open to dating someone of either sex.


Hope you find what you’re looking for, girl!

Demi Lovato Lashes Out: You Wanna Know If I’m Bisexual, Huh?

Over the years, Demi Lovato has become known as one of the most open and honest celebrities in Hollywood.


The singer has never shied away from her history of drug use and her battle with an eating disorder, hoping to use her troubled past as a way to assist others.



But there’s one topic about which Lovato has been noticeably silent.


Despite rumors floating around the Internet that she’s now dating a woman, the artist is refusing to address this seemingly major personal tidbit.


And it’s driving a few fans crazy!


“I love Demi Lovato, but her reason for refusing to talk about her sexuality is total bulls–t,” complained a Twitter user this week, linking to a Huffington Post article titled Demi Lovato’s Reason For Refusing To Talk About Her Sexuality Is Total Bulls**t.


An excerpt from this article reads as follows:


“The longer she refuses to talk about this one specific aspect of who she is – while continually telling the queer community that we should be proud of who we are and simultaneously courting us to buy her albums and concert tickets – the less I’m inclined to want her support… or to support her.”


Lovato slammed this take as “rude,” while referencing the YouTube Red documentary “Demi Lovato: Simply Complicated” that drops next month.




DL critique


The star then followed up with a second Tweet on the topic:


“Just because I refuse to label myself for the sake of a headline doesn’t mean I’m not going to stand up for what I believe in.”


Rumors about Lovato’s sexuality have been circulating ever since the artist was spotted at Disneyland last month… holding hands with DJ/producer Lauren Abedini.


About two years ago, Demi hinted pretty strongly that she’s open to dating women.


“All my songs are based off of personal experiences,” she said at the time of “Cool for the Summer,” whose lyrics make mention of lesbianism.


Added Lovato in this interview: “I don’t think there’s anything wrong with experimentation at all.”



So… why not come out now and acknowledge that she’s dating a woman?


This is what Lovato told PrideSource.com’s Chris Azzopardi about the ongoing chatter:


I just feel like everyone’s always looking for a headline and they always want their magazine or TV show or whatever to be the one to break what my sexuality is.


I feel like it’s irrelevant to what my music is all about. I stand up for the things that I believe in and the things that I’m passionate about, but I like to keep my personal life as private as possible when it comes to dating and sexuality and all that stuff just because it has nothing to do with my music.


Unfortunately, we live in a world where everyone is trying to get that soundbite and I am purposefully not giving the soundbite.


Watch my documentary.



We love, Demi Lovato.


LOVE, LOVE, LOVE, LOVE her.


But it is a little lame to continually push a professional project when asked about something personal, especially when that something ties into a larger societal issue that you have often discussed proudly.


Demi Lovato: Simply Complicated will premiere on YouTube on October 12.


The singer also has a new album on the way.

Aaron Carter Ex Madison Parker: I Didn"t Split Because He"s Bisexual! I"m Not a Bigot!

Aaron Carter came out as bisexual and he also broke up with his girlfriend Madison Parker, and those were at just about the same time.


While Aaron’s been quick to thank fans for supporting him since he came out, it’s sounded an awful lot like Madison herself was less than supportive — and that she may have even broken up with him because of biphobia.


Madison’s making a statement, however, and she hopes to clear up any misconceptions.



In a statement to E!, Madison Parker claims that Aaron’s bisexuality and coming out wasn’t behind their split.


“My split with Aaron has nothing to do with him being bisexual. Our parting of ways is something that has been coming for some time and it’s the best thing for us both.”


That’s good to hear, at least.


“Some of my closest friends and loved ones are of the LGBTQ community, people I love and support wholeheartedly, so for Out.com or anyone to label me ‘homophobic’ is appalling and hurtful and couldn’t be more off character.”


We understand why she felt the need to speak up for herself.


“I’ve been nothing but supportive of Aaron and his career and I’m happy for him that he’s having the courage to live his truth.”


She’s still not calling him out for saying what he did about her, so maybe she’s still being supportive.


“Breaking up is never easy for anyone, but it is my hope that we can move on from this point as peacefully and respectfully as possible. I wish him all the best.”


So, let’s get into this:



In a moment, we’ll show you Aaron’s previous statement, which painted a different picture of their breakup.


First, though, while we’re not necessarily accusing Madison of anything, let’s go through that statement line by line.


We totally believe that their breakup was already in the works. 


That’s usually the case with breakups, after all.


Saying that she has close friends who are LGBTQ and that therefore she couldn’t possibly be homophobic is … pretty close to someone saying that they can’t be racist because they have black friends, right?


Plus, there are (unfortunately) plenty of people who have zero shortage of close gay friends but who would be uncomfortable dating a bisexual person, which is definitely biphobic.


And they didn’t just make it up — their write-up had to be based on Aaron’s statement.


She’s definitely been super supportive of him and we don’t think that anyone’s questioning that.



Madison is talking as if various writers accusing her of biphobia came out of nowhere.


It did not.


While some (us included) wondered if that might be a factor when the news of their breakup first, well, broke, we also discussed the possibility that it might not be.


The belief that Madison broke up with Aaron Carter because he is bisexual or because he was ready to tell the world that he is bisexual came from Aaron Carter himself.


If you’ll recall, Aaron Carter had suggested in an interview that his coming out as bisexual played a role in their breakup.


“I had discussed it with my ex-girlfriend, and she didn’t really understand it and she didn’t want [to].”


That sounds so incredibly sad.


“And that was it. So, we left it mutual and parted ways.”


He later tweeted that their split was “very amicable,” but that … isn’t the same as saying that biphobia wasn’t involved.



You know, though Madison doesn’t really make a compelling argument for herself, we can totally see this as just an amicable breakup that coincided with Aaron’s coming out.


In fact, both of those events may have been brought on by the same life factors.


We just don’t know.


It’s also possible that Aaron misunderstood Madison’s reasons for breakup up with him, or described their breakup in a way that he didn’t mean to.


We want him to live his best life, don’t get us wrong, but he’s sometimes said worrisome and irrational things in the past.


But, let’s be clear: we’re so excited that Aaron’s come out and we’re hopeful that his life and overall well-being will only improve from here on out.


And unless we know that someone is bigoted, we’re not going to hop on the hate train with regard to Madison Parker or anybody else.

Aaron Carter: Madison Parker Broke Up With Me Because I"m Bisexual!

When we told you that it was over between Aaron Carter and Madison Parker, we mentioned that nobody’s statements said anything about Madison breaking up with him because he’d just come out as bisexual.


It’s easy to see a connection and jump to a conclusion and assume that there was bigotry involved, but you don’t want to slam somebody before you have all of the facts.


But according to Aaron Carter’s new interview … we know exactly why Madison broke up with him.



Between coming out and getting arrested, Aaron’s had a busy year — but that means interviews.


In a new interview on The Bert Show, Aaron Carter says that Madison Parker broke up with him over his bisexuality.


That’s heartbreaking to hear.


“I had discussed it with my ex-girlfriend, and she didn’t really understand it and she didn’t want [to].”


Aaron doesn’t call her out for being a bigot, but … we don’t know how else to characterize someone breaking up with their lover because they find out that they’re bi.


Aaron’s coming out wasn’t about looking to, I don’t know, get a dude as a side ho for his relationship with Madison.


He’s admitting what many people have suspected for a long time — that he’s also attracted to men — so that he can live openly and honestly as himself.


If Madison had a problem with who Aaron is, then good riddance.


Aaron says it a lot nicer than he necessarily needs to.


“And that was it. So we left it mutual and parted ways.”


Whatever the gender of his next partner, we hope that they’re not bigoted and are interested in Aaron Carter for who he is.


(Unfortunately, as comments about Aaron when he came out remind us, there are sadly some gay people who are just as bigoted towards bisexuals as certain straight people, so bi folks can experience the worst of both worlds)



Aaron talks about his life now and what he plans next.


“I’m a single guy again, recently came out as bisexual, so that’s who I am. And I’m just taking it one minute, and one day, and one comment at a time.”


That’s smart, of course.


Just because he only recently came out doesn’t mean that he necessarily wants to dive into a relationship with a guy.


Mainly, we imagine, because he just got out of a lengthy relationship and he’s going to need some time to heal.


When he says “one comment at a time,” he’s reminding us that he sees a lot of vile things in his mentions.


Most celebrities do, but Aaron, we think, is more inclined to read his comments and also more inclined to feel hurt by them.


Nevertheless, Aaron actually sounds pretty optimistic.



“All I can say is that I’m really looking forward to the future right now, and whether I choose to be with a man or a woman is my decision, and no one else’s.”


He is, of course, absolutely right.


He might get pressure from well-meaning LGBT fans who want to see him live openly in a same-sex relationship.


He might get pressure from, well, ill-intentioned fans who don’t want to see him with a man, ever.


(And perhaps from some lady fans who only want to see him with women because they want to imagine themselves dating him)


What all of his fans — and the rest of us — should want is for him to be happy.


So he should date someone who makes him happy, relationship-wise.


(True happiness comes from within, we know, but relationships can help)



As we mentioned, Aaron knew from the time that he was 12 that he was attracted to both men and women.


Aaron talks about why he finally came out at 29, even though he’d first had a “small” relationship with another guy when he was 17.


“It was something that I just felt like was important and I needed to say. It was a part of a new chapter of turning 30, on December 7 this year.”


We’re guessing that, so recently after he’d admitted to having an eating disorder, Aaron felt that there was no time like the present to be honest with his fans.


To be clear — nobody, celebrities or otherwise, ever has to come out.


Coming out can impact careers, sever relationships, and radically change a person’s life.


Usually it’s for the better, but as Thomas Dekker recently mentioned, everybody gets to make that choice of when and how to come out for themselves.



Aaron Carter spoke some more about coming out.


“The process is at your own pace and when you feel comfortable.”


He’s absolutely right, though few people feel totally comfortable coming out at that moment.


“There might be a lot of people who don’t agree with it, but you might be surprised by the people who do.”


Despite folks who seem to think that passing marriage equality ended anti-LGBT bigotry, there are bigots everywhere, and we don’t just mean in Congress or the currently orange-tinted White House.


We’re glad that Aaron received some pleasant surprises.


“I was shocked. I was blown away. My fans know that I’m a heart on the sleeve kinda guy. That’s the way I am.”


That’s great.


Aaron’s needed some good news, you know?

Aaron Carter Split from Girlfriend, Madison Parker, Before Bisexual Announcement

Aaron Carter broke up with his girlfriend days before announcing he’s bisexual — and the split seems to be tied to the news … TMZ has learned. A source close to Aaron tells us he and now ex-GF, Madison Parker, broke up sometime last week ……

Aaron Carter Comes Out: I"m Bisexual and I"m Not Ashamed!

Aaron Carter is not holding back.


Not that he ever has, right?



Aaron’s always been exceedingly open about his experiences and his emotions — almost to a fault.


Remember a few years ago when he refused to stop talking about his teenage romance with Hilary Duff and how much he still loved her after all this time?


More recently, he’s been vocal about his health problems, including a hernia that he says makes it very hard for him to put on any weight.


He’s also said that he suffers from an eating disorder, and that he hates what he sees when he looks in the mirror.


On top of all that, he was arrested last month in Georgia for a DUI — or technically for refusing to submit to testing for a DUI.


He insists that he’s innocent, and that any reckless driving was due to the tires on his car being messed up, but the arrest didn’t help rumors that his thin appearance is due to a drug addiction.



Basically, it’s been a tough few years for Aaron, but he’s still ticking.


And last night, he felt moved to make yet another revelation.


In a note he posted to Twitter, he wrote “To start off, I would like to say that I love each and EVERY ONE of my fans.”


“There’s something I’d like to say that I feel is important for myself and my identity that has been weighing on my chest for nearly half of my life.”


“This doesn’t bring my shame,” he explained, “just a weight and burden I have held onto for a long time that I would like lifted off me.”



“I grew up in this entertainment industry at a very young age and when I was around 13-years-old I started to find boys and girls attractive.”


“There were years that went by that I thought about,” he continued, “but it wasn’t until I was 17-years-old, after a few relationships with girls, I had an experience with a male that I had an attraction to who I also worked with and grew up with.”


And so there you have it — Aaron is bisexual, and he wants us all to know.


Good for him, right?


“To me music has always been my temple,” he concluded his statement. “Music will ALWAYS be what transcends us and myself. The studio has always been my safe haven.”



“But the ultimate goal for me is to be satisfied. I never want to be a figure of disappointment.”


He added a Boy George quote he said he felt summed it all up the best: “I’ve never felt as though I didn’t belong, I just acted as though I did.”


It’s unclear if Aaron thinks this new information will disappoint his fans or if he’s speaking more broadly about his life, but of course the majority of people won’t look down on him for this.


In fact, we feel pretty comfortable saying that each and every one of his fans would want him to do whatever it is that makes him happy — especially since he’s seemed so very, very sad lately.


Just be happy, Aaron.

Usher Bisexual Rumors Swirl Around New, Herpes-Related Lawsuit

Three new people have come out and accused Usher of having sexual contact with them while he was infected with Herpes.


These three people allege that the singer never informed them of his condition.


And one of them is a man.



Late last month, court documents surfaced that detailed how an unnamed sexual partner sued Usher back in 2012 after the pair engaged in “rigorous unprotected sex,” without the artist informing this woman of his Herpes diagnosis.


After she developed her own symptoms and doctors diagnosed the victim with the same sexually transmitted disease. Usher finally admitted that he had acquired Herpes a few years prior.


(It is possible for one to carry Herpes and pass it along, even after one’s own symptoms are cured; it’s an infection that never truly goes away once you have it.)


Usher eventually settled this lawsuit for $ 1.1 million.


After news of this lawsuit hit the Internet, another woman sued Usher for $ 10 million.


She says she also slept with the star after he contracted Herpes, yet was never told by the singer that he had this disease.


She only learned of it after reading about the first lawsuit.



Now, the scandal has exploded even further.


According to TMZ, two women and one man are set to file new legal documents that claim Usher exposed them to his STD.


Lisa Bloom, the same lawyer who represented Blac Chyna amidst her revenge porn case against Rob Kardashian, says she’ll file a lawsuit on Monday in California.


She will then hold a new conference in New York City to correspond with the filing.


One of the accusers will appear at the news conference.


The two others will remain anonymous, appear in the lawsuits as Jane Doe and John Doe.



The attorney says all three individuals allege to have had sexual contact with Usher after 2012, adding that he failed to warn them he allegedly had Herpes.


Naturally, rumors of Usher’s sexuality has been circulating online ever since users discovered that a man was joining other women in this sort of lawsuit.


Usher is yet to respond to any of these accusations.


He was once married to Tameka Foster, who has denied ever being diagnosed with Herpes and who says she is perfectly healthy; and is now married to Grace Miguel.


Sources have said Miguel is sticking by her husband throughout this scandal.


She has no plans to leave him.

Keiynan Lonsdale Comes Out as Bisexual: Read His Moving Statement

Keiynan Lonsdale has an announcement to make.


The actor, best known for his role on The Flash as Wally West, shared a lengthy Instagram post over the weekend in which he opened up about his personal life.



Specifically, Lonsdale admitted that he’s attracted to both men and women.


“I like to change my hair, I like to take risks with how I dress, I like girls, and I like guys (yes),” wrote the 25-year old star, who you may also recognize as Uriah from the movie Allegiant.


He added on Saturday, May 13:


“I like growing, I like learning, I like who I am and I really like who I’m becoming.


“Spent way too many years hating myself, thinking I was less valuable because I was different … which is just untrue.”


Lonsdale included the following photo with his announcement and went on to explain that a “couple years ago” he was “able to accept” himself.



Wrote the star:


“It saved my life, but now I’ve gotten to a new road block and I feel kind of lost. I gotta take the next step and actually embrace who I am, which is pretty exciting.


“Not faking sh-t anymore, not apologizing for falling in love with people no matter their gender. I’ve become bored of being insecure, ashamed, scared.”


Good. We admire Lonsdale for fully embracing who he really is.


Along with the aforementioned television and film role, the 25-year old has appeared on TV shows All Saints and Dance Academy, along with the movies Insurgent and The Finest Hours.


He concluded in his Instagram post that no one should be ashamed about who they are. Quite the opposite, in fact.



“More and more I see so many young people being their best / truest selves, it’s f-cking inspiring … so what have I been waiting for!? Who knows.


“Everyone in their own time. I hope we can all learn to embrace who we are and not judge people who aren’t exactly the same as us.


“The truth is we are all family, we’re all one.”


Amen, right?


Fortunately, yes, right: a significant number of social media users have come out and offered their support to Keiynan Lonsdale.


“U DESERVE ALL THE GOD DAMN LOVE IN THE UNIVERSE,” read one enthusiastic response, while another follower chimed in as follows:


“The love is beyond measurable.”

Paris Jackson: Coming Out as Bisexual?

Paris Jackson has been getting a lot of attention in recent weeks, and that’s no accident.


In the past month alone, Paris has covered Rolling Stone and Harper’s Bazaar.


She’s sat for dozens of interviews with outlets both big and small. (Ironically, the unique pressures seems to be her favorite topic of conversation.)



We seem to be in the midst of a full-blown Paris Jackson media blitz, and it doesn’t look like it’ll be letting up any time soon.


The only question is: why?


Paris doesn’t appear to have a project to promote; she’s not bringing attention to any particular cause, and she frequently gripes about only being known as Michael Jackson’s daughter despite the fact that she hasn’t done anything that would merit this level of attention for some other reason.


Like Kim, Kylie and the OG Paris, Ms. Jackson is famous for being famous, which can be enough to build a career on in 2017.


The curious thing is that her persistently insists that that’s not the type of career that she wants.



For now, at least, Paris’ personal and professional lives are inseparable, and she reportedly has a team of 20 full-time employees working round the clock to keep her in the spotlight.


The end game is unclear, but the strategy is apparent:


Tidbits about Paris’ “private” life have been surfacing at the rate of about one a day for the past week, and her team is going all in with today’s “leak.”


Apparently, Paris has been using a “celebrity dating app” called Raya (might as well score some product placement bucks out of your shameless self-promotion!) to hook up with “VERY hot American girls.”


We’re not sure why their nationality is important, but apparently Team Paris would like you to know that she’s both bisexual AND a patriot, dammit!



“Paris has made no secret of having crushes on girls in the past and wants to keep her options open,” a source tells Radar Online.


But don’t expect an official coming out any time soon.


It seems that on the topic of her sexuality, Paris is happy to let the anonymous “insiders” on her payroll do the talking for her:


“She’s not interested in making a big statement about her sexuality,” says the source.


“She thinks it’s unnecessary in 2017, but she’s having fun chatting to sexy women online.”



Paris broke up with Michael Snoddy back in February, and all of her public relationships have been with men, but she’s frequently hinted that she would be open to the idea of dating a woman.


Talking about her sexuality with Rolling Stone last month, Paris commented:


“My dad raised me in a very open-minded house,” she told Rolling Stone Magazine.


“I was eight years old, in love with this female on the cover of a magazine. Instead of yelling at me, like most homophobic parents, he was making fun of me, like, ‘Oh, you got yourself a girlfriend.’”


So currently, the plan is not to come out publicly, but based on the subtlety of Paris’ current media campaign, you can expect her to ask Miley Cyrus out on Instagram before the week is out.
