“Messy” singer Lola Young has addressed her sexuality in an iconic response to a fan’s comment on her TikTok page.
Earlier this week, the 24-year-old British pop star shared a video of herself lip-syncing and dancing to “Take a Sexy Picture of Me”, a new song by bisexual Irish musician, CMAT.
In the short clip, the “One Thing” singer is wearing a corseted grey hoodie and matching sweatpants, with her hair tousled into her signature blonde-brown mullet.
A slew of fans jumped into the comment section to praise her outfit and celebrate her crossover with CMAT, while one wrote: “Men don’t deserve this”.
While a number of fans thought the poster’s comment was an insult directed at Young, they clarified that they meant that “men don’t deserve” to be with a woman like the music superstar.
Yet Young herself wanted to clarify that it’s not just men who she’d be interested in coupling up with.
“I like p***y as well u kno,” she quipped, in a short and hilariously simple response to the comment.
The hitmaker, who spent four weeks atop the UK’s music chart with “Messy” earlier this year, has never explicitly clarified her sexuality.
In 2021, she opened up to GQ about the first time she fell in love, but didn’t specify who she fell in love with.
“When I was 14, yes 14! I’m 20 now, it was true love, but it’s never as true as how it felt in the moment, I guess. I believe in young love, for sure, but I believe love does change depending on your life experience. The person was great but it just wasn’t right,” she shared.
Ever since she released her debut single “6 Feet Under” back in 2019, her star has continued to ascend. In 2021, she was nominated for the BRIT Awards’ Rising Star award, while her cover of Philip Oakey and Giorgio Moroder’s “Together In Electric Dreams” was used as the soundtrack for John Lewis’s Christmas advert that same year.
Yet she became a household name last year after “Messy” became a viral audio on TikTok. It has now soundtracked millions of clips on the video sharing app.
“Messy” has also been streamed more than 600 million times on Spotify alone.
