Saw love, Simon last night and it inspired me to come out this morning. The amount of good this film is doing is unbelievable, this interview has perfect timing ❤️
This boy really trying to make me love him more than I already do. I love his thought process so much. The way his mind works is amazing. Thank you for this interview. ❤
His voice is so nice to hear, I literally could hear him talk and talk for all day long, his thoughts are so illuminated... He’s so precious, I'm in love.
I've never wanted to befriend someone so much in my life lol. Keiynan is truly an amazing and intelligent individual! I'm sad I don't actually know him as one of my friends lol.
Started watching Keiynan as a kid in Dance Academy when he played as Ollie. After that, I saw him in Divergent which got me back into him and, recently, in Love, Simon. It's crazy how much of an inspiration he's been on me. In Dance Academy his character, who was gay, made me understand being gay at a young age and I never questioned such love and helped me when I started questioning. Also, as a dancer I really love him. In Divergent he played my favourite character from both the books and movies, Uriah who was such a sweet heart and had such depth. Finally, in Love, Simon I just adored him. I was so excited when I saw he was in that movie and I was in tears watching it. That movie means everything to me. When he came out as bi, I was so proud of him and still am. Thanks, Keiynan, for being such an inspiration and so relatable as an Australian, sufferer of anxiety, dancer and member of the LGBTQ+ community.
this is easily my favorite interview that keiynan has done. it's so personal and real. i love how comfortable and easygoing the conversation was. he is so so incredible! i could hear him talk for ages. he is such a beautiful person, inside and out.
Love, Simon has become by favorite film. It touched my heart in so many ways and I'm beginning the journey of coming out. I'm afraid some will stop being my friends but I need to do it to feel free.
if ur friends don’t except u for who u r then they aren’t ur real friends. it might be hard but i went through the same thing when i came out. some friends stayed and some lefted but it was for the best and now i’m happier. it might be hard but it will be for the best in the long run.
Okay, so, first of all--BRILLIANT. This came up in my "recommended" section (guess its not hard to figure out I've spent countless hours watching Keiynan's videos) and was absolutely what I needed to see. Such a great interview, very chill and you were clearly very prepared and I think this is actually one of the best interviews I've ever seen period.--it also goes without saying that Keiynan is amazing.
I'm glad you did this interview with Keiynan I got to know more about him. What I took away from this interview was he is genuinely a caring, honest, open, smart, determined, talented, wonderfully created human being molded perfectly by the creator's hands and put on this planet to shine brightly in this dark world that often doesn't have a lot of good hearted people to spread love and joy to.
Soo, i just wanna thank you soo much for everything. After Love,Simon, my friend was inspired to come out and it couldnt have been an even more beautiful moment which made us really happy for her
This so amazing Keiynan is just an amazing humble person. i would really like to meet him in person and become freinds with him. He is honestly an inspiring person.
Great stuff, all the professional interviewers could learn a lot from your preparation, style and genuine nature. Best interview ive seen. Also helps with the person being interviewed is such an interesting and intelligent person :)
Saw you at the pop 2 show in LA and stumbled upon your vid of it and then your kim video. Love this concept and you and how personal this is! Good vibes and love from Seattle. xx
Keiynan wow wish I had you as a friend growing up in Australia, I’m a melbourne boy but now I spend my life travelling the world for work so I can use it as an excuse not to be my true self! If life can provide me an opportunity I’d like to make LA my home... you are an inspiration even to me a 43yr old closet who has no meaningful relationships since I was 17😔😔 I’ll try and find my “blue” but first I need to find myself! Would help to have friends like you have! Good luck to your new ventures....
I'm sure traveling the world has been so beautiful, but like you said.. you've been using it to run away. The next chance you get to just be still, recognise that, & take it. Maybe it doesn't seem this way, but you've had the most meaningful relationship the entire time - the one with you. So it's time to be a good partner, no judgement for your past actions or your thoughts, just unconditional love & appreciation for making it this far despite everything. Treat yourself like you would a young kid who's in need of a guardian angel. You're ready :)
Keiynan Lonsdale Keiynan WOW I can’t believe you found the time to respond to this!! I appreciate beyond words your effort here!! I’m currently in Europe and just using this wonderful location to reflect on what is next for me!! Your words will resonate deeply and your consideration for my cause will hold you deeply forever in my thoughts!! I have been watching you in all the movies I love, insurgent series, flash and DC and had no idea who you were really. It was after watching “ love Simon” that I become knowledgeable of the actors involved and their journeys! It is refreshing hearing and listening to you and your journey. Continue your inspirations and dreams. I hope one day to be in a position where I could say gday and thank you...
the whole sidewalk talk concept in itself makes the whole interview seem so personal and I love it so much!!
he has the best smile in the whole entire world omg
Hexar i agree😍

Love listening to him talk. He has a beautiful perspective.
His voice is so nice to hear, I literally could hear him talk and talk for all day long, his thoughts are so illuminated... He’s so precious, I'm in love.
"she [mom] doesn't have to work anymore .." oh wow ... He is so so so so amazing !!!
I've never wanted to befriend someone so much in my life lol. Keiynan is truly an amazing and intelligent individual! I'm sad I don't actually know him as one of my friends lol.

i genuinely love hearing him talk he’s so precious
Ahhh I love him so much. He's such a star, he truly shines so bright in this dark world.
I love his personality so much I just wanna be his best friend
Damn him being very by the rules and being very shy to point of his teachers thinking he was mute was literally the same as me.
I LOVED THIS SO MUCH. it feels so personal??
Love Keiynan so much...He is my sunshine 🥺❤️
This is the best. I love him so much. He is such an inspiration in so many ways.
This is an actual blessing
This is one of my favorite interviews. It really just seemed as if they just met as he walked out of his apartment. So authentic.
It's good to see Kid Flash with a hairstyle that suits him
This was such a beautiful, well done interview! Keiynan seems like such a beautiful person!

Same, him as Ollie was a blessing
i love him sm thanks for this video
Impossible to hate him.
10000% agree!
I think keiynan needs to cover the Love, Simon soundtrack. The Bleachers songs at least. Keeping a secret and wild heart are just the best!
Y'ALL HE IS AS SMOOTH AS BUTTER ON ICE ON A HOT HOT DAY IN ARIZONA I'M LIVING
lauren's so pretty :)
when does he begin talking about coming out?
i have tried so hard not to fall in love with keiynan but i failed. miserably.
Korn? LOL, are they still around?? keep on inspiring us, Mr Lonsdale!

Black + white
Where are yall going?? u just walking. is that wat sidewalk is abou?.
Keiynan talking about his racial identity is genuinely so magical
He should learn to play the piano first! Once I learned, other instruments were so easy to learn. :)
And now Keiynan identifies as tree/treeself.
sucks hes gay seems like a nice kid but clearly he has identity issues I'm probably raised by a weak mother.
