Emily Ratajkowski has set the rumor mill ablaze after she was spotted supporting country sensation Shaboozey at Z100’s annual summer bash. The model and actress, known for her high-profile relationships, seemed to confirm speculation about a budding romance when she made a discreet appearance at his performance on Thursday night, August 8, 2024. This marked their second public outing in just two days, further fueling rumors that the two are getting closer.
Emily Ratajkowski, dressed in an all-black ensemble with dark sunglasses, appeared to be trying to keep a low profile at the event. According to sources, there was a strict “no pictures” policy surrounding her presence, with her team reportedly ensuring that even Z100 was unable to capture official photos of the star. Despite these efforts, the iHeartRadio station still managed to share some footage of the “My Body” author swaying along to Shaboozey’s performance on their social media channels. In the clips, Ratajkowski can be seen watching the show from a secluded spot, separated from the main crowd.
While the two stars have not officially confirmed their relationship, the pair has been seen together multiple times in New York City, sparking rumors that they are exploring a romantic connection. Just days before the Z100 bash, Emily Ratajkowski and Shaboozey were spotted holding hands at a New York nightclub, adding fuel to the dating speculation. According to TMZ
Rumors of their romance first emerged on Tuesday, August 6, 2024, when the duo was seen chatting backstage at Rema’s album-release party in NYC. Reports soon followed that they were holding hands and showing affection throughout the evening. The very next night, they were seen together again at the Z100 Summer Bash, where Ratajkowski was spotted dancing to Shaboozey’s hit song and later chatting with him backstage.
The origins of their connection remain somewhat mysterious, but insiders believe the pair may have first crossed paths at Michael Rubin’s star-studded Fourth of July White Party in the Hamptons. Since then, they have been spotted together at various events, including a dinner in Soho and a night out at Manhattan’s Musica nightclub. The latter sighting saw the two arriving at the club around 11 p.m., holding hands as they made their entrance. Clubgoers noted that the pair appeared to be very comfortable with each other, spending the night dancing closely and sipping tequila before leaving together around 1 a.m.
Shaboozey, who has recently been enjoying a surge in popularity with his chart-topping track “A Bar Song (Tipsy)” and features on Beyoncé’s 2024 album “Cowboy Carter,” was also spotted with Ratajkowski earlier this summer at a dinner in Soho. The singer is reportedly coming off a recent breakup but seems to be moving on as he spends more time with the New York-based model.
Emily Ratajkowski, who finalized her divorce from Sebastian Bear-McClard in 2022, has been linked to several celebrities over the past year, including Harry Styles, Eric André, and Pete Davidson. However, her recent outings with Shaboozey suggest she may be exploring something new, albeit casually. According to sources, the two are not officially dating but are enjoying each other’s company as they navigate their busy schedules.
For now, fans will have to wait and see if this summer romance blossoms into something more serious, or if it remains a casual fling between two of the entertainment industry’s rising stars.
