Lynn Gunn Talks With Playboy
Lynn Gunn of PVRIS sat down with Playboy ahead of Coachella:
But Gunn is no superhuman: that confidence, to “hone her more masculine side”, hasn’t come easily or all at once. “It’s still being discovered,” she admits.

While reminiscing about how she got to where she is today, Gunn looks back to her childhood as a girl dressed in boy’s clothes—before puberty happened: “[In] middle school and high school I felt pressured to dress more feminine.”
It’s Playboy, so it’s NSFW.
