    Its not about a singer who becomes romantic with a cult leader...its a completely degenerate POS about how she`s used and abused to make her career better


    it was supposed to be about a troubled starlet falling victim to a predatory industry figure and fighting to reclaim her own agency and was changed into degrading love story....


    One of the crew said this about it..
    “It was like any r*p* fantasy that any toxic man would have in the show — and then the woman comes back for more because it makes her music better,”

    So not really what i`d call a romance..
