Dating apps have been a ubiquitous part of culture and relationships for the last decade as internet dating has become more commonplace.

We're all familiar with the likes of Tinder, Bumble and Hinge but there are more specialized apps out there. One so-called celebrity dating app, Raya, is apparently widely used these days.

Raya, is a private, membership-based dating app said to be used by high-profile people and celebrities.

The app made headlines this week when a TikTok user went viral after sharing a video Ben Affleck apparently sent her after they matched on a dating app.

To join Raya, users must be referred by an existing member. Their application is then voted on by a membership committee and it is famously difficult to be accepted.

'Our focus at Raya is to provide members with access to exciting people and opportunities around the world. We are a private community where people come to connect for dating, networking, and friendship,' the app's description reads on the Apple App Store.

A quasi-minimalist Raya website exists for non-users to browse. 'We believe in individuality, creativity and sharing stories,' it reads.

Upon applying to join, prospective members are asked to share who they would like to invite to an intimate dinner party and why. They are also asked information about their work and to state what common bond they share with other users—like being in the entertainment industry for example.

Nivine Jay, an actress and model, shared the clip of a man, who looks and sounds like Affleck, to TikTok on Sunday before it made its way to Twitter where it has exploded.

'Thinking of the time I matched with Ben Affleck on Raya and thought it was fake so I unmatched him and he sent me a video on Instagram,' she wrote over the clip.

The video, the authenticity of which has not been independently verified by Newsweek, then purports to show the 48-year-old Batman actor asking Jay: 'Nivine, why did you unmatch me? It's me.'

Page Six reports that Affleck has been using it since 2019.

Affleck mentioned using Raya in 2019, when he posted to Instagram 'HA, you got me. I'm dating,' before opening up about a cause he cared about.

Some notable celebrities who reportedly use or who have used Raya include Cara Delevingne, Ruby Rose, Sharon Stone, Moby, John Cusack, Patrick Schwarzenegger, Teri Hatcher, Elijah Wood and Zach Braff.

This list was compiled in 2018 by Nylon magazine, which had a peek inside the app.

Apart from movie stars and supermodels, other people who are said to use Raya include fashion designers, YouTubers, DJs, celebrity chefs and professional athletes.

Chilling Adventures of Sabrina star Kiernan Shipka revealed she was a big fan of Raya, telling Stylist in 2019: 'Raya for life. Love it. God bless Raya.'

Drew Barrymore once compared Raya to 'looking through an Us Weekly' during a September 2020 appearance on Watch What Happens Live With Andy Cohen.

'I did terribly too. I got stood up, and I didn't match with anyone. And my friends gave me this sort of bloated sense of false confidence. They were like, 'You should try it. You will do great.' It was a car wreck,' she shared.

Raya is like the hipster, DJ-infested version of Fight Club. The first rule of Raya: You do not talk about Raya. The second rule of Raya: You do not talk about Raya, so much so that the app punishes you for even taking screen grabs. In fact, we're being a little bit naughty by just writing about it. The word has only leaked here and there, but as you read this, the likelihood is quite high that anyone associated with NYLON who has a Raya account is probably getting flayed by folks in black trench coats.

Do not worry: The so-called Tinder for Illuminati has built its cache by flying under the radar. Well, not entirely radar-less, as there are plenty of handsome model types and TV show stars who must've gotten their invites from somewhere, and we have a hard time thinking there is some sort of famous person Listserv that exists. (Is there? Is there a famous person Listserv?)

Here's what we know: The app has been around for over a year—and though it bills itself as a connector for 'creative types,' it mostly has very beautiful folks with 5,000-plus Instagram followers. And you want to see its allure? Watch this: It's very, very hard to get on. (Now, how badly do you want to get on it? See? Exclusivity works.)

So why would the super famous need a dating app to meet new people? Who knows, celebrities are mysterious creatures, like cats... even famous cats. (Note: No famous cats, thus far, on Raya.)

Now, there are regular citizens on Raya, so there is hope for all of us. However, the approval process is not exactly clear-cut. From what we can glean, you need to meet at least four out of the five following criteria in order to be accepted:

1. Have a cool and/or creative occupation
2. Have a significant Instagram following
3. Have other friends on Raya who can recommend you
4. Be hot
5. Maybe be magical?

Fortunately, a few of us have been blessed to have encountered some of these denizens of Raya (or, hey, maybe even got accepted to Raya ourselves, though rule number one prevents us from actually admitting that), and after being slightly starstruck by the company, we started compiling a list of famous people that popped up. Which means, they are eligible and want to date you, me, each other, or maybe a famous cat.

While we have heard that these people have browsed Raya at one point over the past few months, they might not be there at this very moment. Or maybe we hallucinated them entirely. Just kidding—we definitely confirmed their presence in one way or another, but with the app's dedicated opacity, their mere presence may have vanished into a vapor made of lost dreams, smoke machines, and adorable photos of pit bulls. You never know when a celeb might find what they're looking for and delete their account, though. (Notable fact: These profiles were connected to legitimate celebrity social media accounts, so we're assuming they're the real deal.)

See the famous faces—looking for love just like the rest of us—we've seen while browsing Raya after the break, so you know who you might encounter should you get in.
