Shawn Mendes Opens Up About His Sexuality Journey

Canadian singer Shawn Mendes, known for hits like "Treat You Better, " recently shared his thoughts on his sexuality during a concert in Colorado. The 26-year-old has dealt with rumors about his sexuality for years, which he says have been upsetting. Mendes started his music career at just 15, which he feels robbed him of typical teenage experiences and self-discovery. He finds the discussion around his sexuality intrusive and personal. Instead of labeling it, he prefers to explore it openly and honestly. Mendes believes society has a lot to say about sexuality, making it scary to be open. However, he wants to be true to himself and connect with his fans more deeply. His new song "The Mountain" allowed him to address these feelings in a heartfelt way. Fans have praised his courage, emphasizing that everyone deserves the space to figure out their own journey. Recently, Mendes also paid tribute to Liam Payne, expressing his admiration and offering condolences.
