Did Ariana Grande just come out as bisexual?

The pop superstar has faced rumours about her sexuality this past year – first, people (mistakenly) thought she referenced a female love interest on her single thank u, next, and then she flirted with a woman in her video for break up with your girlfriend, i’m bored.

But now it seems as though she’s given fans something a little more concrete to work with, as her surprise new track Monopoly, a duet with Victoria Monet, features lyrics about liking both men and women.

On the new track Ariana sings:

“I like women and men (yeah)
Work so fuckin’ much, need a twinny, twin, twin (hey)
You’d be straight for life if I gave you my PIN (yeah)
Even though we gave up that 90% for the win”

Victoria, who also sings those lyrics on the pre-chorus, came out as bisexual last year, so many fans believe this is Ariana’s way of also confirming her attraction to both men and women.

When a fan asked Victoria on Instagram whether or not Ariana is actually bisexual, she didn’t provide a yes or no answer, but instead simply replied: “She said what she said.”

While Ariana hasn’t confirmed or denied the rumours, she did reply to a fan about the topic on Twitter.

“Ariana ain’t gotta label herself, but she said what she said,” tweeted the fan, to which Ariana replied: “I haven’t before and still don’t feel the need to now, which is okay.”
