    Yungblud Gets Candid (and Cheeky) About His Sexuality

    Yungblud is leaning all the way into his pansexual pride, and he’s doing it with the kind of cheeky charm only he can pull off.

    In a candid new interview, the 27-year-old singer—real name Dominic Harrison—shared how much more confident he feels today about his identity than he did in the past.

    Gracing the cover of Attitude magazine’s July/August 2025 issue, Yungblud told the LGBTQ+ outlet that he proudly identifies as pansexual and described himself as “the f***ing saucepan” to drive home just how comfortable he is with the label.

    “I am the pan man,” he said. “Because it’s the [label] that allows me to be who I am. It’s the one with the most room for manoeuvre.”

    Yungblud’s metaphor might be unorthodox, but it hits the mark for a generation increasingly embracing fluidity and authenticity over traditional binaries.

    He elaborated that learning about pansexuality helped him understand and express his feelings more honestly. “Do you know what I’m saying? I do feel like I am less insecure about it,” he shared.

    Yungblud has previously faced accusations of “queerbaiting”—a term aimed at public figures who hint at queerness for attention but don’t openly identify as queer. He’s always denied that narrative and reaffirmed that his message is rooted in genuine self-expression and love.

    “I’ve f**ked everyone under the sun and that’s the vibe,” he said during the We Need to Talk podcast with Paul C. Brunsen. “If it’s a vibe, it’s a vibe.”

    Yungblud added, “People can formulate an idea on something they don’t even know,” calling out the assumptions people often make about queer identities.

    This isn’t the first time he’s spoken about his sexuality. In a 2020 interview with Hunger magazine, he stated that labels were important to him because they helped him find his voice: “If I love you, I love you and that’s it.”

    It was also in 2020 that Yungblud came out as polyamorous, expressing his belief that love is about people, not gender. “I love everyone. I’m attracted to everyone,” he told Attitude.

    He hopes that by being loud and visible about his own identity, others will feel safe enough to come out as well. “No matter what you are, no matter how you want to express yourself, you are individual and you are beautiful just by simply existing,” he said.

    In a world where visibility still matters, Yungblud continues to be a loud, proud, eyeliner-wearing example that queer joy is here to stay—and yes, the pan man is cooking.
