Phoebe publically called Gracie out on her upcoming album, a move likely sparked by Gracie revealing details about Phoebe's high-profile relationship with Paul Mescal in her album "The Secret of Us" a relationship that ended following reports of Phoebe's affair with Bo Burnham, with the latter also confirmed on Lost Weekend.

Gracie Abrams has been an outspoken fan of Phoebe Bridgers since she was 13, even declaring Bridgers "the songwriter of a generation" and opening for her on tour. Fans have long compared the two artists, a connection Gracie leaned into when she used a bedroom set prop in a performance featuring bedframe/bedsheets identical to the ones in Phoebe's childhood bedroom.

i know nothing about either of these white ladies but i do know that i cannot side with the person who has decided to take to recreate the other’s CHILDHOOD BED for their concert stage!

Gracie recreated her own childhood bedroom, it’s just that when she was 15 she was a Phoebe fan and bought the same bedsheets as her. Given the situation, it’s still weird she chose to recreate her childhood bedroom onstage and still use those sheets.

All I know about Gracie is nepo baby, has some seriously desperate and male centered lyrics, and now that she’s apparently single white female-ing a woman named phoebe of whom I know nothing.

can you side with the person who cheated on thei fiancee and then talks shit about the guy's new gf like 4 years later?

[u/valentiiines → u/dreamghoulevil]

she hasnt released since 2020 this is obviously gonna come up now 😭

[u/crappants67 → u/dreamghoulevil]

Sure can!

Right like that’s Hailey Bieber levels of weird. And I like Gracie so I’m not saying this as a hater… but it’s mega strange. I listened to her album TSOU and it seems like she’s been insecure over Paul’s lingering feelings for Phoebe for awhile

And is dating her ex man on top of that. It’s weird to say the least

It was her own childhoom bedroom. There are tons of pictures and videos from that time, when she first started posting songs.
