Misogyny in Hollywood: Britney, Kim, Taylor, and Meghan Markle
Show Notes

In this episode, Stephanie and Rebbecca discuss how misogyny is at the root of media stories about celebrities. They talk about the Framing Britney documentary and how Britney Spears was degraded by interviewers and the media, leading her to have a breakdown. They also discuss how Paris Hilton and Kim Kardashian is always remembered for their sex tapes, even though they have proven themselves to be successful business women, and how people judge Taylor Swift for writing songs about ex-boyfriends, even though most artists do the same without backlash. Also, the misogynistic and racist depiction of Meghan Markle in the British media was the catalyst for the Duchess and Prince Harry to leave the royal family and spill the tea to Oprah.
