Reneé Rapp reveals Towa Bird 'topped her' before they started dating
Reneé Rapp is getting candid about her relationship with fellow musician Towa Bird, and her description of how the two lovebirds met is hilarious.
On the Tuesday, May 27 episode of Good Hang with Amy Poehler, the Mean Girls star opened up about why she thought it was 'so hot' that her singer-songwriter girlfriend didn't seem to like her when they met for the first time.
Bird rose to fame on TikTok, so Rapp knew who she was and thought she was 'sexy' long before they ever met in person.
"I just always thought she was so f*cking cool," the 'Too Well' singer told host Amy Poehler.
Rapp asked a close friend to introduce her to the British singer-songwriter even though Bird wasn't ready to meet someone. "I said, 'I couldn't give a f*ck less. I'm not either, but I'm gonna meet her. We need to at least be friends,' Rapp explained.
But when the two finally met, Bird was 'so f*cking mean' to her. Luckily, Rapp was into it.
'She's scary," the talented 25-year-old pop star said. "Well, she's like from the U.K., so, like, her humor is super different. She's also just like, such a bitch.'

Rapp told Bird that she had heard 'so much' about her, but instead of being flattered, the 'Drain Me!' singer responded by asking, 'Why are you talking about me so much then?'
The second time they met, the two lesbians started talking about what cars they drove, and Rapp said that she 'wouldn't have pegged' Bird for someone who owned 'that kind of car.'
Bird cheekily responded, 'Oh, you don't want to peg me?'
Poehler jumped in to say, 'She topped a top,' which Rapp immediately agreed with. 'She literally topped a top. She out flirted me,' she said.
Despite their relationship starting with Bird 'really negging' Rapp, according to Poehler, the 26-year-old guitar player was the first one to say 'I love you.'
While on the beach "high out of our minds,' Bird said the three magical words, but instead of saying them back, Rapp 'didn't say a word' and then asked her girlfriend to repeat herself.
"And she was like, 'Are you f---ing kidding me right now?'" she remembered Bird saying before Rapp said she felt the same.
