After baffling everyone with their BRIT Awards outfit on the weekend, Sam Smith has now caused further confusion by announcing their dream of becoming a ‘fisher-them’.

You can probably work out the non-binary star’s thinking behind this one, but it’s still pretty jarring to hear:

It doesn’t actually sound like Sam Smith knows much about fishing at all based on that answer; I think they just wanted to say ‘fisher-them’ because he thought it would be hilarious? What’s he going to come out with next? Police-them, business-them, weather-them, snow-them? How about renaming Manchester ‘Themchester’? Ha! Too funny.

Well anyway, I guess Sam Smith’s lame jokes aren’t hurting anyone but it’s just a bit cringey and annoying, and egotistical to be fair. Wasn’t he more cool and interesting when he kept his mouth shut and just made music?
