I think it's really weird to compare "new girlies" to "old girlies" because we don't have hindsight on the new girls.

I personally think that Zendaya is another version of Blake lively. She’s mostly known for her red carpet, appearances and outfits rather than her acting. I kinda have to agree that Zendaya doesn’t really have much range as an actress just like Blake lively as well. However, Zendaya does seem to enjoy the fashion icon status so is it really all that bad?

29:10 country music won’t fully pop “mainstream” frfr until it breaks down that glass barrier of racism and allow other artists beyond white people to gain notoriety in that genre. I’ve seen Latin country artists, black country artists, Asian country artists that all deserve attention in one way or another but nope, all you see at any award show or country related platforms is by majority- severely whitewashed. Until those gatekeepers release themselves from their own racial prejudices country will never be as appealing as any other genre that’s more inclusive & whole heartedly welcoming to its artists that create music from it. Country doesn’t give that, the country realm of the music industry is very isolated, lacks creativity & COLOR, very white, and very bland/uninspiring. They need to accept more people of other demographics in if people ever want to see country as a too genre. That goes for ANY popular genre that gets commercialized- you have GOT to be more inclusive if you want mainstream success across the board.

[@Mtv20O1]

Honestly the success of the newer generations of ex Disney girls isn’t even correlated to their time on Disney at all. For instance, I don’t even consider artists like Olivia Rodrigo or Sabrina Carpenter as Disney ex acts because they gained success from their music instead of from their Disney shows. By the time they were on Disney, the channel was already declining. Obviously they did gain some following but their Disney shows were not as impactful as prior shows. For instance, so many people didn’t even know Olivia was on Disney when Drivers License was released. Her debut single was the reason she had success. Unlike artists like Selena Gomez or Miley Cyrus who had major success from their Disney shows and then went on to gain bigger success from their music careers.

[@krissyburke5050]

19:10 this reminds me of Tyla dancing during an award show and stopping when she realized she was on camera. People were joking it was because she’s trying to get a Minaj feature and was dancing to Meg the Stallion, but I think it’s just anxiety. When your every public action is scrutinized and you’re famous for entertaining, it must be stressful to dance uninhibited when you’re feeling the music and then noticing you’re randomly being broadcasted to millions of people.

I 💯agree with Zendaya being not a good actress. Or at least a mediocre one. I feel like she does not disappear into most of her characters. And if she does, it’s just another version of Rue or KC. I saw her in Dune and wasn’t impressed :/ Imo she would thrive way more as a comedic actress. She was really funny in KC Undercover and had some funny moments in Euphoria as well. It was a smart idea to use her pretty privilege, red carpet looks and profiting of the disney-nostalgia to get her more exposure. But unfortunately her looks, her fashion and popularity do not match up to her acting abilities.

[@electralexa99]

100%!

[@daraudobong7195]

Exactly!

[@DeeDeeDeeeee]

I get what you’re saying abt Marina’s two different writing styles. It’s either very introspective pop bangers about her personal life, or activism anthems that can sometimes fall over the line into making the listener go “girl alright”. However, “Man’s World” may legitimately be one of her best written/performed/produced songs, and imo is the only time she fully hit the anthemic writing style on the head most likely because it’s also drawing from her experiences as a woman. It was in essence a perfect melding of her two writing and performance styles.

I believe Zendaya excels in a fun role, like her role in KC Undercover. I feel like she had a lot more personality and when it came to her acting now, I think there is a certain demographic that cast people cast her as. From what I have seen her in her roles they are often serious, and I think if she were to do a comedy or something more lighthearted she would excel! I just believe she has the skill but doesn’t have the right role yet. Trust me watch KC Undercover and tell me otherwise (also I only really watched her on that and I h tbh uno she is pretty fun and criticism is welcomed here).

The Imagine Dragons x Kendrick Lamar grammys performance is also one of my top favorite award show performances ever!

I think, relating to the cutting to the audience point, their reactions could be from a completely different moment taken out of context to generate a reaction. You see this all the time in fan edits, etc.

Honestly I think Pitchfork made the BEST critique for Electra Heart! 🤐 I strongly disagree with Electra Heart being Marina's best album, the album is tacky and pointless to me despite a few songs. I've read professional reviews that breakdown the album's flaws - the "concepts" are weak. The corruption of a young American beauty queen is really a trope not a true "character", a trope done by a TV show and even another artist (apparently Desperate Housewives, Lana Del Rey). According to the reviews, Marina doesn't deliver any fresh insights with the tropes on the album, her comments on shallowness are shallow themselves. I agree with them.

The reason disco is divorced from race but country isn't is because disco died and is coming back as opposed to country that has always been thriving and has developed a whole subculture in the time we haven't been paying attention. That subculture happens to have a large racist contingent. For years in racist circles country has been touted as "their music" while disco had pretty much left the conversation (outside of nostalgia).

L + F being your favorite marina album is surely an unpopular opinion chile

Why did we move love that 4 u above free space?

[@KirangopalSingh]

Pri McDonald girl yeah all I ever wanted was another world I love this song I love Valley of the Dolls too

it's so funny to me when people claim that Selena Gomez is irrelevant when she objectively is not She is killing it in acting (Film & TV), killing it as a bussiness woman too, has so many ongoing + upcoming projects, is literally the most followed woman online across all platforms she's just not a pop star anymore but she def is relevant and very successful in many fields and even in music she is still the Disney ex-act with the most streams on Spotify, the most views on KZbin despite music not being her main thing and people listen to her songs bc she has bops not bc of nostalgia as i've seen people claim in this comment section streams-wise Oliva Rodrigo will inevitably surpass her and maybe Sabrina too after the amazing year she's had

[@lauraboredom2168]

also people buy Rare Beauty products bc they are good not bc of nostalgia that makes no sense like idk i love ari but i don't really buy rem beauty bc they don't really do it for me i don't think people will spend their hard-earned money on make up products bc of nostalgia??

Sometimes certain thoughts are better kept in the drafts😂

[@Laveganamacley2210]

L-ctra Heart her second album is Marina's most popular album

[@theloneliestloveliesttime]

The Family Jewels is her best album. Love+ Fear also gets way too much hate lol.
