Some gays weren’t feeling the ‘Rush’ after watching the video for Troye Sivan’s new song — and the Australian pop star says he now understands why.
Last week, Sivan marked his anticipated musical comeback with the release of sexy, gay, ode-to-poppers earworm “,” and with it arrived a horny, gloryhole-featuring video that had some queer people divided over the body diversity within it.
Some, including the homosexual journalist writing this story, criticized Sivan for opting for exclusively skinny, mostly white men in his visual. The video seemed to be a twink, orgy fantasy. And as I after watching the visual for the first time, it seemed to push the WeHo gay-endorsed narrative of “how white gays choose to view queer people as a whole… just white twinks and chiseled bodies.”, Sivan said he never meant to exclude anyone from his video — and that putting“I definitely hear the critique,” Sivan said. “To be honest, it just wasn’t a thought we had — we obviously weren’t saying, ‘We want to have one specific type of person in the video.
Sivan’s response is definitely believable, and I respect him for being honest. It is concerning, however, that no one in his cohort of queer friends thought this decision could lead to controversy and division. Sivan has reflected on the backlash, he toldthat criticized “Rush” — but also included a harmful comment about thinner people.
“They were talking about [the lack of body diversity], and in the same sentence, this person said, ‘Eat something, you stupid twinks,’” he said. “That really bummed me out to read that — because I’ve had my own insecurities with my body image. I think that everyone’s body is as beautiful as it is, including my own, and it just sucks to see people talking about other people’s bodies.”
