No, Miley Cyrus did not come out as bisexual
The media is continuing to report that Miley Cyrus identifies as bisexual ā despite the star specifically eschewing the label in an interview.
The star revealed she had dated men and women last month, when she said: āThere are times in my life where Iāve had boyfriends or girlfriends.
āIām not hiding my sexuality. For me, I donāt want to label myself as anything.
āWe love putting people in categories, but what I like sexually isnāt going to label me as a person.ā
The star gave another interview to Paper Magazine this week, in which she said she is āopen to every single thing that is consenting and doesnāt involve an animal and everyone is of ageā ā leading the mainstream press to label the star ābisexualā.
The Daily Mail, the Mirror, Billboard, and even other LGBT publications have jumped to incorrectly label the star as such.
The press continues to make the claim ā despite Cyrus herself saying quite clearly: āI donāt want to label myself as anything.ā
In the Paper Magazine interview, the author notes: āShe says she has come to consider her own sexuality ā even her own gender identification ā fluid.ā
PinkNews will continue to respect the singerās wishes by not referring her with the label bisexual.
The singer has also said that she wants to be judged based on herself, not her dating life.
She said: āIt has a lot to do with being a feminist, but Iām finally O.K. with being alone. I think thatās something we have to talk about more: that you can be alone.
āThere are times in my life where Iāve had boyfriends or girlfriends. And there are times where I just love being with myself and donāt want to give part of myself away to someone else.
āI think thatās a new freedom for women, especially. I donāt know that my mother would have been able to be 22 and secure in being alone. But my future doesnāt rely on having a partner.ā
