"As such, Puth's music has always been adjacent to queer community. Puth boosted his allure by sharing some rather cheeky (pun intended) Instagram pics and TikToks in recent years. Some have welcomed it all while others have accused the singer-songwriter of 'queerbaiting'. The term refers to when someone or something presents as being queer without actually identifying as such. Discussing his thirst traps and working out videos with GQ in 2022, Puth explained that in the then post break-up life: "I am very horny. All the time." He added: "These gym sessions are expensive in LA!""
""I think LGBTQ+ culture is so ahead of its time, culturally, sonically, musically, everything-ly that when I had a less than perfect song at the studio and I was by myself and I saw everybody having a great time, I literally heard a different song in my head," Puth told GQ. He added: "I rearranged the whole thing. I drove back to the studio, I was so inspired.""
Charlie Puth is performing the national anthem at Levi's Stadium for Super Bowl events and has a long pop career with hits like "Attention" and collaborations with Little Mix, Meghan Trainor and Selena Gomez. His social media posts, including cheeky Instagram and TikTok content, have drawn both praise and accusations of queerbaiting. Puth said he did not want to antagonise anybody and that he draws inspiration from LGBTQ+ culture, citing seeing queer people dancing to Madonna and reshaping his song "Loser" after that experience. He described being very horny after a breakup and noted that his gym sessions are expensive in LA.
