What is he clocking? He essentially said "of course I'm pandering to them, they're the only people buying my singles." There's nothing genuine about it.
I honestly think it's ridiculous that he's being accused of "pandering to the gays" like it's really an issue. Who cares? The LGBT community had some real threats out there, but we're mad that a straight man is making himself eye candy to us?
If anything, it should be empowering for us. Straight guys relying on us to sell records. I own you, bitch.
No it means his marketing team thinks we're stupid enough to fall for what is such an obvious ploy.
Don't really care if it's forced or not - all pop stars use their demographic one way or another. Let's not act like, lets say, Adam Levine hasn't done a dozen naked shots for women-oriented publications which most of you probably looked up. When Nick does it and acknowledges BOTH sexes look at those photos it's an issue?
He expressed his support years ago, and just because he's out doing interviews for his album NOW after taking a break and being behind the scenes, y'all gon jump him? Personally, I don't feel offended. It's your own fault if you fall for marketing schemes. The music is good, so he's good in my book. I'll be spending my coins.

nnnnnn this post had me SCREAMING. Yasssss sis preach it!
If you feel like you can't be satisfied with the disapproval of your rights, but you can't be satisfied with the approval of your rights, then you just aren't satisfied or accepting of yourself enough yet.
MUSIC IS PANDERING TO DEMOGRAPHICS. IT IS AN INDUSTRY. IT IS A BUSINESS.
Just because he's utilizing his support for gay rights for albums, it doesn't mean he doesn't actually believe it.
And for the record, he is not obligated to go to gay pride to prove to you ungrateful queens that he is genuine. His open support and risk of losing his other fanbase segments for his social opinion should be enough. There's plenty of casual gay rights supporters. He is an artist. Not a socio-political activist.
If you can't handle that, then you need to really look at yourself and make sure that you are happy with yourself enough so you don't need some kind of reliance on people to make you feel worth ****. Like for real.
I never complained about the good sis and his ****ty photoshoots, but just noted that his sudden love for the gays seems about as natural as a kitten with no whiskers - to tweak one of his own sayings. And I can only support 100% genuine artistés, hence the two icons in my avatar.
My god some of you are ridiculously sensitive
The fact that your greatest problem in the world is that a popstar is trying to appeal to your demographic and you find it insincere.
No one is forcing you to buy the music, hell I haven't even heard one of his songs yet.
These photoshoots though...

He probably supported the gay longer than we know, I mean:
