Reba McEntire Asked Troye Sivan What Poppers Are & We're Losing It
The country music star asked an innocent question and now we can't stop cackling!
We never thought we’d hear the words "Reba McEntire" and "poppers" in the same sentence, but here we are!
The country music legend appeared on Wednesday night’s episode of Watch What Happens Live and asked one of the straightest questions we’ve heard in a hot minute.
McEntire was a guest on Andy Cohen’s talk show along with gay pop star Troye Sivan who released a single earlier this year called “Rush” all about taking poppers during a hookup.
During a segment on the show where viewers get the chance to ask the guests questions, one fan wanted to know if it was true that the “My My My!” singer used poppers before shooting the cover art for “Rush.”
“That is true, yeah,” Sivan admitted. “I just wanted it to feel very intimate and very real and it ended up being my favorite part of the photo. There’s a little kind of vein in my head.”
Cohen responded by saying “Oh wow” before moving on to read a question from a viewer who asked, “Reba, have you ever done poppers?”
McEntire quickly said “I don’t think so” and then turned to face Sivan and asked him, “What is a popper?”
Oh, you sweet summer child!
Applause and laughter broke out and Andy hilariously said, “We’re gonna talk about it during the break.”
We would have loved to have been a fly on the wall backstage when the two men tried to explain it to her!
Sivan’s newest album Something To Give Each Other is available on all streaming platforms.
