"Does it have to be that big of a deal?" the "I Like Me Better" singer added in a post that accompanied the video. "i havent done much aside from kiss so tbh don't wannna jump the gun but tbh i feel things and i dont wanna pretend i dont. :)"
Fans offered their support in the comments.
"a straight relationship doesn't eliminate the fact you're bi 👏 so valid," one person posted.
"Welcome to the bi club," another put in, as another added: "We all knew."
To one fan who asked, "why did i swear u came out like years ago 😅," Lauv responded: "Did I???"
Another encouraged the singer to "look into pansexuality! It's more about the connection You feel with the person rather than about body parts! 💙"
Someone else joked: "Lauv is lauv is lauv".
