Despite what others may say, Cara Delevingne is comfortable with her sexuality.

The model and Paper Towns star is finally speaking up about a recent Vogue profile that speculated her bisexuality is "a phase." Delevingne didn't find the profile "malicious," she tells the The New York Times -- but she does want to brush off that careless label.

"My sexuality is not a phase," she said. "I am who I am.”

The original Vogue profile led to Internet outcries and a petition demanding an apology.

The starlet also opened up about her relationship with artist Annie Clark, whose stage name is St. Vincent. Being in love has helped her focus better on her acting, she says.

“If you’re in love with someone, you can be with them like no one else is in the room. Acting is like that. It’s like taking that feeling and turning it on so nothing else matters when you’re looking in another actor’s face.”

Delevingne's next major role is in the hyped-up Suicide Squad. She plays a supervillainess named Enchantress.
