KATSEYE’s Lara Comes Out as Queer, Calls Herself ‘Half Fruitcake’
KATSEYE’s Lara
I’m ‘Half Fruitcake’
… Opens Up on Sexuality
Published
Lara, a singer in the popular girl group KATSEYE, is coming out as queer … revealing she’s known she was “half a fruitcake” since she was a kid.
The 19-year-old singer opened up about her sexuality while interacting with fans on the Weverse platform Monday … admitting she was concerned it would negatively impact her while competing on the “Dream Academy” reality TV show that created the six-member ensemble.
“You know in Dream Academy, when it came out I was really really scared, to be honest,” Lara said. “I didn’t know if people would accept me and I really thought it might ruin my chances of getting in.”

But Lara said the reception she got from viewers during the process was overwhelmingly positive … which allowed her to be more confident in herself.
As for her preferences, Lara used humor to get her point across … saying she “really was wanting everybody” before she even turned 8 years old.
“Isn’t ‘half a fruitcake’ such a good way to explain it without saying it?” she added.
The sextet — which also includes Sophia, Manon, Daniela, Megan and Yoonchae — gained notoriety through the reality show, which was also documented on Netflix’s “Pop Star Academy: KATSEYE.”
Lara’s groupmates have yet to publicly comment on the news … but we take it they’re all supportive of her decision to open up to their fan base, the “EYEKONS.”
KATSEYE has released several hit singles, including “Debut” and “Touch” — the latter being a TikTok sensation — and is slated to perform at Lollapalooza in Chicago later this year … so 2025 has been quite eventful so far.

I’m Really In The Doghouse!!!
Published
Sydney Sweeney‘s ex-fiancé Jonathan Davino is no longer engaged to the actress and their wedding’s been called off … but at least he’s got her dog to keep him company.
Jonathan was spotted Tuesday for the first time since the news broke that the couple’s been separated since January … and he was walking her dog around the Bel Air mansion where they were supposed to live happily ever after.
Sydney’s ex was all business as he fulfilled his duties at Sydney’s property, which is getting some new construction.
Looks like Jonathan is loyal to a fault … just like Sydney’s dog.

We broke the story … Sydney and Jonathan have been separated since January and will no longer be getting hitched in May as was originally planned.
Sydney’s been living it up since the split … splurging at the Beverly Hills Hotel with her girlfriends, taking the girlies to Paris Fashion Week and Africa, plus another tropical vacation.
Jonathan, meanwhile, looks like he’s been left to look after Sydney’s construction project … and her dog.
SS and JD sparked dating rumors in 2018 and got engaged in 2022 … but the good times are over.
