Are Emily Ratajkowski and rising country star Shaboozey a thing?
The model and author, 33, and the “A Bar Song (Tipsy)” singer, 29, continued to fuel romance rumors after they were spotted leaving a screening of Zoë Kravitz’s new film Blink twice together in New York on Wednesday, August 21.
Ratajkowski wore a gray mini dress and heels for the date, while Shaboozey (née Collins Chibueze) kept it casual in a light blue button-up dress over a white shirt.
The movie night comes weeks after Ratajkowski was spotted in the crowd watching the musician perform at the Z100 Summer Bash in New York on August 8. New York Post’s Page Six also previously reported that the two were seen “packing a PDA” at Musica nightclub in New York the day before.
Reps for Ratajkowski and Shaboozey have not commented on their relationship status.

Shaboozey enjoyed a meteoric rise to fame with the success of his chart-topping single “A Bar Song (Tipsy)” Billboard Hot 100 in July. The feat made him only the second black artist to ever top the Hot Country Songs and Hot 100 charts at the same time, following Beyoncé’s hit “Texas Hold ‘Em” in April.
“I’ve been doing music for so long, I’ve put a lot of time and years into it,” he told PEOPLE in June. “I’ve put so much into it that I feel like it’s great to see it work. Everyone hopes it works. Seeing it actually work is unreal. I feel like a dream. I feel like I’m bound to wake up at some point and say, ‘Damn, was that s— a dream?'”
His monster hit is on his major label debut album Where I’ve been is not where I’m goingwhich fell in May.
Meanwhile, Ratajkowski opened Glamour UK earlier this year about the struggles that come with dating in the spotlight, especially as a single mother. She and ex-husband Sebastian Bear-McClard, who divorced in 2022, have a son together, Sylvester, 3.

“I might do a very crazy high-profile thing to go in the back door [while on dates]blah, blah, blah. And I didn’t do that,” she said of avoiding the paparazzi while dating. “And there were a few moments over the last year… where I was like, ‘OK, well, I can’t have this experience anymore,’ so I want to hide… and I did that successfully, but then it’s like when I went out on the street once, it’s a photo. So I think I’ve just given up trying to control it, for better or for worse.”
The My Body author said she has “accepted” that there is only so much she can do when it comes to keeping her private life private and that if she wants to “enjoy her life, and if that means everyone has an opinion about what I I’m doing, then so be it.”
