Is Phoebe Bridgers dating Bo Burnham? Couple spotted at comedy show after singer's split with Paul Mescal
NEW YORK CITY, NEW YORK: American singer Phoebe Bridgers and filmmaker and comedian Bo Burnham attended Kate Berlant‘s One-Woman show on Monday, December 19. This has led many to believe that the couple is involved in a romantic relationship as they sat beside each other in the audience at Connelly Theater in New York City. Bridgers and Burnham have been friends since 2021. The 28-year-old, who will be opening for Taylor Swift on her upcoming tour next year, got "undivided and doting attention" from Burnham, as per Daily Mail.
An insider revealed that Burnham tried to impress the singer and the chemistry between them seemingly "felt flirtatious," reported Jezebel. Burnham also directed Berlant's show and stepped on stage to help with some technical difficulties that led to the performance getting canceled. Prior to their recent appearance, multiple reports have revealed that they were seen "making out" and "canoodling" around Los Angeles after her shocking split from Paul Mescal, according to Daily Mail.

Bridgers and Burnham posed for a photo together last week which showed her kissing Matthew Healy as Burnham stood behind them with his eyes closed. "Gay Poets Society," the image was captioned, which received more than 434,472 likes.
Earlier this year, Bridgers and Mescal sparked engagement rumors before recently calling it quits. They first publicly revealed their relationship on Instagram last December, with a very loved-up image of the two of them. The pair walked the red carpet at LACMA Art+Film Gala the previous month and were also spotted on a very cozy walk in Los Angeles. The couple was first romantically linked to one another after a source told that they spent a weekend together in August 2020, reported GQ magazine.
"Paul invited pals and they played wild drinking games. They're both smitten. His membership on the celeb dating site Raya is a smokescreen to cover up that they're secretly an item", the insider shared. Mescel previously opened up about his love, saying to GQ magazine, "To have someone to lean on through such a mad, mad time has been invaluable. Really, I don’t know where I’d be without her." Meanwhile, Bridgers told NME magazine in May that she thought Paul was a "cute boy" after becoming a fan of his after watching 'Normal People'. "I got a little pitter-patter in my heart when I saw", she gushed.
MEAWW previously reported that Phoebe Bridgers accused Marilyn Manson of abusing women. According to her, she once went to his house with some friends and he said he had a “rape room." At the time, she was a "big fan." When he said that to her, she thought it was an example of his "frat boy sense of humor" and "stopped being a fan."
