Troye Sivan Finds True Comfort in Female Orbit

Pop star Troye Sivan shared that he feels most comfortable and happy when surrounded by women. This realization has become a central theme for his forthcoming fourth studio album, "She's the Best," scheduled for release on October 9th.

Sivan elaborated to Zane Lowe that the safety and protection he has felt from women is something he hasn't experienced with men. This supportive presence has been a constant in his life since day one, influencing his creative process.

The upcoming album draws inspiration from various women who have occupied this significant orbit in his life. Collaborations mentioned include work with Ariana Grande, Lily-Rose Depp, and Nicole Kidman, as well as his tour with Charli XCX.

This feeling also evokes nostalgic memories of Sivan's teenage years, where he preferred getting ready for parties with his female friends over the parties themselves. He recalled these moments as being more enjoyable than the events.

The artist noted that his experiences at parties were often marred by homophobic encounters with boys, highlighting the stark contrast in spaces where he felt a sense of belonging versus those where he did not.

"She's the Best" follows his recent single "Party," which samples Madonna's 2000 hit "Music." The album also features an eclectic roster of collaborators, including Charli XCX, Ian McKellen, and Nicole Kidman, further underscoring the diverse influences on his work.
