Troye Sivan shares what Grindr turn-ons make him tap back
Troye Sivan spilled on what makes him tap back.In a new video for Grindr, the queer pop star and his good-looking tour dancers (Mauro, Simon, Benjamin, Theo, Samuel, and Ainsley) dished on their instant turn-ons and hard stops in a game of Tap or Block.Fresh off the stage on the final night of the Something to Give Each Other tour, the “Rush” singer laid down some simple rules: “If you’re into it, you say, ‘Tap.’ If you’re not, you say, ‘Block.'” Subscribe to our newsletter for your front-row seat to all things entertainment with a sprinkle of everything else queer.Watch.To kick things off, Sivan tested the temperature on hotel sex, which unsurprisingly got a unanimous endorsement.Coming off their globe-trotting 2024 tour, he explained the group’s rationale: “If we didn’t, then we would be celibate for seven months, which would be crazy.” LOL.Still, the class was divided on “super hairy” guys, but the “Bloom” singer ultimately ruled in favor.“I feel like it’s kind of hot,” he said. “For me, the ick is [when] you can tell that they’ve shaved and it’s, like, growing back everywhere.
I’m like, ‘Girl, it’s fine.'”That said, everyone gave one Grindr faux pas a resounding block: taking nudes next to objects. (Put down the TV remotes and Coke cans, girls!)“A picture’s always going to be a little bit deceiving, so I’m going to really do the judgment when I see it,” Samuel explained.Other topics included not showering after the gym — “Nobody needs to see me after the [concert.] I’m so wet,” Theo told Sivan — as well as open relationships, and strict dynamics and roles in the bedroom.Apparently, Sivan (a noted not-bottom) was in favor of the latter, much to his dancers’ surprise.Fittingly, the “Talk Talk” singer also copped to enjoying some sexy dialogue, but only if the conditions are right.“Talking is really, really hot, but if I feel like you’re talking just to be hot— I want to know [if you are] being real right now,” Sivan explained.Nevertheless, the best wisdom came.
