Fans are also convinced that Mr. Fantasy is not, in fact, Mr. Fantasy, and rather the Riverdale actor KJ Apa in disguise — though Mr. Fantasy has vehemently denied knowing who Apa is or even that he's watched Riverdale.Speaking with co-hosts Taylor and Tay Lautner, Mr. Fantasy gave an in-depth interview, touching on everything from his love for conservationist Robert Irwin to how he finds confidence to his sex and dating life.

Mr. Fantasy opened up in-depth for the first time about his love life, including his sex life, telling the Lautners that he was "celibate.""I don't masturbate," the elusive musician said. "Haven't masturbated in quite a long time. And that's something that I have chosen to do just because I like how it makes me feel. Makes me feel like I'm rocking it, man."
Taylor expressed his surprise at the declaration, telling Mr. Fantasy that he was "kind of surprised" to hear that, given how much "humping and stuff" he included in his videos.
"Where does the humping come from?" Mr. Fantasy pondered. "It's a primal instinct, isn't it? Do you know what I mean? It comes very, very naturally to me."
