SZA, the Grammy-nominated R&B singer, has been the subject of many dating rumors over the years. But one of the most bizarre and unlikely ones involves Bill Nye, the famous science communicator and TV personality.
The rumor started on social media, when a user posted two old photos of SZA and Bill Nye together, with the caption: “wait. cause no one told me bill nye and sza were dating for 8 months”.
The photos were taken at a public event in 2017, where SZA performed and Bill Nye hosted. There was no indication that they were romantically involved, but the internet ran with the joke and created memes and videos suggesting that SZA’s song “Kill Bill” was actually about her ex-lover Bill Nye.
SZA herself responded to the rumor on her Instagram story, writing: “To hell … yall gotta go to hell”, along with three crying emojis. She later deleted the post.
So, did SZA date Bill Nye? The answer is no. The rumor was just a prank that went viral, and there is no evidence that they ever had a relationship.
Bill Nye is happily married to Liza Mundy, a journalist and author, whom he wed earlier this year.SZA has kept her dating history mostly private, but she has been linked to Drake, Kehlani, and Scott Sasso in the past.
SZA is currently enjoying the success of her latest album SOS, which features the hit single “Kill Bill”. The song is inspired by Quentin Tarantino’s movie of the same name, and it tells a story of revenge against a former partner. But it is not clear who SZA had in mind when she wrote it.
SZA and Bill Nye may have crossed paths once, but they never dated. They are both talented and respected in their own fields, but they have nothing in common when it comes to love.
