Discussing his track The Mountain, which includes the lyrics , 'You can say I like girls or boys / Whatever fits your mold', he told the crowd, 'Since I was really young, there's been this thing about my sexuality, and people have been talking about it for so long.'

He continued: 'It always felt like such an intrusion on something very personal to me, something that I was figuring out in myself, something that I had yet to discover, and still have yet to discover.
'The real truth about my life and my sexuality is that, man, I'm just figuring it out like everyone. I don't really know sometimes, and I know other times. And it feels really scary because we live in a society that has a lot to say about that.'
Mendes said that by speaking publicly about the speculation, he was making an effort 'to be really brave' and 'just allow [himself] to be a human and feel things - and that's all I really want to say about that for now.'
