As for her much speculated-about connection to #JanelleMonae, Tessa says, “It’s tricky, because Janelle and I are just really private people, and we’re both trying to navigate how you reconcile wanting to have that privacy and space, and also wanting to use your platform and influence.” Still, Tessa wasn’t hesitant to gush about Janelle. “We love each other deeply.
We’re so close, we vibrate on the same frequency. If people want to speculate about what we are, that’s okay. It doesn’t bother me.”⠀
