Demi Lovato has announced they have a non-binary gender identity. The pop singer will use the pronouns they and them to describe themselves, to “best represent the fluidity I feel in my gender expression.” Lovato has also described themself as queer, and their sexuality as fluid, saying in 2020 that they were, “still figuring it out,” and had told their parents in 2017, “that I saw myself ending up possibly with a woman.” They also said: “I think love is love. You can find it in any gender.”

“This has come after a lot of healing & self-reflective work,” said Lovato in a Tweet. “I’m still learning & coming into myself, & I don’t claim to be an expert or a spokesperson. Sharing this with you now opens another level of vulnerability for me. I’m doing this for those out there that haven’t been able to share who they truly are with their loved ones. Please keep living in your truths & know I am sending so much love your way.”
