Reneé Rapp makes headlines all the time: for her insane talent, her lack of media training, and her overall iconicity. Today she’s making headlines because she appears to have hard-launched her relationship with singer Towa Bird. The pair hit the red carpet at the Vanity Fair afterparty following The Academy Awards, and made it pretty damn obvious they are an item.
Entertainment Tonight stopped to interview Miss Rapp and offered her a shot, to which she immediately called to Bird and said “baby, come take a shot!”
“Are you gonna take one? Are you shitfaced?” Rapp asks the interviewer before throwing it back, and asking for another.
The couple made their couple debut a stylish one: Rapp looked stunning in a white silk maxi shirt dress with black stockings and heels while Towa looked handsome AF in an embellished Canadian Tuxedo.
The relationship has not officially been confirmed but we’re taking this red carpet cuteness as a pretty good indicator. Oh, and there’s also the picture of the pair about to kiss on stage that was posted by Rapp on her Instagram March 7.
Rapp had previously identified as bisexual, but recently reaffirmed her identity as a lesbian when she spoke with the Hollywood Reporter.
“I’ve only recently started referring to myself as a lesbian, and I’ve only recently been in a relationship where I’m like, ‘Yeah, I’m a lesbian for sure.’ I’m watching all these movies and parts of gay culture, specifically lesbian culture, and I’m like, ‘I love this.’ It’s also been the most rewarding, validating, scary and exciting experience ever,” she told the publication in February.
Cheers to the new lesbian “it” couple!
