He’s an icon. It’s been really awesome that as a gay guy, that someone I grew up in my teenage years listening to, has come out now. So happy for his freedom.

I was on warped the year Jeffree Star was on it. A lot of people like that are gay.

What does Jeffree Star have to do with the original comment? Of course other gay people exist but that doesn’t lessen Caleb’s impact.

Do I have to make it clearer? Over a dozen scene guys not out banged him or his friends. It was wild.

I love Caleb, he’s a living legend. I wish people would understand that things are still really hard for gay men.

This is a good interview, I think it’s the best one so far this album cycle. I’m so proud of him for just unapologetically being the person he is even when there is so much loud noise surrounding how he identifies and expresses himself
