Weekly Roundup: Jax's podcast recap + Cierra's exit from Love Island & beauty standards + more
Description
This week on Confessionals & Congressionals, we’re unpacking Cierra Ortega’s controversial exit from Love Island USA—was it an overcorrection or just the internet doing too much? We dive into the racial and beauty standards at play and why reality TV still has a long way to go. Read the ABC News article for context. Plus, GQ just roasted the men of The Valley in a now-viral piece about “divorced guy energy” and we are living for it. Read the article.
We also listened to Jax’s new podcast so you don’t have to—he’s joined by his publicist Lori and still lacking all self-awareness. We talk about the infamous Justice 4 Jax account, which we thought was satire until this very moment. Here’s the Reddit thread for the chaos. Also: Janet clears her name on The Viall Files, and we tease a big announcement tied to The Challenge: Untold History.
Hit follow, leave a review, and remember—we’re critiquing edited tv characters, not real people. It's never ok to bully people online.
