“The real truth about my life and my sexuality is that man, I’m just figuring it out like everyone. And I don’t really know sometimes, and I know other times,” Mendes began.
“It feels really scary because we live in a society that has a lot to say about that and I’m trying to be really brave and just allow myself to be a human and feel things. Yeah, that’s all I really want to say about that for now,” Mendes continued as fans cheered.
The Tik Tok has amassed over 4.4 million views.

Shawn Mendes and Sabrina Carpenter
According to PEOPLE, the rumours surrounding Mendes’ dating life began to circulate after he was spotted with Sabrina Carpenter in early 2023.
They were first photographed in February, and later seen leaving Miley Cyrus’ album release party in March.
Although they both attended Vanity Fair’s Oscar party, they did not walk the red carpet together.
Some fans speculated that Mendes’ green pendant was a nod to Carpenter’s emerald birthstone, though he had worn it for years.
Entertainment Tonight reported that they were dating, but Mendes denied the rumors during a promotional interview, stating, “We are not dating.”
