Nardwuar interviews Sabrina Carpenter

I'm not a huge fan of her music (yes, Espresso is undeniably catchy), but, I get the same impression. The fact that she chose to do a pastiche'y Carol Burnett'esque comedy performance on this year's Grammys made me really like her. She obviously doesn't take herself too seriously... even during her big, breakout year. Seems like a good egg.

She shouted out Patsy Cline, ELO, and Xanadu in the first seven minutes. I approve.

She is infinitely more likable than her peer Chappell Roan, aka the Missouri circus clown cunt who knows nothing about music and whose entire personality is "DRAG QUEEEEEEN!!!!" Also, I didn't expect her to have as low of a speaking voice as she does.

She seems surprisingly well-adjusted for being a former Disney Channel star. Also, she, her sister, and her best friend in the interview have shockingly good taste for gen Z kids (the Leonard Cohen and Stereolab fandom surprised me).

Chappell Roan’s music is far superior to this stripper. It’s Roan’s personality that’s a big fail.

R5 I agree with you. Chappell is horrid though as a person. Sabrina is much less sanctimonious and (surprisingly), unlike Chappell, seems to have a pretty good grasp on pop music history. Chappell was embarrassing in her Nardwuar segment.

I love Nardwuar. He's more famous with the younger kids who grew up on YouTube, the newer artists are really sweet to him. It's been a while since his shtick confused somebody and they responded badly to it.

R7 it's nice to see younger generations appreciating him. He is one of Canada's national treasures and a true one of a kind. I remember him interviewing Sonic Youth, and they were their typical "too cool for this" selves, completely rude and borderline bullying him. It's been awhile since I've watched that interview, but I recall Lee Ranaldo especially being a fucking asshole. I never looked at them the same again. Courtney Love was one of the few people I remember who seemed to "get" Nardwuar back in those early days. The two of them had good chemistry and their interviews were always fun.

She's insufferable and overrated. Her aunt is the voice actress for Bart Simpson. They are trying so hard to push Sabrina and make her into the new Madonna. Not gonna happen.

So sick of this horny oversexualized dwarf in big blonde wigs, white walker blue contacts, Donald Trump bronzer and tons of highlighter singing to kids about how she loves being a walking pocket pussy, fetishizing her proportions (or lack thereof) and pantomiming to them in explicit detail all of her favorite sex positions. She's everything wrong with the music industry today.
