Demi Lovato speaks out about being pansexual

Demi Lovato has opened up about being pansexual, and explained why she previously remained "closeted".

Lovato explained that she initially found it hard to come to terms with her sexuality due to her conservative Christian childhood.

Speaking on The Joe Rogan Podcast, the singer said she’s attracted to "anything really".

"I’m so fluid now, and a part of the reason why I am so fluid is because I was super closeted off," she said.

Asked if the term "pansexual" aligned with how she felt, she answered, "Yeah, pansexual."

"I heard someone call the LGBTQIA+ community the alphabet mafia," she said, adding: "That’s it! That’s what I’m going with."

The 28-year-old explained that her religious upbringing had impacted her ability to accept her sexuality.

She said she first noticed her attraction to women after watching the well-known Cruel Intentions scene of Selma Blair and Sarah Michelle Gellar kissing.

"I was like, ‘Oh, I like that,’ " she recalled. "But I felt a lot of shame because growing up in Texas as a Christian, that’s very frowned upon."
