Shawn Mendes, why do YOU care if people think you’re Gay ?

How many times will Shawn Mendes have to say he’s not gay for people to believe him?

The 20-year-old Canadian star emphasised his heterosexuality in Rolling Stone’s December issue and discussed the constant stress he feels living his life in the spotlight.

«I’d like to say I don’t care about it, but that’s not true», he said, before adding, «This massive, massive thing for the last five years about me being gay».

«I noticed a lot of people were saying I gave them a ‘gay vibe’», he said. «First of all, I’m not gay. Second of all, it shouldn’t make a difference if I was or wasn’t», pagesix.com reports.

But why do you care then ? You know your own sexuality and what other people thinks about it shouldn’t bother you. Maybe the problem are that you really think you are a lesser man if people thinks you’re gay.. just saying. Stop the obsession about what other thinks about your sexuality – and you’ll feel much better – promise you !
