Nelly Furtado is an open book in her music, often sharing the trials and tribulations that love and relationships bring. During the I’m Like a Bird singer’s recent appearance on the Call Her Daddy podcast, the Canadian pop star spoke about her exes, music, body positivity, and her decades-long career. When Nelly and podcast host Alex Cooper were on the topic of romance, the songstress admitted who she’d be interested in dating.
She also divulged that the “type” of man she likes is always evolving. “It’s like a new beginning for me,” Nelly shared on the podcast . Call Her Daddy fans caught 'weird vibes' between Hailey Bieber and Alex Cooper in throwback episode Alex Cooper shades a 'male actor' who 'gave nothing' during Call Her Daddy interview “It’s a very fun time in my life because I didn’t really get to be single in my 20s.
I was pretty locked down in relationships,” she added. Nelly was in a relationship with composer Jasper Gahunia while she was in her mid-20s, which was in the early 2000s. In 2003, she and Jasper welcomed their daughter Nevis in September 2003.
The two later broke up in 2005. The Promiscuous singer married engineer Demacio Castellon a few years later, but they separated in 2016. In recent years Nelly welcomed children with rapper and ex Jerry, formerly known as Hodge.
“Only recently, in the last few years, I’ve become single again. It’s just so fun dating — I love it. .
.. Now, my type is like, come correct,” Nelly noted, explaining she likes a man who radiates confidence and isn’t afraid to ask her out on a date.
“You have to enjoy being single, authentically. ..
. If you’re looking for a relationship for real, then be authentic about that,” she added. “But if that’s not what you’re looking for, ask yourself, ‘What do you want?’ If you want to just have fun and see what’s out there, that’s fine too.
” “You know what so funny? I feel the most confident now. One hundred per cent, it’s now,” Nelly told Alex. I had the 40s glow-up.
I was just like, ‘Wow, I feel like me.’” Nelly touched on her rise to fame in her early 20s, commenting on how much the beauty standards differed in the early aughts. At the beginning of her career, she noted her whole life was a bit of a “whirlwind” as it was shocking to see her body edited during photoshoots.
It also stunned her how she came across on TV for the first time. Earlier this year, Nelly told People that magazines would “lighten her skin” and “take her hips down” whenever they edited her photos in the early-2000s..
