In a rant on Twitter, the R&B singer made it clear that he is not gay but has nothing against the gay community.
“U should all know by now not to believe everything you read. Much luv to #CaitlynJenner but I’m not on that team.
Not gay folks. So sorry,” Ne-Yo wrote on Twitter.
“No disrespect to the gay community or to #CaitlynJenner by the way. Live your life and be proud. I’m just not gay. We’re still on this? #sad,” the “She Knows” singer added.
