Having said that, he contended that having a physical attraction with someone is love and thereafter, inferred that it’s stupid for people to keep trying to offend him by saying he loves someone (of his own gender).

Although there was a time he talked about having a girlfriend, the video he made on the gay issue was widely received as him confirming that he’s gay. This is so irrespective of the fact that he never specifically stated what his sexual preference was. In all, Twaimz it doesn’t matter if he’s gay, straight or bisexual.
