American pop star Demi Lovato is non-binary and has changed their pronouns to they/them, the singer has announced.
Lovato, 28, told fans in a string of tweets the decision had come āafter a lot of healing & self-reflective workā.
They tweeted: āToday is a day Iām so happy to share more of my life with you all ā I am proud to let you know that I identify as non-binary & will officially be changing my pronouns to they/them moving forward.
āThis has come after a lot of healing & self-reflective work. Iām still learning & coming into myself, & I donāt claim to be an expert or a spokesperson. Sharing this with you now opens another level of vulnerability for me.
āIām doing this for those out there that havenāt been able to share who they truly are with their loved ones. Please keep living in your truths & know I am sending so much love your way xoxā.
They also explained the decision in a video posted to Instagram and Twitter, as part of their 4D with Demi Lovato podcast series.
They said: āI 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.
āI want to make it clear that Iām still learning and coming into myself, and I donāt claim to be an expert, or a spokespersonā¦ā.
They have recently released a new album titled Dancing With The Devil⦠The Art Of Starting Over.
