Jealous Much, Meta?

Hello pals and a very special New Harry Styles week to all who celebrate. After some chit-chat around As It Was, Ashley Tisdale’s new bookshelf, and The Slap we get into a discussion around Zoe Kravitz’s push from her pedestal. After sharing her opinion on the Will Smith V Chris Rock saga, people on Twitter came for the actress and it girl savagely. This makes us ask why we hold women of colour to higher standards than other celebs and why it seems there can only be one Black celebrity in the zeitgeist at one time. In our next topic, we discuss tech reporter Taylor Lorenz’s story for The Washington Post (also, you should follow her TikTok account @taylorlorenz). In an exclusive over the weekend, Taylor shared this article titled ‘Facebook paid GOP firm to malign TikTok’ where she exposed the republican firm Targeted Victory for trying to sabotage TikTok. We explain the story and discuss the desperation of Meta trying to cling to cultural relevancy. For recommendations, Jas shares this opinion piece by Abbir Dib for The Age titled ‘Pandemic and social media making 20-somethings feel old’ while Maggie recommends King Richard, the movie about Venus and Serena Williams. Chat next week! xoxoJas and Mags Hosted on Acast.
