This Tuesday, January 31, Lomepal was the guest of En Aparté on Canal +. The rapper confided with a lot of sincerity on his intimacy, and in particular on his potential homosexuality.
It’s a duo that made echo to his own questions. In 2019, Philippe Katerine and Lomepal released the hit 88% where the two men sing that “88% of men are fags“. If this resonated in Lomepal, it was because at some point in his life he himself wondered if he was not homosexual. “In my life, I’ve had lots of phases of obsessions and questions where all of a sudden I felt like I was never going to get out of it and that my whole life was going to be confronted with these compulsive things, these compulsive thoughts“, he explains in front of the cameras ofAs an aside on Canal + this Tuesday, January 31.
It was in his early twenties that the rapper began to question his sexuality. And this, following a reflection of his ex-girlfriend. “I think it started with my ex saying to me, ‘Hey, maybe you’re gay’ or something like that, I don’t know. And then, the next day, I said to myself: ‘If it happens, I’m gay, in fact’“, he reports. If he believes that these are “questions that many people ask themselves“He was preoccupied with that for”two-three years“.”I was starting to freak out“, he concedes. And to add: “At that time, I was very scared to realize that all of a sudden, if i became gay everything could change and so I don’t know why but it scared me for a long time.“
Lomepal: “If I were gay, there would be no problem”
However, Antoine Valentinelli of his real name ensures that, since, “society has changed a lot – in any case, the society that I know, my surroundings, the daily life that I have, has changed a lot“. That is what allowed him to be much more relaxed about it. “I think I stopped asking myself these questions when my environment also changed and it no longer became a threat at all.“, he promises, before continuing: “And there, I said to myself: ‘But in fact it doesn’t make any sense, I like women and it’s cool and even if i was gay there would be no problem‘.“Now 31 years old, the young man is making perfect love with the actress Souheila Yacoub that his fans have been able to discover in some of his clips.
