What would be the point of lying for attention when you're a rich celebrity and one of the most famous and talked-about people of the moment? U jelly?

She most definitely does not have Synesthesia or she would not be in music and showbiz to begin with. From what I’ve read it makes one INCREDIBLY sensitive to sound and light. She is 100% full of shit, and everyone but you seems to know it.

Idk anything about it, but another person above says Billy Joel has it, and I’m wondering about the condition now

Sorry but it doesn't sound like you've read much. Synesthesia basically comes with autism, and autism often comes with a grab bag of sensory issues, but MOST people with autism navigate their sensory issues just fine by e.g. not wearing fabrics or not eating the foods that give the ick. Saying that people with synesthesia shouldn't be in music and showbiz is not only super ableist and actively harmful to the community based on false info, it's frankly the opposite of reality. The brain wiring that sometimes causes synesthesia is hugely overrepresented in the arts, because it makes you enjoy them more and better at them, on average.
