Her brand of white, milquetoast liberal politics is not needed or wanted in today's climate anyway.

I wouldn't count her out just yet, especially if the music is actually good. People love a comeback story, and I think she's still capable of riding that wave.

I never really thought anything of it, he just seemed surprised and like he was scrambling to be off-script. His tone doesn't sound off to me besides that. I think some of you are reading into it a little too much, much like people were reading way too into Mariah doing this.

WTF What a ******* propagandized lunatic. The bar is so low for white men in these spaces, that goes for looks and intellectual depth.

What an idiot

I like how people were ready to come in with something, but people clearly heard the song in the OP and just ended up agreeing.

I think there's been worse episodes (the elon musk one and Lisa was even more annoying), but yeah I also tend to hate the celebrity glazing episodes on The Simpsons. It just didn't work as a whole episode, would've been better if she just voiced an original character instead. It was clearly written (poorly) as a vehicle for promotion, and to top it all off it was a season finale episode.

Truly one of the last great mainstream teen vocalists we've had in the US. It's like they don't make 15 year old's this talented anymore. And her mother was right to be angry, she absolutely should not have been singing half of these songs (The Way You Do, I Can Take You There, and Like That especially) but they're still SO good. How To Touch A Girl was the wrong second single. No one should have let her record that in the first place.

I think she was just being sarcastic, but it clearly didn't translate well. She already annoyed the **** out of me with the AI thing though.

This. It's 100x better to do this or to simply create fiction loosely inspired by true stories. Ed Gein is a great example of someone who is interesting psychologically, but whose story is much more excitingly told through fictitious work (Psycho, Silence of the Lambs, Texas Chainsaw Massacre). All three of those series are huge and don't glorify the real life killer that inspired them or exploit the actual victims of said crimes, all while creating great timeless works of horror.

Chappell Roan is brave as hell for saying what she said about not endorsing a democrat during the election season. She was absolutely right about her stance. She's the only one of the girls I can really see claiming the socialist title, along with maybe Rina and Lorde.

The IP is way too huge, most people that are going to be tuning in are not chronically online and probably won't know about the backlash + won't care. I think a lot of you underestimate how aggressively your algorithms are tailored to your own online bubbles.

She doesn't have the range and she knows it. Next.

Kesha and Gaga. Anahi with Dulce Maria, Gloria Trevi, and Thalia. Belinda and Danna Paola.

I would've agreed in like, 2008, maybe even 2011 about Chris still being a successor to male pop royalty, but it's been a long time, and Chris never went beyond simply being a great dancer. His music isn't innovative, he doesn't add much to the conversation, he largely stagnated artistically, and he just didn't put in the work to continue evolving as an artist or performer. I do believe young men (especially black and brown men) can be rehabilitated and I think this case overall was very sad for both parties involved, at the time anyway. Chris had a choice to be rehabilitated in both his personal life and his public image. He was a young man who had the financial means to be able to really put in the work and become a better person and do better. There was a time for forgiveness, but that opportunity is long gone. He instead consistently chose ego and isn't deserving of a title like this, neither because of his many reported cases of physical violence and abuse of power, or for his complete lack of artistic growth.
