Olivia Rodrigo recently made headlines after revealing it in an interview with Netflix that her biggest dating red flag is someone who wants to go to space.
“This is a weirdly specific question I ask guys on first dates. I always ask them if they want to go to space,” the 21-year-old explained. “And if they say yes, I won’t date them. I just think if you want to go to space, you’re a little too pushy. I think that’s weird.”
Grimes took the viral clip as an opportunity to criticize former Elon Musk, who previously admitted that he would one day like to travel to Mars. “It’s true,” Grimes said. “Only women should go into space.”
It seems Grimes wasn’t the only one to react to the revelation. Ex-boyfriend and DJ Zack Bia commented on an Instagram post quoting the interview, adding a cheeky GIF of an astronaut floating in space.
Many people speculate whether Bia had previously expressed interest to Rodrigo about space exploration, capturing the subtle nuances of the “Driver’s License” singer.
Bia and Rodrigo dated from February 2022 to August 2022 when fans made fun of their age difference of 7 years. Their sudden breakup appears to have inspired hit songs like “Vampire,” whose lyrics refer to their age difference and months-long relationship. Rodrigo sings: “How do you lie without flinching? / Oh, it’s mesmerizing, paralyzing, a little thrilling / Can’t figure out how you do it and God knows I never will now do that / Went for me and not her / ‘Cause girls your age know better.”
Bia denied that the song was about him, speaking in an interview with GQ“I don’t think it really has anything to do with me. I think the Internet just runs with it.”
Rodrigo is currently dating British actor Louis Partridge, while Bia is linked to singers Madison Beer and Glass Onion: Knife Out actress Madelyn Cline.
