Hollywood singer Demi Lovato recently revealed that she would be changing their pronouns to they/them, and explained that ‘its okay’ if are accidentally misgendered.

The 28-year-old singer came out as non-binary in May.

She shared a statement on Twitter which reads: “Today is a day I’m so happy to share more of my life with you all.

“I am proud to let you know that I identify as non-binary & will officially be changing my pronouns to they/them moving forward.”

Lovato also took to Instagram on Tuesday and shared a post in which they asked fans to simply “respect” their wishes.

“If you misgender me – That’s okay.”

“I accidentally misgender myself sometimes! It’s a huge transition to change the pronouns I’ve used for myself my entire life. And it’s difficult to remember sometimes!”

The pop singer continued: “As long as you keep trying to respect my truth, And as long as I remember my truth, The Shift will come naturally. I’m just grateful for your effort in trying to remember what means so much to my healing process.”

Lovato added a caption underneath the post explaining why they wanted to issue a statement to their fans.

“I felt the need to post this because I often find that the change in pronouns can be confusing for some, and difficult to remember for others,” they wrote.

“It’s all about your intention. It’s important to me that you try, but if you make a mistake, it’s okay. Remember that I love you, and to keep going.”

“Love you,” commented Paris Hilton, while Jameela Jamil wrote: “Love you mate x.”

One fan added: “This is so beautiful, my brother-in-law came out as trans a year ago, and he gets misgendered a lot, but has the understanding that sometimes it’s a transition for everybody!”
