It kills me how much of these recaps are (reboot) (reboot) (prequel) (continuation of series after 10 years) (reboot)
It's because the number of decent writers has gone down, combined with the fact that the entertainment industry doesn't want to pay writers what they're worth.
@@Sunshine-zm1fx plus, people just get hyped when it's nostalgia baits
I love the sequels … 30 years later. Like no thanks
Kim Kardashian said she wouldn’t use privilege to get her kids into college. Yet she’ll do it to get her daughter a spot in musical theatre, which was essentially taken from kids who worked years just to get such an huge audition.
@K.C-2049 I just think think its ironic for her to say that and then put her daughter in this position. Because although she didn't buy her daughter into a spot for college, she still did the same thing of using privilege to leverage her daughter to getting a huge gig that she didn't even work for, let alone audition. And take it from kids who've done this their whole lives and actually could have benefited from the role.
@K.C-2049 Wow. Narc meant a completely different thing in my day. (I'm old, btw.)
like, when did Kim ever keep her word
@@Sunshine-zm1fx I had the same thought lol (am also old)
why are people blaming Kim? Kanye is the music guy its clear HE pulled the strings
charles leclerc being in a modern gurls video is so funny to me
She’s covered f1 in a lot of these recaps, looks like she’s a fan!
i'm just happy she's (maybe) an f1 fan
Its so funny to me that charles is now part of the pop culture😂
@@dirtpancakesoh wait seriously 😭 do you remember which ones? i only tune into these things randomly LMFAO. thank for letting me know
time stamp please? 🥺
It’s crazy how Ice T calls Lenny weird when he’s quite literally been apart of a show that can show us the dangers of lustful and sick people
He’s also calling himself out for being a hoe
Facts
He should mind his business
“It’s amazing what you can accomplish once you stop concentrating on other people’s lives… And work on your own.” - Ice T 7/13/20
Forget watching the actual news, I get my monthly happenings from Tessa and Modern Gurlz.
That I could agree
I know this is supposed to be a supportive comment and nothing more but that's a really embarrassing thing to post. You really should not rely solely on one single TH-cam account to tell you the news, regardless of what that entails. I hope you're not seriously doing that.
@@cynicismIncarnatebut they don’t rely on just one TH-cam channel lol, they rely on two 😌😇
@@cynicismIncarnate it's a joke. Don't take everything seriously
I know this is a joke but the fact that there are actually people that do this is sad and pathetic.
How did i miss the return of totally spies?!?
It started in France.
@@brandoniswhoiamit’s actually Canadian!
although eurovision was mentioned im surprised no mention about joost klein's disqualification and the general protest of multiple artists of israel's participation that lead to joost getting a huge popularity boost
exactly. And no mention about BlockOut2024 that happened because after Met Gala that they did mentioned
@@zmarzlinaeveryone was talking about the met not because of the fashion persay but the block out, why was it not mentioned then
I need you to know you’re a pop culture historian the internet moves so fast so when ever i get recommended older videos I’m so shocked and what I’ve forgotten and how honestly non-consequential it was the internet is wild
i'm pretty sure there was a brief mention of the kendrick drake beef in last months pop culture video, but i'm surprised it wasn't mentioned in this month at all bc that's when it blew up.
Poor Taylor Momsen, I hope that she'll make a speedy recovery. If I had a nickel for every time a famous musician got bitten by a bat while performing, then I'd have two nickeks. Which isn't a lot, but it's odd that it's happened twice.
honestly, as scary as the bite is, it couldn’t of been a more perfect person to bite. i mean, cmon, she’s literally a vampire 😭❤️🩹🩸
Who's the other one?
@@kittykittybangbang9367 Ozzy Osborne bit the head of a bat during a live performance in 1982, thinking that it was fake. He was rushed to hospital shortly afterwards.
Endless shrimp is not the reason, it’s because the private equity firm that bought RL sold off all the land at the restaurants locations and required them to rent the land back to continue running the restaurants … which was too expensive and sent them to bankruptcy.
Was looking for someone to mention this. Endless shrimp didn’t not bankrupt Red Lobster, capitalism did
May was 3 lifetimes wow
fr how did I miss all of this?!
Just the term “Fully conscious baby” always makes me laugh
What kind of deranged psycho would punch Steve Buscemi??? The man is a sweetheart! So messed up.
@@fibonacci2112I think you're confusing him with Christopher Walken
Who needs the news, when I can just watch ModernGurlz?
Every other media: Depends but is like TH-cam algorithm, randomized
Eurovision: Huge iceberg because of EBU standards, Israel’s participation, Joost’s disqualification, and some people upset of Nemo winning since they wanted Baby Lasagna to be crowned instead
May felt like an eternity!
i do think that the try guys did a much better job at releasing their streamer - they are still on youtube and will be putting out the same content that they always have. the streamer is only for additional content i.e. new shows. i will definitely miss eugene, even though he has been uninvolved for a long time. he felt like the most compelling member and I loved watching his journey.
The red lobster thing is wayy more complicated, worth it’s own video really
I do dislike repeating the nonsense that endless shrimp had anything to do with it
but the engagment news !!!!!!! I was tearing up reading about it!! Supernatural has been its own universe of fires and trainwrecks, bUT TO KNOW THAT OUR BOYS FOUND LOVE !!!! MY GOOODDDD!!! My Tumblr shaped heart just burst!!!
I had a full record-scratch moment. Congrats to them!!!
i had to replay that moment bc somehow i didn't hear about that from anywhere else. that's wild
Things that happened in May I remember: Back to Black came out in the US and bombed at the box office, the Michael Jackson movie finished filming, Paul Mescal is being considered to play a Beatles member in the Beatles movie, Apple Music’s 100 Greatest Albums of All Time, Diddy beating up Cassie, Justin Bieber being a first time dad, and Baby Reindeer premieres on Netflix and creates a social media phenomenon.
Yep, I'm surprised that Baby Reindeer nor Back to Black were mentioned, though maybe they're trying to cover international news.
Baby Reindeer and Back to Black were talked about for a whole month straight, especially Baby Reindeer. I feel like the people who talked about Back to Black mostly talked about the director and the social media backlash that ensued. It also created a discussion on biopics about female celebrities and showing trauma porn and relationship woes as opposed to their talent.
Back to Black bombed in the US, but did decently internationally. As such, it’s not a flop, it turned a profit of about $15 million.
And somehow forgot the whole 2024 block out
Nothing is funnier than Charles being amongst all the music people and actors, like that's my little pop girlie fr.
What did I miss? I only knew like three things that happened in the world of pop culture. The rest was news to me. Thanks for keeping me in the loop (:
i feel so chronically online knowing most of these eventss
I love these recaps. I always miss about 90% of it in real time so this is a really nice condensed way to catch back up 😂
the qualifying for the monaco gp may as well have determined who won the race. still a deserved win for charles though, him being mentioned in a video alongside twice and aespa out of all people is kinda surreal to me. not to mention said video has spinning nemo as the intro.
other stuff i remember: stray kids and lewis hamilton at the met gala since i mentioned kpop and f1, min hee jin winning against hybe (which i don't know how to feel about that just yet) and FUCK THE EBU (HAIIIIII :3)
How could you not talk about Bella Hadid's ICONIC Keffiyeh dress!!!! There is NO WAY you missed it.
They’re clearly trying to avoid talking abt Palestine
These scratch an itch in my brain! You cover all the topics im interested in and you cut to the chase, loves it
There are so many ways that the genocide in Gaza has impacted pop culture in the past month. The met gala, digital guillotine, Hinds Hall by Macklemore, Bella Hadids dress, etc. I’ve been an MG fan for years and it’s my go-to source for pop culture news, but at this point I might need to reconsider. The silence is speaking volumes 😢
Exactly. It's so odd that she never mentioned the met gala backlash, it even drew parallels to the fucking hunger games. This is the world we live in
She’s never mentioned the genocide once on her channel. It makes me think that she has personal ties to Israel. I can’t see a reason to not mention it, especially since this channel doesn’t shy from speaking about politics, and what’s happening in Gaza is much bigger, and more important than that.
Charles Leclerc made it 😍
Yayyy tysm for mentioning TWICE and aespa! K-pop is mostly ignored my pop culture channels, and I'm so happy your bring light to them! Thank you! 🥰
why did you choose not to mention the reaction to the met gala and Haley?
When she says how do i apply to Pop culture Jeopardy. "Me too sister".
i’ve been subscribed for a while and an f1 fan for longer so every time f1 is mentioned i get so excited
forgot to include that Megan’s song was also majorly influenced by Boa Hancock from one piece
Meghan and Sabrina Carpenter just confirmed they albuns are coming. Camila Cabello and Lil Nas X released a song and the mv is one of my favorites from this year tbh. Katy Perry changed the visual identity of her social medias and Gaga also confirmed her new album is coming. Jojo Siwa threatens to release a new song. Also a Scooby Doo live action series was confirmed, but i think this was in April? I don't remember.
"threatens" 😭😭😭😭
@@mauiani I meannn....
I love that Jojo's music is so bad that her announcing that she's putting out new music is a "threat". 😭 Amazing.
how is the block out 2024 not mentioned ?
Right??????
This monthly video is the only source of news I need
People who wake up from comas in the future are really gonna appreciate these videos.
Also for the nerds:
Critical Role announced their own streaming service too around the same time as the try guys.
And since it was after the Watcher situation on both it was very put with heavy worry
Though happily they're *also* going to continue releasing the full episodes on their TH-cam channel, so no one will lose any access they currently have to the show.
Girl, I appreciate you but I am surprised you didn't mention the rap battle between Kendrick Lamar and Drake. I only ever listened to NF who is outlier in the rap community but if this beef washed up on my shore when I don't really listen to either of them but on the course of trying to piece together what was happening and understanding it, it turned out be epic on a mass scale, you missing out on something spectacular!
You forgot the contreversy created by Israel’s presence in the Eurovision leading to several people boycotting it.
Also Taylor Swift beginning her European leg of the Eras Tour.
I’m so surprised you haven’t gotten the ad to apply for Jeopardy. In ATL we get them on every Instagram scroll.
I wish you had said *why* those students walked out on Jerry Seinfeld.
She's not interested in that, not even talking about the met gala outrage and the digital guillotine and the whole Eurovision-joost-israel
Same. She mentioned the reason for the TINY amount of backlash Eminem apparently got for the Megan Thee Stallion getting shot reference that no one knows or cares about, but she didn't mention why people walked out on Jerry Seinfeld when it was for a much more valid and important reason that the general public cares about more?
You know what's even more terrible that Dan's suing Quiet on Set? It's the fact that if he wins the series will be taken down from every streaming site which means Drake Bell's story will be gone, all the stuff about Jason and Brian and other child actors stories that have nothing to do with Dan 😐
Mentioned met gala but forgot to say how people were mad at celebrities for attending it and not speaking up. Oh wait… you covered it talking about the dresses and nothing else too
This!!!!!!!
???????
Speaking up about what? Also, the Met Gala is a fashion event, the dresses are the point.
Too many of these updates were announcements for reboots… when will this hell end
EDIT: sorry, reboots AND prequels. How could I forget 🤦🏼♀️
I’ve been on deployment, in the middle of the sea for the last 8 months so I really appreciate this series!
Digital guillotine missing from the May recap
Oh no they don't talk about politics!!!! You know, but trump is not politcs ig
They just dance around the subject and pretend like nothing happened while it was the biggest event of the month
Yea and that there was the bombings that killed palestinian refugees the same day of the met. Hence why thousands of people protested on the streets outside of the met and kickstarted the blockout
I just go to these videos for all things pop culture that I missed or couldn’t care less at the time 😤😤 Goated content !
What about Bella Hadid wearing the iconic keffiyeh dress from Michael and Hushi's February 2001 runway show to the cannes festival? The security guard was mentioned, but not the fact that speaking up for Palestine was banned. It's really dysoptian to talk about pop culture as if what's happening in the world isn't currently affecting it. Free Palestine 🇵🇸
ikr? I'm sick of these pop culture channels dancing around the subject, like at this point it takes more effort to pretend like nothing's happening.
Im not asking them to talk about politics, but they DID mentioned Trump so ig politics are only sometimes acceptable????? And she mentioned Met Gala but not following BlockOut2024 that happend bc of it, that yes was political, but I would argue it was way more pop cultural . AND she talked briefly about eurovision but not about Joost disqualification that happened bc he stood up against Israel.
as in politics are sometimes part of pop culture, whilst the blockout2024 and event at eurovision were far more pop cultural that something Trump did
@@zmarzlina 100000%
Yessss!!!! They just like to dance around the subject! Isn't this series supposed to be object?
"ah, it was the endless shrimp that did us in, guys..."
X-D
you mention trump but not Bella's keffiyeh dress at the Cannes festival..?? girly what.
i still don’t understand y they don’t make these videos longer, i would sooo watch like a 15 or even 20 min vid where they went more into detail about the topics
All the chronically online people searching for the jeopardy sign up
Love these recaps, please keep em coming 🙌🤩
Thanks for the updates!
all eyes on rafah
I'm so disappointed, the video completely glossed over it as if it wasn't the biggest event of the month with blouckout2024
Not the place. This isn't Twitter. I'm not here for political news. I'm here for celebrity gossip.
@@kimia1664nope, she mentioned so many political news before, especially if it’s tied or affected celebrity culture
What about blockout 2024? And the whole mess with the met galla and rafah🍉 getting attacked at the same time? Convenitly left out i see even though it was such an event
The what now ?
In what world is Kendrick bodying Drake not on here?
What happened to originality in hollywood? Obviously there have been many original films and tv shows coming out which is fantastic, but the remakes, reboots, sequels, prequels, adaptations etc. are taking over. I feel like every recap video I watch always includes at least 3 different films coming out based on preexisting material.
This felt a little hollow when watching I'm ngl. You mentioned moments like the met gala, eurovision but failed to talk about the major protests for Palestine people were doing to counter these events and they were pretty significant considering the it ended up on the news and the protest/ anger people had towards the met gala led to the celebrity block list. I feel like if you're covering these events, you have the responsibility to talk about those moments too. This doesn't feel like a pop culture recap and more what celebs and big corp like disney have been doing up since last month.
This channel is starting to feel like a selliut. Blockout2024 was the biggest event of the month yet not even a mention
I'm so disappointed I used to love this channel
Isn’t blockout a dying trend already?
Right lol @@Indianabagpuss
I'm so happy that you put Charles Leclerc😂❤💥
i live for these pls never stop
why is there no mention of gaza
Charles being in a pop culture recap video next to Kim K, Aespa, Sabrina Carpenter and other celebrities just feels so random and surreal
Glad you mentioned Switzerland winning Eurovision! At least in my corner of the world it was a big deal.
never thought id see f1 get mentioned on this channel,,, really happy about it tho ^^
I love these videos - so fun to listen and watch along to!
Correction: trump votes in FL and their voting laws refer back to the state of the conviction, NY which allows felons to vote as long as they're not incarcerated at the time.
Since I deleted my twitter account at the end of 2023 I've felt like nothing has happened... the world was strangely quiet
not a single mention of gaza
Right?? Like talking about the met and Eurovision without talking about gaza, blockout2024 and Joost disqualification because he stood up against Israel, really? That's what everyone was talking about
@@messymess7822 His disqualification had nothing to do with Israel. There was an incident between him and a production crew member.
Read the title. "Pop Culture Recap". Do you consider the Gaza bombing a "pop culture" circumstance??
ofc not but it's still distasteful to ignore the most important thing happening in the world rn and focus on mostly silly news
also they couldve talked about the celebrity blockout following the met gala
1:37 I think we can all say that we saw that coming ! 🤣🤣🤣
how did i just learn that there is a hercules show?
Can't wait for the Totally Spies fashion retrospective since the new season is out XD
why are all tv shows and movies mentioned here ONLY remakes, prequels and sequels 😭😭😭 when will it be clear that we the audience have been wanting unique new iconic films for years now
The cheezeit Crunchwrap falls short. The thing absorbs the beef too fast and gets soggy with no crunch 😢
My highlight every month!
Never would have thought I'd catch Lord Percival in one of these 😂
Didnt people try to cancel the met gala too?
No she forgot to mention it, also the digital guillotine, why the students walked out, why joost klein was disqualified, cannes film festival, eurovison bannning the Palestinian flag..etc but no trump must be mentioned
if i'm not wrong, this is actually billie's 4th album, not 3rd. "don't smile at me", "when we all fall asleep where do we go", and "happier than ever" came before this one :)
don’t smile at me was an EP :)
So I was asleep for most of May apparently. Wtf 😂
Love these monthly recaps
As someone who has no energy to catch up with the latest pop news, thank you sm for this! 🤣
So one line is all that eurovision gets? This channel is now labeled as american.
There was so much controversy (joost klein disqualifiqation , israel compeeting) and there could have been at least one more information to it
I always look forward to your videos, keep it up!!
Wow, May was a busy monrh, I missed a lot!
Meagan Thee Stallion's song Boa is a direct reference to the One Piece Character Boa Hancock
Friends, i got engaged 🥹
I know its not part of the news but i wanted to share the news w fellow Modern Girls
Also I went to the Megan concert in Bmore. Lost my voice 😂
Looks like it's going to be a wild summer. Stay tuned!
No mention of the celebrity blackout and all the backlash the met got? Not even mentioning Palestine when talking abt the students walking out on Jerry Seinfeld smh…
Finally someone said something!!!!!
this weirded me out too, i'm glad you mentioned it
I noticed this too. It’s cowardly
My husband watches your monthly recaps, and he loves it. He says you're "informative," and he never watches girly channels
What about blockout 2024?
PLEASE PLEASE 🥺 WE NEED STYLE ANALYSIS ON SCREAM QUEENS
I don’t know who half of these people are, but I had fun watching the video
The thumbnail be like “ and it is all yellow”
I just want your opinion on the legally blonde prequel series. I cannot imagine something like that working if the main protagonist decided to pursue law after her undergrad in canon
Wait, Totally Spies is back?!??
Nothing about Palestine? I know it’s pop culture but to not include the attacks on Rafah during the MET gala or the digital guilliotine block outs caused by celebrities ignoring the issue or WHY there were walkouts during Jerry Sienfield’s speech… weird
but she mentioned something Trump, that wasn’t pop cultural at all, purely political, whilst the BlockOut2024 and disqualification of a Eurovision contestant was ofc political but mostly pop cultural
@@zmarzlina you’re so right! Even weirder
Yessssssssssss
Curb your entitlement. She has mentioned Palestine in the previous recap videos, she can't mention it every month since October. Get tf over yourself weirdo
Exactly I was so surprised she didn't mention it
You forgot to mention that the met gala and Hayley Bayley sparked the “digitine” movement.
