Frank Ocean posts about sexuality on Instagram story
In a new development, the “Novacane” singer shared a vague Instagram Story post seemingly aimed at reiterating his sexuality.
Frank Ocean shared the story of what appears to be a screenshot from an online quiz. It read, “Overall: Bi: Homosexual-Leaning.” (via Complex) This is too cryptic to decipher anything meaningful. Yet, many fans have linked it to Ocean’s romance rumors with Payton Talbott. However, this post could also not be about his sexuality but that of someone close to him. Thus, it is not really clear what the post implies.
Ocean has not shied away from discussing his sexuality in the past. Before the release of his debut album Channel Orange in 2012, he opened up about his first true love, a man he had feelings for when he was 19, in a letter he posted on Tumblr. The R&B artist previously also reiterated that he did not like putting labels on sexuality.
“I’ll respectfully say that life is dynamic and comes along with dynamic experiences, and the same sentiment that I have towards genres of music, I have towards a lot of labels and boxes and shit. I’m in this business to be creative—I’ll even diminish it and say to be a content provider,” the “Thinkin Bout You” crooner told GQ.
“People should pay attention to that in the letter: I didn’t need to label it for it to have impact. Because people realize everything that I say is so relatable, because when you’re talking about romantic love, both sides in all scenarios feel the same shit. As a writer, as a creator, I’m giving you my experiences,” shared Ocean.
While rumors continue to swirl about Frank Ocean’s possible romance with Payton Talbott, he has not publicly commented on the rumors. Meanwhile, the latter has also abstained from any comments.
