The star who had previously been associated with stars like St Vincent, Robert Pattinson, Dylan Meyer when asked why she decided to be more open about her relationships, she replied, ‘I think I just wanted to enjoy my life. And that took precedence over protecting my life, because in protecting it, I was ruining it.
‘Like what, you can’t go outside with who you’re with? You can’t talk about it in an interview?’
‘I was informed by an old-school mentality, which is – you want to preserve your career and your success and your productivity,’ she continued. ‘There are people in the world who don’t like you, and they don’t like that you date girls, and they don’t like that you don’t identify as a quote unquote “lesbian”, but you also don’t identify as a quote unquote “hetero-sexual”. And people like to know stuff, so what the f*** are you?’ ‘I just think we’re all kind of getting to a place where – I don’t know, evolution’s a weird thing – we’re all becoming incredibly ambiguous. And it’s this really gorgeous thing,’ she added.
