Rising hip-hop sensation Sexyy Red recently made headlines, but not for her music. The St. Louis native was captured in a candid photo at the 2023 MTV Video Music Awards (VMAs) that sparked a flurry of speculation online. The image, which showed Red appearing disinterested while superstars Taylor Swift and Selena Gomez posed next to her, quickly became a social media sensation. However, it turns out there’s more to the story than meets the eye.
The Viral Snapshot
The picture, which rocketed around the internet, showed a seemingly “bored” Sexyy Red sitting at the VMAs with Taylor Swift and Selena Gomez grinning beside her. The image was shared with a caption that suggested Red was unimpressed with the star-studded event.
The Reaction
In response to the photo and the subsequent speculation, Sexyy Red took to social media to set the record straight. Her tweet succinctly explained her apparent disinterest. “Man I’m hungry,” she tweeted. This simple statement revealed that her lack of enthusiasm was not due to any dissatisfaction with the event or her fellow stars, but rather a more mundane and relatable issue: hunger.
The Backstory
Further tweets from Red shed more light on the situation. She expressed her disappointment that the VMAs did not provide food for the attendees. In a follow-up tweet, she revealed her failed attempt to order food through Uber Eats, with the delivery service being unable to gain access to the venue.
“So the VMAs ain’t got no food fr?” – Sexyy Red
The rapper’s tweets struck a chord with many followers, who sympathized with her predicament. In a world often seen as glamorous and extravagant, it was a reminder that stars are human too, and sometimes, they just need a bite to eat.
The Rising Star
Despite the temporary distraction, Sexyy Red’s star continues to rise. Known for her expressive lyrics and energetic performances, she has quickly gained a following in the music industry. Her hit single, “Pound Town,” has been making waves, and her unique style and unapologetic attitude have made her a standout among emerging artists.
The Future for Sexyy Red
While the VMAs may not have catered to her culinary needs, Sexyy Red’s career is certainly well-fed. She is set to headline her first tour, the Hood Hottest Princess Tour, after supporting acts like Drake and 21 Savage on their It’s All a Blur Tour. The 20-city tour is set to kick off in Boston, making stops in St. Louis, Detroit, Houston, Atlanta, and Los Angeles, before wrapping up in San Francisco.
Conclusion
While the ‘bored’ photo of Sexyy Red at the VMAs may have stirred some internet chatter, it’s clear that the rapper remains focused on her music and career. As she continues to navigate the ups and downs of fame, one thing is certain: Sexyy Red is here to stay in the music industry, and she’s doing it on her own terms – even if that means speaking out about a lack of food at a high-profile event.
In the world of music and beyond, sometimes a picture really isn’t worth a thousand words. Instead, it’s the words of the person in the picture that truly tell the story. And in this case, those words remind us that even stars get hungry. So here’s to Sexyy Red – may her future be filled with success, and may her Uber Eats always find a way in.
