What’s a CD player? 

[NUTELLA 16,534]

I'll wait for the CD player with fur

[PartySick 165,176]

I have to wonder when/if pop stans will get sick of being extorted  

Or if pop stars realize how damaging garbage like this is to their reputations

I'm 70 and I find it absurd. It's a CD player (you at least know what's a CD. yes ?) looking like a mini vinyl record player. Talk about weird nostalgia...

Even tho we are in the streaming age, CD players are still used everywhere. I don't really get what you're saying here...

No, they meant a seedy player - this variant of Sabrina's album comes with a douche who seems charming at first but you have to buy him dinner and he doesn't want to go to a cheap restaurant, and he wants to be picked up and when you get to the restaurant you can clearly tell he's barely invested in anything you have to say, and after he asks you to get him an Uber home cuz he feels too tired and unwell, but he says he wants to hang out again soon and then he block you on all socials...

Hence the price tag

I have to agree.

I'll always love Gaga but there is nothing that will justify the pricing on a lot of her merch. For example, a pair of shorts have absolutely no business being over $100.

That's so very Aespa of her

Cringe but this is literally how brands like Gucci work. 99% of the cost is just the logo lmao

I appreciate the idea of having some "functional" merch that actually does something instead of just generic clothes with a logo. But the price is just stupid and so is anyone that pays that amount for it -_-
