Later on, Bobby got a DM from said neighbor sharing her phone number. “I guess she was like, ‘Bitch, how do you not know who I am?'” he recalled, laughing.
The Charli in question? Charli XCX.
“It was very cute that she’s ‘in the biz’ because she’s huge!” Bobby added. “And I was literally listening to her music that morning on my workout playlist.”
While the DM exchange makes for a great story, it’s actually not Bobby’s most memorable. That honor belongs to a pastor who had managed to watch the Queer Eye episode in which Bobby opened up about his struggle with his religion, “expressing the hurt and the pain and me begging God my whole life not to make me gay.”
According to Bobby, the message read, “I realized being gay is not a choice and, as a pastor, I will never preach that hate in church again.”
“To this day,” Bobby noted, “it’s my favorite DM I’ve ever gotten.”
