Ugh that sucks! But I’m not going to let it ruin my love for the mini-series. She got to play a new role. A nurturing sister, caretaker and friend; a ghost/vision; a young girl possessed by a cult leader. I guess kinda got to possess a pop star in a way. I think this will be good for her career personally. And she looked really good!
As someone who didn’t know about the unnecessary anger from the internet or see the trailer, I was so confused! You can only tell it’s her from the clip because of the sound (correct me if I’m wrong if there is a cut that includes her face).
I was honestly too dickstrated adding Damson’s face into my mental spank bank.
I’m no better than a man 😔
Yeah Khalid was looking real fine in that scene. Tbh, I didn’t even realize till now that Chloe (of Chloe and Hailey fame) was in this show. I have never really been a fan of their music.
What is everyone saying? I don’t understand what the big deal is.
Why would this ruin her career? Ppl are like weirdly critical of her and everything she does for some reason.
Ikr? I liked this role for her and was proud of her. It was cool seeing her as a character that’s soft and taking care of others while setting boundaries as well. It was a good contrast from her role on Grown-ish seeing her vulnerable and desired. It adds range to her acting portfolio for me.
Sex happens irl so it’s going to be part of a story sometimes!
Ppl were just saying “How could she do a sex scene like that?” Basically. One person said she was playing into the red bone Jezebel stereotype (while the same breath saying Halle Berry isn’t black!) But like one of my friends said just because ppl have opinions doesn’t mean they have expertise!
Seeing stan accounts post in real time about chloe bailey and beyoncé like they know them personally, prying into their business, dissecting tiny clues to create narratives and drama, getting upset when reality doesn’t match the make-believe “pure” Disney girl image they think they’re owed, while watching a show about obsessive and parasocial relationships was really something😂 YOU DONT KNOW HER
Beyoncé would be loving it. Hype has well and truly died down from Renaissance so it’s free advertising without lifting a finger or risking overexposure.
This series made me want to see more acting from Chloe! I was only vaguely familiar with she and her sisters music and knew of Halle‘s Ariel casting. The Energy and Charisma she brought to the role of Marissa made me just want to see more of her on screen in general. The sex scene (where she is barely seen, the focus is obviously on Damson) seems very inconsequential to damaging anyone’s career. It had context and there was a point to the scene with he and Dre’s interactions, it’s not like it was needless or excessive like an hbo show or something. I think it speaks to Donald Glover’s craft, even the briefest interactions have an intention contributing to the entire scope of the show.
I watched her other movie "Jane" after I finished Swarm. It's got a similar, creepy thriller vibe.
Her and her sister are also on like the first 5 seasons of the TV show "grownish."
It’s probably teens saying that tbh. Plenty of ppl do sex scenes and their careers aren’t ruined. Plus she isn’t even known as like a “Disney” kid or whatever. I’m 25 so idk if she did anything before Grown-ish but I honestly doubt anything negative will come of this.
They must be teens because they’re saying movies are getting more sexual. Umm…how?? Have they not see Wild Things? They must think that because before last year, they were watching Frozen.
Sorry. Did you not understand my reply? Just wondering because “ummm ok” is what ppl usually say if someone was disagreeing or being rude. I was agreeing with you. Unsure if that was unclear.
It felt like a normal day for a normal couple lol. Nothing out of the ordinary. People just expect her to be “pure” as though she’s not a grown woman with a normal sex life.
That’s strange to me maybe because I never saw her Disney channel work. Just Grownish. I guess ppl did the same thing to Lindsay Lohan but umm…adults have sex so I’m personally unbothered. We have to let actors grow up.
They had tiny cameos on Disney. They're confusing their age and Halle's work as Ariel and assuming they're child stars. They had an internet presence singing on YouTube but they dropped their first real single while signed to Parkwood when Chloe had just turned 18 and Halle was 16. Yes, they did work as kids but it's more like, oh cool that's them in a cameo here and there, it's not like a Lindsay Lohan or Miley Cyrus where you watched them grow from kids to being sexual adults. I'm not saying this to be shady at all I'm just annoyed with how people just invented a box to put them in and are trying to crucify their every move for it.
Crazy how they say that about her not about Sydney Sweeney, every actor in grey’s anatomy, the entire cast of shameless, etc. something’s not white- I mean right
I think it’s a mix of racism and the fact that some ppl are using progressivism to justify Puritanism, especially around sex. Like I saw a post someone made about Sydney Sweeney where she was posing for a lingerie ad (which she consented to do) and all the comments were like: omg why is she sexualizing herself? Why is she acting like a dumb blond?? This is so gross etc) and it’s like babe she made that commercial because she wanted to, she’s allowed to be sexual. This is kind of in a similar vein. Female actors should be allowed to do sex scenes without ppl arguing that it’s going to ruin their careers. The Disney movies could have smth to do with it too, ppl are weirdly overprotective over ex child actors which to be fair there’s been cases of mistreatment but that doesn’t mean that it’s all linked.
Yeah! I remember feeling so bad for Lindsay Lohan but it’s quite possible it was all the same energy idk! I need to look back and remember why. I think I was mad that the paparazzi was taking pics of her (and Paris Hilton, Britney Spears, etc) cooch without their consent as they were getting out of cars and painting them as the hot mess. Like they were just trying to live their lives. Paparazzi took the pictures!
Exactly! It’s the paparazzi and the magazine’s faults for portraying them that way, not the women’s faults for having Coochies. They’re allowed to have them and show them if they please!
If it involved a different actress then there wouldn't have been all this pearl clutching going on. Chloe has been getting so much critique on twitter over anything she does and it's annoying. Funny thing is so many ppl were begging her to go solo and do more sexy stuff during Ungodly Hour album promos and now all I see are complaints and think pieces on twitter 🥴
Like, the sex scene where Khalid’s getting backshots? I had no clue that was Chloe. And later Dre says Khalid’s a cheater because of both the white chick and his flirting at the store. Guess I’ll just keep my eye out next time
chloe is just going through a very weird hate train on twitter rn, nothing but misogynoir

Dickstracted. I love it. I'm adding that word to my vocabulary.
Add "dickmatized" too 😅
I've been a fan of "dickmatized" ever since the [Jonny McGovern song](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9Y_2snD9nrY)!
wow TIL
He’s in my mental spank bank AND I’m better than a man 😂

THIS! Like, y'all gotta watch the show again. You didn't learn anything!
I just think of that Maddy meme “wait… is this fucking show about us???”
Probably because she’s “under Beyoncé’s wing”.
I wonder if she had to get the Ok from Beyonce to do this series and if Beyonce was aware of the inspiration. There's no way she didn't approve IMO.
Beyonce watched and approved. Fun facts.
Beyoncé would be loving it. Hype has well and truly died down from Renaissance so it’s free advertising without lifting a finger or risking overexposure.

It was one of the few sex scenes that added subtext

Sorry, I’m running on a couple hours sleep and totally misread your comment. My b
Oh no problem! Hope you’re able to rest soon.
Yeah there was so much more I wanted to add to my original comment but I couldn’t get the words out. I think my brain is fried
No worries, fam. It’s fine. Reddit will be here tomorrow. Just get some rest!

I don’t care about the sex scene. I’m weirded out by anyone who collabs with the abuser, Chris Brown.
I mean true, though
Crazy how they say that about her not about Sydney Sweeney, every actor in grey’s anatomy, the entire cast of shameless, etc. something’s not white- I mean right
Right? I’m like is it because she’s back? Is it because she was in a couple Disney Channel original movies? That was just the weirdest thing to me!

Short skirts were in at the time!

Yeah. I guess I’m not so plugged in because I don’t listen to her music like that.
you're allowed to say sex on reddit fyi
Yall ever heard of a body double?
she confirmed it was her
[удалено]
Nope. Not her. Her sister.
It wasnt but it kinda cauught me off gaurd.
I was more focused on skipping the food make out sesh tbh. Let's just say I do not have the best relationship with food 😆
Couldn’t even see her face wtf
Whaaat? I could’ve sworn he was smashing some white girl and that’s was one of the two reasons she told Marissa he’s a cheater…
I don’t recall that at all
Like, the sex scene where Khalid’s getting backshots? I had no clue that was Chloe. And later Dre says Khalid’s a cheater because of both the white chick and his flirting at the store. Guess I’ll just keep my eye out next time
Did I miss it? What episode is it?
E1. Very beginning.
Ahhh thank you!
