Embarking on her JOYRIDE World tour later this month, what better way to kick things off than gracing the cover of Complex’s February/March 2016 Issue. The thirst traps by Tinashe are in full effect as she sports a Moschino bikini while posing seductive inside a glass cup. Makes you want to take a sip, huh?

Also showing some underboob throughout her spread, the Aquarius sat down with Complex writer, Ross Scarano, at her family’s home in Southern California (where she currently resides), where they talk about what life is like at the residence, being able to relate to her fans on a person level and even being an outcast at school:

Nobody wanted to fuck with me. As far as the guys go, nobody wanted to like me or date me. They’d talk to me in secret and then at school they’d ignore me. Literally ignore me to my face. And psychologically that messes with you. It makes you feel that you must be genuinely unattractive if this person doesn’t want anyone to know that you even talk. That’s bad.

With her room being her inspiration, she says it always serves as a reminder of who she was before the fame and that failure isn’t an option.

I have no Plan B,” she says. “I’ve set this up so that my entire life is based on this, and if this fails I have nothing else. No career options. No life options. I’ve sacrificed so much for this; failure is so beyond an option. There can only be setbacks. It’ll eventually work because it can’t not work.” She laughs. “And it’s never a fully hopeless situation, because I’ll always have some support.
