Dominic “Yungblud” Harrison became Instagram official with openly bisexual pop star Halsey in January, and now the South Yorkshire lad says he too is “very fluid” with his sexuality.

“I am more straight,” he tells Attitude magazine. “[But If] I walked down the street and met a f*cking bloke tomorrow, or a trans person, you never know. … It’s about connection. I’m very fluid about it.”
Yungblud, a singer himself, said he moved to London from the town of Doncaster “to be liberated, to be able to paint my nails, to f*cking try sex with a guy, to try everything, to fulfill my fantasies and figure out who I am.”

He’s also fluid with his gender expression, toggling between traditionally male and traditionally female clothing. “We’ve been brought up with such boundaries: woman wears dress, man sees woman’s curves, you can make baby,” he says. “Western civilization put women in dresses and men in trousers. Before that, in medieval times, every f*cker wore a dress.”
“I wake up one day and want to look girly as f*ck, and I’ll wake up the next and walk out of the house in a Fred Perry polo shirt looking like I’ll beat the sh*t of out you. I’ll be Anita from West Side Story then suddenly transform into Liam Gallagher.”
For her part, Halsey has often championed bisexual visibility, even defending herself against those who try to point to her heterosexual relationships as proof that she’s not queer.
“I posted on my Instagram for National Coming Out Day that I’m out and proud, and everyone’s commenting like, ‘But aren’t you dating G-Eazy?’” she wrote on Instagram in 2018. “So I wanted to take a moment to make a PSA to remind you that — bisexual people. We exist.”

And in her 2018 GLAAD Media Award acceptance speech, she said, “I’m a young bisexual woman, and I’ve spent a large part of my life trying to validate myself — to my friends, to my family, to myself — trying to prove that who I love and how I feel is not a phase. It’s not part of some confusion that’s going to change or could be manipulated.”

He doesn’t even outright admit to having any experiences, attractions, passions, affections, romantic feelings or past relationships beyond cis women. He’s pretty much presenting himself as an “open-minded straight guy”, which seems to be a trend now. Ok, I guess.
People like Halsey reflects the issues with “queerness” and bisexuality as political and social movements. Instead of just living your life, being yourself and doing what you do, folks get too caught up in trying to prove something, trying to be subversive, trying desperately hold on to “queerness”, or desperately hold on to a sense of hetero-normalcy. Too many people are just too caught up in validation seeking and wanting to be viewed as victims. I get that she’s young, and a lot of that comes with youth, but it all gets tiresome very quickly. Just embrace an identity or say you’re on the romantic, sexual, affection, relationship, gender spectrum and then do you and live your life freely and honestly.

Ugh. He looks like he smells. Gross.

Yep, he prolly hasn’t taken a bath in years.

Why am I unable to flag or reply to the comment posted by “CesarBrown1542”? It’s clearly SPAM. Is Queerty complicit in this??
Brian
You can only reply to the main post. Queerty will eventually delete it, but they really don’t seem to care since it pops up in every single thread and has for the last few months.

That’s nice. Now go away.

He looks as “fluid” as Liberace in an Easter bonnet. I bet he bites his fingernails.

Does anybody else think that his girlfriend got pushback for making her bisexuality a big deal while having a straight guy as a boyfriend….so her P.R. folks pushed out this interview with her boyfriend?
Donston
Who knows what mainly drives a lot of what these public figures put out here. No doubt that some of the interview’s existence if for Halsey’s image. Otherwise, there would likely be no interview. Halsey is just an exhausting, barely talented and sometimes problematic. But I give her some leeway because of your youth. I don’t understand why so many of these “mostly hetero romantic/relationship white ‘queers” have to be persistently self-serious, pandering and in constant search for validation from every source. (And yeah, I know Halsey has a bit of black in her).
Rex Huskey
so unattractive in every way

Yeah nah neither Halsey nor Yungblud are bringing anything new. People already know artists in the pop/rock/indie scene aren’t all straight laced & gender conforming. These 2 just seem to be screaming “look at moi” louder than others. Their cover on Triple J’s Like a Version is beautiful though.

“in a Fred Perry polo shirt looking like I’ll beat the sh*t of out you” — I doubt it.
nitejonboy
I could beat the sh_t out of this guy with my pinkie finger.

Look at this frigging clown…a Bowie wannabe if I’ve ever seen one. What a joke. He is not doing Halsey any favors and will only hurt her name.
