The musician claimed he inherited mannerisms from his mother
will.i.am spoke about her own femininity in an episode of The Diary CEO (via People): “Growing older, I didn’t have a man or a father in my life to guide me through this. My mother did this, which probably made me even more feminine, something I’m not ashamed of,” she said.
Throughout adolescence, many asked if the frontman of black Eyed Peas he was homosexual. “I remember the 1990s, we didn’t have support for the LGBT community like we do today. So growing up in the 1990s… People were asking, ‘Are you gay?’ A lot of people asked me if I was gay because I was female,” recalled the musician.
I am strong with my femininity. I think it’s a superpower. When you know who you are, when you love who you are, what you look like, what your vibe is about, that’s about it.
will.i.am pointed out that he is heterosexual, and his femininity does not affect this. “I’ve never been attracted to men. I’m attracted to women, but I’m feminine,” she clarified. He even stated that he has many mannerisms inherited from his mother, who had a lot of influence on his personality.
