This is cute. Mariah The Scientist and Young Thug turned GQ’s Couples Quiz into pure entertainment as their lighthearted chemistry and witty banter stole the spotlight. The Atlanta duo delivered laughs, love, and some surprisingly deep trivia knowledge in the June 4th episode of the hit interview series.
But Mariah The Scientist won. Just saying her name is Mariah THE SCIENTIST, ha!
Interesting concept.
Get this, the fun kicked off when Young Thug playfully trolled fans with a fake release date for his upcoming album UY SCUTI, telling viewers it would drop on “June 37.” Mariah, staying on the same comedic wavelength, responded with a sly grin, teasing that her next project would be out “same-day type s**t.”
ICYMI, Mariah has been riding high since dropping her single Burning Blue back in May, while Young Thug recently teased his musical return with “Money On Money” featuring Future. That single paid homage to the legendary Otis video by Ye and JAY-Z, setting the stage for a full album rollout that fans are still eagerly waiting on.
The couple’s comedic back-and-forth didn’t stop at music. When Thug was asked about Mariah’s guilty pleasure, he quickly answered, “S**t, me,” prompting Mariah to flash a big smile and agree without hesitation, saying, “Yeah, that’s my response.” She even gave him credit, adding, “You’re my guilty pleasure, baby.”
Ha. Like we said, cute.
But it was the muffin confession that truly had viewers laughing. Thug revealed, “I’ve woken up with muffin crumbs on my back,” referencing Mariah’s late-night obsession with blueberry muffins from Publix. When asked about the mysterious topping, Mariah dropped the name, proudly explaining, “It’s streusel.”
Streusel, though.
Mariah also aced a question about their bucket list by quickly answering “go to space” which won her a cool 5,000 points. But the scoring system? Wildly unpredictable. “You can’t gauge when you’re doing bad or when you’re doing good with him, because he’s giving out 12 points and 5,000 points,” she laughed.
When the dust settled, Mariah racked up a record-breaking 49,165 points while Young Thug finished with just 20.5.
See, smart AF.
Still, Thugger, never missing an opportunity to turn the moment into something bigger, claimed he gave Mariah all those points on purpose. “I did that just to show the world the women mindset and the man’s mindset,” he said. Then, looking at her with a grin, he added, “You gave me a f**king half a point for being right. It’s bonkers.”
