That is until last February when the Covergirl-endorsed performer released a new video (&#8220;Make Me Feel&#8221;), starring her and actress Tessa Thompson (Creed) engaging rather intimately. Rumors sparked of a bisexual relationship between Monae and Thompson. That is until, in a recent Rolling Stone interview, the singer revealed that she identifies sexually as Pansexual.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cI want young girls, young boys, non-binary, gay, straight, queer people who are having a hard time dealing with their sexuality, dealing with feeling ostracized or bullied for just being their unique selves, to know that I see you,\u201d she said.<\/p>\n<p>The term immediately lit a fire of curiosity, even setting a Search Engine record. Monae isn&#8217;t the first entertainer to come out as Pansexual. In 2016, Miley Cyrus came out under the same umbrella.<\/p>\n<p>So what exactly does it mean to be Pansexual?
