Harry Styles, former One Direction teen idol and current solo superstar, reflected on his highly publicized and dissected private life in a new interview with Rolling Stone
. In it, he addressed everything from accusations of"queerbaiting," or benefiting from presenting as queer without publicly identifying as queer, to his romantic relationship with Olivia Wilde, who directed Styles in the upcoming film "Don't Worry Darling."The singer, apparently unprompted, spoke about arguments people have in an effort to define his sexuality.
' It's about love and about wasted time to me." Styles has previously resisted when asked in interviews how he identifies, telling Better Homes & Gardens earlier this year that it"doesn't matter" and that the expectation for him to define his sexuality is"outdated." Some have accused him of profiting off of queer aesthetics -- like wearing dresses and skirts or waving Pride flags at concerts -- without publicly identifying as LGBTQ.
