Troye Sivan is bringing the "Rush" into 2025 through a cheeky new campaign with Grindr that features the singer and his dancers on the Something to Give Each Other Tour playing a game of "Tap or Block" inspired by the Queen of Pop herself, Madonna.

"Dating and hooking up can be complex, sexy, messy, intoxicating, and confusing," Sivan said in a statement about the new partnership. "I love how Grindr and this campaign celebrate all of this with humor, honesty, and through community. It's refreshing to show these conversations in an authentic way."

In a video titled "Grindr Presents: TAP or BLOCK with Troye Sivan," the singer is shown backstage during the Something to Give Each Other Tour with his fellow dance crew of Ainsley Hall Ricketts, Benjamin Williams, Mauro van de Kerkhof, Simone Nolasco, Samuel Mena Garcia, and Theo Alexander Hakim Maddix.

"The rules are simple," Sivan tells the group. "I'm gonna read something out. If you're into it, you say 'tap.' If you're not, you say 'block.'" Question number one: Hotel sex?

Sivan's new Grindr collab is inspired by the Madonna: Truth or Dare documentary film that unleashed a very candid and fun portrait of Madonna's life on the road with her group of dancers in the 1990 Blond Ambition World Tour.

In this modern-day (and even gayer) adaptation of the game in the age of Grindr, Sivan and the Something to Give Each Other Tour dancers explore the silly — and often unexpected — nuances between queer people dating and hooking up with a little help from their phones.
