**AT ONE POINT I SAY DEMI LOVATO PRESENTED HAYLEY KIYOKO WITH HER BILLBOARD AWARD. IT WAS LAUREN JAUREGUI! THAT WAS MY MISTAKE AND THERE ARE TOO MANY FILES FOR ME TO FIX THE EPISODE BUT IT IS NOT DEMI LOVATO!**

Today, is episode 50 of Rebel Hearts. Wow. I had Pat by my side as we talked about a lot of things. Ariana Grande in general but the Thank U, Next video, the really poorly written article (now taken down) about how she was anti queer, anti trans, and her "heterosexual narrative", her being told she's milking Mac Miller's death, and her Billboard "Woman of the Year" speech. We also talked about the 2019 Grammy nominations and it's diversity (finally) and why I think some of the noms were strange. We also talked about Poppy and Grimes and also touched on Matty Healy's comment about how there isn't misogyny in rock n roll and then his apology.

Thank you for 50 episodes. Here's to more.
