Paloma Faith has stunned fans by revealing she was once caught in an explicit sex act in the street.
The icon, 43, took to TikTok to promote her new podcast Mad, Sad, and Bad.
In honour of the podcast’s theme, she explained the ‘baddest’ thing she’s ever done.
Reminiscing back to when she was 21, the singer revealed a truly shocking act she did in the middle of the street in Seville.
She said: ‘When I was 21 I allowed someone to ***** in the street in Seville. And an old lady walked past and she looked at us.’
She continued: ‘I made eye contact with her and she just went (shakes her head in disgust).’
Fans couldn’t believe the X-rated admission, with many cheering on Paloma’s vulnerability. One user wrote: ‘lol I love your “Bad” go girl.’
Another joked: ‘Fancy a day out to Seville 😏’
Someone else said: ‘The Sevillian old lady was well-jell 😁’
The star also revealed her ‘saddest’ moment was when she ‘broke up with my kid’s dad and wrote a whole album about it called The Glorification of Sadness.’
Paloma and French artist Leyman Lahcinewere together for nine years before they announced their split in 2022. While the couple never publicly revealed their children’s names, they welcomed their daughter in 2016 and then a second daughter via IVF in 2021.
She also shared her ‘maddest’ time with fans in the TikTok, hilariously recalling how when the public transport system in London first released the Oyster card, she attempted to make her own.
‘I spent three hours making a paper mache oyster shell so that I could take myself to the bus,’ she said.
‘And when the bus doors opened I tapped it on the reader and the driver went, “What are you doing?” And I was like, “It’s an Oyster!”’
She continued: ‘He was like, “I’m not moving this bus until you’ve paid.”
‘That is a bit mad because it wasn’t for anybody’s kind of fun, it was just for my own amusement.’
Paloma recently chatted to Metro and revealed what her eight-year-old really thinks about her fame.
‘Sometimes my eldest daughter gets a bit embarrassed of me because she thinks that I attract too much attention, she’s quite insular,’ she revealed.
The singer also opened up about finding out she has autism, a revelation that didn’t stop her from having a massive year in 2024.
She performed on the Glastonbury Pyramid Stage and released her sixth studio album, The Glorification of Sadness.
It reached number two on the album charts, which she confessed she doesn’t really ‘follow’ anymore.New episodes of Paloma’s Mad, Sad and Bad podcast are released on Tuesdays.
