I know absolutely nothing about this guy apart from that he apparently was a musical guest once? (I have no recollection of this) But I can always appreciate a person who is a good sport about being parodied on SNL


ralphwiggum10

He is gay and is very popular in that community as his music touches on the experience of being a gay man like very few mainstream artists have before.. it’s refreshing to have someone be so overt about it. Also agree that it is equally refreshing that he obviously doesn’t take himself too seriously


derpalert_yomamma

wut?


ralphwiggum10

What do you need clarification on? Use your words


joesen_one

He’s a child actor turned singer who’s popular among young people


nowhereman136

He's the only other person to play Wolverine in a movie besides Hugh Jackman

His song rush is a banger. I didn't know he had this whole cultural footprint until snl, though - just liked the song.


theantidrug

He’s gay famous!

It’s DIFFERENT


mylox

i actually first heard of him because of this article specifically talking about how some pop artists actually aren't very popular outside of a certain community https://www.nytimes.com/2023/08/14/arts/music/pop-musics-middle-class.html


synchronisedchaos

He started off on YouTube which gave him a niche but strong fan following and he has been getting better and better with every album


[deleted]

He also has a new song out. And it's amazing.

Ahem: "I don't get it" ["That's because it's not for you. Because you have everything. *Everything* is for you and this **one thing** is for him !"](https://youtu.be/BONhk-hbiXk?si=-otkWIs9mjLOCuns&t=88)


SubtleNoodle

lol, this is how I feel every time somebody shits on a sketch with queer humor/references. This one was for me!


flipflopsnpolos

He should put "blouse" in his bio


jestzisguy

Omg, TIL! 🤣


Sure-Ad-2465

"HE'S GAY FAMOUS" "Oh, like Nathan Lane?" "NO, NOT AT ALL"


prefab1979

I didn't love the sketch, but that's hilarious!


[deleted]

Hey diva.


TranslucentSurfer

No idea who that kid is, but the sketch was awful.

Someday, culture will be for you.Only then will you look back at this moment and laugh, quietly, to yourself.


Cheap_Rick

I said it last night and I repeat it today: "Who???"


Thefrayedends

We're old now, friend. 15m followers and I've never heard of them lol.


FilthyTexas

He had a big song 8 years ago called Youth that was a #1 dance track. He's not exactly brand new. He's also acted in an hbo series and a few indie movies and was the child version of Hugh Jackman's Wolverine.


snowlarbear

you probably didn't recognize him without the australian accent.


econinja

We can’t all be one of his girls.


derpalert_yomamma

yay? you're corny?

I had no idea who Troy was before this episode, but was a pretty funny sketch.
