Miley Comes Out As Bisexual ~ Telling Miley's Story By: Jennifer Kate
Well, guys, I'm back with another blog, and today, I will be sharing with you one of my childhood favorite singers' stories about her coming out as bisexual. If you need to know who I am, I'm Jennifer Kate, a producer for Fruity Serial here on the Empty The Bench Podcast Network.
As some of you may have seen, Miley Cyrus has announced that she has been bisexual for a while, but no one knew, or at least some of us had no idea. If I'm being honest, I always had a weird feeling about that, but for her to just come right out and say, "Oh, people have known i was bisexual", was quite the shock for me. When she came out via social media, she was holding a photo of Herself, Emily Osment, and Taylor Swift from 2009, joking, saying that should have been a clear indication of her bisexuality.
Miley talks about her pride in being queer and says, "A big part of my pride and my identity is being a queer person." She continues, "Being someone who takes such pride in individuality and freedom and being a proud member of the LGBTQ+ community. I've been inspired by redefining what a relationship looks like in this generation". She then adds one final statement: "Sexuality and gender are separate from partnership."
Now, I want to give my take on Miley's statements. As someone who has also come out as Bisexual and has known that they were bisexual for a while, I can relate to Miley in that way. To say I'm proud of Miley for coming out and being her best self is an understatement. I grew up as a huge fan of hers as a young girl. She was always someone I grew up idolizing. When i was around 9 or 10 years old, i wanted to be a singer. Looking back now, I don't know what i was thinking, but a girl can dream. When I was 6, I wanted to be like Miley when I got older. I am glad I didn't go through with that idea. But anyway, I digress back on the topic. I'm thrilled Miley is happy and healthy in her skin and had the guts to come out so publicly and not bat an eye at it, and I wish I could have done that, so I give her a lot of credit.
Other than what I said, I don't think there is much else to say, so I'm wrapping this up and saying thank you for reading this blog. I hope you enjoyed it, and I will catch you guys in the next one.
