Sam Smith talks about coming out: ‘I want to tell people how good it’s been for me’

British singer-songwriter Sam Smith has was named Breakout Artist by us at MarkMeets earlier this year and in the accompanying interview he gave, the star talked about his experience of coming out.

The ‘Stay With Me’ sensation told OUT that he wants people to know ‘how good it’s been for me’ and hopes that his personal story might encourage others to embrace who they truly are:

“My aim is to tell people how good it’s been for me so that, hopefully, gay men or parents with gay children can look at my story and think, ‘Wow, that’s how it should be. That’s what we can work towards.’ That’s been my whole motive — to not make it a talking point. My music should be a talking point. My voice should be a talking point.”

During a recent interview with Teen Vogue, the sensation admitted that he really wants to settle down one day and is looking forward to a different lifestyle: “The idea of having a house, a kid, a husband, and a dog…I love that. I also really want to open a coffee and flower shop one day, probably in Italy.”

“I fell in love with someone last year, and he didn’t love me back. I deleted him off of WhatsApp, and it felt like I’d just broken up with him. On the record you can hear heartbreak, and there’s a beauty in that I will always treasure.”
