This week we look at the #girlboss to end them all, Sophia Amoruso, the founder of NastyGal clothing and then Girlboss Media. We look at the strange phenomenon of her rise to fame and how quickly her businesses have failed in the years after it. We also get distracted by the monopoly of fast fashion and how the girlboss seems to be on the way out of popularity. Pop culture moments of the week include Jeff Bezos flying in a rocket, Gabbie Hanna still isn't sorry, Brittok drama and Britney throwing shade at Jamie Lynn via instagram!
