In February, Smith performed their song “Unholy” alongside collaborator Kim Petras at the 2023 Grammy Awards, wearing similar costumes., including Texas Senator Ted Cruz, who denounced the performance as “evil.” Some social media users were quick to hit back at Cruz, however, with one person replying, “Evil is when a man walks into a school & murders a dozen children Evil is when Russia bombs schools & hospitals to steal land Evil is NOT when a musician dances around in a devil suit performing a hit song.”Smith was also lambasted for their sexy Christian Cowan-designed costumes in the “I’m Not Here to Make Friends” music video, which included bedazzled corsets with nipple pasties.

Some blasted the visuals as “vile and evil” and accused Smith of “wearing their sexuality like a costume and shoving it in everyone’s face.”, with one fan writing, “If Sam Smith were thin, cis, and straight, they wouldn’t be ridiculed for how they present and dress.”
