The Actress Recently Said She Was A Lesbian
The “Uncut Gems” star, who briefly dated rapper Kanye West in 2022, disclosed that she’s a lesbian.
The model took to TikTok at the time to reply to a user’s remark, who said, “I love when I see a lesbian with their boyfriend. It’s like ‘Aww, you hate that man. You literally hate him.'”
She stitched the post and replied, “Hey, that was me. I was that lesbian. So sorry, boys. Won’t happen again.”
In the video post, Fox could be seen walking along a busy street while donning a sunshade and leaving her hair unpacked.
She previously weighed in on the prospects of dating a woman during a 2022 interview with Ziwe.
“I have some gay bone [in my body] and I need to explore that a little bit more,” Fox told the host. “Like, maybe my ex-boyfriends weren’t wrong when they were calling me a lesbian and complaining that I never wanted to have sex with them.”

She Claimed She Was Celibate
Fox previously made the disclosure that she had not had sex for more than two years when she replied to a controversial billboard ad from the popular dating app Bumble that read, “A vow of celibacy is not the answer.”
During an interview with The New York Times, Fox explained that despite the fact she was with Kanye West at some point, they did not have sex when they were together.
“Because there, like, wasn’t any,” she replied when asked about her sexual encounters with the “Donda” rapper. “It wasn’t really about that.”
Fox then appeared on “Watch What Happens Live!” with Andy Cohen, where she opened up on her reason for staying celibate, per the Daily Mail.
Why Julia Fox Decided To Become Celibate
During her appearance on “WWHL,” Cohen read out a fan question for Fox that asked, “What’s your reasoning behind being celibate, and in what ways do you believe it has improved your life?”
She replied, “Well, I just think nothing good comes from having sex, including children,” before adding that she was “just kidding!”
“I think with the overturning of Roe v. Wade, and you know, our rights being stripped away from us, this is a way that I can take back control,” Fox explained. “And it just sucks that it has to be in that way, but I just don’t feel comfortable until things change.”
