Sam Smith has revealed that Lady Gaga helped them come to terms with their non-binary gender identity. Smith, 28, says Gaga gave them ‘permission to be proud of their queerness!’ Smith, who has long identified as gay, also came out as non-binary last year and started using they/them pronouns.
Now speaking in a video with Vogue, the singer says: ‘Gaga is probably the reason why I actually came to terms with my gender.
I was 15 when The Fame came out and I was obsessed with Lady Gaga.’ Moreover Smith reveals Gaga’s music helped them tell their school bodies to ‘stay away’.
The Born This Way singer’s music taught a teenage Smith they could be ‘confident and powerful’ in their own body. ‘I want to be mummy’ Smith also revealed to Vogue that
