Sam Smith, the much-admired singer with a reputation for bold fashion statements, is once again reaffirming their gender identity. It’s a gentle reminder for anyone who might have overlooked their journey to self-expression.
Smith, celebrated for their talent and daring style, candidly discussed how often people directly inquire about their gender identity. Questions sometimes delve deeper, probing if they have ever considered or desired transitioning genders.
With grace, Smith responded, expressing no interest in changing. “I’m neither a man nor a woman,” they explained. Instead, Sam identifies as a blend of various characteristics, defying the limitations of traditional labels.
During an Instagram Live chat, Smith opened up about the challenges of being constantly dissected by public opinion, especially when misrepresented.
Identifying as non-binary feels like the most accurate category for them, although Smith mentioned the persistence of confusion despite frequent discussions about their identity.
