Švedska pop zvijezda Zara Larsson otvoreno je progovorila o događajima iz stvarnog života koji su inspirisali njenu muziku, prisjetivši se svog "haotičnog tinejdžerskog perioda". Gostujući u srijedu, 22. aprila, u podcastu "Call Her Daddy", Larsson je ispričala kako je poljubac s dečkom njene najbolje prijateljice nadahnuo jednu od njenih pjesama.
Pjevačica, koja danas ima 28 godina, otkrila je da se incident dogodio na proslavi Nove godine kada je imala 16 godina:
Iako ju je zanimao drugi momak, dečko njene najbolje prijateljice joj je prilazio cijelu noć i na kraju je poljubio dok je uzimala jaknu.
@scoopittypoop This is the true face of the pro-choice movement. "Nobody celebrates abortion!" "It's just a clump of cells!" "Safe, legal, and rare!" This is how they gaslight us when we speak out against the modern day H*locaust of abortion. These are the lies they say either to themselves or to others to justify and sanitize first-degree m*rder. But every once in a while, the mask slips and the demons reveal themselves. Zara Larsson and the OP think it's funny to joke about k*lling babies, but more importantly, they think others find it funny as well. And they're right. Hundreds of thousands of people who swear that all they want is "healthcare for women!" liked and shared this vile content, and then came to Zara's defense in light of the controversy. Her response by the way was doubling down and claiming people don't understand humour, then saying that we should be able to talk more openly about abortion. She's right. We absolutely do need to be open about abortion. 73 million babies are aborted each year, equating to about 29% of all pregnancies, or roughly 200,000 abortions per day globally. In the United States, almost 1 million babies are aborted annually. Approximately 200 million women are missing worldwide due to s*x-selective abortion, female infant*cide, and other similar practices. More than 1 in 2 trafficking victims have been coerced into at least one abortion, with around 30% having experienced multiple abortions. Nearly 70% of abortions on victims of s*x trafficking are performed legally at abortion clinics, with the abuse almost never reported, and often even covered up by the clinics. Women who go through with abortions have a 154% higher risk of s*icide than women who carry to term. 65% report symptoms of post-traumatic stress disorder and are more likely to be at risk of long-term clinical depression. Almost 70% of women seek help from a mental health professional after their abortions. @Zara Larsson has millions of girls looking up to her, but she couldn't care less about these statistics. To her, k*lling babies is "purrrrr". This is the true face of the pro-choice movement. #zaralarsson #abortion #prolife #conservative #Christian ♬ original sound - ScoopittyPoop
"Jednostavno sam mu uzvratila poljubac jer sam bila takva, nepromišljena. Imala sam 16 godina i bila sam jako pijana", priznala je Larsson.
Cijeli događaj je krišom snimila djevojka kod koje je bila zabava, pa je njena prijateljica dobila snimak prije nego što joj je Zara stigla išta objasniti.
Nakon što je snimak procurio, uslijedile su teške posljedice. Prijateljica je prekinula svaki kontakt s njom, a isto su učinili i svi ostali prijatelji.
"Osjećala sam se kao smeće koje pluta svemirom", ispričala je pjevačica, dodavši da s tom prijateljicom nije razgovarala četiri godine.
Larsson se osvrnula i na nedavni skandal zbog kojeg je, kako tvrdi, izgubila sponzorski ugovor vrijedan tri miliona dolara:
Jedna obožavateljica je objavila snimak s koncerta uz opis da je nakon nastupa imala pobačaj. Larsson je na to odgovorila šalom na račun "ubijanja" nastupa i pobačaja.
Zbog te šale ostala je bez najvećeg ugovora u životu, ali je istakla da se nije previše zabrinula, poručivši brendu: "U redu, luzeri!".
Zara Larsson je najavila i izlazak svog novog remix albuma "Midnight Sun: Girls Trip", koji izlazi 1. maja i na kojem gostuju zvijezde poput Shakire i PinkPantheress.
