Yungblud opens up about his sexual fluidity
The singer is in a relationship with bisexual singer Halsey

Singer Yungblud, real name Dominic Richard Harrison, got candid about being sexually fluid in an interview with Attitude magazine.
“I am more straight. [But if] I walked down the street and met a f–king bloke tomorrow, or a trans person, you never know. It’s about connection. I’m very fluid about it,” the 22-year-old told Attitude.
He explains to Attitude that he moved from his hometown of Doncaster, South Yorkshire to London to explore his sexuality.
“I came to London to be liberated, to be able to paint my nails, to f–king try sex with a guy, to try everything, to fulfill my fantasies and figure out who I am,” Yungblud says.
Yungblud also enjoys breaking gender norms in fashion.
“That’s why I f–king wear a dress on stage. We’ve been brought up with such boundaries: woman wears dress, man sees woman’s curves, you can make baby. Western civilization put women in dresses and men in trousers. Before that, in medieval times, every f–ker wore a dress,” Yungblud says. “I wake up one day and want to look girly as f–k, and I’ll wake up the next and walk out of the house in a Fred Perry polo shirt looking like I’ll beat the s–t of out you.
Yungblud has been in a relationship with Halsey, 24, since November. Halsey has also been open about being bisexual.
