Reneé Rapp Owns Her Story, Her Music, and Her Love

Reneé Rapp is having a moment, and it’s not just about the music charts—it’s about identity, love, and unapologetically living life on her own terms. At only twenty-five, she’s already gone from Broadway to television, and now, she’s leading a full-blown pop takeover with her latest album and a headlining tour.

This past month, her name popped up in headlines after fellow singer Betty Who commented that she would “hold space” if Reneé ever ended up in a relationship with a man in the future. Reneé was quick to set the record straight—firmly, confidently, and without hesitation. She made it clear that that’s simply not going to happen. As she put it herself, the speculation can stop, because she isn’t ending up with a man.

Mean Girls back in 2019, later stepping into television with Mindy Kaling’s The Sex Lives of College Girls , and eventually carving out her own lane in music. Her debut album Snow Angel in 2023 set the stage, but her sophomore project, Bite Me , took things to the next level by landing her first UK number one album.

Her music is raw, jagged, and deeply personal—she describes it as a time capsule of the past few years, filled with both highs and lows. The themes of queerness and love are unapologetically front and center. When Reneé sings about her sexuality, it isn’t some conscious statement she’s forcing into her art; it’s simply her life. As she points out, every space she enters is queer, because she and her community live authentically that way.

A huge part of this chapter in her story is her relationship with British Filipino musician Towa Bird. Reneé lights up when she talks about her, describing their love as incomparable to anything she’s experienced before. To her, Towa is “one of one”—a partner who exists in her own lane, unmatched by past relationships. Their connection has become a visible and celebrated part of Reneé’s identity, both personally and in her art.

As she heads out on the Bite Me tour, Reneé is determined to approach this run differently than before. Touring during heartbreak once left her feeling numb, like she was performing in survival mode. This time, she’s entering the stage with joy, ready to actually enjoy the ride instead of trudging through it.
