Sam Smith Talks Gender Identity, Break-Ups and Stage Fright | In Conversation | British Vogue

- Опубликовано: 19 окт 2020
- Sam Smith was 10-years-old when they came out to their family, but it was only two years ago that they heard the word that ultimately brought them relief and finally made them feel seen: “Non-binary”. As they release their new album Love Goes, the Grammy and Oscar-winning musician talks to contributing editor Paris Lees as part of British Vogue’s In Conversation series about the impact changing their pronouns had on their worldview, how a heart-wrenching break-up inspired their latest music, and why they are finally learning to be kind to themselves - a process that has felt to them like “coming home”.

So glad they got a trans journalist to talk to Sam. She did wonderfully. This interview just felt like a podcast honestly with how well it flowed.
@Josue2018 Paris was born with male genitalia, however she has transitioned and identifies as female. You don't have to fully transition (i.e have surgery to change your facial features/genitals) to be trans, however I think I read that Paris has. :)
What?! She's a transperson??? Wow...she looks fabulous!
@Josue2018 Still ignorant.
@Josue2018 she is a real female :/
Come on everyone, give this guy a break ... he clearly isn't meaning to come across as transphobic! Be kind and educate the people who may not be used to the reality of trans people, but are clearly okay with it and open to learn.
One of the best interviews I’ve seen. Not because of who so much as because of how it was conducted. There was no striving, no contriving. It was just as was promised, a super casual conversation with cogent questions and thoughtful answers. A lot of lessons here for both interviewers and interviewees, Nicely done, and kudos to both of you. Stay safe, stay healthy, and stay with love. ✌🏻🙏🏻🤙🏻
Yes
this especial human holds a very very special place on my heart!! the way they carry themself
The way they carry themself
@@elizaduxbury you are absolutely right, correcting asap x
😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
He
Elizabeth Duxbury Then how do I say they as in many people, if I have to say both I’ll just reserve my right to not know English
omg i forgot they're british!!! their voice is so soothing.
Do they identify as British?
This is the most relaxed and entertained interview i have watched in sooooo long. Congrats to Paris Lee for been such a good interviewer.
Zane Lowe also does great interviews that feel similiar- just calm and respectful
Paris is a compassionate and wonderful interviewer. She always knocks it out of the park x
This was an EXCELLENT interview! I have never heard of the interviewer before, but her questions were just so thoughtful and insightful, not to mentions there is a realness and goodness to her👍. Sam is wonderful as always; I just love them! 👍❤️
Right! Would also highly recommend her interviews with Emma Watson, Owen Jones, and Abigail Thorn. And her book 'What it Feels Like for a Girl', which I literally just finished this morning, is a literary tour de force of a memoir.
What a candid and deep conversation, I loved it.
really deep
I really like the interviewer, she is really calm and good listener.
@Levent A. she is a woman
Am I the only one who feels that almost half of the interview was cut out?
If there’s one singer that I would ever want to talk to, it would definitely be Sam Smith.
One of the best interviews I've seen, thanks to Sam and mainly to the interviewer. She is really excellent, very calm, professional, nice.
"I'm financially okay" - lol, understatement of the year
U wanted sam to say I am financially very well off.. That wud have been rude rgt
@@farhinmalik5475 How would that have been rude? That's just the truth - he has millions haha
@@Voldemorti *they have
Thank you for interviewing this wonderful human so well! Enjoyed every bit of it. It's nice to know more about Sam's experience, nice to understand them deeper. Can't wait for crying to their new album!!
omg their voice is so soothing!!
Ikr
Their voice is so calming
"his"
@@simranbhatla6030 hey fellow swiftie! 👋
@@danieljones672 nope sams pronouns are they/them actully
those blue eyes 🥺
I‘m in love with Sam’s speaking voice
these british vogue interviews with paris are so interesting
Sam has such a lovely aura/charisma
He does indeed, it hurts me to hear all the hardships he’s gone through, I feel like he deserves everything he got because he’s such a beautiful human being all around
Catchmeifyoucan Yo if you say he you’re a fascist yo
@@HAIRHOLIC_1 Sam uses they/them pronouns
Sam’s voice can cure depression. & that’s on point blank periodt.
I love Sam Smith, special human being
I didn't even know he had gender dysphoria until now
@@vedantsridhar8378 just a reminder that he uses they/them pronouns:)
@@nil8404 Thanks! Yeah if they identify themselves as neither male or female, then 'they' should be the correct pronoun
@@planethoth1238 that's true, but we should always use pronouns based on someone's gender identity. I'm currently a boy, but if I was born as a girl but felt like a boy, and people called me a girl, I won't feel good at all. Same applies for non-binary. Sam Smith can't fully accept the fact that they are a man. They feel more like they're somewhere between a man and a woman, and 'they' is the closest pronoun to use for something like this.
Easiest way to imagine: How bad would it feel if you were to somehow magically transition into your opposite sex? I bet I wouldn't last more than a month without demanding my parents to pay for the gender-transitioning surgery. Now while non-binary wouldn't be as bad as transgender, it can still cause troubles.
@@vedantsridhar8378 non-binary people are also transgender. To suggest that we just 'can't accept' that we are male or female is absolutely wrong. There's no comparing between being mtf or ftm and being nonbinary. We are all transgender under the same umbrella and can have gender dysphoria that is just as severe as the other.
On a side note the interviewer is so beautiful
Love the vibe of this interviewer
i loved the quiff but i sort of wish that the fem sam was the one who everyone fell in love with and identified with. what an awesome family. that really makes one feel comfortable to go for dreams and be stable despite everything
WOW this human being inspires me so much. Love to you Sam. Thanks for existing.
Thank you so much for sharing yourselves in this way.
Love you both ! Thank u for this ! Can't wait for the album and Paris' book !!!
Sam I love you❤️, your authenticity is healing , you are an amazing artist and a kind person.
Wonderful
Gorgeous human beings❤️❤️❤️
mindig megmelengetí a szívemet, ha elfogadó magyart látok:) ❤️
@@lilimandula jaaaj az enyémet is🥺🥺🥺, nagyon jól esett a válaszod❤️❤️❤️
love the banter that made sam cry from laughing lol
This is so beautiful. Thank you!
Great interview, thank you.
Sam has such a soothing, sonorous, sweet, lovely voice. Along with the British accent 👌
Other then the fact he’s a bent clown that claims gender neutral.
Worlds gone mad
This was the most extraordinary - remarkable interview I’ve seen in a while. Two amazing souls… I loved every second. We need more people like this in the world !! I felt warmth and pure genuinity …Does anyone know what the name of those books are?
Sam is wonderful. I can’t wait for the live stream show on October 30th.
This made me cry, it's wonderful. Thank you
aww I like 🥰...seconds into the opening, Paris shares with Sam...'I would like to touch you, I would like to embrace you' due. ... sweet words to my ears and heart. 👍🏼 British Vogue Thank you xo
He's a very kind, sweet and soft soul.
Paris or Sam?
I love both these humans and enjoyed this interview so much! So excited for the album!
Love that Paris turns up and gifts books, my kind of person for sure.
I love Sam forever. Such a great human being. Great conducted interview. Tks Paris Lees, as well!
I also find it so therapeutic to dance
I'm so in love with Sam, can't help it
'I would like to touch u' ......
Me too paris...
Beautiful souls 🌺♥️💘
What a fabulous interview between Paris and Sam. We should all strive to be kinder to ourselves and one another, listen with open hearts, speak the truth as we know it, and always, always take the time to sniff a new book 📚 Sam you are someone I admire, and I could listen to you for hours ❤️
14:00 LOVE this irony :)
I feel bad for them for sitting at the edge of this huge couch 😂 love them both
This was such a wonderful interview
I appreciate this conversation so much. I am very accepting yet struggled with understanding trans issues 10 years ago but truly wanted to be respectful. I am someone who needs to understand something for it to enter my soul. Eventually I found a few friends willing to discuss the topic and teach me what I didn’t know and I have been able to help many friends on their journey also. We can’t discount education.
I love smelling books too
lovely people! glad sam isn't one of those who paris interviewed that don't read
Wonderful interview!! Thank you!
Who is the interviewer? ❤️
Paris Lees
This interview was so wholesome and sweet!
A beautiful person. .
A beautifil voice .
Very well done
I love smelling books too Sam.....it’s just 😌
Most humble person eva 🥰

Es tan maduro y cuando habla tiene una paz, trasmite una muy linda energia, es un cantante increíble y como persona es mas increible todavía❤❤❤❤
Love Sam so much ❤❤
💗💗💗💗 love your new album!! Please come back to Australia as soon as lockdown is over! Can’t wait to dance with you 💃🏾😍😍😍😍
Sam Smith, he saved my life, I was in a very toxic relationship last year, and deal with the end of that relationship was a breakdown for me but Sam music was just on time, every word, every song made me go trough all those horrible feelings I got when I decided to left my ex. I’m a lot better now
you're enough, you're worthy (sam smith)
I love smelling books❤️
This is valuable to hear about his experience. I appreciate his bravery.
so true! :) but sam goes with they/them pronouns by the way :)
@@michellepeuker7893 true!
their*
Such a beautiful person😍😍
Thoroughly enjoyable listen. Made clear of serious issues Sam has had to deal with. Life would be wonderful if we could just be who we want to be without being judged. With no one taking notice of our sexuality. And most of all let’s be kind to one another. Thank you vogue 🧚🏼♀️💋♥️
Such an honest soul free to be like we all should be
Beautiful people❤️
the kindness of sam makes me so happy
It’s us* don’t be a capitalist gender knower.
@@dajjukunrama5695 what
I love to smell books too :)
A true icon an music legend
Editing’s a bit rough... Come on Vogue
I get so serious sometimes
very nice interview
Love Sam ❤️
When I hear sam talk explain his non-binary gender, it was like they knew exactly how I feel.
*they
Ooops...You said HIS!!!!! call the PC police
Paris is a great interviewer, I enjoy listening to her as much as the celebs. Wish we saw more of her on this channel
such a beautiful human being
I think Sam Smith comes across as such a lovely person. They’re so beautiful
Why didn't they wear a mask?
Sam is my favorite singer, oh... that voice is of a Siren.... they’re voice can sink ships.
I've just started listening to Sam Smith and I'm not being funny, but I think I'm in love with them.
He is so real,so pure♥️
*they’re :)
yall are so adorable
They are just so lovely
We need more music from him, I am addicted to it.
*them
sam uses they/them pronouns:))
seeing how even an artist like Sam Smith gets stage fright .... I'm inspired
I can see that u have beautiful mind not just cause I love your music🧡
Cannot wait for their album omg!!!!
"Their"? oh, there's more than one of them then?
@@GEOFF0906 no Sam is non binary
@@GEOFF0906 one joke
I always listen to Sam Smith's songs when I am down.
Nice interview, and one that helps me continue to learn about gender identity.
SAMMMM 😭🥺
what a nice man
His is
I love his music. Its just good. I hate he's politically used in any way. And i hope we will all meet a time, where gender and sexuality don't have any impact to any career.
A man of truth. Soul searching Artist 😮😊.👏👍🤗🤩💯
They're so beautiful!
