Diplo 'Not Not Gay'? DJ Opens Up About His Sexuality with Emily Ratajkowski

Diplo has some pretty interesting insights into his sexuality and everyone else's.

He sat down with Emily Ratajkowski for her podcast, "High Low" and candidly spoke about his sexual experience with men and his sexual orientation.

"I'm sure I've gotten a blowjob from a guy before," the DJ remarked casually. "For sure. 100% yeah."

He then elaborated on why he thought this did not warrant him to automatically be gay: "I don't know if it's gay unless you like [make] eye contact while there's the blowjob happening."

Elsewhere in the podcast, Diplo clarifies his sexuality, after Ratajkowski chastised him for his earlier comment, noting it was "such a straight guy thing to say."

"I think the best answer I have is I'm not not gay," the DJ explained. There are a couple guys... I could date, life partner-wise."

According to Out, this is not the first time Diplo has talked about sexual orientation. In 2014, he shared that he thinks "everyone's a lil gay."

He, of course, is no exception to his own comment; and this is seen when he pulled the Brazilian drag queen Pabllo Vittar in for a French kiss in 2018.

Despite saying that he is "not not gay," Diplo still insists that he isn't necessarily a member of the LGBTQIA+.

On the other hand, Ratajkowski also had a take on sexual orientation and its fluid state.

"I think sexuality is on a sliding scale. I don't really believe in straight people," she previously told Harper's Bazaar.

The model/actress was linked to several people before, like Pete Davidson, Brad Pitt, Sebastian Bear-McClard, and more. She also opened up about having a girlfriend.

To say that Ratajkowski's episode with Diplo was interesting is an understatement, especially since Diplo, as a musician, boasts a colorful and long list of collaborators and discography.

Born Thomas Wesley Pentz, Diplo began taking an interest in music at a young age. Before becoming a DJ, he worked at a local radio station at his college.

He is known to collaborate with some of the hottest and most talented stars of the generation, including Sia, Gwen Staffani, Britney Spears, Ellie Goulding, Snoop Dogg, Usher, Madonna, Shakira, Beyonce, Justin Bieber, Chris Brown, Bad Bunny, and more.

He dropped his first studio album "Florida" in 2004, followed by "Diplo Presents Thomas Wesley, Chapter 1: Snake Oil" and "MMXX" in 2020, and "Diplo" in 2022.
