Cara Delevingne is the cover star of our sister mag from across the pond. In an interview with fellow model, and friend, Adwoa Aboah, the model-turned-actress opened up about her sexuality, calling out people on their "old way of thinking" and sharing her thoughts on the bi-sexual stigma.
Cara, who is currently promoting her new film 'Valerian and the City of a Thousand Planets', shared her frustrations with Aboah about coming out as bisexual:

"Once I spoke about my sexual fluidity, people were like, 'So you’re gay'. And I’m like, 'No, I’m not gay'. A lot of the friends I have who are straight have such an old way of thinking. It’s “So you’re just gay, right?” [They] don’t understand it."
Cara continued: "[If] I’m like, 'Oh, I really like this guy,' [they’re like], 'But you’re gay.' I’m like, 'No, you’re so annoying!' Someone is in a relationship with a girl one minute, or a boy is in a relationship with a boy, I don’t want them to be pigeonholed." She added, "Imagine if I got married to a man. Would people be like ... 'She lied to us!'"

And despite her frustrations on the subject, she is happy it has become easier to speak about it:
"I know 13- and 15-year-old girls who are like, “I don’t know if I like a boy or a girl yet. I haven’t decided.” And it’s like—[imagine] if I was able to comprehend [that at their age]. I am very happy how sexuality has become easier and freer to talk about, especially for kids."
