Popular singer Khalid has come out as gay after being outed on social media. 

The 26-year-old El Paso native – born Khalid Donnel Robinson – took to X (formally Twitter) on Friday evening to address his Sєxuality hours after a Star Wars actress also came out.

 He posted a short tweet which read: ‘[LGBTQIA+ pride flag]!!! there yall go. next topic please lol.’

 ‘Wait hope Mr Khalid isn’t GEHHH!’ someone replied to which the singer reposted and wrote: ‘I am! And that’s okay.’

The lovely hitmaker was not done speaking his truth as he continued on the microblogging site.

He wrote: ‘I got outted [sic] and the world still continues to turn. Let’s get this straight (lmao) I am not ashamed of my Sєxuality!
