Gen Z Child Stars: Misogyny, Billie Eilish & Jojo Siwa
Content Warning: discussion of self-harm and sexual assault
This week we look at today's child stars compared to the child stars of the 80s and 90s. Holly discusses Billie Eilish and her immense success and questions whether she is as radical as everyone thought she was. Hannah explains how Jojo Siwa subverts sexualisation by dressing 'too young'. We explore how they both subvert the expectations of child stardom and discuss whether it is any better for famous children and teens now than it was 20 years ago. We also share out favourite pop culture moments from the week, like the worrying David Dobrik allegations, a cult recruiting on TikTok, Megan Markle vs the Royal family and Jonah Hill's incredible Instagram post!
