Eating sushi with Reneé Rapp while she dishes on her love life? Dream date status. In the premiere episode of “Blind Date,” the ‘Bite Me’ singer joins Cosmo’s Editor-in-Chief Willa Bennett for a three-course meal—except Willa has no idea who she’s dining with. Over extra dirty martinis, Reneé spills on her relationship non-negotiables (shoutout to #TowaBird for having a job), the time she made the first move on a male co-worker, and just how good of a kisser she *really* is. Watch as Reneé gets real about being seriously open to a sugar daddy—as long as he has a boat—and why she wore a bra on this date, even though she prefers to keep her “rack energy” under wraps.

00:01I couldn't do that.
00:02I'd be like, pitchy.

00:08And this is Blind Date, where I go on blind dates
00:11with my celebrity friends.

00:18I will be pulling from old Cosmos
00:19and exploring the intricacies of love and relationships.

01:29So I'm like...
01:30You think my voice is hot?
01:32Yeah.
01:33Give me that.
01:34Think about the one time you have been to my house.

01:42Renee Rapp.
01:43Yes!
01:44Yes!
01:45Wait, I need to tell everyone this story.

01:48Yeah.
01:49No, this is insane.
01:50I'm so excited to have you.
01:51This is your fine baby.
01:53So basically, Renee Rapp invited me to a birthday.
01:56Yes.
01:57And I read the wrong date.
01:58So I actually went the wrong night.
02:00And it was...
02:01A week before.
02:02And I texted her like, hey, where's the party?
02:04And she's like, question mark?
02:06It was a surprise party for the next weekend.
02:08So I was like, Will is here.
02:11I was like, OK.
02:13Like, you can't come in.
02:14I look at the text, and I'm like, wrong date.
02:16It was honestly really funny.
02:19Oh my God, I'm so happy to see you.
02:20Your new music is so good.
02:22I'm a real bad girl, but a real good kisser.
02:27Would you say you're a bad girl, but a real good kisser?
02:29I would say I'm a super, super, super good kisser.
02:33What makes a good kisser?
02:35A lot of charisma.
02:38A lot of...
02:38So me, basically.
02:39No, so you.
02:40No experience.
02:41I've never had a girlfriend or sexual...
02:44I have one.
02:45Love you, sweetie.
02:47And just, like, time.
02:49Time and vibes.
02:51Yeah, time and vibes.
02:52I think it's about, like, slow and steady.
02:55Love slow and steady.
02:56The rabbit.
02:57Too fast, too much.
02:58No.
02:58For me.
02:59Or no, not, sorry.
03:00The turtle.
03:01What the is the turtle?
03:02Do you know what I'm talking about?
03:03The tortoise and the hare?
03:04No idea.
03:04Like, slow and steady wins the race.
03:06Oh, yeah, yeah, totally.
03:07Oh, it's the tortoise, not the rabbit.
03:08Don't be the rabbit.
03:09Okay, so we're gonna look through old Cosmos at their dating advice, and you're gonna tell
03:16me what you think.
03:17Happy to.
03:18Happy to.
03:19Happy to.
03:202002.
03:21How old were you at that time?
03:22I was 56.
03:23So true.
03:24I was two.
03:25I'm so gassed.
03:26I'm so gassed.
03:27This was what I should ask on a first date according to Cosmopolitan in 2002.
03:30Are you ready?
03:31I'm excited.
03:32If we peeked into your closet, what would I see?
03:34You would see like four racks of pants, color-coordinated, jeans of a blue variety, jeans of a black variety, and then no t-shirts, no bras, no underwear.
03:48I have a couple bras.
03:50I don't like them.
03:51I don't wear them.
03:52You're all wearing a bra now?
03:53I have a bra now, but it's like a...
03:55Because you're at Cosmo.
03:56I'm at Cosmo.
03:57I had to wear a bra.
03:59I didn't.
04:01Y'all pissed me off that you can do that.
04:03Why?
04:04I mean, bitches with boobs that can do that.
04:07I'm loving this date.
04:08They just become my whole outfit is like rack on display, which is cool.
04:14And I usually love that.
04:15But like for today, I was like, I don't want to give it away when I walk in the door and you feel this enormous rack sat to your left, nipples on 10.
04:23And you're like, holy , baddie in the room, Renee.
04:29You know, I can't get that.
04:30That's exactly what happened.
04:31I was like, baddie in the room, I need to take, I'm sweating.
04:34Okay, congratulations.
04:35You're still a thousand dollars.
04:36How do you plan to spend it?
04:37Tell us.
04:38I never, ever, ever used to spend money on dates or on people, no matter how long we were together.
04:45Whoa.
04:46I would just like, yeah, I was like, no, you don't get anything until I started dating my girlfriend.
04:51And now I'm like, shorty anything you want.
04:53I get you.
04:54So you're down bad.
04:55That's .
04:57Head to toe designer, private jet.
05:00I'm like paying for dinner now, I guess.
05:02That's my big step.
05:04You're paying for this dinner?
05:05I'll totally pay for you.
05:06For sure.
05:08Have you ever written a song about me?
05:09There are several that have to do with you.
05:11You're my muse.
05:13You're my shorty.
05:14I'm obsessed with this date.
05:16This is the best date I've ever been on.
05:18Yeah.
05:19Honestly, how sexually adventurous are you?
05:21Um, I've actually never had sex.
05:23If someone asked me that on a first date, I'd be like, hard, I'm in.
05:29You think if somebody asked you that, you'd be like, shut up.
05:32I would take a sip of my drink.
05:33Sure.
05:34Eye contact.
05:35Right.
05:36Show, don't tell.
05:37100%.
05:40That'd be so hard.
05:41But people who like, talk about being good at sex, not good at sex.
05:44No!
05:45Oh my god, shut up, shut up.
05:46No, not at all.
05:47You can't talk about being good at sex, but like, if you talk about like, if you're like,
05:51adventurous, or like, what are you like, willing to do, then like, I think that's cool.
05:56Have you ever gotten up the guts to make a move on a male coworker?
06:00Yeah.
06:02Not what you thought I would say, huh?
06:05No, definitely.
06:06He's a friend of mine now.
06:07And I'm trying to put him on with my friend's little sister.
06:10Because he's such a little cutie pie.
06:12He's so pretty.
06:13And I'm like, wait, this is my ex.
06:15I promise he's good.
06:17Like, I vetted it in every direction.
06:19Trust me.
06:20Tried it?
06:21Lovely.
06:22Do it.
06:23You meet a hot guy outside of a coffee shop.
06:25And he goes, spend the rest of the day with me.
06:26Mm-hmm.
06:27What would you do?
06:28If he has money, I'll do it.
06:29By the way, just so you know, I'm very, very open to sugar daddy.
06:32I'm not doing shit with you.
06:34But my friends and I want a boat.
06:37We want a boat.
06:38We're all really pretty.
06:43Do you want to read some Cosmo reader questions?
06:45I've not seen these.
06:46So they're inappropriate.
06:48I would hate that.
06:49Three non-negotiables in a relationship.
06:51Please leave me by myself.
06:53I need my time to flourish.
06:55I cannot be your entire world.
06:57I cannot be your entire world.
06:59You got to have something else going on.
07:01Second, my friends have to like you.
07:04My friends are the coolest people in the world.
07:06Like, you have to be liked to be my friends.
07:09And then the third, I get it, it's hard.
07:12Get a goddamn job.
07:13I'm so sorry.
07:15Get a goddamn job.
07:16Have you dated someone unemployed?
07:18Absolutely.
07:19Two of them.
07:20In a row.
07:21Get a goddamn job.
07:22You got to do something else other than me.
07:24I get it.
07:25Tempting.
07:26You got to do something else.
07:27Shout out to my girl for having a job.
07:28Like, thanks, girl.
07:30Oh, that's fun.
07:32It's really good.
07:33What is the first thing you notice about someone
07:35you're interested in?
07:36Face.
07:37Next question.
07:38So true.
07:39Name three songs you put on a playlist to set the mood
07:41to have sex.
07:42I don't know.
07:43I don't know.
07:44I don't know.
07:45Have you ever had sex to your own music?
07:46I feel like Toa would literally spit in my face.
07:48Like, she'd be like, you ass .
07:51And not in a hot way.
07:53Also, I couldn't do that.
07:54I'd be like, pitchy.
07:55Oh, would you have sex to her music?
07:57I'm not to her music.
07:59Yeah, you're like, I'm the star.
08:00Yeah, I'm like, this is about me.
08:02What are you doing?
08:03What's the shadiest thing you've done to an ex?
08:06I'm a pretty fun ex to have.
08:08I think the shadiest thing.
08:09Why?
08:10Just because, like, you'll never escape me.
08:13I mean, that's not fun.
08:14That's miserable.
08:15That's a miserable life.
08:16I had a boyfriend who broke up with me once.
08:18And, like, we had been together for, like, multiple years.
08:20And he was trying to be, like, really careful and sweet about it.
08:23Even though he was a jackass.
08:25But he was, like, trying to be nice.
08:26Sorry.
08:27For once in his life, I literally laughed at him on the phone
08:30and was like, you're so pathetic and hung up
08:32and we never spoke again.
08:33But that's not shady.
08:34That's just, like, I think you're pathetic.
08:36Describe your romantic fantasy.
08:39Um, my romantic fantasy?
08:44It's for me.
08:45Oh, .
08:48I have just recently become okay with doing things
08:51that are sentimental.
08:53Like, if somebody used to be like, I love you,
08:56I'd be like, okay.
08:58But now I love it.
08:59But I've just recently crossed to that point
09:02where I'm starting to think those things are cool.
09:04And what changed?
09:07I just don't hate my partner.
09:10What's your biggest advice to a new couple?
09:14If you think you hate them, you probably do.
09:17Also, if someone's using you, you can tell.
09:20And usually your friends are right.
09:22And if they're wrong, you need better friends.
09:24And date your friends.
09:26Oh, really?
09:27Totally.
09:28Will you go on another date with me?
09:29Happily.
09:30On Friday.
09:31Cheers. I can't wait.
09:32Love you.
09:33Oh, I love you so bad.
09:37I love you.
09:38I love you.
09:39I love you.
09:40I love you.
