Shawn Mendes offered a candid take on his sexuality this week, telling fans at a concert that he is just figuring it out like everyone while steering clear of traditional labels.

The three-time Grammy nominee broached the subject while introducing The Mountain , an as-yet-unreleased song that will appear on his forthcoming album, Shawn.

You can say Im too young, you can say Im too old, Mendes sings on the track . You can say I like girls or boys, whatever fits your mold.

Widely-circulated footage of Mendes Monday performance at Colorados Red Rocks Amphitheatre shows him elaborating further on the lyrics.

Since I was really young, theres been this thing about my sexuality, and people have been talking about it for so long, Mendes told the crowd, as seen on TikTok . I think sexuality is such a beautifully complex thing, and its so hard to just put into boxes. 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.
