Soul singer SZA has joined the 4B Movement alongside millions of women who have given up on sëx with men amid Donald Trump’s re-election.
SZA told British Vogue that she’s in an “emotional relationship” with her longtime bestie, a woman named Amber. She said she wants to start a family with Amber.
Amber and SZA first met at college orientation at Delaware State University in the late 2000s. They recently decided to take their relationship to the next level.
They first connected over “being strange”, Amber explained.
“I really do have a deep belief that we’re a split atom or something,” Amber says, getting choked up. “[SZA] didn’t necessarily fit in in high school, and I didn’t really fit in ever or have anybody to really relate to outside of my sister.”
SZA agrees: “It’s the feeling of otherness in all situations. Sometimes it’s like a cold feeling of ‘we’re outside of this’. I don’t feel that I belong here, but somehow we belong with each other.”

“It’s sad. It’s like, if I don’t have a child in the next year or two, I might not. But I might have a kid any day – for real,” she says. “She’s the only person that I could have a child with at this point. I’ll just wear her down eventually. But who else would be a life partner? [Men] come and go, like the wind. They’re insane. Mentally unwell.”
SZA regrets getting a Brazilian butt lift (BBL)
SZA explained, “I gained all this weight from being immobile while recovering and trying to preserve the fat. It was just so stupid. But who gives a f*ck? You got a BBL, you realize you didn’t need the shit. It doesn’t matter. I’ll do a whole bunch more sh*t just like it if I want to before I’m f*cking dead because this body is temporary.”
She continued, “It just wasn’t super necessary – I have other sh*t that I need to work on about myself… I need to get my f*cking mental health together… Not to say you can’t do those things simultaneously, just, for me, I realize wherever you go, there you’ll be. But I love my butt. Don’t get me wrong. My booty look nice. And I’m grateful that it looks pretty much… I don’t know, sometimes natural, but I don’t even care. It’s something that I wanted. I’m enjoying it. I love shaking it.”
