Chapter 1: What happened during Camila Cabello's concert?

1345.821 - 1364.195 Claudia Oshry

They shared a screenshot over the weekend showing that just around 30% of the tickets had sold out to the State Farm Arena show. Oh, they spelled State Farm wrong. Oh, that's crazy. Another person asked, why do some singers do this? If you know you can't sell arenas, why do them? Isn't it just extra costs for no reason and embarrassment?

0

1364.595 - 1388.0 Claudia Oshry

However, and then yes, so she played to like a nearly empty arena. Then unlikely man named Mod Sun came to her defense with some fire points. He said, 99% of artists would have canceled the show and put out a mental health statement. She just gained my respect by still performing. That show meant the world to the people in the crowd that night. Empty shows are still shows, he says.

0

1388.28 - 1405.237 Jane Doe

You know what? I actually really agree with him. And to be clear, like I wouldn't be caught dead. Like if like I would. I don't know what the number is, but like when I was on tour, like you would get periodic statistics, like almost every day of how many tickets were sold. And like, you know, you would hope for like 80, 90, but you would still perform.

0

1405.317 - 1426.257 Jane Doe

If it's under like 60 or 50, then you're like, so 30% is really low. And yes, most people would have canceled this and everybody lies. Like, I'm really, I need to take time for my mental health. Like, sure, okay. The fact that she didn't is such a testament to A, like the love she has for her fans and B, like she don't give a fuck. So many, this is such an image obsessed industry.

0

1426.277 - 1430.46 Jane Doe

Like the fact that she did perform, like I actually have enormous respect for her.

1430.84 - 1453.279 Claudia Oshry

I agree. I went on a journey with this story and I'm not going to act like I was bigger than everyone else by being like, oh yikes. And then like- Yeah, no, my initial reaction was like, could not, would not, will never be something I would do. That's just like embarrassing. Especially when people are like, why would you book arenas if you know you can't sell arenas?

1453.299 - 1454.78 Claudia Oshry

That's like what happened with J-Lo. J-Lo.

1454.92 - 1466.906 Jane Doe

It happens sometimes. It does. Like celebrities overestimate their impact. And so you don't really know how many people are going to buy tickets to a tour. You can use analytics and your social media and previous tours, but there's no way to properly know.

1466.926 - 1480.533 Jane Doe

That's like when Olivia Rodrigo did her first tour after she like went viral, she did like Radio City types places, which are big, 5,000, 6,000 people. But for her, people are like, what the fuck is this? So it's almost impossible to perfectly understand unless you're like at the Taylor Swift level.

Chapter 2: Why did Kelly Clarkson start her own record label?

2317.584 - 2334.195 Jane Doe

Oh, oh, you know, Metacritic is like a, it's the Rotten Tomatoes. Tell me what else Metacritic likes. And I will say, I think Metacritic often gets it right. I think Rotten Tomatoes is seriously like, I live on a different planet than the people who work at Rotten Tomatoes. I think Rotten Tomatoes audience score gets it right.

Chapter 3: What are the challenges of being a woman in the music industry?

Chapter 4: How do celebrity concert attendance numbers affect their careers?

Chapter 5: What is the significance of the Super Bowl Halftime Show announcement?

359.0 - 374.354 Jane Doe

I'm like, but like a little one. And my hair actually wasn't dead. It was just like kind of flat. I needed to refresh. And I also made my next appointment, my next two appointments, because I'm thinking I got to plan it out. My hair is growing so quickly, you know, in this pregnant era. Very grateful. So I will be having two haircuts.

0

375.273 - 390.077 Jane Doe

appointments, God willing, God willing, God willing, before I give birth. And I made one of the appointments for like right before I give birth. So I'll have like, maybe like a fire blow out. And then I won't be able to get a haircut for quite some time. So I'm just like, I'm trying to take care of my, I'm trying to get my affairs in order. Yeah, that's good.

0

390.377 - 392.097 Jane Doe

So when you go on a trip, you know, you need to do all your things.

0

393.118 - 404.855 Claudia Oshry

Yes, a haircut pre, I did a haircut pre, it was nice. It's so important. Yeah, plus your hair is growing very fast. So that's great. So two more days where you'll look the same. Yes, exactly.

0

405.375 - 423.719 Jane Doe

I want to talk about hair and birth, if I may, for a minute. Okay. Because I was talking to a lot of my friends who have given birth or are giving birth, and their hair is a thing for them. They want to have a blowout, and it's hard to time. So I saw my friend who just had a baby when she was seriously nine months and a day pregnant, and she had gotten a blowout.

423.739 - 439.932 Jane Doe

I'm like, what are you getting your hair done for? She's like, just in case I go into labor. I'm like, oh. I thought it was kind of crazy, but now I'm like, it's actually really smart. First of all, just to get your hair clean and out of the way. It's washed. It's professionally washed. Two, everybody's taking pictures. While you're not going to look your best, to have shiny hair, Slay.

441.153 - 460.088 Claudia Oshry

You have shiny hair naturally. I don't know. I don't clown on anyone who does it because that's beautiful. I don't yuck anyone's yums. And I'm someone who pictures blow out. It's everything to you. But like, I don't want to be worried about preserving my blowout when I'm in the throes of labor. I'm more of a slick back bun, like you're sweating.

460.108 - 462.389 Jane Doe

And also when you do- A slick back is definitely a good call.

462.609 - 483.974 Claudia Oshry

When you do finally take a shower, like you want it to be a full shower, not just like, oh, got to keep my blowout in. I actually like don't- It doesn't resonate with me, the idea of being, and also like, I don't even want makeup on like when I'm sweating. And also when you do skin to skin with a fresh baby on your face has makeup on it. And not the greatest setting spray in the world.

Chapter 6: Who joined Trisha Paytas' Broadway show?

510.67 - 512.592 Jane Doe

Especially like these little pieces that like curl out from my ear.

0

512.612 - 520.216 Claudia Oshry

It literally does not. No one gets better natural hair than you and Margo. Margo gets really good natural hair. So you guys have the same natural hair?

0

520.516 - 531.963 Jane Doe

No, no, my natural hair has changed. Like, I know what you're thinking. You're thinking of the turdy of high school when I used to literally wake up, go to school. I didn't even brush my hair and it looked like I had a blowout. And people were like, oh my God, how'd you do that? I'm like, I literally woke up like this. And I didn't even take it, like I took it for granted.

0

532.243 - 535.505 Jane Doe

No, shit's not like that anymore, Jackie. Shit has turned dark. You don't even know.

0

536.586 - 544.856 Claudia Oshry

I'm just saying, like, if you want to worry about your hair when you're giving birth, like by all means. I wouldn't.

545.176 - 550.498 Jane Doe

I think I might want to. I think I might want to take on that burden. But again.

550.518 - 558.12 Claudia Oshry

Yeah, and sometimes it's nice to have other things to focus on, you know? Because it might distract from anything.

558.48 - 579.506 Jane Doe

I don't know. I'm about to enter my third week of pelvic floor therapy. So I have a feeling, like, I have a feeling I might crush it, honestly. Like, look at me. Ready? Ready? Tell me, are you Kegeling? Yes, but very specific Kegels. And honestly, it's like, I have to think about it so hard. So you breathe in and relax, which I feel like would be the opposite, right? Do it with me.

579.666 - 606.872 Jane Doe

Breathe in and like relax your vag, like totally un-Kegel, okay? Unclench, ready? While you're breathing in. Exhale and Kegel. Do it again. Exhale and Kegel. That's part of my homework. So I just like my pelvic muscles at some point, like I'm gonna be able to snatch your ponytail with them, okay? Great. Yeah. Great.

Chapter 7: What insights were shared about personal hair care before childbirth?

4326.542 - 4349.411 Claudia Oshry

Gaston called me and they're like oh because she has history with Gaston and they're like well what did he say and she's like he said to keep my name out of his mouth and they're like what do you mean like they're pulling everything out of her and I really just feel like she's trying to like make so many moments she keeps on she keeps saying I have Gaston's name in my mouth I have Gaston's name in my mouth like there's other ways to say that like it's just like stop talking about a little sexual yeah I'm talking about Gaston um

0

4350.646 - 4365.064 Claudia Oshry

So I'm just like trying to like suss out. I feel like she also just is like very much doing the show thing. And that kind of like is irksome to me. Well, so you saying that she was on The Bachelor gives me like a little bit of like red flag, thirsty reality. But then her leaving like kind of negates that. No, I know.

0

4365.144 - 4370.17 Claudia Oshry

And if I, I think someone who's been on The Bachelor who then lives in Charleston is like a girly about town and is like,

0

4370.59 - 4391.14 Claudia Oshry

in the mix right it's like perfect to be on this show like they're ready for reality tv so i'm not gonna like hold that against her it's just like something that i've got to keep in mind and then our other new girl molly who's just such a darling and i'm i know i remember her and i saw that clip of whitney telling her to stop eating the cupcake right and i'm sure i'm not alone in this but like she's in her confession has been saying really sweet things about chep like how

0

4391.74 - 4408.327 Claudia Oshry

Shep would be a dream man. He's very educated and he's very sweet and she would love to end up with a guy like Shep. And right now Shep is dating a girl in the Bahamas who I think this season, and all season he's talking about how he's fallen so fast for her. He could see himself living in the Bahamas just giving it all up like Jimmy Buffett on the beach. He's obsessed with this girl.

4408.947 - 4420.554 Claudia Oshry

And I think from the second half of the season, like things turn really south. I think she's like been using him to get on the show. Like, I think it gets like, I think they take a group trip to the Bahamas, like to see her. And I think it all goes south. So like, I know heartbreak is waiting for Shep.

4420.854 - 4437.904 Claudia Oshry

And then in his confessionals, like he's saying really sweet stuff about Molly because she's a trained tuba player. She plays in the Charleston concert band. They all went to her concert on last night's episode. And she's a former model. She was on America's Next Top Model, which is so crazy. Yeah, I remember. And she was doing her tuba concert. They all came out to support. It was so sweet.

4437.924 - 4453.396 Claudia Oshry

And like nobody does wholesome hobbies like that anymore. And I'm like. No that's really sweet. This storyline of Molly and her tuba. And how she fell back into tuba. Like after modeling didn't work out. Because she has a thyroid issue. So she's gained weight. And she's like also feeling self-conscious. But she's also so confident. And she's got her tuba. And like Shep loves a tuba.

4453.456 - 4469.903 Claudia Oshry

And Shep really respects. Someone who would like appreciate a woman who's like. He's like a well-educated. So these two, I'm telling you, this is how the story ends. Shep and Molly, like I ship so hard. I think, I think they'll also see what each other is saying about them on the show. Cause like it's really starting in an earnest way.
