Demi Lovato made a big, personal announcement on their social media early this morning: They identify as non-binary and will be using they/them pronouns going forward.
“Over the past year and a half, I have been doing some healing and self-reflective work. And through this work, I’ve had the revelation that I identify as non-binary,” Lovato said in a video shared to their Instagram. “With that said, I’ll officially be changing my pronouns to they/them. I feel that this best represents the fluidity I feel in my gender expression and allows me to feel most authentic and true to the person I both know I am and still am discovering.”
In their caption, Lovato wrote candidly about their ongoing journey. “I don’t claim to be an expert or a spokesperson,” they wrote. “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 and know I am sending so much love your way xox.”

Every day we wake up, we are given another opportunity and chance to be who we want and wish to be.

Not only has my life been a journey for myself, I was also living for those on the other side of the cameras. Today is a day I’m so happy to share more of my life with you all – I am proud to let you know that I identify as non-binary and will officially be changing my pronouns to they/them moving forward 💖 This has come after a lot of healing and self-reflective work. I’m still learning and coming into myself, and 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 and know I am sending so much love your way xox
