Olly Alexander: “I couldn’t accept my identity” Queer joy and mental distress co-exist

What a wonderful and honest interview. Olly is so honest and relatable and it's clear that the fame hasn't changed him, he really is the best musical artist to look up to. Thank you for having him 🩷

Fearne Is such a fantastic interviewer. I know this was a chat, but you do need to have a structure. I watched the Perrie podcast on the treadmill the other week and I just smiled at the honesty. Exactly the same, watching this. Real talk, no fluffing. We need this. I wish we all could afford therapy.

Thank you so much for this honest and touching interview 😍 Olly is a true gem, he's helped and inspired so many people throughout years, fame clearly hasn't gone to his head, he's always extremely lovely and down-to-earth, I'm so happy and proud to have such an incredible role model in my life! 🙏💖

I can't decide whether I am deeply in love with Olly or I want to BE HIM. He is magnificent in every way x

I can't believe it's been 10 years already that we've discovered Olly with Years & Years ! I wasn't a massive fan of the last album but I've like Years & Years first 2 albums and Olly seems really like a nice and down to Earth person. It's nice to see an interview so casual and so relaxed. A chit chat like that could never happened on National Television but that's why the Internet is great. It's the freedom to really do and say what you want.

Aww fearne is such a great interviewer. You can tell when someone has been through hard times & has grown & learnt. Fearne is all us 40 something women finally feeling the freedom of being comfortable in ourselves. Having that awareness of self means she sees others so clearly x
