The Fangirl Stigma II: When Artists Hate Their Fans

For part two of our discussion on fangirls we wanted to discuss bands who have said some controversial things about having a predominantly female fan base. Join Sara Feigin and Jenna Million as they uncover double standards in the pop-punk world, where bands are judged by outsiders for attracting female fans while those in the scene don't seem to bat an eye over it. We then take a trip to Australia and discuss some questionable interviews with pop-rock princes 5 Seconds of Summer, a band that's polarizing in the world of music for being catapulted into fame for touring with the biggest boyband of the 21st century, One Direction. !!!!
