Demi Lovato has opened up about her sexuality to Joe Rogan
Demi Lovato has come out as pansexual in an interview on US podcast The Joe Rogan Experience.
Saying that she has been closed off around her sexuality because of her religious upbringing.
In the interview, she revealed to Joe that she is ‘fluid now' and part of the reason she is so fluid is that she was "super closeted off."
But now she's attracted to "anything really."
The heart attack singer admitted she's only really coming out now because of her religious upbringing.
And that she is "proud" to be part of the LGBTQ+ community, or as she loves to call it, "the alphabet mafia."
She remembered hearing someone call the LGBTQIA+ community the alphabet mafia and living for it, "That's it! That's what I'm going with."
Adding, "I'm part of the alphabet mafia and proud."
Sexual Awakening
Demi says her sexual awakening was while watching the famous kissing scene in Cruel Intentions between love interests Selma Blair and Sarah Michelle Gellar.
However, growing up in Texas as a Christian Demi admitted she felt a lot of shame.
She says that being anything other than straight was, "very frowned upon."

We are so proud of you Demi Lovato!
