Jeffree Star Clarifies Debate on Him Identifying as ‘Alien’
Here is what Jeffree Star said about him identifying as an alien.
American makeup artist and YouTuber Jeffree Star recently clarified the controversy surrounding his self-identification as an ‘alien.’
The controversy surrounding his identity began when he disparaged their/they pronouns during a conversation with Taylor Lewan on the Bussin’ With The Boys podcast.
Star said, “I’m not interest in any of the other nonsense. ‘They’ and ‘Them,’ respectively. And all the nonsense we threw during the pandemic because everyone was bored in their [expletive] houses.”
His followers began to question his identity after he remarked about non-binary people. One Twitter user wrote, “This is rich coming from someone who constantly refers to themselves as an ‘alien’ in the society.”
“It’s really not that hard to respect people’s pronouns, but hey, anything for a little more attention that you crave so deeply, right? You’re embarrassing, Jefferson.”
Similarly, on February 17, 2023, one person tweeted a video of Star discussing his identity. In the video, a person asked Star, “I keep calling you she, and Andrew was like, Is Jeffree she or what?”
The makeup artist answered, “I am just Jeffree. Everyone calls me he/she whatever they want. I am a Alien.”
Alongside the post, the person wrote, “Literally always branded himself as ‘an alien’ and using any pronouns but now is backtracking lolol.”
Star finally addressed the Alien controversy on Twitter. On February 22, 2023, he tweeted, “An alien is a NOUN… and clearly, I was being sarcastic when I said that. I honestly feel bad for how stupid some of these people are… I pray for them daily.”
Star also retweeted a Daily Loud post that stated, “Celebrity Jeffree Star trashes pronoun culture: “They and Them are made up sh*t,” and wrote, “I said what I said. It’s not that complicated.”
Following his response, one social media user commented that Star is the epitome of They and urged him to stop pandering to his oppressors because they will always regard him as a sideshow freak.
Later, Star responded to the comment, saying, “Bro… I identify as male, and my pronouns are he/him, but you clearly don’t care about misgendering someone you disagree with… disgusting. And typical.”
This is not the first time Star has been questioned about his identity. He has struggled with his identity since he was a child.
Jeffree Star struggled with his gender as a child
Star was born a male, but as he grew older, he used to have though like, “Am I transgender? Should I make the transition? Do I have to be a woman?”
He used to have such thoughts because he had always been feminine, and he didn’t realize that he could be male and wear makeup and feminine clothes and still be considered a man.

After becoming a public figure, the makeup artist was frequently asked about his gender. Later, Star revealed his gender to OUT Magazine in 2009.
He said, “I think everyone doesn’t know what Jeffree Star is — like, are you a man, are you a girl? What are you trying to be? And at the end of the day I’m just all about pro-expression.”
Star added, “I don’t wear fake tits or wigs, so I don’t really consider myself a drag queen, but I am really obsessed and inspired by fashion in general. I started as a makeup artist, looking through magazines and being obsessed with the idea of just changing how you look with just some makeup brushes. So I don’t really call myself anything. I am a guy, I don’t want to have a sex-change.”
Ben Potter, known as YouTube star Comicstorian, has sadly passed away.
His wife, Nathalie, confirmed the news of his death at the age of 40 as she wrote on X (formerly known as Twitter). Her message read, “Two days ago, on June 8th, my husband, Ben Potter, passed away in an unfortunate accident.”
“To many of you, he was Comicstorian, voicing stories from across multiple different mediums. To his loved ones, he was one of the best and most supportive individuals anyone could ask for. As a husband, a son, a brother, a friend, or even just a stranger, Ben was loving and genuine. He was someone who would listen and make time for his loved ones. He would do his best to make everyone laugh and make sure they were okay. He was our rock and he’d reassure his loved ones whenever they needed it.”
She further added, “He was my world and I need time to be with friends and family. I have so many things I need to figure out but firstly, I need to grieve. I ask that you respect my privacy as well as everyone else’s. Right now my priority is preserving everything he’s built and I don’t have any plans beyond that.”
On YouTube, Potter mostly created audio dramas of comic books on his Comicstorian account, regularly discussing the Marvel and DC Universes. He shared his last upload, titled “Why DC’s Reboots Beat Marvel,” just a day before his death.
