Inside Phoebe Bridgers' Relationship With Paul Mescal

Posted by Tandra Barner on Tuesday, May 28, 2024

It all began with a single tweet in 2020. Phoebe had just finished watching Paul's show "Normal People" and figured she'd tweet her opinion about it. "Finished "Normal People," and now I'm sad and horny," she said.

It's a normal thing to put a tweet like that out into the universe, but when you're a celebrity, there's a strong chance someone will notice, and that's exactly what happened. Paul responded to her tweet, saying, "I'm officially dead."

Now, if this was us, we'd be absolutely mortified. Imagine saying a show made you horny only to have the actor respond a few hours later. We'd probably have to delete all our social media accounts out of pure shame. Phoebe, however, simply responded, "Nooo, don't die, you're so talented aha," (via Twitter). She's not wrong; he is super talented. We don't know if they knew back then, but this was the start of a really cute relationship.
