Legions of Troye Sivan fans are allegedly jolly cross with the musician after photos surfaced featuring the star throwing flowers — gifted to him by a fan! — into the trash.
Originally tweeted by Pop Crave, the photos clearly show Sivan walking with the flowers — gifted to him by a fan! — and, again, throwing them into the trash.

Now, these pictures have gone viral, and everyone’s weighing in on Troye and the goddamn fan-issued flowers that he threw into the trash. The trash!
How about we take this to the next level?

In fact, some fans are calling the artist “over”. Why? Because he’s apparently the type of guy who would take flowers — gifted to him, again, by a fan! — and throw them right into the trash.
Other fans noticed that Troye appears to be wearing different outfits in the photos.
They’re suggesting he threw the flowers into the trash after enjoying them for an indeterminate amount of time, discarding them only after they wilted and become too needy.

Others argued he was on his way to the airport, and probably wouldn’t be able to take his emotional-support flowers onto the plane. His solution? Throw them into the trash.
We don’t know where we stand on this because we’re incapable of normal emotions, but we are probably very sad about it.
Here is the photo series again, so the whole thing can sink in for you:

I’d so the same thing though right in front of the stalker after I rolled my eyes.

“See you soon love” yeah that boy is a stalker. He thought he’d give the flowers and Troye would look into his eyes and instantly fall in love. I’d throw those bad mojo flowers away quick. Probably some tracking or listening device in em..lol

To be clear “Pop Crave” is a twitter account with a gmail link and delusions of grandeur that manufactured the controversy because whoever runs it had a boner for Sivan and got their feelings hurt at some point.

Cut flowers have always been a creepy gift to begin with. A fragile beautiful thriving life form sliced so it withers quickly away. How about a nice potted plant that lives on.

Totally agree – I hate cut flowers for the same reason.

Years ago I tossed 2 dozen roses onto the stage of Radio City Music Hall as Tina Turner came out for her encore. [Security wouldn’t let me close enough to be able to hand them over.]
She picked them up and did the first song dancing with them. Of course, Ms. Turner’s dancing was rather enthusiastic, so she was soon trailing rose petals as she strutted across the stage and then put the bedraggled stems on the piano. To me, it was a magical effect. I could imagine Tina Turner trailing rose petals wherever she went.
Now, what were we talking about? I just had a moment.

Maybe he was on his way someplace where it would have been inconvenient to be holding a bouquet. Really, this is much ado about nothing!

The article title says it all: this. Is. Dumb.

How silly. He probably loved the gesture which is the most important part and then either didn’t want to take them with him or couldn’t. This whole thing is quite ridiculous. Some over sensitive people may have jumped to some asinine conclusions.

1. Wearing different clothes so probably different days.
2. I assume he travels a lot touring and I don’t think (I may be wrong only this tbh) you can take cut flowers or similar through airport security.
3. If he is touring/in a different city then he likely doesn’t have a large enough bin in the hotel to throw the flowers away.
4. The flowers going in the bin looked wilted, what did he expect? Troye to hold onto them forever.
Either outrage for no discernable reason or fanboy who probably wants to wear Troyes skin as a coat.

Artist get more than just flowers before during and after..I don’t give gifts unless they are personal friends of mine .all those drawings..teddy bears…balloons…flowers etc.are left behind while he flies to next city.some stuffed animals are brought to.hospitals for children..don’t forget the thousands of items they receive in the mail too.it’s too much

Maybe he’s allergic.

Talented guy, but partially ruined by the fake blonde hair, the painted girly nails, and the nose ring. His dad should clean him up and make him normal.
ChrisK
Oh knows. Next he’ll be girating his hips and looking sexy. It will be the end of civilization. The horror.
Go back to your cave.

When did “gifted” replace “given?”
He was given the flowers by a fan. What is wrong with that?
Billysees
He should have ‘gently’ placed them somewhere nearby like on a table or chair or some other appropriate surface and then walk away as if he might return to pick them up. Gee, the demands of fame can become really awkward.
Lvng1Tor humorously put it so well — Probably some tracking or listening device in em..lol

Watched Blazing Saddles last nite where Harvey Korman (as Hedley,Lamarr) gives Madeline Kahn (Lili von Schtupp) daisies and she throws them over her shoulder and says “how ordinary”. Had me lmao.

Never heard of this Troye dude until now. Queerty is making me so much smarter and more in touch with American pop culture. Thanks QuEeRtY
