Someone responded to his tweet and said, “Wait hope Mr Khalid isn’t GEHHH!”

Khalid wrote back, “I am! And that’s okay.”

Khalid later added, “I got outted and the world still continues to turn. Let’s get this straight (lmao) I am not ashamed of my sexuality! In reality it ain’t nobodies business! But I am okay with me ???? love yall”

This is the first time that Khalid has publicly talked about his sexuality, but he has always been an ally of the LGBTQ+ community. His song “Love Lies” was the official single for the Love, Simon soundtrack and he also spoke about the community while being honored as one of Time’s Most Influential Teens of 2017.

“America today feels like a scary place for many people, people of color, DREAMERS, women, the LGBTQ community,” he told Time back then. “It’s the young people of America, the teens, who have the power to create change.”
