Dove Cameron fancies the "gayest crossover of all time" with Lil Nas X, and who are we to disagree?
The 'Boyfriend' hitmaker - who has previously said she identifies most with the term “queer” to describe her sexuality - was blown away to find out the 'Old Town Road' rapper is also a big fan of her. She hopes they can collab on a song in the future.
Speaking to The Sun newspaper's Bizarre column: "I had this song called 'We Belong' two years ago and he messaged me out of nowhere and said, 'I love your new song', and I was like, 'What? How do you even know who I am?'
"He's lovely and very supportive. He's one of the coolest people in the world so I'm very flattered.
"I would love to work with Lil Nas X. That would be one of the collaborations of my dreams. It would be the gayest crossover of all time."

The former Disney star released 'Boyfriend' after a clip of the song went viral on TikTok, and she said she didn't expect to be releasing such a personal song out there already.
The 26-year-old singer said "This is definitely not a song I imagined I would be sharing with people. I didn't know if I was ever going to put it out.
"So to see the reception both in the US and globally, it's very strange and an amazing, unexpected feeling."

In the meantime, she was forced to come out publicly when she dropped the lyric video for ‘We Belong’, as she was accused of “queerbaiting” for including drawings of two women kissing.
She previously told fans: “I went on Instagram Live and said ‘Guys, I really needed to explain something to you. Maybe I haven’t said it, but I’m super queer. This is something I want to represent through my music because it’s who I am.' ”
Let's watch this space.
