Demi Lovato Calls Herself 'Pansexual,' Says She Is 'Too Gay To Marry A Man'

Singer Demi Lovato recently opened up about her relationship with actor Max Ehrich and how it made her realize she was "too gay" to settle down with a man.

"Gender norms and sexuality norms aside, I kind of felt a prisoner to my entire career and childhood growing up in the South as a Christian," the 28-year-old, who was in a relationship with Ehrich from March to September 2020, told EW. "The queerness in me was, like, ready to explode when I filmed the music video at Pride.”

"Regardless if drama is happening or not, I am too gay to marry a man right now," she continued. "I don't know if that will change in 10 years and I don't know if that'll never change, but I love accepting myself."

"I've always known I was hella queer, but I have fully embraced it," she added. "When you start doing the work on yourself, you start noticing your intuition becoming louder and then more accurate. I'm just owning listening to my intuition, my needs, my wants in the moment, and moving forward."

She also appeared on "The Joe Rogan Experience" podcast on Saturday and reflected on having babies and getting married.

"I also don't know if I'm going to end up with a guy, so I can't really see myself maybe getting pregnant," she said, Billboard reported. "I'm so fluid now — and a part of the reason why I am so fluid is because I was super closeted off."

The 53-year-old host asked Lovato if she would like to address herself as "pansexual" and she replied, "Yeah, pansexual."

"I heard someone call the LGBTQIA+ community the 'alphabet mafia,' and I was like, 'That's it. That's what I'm going with,'" she said. "I’m part of the alphabet mafia and proud."

The "Dancing with the Devil" star also revealed that the 1999 release, "Cruel Intentions" made a huge impact on her sexual life. She noted the picnic scene starring Selma Blair and Sarah Michelle Gellar helped her realize something about herself.

"I was like, 'Oh, I like that,'" she said. "But I felt a lot of shame because growing up in Texas as a Christian, that's very frowned upon. Any attraction I had to a female at a young age, I shut it down before I even let myself process what I was feeling."

Lovato is currently celebrating the success of her docuseries, "Dancing with the Devil" while she is all set to release her studio album, "Dancing with the Devil... the Art of Starting Over" on April 2.
