Singer Sam Smith’s new magazine cover has garnered negative reactions on Twitter.
Smith, who identifies as non-binary, appeared on the cover of Perfect Magazine. In the photos posted to Twitter by Pop Crave on Tuesday, Smith is seen wearing a mini skirt and corset.
The publication captioned the photos, “Sam Smith looks amazing for PERFECT Magazine.”
Users on Twitter responded with a much different reaction.
“Disgusting is a better description,” director Robby Starbuck wrote.
Musician Love6 replied, “No he doesn’t, looks more manic than anything.”
“This is the weirdest thing I’ve seen in a while,” one user wrote.
Another user wrote, “The desperation for attention is apparent. His team and record label are just using him. It’s sad that this is what gains attention nowadays and makes money… do better society.”
Smith recently caused controversy during the 2023 Grammy Awards show when Smith and transgender singer Kim Petras performed their song “Unholy.”
Following the performance, Twitter users shared their disturbed reaction.
“Don’t fight the culture wars, they say. Meanwhile demons are teaching your kids to worship Satan. I could throw up,” Liz Wheeler, host of The Liz Wheeler Show, wrote in the caption of a video showcasing the pair performing.
Senator Ted Cruz responded, “This…is…evil.”
“The greatest act the Devil ever pulled was to convince the world he doesn’t exist – and now he hides in plain sight,” U.S. Congressional nominee Jack Lombardi II wrote.
Talk show host Stephanie Hamill called the performance “Satanic themed.”
Mark 10:6 says, “But from the beginning of creation, ‘God made them male and female.’”
In an interview with British GQ in 2022, Smith spoke about embracing women’s clothing.
“This is what I think people don’t understand: that the first five years of my career, I almost felt like I was a woman, at times, dressing up in male clothing. It didn’t feel like I was regressing in any way. It just felt like I was trying new things out,” The Londoner said.
Smith continued, “That’s when I realized that I felt a bit trapped. Like, ‘Oh, wow, people think this is who I am and what I’ve always been. And so if I change this now and go a bit more experimental with my clothes, it’s gonna ruin this brand that’s been created,’ you know? So that was weighing on my shoulders for a few years.”
