Britney Spears, Chrissy Teigen And How The Stories Around Famous Women Changed in 2021

On the show today…

2021 saw the narratives around female celebrities change like never before.

It was the year the Free Britney movement captivated the world and Paris Hilton’s legacy and rise to fame was told in a whole new, and much darker, way than ever before.

We started asking questions about what really happened to Amanda Bynes and took a closer look at why the world had turned against Lindsay Lohan.

But in a year where we obsessed about celebrity ‘bad’ girls having redemption arcs, we also became hungry for a different type of story. A story where former Hollywood 'good’ girls like Chrissy Teigen and Ellen DeGeneres were held to account and we appeared to revel in their downfalls.

In today’s episode, we discuss how the stories around famous women have changed in 2021and what happens next.
