As well as speaking to the Rio-born singer about what we can expect on her new album, the cover story also delves into @Anitta's experiences of bi-erasure and why she thinks LGBTQ+ visibility is paramount

As a proud bisexual, @Anitta often struggles with the unnecessary expectations people from out - and inside - the LGBTQ+ community put on her.

“People will sometimes say, ‘Oh so you’re not really bisexual – you only date guys.’ I don’t think that it means that I’m not."

Nevertheless, @Anitta sees the importance of supporting and speaking up about LGBTQ+ issues – especially in her native country of Brazil.

“We are born and surrounded by so many people that want to tell us what is right and what is wrong."

.@Anitta's new album Girl From Rio will be released later this summer.
