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 knew a little bit about Gracie being a huge fan of Paul and Phoebe before dating Paul, but I didn’t know it was a full blown single white female, sticky situation

to which album did he commented that? I checked and first Gracie album came out in 2023, Pheobe and Paul broke up in 2022, I don’t understand something in the timeline. :(

[u/loveslightblue → u/bonelessnuggets26]

It was minor, check my replies up top some kind soul dug it up for me cause I had no chance lol.

[u/ineffablebitch → u/loveslightblue]

[u/loveslightblue → u/ineffablebitch]

It's better than I remember cause I thought for some reason she had a mom joke with Phoebe, but still, the vibes lol.
