Auli’i Cravalho Came Out as Bisexual
With so much time on our hands during isolation, what better time to start a TikTok? While most are learning fun dances and sharing wild isolation videos, Auli’i Cravalho used her new account to send a big message. The Moana star came out as bisexual in a TikTok video.
19-year-old Auli’i posted a video to her TikTok of her mouthing along to Eminem lyrics, seeming to comment on her sexuality. Auli’i specifically emphasized the “she said” parts of the following lyrics: “Seriously though, jokes aside, how you doin’? You straight? She said: ‘No, I’m bi.’ She said: ‘Are you drunk?’ I said: ‘No, I’m high. I’m checkin’ out the chick,’ she said: ‘So am I.'”
Ok, we’ve all sang lyrics that don’t apply to us. It could’ve just been a random post, right? Well, Auli’i confirmed she was making a statement via Twitter. When a fan asked her “do u like girls?” Auli’i directed them to her TikTok video.
While Eminem lyrics are perhaps an odd choice for a coming out video, we’re happy that Auli’i is comfortable sharing her sexuality. Judging by fan reactions, it seems we’re not alone.
“AULI’I CRAVALHO IS BI wlw truly don’t know how to lose,” one fan wrote.
“auli’i cravalho is bi and that is ALL that matters to me,” another said.
Honestly, Auli’i couldn’t have made a better first TikTok. Coming out with your first video is making a pretty big splash. But just like Auli’i being bi is relatable for so many of us, so is the content of her third TikTok. She used her most recent post to ask how the heck TikTok works. The struggle is real!
