Mandy Moore, Pop Star Overcrowding & Redhead Gap
At 11:12 · chapter starts 10:20
After walking past Mandy Moore at the awards show, Paige is moved to make a sweeping societal argument: as millennials, they are not giving Mandy Moore nearly enough credit for her impact. Moore was Paige's first pop star, predating the full Britney-and-Christina era in her personal timeline. Hannah responds with her theory of blonde market saturation — Jessica Simpson, Britney Spears, and Christina Aguilera left no lane for a fourth blonde pop star, and Mandy simply needed to dye her hair red. From there, both wonder why there has never been a dominant redhead pop star, noting that Chappell Roan is the closest thing they've ever had — but neither quite classifies her as a traditional pop star.
Three million people reportedly descended on lower Manhattan for the Knicks victory parade. Paige's first thought: nobody has a job? Her second thought: cigars and the loneliness epidemic.
