Last month, the makeup mogul broke the internet by convincing followers he's hooking up with a professional football star.

Throughout his many years in the spotlight, Jeffree Star has undeniably been at the centre of several controversies. Most recently, the beauty content creator sparked major discourse online as he teased the potential "NFL boo" in his life. Last month, Star shared a photo taken on a private jet that shows his claw-manicure-clad hand wrapped around another white man's.

Immediately after the post hit socials, internet sleuths chiefly began guessing who the entertainer could possibly be romancing. The anonymous athlete's shoes and pants were used as clues, as well as minuscule details about his hands. As Daily Mail notes, fans became so obsessed with unravelling the mystery that an NFL WAGs host has been forced to come forward and insist that her man isn't seeing Jeffree on the side.

For his part, Star has been doing little to shut down the gossip. In fact, this week, he finally unmasked the identity of his footballer beau – Tennessee Titans player, Taylor Lewan. In a post earlier this month, the 37-year-old began dropping hints to help curious users out. "His team didn't make it to the #SuperBowl but he's 6'6" and plays perfect in the bedroom," he wrote in the caption of a mirror selfie that finds his beau facing backwards while they hold hands.

Of course, there are those skeptical about the validity of the apparent relationship. Some have pointed out that Lewan is married and a father, while others note that the same circumstances haven't stopped athletes from cheating in the past. It's also been pointed out that Jeffree recently filmed an episode of Bussin' With The Boys, a podcast hosted by his rumoured man and former NFL player Will Compton.

Of course, Jeffree Star is no stranger to controversy. As 2022 was coming to an end, he subsequently went viral on Twitter after posting about the Illuminati. In a series of tweets, the controversial YouTuber claimed that the organization of elites is targeting famous figures like Kanye West and Britney Spears.

"It’s 10 times worse than you can ever imagine," Star said of his experience previously evading the organization. "Just be thankful you are on the other side." Read social media's reaction to the creative's concerning posts here, and check back later for more pop culture news updates.
