RAYE and Michael B. Jordan are not thought to be romantically involved after the pair sent TikTok into meltdown last week after fans caught them laughing and chatting together at Six Flags Magic Mountain outside Los Angeles.
In the viral clip, the WHERE IS MY HUSBAND! singer, 28, and the 39-year-old actor were seen side‑by‑side as they waited for a rollercoaster to launch, and another photo showed them seated together on a second ride before take‑off.
But despite the internet’s immediate romance theories, insiders say the link‑up was strictly professional.
A source told TMZ the singer is working on the soundtrack for a movie Jordan is involved in, which brought them together for some off‑site downtime. The insider added that “RAYE and Michael are just friends and have never been on a date,” stressing there’s “never been anything romantic between them” despite their close appearance at the park.
It’s not yet known which film RAYE is contributing music to, but Jordan has a packed slate. He’s attached to a remake of The Thomas Crown Affair, Rainbow Six, and the upcoming Miami Vice ’85 alongside Austin Butler. His production company, Outlier Society, is also developing Methuselah, I Am Legend 2 and Creed 4.
RAYE previously vowed not to release another record until she meets the love of her life.
The Escapism singer released her second record, This Music May Contain Hope, earlier this year, and she’s got ideas for the follow-up already – but admitted fans will have to wait until her personal life is settled before she works on the concept.
She laughed to The Times newspaper: “My third album, I think I’ve named it already.
“It’s going to be called And Then She Fell in Love. And I’m not writing a single song – be it one year, five years, ten years – until that chapter of my life begins.”
