Source - As long as Shawn Mendes has been in the public eye, some fans of the pop star have believed, hoped, speculated, etc. that he is gay. 

Despite the “In My Blood” singer setting the record, well, straight, about his sexuality years ago, people have continued to debate the issue on social media, pointing to videos of his supposedly feminine gestures as evidence of their claims. 

Speaking with Rolling Stone in a candid interview about his new album and his love life, Mendes addresses the gay rumors once again, revealing just how damaging the speculation has been not only to him but also potentially to others who are struggling with their sexuality. 

“I thought, ‘You fucking guys are so lucky I’m not actually gay and terrified of coming out,’” he told the outlet about reading through various internet comments regarding his sexuality. 

Mendes says he isn’t proud to admit that he feels the need to be seen with women in public to “prove to people that I’m not gay” ever since the rumors began. 

The 20-year-old Mendes revealed he “woke up in a cold sweat” and “felt sick” after Taylor Swift, who he opened for during her tour 1989, posted a video to her Instagram account of her putting eye makeup on him — even after he gave her permission to do so. 

But he has seemingly come to terms with how a portion of the public perceives him, saying, “Maybe I am a little more feminine — but that’s the way it is. That’s why I am me.” 

So I guess this is it, huh? Shawn Mendes is officially NOT gay. Hold on one sec, I’ll be right back…

Okay, I feel better. As long as the memes don’t stop I guess I’m okay with it. Personally, I would’ve toed the line a little longer, but I get why he didn’t- he was probably having a tough time getting girls. Six-foot-two, one-hundred-eighty-three pounds with the face of an angel and a few million bucks in the bank isn’t exactly “ideal.” I mean look at how gross this guy is.

I wouldn’t touch him with a ten foot pole. Although there are a lot of people that would, most of whom are guys. It’s funny because it doesn’t matter how many times he denies it, he’ll always be huge in a gay community. The looks, the voice, the mannerisms, he’d have to change it all if he wanted to completely disassociate. A total face and personality transplant. I don’t know why he thought that leaving the house with a hot girl would get people off his case either. Just be less pretty and people will stop assuming you’re gay.

Regardless, it’s the end of an era. He’s all yours ladies.
