  • Holding a grudge Met Gala episode

    I’ve been following Renée since Covid and I really loved her content but watching this episode, I felt terrible. It just felt like a bunch of mean girls being absolutely horrendous to people. The comment about Sabrina Carpenter being so small…Was insane. That’s just her body. What can she do about that? I really hope that the next episode has a more positive tone.
