Ayra Starr, the Nigerian music sensation, has opened up about her high standards for dating and relationships. In an interview with Coco Jones for *Rolling Stone*, the “Rush” star shared how her journey in the music industry has raised her expectations, leaving little room for compromise in her personal life.
Reflecting on her pre-fame life, Ayra Starr admitted she’s grateful not to have dated seriously before launching her music career, now setting her bar for relationships exceedingly high.
“I’m so happy I wasn’t really dating before I started music. I didn’t really know what I was missing,” she said. “Now that I waited this long to date people, I have very high standards. If it’s gonna be hard to meet it, it’s gonna be bye-bye.”
When asked if she might consider a relationship within the industry, Starr was quick to dismiss the idea—even in a hypothetical scenario. “In the dream world, it wouldn’t be somebody that is in the industry,” she mused. “Probably just like a billionaire. On a yacht. In Dubai. In a thong.”
