Amanda & Amber are joined by friends and performers Hayden Johnson & Jordan Jones to discuss SUPERSTARDOM: what makes a star, our favorite media that depicts the road to stardom, making yourself smaller for fake friends, and the dehumanization of being put on a pedestal while being black & excellent. Also discussed: Zendaya, The Greatest Showman, Camp Rock, and Cheetah Girls <3


(note: this was recorded pre-Challengers came out, which is why we don’t discuss it at all, girl)
