Ari you have no idea how much we love you and appreciate you and support you in whatever you're going through. Your music and who you are as a person mean the world to us. Thanks for sharing what was on your mind. We lauv u forever ❤️

Your music helped me process so many things which I am forever grateful for. I m so excited to hear you are dropping new songs :) Its very cool that you are sharing about your mental health, and helping to shift the perspective that you have to keep that stuff to yourself to being able to speak up about it and not getting judged for it. I too struggle with ocd and it inspires me to see you work so hard externally and internally. All the best

Had no idea you struggled with your sexuality. Be who you want and love who you want. We appreciate the honesty and openness. We need more celebrities doing that! I’m excited for your album!

アルバム楽しみ！もうすぐ日本に来てくれるの待ち遠しい

I’m so proud of you omggg

ari you've been an absolute icon to me dealing w my ocd and I've appreciated you so much...your openness genuinely helps people

I'm happy for you, Lauv, and I look forward to the video updates and the new music!

thank you for being so open and honest with us i’m so proud of you 🫶🏻

We're always here to support you Ari,I love that you are so open with us. In regards to your sexuality, it's alright to be unsure and explore, remember: you don't have to label yourself and it's alright to change your mind later,and don't feel pressured to come out :) I can't wait for the album, Much love♥️

Always here to support you. Being bi was something I had to come to terms with as a twenty something year old who dated exclusively men and it was a journey lemmmeeee tell you - always supporting you in however you discover yourself❤

You are wonderful. :) being honest to yourself is the highest priority and the fact that you get to do that is amazing. ❤

Love you Ari. Will support you 100 per cent on your journey wherever it takes you and in your music. Excited for your album, take good care of yourself x

Ari I came out last month also, I feel so much better and I'm glad you feel comfortable sharing this with us ❤ We love you! Thanks for coming to Boston your show was amazing.

Sweet heart~ you are good enough as who you are now and don’t worry about being happy or not….life is fun with ups and downs…just stay calm. Love u ❤

I have been open and honest and out since 1982. No one will judge you. They will embrace you and who you are; not who you love. I wish I could share with you like you are doing with us right now. Your music and thoughts rest well in all our hearts. I love your honesty. It’s just another reason to tell you what a beautiful man you are. Peace, Lauv, and Gratitude. ❤😊🎉

You’ll figure it all out, don’t stress about it too much. What feels good and natural is what you should pursue. There’s no need for you to suppress anything ❤

I LOVE this look! You look so handsome! Handsome and gifted, that is some combination! Looking forward to the new album!

Really proud of you ari! 💕

Every successful person comes to that question. They ask themselves why are they doing this job. And this question takes them back to the beginning of it. For you, it is why are you doing music. I can give you an example. The tennis player Djokovic almost quit tennis around 2010s. He loses too much and started to hate it, and he asked his coach if he should quit or not. His coach asked why are you started tennis. Then, Djokovic legend was born. What I want to say is that if you come to the part of your life where you question yourself, your music, your gender decision, it’s good. It’s maybe the best thing that can happen to anyone. With this, you can finally remove the obstacles on your way. Love your music ❤ peace ✌🏻

thank you so much for being so open and vulnerable with us. i love you forever and ever 🫶🏼

I love you Ari! ❤

I lauv you Ari! Was so nice seeing you at the Greek in LA a few months back from the pit! Let me know when you’re in LA next!

You are such a good and beautiful human and I can’t wait to hear your new stuff! Please go on tour near Cleveland, Ohio again!!!!

I'm so proud of you and happy for you ❤

I ran into you near Venice Beach on Abbot Kinney Blvd five years ago. You were so sweet and kind. Thank you for your music and thank you for being you. Such a beautiful soul.

my favourite artist for years now

Thank you so much for sharing! I hope you know that it helps a lot of people. I know we’ll always be here to support you in whatever you do. I can’t wait for new music❤

loved you even more for doing this ❤ thank you for letting this out

Oh, Ari i love u so much 🥺We're so proud of you, always always always

Your music helped me so much, and with so much, including my mental health and sexuality 💜 proud of you regardless. Sexuality is so fluid and there is no need to label yourself. We love you no matter what 💜

Thanks for your music! You help me soooooo much in my life We love u Ari🫶

woah i had no idea lauv was this relatable the hair does look great btw :)

We love you just as who you are 💗

real excited for you and the places you're going.

We LAUV you 😭💙

i’m so proud of you

I definitely know that feeling. I have a brother that struggles with his identity and what he represents. He was afraid that by disclosing in front of his peers in high school, he wouldn’t be accepted. Heck, his family was the first to accept it in a snap of the finger. However, he’s living life by his own means going forward. Believe me, I’m a guy living with high-functioning autism at my 30s (and yes even OCD), and the only thing that I know for a fact about is that society can’t lock you down just for being. And that says a lot about your drive to do more and be something you can be proud of!

love you lauv

So proud of you, you have come so far! You deserve all the happiness in the world. I’m so so excited to see you in KL soon! I’ve waited 6 years 🩷😭

You are loved so much ❤ this is a journey of exploring, there are no wrong turns, only experiences that help each of us as an individual evolve. #unapologeticallybeing

Love your hair!!❤ I adore YOU!!! 🥰

We love you, man! Can’t wait to hear the new album

We love you for who you are love yourself and don’t let any thoughts get you down be the real open you x you deserve to be free and happy x ur 100% appreciated and loved don’t feel unhappy just be you that you can be . U da best.

love you lauv 🥺 💛💛

(Please notice this Lauv 🥺) Lauv i want to share my story and why your concert here in KL would’ve meant the absolute world to me: I have been your fan from the year you released “I Like Me Better”. I fell in love with that song. It spoke to me. Im a child of divorce and i was always afraid i wouldn’t meet the loml in this lifetime. My biggest fear was ending up like my parents. Your song sparked a different perception. I have been in two relationships before i met Him, my current boyfriend. He made me feel like “I Like Me Better”, every word every phrase. I felt it with Him. We met online in February 2020, he is from Australia and im from Malaysia. We had this big dream to fly and meet each other. However, it didn’t quite work out in our favour. We broke up 2 weeks in, realizing the distance was hard. Soon after, the pandemic hit the world. We both were in a dark spot in our lives, i had issues at home and he just got laid off work due to the Pandemic. He texted me and told me the only person he could think of was me and weirdly, i felt the same. How can a human i’ve never met be so glued in my mind. We decided to give it a second chance. Unfortunately for us, the borders were shut and we couldn’t see each other for almost 2 and a half years. We tried our best to stay connected. Then, one day he asked me, “what should our song be?” And without hesitation i said “I Like Me Better”. I knew it was risky because it was my favourite song and i hold it near and dear to my heart. I could potentially never be able to hear the song without shedding a tear if god forbid anything happened between us. But no, i was determine He was I Like Me Better. We met for the first time in August 2022, i flew to Australia. It was the best days of my life after 2 and a half years, i got to hold his hands down the street, go on dates and tell stories while we stare into each other’s eyes and not the phone or a screen. He was going to come here in two weeks time, August 2023. We were over the moon when we heard you were going to perform here, it felt like a sign, something the universe wanted to tell us. What a coincidence that you would be performing the month he was here, we had to go. It would mean the world to us. As of today we have been together for 3 Years 5 Months and 15 days, he is my longest relationship yet & he makes me the happiest girl alive. My heart sank today when i got a text from my brother saying it had been cancelled. Im sure you have a reason and i will respect it. I want to share my story here and why it meant the world to me. I am devastated I won’t be able to see you perform, i wish you all the best and i hope one day i will be able to stand in the crowds of your concert with Him singing to our song, the song your Ari articulate so beautifully, I Like Me Better. With love, Irina 🤍

This is the essence of pride ✨

thank you for sharing and being open with us! i always appreciate openness ^_^

I will always love and support you 100 percent and am not going anywhere. Cannot wait to hear this next album. Take care of yourself ❤❤😊😊

So excited for this new chapter!!! I’ll love every single song

I love your music! I hope you have a great time figuring out this thing called life. I also hope your mom is doing well. I used to work with her at emory university. She was the greatest boss I ever had. ❤️❤️

So excited for the album! Your music is amazing! I enjoyed watching you live last year and I can’t wait to see you live again!! You are amazing!! Thanks for being you! 💛

I hope this album has many songs

you my friend are freaking fantastic. more Ari for the world!

I'm sorry Lauv, I don't think I'll hear your songs anymore.....always thank you

I am Korean. I am looking forward to your concert next month. See you in Korea, the best of Elemental.

So happy for you and excited to hear what's coming next. Wherever you land on your sexuality it really shouldn't be a cause for anything but celebration. I'm a 61 year old gay English man and I've always said if anyone has a problem with my sexuality, it's their problem, and won't allow them to make it mine. I am so grateful to you for sharing your awesome talent. All 4 Nothing is my favourite album by anyone in a very long time, and the most played in my huge collection.It's my go to album to make me want to dance and sign out loud. I look forward to the next album and have my £££s ready for purchasing the HiRes audio version.

Excited for new music and for you for exploring and finding yourself! Thanks for sharing! If you ever come to Finland I PROMISE I'll be in the front row singing every word back to you! 🫶🏻

We’re here to support you Lauv! See you on Sept 11! 🥰😘
