On Sunday, Shawn Mendes allegedly liked a transphobic tweet. (I'm not gonna show it because it's garbage.)
People started calling him out for liking it, like this fan who told him to unlike and apologize:
Literally within two minutes, Shawn apologized and unliked the tweet, saying it was an accident.
He then followed up the tweet by telling his followers he loved them.
"You know me, and I'd never. Sorry. Love you."
Can I just tell you...I 100000000% believe Shawn.
He been supportive of trans people in the past, including his friend Teddy Geiger:
"There was a moment when I remember I referred to Teddy as she, like without thinking, and it takes time to be able to learn that, obviously. And the way she looked at me was this intense amount of joy that I swear if everybody in the world experienced one of their best friends experiencing that, there would be no questions. People would not be questioning it. It’s just not worth it to question it. Let somebody be and feel and live how they want to live."
He's spoken about being an LGBT ally.
Shawn on how people can be a better LGBT ally: "Just open your eyes and open your mind."
He's emphasized how important Pride is.

In my opinion, I don't think he would ever like that tweet. That's all!
