Summary

With Chappell Roan, Sabrina Carpenter, Billie Eilish, Olivia Rodrigo, Renee Raap, Charlie XCX and Taylor Swift dominating the headlines this summer there's so much to get into. Who is horny for who? What does "sapphic" mean? Why is the media sleeping on Tinashe and Normani? How did Chappell get so big so fast? And are our pop girlies feuding? Not to mention... do we miss feuds? I think we do?? Producer Kristina Lopez and Associate Producer Jerrin Padre join Chelsea for a retrospective, celebrating how queer and empowered our artists are now, and just how much has changed since 2004, when icons like Britney Spears, Christina Aguilera, Avril Lavigne, Mandy Moore and Pink were our reigning divas.
