Rumors have it that rapper Playboi Carti is romantically linked to model Giovanna Ramos, alias Gio. The rumors hit the internet after a now-viral tweet on X, formerly Twitter, had them in the same picture, with speculations of probably being an item.
The photo ran aggressively viral as fans shared their reactions, jokes, and assumptions. People pointed out how Gio, an openly queer artist, bucks the public narrative about Carti’s history with women. One post noted the contrast sarcastically: “hilarious but interesting.”
But Giovanna Ramos promptly cleared the air, taking to her socials with a rather cryptic, crystal-clear message:
“Cuz I mind my business n get money lol.”
And just like that, she silenced the rumors sans full confirmation or denial, though for many, the casual nature of the response seemed to open more questions; for others, it was a full denial. To this day, Carti has confirmed none of this himself.
Playboi Carti, born Jordan Terrell Carter, has seen his relationships play out often in the headlines. Of course, most notably, an engagement with Australian rapper Iggy Azalea made headlines when the two welcomed a son together in 2020. The relationship would end in due time, but since then, Carti has been linked to other big names, including Spanish singer Rosalia. The rapper has kept a pretty low-key position concerning his love life, but that hasn’t stopped the fans or the tabloids from speculating.
As for Gio, she has built her own brand as a rising fashion star at model podiums, amassed followers, and confidently came to terms with her queer identity. Her priorities appear to be not so much with personal relationships but rather with career growth and the extension of influence from podiums to enhancing her status in the fashion world. Reaction against the rumors with Carti only continues to fall in tune with this no-nonsense approach toward presenting herself before the public eye.
Even after all the online fuss, no hard evidence has come up yet that Playboi Carti and Gio are into each other. The two seem to shed attention on their respective careers, with Carti consistently doing great in music and Gio moving forward in the fashion world.
For the time being, it would appear this is a story to be watched and waited upon to see if there is any merit or meat to this bone or if it’s just another blip in the ever-turning rumor mill of social media.
