In the early stages of her career, part of Brittany Renner’s brand was speaking candidly about her sex life. Over the years, she’s been linked to names like Colin Kaepernick, Ben Simmons, Jamal Murray, and James Harden. She also shares a child with PJ Washington, who she began dating when he was 18 and the social media star was 26.
The 30-year-old is no stranger to controversy, though as she gets older, she seems to be unlearning some of her toxic traits. In recent months, rather than bragging about her conquests, the mother of one has been sharing her fresh perspective on intimacy. While it used to be a thoughtless act for her, Renner now finds it challenging to share her body with a man if they haven’t formed a bond between them.
Brittany’s Fresh Perspective on Intimacy

During a recent interview, the influencer recalled what her life was like before. “I gave men my body who didn’t deserve it, and you know, it was what it was. The thought of that now literally makes me want to puke,” she confessed. “I’m okay off of meaningless sex,” Renner added. “I mean, sex without some type of bond, or love, is just exercise at this point.”
She then joked that, because she already has a healthy relationship with her fitness routine, there’s no need for her to get an extra workout in. The comment section on @theneighborhoodtalk proves that many are loving the new leaf Renner has turned over. “I love how transparent and how honest she is,” one person praised the Mississippi native. “Love this growth and glow on her.”
A Walk Down Lover’s Lane
Last December, the entertainer publicly shaded her old roster of hookups in another interview. At the time, Renner called her list of past sexual partners “repulsive,” and admitted that her lack of self-worth is what lead her to be intimate with them. “I did not understand my value that I was born with,” she told YouTuber JustPearlyThings.
“People look at sex differently, but sex is spiritual unification. At the end of the day, I don’t care how you spin it,” the Jackson State alum additionally noted. “And people that I shared my body with — when I think about my list — it’s repulsive. Because they didn’t deserve it. But that was an outcome of me discounting my worth.” Watch Renner’s full interview with Nyla Symone below, and check back later for more pop culture news.
