Singer Sam Smith said, "When I saw the non-binary, genderqueer, and I read into it, and I heard these people speaking, I was like, 'F**k, that is me'," he said. "Non-binary, genderqueer is that you do not identify in a gender - you are just you. You are a mixture of all different things. You are your own special creation. That's how I take it: I'm not male or female. I think I float somewhere in between. It's all on the spectrum."

He continued, "I've always been very free in terms of thinking about my sexuality, so I've just tried to change that into my thoughts on gender as well." Elsewhere in the interview, the 'Stay with Me' singer discussed his struggles with body image "from since I can remember, like since I was a baby."
