Pop Star Tinashe Wrote Songs About ‘boo Thang' Ben Simmons

Pop star Tinashe opened up this week about her forthcoming album Joyride and her relationship with Philadelphia 76ers star Ben Simmons.

Tinashe and Simmons made their relationship "Instagram official" a couple of weeks back and called the rookie her "boo thang."

She joined Hot 97 to talk about the budding relationship. Is it love?

"I mean, I like him a lot," she said. "I like him a very lot -- an extreme lot."

She even admits she has written songs about Ben, but that they didn't make the cut for her new album.

"I wouldn't say for him, but I would say about him. I played him one once. It didn't make the album. Maybe on the next one."

Tinashe shows lots of support for Simmons and attends plenty of Sixers games.
