Things We Got Wrong18 Kesä 2024

Top Model, Mental Movies, & Celebrity Blogs

We're exploring all the things we got wrong about pop culture and what pop culture gets wrong about us! We begin by jumping on the JLo trash train. TikTok turned on Jenny from the Block, so now we are. The millions of dollars she spent on a bizarro vanity project pushed us over the edge. Team Ben Affleck? We discuss the nightmare that was America's Next Top Model and Tyra Banks's rein of reality tv terror. Sarah explains what Hollywood gets wrong about mental illness including Psycho, One Flew Over the Cuckoo's Nest, and A Beautiful Mind. We hear why the early 2000s were a disturbing time with celebrity gossip blogs, stars behaving badly, and digital media. We talk about Oprah's fall from Grace and the cult of personality.
