Three years after Troye Sivan set a new standard for queer representation in pop music, he’s back ― and more outspoken than ever. Though the 23-year-old has several hits to his name (including the new single “Dance to This,” featuring Ariana Grande), he is still identified in many outlets as “gay artist Troye Sivan.” He doesn’t take issue with that ― for now, anyway. “Am I excited for the day where [a headline is] just, ‘Troye Sivan puts out a song’? We’ve got so much work to do as a community, and the only way is forward.”
