Speaker 3:
[00:12] Welcome back to another episode of Taylor Watch. I know this episode is looking a little different because I am missing my lovely co-host, my bestie, Kelly Keegs. Ooh, guys, I'm nervous, so just bear with me because this is my first ever solo pod, first ever time even doing anything like this. So not sure how it's going to go. I can talk for hours and hours on end. So if I start to lose track of what I'm talking about, please again, bear with me. Like I said, you may be noticing that it's just me, Kelly Keegs is not here because she showed up in Las Vegas last night. I was shocked, shook to my core and obviously we will get into all the Taylor stuff. We have some good Taylor things to talk about, not too much in the world of Taylor, but we got some shade being thrown, some response to some shade. Taylor and Travis were out and about in New York this weekend, so we'll recap all of that obviously. But first, we need to talk about Kelly, we need to talk about Spring Break House. So I woke up this morning very adamant that Kelly was not going to be a part of Las Vegas Spring Break House. I was told that she was not gonna be a part of it by Kelly Keegs herself until I woke up this morning and saw that they were out in Vegas. Her and Tommy showed up, they were the two people being flown in, and she had to keep it super tight-lipped. Totally get that, she didn't want to get in trouble, she didn't want to make any mistakes before even going on the show, so I understand. So I went to bed last night at like midnight, maybe like 11.30, I kind of went to bed early. And you know, there's a three hour time difference. So when I woke up, I was shook, and I was like, wait, what are we gonna do about Taylor Watch? Obviously, it's not that big of a deal. I can carry the burden while Kelly is out carrying her own burden, honestly, I don't know. I don't know what I would prefer more, having to solo pod or having to have all of my vulnerabilities and moments shown on Twitter, Instagram, and TikTok across all platforms. Spring Break House has been interesting. I feel like if you guys aren't following, then I'm sorry. But now that Kelly is a part of it, you guys have to follow. Show Kelly some support, show her some love, because it's a tough crowd out there, and she's going to need all the Taylor Watch fans to be behind her, to stand ten toes down for her. So last night, she showed up in a beautiful red dress. She was sparkling, she was shining, and I was shook. I didn't really see what went down during the night because I was asleep. I tried to catch up, but it didn't really seem like anything too crazy was happening. It seemed like Tommy and Nicky were flirting it up. Smelly was stage diving, all of the things that go on in a normal Vegas night. Gronk was there, Camille Kostik was there. And then I woke up this morning, and then the recap show happened. So we're watching the recap show, realizing that some people are talking shit, Annika's talking shit about Kelly behind her back, saying that if Kelly was the new addition, she should have had a bigger night, performed more, like she was kind of a dead. So that got back to Kelly, so they hashed that out on the recap show. But I don't think it was as malicious as Annika intended it to be, or I don't think Annika intended it to be that malicious, or sound malicious at all. Because, you know, the first night that they all went out, it's not like anyone was really performing their ass off, so I don't really know the grounds that anyone has to stand on to say that about Kelly. But I think the stress gets to you, you know. Talking shit is hard because it's eventually gonna get back to whoever said it, especially at Barstool. So you gotta be careful with your words, and then no one wants to fess up that they said it, except that's when my respect for Annika actually came in. Because Annika on the recap show was like, actually, yeah, I would just wanna confess that I did say that about Kelly. I didn't mean it in the way that it came off. So Annika's Mark Safe, we still love her down. Who else was talking shit? Oh, someone said that Smelly, who's movie's bestie, Kelly, she's also named Kelly, so I'm just gonna call her Smelly. Someone said that Smelly was insufferable, and that no one wanted to be around her, or that she was annoying or something like that. No one confessed or fessed up that it was them that said that, but I feel like you gotta start talking shit. Or at least, if you're gonna talk shit, stand ten toes down on that shit you're talking, because this is reality TV, and the producers are gonna be talking, they're gonna be spreading the word. If someone says something, the producers are going to find a way to make sure that that gets out, so that there's drama stirred. So I don't know if the cast is really realizing that when it comes to reality TV, a lot of it is behind the scenes producer stuff, making sure that everybody is like having a story line, everybody has drama, making sure that like people know that people are talking shit, things of that nature. And I don't think a lot of the cast realizes how much work goes in behind the scenes like that. Tommy got brought in, he's chatting up with ladies, Nicky Smokes is pissed because people are mad at him and Annika or are flirting it up and things of that nature. And listen, I've been entertained. I feel like it's been fairly entertaining. Watching Rico and Deutsch go home was painful. I felt really bad for them. I do feel like it's a sticky situation when you're sending a older married man into a spring break house with a bunch of younger people. There's lines that you don't want to cross, and you can be as fun as you want and do what you can, but at the end of the day, it's not the storyline that they're looking for when you're a married man. So Rico had to get sent home, and then I think Deutsch, I think he was just shy. I think he's not exactly this big drama party guy. I know he likes to drink, and he can drink a lot, but I don't think it was the right environment for him. So I wasn't surprised to see that he got sent home. I kind of was surprised to see Rico Bosco get sent home just because of the drama that he can bring in terms of his anger management. But I think that everyone's doing a great job so far. Everyone's holding their own, and listen, I've been neck deep in this spring break stuff. I tell myself that I'm not gonna follow it too much because then I get too invested, but I just can't help myself, and now I'm super invested, and now that Kelly's on it, obviously I'm going to be watching everything. So let's all just make sure that Kelly is getting some support. I hope that she crushes it. I know she's going to crush it. I hope she shines. She's a star. She deserves to be a star. And we'll have to see how it goes. This is a really cut throat type of thing. You can get sent home at any moment. I believe there's some influencers coming on today from outside of Barstool. We still have to see if Brianna Chicken Fry shows up. So there's still a lot to follow along with. And the place that they're staying at is absolutely insane. Oh, also Mubi Maddie got sent home today. So I feel bad for her. Again, she has a boyfriend. She's so sweet. She's so nice. She's almost too nice for this show. And I think when you have a boyfriend, it withholds you from really getting out there and doing what needs to be done in terms of drama. So yeah, I honestly was surprised just because Mubi, I feel like, is untouchable in a way, just because she's so high up in the company. So I was surprised to see her go home, but I think it's all for the best. I hope Smelly does okay and thrives on her own. I would be distraught if my bestie got sent home and I had to stay, but I'm sure Smelly will do great. She's been killing it, and I have to sneeze. And yeah, I just think that there's still a lot of drama to come, and I will be watching. I will be watching. I'll be keeping an eye on her for Selena for sure, for Kelly, and oh also, if you guys know, Tate, the man, the he who shall not be named, has joined the production side. He's like kind of production, kind of camera front-facing, because now he's doing this thing called Sip by the Strip. I almost said T by the C, but that's a new version of T by the C that Dave has been doing. But this is Sip on the Strip. And he dropped a bomb this morning. He was the one that revealed the talking shit about Smelly, the talking shit about Kelly, that the producers are talking, that's saying that the content's been hard to work with, the content people are saying the producers have been hard to work with. So Tate really came in and stirred the pot this morning. So I kind of have to respect him for that. I'm very interested to see how that dynamic with him and Kelly will work out. Because I'm not going to lie, listen, I did the bowling stream with Tate. I have nothing, like I don't hold any personal grudge against him. I don't particularly like him because of what he did to Kelly. But I'm kind of like middle ground with Tate, because he was really nice to me when we did the stream. You know, he allowed me to be a part of the stream, things of that nature. But of course, I'm always going to stand ten toes down for Kelly. And if anything goes down between them that I don't like, I will be fully supporting Kelly. Always, I just kind of like that Tate is there to serve the pot, there to bring some tea, because there wasn't really any drama before. So that's that on Spring Break House. Obviously, we're going to try to have Kelly on on Thursday's episode. Hopefully she can find some time to zoom in. We can recap how she's feeling. She can talk about it some more, because obviously she's there. So she has boots on the ground. She knows what's going on. And then we can deep dive into that a little bit more. And then hopefully by then, we'll have some more drama to talk about. But that's Spring Break House. You guys can follow that on Twitter, Instagram, TikTok, whatever it is. I think it's literally on all platforms, but I highly suggest keeping an eye out for that. A quick commercial break for our besties, Baked by Melissa. I talked about this at Nozium.

Oh, the red velvet. The red velvet is so good.

Speaker 2:
[12:29] Oh, and the chocolate chip cookie.

So let's jump into some topics, some Taylor topics today. First off, Taylor and Travis were out and about in New York. Um, this weekend, we didn't see any pics of them, unfortunately, but they were covering themselves with some umbrellas. And I believe they were going to Casa Triperiani. That's another hotspot in New York. I feel like they go there, they go there a lot. It was, um, I'm not sure what night of the weekend it was, but they were doing some fun stuff. Now, follow me here because I'm trying to connect the dots a little bit. And I'm not sure that this all took place on the same day, but I'm pretty sure it did. So while Taylor and Travis were doing that, Ashley Avignon, who we know, Taylor's bestie, was out and about with Kindred Lubeck. Kindred Lubeck was the one who made Taylor's ring, Taylor's engagement ring with Travis. So Ashley posted a story with Kindred Lubeck so people think that maybe that they were all hanging out, doing something together, not exactly sure. And then it came out that Taylor tipped this musician, Jackson Porter, or sorry, Jackson Potter, and his whole band $200 each, which was pretty cool. Now I did not know anything about this guy, Jackson Potter. I believe he's just like a local NYC musician, because every time I saw it on Twitter, they would just describe him as an NYC based musician. It says, Jackson Potter, an NYC based musician shares via Insta that Taylor Swift tipped him and his band $200 each last night. And then he posted on his story, the money, which is kind of crazy. He posted like a picture of the money and said, Taylor Swift was at my gig last night and tipped the band $200 each. And then he posted a poll that said, should I keep the money as a good luck charm or use it to replace the AirPods I lost at the gig? So this is just another example of Taylor being Taylor, Taylor being great, being generous, sharing the wealth, supporting artists, supporting musicians, whatever it is. Now, I guess this is kind of a good question that Jackson Potter poses. If Taylor tipped you $200, would you just keep that money and frame it or would you use it? And I think I would use it. I mean, at the end of the day, 200 bucks is 200 bucks. That is good money that you can use towards something that's helpful. Oh, he said, use it to replace the air pods I lost at the gig. So I would say, use it to buy the air pods, and then you could always say that Taylor Swift bought me these air pods. You're like, oh my God, like, love your air pod. I don't know if anyone's ever going to say love your air pods. But like, you know, that's a fun fact that you could bring out at any moment. It's like, oh, like, let me grab my air pods. Oh, yeah, the air pods that Taylor Swift bought me, you know? You know, these old things. So that could be something that you could really add to your lore and a great story. I definitely think I would spend the money just because I have a money spending problem. So no matter who gives me 200 bucks, I'm spending it, especially if it's Taylor. Then I could be like, oh, Taylor Swift bought me this top. Taylor Swift bought me these shoes, whatever I used to spend the money on. Taylor Swift technically bought you that. So that's something cool that you can share. So it seems like they had a fun night out. It doesn't say where they were, what they were doing, anything of that nature. And honestly, I don't really want to get too into the nitty gritty of the details, because I feel like that's when it starts to get weird. If it's not readily available information, then I just, I'm not going to go deep diving into what they were doing, where they're at. But it does seem like things are starting to get into the works a little bit, maybe, with wedding events. I can't decide if I think the wedding is coming up soon, but if I don't, I feel like we've talked about this at Nauseam, so I won't go on too long about it. But once Kindred starts getting involved, it's like, okay, something's happening here. Were they trying on the actual wedding rings? I don't know what those are called, because it's like the engagement ring and then what, your wedding band, should I say? Were they trying on wedding bands? I don't know. What were they doing? Were they just chatting it up? Were they just drawing out the blueprints? You never know. So Ashley seems to definitely be involved a lot with whatever's going on in terms of Taylor's bridal world, bridal era. Because like we said last week, Ashley did say that they were coming to the end of bridal week. So I think that maybe her and Ashley were bopping around, trying on different dresses, having some private showings, maybe meeting with Kindred to finalize some things, having a fun night out, whatever it is. I'm glad that they're all having fun in New York. I'm glad that things are moving, things are happening. I do still stand ten toes out when I say I don't think that the wedding's going to be happening in July in New York. Maybe it's gonna be happening in July somewhere else, but I just, I don't know what it is. Maybe it's my parasocial relationship with Taylor that's telling me that there's no way, but I don't know. I mean, she does love New York. It's July 4th weekend, so the city's not as crazy crowded as it usually is in the summer, but I really guess we'll just have to see. I don't know. Guys, I'm so nervous. I hope that this is going well, and I'm gonna be bringing this up every five seconds, but just excuse my pauses and stuff, because I'm trying to think as I go, and it's so hard to think about what I'm saying and what I want to say while talking at the same time. It's so nice to usually have a buffer, but we trudge on, we trudge along to some other topics about Taylor. Now, I hate when this stuff happens, because I just don't like to get angry on Taylor's behalf, but sometimes I have to get angry on Taylor's behalf. So this weekend, or I think it was maybe, let me see when this went down, because I think it was either Thursday or Friday when Finn Wolfhard, three days ago, so what, today's Monday, so yeah, this was Friday, maybe Thursday night, Finn Wolfhard is performing. I don't know where, I guess he's in a band. I don't know if he's a solo artist or if he's in a band, whatever. And he starts singing a song, and the song's lyrics are like the exact transcript of Kanye West interrupting Taylor Swift at the VMAs, the iconic, not iconic, the infamous moment that happened at the VMAs. Now, he's singing, and I'll read you guys the lyrics because it's just so strange. The song is an unreleased song, apparently. And the lyrics start, feeling ripped off, feeling struck by you. Woo, it still drags on. Am I terrible? You've got the money, honey. I've got the time. You're out dancing. Do you have the time? We'll go out next week. Never mind. Then it's like, you got a Bengal cat? Did she cost a lot? You got the money, honey? Should be a crime. I wish I could grab my friends and put them in a net, fill my house with them. And so the story ends. I don't know. These lyrics make literal to no sense to me. And then it ends with this. So the story ends. Do you want to live at home? Thank you so much. I've always dreamed about what it would be like to maybe win, but I never actually thought it would happen. I sing country music. So thank you so much for giving me a chance to win a VMA award. Yo, Taylor, I'm really happy for you. I'll let you finish. Beyonce had one of the best videos of all time, of all time, one of the best videos of all time. So he's singing that, like, yo, Taylor! First off, if you guys watch this video, he sounds awful. The guy cannot sing for shit. So it's like, not only is it offensive to our eyes for having to see this, but it's offensive to our ears for having to hear him say this and then be shady. And I guess I just don't really understand, like, what is the point of doing that? It just seems like he was maybe trying to be funny or trying to be witty or something of that nature. And I just don't get the point of bringing up a moment like that and singing about it and, like, trying to do it in a funny way. I just, I'll, I don't know. Someone tweeted and said, everyone's having discourse about if this song is misogynistic or not, which is fair. But can we talk about the real elephant in the room, which is that he fucking sucks? Yeah, I mean, the guy can't sing for shit. So I just don't really understand, like, why he is singing about an event that happened when, like, was he even born for that yet? Like, I don't know how old he is, but he's really young. So, like, do you even remember that moment? I highly doubt it. I just feel like, it's just so weird. Like, why do people always have to bring in Taylor in moments where she is not, she doesn't matter? Like, it's not appropriate. Like, people are so obsessed with her that they know that if they do something controversial with Taylor's name in it, that they'll get press and clicks and whatever. So obviously Finn Wolfhard's like, yeah, I'm going to add this moment into my song because like it's a controversial moment. But it's like, why are we taking advantage of a moment like this? When it happened to like a young girl with a very established person in the industry, Kanye West, who embarrassed her publicly, one of the most, probably one of the most embarrassing moments of somebody's life, you have this huge career moment where you win a VMA for a video of the year, and someone comes up and publicly embarrasses you, and then you have Finn Wolfhard drudging it up and singing about it. Like it's some joke. I just feel like it's just really unbelievably strange behavior from from Finn Wolfhard. I don't understand the point. I don't understand the song. The song sucks. He's not a good singer. So it's like, maybe let's stick to acting. I just really think he was trying to be provocative. He was trying to be controversial. He's trying to be like a rocker. Like, like, you know how like rockers are like, like, fuck the system. Like, maybe he was like trying to be like that. But I just feel like that that is the stupidest shit I've ever seen or heard in my life. I don't know. I just feel like how many times are we going to talk about somebody bringing up Taylor Swift in a negative way for clicks? It's just exhausting. Like, it truly is exhausting. And then, you know, when the Swifties stick up for Taylor, it's always this big hullabaloo about like, oh, the Swifties are toxic. The Swifties are this. It's like, okay, well, don't shade Taylor in the first place. And this stems off of Josh Hutcherson. I think if you guys remember, we talked about this. Josh Hutcherson was being shady in some interview, talking about how he's like, not a Taylor Swift fan. He like said something along the lines of like, I don't listen to any Taylor Swift songs. Let me try to find, like, of course I have the quote of what he said, but I don't have the quote of what he said in the beginning. Like, I have the quote of what he said recently. Okay, let's see. Josh Hutcherson clarifies his comments about not being a Taylor Swift fan. If you guys remember, we, like, kind of talked about this because we were like, wait, we love Josh Hutcherson. We love The Hunger Games, so why is he being shady? So he was doing a camera-roll roulette during an interview with ID Magazine in December. From one of the prompts, Josh pulled up a photo of him and his mom at the Errors Tour. When Jordan, who is Jordan Fisher, Jordan asked if Josh was a Swiftie, he replied, very much not. No shade, all respect, but definitely not. What do you mean, very much not? You were at the fucking Errors Tour, so clearly you have to be somewhat of a Swiftie. He's got up the wazoo with beads, with friendship bracelets, but he can't, he's definitely not a Swiftie. No, don't group me with those people. Okay, very weird. And we talked about that. When that all went down, I thought it was shady, I thought it was weird. And I didn't want to push any further, because again, Hunger Games, PETA, like, don't make me Team Gale. Like, I don't want to fucking be Team Gale. I want to stay Team PETA, but here we go again. I don't know if we're gonna be Team PETA anymore. So, he did an interview with GQ, and he said, I got some heat because I did a photo shoot with Jordan. And Jordan asked me something about being a Taylor Swift fan. And I was like, oh no, I'm definitely not a Swiftie. All of a sudden, it garnered this. Fuck him, he's a monster, destroy him. He's short. He hates her because he's short. I'm just like, whoa, I think she's great. Her music is not my kind of music. As for the Swift backlash, his innocuous comment received, Josh added, that's why I don't want to be online. I don't need that energy. And this is what I mean, if you're gonna be shady, stand, how many times have I said stand 10 times down on this episode? Like, back up your shade. I'm so sick of these people throwing out shade left and right, and then when they get confronted on their shade, oh no, I didn't mean it like that, the Swifties are crazy. You're the one that said it. You said it. You're just mad because people are saying that you're short. I think that's why obviously he was so pressed, because clearly them calling him short, it really struck a chord, should I say. Fuck him. He's a monster. Destroy him. He's short. He just hates her because she's short, which is just hilarious. So to be like, oh, that's why I don't want to be online. I don't want my energy going towards that. You put your energy there. You're the one that had to let everybody know that even though you took your mom to the aerosaur, you're taking pictures with fans, getting all these friendship bracelets, going to the show, showing that you're a fan of Taylor Swift. Oh no, but I'm very much not a Swiftie. Definitely not a Swiftie. Okay, that doesn't make any sense to me. It's like, you can't have your cake and eat it too, Josh. You gotta just be like, yeah, I said that. I'm not a Swiftie, but I went to the concert. I'm a fan. Okay, that makes more sense. Or maybe be like, I didn't think I liked her music enough to be called a Swiftie, or I didn't know enough songs to be called a Swiftie, whatever. Clearly, you like her music if you're going to the Aerosaur. I truly just don't understand that. So for him to blame it on the internet makes no sense to me because it's like, you're the one that said it. Oh, sorry, also it was not Jordan Fisher, it was Jordan Firstman, who, he's shady too, wasn't he? Didn't he do something shady? I don't remember what he did exactly, but I remember he had some shade about something. Maybe it was something with Charlie XCX. Oh, you know, he was the one that shaded, he did rivalry because he said that like the heated rivalry, the sex and heated rivalry wasn't realistic. And then my king, I forget his name, but he's the one. My God, I can't remember his name. What the F is his name? It's like French. And I keep thinking Roger Jean Page, but I know that's on him. It's heated, rivalry, cast. It's Francois Arnaud. Francois responded and was like, maybe the sex you're having isn't realistic, but like it is to me, whatever. So there's some shady back and forth. They figured it out. So Jordan Firstman's Mark Safe, Josh Hutcherson. What is the T? What's the drama? Like, why are you so pressed when it's you saying those words? No one put words in your mouth. You're the one that said it. So I don't really understand that. It's weird because I feel like people are scared to almost. It's either like they bring up Taylor in a positive way, or they bring up Taylor in a negative way, and then like immediately blame it on the internet when people... My Twitter's not working. Oh, here we go. This is what I wanted to read, this tweet. Someone said, see, I literally have no issue with Josh, but I hate when people can't stand on your words. He literally said, and I quote, a little bit of shade. If you want to be shady, fine, be shady. Oh, right, he did say no shade, but a little bit of shade. That's what he said. If you want to be shady, fine, be shady, but then don't cry victim afterwards. It's so pathetic. Sorry. Exactly. So shout out to this person, Val is trying because she took the words right out of my mouth. It's like just, you said it, so stand on what you're saying. I don't understand why. It's like, I think it's because the Swifties are like easy to blame. I think we have this, you know, stereotype connotation, whatever. So if you're going to be like, oh, but the Swifties are crazy, like they attacked me. People will be like, oh yeah, like that makes sense. It's the Swifties. No, it's you not watching your goddamn fucking mouth. Like watch your goddamn mouth, and then we'll have some respect for you, Josh. God, like go paint your freaking face and go hide in the freaking district. I don't know. You know like when everyone's like, oh, my specialty is bow and arrow, my specialty is throwing things, and then Josh Hutcherson's just like the most realistic face painting ever of him as a tree. It's like, when did he even have the time to paint his face? Where did he get the paint in the arena? I don't know. And Katniss was carrying his ass the entire fucking time. Every time I rewatch those movies, all I think to myself is, wow, Katniss? PETA would be dead in the first five seconds if it wasn't for Katniss. All she did was carry his ass all around, especially in the quarter quell in Catching Fire. In the beginning, like when they're in the arena for the quarter quell, he was getting bit by bees. He was getting hit by the freaking air smoke. He was breaking his leg. Like everything he was doing hindered Katniss and Katniss had to, like, just carry him the entire time. Put him on his back, literally. Finnick, I think, had to put PETA on his back. So, we just need to be careful with the words that we put out there, Josh. Be careful with, like, don't kick the hornet's nest, you know? So that's all I really have to say about that. Finn Wolfhard, same thing. I don't think Finn Wolfhard has said anything about them, or anything about that whole debacle, and I would be surprised if he ever addresses it, because, like, how do you even justify, oh, it was a moment in pop culture, shut the fuck up, shut up! I'm just, I'm over people using Taylor in a negative way, for clout, for whatever it is, to be provocative, to be a rock star, whatever you want to call it. It's really stupid to me. I just feel like if he wants to have a music career, maybe make good music, maybe be a better singer. I don't know what to tell you, like, he's a good actor, maybe sick to acting, because clearly music may not be your thing. Okay. After, it's like, these men be shady, I have to be shady back to these men, you know? I don't think that I, I just don't think that I like Finn Wolfhardt anymore. I don't think I like Josh Anderson anymore. Is that so crazy to say? I think I'll always like PETA from Hunger Games. You know, I just feel like I have this weird middle ground where I'm like, either I want to go to bat for Taylor, cause like, it's like, I'm not personal, like no one personally said anything about me, this is Taylor Swift, like she's a human being, she doesn't need people fighting her battles. But if these people are going to be shady online, like, here's where the parasolisher comes out again, like, Taylor Swift to me is my friend. And I know that that's not real, she's not my friend, she has no idea who I am, she doesn't, she lives her life, she doesn't need me to do anything for her, I understand that. But when it comes to people being shady online about her, it's like, I'm not, I don't, I'm not gonna, we can't let them get away with this. You know what I mean? We can't keep letting them get away with this. So that's where I'm just like, I understand that it's not my fight, my battle to fight, but don't piss me off. Because if you're gonna talk shit about Taylor, you're pissing me off, okay? So anyways, that's that on that. Nothing really else in the Taylor Swift world. Oh, you know what I just realized as a topic? Record Store Day was on April 17th. I know, or was it April 18th? April 18th. I know that we were clowning a little bit. If something was gonna happen on April 18th, there was some clowning for an extra record. That was debunked. There was some clowning for maybe, I don't really know, honestly. What else were we clowning for? Debut announcement? I feel like Kelly's always clowning for something, and I can't remember what it was. But we had our eyes peeled for Record Store Day, just in case there was any movement. But no, it's just the Elizabeth Taylor Record Store Day exclusive vinyl. I just wanna shout out my boyfriend TJ. He snagged that vinyl for me in Chicago. I have no idea. He said he was bopping around Chicago, went by his local record store, and they had it. So he bought me one. So I'm so excited! I'm so excited to get it in. I guess I won't have it until the next time I go to Chicago, because TJ and I are going to Charleston this weekend, which I'm also so excited for. But I don't think he's gonna be bringing the vinyl to Charleston, because bringing a vinyl in a suitcase is a really bad idea. I wonder how I'm gonna get that home, because he also has my Kiss All The Time disco occasionally vinyl. So I might just need to bubble wrap the shit out of that and send it back to my house, but I'm not 100% sure. That doesn't matter. He got me the vinyl. He sent me some pictures. It looks unbelievable. And I'm really happy that he got it, because I was kind of disappointed in myself for not getting up and going and waiting in line. But I just hate waiting in line for stuff. Like, I hate it. I have no patience. I can't do it. But I do really want to start getting better at my vinyl collection for Taylor. So I'm very happy that he did that for me. I didn't even ask him to do it. He just texted me like, Hey, by the way, got you this. Obviously freaked out. Best boyfriend ever. Literally best boyfriend ever. So that was great news for me. Can't wait to get my hands on that. I also had the opalite one. So my vinyl collection is coming together. I also have a list of vinyls that I need. Let's see if I can find them. Because it's a lot. Oh yeah, here we go. I need Debut, Fearless, Fearless Taylor's version, Speak Now, Red, Red Taylor's version, 1989, Reputation and Lover. And I've heard that the Reputation vinyl is impossible to get your hands on. So who knows if I'll ever get that. And I'm trying to decide if I need the Taylor's version and the OG version. And my gut tells me yes. My gut tells me yes, Gia, you do. You need all of them. So we're going to try to get our hands on that. Now I can add Elizabeth Taylor. I guess it's like what, seven inch vinyl? Because it's just Elizabeth Taylor. And then on the back, I believe it's like Elizabeth Taylor cabaret version or something of that nature. So very excited to get my hands on that. Shout out to TJ, hell to the yes. So let's get into some other Taylor adjacent topics. Because really there wasn't, there just really wasn't anything going on in the world of Taylor today. Like this weekend, very, very, very low key in terms of news from Taylor. Let's get into some other topics. Some hot topics. Guys, I literally feel like Wendy Williams. Isn't that why I do the hot topics? Okay, so first let's talk about Coachella. Coachella Weekend 2, I've heard that Coachella Weekend 2 is like way more fun, way more chill, the crowd's better, the vibe is better. And from what I saw, that seems to be the case also, seems to be the case in terms of like the sets, because I was watching Addison Rae's set live, look down at my phone, look up, Olivia Rodrigo's on my screen, I was freaking, I was literally, I was recording my TV like I was at Coachella, I was like, oh my god, Olivia Rodrigo, say whatever. So they did, they did a song, I'm not sure what song they did together, and then Olivia performed her new single, Drop Dead, which I don't know about you guys, but I have been loving, loving, loving, down, and I have been seeing a lot of positive interactions between, I believe they're called Livvys, which are the Olivia Rodrigo stans. I believe the Livvys and the Swifties are banning together to get Drop Dead to number one. And I love that. I love to see the Livvys and the Swifties coming together. Like this is what we should be doing, we should be supporting each other, lifting each other up, getting each other to number one, whether that matters to the artist or not. It always matters to the fans. So I love to see the kumbaya between all the girlies and the Addison Rae. The Rae. What are the Addison Rae fans called? I think I talked about this ones, but I did see that one time they were called the Racists. Now I know that's not their actual name, Racists, but that is a hilarious name. That's a hilarious fan name. I don't know what they're called, the Addies, the Adderalls. No, that can't, that doesn't make any sense. The Addison Raeers. Anyways, the Addison Rae fans and the Livvys came together when Olivia came out and performed her new song, Drop Dead, been loving that song. I think it sounds a lot like Hot To Go. It was like, what's it take to get your number? What's it take to get you home? And then like, Olivia is singing her part. It's like, did you ever take that Euro Star to France? It sounds very similar to me. I have no issue with that, by the way, because Hot To Go is a great song. I've been really liking the Drop Dead song. I've been listening to it nonstop. It's making me super excited for her new album. But yeah, the performance was great. It was really cute. And Addison also brought out Maddie Zegler, which I believe happened weekend one. So that was a huge surprise. We were also clowning on if Olivia Rodrigo was doing a surprise set at Coachella. I don't think that happened, unless my phone was not giving me the right information, but I didn't see anything about that. So hopefully I didn't miss that. And then what else? Oh, obviously Sabrina and Madonna. Love that. That was dying for that. I watched that live on Friday as well. I'm such a Sabrina Carpenter stan, guys. I love her like her and Taylor are getting neck and neck at this point. Like I, she's like one A behind Taylor. Like I really have been obsessed with her. Actually, she might be one B because Gracie Abrams might be one A. Whatever. We don't have to list these women. I just love them all so much. But Sabrina Carpenter love her so much to the point where I watched her set again live at midnight. I was just unbelievably impressed by everything that she was doing, the new outfits. It was like watching it again for the first time, even though I already saw it. And then the gag of the century, the gag of all gags, Madonna came out. Like, what do you mean Madonna? That is the ultimate get, I feel like. You know, if Taylor, if we couldn't get Taylor, like at least we got, at least. If I'll take Madonna for Taylor, I guess, you know, just to hear Sabrina and Madonna sing like a prayer together. It was like angels. I felt like I was ascending into heaven. They sounded so good together. I was a little disappointed that there was no Taylor. However, here's the thing. I do kind of feel like this is Sabrina's big moment. It's, she's her first time headlining Coachella. She's worked so hard to get here. Everything has worked out in her favor. Like she went through all this backlash. She came out on top from it. She's finally headlining Coachella. She said two years ago, like I'll see you guys back here when I headline all this stuff. Finally headlining. I fear that if Taylor came and came out, that's like the only thing people would be talking about. It's like, oh my God, Taylor Swift, Taylor Swift, Taylor Swift, which like obviously it makes sense because it's Taylor fucking Swift. But it's like Sabrina's moment to shine, you know? And I'm not saying that this is because I'm not saying that Sabrina didn't bring out Taylor because she wanted her time to shine. I just feel like I am fine with Taylor not coming out as a guest because it's Sabrina's big moment, you know? Like I'm not going to be a stickler about who she's bringing out as guests. So when Madonna came out, I was gagged. I guess Madonna's coming out with a new album or something of that nature. So Sabrina and Madonna did a new song, and I think Sabrina is going to be featured on the new album, which is incredible. So congrats to Sabrina for that too. Like imagine, yeah, I have a song with Madonna. Not only does she have a song with Dolly Parton, now she has a song with Madonna, which is so crazy. She's collecting all the OG musician women singers, all the GOAT women singers, like Infinity Stones. So who knows who she's going to be singing with next? Janet Jackson, maybe? Paula Abdul, maybe? Who knows? Cher? Who knows? So very happy for Sabrina with that. She sounded absolutely incredible to the point where I was like, she needs to put out a live Coachella album. I thought that she was totally proving herself in terms of vocals. Because as a stan, I have known that Sabrina has those vocals. I haven't seen her perform live, but I've heard it through my phone. And she's always had an incredible voice. It's only just gotten better and better. And I think that this Coachella performance really solidified her as a contender for a best pop vocal girl. Like, in those lists of best pop vocal girlies, you know, like Ariana, Adele. Why can I not think of anybody who sings? Celine Dion. Like, I think you could put Sabrina, add Sabrina to that list somewhere. On the lower end, obviously, cause I think she still has ways to go, but she was unbelievable. We almost broke up again last night. Live vocals, I need that in my ears ASAP. I need a live from Coachella performance, from Sabrina Carpenter, maybe even like a documentary thing that, you know, Beyonce did that documentary. I forget what it was called, but she like did like a Coachella documentary about Beychella, Bee-chella, and I don't know if she ever put that out. I think she definitely did, cause I remember like, yes, I think she definitely did the live album of Coachella from her performance, cause I remember like listening to it, like getting ready and pre-gaming and stuff cause it's so fucking good. So I really hope Sabrina does something of that nature. I really hope that she announces some sort of tour for Man's Best Friend. I know she literally was just on tour, but it just made me really want to go see her live. I actually had the opportunity to go see her live with Kelly, but I backed out last second because I was with TJ and I didn't want to leave him by himself. Like, what was I thinking? I should have just went. He would be fine for a couple hours by himself, but I just feel bad, like you fly all the way to New York and then I'm just going to leave you there. So I need to go see Sabrina. I need to see her at some point. I want her to go back on tour, so I will be waiting patiently for that. Speaking of tour, I believe Justin Bieber is sometime, someplace announcing a tour. There's been a lot of rumblings on my Twitter, a lot of rumblings after his Coachella performance that people think that a tour is coming. I'm going to be completely honest, I did not watch any part of Justin Bieber's performance from the second night. I saw a clip of him and SZA singing snooze together, and they sounded incredible. And I saw that lovely clip of Billie Eilish getting pulled up for the One Less Lonely Girl. I don't know why, but a lot of people were being like, oh, it should have been Hailey, blah, blah, blah. I'm pretty sure from what I could tell in the clip and from what people were saying online, it seems like Hailey was the one that pushed Billie to go do it. It seemed like maybe Hailey was supposed to do it, but she made Billie go up and do it, which is so cute and so sweet. Billie, I know that we have our qualms about her on the show, and I know Kelly has her qualms about her. But one, I love her music. Two, I think it's really sweet when things like this happen because it's like, oh yeah, celebrities are just like us, and there's actually this really sweet video of Billie talking about, I think it was like the first time she met Justin Bieber, and she was like, every time, like we were hugging and like, I was crying so hard that every time, like I would breathe in and like take a breath, like he would hug me tighter, like he changed my life, blah, blah, blah. And then Phineas is like, yeah, that's like what you are to your fans. And I just thought that it was such a beautiful moment, like a beautiful moment of like realization, like wow, that's how my fans feel towards me. So it's just like cute to see someone as popular, as famous as Billie Eilish, like be a fan girl, because it's one, very relatable, and two, like, I don't know, it makes them more human in a way. Not saying that I never like thought that Billie Eilish wasn't human, but it just like makes you realize like, yeah, like it doesn't matter who you are, like meeting your idol is meeting your idol, being on stage with your idol, I'm sure as a kid, she dreamed of being the one less lonely girl. I mean, who didn't? Who didn't dream of being the one less lonely girl? My cousin texted me and he was like, you should have been the one less lonely girl instead of Billie. And I was like, that's kind of blasphemous because I'm really not a Justin Bieber stan anymore, but I really was. Like, I was ten toes down for Justin Bieber that, we need a ten toes down marker on this episode. But I was obsessed with him. I had a cardboard cut out of him, him and Louis Tomlinson. I was obsessed with Justin Bieber. I wore the purple flat cap and the purple American apparel zip up to the Never Say Never premiere. I went to, I think, two of his shows. I either went to one or two, I don't remember, but I wore a purple shirt and I cut fringes on the bottom of the shirt. If you know, I feel like that was such a popular trend in the early 2010s to add fringes to your shirt and then do like glitter glue, sparkle pen on the shirt. So it was like Belieber, Justin Bieber, whatever it is. So I was a huge fan of Justin Bieber. So seeing Billie Eilish be the one less lonely girl, I was like, oh my God, like that must be such a full circle moment for her. Even though I do think it would have been really sweet for it to be Hailey, I, like she's his wife. Like it's, it's really not the, at the end of the world. I feel like it was cute. I'm happy for Billie Eilish. She was freaking the fuck out. I mean, who wouldn't wait the part where Billie Eilish, like Justin was like holding her kind of, and then he was like singing into her ear. I would have died. Like, you can't, it's Justin Bieber. Like Justin Bieber will always be like, I don't, I don't want to say untouchable, but he has just cemented himself as like such a cool, hot guy. I don't know, like that. Anything he does, like he's, he's sexy. You know, I'll say it. Justin Bieber is sexy. And I think a lot of women out there will agree with me. So if he's like whispering, like, I'll take you and make the world one less lonely girl.

Speaker 2:
[50:56] It's gonna be one less.

Speaker 3:
[50:57] Like he's whispering that shit in your ear. Like, how do you not drop the fuck dead? And then he like goes down to the crowd. He's pulling that girl's arm over him. Like he was loving it. So it seemed like it was a really good performance. I'm not sure what like nostalgia songs he did. Obviously, One Less Only Girl, and then like some other ones, I would assume. And then Swag Swag Two. I just, I don't know why I wasn't like as invested. I think because I knew how swag heavy this performance was gonna be. So I didn't really, I was not gonna stay up till 2 a.m. again. I, whatever clips come up on my For You page, that's what I'll be watching. I'm not gonna be like seeking anything out. But Sis, oh, and then he also brought out Big Sean to do, as long as you love me. God, that song's a banger too.

Speaker 2:
[51:46] We could be starving or we could be broke.

Speaker 3:
[51:49] It's not the same without Kelly here singing. It really is not the same. Miss you, miss you Kelly, wherever you are. Wherever you are in Vegas, partying up in a pool. You're probably in a bathing suit right now. Probably getting like foam sprayed on you. Good times. Anyways, miss singing with you. Big Sean came out and did No Pressure and As Long As You Love Me, two banger songs. So again, I feel like we can too really, one in terms of like guests. Oh, and Sabrina brought out Gina Davis, who to be fair, when I saw who this woman was, who was doing the monologue, I was like, who the hell is this lady? So sorry to Gina Davis. Like that's disrespectful as fuck. I need to open a book. Thelma and Louise, like hello, do I live on planet Earth? So sorry to Gina Davis in my brain, because I didn't say that to anyone. Thank God I didn't tweet that. So sorry to Gina Davis. And then she also brought out Terry Crews to do what Will Ferrell did. He was like the tech guy who had to like put the power back on. He took a shirt off. Terry Crews, he loves to take a shirt off. That is one thing for sure. And then, I forget his name, Fogelmintus. I forget what his last name is. Sabrina's bestie. He reprised his role. So people were really bringing out those old jobs. Addison Rae with Olivia Rodrigo. And then Madonna, Gina Davis, Terry Crews. Justin Bieber brought out SZA, Big Sean. And then Billie Eilish for the One Less Lonely Girl. And then on Sunday, I saw that Carole G announced her tour at the end of the set. At the end of her sets, that's super excited. Carole G looked like she killed it both weekends. So I don't know if there was any difference in her performances just in terms of vibes. It seemed like the vibes were heavy for both performances. And who else did I watch on Sunday? Gigi Perez. She was really cute, really good. Sailor song is such a good song. I don't really know her other stuff. But it seemed like Coachella weekend two was definitely the vibe. So if I ever get invited, I'm manifesting one day that a brand says me to Coachella, manifest, manifest. I am. No, that's what you're supposed to do. You're supposed to say, a brand is going to invite me to Coachella next year for weekend two. And they are going to send me to weekend two, and Gracie Abrams is going to perform at Coachella, and Taylor Swift is gonna headline. Do you guys think Taylor Swift would ever headline Coachella? I feel like, yeah. You know, like it's so iconic that at some point, maybe not in the future, maybe not in like the next three to five years, but I could totally see her headline in Coachella at some point. It's like she was supposed to headline Glastonbury in 2020, I believe, and then it was canceled because of COVID obviously. So that would have been so iconic. Oh man, that would have been so awesome because Glastonbury is kind of like the British version of Coachella. I don't know if that's really offensive to say, because I know like Glastonbury is supposed to be more about like rock and then like Jay-Z headline Glastonbury and then like the Oasis guys were all up in arms about it and then Jay-Z like made fun of them by performing Wonderwall. So maybe they, and I'm pretty sure Dua Lipa headline Coachella or Glastonbury like last year or the year before that. So I don't think it's as rock adjacent. And obviously, wait, what am I saying? Because Taylor Swift literally was going to headline in 2020. So obviously it's like more pop-ish now. And I've heard great things about Glastonbury. So who knows, maybe at some point she would want to headline Coachella. Seemed like they had a lot of fun when they went. And you know, she's been a couple of times before as we know, Bleachella, Bleachella. And you know what's so funny, I was seeing on TikTok, I didn't even realize this, but it's so iconic of Taylor Swift to have coined the term Bleachella without ever headlining Coachella. Like, she has her own Coachella name without ever headlining. We have Beychella, Sabrinachella, Bieberchella, all these things, and we have Bleachella, and Bleachella was never even headlining. The Bleached Blonde herself, you know? So, everyone was just talking about how iconic it is, and it really is iconic to have a whole moment based around your hair, even though you did not headline the show. It was just so iconic that she was one there, and that she was two, had bleached hair, and she was dancing her ass off, having a good time with all of her friends. So, that was something to ponder on, something to think about, and I just feel like, at some point, I will, I'll put some money on that Taylor Swift will perform at Coachella, because, I don't know, I just feel like, at some point, why not? It's so iconic, you know, everyone's talking about you, all those things, so we'll have to keep an eye out. One day, one year, we'll have to see if Taylor Swift ever performs. It would be absolute pandemonium. Because I heard that it was kind of crazy in the crowd for Justin Bieber's performance Weekend 1. People were scared it was going to be another Astral World, that there was just a lot of crowd congestion, I guess you could say, a lot of pushing and things of that nature. And so people were scared. So I can't even imagine what it would be like for Taylor Swift. I feel like, maybe though, Swifties are a little less crazy than Beliebers in terms of getting close to Justin and getting close to Taylor. Eh, I don't know. Maybe I would put them at the same level of intensity for their stand. So we'll have to see on that. I feel like if it's anything, Coachella knows how to control that stuff, and they've been doing it for years, so they're veterans, and they'll know how to take care of the situation. So who knows, successful Coachella, weekend one, weekend two, maybe one day I'll be able to get out there, experience it for myself. I would love to. I think I got one more in me. I think I got one more festival in me. I was thinking about going to Lollapalooza, but I think we talked about this already, but I just feel like it's so high school heavy that I would need VIP or something. Is that so suck up of me to say? I just, I feel like I would just feel so old being in the crowd. So I would not want to be in the crowd, so I don't feel old, if that makes any sense. So speaking of Olivia Rodrigo's new album, or sorry, new song, because she was a guest with Addison Rae, I watched the music video, thought it was fabulous, thought it was really pretty. It was directed by, what the F is her name? She's so iconic. And hold on, sorry, Olivia Rodrigo music video, it's like director, director, director. It's a woman, she's like, Petra, Petra Collins. Okay, wait, so I guess she's like, she's the primary music video director. Brutal, good for you, vampire, bad idea, right? So that's very cool. Petra Collins is like an icon. I mean, she, I think, I feel like everybody's aesthetic was Petra Collins in like 2016 on like Tumblr, like she ran Tumblr. Everyone was obsessed with her, still obsessed with her. She has such an iconic aesthetic, and I think it fits Olivia Rodrigo perfectly. I don't know how much it costs to rent out the Palace of Versailles for the night. I can't even fucking imagine how much money was spent on that music video. And I just thought it was so cute. She's like in this cute little outfit, running around, you know, stocking her, stocking on the internet, on the computer, wearing the Walkman. So if you guys haven't watched that music video, definitely go check it out. I really, really liked it. In terms of other new music, we have Gracie Abrams, who just teased a little snippet of her new song on Instagram. I believe that was today. People thought that maybe she would announce her new album today, because it's funny how, and you know, I don't know if, it has to stem from Taylor Swift, like these Easter eggs, you know, connecting the dots, things of that nature. Like it has to be Taylor Swift inspired, because the Gracie fans, and you know, I don't even know the name for the Gracie fans, now that I think about it, and I'm one of them. Abrams, the Abraham Lincolns, were the Gracie's, the Gracie girls, were the Gracie girls? I don't know what they are. Gracie girls and gays and guys? Gracie girls, guys and gays, and these? Maybe, who knows? Anyways, Gracie Abrams, I guess when she was putting out The Secret of Us, changed her profile picture, and then announced the album that Monday. She like changed it on a Friday, and announced the album that Monday. So people were speculating that maybe she would announce the album today because she changed her profile picture this weekend. However, now she just posted a little snippet of a new song. So excited. I'm so ready for this album. I don't think that there's been any updates besides that. Let me just double-check her Instagram to make sure. But no, yes, she just posted this little snippet of the song. She's in her cute little red sweater. It's very similar to the last time she posted a snippet of the song. I love you, I'm sorry. So we're seeing some patterns back again. And yeah, very excited for Gracie. Also, Noah Khan has a new album coming out this week. And I feel like we need to start talking about this more because I heard a snippet of a song on TikTok and I was like, oh shit, this album, I'm not prepared. I feel like these albums are gonna kill me. Gracie, Noah, Olivia. Like based off all these, based off what I've heard from these albums, I'm not prepared mentally nor physically. I would highly suggest going to Noah Khan's TikTok because he's been like teasing a bunch of different songs and they all sound incredible. And can I just say, I know a lot of these times like artists feel this need to switch up their genre, you know, to keep things fresh, to make sure things like don't sound the same, whatever. Like, you know, you don't want to be stuck in one category for your whole career. But is that really that bad? I'm like so happy that Noah Khan is putting out another album that sounds similar to Stick Season because I loved Stick Season. I love Noah Khan. Like, I feel like he's that guy that I go to for like those specific like sad indie types of songs with a good, you know, chorus change or whatever it is. I feel like he has like these big like grand moments in his song where like the song starts to pick up. I don't really know how to like explain that with words. But I'm really glad that he's kind of sticking to the same genre, if that makes any sense, because I loved Stick Season so much, I was kind of worried that maybe he would try to switch it up. But no, seems like he's staying in that direction, staying in that lane. And I'm praising him for it. Like, I feel like sometimes if you know what works, like why change it? You know what I mean? And I feel like people are giving Olivia Rodrigo some slack for like changing up her sound, because she's like leaning a little bit more like pop this album. And I also appreciate that. Like I feel like you know what works for yourself, you know what works for your fans and like what speaks to you. So I don't feel like artists need to have this pressure to change their genre. But if they do, congrats to them. And I don't think Olivia Rodrigo is like changing her genre that much. Like I would say she did like pop rock in her first two albums. And she says it's like leaning a little bit more towards pop. So we'll have to see if there's any like rock songs on there. I'm sure there'll be maybe one or two. But respect to Noah Khan. Very excited. His album comes out on Friday. Cannot wait. It's going to make me sad and I'm going to die. Guys, imagine if there's a Taylor Swift collab on there. I mean, she just hasn't said anything. Because he was saying that she's his dream collab. And Travis did follow him on Instagram. And now that Kelly put that in my head, I'm like, oh, I want them to collab. I want them to collab so bad. It also doesn't seem like that Sabrina Olivia collab is happening. There's a lot of people talking about that on Twitter. You know, those stupid Twitter accounts, like Nostradamus Insider or whatever. It's like Olivia and Sabrina collab incoming. It doesn't seem like that's happening. It's disappointing, honestly, not going to lie, but what are you going to do? I mean, like it was almost too much. It's almost too much to ask. It's like, are we really going to rehash all this drama that I feel like they finally have kind of like separated themselves from that storyline with Josh Bassett, whatever. And them doing a song together will definitely rehash all those feelings. Speaking of Josh Bassett, gonna go off on a little tangent here. Josh Bassett, first off, fell off the face of the planet, like, whatever. And then he has the gall to say that he's writing a book, and that the book is gonna be like his diary. Like somebody commented, like, is this book going to be, or like, are you gonna talk about Sabrina? Oh, I don't know, I don't know if they, if he addressed it specifically, but someone said like, oh, are you gonna talk about like whatever happened, whatever? And he's like, oh yeah, like, don't worry, I'm gonna be bringing up everything. All right, Josh Bassett, like, is that, if that's what keeps you relevant, I don't know what happened to him, he just like turned to God, and then all of a sudden, like, stopped acting, like, I feel like I haven't seen him in a role in forever. But yeah, I guess he's putting out a new book called Rookie, and he's getting ready to shade everybody, so watch out world for Josh Bassett. Like, I just really could care less, honestly. Oh, I guess he put out a new song in, oh, this was 2025. He's got a, oh, he was in Little Shop NYC? Little Shop of Horrors, I guess he was in for a second. I don't know, but I will not be reading, I will not be buying Josh Bassett's book. I support my ladies, and I just, I feel like that's just a cash grab. He's asking for a cash grab. And like, what does he even have to share in his book? I guess he did kind of like, I don't really know his tea. I don't really know what went down with him. I kind of just erased him from my mind and followed Olivia and Sabrina. But yeah, we'll have to see. Okay, next up on our list of this story. This story is crazy. So all my directors out there, I'm sure everyone has already talked about this and discussed it at length, but I was shocked to see this story. So Louis Tomlinson and Zane Malick were supposed to come out with a documentary basically recapping all that they went through together, and then going on this journey to heal themselves and bond. They were supposed to go on a road trip, and the road trip was going to be the whole documentary, and throughout the road trip, they're reflecting and reminiscing and things of that nature. So I was surprised to see that TMZ posted an article. Wait, I'm dead. They must have changed this. They must have changed this headline because this was not the headline that I clicked on. Zane Malick and Louis Tomlinson were heading One Direction a bare knuckle brawl. That's crazy. So it says, sorry One Direction fans, a reunion seems ever less likely to happen because a new report claims Zane Malick slugged Louis Tomlinson, claiming the fight went down during the filming of a new Netflix reality show, which was supposed to focus on the pair bonding on a road trip. The outlet says, sources told them the fight was triggered when Malick made a crack about Tomlinson's mom, who died of cancer in 2016. Not the kind of quip friendships usually come back from. Tomlinson allegedly took a step toward Malick, whose sources told the Sun, then punched Tomlinson right in the face. Malick was allegedly wearing rings, and he cut his former bandmate's head, drawing blood and concussing Tomlinson. The incident took place about six months ago, and the Sun claims that the two haven't spoken since. According to reports, Tomlinson has unfollowed Malick, the ultimate end to strained relationships in the modern age. So, you know, this is not something that you want to hear, obviously, it's really, really sad, it's scary, and it's like, it's just sad. That's the right, I think that's the word to describe it. It's very sad. I think obviously all of these members of One Direction have dealt with a lot growing up in the spotlight, being scrutinized, being so famous at such a young age, and being very strictly controlled by your management, by the label, all of those things. And then to come out of it, you're gonna have a lot of unhealed trauma. And then add the death of one of those members who was one of the glue guys, who constantly talked highly of every single person, who was struggling a lot, and did not get the help that he needed, which resulted in this tragic event, the tragic occurrence of Liam passing away. And that's a whole other traumatic thing to deal with. So these guys are just going through shit all of the time. And I do feel like Zayn, if anything, has kind of... Well, actually, like, I mean, Louis lost his mom and his sister, and I believe somebody else in his family, I can't recall, Zayn has gone through so much. Like, these guys have gone through so much. And I'm not excusing any of this alleged behavior from Zayn because you can't be punching people in the face. You just can't be punching people in the face. You cannot be bringing up somebody's dead mother, especially your friend. Like, I wonder if they were out. I wonder, and I don't want to be like, oh, like, what did he do to provoke him? Like, I wonder what Zayn said. Because here's the crazy thing. Louie didn't provoke him. Zayn was the one that said it, and then Louie got mad, and then Zayn punched him. It's like, dude, you're the one that said it. Again, this is all alleged, so we don't know if this actually happened. It's just a very sad situation altogether. You don't want to see this from any of the members of One Direction. If anything, I did not ever think that they would come together for a reunion or anything of that nature, but it was very nice to see that Louie and Zayn were going to make some sort of moment together where they could rehash all of their issues and bond and reflect and all those things, and then to have this be the conclusion of it is very sad. So I hope Louie's okay. I hope Zayn's okay. I know he was the provoker in the situation, but I just feel like they all have a lot of unhealed trauma that they're working through and dealing with, and maybe it wasn't the right time for them to be trying to relive all of it. I don't know if maybe Zayn got triggered by something or whatever it was. I just feel like you just never make a quip about any relative that's passed away, especially someone's mom. Like you just don't go there. I just don't understand what could have made him say anything along the lines of a joke about Louis' dead mom. It's just awful. It's really just awful. So I'm very disappointed to see this. I'm sad. I do remember hearing about this documentary and being like, wow, that's crazy. I can't wait to watch it. And then it kind of just like dissipated. Like I didn't really hear anything. There wasn't really any reasoning, whatever it was. So for this to come out, obviously, you know, this has to be the reason why. And yeah, it's just super disappointing. I feel really bad for Louis because I do feel like Louis has tried to have some sort of semblance of relationship with Zayn. Cause I know that they had a huge falling out. Like when Zayn left the band, I'm pretty sure, I'm not sure the nitty-gritty of it, but I'm pretty sure that they had like Twitter beef, that they were shading each other, Louis and Zayn. So like, I don't think that they had a good relationship to begin with. So it was nice to see that maybe there would be some reconciliation, but obviously not. So what are you gonna do? I feel like, you know, maybe it's for the best that this doesn't happen as much as I do think the fans wanted it to happen. Zayn, man, I don't know what's going on with. And then I guess this new album came out, Zayn's new album came out, and it flopped. So sorry to Zayn. Like, and it's just like, this might be his karma. This might be his karma for his bad actions. Yet conical. It came out on Friday, and I haven't heard one zip, or one inkling of anyone talking about, anyone talking about this album. I mean, the album cover is so bad. It's so bad. It's half his face and then half like a cheetah, or half like a leopard's face. Just like very 2010 Photoshop vibes. I don't know. So, my, you never want to see the boys fighting. And it seems like it was like a one-way fight. So like, it's not like, oh, you know, what happened on both sides, like Zayn, Zayn clearly did something to piss Louie off. Again, this is all alleged. So, you know, I'm just sad. I'm just sad for both of them. I'm sad for Louie. I'm sad for Zayn. I think I'll always like feel a little sad for these guys just because of everything they went through, everything with Liam. Like they just, they went through a lot. And I don't know. I just, I want the best for all of them. Even Zayn, even, even, even when he does shit like this, I'm like, dude, what is going on? Like, I feel like he's like, like that bad cousin that you have, that you're just like, you want the best for them, but they keep getting in their own way. Does that, does that make any sense? I don't even really have a cousin like that, that I think about it. But like, I don't know, friend, something of that nature. So I just hope they're doing all right. I hope everyone's okay. Apparently, oh yeah, did I say drawing blood and concussing Tomlinson? So he must have fucking clocked in. Like that's, that's bad. That's bad, bad, bad, bad, bad, bad. And I'm sad for the whole situation and what could have been. So yep, that's that. I don't really know how to close out that topic, but yeah, so that happened. So, you know, me and Madeline, me and Mad Dog were DM and being like, I don't even want to believe it. Like even if it is true, it's very hard to believe. Okay, next up, we have some more shade being thrown. And this is from two unexpected people. Someone that we talk about a lot about on this podcast, Charlie XCX and John Summit. Now, if you don't know who John Summit is, he's a huge DJ, very popular in the EDM space, kind of known for replying a lot to people on Twitter, addressing hate that he gets. Like, he's not afraid to, like, clap back to people, whatever. So, Charlie XCX says that she is making a rock album. I guess she was talking about how she was putting... Sorry, I'm trying to find the right... Did I not add it on my thing? I guess not. I thought I added it to my... Here we go. Okay, so Charlie XCX basically was like, the pop dance floor is dead, or the dance floor is dead in general, she said. And that's why she's making a rock album. She said, I think the dance floor is dead, now we're making rock music. And I guess that's lyrics from Charlie XCX's next album. John Summit took this personally, and he posted on his story that graphic of what Charlie said, of the lyrics, and said, maybe your pop music dance floor is dead, but ours isn't, babe. Okay, Shady, Shady Queen, John Summit. And then everyone's kind of now pulling out the receipts. I just wanted to talk about this, because I thought it was funny. Everyone's now pulling out the receipts that John Summit was like begging Charlie XCX for a collab. Like, it's always, that's, is that not how it always is? It's these men not getting what they want, so then they retaliate in a negative way. It's like, he apparently was like, please, Charlie, like, I have a song for you that's perfect for you, blah, blah, blah. And she never responded. So I guess John Summit took that personally and now like went to go troll her, being like, well, maybe your dance floor is dead. Like, no, you're just mad because she didn't want to collab with you. You know, it's it's I wish I could find the exact tweet, but he literally tweeted like, Dear Brat slash Charlie XCX, I just made this sick new song like that, that won't be complete without you, blah, blah, blah. So I guess she never answered or never responded. And John Summit got his panties in twist and is shading her. And I just don't like the usage of babe. Like I don't like when guys like say like honey or babe, in a shady way. It's like that's for girls. This is a girl thing. Like this is not for the boys. So I don't know. It's like it's just a perfect example of again, a man not getting what he wants and retaliating and, and trying to like one up that person. And it's just not working on your favor because you were begging her for a collab and you didn't get a collab. And now you want to, now you want to go after Charlie XCX. And you know, do I agree with those lyrics? The dance floor is dead? Kinda. Like, I'm not gonna lie. It kinda is dead. And of course, if you're going to like an EDM concert, a DJ set, everyone's gonna be dancing. But like in terms of like the bar scene and things of that nature, I just feel like the dance floor is kinda dead a little bit. Do I feel like it's gotten better? Yes. But I feel like the past, and I don't even wanna say it, but I'll give some credit to Brat. And I love that album, so actually I do wanna say this. Brat got people dancing, got people moving, got people shaking ass. And I feel like when I was going out at the bars, I was like, put on fucking Brat, like I wanna dance, you know? So I guess it really just, no one's the dictator of the dance floor, you know? Like no one's gonna be, actually the dance floor is dead. Actually, no, the dance floor is popping. It really depends on what music you like, where you're going out, and how much you have to drink, because you know, you get a little drink in you, you're gonna be dancing no matter what the song is. So I don't really know like who is the end all be all of saying the dance floor is alive or dead. And I can tell you right now, it's definitely not Charlie XCX and it's definitely not John Summit. So I don't know why he thought it would be smart to go after Charlie XCX. Again, I just feel like he is so like shady. He likes to clap back and whatever. So he probably thought he ate down with that response. And no, it's not the serve that you think it is, John. It really is not. So that being said, I'm going to close it out here with one more topic. And then will you will... I asked you guys to ask me some questions because I knew I would get nervous about what I wanted to talk about, what I wanted the topics to be. So I put some response, I put some questions on my story and hopefully we can go through them. Hopefully you guys don't mind me doing a little like Q&A moment. You guys can get to know me a little better, whatever. Okay, so one more topic, and that is that I saw the drama this weekend. So if you don't want spoilers for the drama, skip. I'll put in the timestamps in the bottom, so you can skip that and we can get right into the Q&A. But I just really quickly want to talk about the drama. Spoilers, spoilers, spoilers, spoilers. Okay, so I had been dying to see this movie, Loves in Day of Love, Rob Huston, was skeptical because goddamn motherfucking TMZ spoiled the fucking movie for me, which I was so pissed about, like two weeks ago, two or three weeks ago, before the movie even fucking came out, you get, like, I'm cursing now, so now I'm pissed, get them banned. I wanted literally to get them banned, TMZ, get them banned. They put out a article saying that, I guess parents of the Columbine victims are upset about, like, the plot line of this movie. So clearly, you're like, okay, Zendaya's Big Secret has something to do with a school shooting, has something to do with maybe Columbine, I don't know. I guess it didn't exactly give it away what her Big Secret was, but it gave you some context. And if you don't know what this movie is, you don't know what I'm talking about, in the trailer, it's like, everyone says what the worst thing that they ever done. They don't show what everybody says, but then Zendaya like says what she says, you don't know what it is, and everybody freaks out, and that's like the drama. And they're supposed to get married. And she like reveals this Big Secret, Rob Housen and Zendaya. And they're supposed to get married, she reveals this Big Secret like two days before their wedding, whatever, and it changes the scope of everything. Zendaya, her name is Emma in the movie. She reveals that she planned a school shooting, but did not go through with it. I was shook. Again, I don't think I took entire breath this whole movie in a good way though. I feel like I did not like the anxiety of Uncut Gems. I did like the anxiety of this for some reason because the stakes felt higher. It was more of an interesting, conflicting, confliction, like mental confliction that I was so intrigued the entire time. Like I was living on the edge of my seat, didn't take a breath, so focused, so engaged, the entire movie. And it's such a, such a interest. I don't even know if interesting is the right word in terms of like topic. It's such a taboo. That's, I feel like that's the right word. Taboo topic that when Zendaya reveals this, like everybody freaks out and they're like, wait, no, you're joking. Like what the fuck? Like what the fuck are you saying? What the fuck? And I want to just, I want to give my props to Alana Heim because she plays the annoying judgmental bitch very well. Like she crushed that role. And if you haven't watched the movie, like I actually just watching it even though I am spoiling it because it's still so interesting to see like how these characters react to this and stuff. And if you've seen the movie, I think maybe you'll agree with me when I say, what Rachel did just as bad, if not worse than what Zendaya did. Because Rachel actually locked a mentally challenged kid in a closet. Whereas Zendaya, like it's crazy that we're comparing these two. Zendaya didn't actually go through with what she was going to go through with. Rachel did, Alana Heim's character. Anyways, so it kind of goes into the depths of how easy it is for these troubled kids to get brainwashed and consumed by the aesthetics and community of owning a gun and school shootings and stuff like that. It's a very complex topic because it makes you think... I guess the whole point of the movie in my brain was kind of like... Not the whole point, but something that really made me enjoy it in a way that made me think was the fact that they chose Zendaya for this role. Because when you think about school shootings, you always think about a white man. Or at least I always do, a white male. And the whole thing is like, you never know who you're walking around with. You never know what's the worst thing people around you have ever done. So to pick Zendaya, who's a woman, a black woman, it really does make you think like, wow, if someone like Zendaya's character has ever thought about that, then who else has? You know? So, leaving the theater, I was like, who here? It's so freaky to think about. Like, who here has ever thought about something of that nature, you know? And then, like, to admit that you almost did something like that is so disgusting and disturbing that you must have been in such a deep, dark space. And they kind of, they dive deeper into that. Like, the headspace that Zendaya was in, what she was going through during that time, all of those things. And then you have Charlie, who's Robert Pattinson's character, and he's kind of, you know, battling with the fact that, you know, can he look past this? You know, all of these things. So it's just, it's very complex, and the story's very complex, and I think that's why I liked it so much. I gave it five stars on Letterboxd. I want to watch it again. I just felt like it was so interesting and complex, and to touch on such a taboo topic. Makes you really think, and it's like interesting to see how you empathize with each character, and who you empathize with, and all of those things. So I highly suggest watching it. If you haven't seen it, it will really get you thinking. It'll really get you on edge in a way, and it just unrolls and unravels into just absolute chaos that you just can't look away from. You really can't look away from. And 10 out of 10 performances from Zendaya and Rob Hatton. I mean, they put their whole bussies into this performance. There's a scene with Rob Hatton that I literally was like, oh, like legit gasped. And there's one like jump scare moment that I jumped out of my seat. Like I almost, I almost like broke my leg because I jumped out of my seat so high. So I just really, really suggest to go to see that movie. Yeah, I gave it five stars on Letterboxd. Wait, let me, let me, let me read what I, what my review was on Letterboxd. Because I just want to share. So five stars that said, I'm so on edge from this movie in the best way possible. I don't think I took a single breath the entire movie. Incredible performances from Zendaya and Rob Pattinson. The, oh, Rob Pattinson, I was obsessed with the editing and the cinematography was incredible, it was such a unique story as well that kept me intrigued the entire time. Yeah, the editing of this movie is so cool because they use, the way that they use back and forth cuts between like then and now is so interesting. And yeah, everything about it was just 10 out of 10. So highly recommend going to see the drama. All right, now let's jump into some questions from the people, from the listeners, from the followers, whatever it is. Some people have asked me some questions, so I'm gonna answer them. Someone said, tell us about you. Well, I don't even, when I get questions like that, I'm like, okay, tell us about me. Okay, I'm Gia. I'm 20, oh my God, I almost said I'm 26. Poor one out from here right now, y'all, I'm 27. That was sad. One time, I went to Govball, showed my guy my ID. The guy said, how old are you? And I said, I was 21. When I was 23, I was like, I'm so sorry. I think I'm just in denial, like whatever. He's like, well, I can't let you in because you didn't get your age right. I was like, well, fuck me. I'm just in denial that I'm getting older, okay? I just want to be 21 for the rest of my life. I'm 27, I'm a Pisces, born February 26th. I went to Michigan State University, graduated in 2021, immediately started working at Barstool as an intern that summer of June 2021. And I've been at Barstool since then. I began as a production intern, worked for Plan Bree, which was Brianna and at the time, Grace's podcast together. So I was their producer, got to go on some very cool trips with them, lived in a van, or not a van, lived in a bus with them. We went all across the country in a bus and did a college tour. We went to like South Carolina, Auburn, Georgia, Michigan State, somewhere else, some other stops that I can't really remember right now. So I think somewhere in Texas, I think we went to UT Austin too. It was a whirlwind of a couple of years. It went by so fast. I was working all of the time, grinding all the time. And then in September of 2023, 2024, maybe? Can't recall. I was moved to content. And then Kelly and I started Taylor Watch. So that's kind of my timeline of Barstool. I was an intern for like two years maybe, two and a half years, or maybe a year and a half? Either a year and a half to a year, I'd say. I was an intern, finally got a full-time production job, and then eventually moved to content. I think deep down, I always wanted to do content. Growing up, I always, you know, I was posting on Vine. I was, you know, making YouTube videos, making music videos, all of those things. I always liked to be involved with, you know, media. I just didn't know what. I thought maybe I wanted to be more behind the scenes. And I think because having my sister be so popular, and so like successful, I felt a lot of pressure. So I was like, oh, so why don't I just go behind the scenes? Because then I don't have to have the pressure of like, being famous, or like, growing a following, or whatever of that nature. But the more that I worked here, I think the more I realized that I wanted to be more front-facing, but I just didn't really want to admit that because I thought I would get in trouble. But it ended up working out in my favor. So some things, you know, one door closes another door opens, and I've been really loving being front-facing more and doing content and getting to know people and building a community and things of that nature. I have been adjusting to what it's like to have, to being scrutinized on social media and things of that nature. People not liking me. That's probably the biggest thing that I've been dealing with throughout this whole process is the fact that I kind of grew up like hoping that everybody would like me. Even when I was a bitch and mean and did something in like high school, whatever, I would automatically turn around and be like, okay, I'm so sorry. What did I do? Like, how do I get you to like me? Like, how do I get you to forgive me? Whatever. So, it's been a big learning process of, like, accepting the fact that not everybody is going to like me. And, you know, it's hard for me to grasp. So I'm like, what? I'm great. I'm funny. I'm cool. I'm semi-normal. I'm nice. I'm a good friend. But sometimes that's just not enough for people. And I do think I have somewhat of, like, a... Some people have, like, a public opinion of me because of Francesca and, like, being Francesca's sister and, like, working at Barstool and being, like, a Nepo baby or whatever. I think people have just, like, preconceived notions from that, which is fine. I have no qualms about, you know, people calling me Francesca or being called a Nepo baby or whatever, because it's like, yeah, Francesca is my fucking goddamn sister. And, like, I think I was put on this earth to be Francesca's sister, you know what I mean? Like, I just, I couldn't be luckier. It's not an insult to me at all. It's a blessing. It's, like, the biggest blessing of my life. So I don't really know why people think that's an insult, and I don't see it as one. I just think people use it in a way that they think is insulting to me, but it's really not. I grew up in New Jersey. Going back to telling you guys about me, I grew up in New Jersey, like you guys know. I have a boyfriend, TJ, who lives in Chicago. We do long distance. Someone said, well, I got two questions about TJ, actually. So we'll spill the tea a little bit here. We got, how are things with you and TJ? And we got, do you think you and TJ will get married? So two questions. First one, things are great with me and TJ. We're going to Charleston this weekend. We make such good, we have such a good effort in making sure that we see each other, that we're constantly communicating, that we're always keeping in touch with each other, whatever it is. And we really do make our relationship work that way. Even though it does suck, I fucking hate distance. At first I was kind of like, oh, it's nice. I have my life in New York, he has his life in Chicago and we're able to do our own things. At this point, I'm kind of like, all right, I just want our lives to be combined now. I just feel like when I'm alone on the weekends, I'm just like, oh, I wish my boyfriend was here, then I wouldn't be alone. You know what I mean? It's just like little things like that. However, I do still like the fact that I am independent in the sense of I don't rely on him for everything. I don't hang out with him every second. I have time to see my friends and do other things, and I'm not all consumed by my life with my boyfriend. I think it gives me a nice perspective. So I do enjoy that part of being independent in that way. However, I do miss him all the time, so it's a constant internal battle. But things are great. Things honestly could not be better. I love him so much, so anytime I see him, it's just a blessing. And obviously when I go to Chicago for work or whatever, I get to see him, and then we have the Chicago office, so it makes things a lot easier. If I miss a Friday, I can go in. So the Chicago office on Friday, instead of going into the New York office, and I'm still at work, so I'm not missing work or anything of that nature. As for do I think TJ and I will get married? I think yes. As of right now, I can confidently say yes. Of course, I want to get married to TJ at some point. I don't want to get engaged until I'm 30, so you guys will have to hold out for that. But first, let's move into the same city, right? Let's move into the same city. I love Chicago. I love this city. I think it's great. I think the people there are great. I think all the people that work at Barstool are great. I think the food is next level. The food is amazing. The food, low-key better than New York. Do I want to live there? No. Just because my friends are in New York, my family's in New York, my parents are in the East Coast, my extended family's in New York, my sister's here, my show's here, Kelly's here. My whole life is in New York. I have a cat, I have my great apartment, all of those things. So I don't really feel incentivized to move to New York. I also feel like, I don't know if they would want me in the Chicago office. So I'd be even scared to be like, hey, could I work in the Chicago office? That would be so scary to even ask. But at some point, I do think that TJ and I will be able to work something out, whether it's like, he's in New York for a month and then in Chicago. At some point with our jobs, I think we'll be able to figure something out. But first, I would like to live in the same city. And then we could talk about engagement, marriage, all of those things because I'm still far away. Oh my God, I was going to say I'm far away. I'm 27, bitch. You're 27, you dumb bitch. Gonna be 33 fucking goddamn years.

Speaker 2:
[98:42] Oh shit, I'm fucked.

Speaker 3:
[98:44] I'm fucked, y'all. No, we'll be fine. I have nothing but positive things to say about my relationship with him. Every time we hang out, it's amazing. We have the same hobbies, we have the same interests, we have the same humor. He treats me like a queen. He's so nice, he's so generous. He's just the perfect boyfriend. He loves me in a way that I've never been loved before, ever. I've never been respected by my boyfriend. I've never been appreciated and loved by my boyfriend like he does. He doesn't listen to me, he doesn't judge me, he doesn't do the things that my old boyfriends used to do. He just genuinely cares for me in a way that I've never experienced in my life. So I would never want to give that up, I would never want to lose him. So we'll make it work. No matter what happens, we will make it work. I do not have any hesitations or underlying issues in terms of that nature. And when we talk about distance, we don't fight, which I think is a really positive thing. When we talk about our future together, it never ends in an argument, it always ends up with us understanding each other's sides and things of that nature. So, yeah, show shout out to CJ, Best Boy Forever. Favorite thing about Michigan. So sorry to Michigan. What is my favorite thing about Michigan? My friends that live there, the Ta. I haven't experienced Michigan in a way that I should. I haven't been to the UP, I've never swam in the lakes, I've never went to up north, or the dunes, I feel like the big bear, what are they called, the big bear dunes? I've never been there. I haven't really experienced Michigan, I've only experienced Detroit, Lansing, and where is my friend from? Grand Rapids. So it's like I'm not, I haven't really experienced everything. So I don't really have anything to run home about with Michigan, to be so honest. The weather kind of sucks. I'm sure it's gray in the summer there, because I've never experienced Michigan summer because I've never lived there in summer. And the winter is fucking brutal there. It's way more brutal than New Jersey. Were you a Disney channel or Nickelodeon kid? Ooh, I was both. But I would say more Disney channel. But I really like both. I love Dick Harley, Victorious. What else did I watch on Nickelodeon? SpongeBob, obviously, things of that nature. What kind of dress do you want to see Taylor wear for her wedding? This is so hard because I will be happy with anything that she wears, honestly, if it's not like heinous. I mean, I don't think she's gonna wear anything heinous. Like, I don't want to be shady, but the Heim sisters' dress, I hope she doesn't wear a high collar, poofy, big, bouffant top, you know, like the way that the Heim sister did. I hope she just wears something sleek, elegant, classic, whether she wants to do more form fitted, or I would love to see her in a big fucking princess ball gown dress. I think that's kind of what I want to see her in, maybe. Maybe something that's tight fitted in the top, and then like a big cupcake gown, long train, something extravagant but classy. I'm trying to think of a brand that I like. I don't really know bridal brands. Oh my God, there's that one brand that has the really intricate beading and the pearls and things like that. I could see her doing something really cool like that in the corset, something really beautifully intricate and designed. Rank each era on the tour by best costumes. Oh God, that's hard to do on the spot. But I think the best, I mean my favorite outfits were the lover body suits, the midnight body suits, and the fearless dresses and the folk lore dresses, and the one evermore bronze dress. So maybe I would do midnight's body suits, lover body suits, folk lore, what did I literally just say? Oh, folk lore dress, fearless dresses, that I would say evermore than I would say, I liked the OG 1989 outfits, I did not like the new ones. So maybe I'll put the speak now ball gown, the big ball gown, then I'll put the 1989, and then I'll put, ooh, wait, no, big ball gown, then I'll put TTPD, and then I'll put 1989, and then rep, and what am I missing? Oh, red, oh yeah, and then red after last, because red was just the shirt, right, in that bodysuit. Maybe low key I put that in front of rep, actually. I would put rep last, just because it was that one bodysuit the entire time, and the gold bodysuit was iconic, but I don't like the one-legged bodysuit. I don't, it's either like do the bodysuit or do like the full cat suit, you know? But what do I know? I wonder if you guys agree with me on that or not. Oh, this is cute. Favorite thing about Kelly? Favorite thing about Kelly? Oh my God, where do I even start? She's like the least judgmental person on planet Earth towards me. She is so nice, so caring, so generous. She takes care of me in so many different types of ways. She's always a listening ear for me. She's hilarious. We have the same humor. She gets my humor. She just goes out of her way to help people. She goes out of her way to make sure I'm good. She's always willing to give me advice. She's like another big sister to me, 100%. She has helped me in so many ways at Barstool and has been a helping hand towards me. She has just been so, and like for no reason, just because she's just generally a great person. I love doing this show with her. There's no one else I would rather do a show with truly because I just feel like we mesh so well. Our banter is great. We're hilarious together. And we have each other's backs no matter what. But my favorite thing about her, I think it's just how she sticks up for herself. She sticks up for her friends. And she is confident in who she is, and she teaches me to be confident. And I just have so much respect for her. So much respect for her, for everything that she does. This is hilarious. Someone said, if you had to choose, listen to Girl at Home every day for the rest of your life or be a Cowboys fan, I would have to pick Girl at Home. Don't look at me, you got a girl at home and everybody knows that. I wonder if I had to listen to Girl at Home every single day. By that point, then I would actually start to stan Girl at Home. I will never like the Cowboys. I think maybe I could get to a point where I like Girl at Home. Would you ever do a reality show slash Spring Break? Predictions for a Spring Break show? I don't really have any predictions. I really hope that Kelly serves the pot. I hope that the girls start, you know, getting the needle moving a little bit. And would I ever do a reality show? Yes, 100%. I don't care what it is, who's in it, what's it about. I would do it, no doubt. Listen guys, I'm trying to get famous. I'm trying to be famous. I don't care which way I get to be famous, but I want to be famous. So if that means being on a reality TV show, I'm gonna be on a reality TV show. Another favorite, oh, what's your Hogwarts house, Slytherin? I would say I'm a mix of Slytherin and Hufflepuff. Oh, favorite lyrics in Cowboy Like Me. That is a good question. I think, I think it has to be the skeletons in both our closets plotted hard to fuck this up, and the old men that I swindled really did believe I was the one. And the Ladies Luncheon had the stories of when they passed through town, but that was all before I locked them down. Yeah, locked it down. And the skeletons in both our closets plotted hard to fuck this up, and the old men that I swindled really did believe I was the one. And the Ladies Luncheon have their stories about when you pass through town. Oh, but that was all before I locked it down. Oh, I literally have the chills. Can you guys see? I have the chills from that. Oh, it's just so good. I also love, now you hang from my lips like the gardens of Babylon, with your boots beneath my bed, forever is the sweetest con. Fucking fire on a goddamn fucking page with that. Oh, God. So good. That's definitely my favorite, the bridge into like that next line. Um, anchovy update. Anchovy's doing great. She's slaying, hasn't eaten a wire since the whole debacle. So she's been safe, she's been good, she's been cute, and just being her cute old self. Are you nervous about talking solo for an episode? Yes. I've been very nervous this entire time. I hope I did a good job. I think I did a good job. I'm not sure. I probably repeated myself 50 million times, so I apologize for that. And let's do this last one. What are your top three best concerts attended and your very worst? This is hard because it's so hard to say that a concert was bad. I'm going to say top three was Harry Styles' MSG when I was on the floor with Rhea and Francesca, Aristotle, Miami, with Kelly. I don't know. I don't know. I don't know actually. Can I just say Aristotle in general? I'll just say all my Aristotle, all my Aristotle. And then who have I seen recently that was so good? Olivia Dean was so good. I saw her. She was amazing. I'm trying to think of someone that I walked out of that, and I was like, wow, what a fucking performance. Gaga. Gaga was fabulous. There's just so many good ones that I've seen, so many more bad ones. If anyone's bad, it's because of the crowd, it's not because of the artists. For my worst, I would put Mount Joy on there, not because Mount Joy was bad, but because everyone was fucking yapping their goddamn fucking ears off the entire goddamn time. And it's like, this isn't chat time, this is listen to music time. That's my biggest pet peeve. One of my biggest pet peeves, when you go to a reservation and your table's not ready, and they tell you to wait at the bar, it's like, well, no, I don't want to wait at the bar, I want to sit during my reservation. Two, when people are yapping it up, chatting, screaming, talking during concerts, shut the fuck up, shut up. I'm not here to listen to your conversation, I'm here to listen to the artist. So that would say that for Mount Joy, because people were yapping like no one's fucking business at that show. And I do feel like it's always those low key artists, where people think that it's like get together time. It's like no, it's not get together time. You know who was also so good? Hosier, Hosier was amazing. I left that concert really loving Hosier. Noah Kahn was amazing. I've just, there's just so many good ones. I've seen Niall Horan was actually so good too. I've been to a lot of concerts. So it's hard to say that any of them were bad. It's like if I'm paying money, like I have to be like, yeah, these guys were good. Role model was so good. Gracie Abrams was so good. Oh my God, I might have to put Gracie on there for my three. Gracie Harian and Taylor. The big three. Okay, so that's it. Solo episode done. I don't know if this was an absolute debacle, if this was a bomb. I hope that it wasn't. I feel like I finally started to get into a groove at some point. It was definitely awkward in the beginning. But I hope you guys enjoyed it. I hope you guys listen. Make sure to subscribe, make sure to like and whatever it is. Comment, please comment if you think I did a good job. If you think I did a bad job, just keep that to yourself. There's no need to tell me that, no need to spread that. So just keep that to yourself. Maybe text your friends, be like, oh my God, I listened to this podcast, and she did a solo episode. She sucks. She's nothing without Kelly. Kelly, no wonder that they need Kelly, because there's no Taylor Watch without Kelly. And that's facts. I do need Kelly here. It's not the same. It feels very empty. I feel like the SpongeBob, and she's Mr. Krabs, and I'm in the Chum Bucket, and she's in the Krusty Krab. This grill is not a grill. This grill is just a grill. This patty's just a patty. This I know. And fries just a fry. You know? That. This kitchen's not the same without you. That's how I feel about Kelly being gone. So make sure you guys show me some love in the comments if you think I deserve it. And yeah, I'll see you guys next week.
