How is Shawn being open and honest in an interview a bad thing? I can guarantee you even Madonna has fears about waking up and not being famous anymore.

I don't get why this song is doing so well, it's so boring and Shawn is such an uninteresting artist

I don't get why this song is doing so well, it's so boring and Shawn is such an uninteresting artist Considering it sounds like There's Nothing Holdin' Me Back's child and radio was still playing that one, I understand the urge. (Also, don't let the poorly handled singles from the last album fool you, Shawn's been on the rise for a while).

(Also, don't let the poorly handled singles from the last album fool you, Shawn's been on the rise for a while). Agreed 100%! I think his situation is the most blatant one in recent years of an artist whose era was messed up by poor label management. There was no follow up to In My Blood, which itself had such a long chart life that it was understandable to hold back on pushing something else but Japan didn’t come out until well after Blood was out of the picture. There could have easily been a full single between both of them. It sucked because I remember In My Blood being well-received too so it could have marked a new phase for him as an artist to be taken seriously. I don’t think this new single is a step forward for him though.

Shawn Mendes is doing great right now... He had 1 underperforming single. lol He's playing larger venues when he tours and is getting endorsements. Just because he basically didn't say I LOVE gay men I am so here for them, I need them their awesome people, people here are calling him over. LOL! I only bring this up because this board seems so up his butt because there not happy about the way he's addressed the gay rumors which again I'm sure he's sick of them.

This board? There’s like 2 people. Hardly the entire board.

Of course he is, and i'm allowed of not liking what he says (at all). Not learning a thing of your mistakes (repeating the same thing in The Guardian interview that created controversy in the Rolling Stone interview doesn't seem very inteligent) is never a good thing. Blaming the interviewer (it's true that it seems very clear that the Rolling Stone interviewer doesn't like him at all, but it's pretty obvious that he didn't put anything in his mouth that he didn't said) it doesn't help either. He had a very clean image and that helped to avoid backlash, like when he thought being asked about feminism was a loaded question on a Q&A with fans, but that doesn't last forever. And of course someone should tell him that denying being gay never makes dissapear gay rumours. If he is really straight those rumours will dissapear with time. Bringing the matter again and again only increase the probabilities the create a controversy that won't benefit him at all. He has a team, and they should be smart enough to know that talking about experimenting with drugs doesn't look well when you already talked about your anxiety problems It’s sounds like you are making his struggles very personal to you. Let him have his truth and you have yours. The things you are taking issue with (sexuality, drugs, and anxiety), in my opinion, are truly intimate details and it doesn’t seem like there is any real reason for other people to take offense to it. I have no problem with his insecurities, i have a problem with blaming others of what's his problem. And those intimate details wouldn't be a problem if he didn't sound fake. If he has anxiety problems he should not drink or do drugs. And saying your worst fear is to wake up and you are not famous speaks poorly about you as musician. He basically says that being gay is the worst thing, so yes, people in fact had a lot of things to take offense

If he is truly straight, gay rumours will vanish with time (and he should have known by now, given this was not the first, neither the second time he addressed them than denying doesn't make rumours vanish) And nobody thinks he is over, but his last era was supposed to make him reach another level and that didn't happen, in fact it was his less successful era in terms of singles. This is not a fan forum, so not everybody is going to be positive about him or his music

This is not a fan forum, so not everybody is going to be positive about him or his music Although he's been around for, like what, 5 years now? He's still only 20 years old now. Give the guy a break. I remember being 20 years old I still acted like a teenager. I can't imagine being 20 years old and have the entire world wondering about my sexuality and discussing it openly for years like that while trying to maintain a private personal life and handling it all with expertise. I'm sure he'll be dealing much better with that in, maybe, 5-10 years, but come on now...

I don't care if Shawn sucks a dick or a boob as long he makes music I like. That's all.
