"[It] has been a weird two and a half years for me and it's all been captured in this film," he said before joking, "[It's] the most emotional film about an overweight guy since The Whale x."
Following the Tweet, fans were quick to praise the singer for his openness on topics such as mental health. One user replied to the Tweet, "Thank you for talking about such important things as mental health. I love you and I can't wait to see the full documentary," while another wrote, "You’re a precious soul. thank you for sharing all of this with us."
