Omar Apollo talks cruising, Facetime sex & sugar daddies in hilariously unhinged new interview
The singer appeared on the Throwing Fits podcast where he got candid about some spicy topics!
Omar Apollo gave the most unhinged interview on a recent episode of the Throwing Fits podcast with James Harris and Lawrence Schlossman.
Apollo didn't just stick to talking about his music (his sophomore album God Said No is coming out June 28) — he also revealed how he feels about FaceTime sex, cruising, and sugar daddies!
"Facetime sex is like, I've only done it a few times," Apollo revealed in a clip from the podcast released on Instagram.
"How'd it go? You bust?" Schlossman asked.
"I low key just got hard," Apollo replied. (What is happening!?!?)
When asked if he does front camera or back camera, Apollo quickly said he only uses the back camera because "I can't show my face."
"Facetime sex is hot, not gonna lie. Yeah it is hot, I think because you know the... like if there's a screenshot, its like, 'Oh fuck!'"
Harris then asked if that means he likes the risk.
"Yeah, something about the risk. That might be an inherently gay thing. Just like, that adrenaline, you know what I mean? Like, you know what cruising is?" he asked the two straight hosts, who immediately said yes.
They said that cruising was invented in their hometown of New York City in Central Park, and brought up the 1980 film starring Al Pacino.
"I love that movie," Apollo said.
"If you had to date one of us, who would it be?" Harris asked.
"I feel like you," he said, smiling and pointing at Harris. "I don't wanna say what's on my mind about you."
"Can you tell me I'm cute, just so I feel good," Schlossman then asked.
"Yeah, you probably like, a little pink, huh?" Apollo said, referring to Scholassman's "tip." How is this allowed?!?
In another clip, Apollo was asked about growing up as a gay Mexican-American man in Indiana, saying "it sucked."
"[Being tall and handsome] doesn't work when you're there. I guess it does? I had, like, sugar daddies and shit going on."
He then revealed that he had sugar daddies who would talk to him on the phone and give him money.
"I would just like, buy gear. Like a bass, like a laptop," he revealed.
When the hosts asked if it would be accurate to say that sex work is responsible for his music career, Apollo responded, "I would like to think of it as like, charity to the young LGBTQ+ community."
We will never stop loving this man!
