We love Billie Eilish (sorry for the clickbait title), but conversations around her paparazzi shots have gotten out of hand. We read from this Buzzfeed article by Scaachi Koul about it. Oh, and little Timmy Chalamet responded to those kissing photos with Lily-Rose Depp.

You might have seen the UK ads about creative industries floating around after UK chancellor Rishi Sunaks' comments about how creatives should retrain. Though the ads have now been fact checked, Tristan Cross wrote an op-ed for Dazed on why culture and the arts are so important. 

Danielle Bernstein aka We Wore What has come under fire for suing The Great Eros after they sent her a cease and desist notice. Diet Prada covered the drama and The Fashion Law provided us with a legal viewpoint.

This week, Jasmine recommends an opinion column by rapper and entertainer Megan Thee Stallion on the New York Times. Titled “Why I Speak Up For Black Women,” Jasmine also recommends watching the accompanying video.

Maggie recommends The Claudia Kishi Club mini-documentary on Netflix. Directed by Sue Ding, this 17 minute short film revolves around interviews with Asian creatives and their experiences with the character of Japanese-American Claudia Kishi from The Baby-Sitters Club.

Our jingle, editing and production is by India Raine. You can email us at [email protected], find us on Instagram at @cultureclubpod, or on our personal accounts at @jasmineeskye and @yemagz.

Love,

Maggie & Jasmine
