These TikTok Stars Are Rumoured To Be In A Gay Relationship! Is It Love Or A Queerbait?
Noah Beck is most widely recognised as a social media influencer and the ex-boyfriend of dancer Dixie D’Amelio. Beck became popular for being one of the members of the Hype House and is now facing rumours that he’s potentially queer and dating fellow social media star Vinnie Hacker, reports Out.
Why so girly pop?
The internet has a long-standing tradition of shipping two men in the spotlight; think Benedict Cumberbatch and Martin Freeman from Sherlock. As time’s gone on, folks have moved from shipping characters to shipping social media personalities and Noah Beck is the latest fascination.
Why the sudden speculation about his sexuality? The answer is a little complicated so follow along. When Beck began getting huge on TikTok his content mainly stuck to viral dance trends with other ostensibly straight men. Recently he’s begun experimenting with his fashion, such as when he featured on the cover of VMan Magazine in fishnets, heels and makeup.
Then there’s a video of Beck vacationing in the Bahamas where he was pulled on stage with a performer who says, “I know you’re gay, just go with it.” When the influencer wasn’t phased, many took this to be a confirmation of him being gay. His close friendship with Vinnie Hacker has also wrought rumours the two are secretly dating, especially after new photos dropped showing the two embracing.
Beck went on a podcast with Zach Sang and shut down the rumours that the video was a coming out. He explained that he was just nervous and the performer was trying to diffuse the tension. “I think we were dancing for like a minute up there, a minute right? And there comes a point where I’m trying to, like, slip away, I’m like, ‘get me off this,’” he said. “And she knew that right? And she said that. And I didn’t think anything about it… People were like, ‘Is this a coming-out video?’ And I was like, ‘no, it’s just a funny video’.”
