Holy shit I'm too old to understand gossip that is posted here. When did that happen? Are old users going to a farm once they stop understanding posts??

Wasn’t there something about him being excited for her to turn 18? I got this knowledge through tiktoks that I could barely follow but if so...fucking gross.

Is the age difference as weird sounding if they possibly dated when she was 16 and he 19. Or still weird? I don’t find it that strange as I’ve seen bigger age gaps but I can understand how that can also be creepy

I think it's like an "appropriate" but "inappropriate" age difference. I call it the freshman/senior (within 4 years) exception. Like everyone is cool with it but the older guy has already experienced more than the freshman making it easier to prey on her. I personally stopped dating guys older or younger than me by 4 years because I noticed a pattern when I was younger that older guys really aren't shit even when they're 19.

Haha this is the perfect way to describe it actually. You’re right

I know nothing about these people or the show they're from besides from your comment on the other post op and this is the nice fun juicy drama I need rn thank you. and the drivers license song is actually pretty good!

This cast is messy and I imagine set will be interesting when they're filming season 2 and they need to stop dating each other.

I'm curious if Joe and Frankie are still together.

What else has happened with the cast?

[killerspork33]

One of the actresses outed Joe and Frankie as dating on social media.

I THINK they already finished filming season 2...not sure though.

Thank you for this. I’m too old to be caring about this drama but I also live for drama so....

People were saying the song was throwing shade but it’s not like she said anything mean towards Sabrina or Josh.

But really, Olivia Rodrigo’s new song is SO GOOD. I hope all the best for her. I’ve had the song on repeat since it was released and it’s crazy how fast it moved up on the charts. The Jonas brothers and Sophie Turner posted her song and I don’t think they even know her? I hope her career is successful. Her songwriting is excellent and I love the snippets of her songs she posts on Instagram.

I did actually watch HSM the show and liked Josh for a bit but after whatever happened with him and Olivia, I went for the more talented of the two. Josh’s music is soooooo boring.
