Sydney, I'm going to start with you, especially curious to hear about your music thoughts.

But first, tell us how you felt about what this movie was doing, trying to do whatever this is.

Yeah.

Well, so here's my thing.

It wasn't clear to me that Mother Mary had dropped Sam specifically.

What I thought happened is that they had a falling out.

Maybe she did drop her.

But the impetus for that was the fact that Sam was not getting credit for her work with Mother Mary.

And to me, that is a much thornier and sort of layered sort of betrayal than just dropping her because

When I think about at least the way in recent years we're now suddenly inundated by these stylists who are working alongside usually actresses, but also pop stars and whatever.

I think especially of Law Roach and Zendaya.

That was in the back of my mind a lot while watching this movie.

And when you add in the layer here that you have a white pop star who's being styled by a Black woman...

And that Black woman is not getting credit for her Vogue shoot.

She says at one point, like, you didn't give me credit.

And so that, to me, felt a little bit more like, oh, I can understand why Stan would be really upset about this.

Like, because there is this sense of, like, I made you.

Or, like, it's not just you.

I have put you on the map.

Am I misreading?
