Troye Sivan’s 5 sexiest music videos ranked
The Idol. It’s a question, apparently improvised by Sivan, that’s managed to linger in the culture far longer than the HBO series itself (which came-and-went after just five divisive episodes), and it turns out the answer’s been right in front of us this whole time…With the release of his third studio album—the cathartic, sexually liberated, and joyfully queer Something To Give Each Other—the 28-year-old singer-songwriter makes it clear that he’s the “truly f*cking nasty, nasty bad pop girl” we’ve been looking for all along.The record is Sivan’s strongest artistic statement yet, a natural evolution of his sound and—especially for those of us who’ve been fans of the star since his YouTube days—a testament to queer self-actualization and stepping into one’s power.A post shared by troye sivan (@troyesivan)It’s also an incredibly sexy album, a point which has been driven home by its poppers-fueled packaging and especially the music videos Sivan has dropped for its trio of singles, each steamy, sensual, and provocative.But that’s been part of Sivan’s ethos as a pop star since the beginning: He’s not ashamed of his sexuality—in both senses of the word—and wants us all to feel comfortable celebrating ourselves in the same way.With that in mind, Something To Give Each Other‘s release has inspired us to take a look back through Sivan’s work and rank the five sexiest music videos of his career thus far. So bring a towel to wipe up that sweat, because it’s about to get hot.While not a traditional music video, we’d be remiss not to include “Stud” from Sivan’s innovative live performance of 2020’s In A Dream, connecting fans to his music in the wake of the pandemic.
