Singer Sam Smith unveils their raciest look yet – and sparks fierce debate on social media. Sam, who is non-binary and uses they/them pronouns, dons a corset and nipple pasties for the OTT music video to their latest single, the Calvin Harris-produced I’m Not Here To Make Friends. It’s the latest single from Sam’s fourth studio album Gloria, also home to the worldwide number one smash Kim Petras duet Unholy. But Sam’s look in the new clip has seen the star gets attacked and trolled online – as others rushed to defend them, suggesting homophobia and fatphobia are to blame for those apparently so horrified by Sam’s revealing look. Cue the outrage from some quarters for I’m Not Here To Make Friends. One critic described the video as “monstrous” and “degrading,” while another accused Sam of “wearing their sexuality like a costume and shoving it in everyone’s face”.
