Seeing the northern lights is a common bucket list adventure for many people. After all, it ticks a lot of boxes—being a dazzling light show, rich historical experience and scientific phenomenon all rolled into one. Plus there’s the uncertainty of it all, never quite knowing if you’ll witness a vivid streak of otherworldly colors dance across the sky…or simply see an oddly colored cloud. It’s nature’s slot machine, if you will.

Traveler and content creator Pency Lucero was willing to take that gamble. After thorough research, she stumbled upon an Airbnb in Rörbäck, Sweden with an actual picture of the northern lights shining above the cabin in the listing. With that kind of photo evidence, she felt good about her odds.

However, as soon as she landed, snow began falling so hard that the entire sky was “barely visible,” she told Upworthy. Martin, the Airbnb host, was nonetheless determined to do everything he could to ensure his guests got to see the spectacle, even offering to wake Lucero up in the middle of the night if he saw anything.

Then one night, the knock came.

---

In a video Lucero posted to TikTok, which now has over 12 million views, we hear Martin ushering her out to take a peek. Then we see Lucero’s face light up just before seeing the sky do the same.

“I thought it was a prank,” the onscreen text reads in the clip. “And then I see it….”

“I was mostly in awe of what this Earth is capable of,” Lucero recalled. “I never expected it to be THAT beautiful for the naked eye.” This is a hopeful sentiment against the widely accepted notion that the northern lights are often better looking in photos than they are in real life.

As Lucero asserted in a follow-up video, “Our video doesn’t do it justice at all…I would argue it’s even better for the naked eye.”

Others were quick to back Lucero with anecdotes of their own experience.

“It’s definitely possible to see it like in the pics. I saw it this winter in Norway, there was bright green, purple and so much movement.”

“They’re so much better in person, the way they dance and move around is insane and beautiful.”

Of course, if you ask Martin, who everyone agreed was the best host ever, seeing guest reactions of pure wonder and joy is even “better than the lights themselves.” But still, he can’t deny that there’s a breathtaking magic to it all. He shared with Upworthy that “Sometimes it feels like it will pull you up in the sky like you are in the middle of it. I wish everyone would have the chance to witness it.”

When it comes to tips for actually seeing the northern lights, Martin admits it still mostly comes down to being in the right place at the right time. Luckily, his Airbnb listing can help with that.

Nature has a great way of reminding us that beyond the distractions and distresses of modern life, there is sublime beauty waiting for the chance to capture our hearts.

When it comes to babysitting, you can hit the jackpot with someone who not only enjoys hanging out with your kiddos but also cleans out of boredom. The only babysitter I’ve had that experience with is my mom, but I do hear they do exist. While walking into a spotless house after a much-needed night out would be amazing, it’s not really part of a standard babysitting package.

Typically, whoever babysits for you is solely there to focus on the well-being of your children. They feed them snacks, play games with them, and follow their bedtime routine to the letter. Then they hang out on your couch reminding Netflix that they’re still watching and wait for you to return. Sure, they clean up dishes from dinner and whatever toys were pulled out during their time with your kids, but they don’t typically clean your house.

But in a private parenting group I belong to, a long debate was started when a mom asked a group of 260k of her closest friends if it would be appropriate for a parent to ask a babysitter to clean their home.

---

The anonymous mom explained that her college-aged daughter had recently started babysitting for a family, but on the second day, her duties suddenly changed. There was a list of chores waiting for the babysitter that included cleaning the family’s dishes and cleaning up messes that were there before the sitter arrived.

This revelation set off a firestorm of comments with many agreeing that anything outside of cleaning up after the children while they’re in your care is a separate job. But not everyone was on the same page and it was clear that this was a topic that was going to cause some intense debate. Since summer months are here, there’s no wonder this topic is coming up and views are split.

Scary Mommy recently published an article posing a similar question, only this was coming from a parent who wanted her babysitter to clean while her children slept. Elizabeth Narins explains that she and her husband are stretched thin and have an active toddler she jokingly calls a “toy tornado.”

“Given the amount of housework that clearly needs to be done, paying someone to sit on our toy-covered couch during naps or after bedtime just seems… inefficient,” Narins wrote before posing the question. “Is it completely out of line for me to ask her to declutter when my kids are in bed?”

Whether it’s the expert interviewed for the Scary Mommy article or the parents in the private group, there does seem to be one common theme among the discourse: Any additional chores should be clarified in the original job description, and if it wasn’t, then it should be directly brought up in a conversation with the babysitter.

Many parents in the comments believed that a housekeeper should be hired in addition to the babysitter, while others thought the babysitter should be offered more money for the additional work. But there were several people who thought it was just common courtesy for a babysitter to clean the house while the kids were asleep.

It may seem that you’re paying a babysitter to do nothing while your children sleep, but you’re paying them to be there in the event of an emergency. No matter which side of the debate you’re on, it seems proper communication about expectations will save everyone a headache in the future.

Do you think cleaning should be expected from a babysitter?

Musical theater isn’t exactly for the hobbyist singer in general, but certain showtunes require so much skill that even the greats would shy away from them. “Defying Gravity,” from lyricist Stephen Schwartz and librettist Winnie Holzman’s “Wicked,” certainly falls into that category.

The iconic song, made famous by Idina Menzel, is a rollercoaster of key changes, dynamic shifts in tempo and volume, agile riffs and of course, that thrilling high belt at the end…all while being suspended in the air, mind you. It’s something that even the best of the best have to train for years to be able to do.

And yet, an 11-year-old made it look effortless.

Back in May of 2023, Olivia Lynes stepped onto the stage for “Britain’s Got Talent,” sporting a little pink dress with ruby red shoes.

As she tells the judges “hellooooo” in the most adorable accent ever, you’d never get the sense that this sweet, polite young girl was mere seconds away from blowing the roof off the place.

But then she opens her mouth to sing, leaving everybody floored from the very first note.

Watch:

Holy moly, was that incredible, or was that incredible?

Olivia would go on to channel Menzel a few more times, singing “Let It Go”and “Into The Unknown” from Disney’s “Frozen” and “Frozen 2,” rightfully getting dubbed “the new, undisputed Disney princess” by judge Bruno Tonioli.

As if Olivia weren’t enough living proof, science does tell us that it is entirely possible to be born a gifted singer. After all, our anatomy plays a huge role in our singing abilities—facial structure, vocal folds, nasal cavities, etc. And our genetics influence our anatomy. So it makes sense that some people come into this world with inherent advantages.

However, just like with any athletic endeavor (which singing most certainly is) our skill level can improve with practice and training. Still, we can marvel at those natural born Olympians who seem fated for greatness.

As any couples therapist will tell you, continuing to go out on dates with our spouses is of course crucial in a marriage. But those lowkey nights of cuddling on the couch and just peacefully coexisting with one another is just as important, and just as rewarding.

This specific kind of domestic bliss was recently captured perfectly by a married woman who goes by @them_yangs on TikTok. In her video, she and her husband are wrapped up in a blanket—her with a glass of wine and a tablet for reading, him looking intently at a TV screen while playing a video game. Each perfectly content to just hang out with one another.

This was something that the woman’s friend apparently could not comprehend.

---

“I told my friend the other night I couldn’t go out with her because I was hanging out with my husband,” she explained. “And honestly she was confused. She was like ‘Oh, you’re going on a date with your husband?’ And I said ‘No, we’re just hanging out. I’m going to read, he’s going to play Zelda, we’re gonna drink wine on the couch. We’re just hanging out.’ And she could not understand the concept of hanging out with my husband. And I said ‘Don’t you hang out with your husband?’ and she said ‘No!’ and that made me sad.”

Though this wife’s friend couldn’t fathom what made this hangout so special, other viewers certainly understood.

“Just existing with your partner doing your own things is so soothing,” one person wrote.

Another echoed, “Being able to hang out with your partner is top tier relationships goals.”

Others shared what their own version of spouse hangouts look like.

One person said, “Sometimes I sit on the phone with my sister for HOURS while we play our own games or do our own things because it’s nice to just have company and vibe even over the phone.”

A few argued for the necessity of nurturing friendship outside the marriage, too, as to not make partners the end-all, be-all relationship.

“I can hang out almost any day with my SO,” one viewer wrote. “So if a friend invited me somewhere I will go out and then hang out with SO another night.”

While that’s a fair point to make, we can’t assume that this woman doesn’t also have healthy relationships with her friends. Nor can we assume that this woman is saying that she spends every night this way. What she is saying, and what we can all take away from, is the importance of true friendship within a romantic partnership. Whether or not your partner is your best friend is probably up to personal preference. But hopefully they are a friend that you enjoy spending leisurely time with.

Couples can also take solace in the fact that date nights need not always be extravagant evenings of painting the town red. Enjoying each other’s company can take on many different forms.

Overhearing someone talking negatively about you behind your back can be devastating, but hearing someone talk about you positively can be life-changing in the best way. Especially, perhaps, when that someone is your mother-in-law.

Mother-in-law and daughter-in-law relationships are known for being a mixed bag, with some being notoriously filled with conflict and fault-finding. But one mother-in-law’s secret habit of letting her daughter-in-law eavesdrop on her when she thinks she accidently forgot to hang up the phone has people cheering her thoughtfulness.

In response to the question, “What secret are you currently hiding from someone that you’re willing to share on Reddit?” user Kindly-Article-9357 wrote:

“I’ve started to on occasion ‘accidentally’ (but on purpose) not hang up my phone correctly when getting off a call with my daughter-in-law.

I then proceed to talk to my husband about how much I enjoy talking to her, how lovely I think she is, how glad I am that our son chose her, and whatever other boost I may think she needs.

She doesn’t have any family that uplifts her, just the kind that tears her down.”

See on Instagram

“I started doing this after my son told me about his wife coming to him in full-on snot tears, because I had once butt dialed her while talking to my husband about her. She stayed on the line to hear what I ‘really’ thought of her, expecting the worst because that’s been her experience of family.

Apparently, she was quite touched by the things I said, and my son told me it gave her a confidence boost that lasted weeks.

So I do it more often now. Neither of them have any idea I do it on purpose, though. They just think I’m getting old and worse at managing my tech.”

People loved how the woman went out of her way to not only let her daughter-in-law know she thinks she’s great but to do it in a way that might truly make her believe it. Having someone praise you to your face is great, but hearing it from someone who doesn’t know you’re listening just hits different.

“Years ago we called my parents to tell them we were expecting our 2nd child. My dad failed to hang up when the call ended and I heard him tell my mom how glad he was to get the news because we were such good parents. I have NEVER forgotten that sweet affirmation that wouldn’t have hit as true if he had said it TO me.”

“Similarly, I talk about my 7 year old to my friends and family and discuss how amazing he is. He can be all the way in his room but I know he’s listening (he’s nosey). I can tell it boosts his confidence. It’s one thing to tell someone directly, but it hits different when you’re ear hustling.”

“I once heard, ‘Kids think about themselves based on how we talk about them. What they hear is what they believe.’ I think each of us has an inner kid that feels the same, to some extent. And I’m sure her inner kid needed to hear those things.”

“My boyfriend did this accidentally one day at work…he and I both forgot to hang up and I heard him talking to his coworker, I was afraid I’d hear something I didn’t like not that he has ever spoken ill abt me to anyone I just have low self esteem..but he went on to tell his buddy how smart I am, how I just know all sorts of neat and interesting facts how I teach him something new everyday and I just melted I tried yelling into the phone to tell him I love him but obvs he couldn’t hear lol its the lil things in life that I cling to most.”

“I do this any time people leave a conversation. Just before they leave the room, I say to the rest of the group, ‘I love hanging out with XX’ or ‘XX is just so nice.’ Or when someone is leaving the car, you do it right before they close the door.”

It’s a good reminder to talk positively about people whether they’re around or not. Only good can come from lifting others up, especially when they weren’t even meant to hear it in the first place.

A viral TikTok video reveals the vast differences in how 2 generations of women view young girls being bullied and it shows how far our culture has come in just a few decades. The video was created by Jackie, a certified spiritual life coach and a narcissistic abuse survivor.

It all started when a young boy at art camp bullied her 8-year-old daughter.

“She shared with me that there’s been a boy at the camp that’s been bullying her all week. So, she said today that he was painting and he had hand paint all over his hands. When the teacher asked him to go to the bathroom to wash his hands, he walked up to my daughter and rubbed his hands all over her hair. He then gave her the loser sign and stuck his tongue out at her,” Jackie shared.

The mom and daughter talked over the situation and everything seemed settled.

Be careful about what nonsense youre conditining your children to accept #abuse #emtoionalabuse #parenting #bullying #generationaltrauma #socialconditioning #stop #patriarchy

Later that day, the daughter shared the incident with her grandmother. “So my mom says, ‘Do you know why he did that?’ And my daughter says, ‘Why?’ And my mom says with a big smile, ‘Because he likes you,” her response set off alarm bells in Jackie’s mind.

“I immediately cut her off. I said, ‘No! We are not teaching my eight-year-old daughter that when a boy treats you like sh*t, it means that he likes you.’ She is not learning that garbage,” Jackie recalled.

The grandmother’s response to the bullying seemed to echo the values of a bygone era when women weren’t encouraged to stand up to abusive men.

Jackie then explained to her daughter why she was the victim of bullying.

“He feels unseen at home in some capacity, and he’s internalized that. He doesn’t like himself very much. So he needs to make other people feel bad about themselves so he feels better,” she continued. “This is the same reason why grown-ups are abusive. They don’t like themselves, and they feel entitled to take it out on you. It’s not because they like you. In fact, it has nothing to do with you,” she concluded.

Ashley Patek, an occupational therapist and certified parenting coach, agrees with Jackie’s view, saying, “He just likes you,” sets a dangerous precedent.

“‘Maybe he just likes you’ are dangerous words that seem to condone bullying behavior under the guise of affection,” Patek writes in Generation Mindful. “But let’s be clear here: name-calling, unwanted attention and remarks, violence, harassment, and abuse are not acceptable. If anything it puts young children in a position to think that 1) it is okay to be treated that way or 2) that they deserve to be treated that way. Essentially, it programs them to accept abuse.”

Author and family life expert Lynne Griffin believes it’s important for young boys and girls to develop healthy friendships, which will greatly impact their adult lives. “Encouraging healthy boy/girl friendships is the best way you can teach your child about healthy adult relationships” — including friendships, romantic relationships, work relationships, and more,” she wrote in Psychology Today.

Jackie’s caption on the video was a wake-up call for parents to challenge old, dangerous parenting ideas that persist today. “Be careful about what nonsense you’re conditioning your children to accept,” she wrote in the video’s caption.

National treasure RuPaul is best known as the creator and host of “Drag Race,” a TV show that has nothing to do with automobiles. Although, the competition is as hot as a street race with drag queens fighting to see who has the fiercest fashion, persona and performance skills.

Recently, he shocked millions of people on TikTok with a video many saw was out of character for the “Supermodel” singer; he gave a lesson on how to parallel park your car. The video was a smash on the platform, receiving over 13 million views because it was fun and surprisingly informative.

“Unironically the most understandable parallel parking tutorial I’ve ever seen thanks mama ru,” one of the commenters on the video wrote.

The TikTok video works because RuPaul shares a simple way for people to align themselves with the space they want by paying attention to their passenger-side door, or PSD, as he calls it. “The secret to parallel parking is the passenger’s side door or PSD. Your PSD has a front seam and a back seam,” RuPaul shares in the video.

@rupaulofficial

Bumper? I hardly know her! Parallel parking made easy!

Here are some easy steps to parallel park like RuPaul.

1. Pull your car side by side the car in front of the open spot you would like to take

2. Give yourself about 12 inches of space between your side door and their driver’s side door

3. Put your car in reverse

4. Once the back seam of your PSD is aligned with the car in front, cut your wheel into the parking spot

5. Once the front seam of your PSD is aligned with the back bumper of the car in front, cut your wheel in the opposite direction

“Voila! Yay!,” RuPaul pronounces after successfully parking his convertible. “You have been promoted.”

Commenters were impressed with RuPaul’s simple technique. “RuPaul explained this better than my driving teacher,” one commenter wrote. “Unironically, the most understandable parallel parking tut I’ve ever seen, thanks, mama ru,” another added.

Some say that the reason RuPaul made the video was because of the unfounded stereotype that gay men are bad at driving.

— (@)

But it’s more likely RuPaul shared the tip because he started driving at a young age and one of his first jobs was as a driver. On a 2020 episode of “Jimmy Kimmel Live,” RuPaul admitted that he began driving at 11.

“I’m from San Diego. When I was 11, my father lived in Cerritos up here near Los Angeles and we would spend the summers with him. He would go to work. Eleven years old, I would steal the keys from his Toyota Corona,” RuPaul recalled. “I would drive around Cerritos in my father’s Toyota Corona, only making right turns because I was too afraid to make left turns. Only making right turns in the neighborhood.”

Then, as a teenager, RuPaul moved from San Diego, California, to Atlanta, Georgia, and took a job driving luxury cars from California to Atlanta and back for his brother-in-law, who would flip them for a profit. “Americans have always been frontiersmen, people who are open to a new adventure, and I felt this as I drove cars alone, back and forth, across the United States,” he wrote in his 2024 memoir, “The House of Hidden Meanings.”

By now the Haka is easily recognizable thanks to social media helping to spread Māori culture. The war dance that creates exaggerated animated faces out of the people participating is done for special occasions, funerals and yes, even rugby games. New Zealand’s ruby team the All Blacks do the Haka before their rugby matches on the field in front of their opponents.

Typically during the Haka the opponents watch respectfully before the whistle blows and the teams face off. But the All Blacks aren’t the only ones coming to the field with their traditional war dance. The All Blacks stood center field across Fiji’s national union rugby team, the Flying Fijians who greeted the New Zealanders with the Cibi.

The Cibi is the Fijian traditional war dance that has been performed at rugby games since 1939, with similar emotion and gestures of the Haka. Like the Haka, the Cibi is generally performed during celebrations though it started as a dance performed before or after war.

---

The All Blacks recently shared a video of the two teams facing off before the rugby match, each doing their cultural dances. It was such a powerful exchange of culture and people couldn’t believe they had never seen or heard of the Fijian war dance.

“I’ve seen the haka many times. always gives me the chills. this is the first time I’ve ever seen the cibi. that was cool! thanks,” one person shares.

“Well now I am going to fall down a rabbit hole watching Cibi, just like I did the first time I saw a haka,” another writes.

” HAVE to stop when I see Haka! Thank you for introducing me to Cibi. These are beautiful expressions,” a commenter reveals.

“The pacific islands have so many beautiful cultures, it’s always fascinating to see how they share similar characteristics but are each so unique,” someone else says.

This isn’t the first time the All Blacks and Flying Fijians have exchanged war dances and it certainly won’t be the last but to watch both cultures express their traditional dance is something everyone can appreciate. The All Blacks and the Flying Fijians play against each other again July 19 in San Diego, find where to watch it here.

Are you still breathing after fourth season finale of The Boys? Everything has suddenly gone down hill for the vigilantes, and through no victory of his own, Homelander is now the de facto U.S. leader after the rapid presidential ascendance of the Speaker of the House, who pledged his allegiance to Homie of the Seven (thanks to Sister Sage). Homelander then declared martial law and deputized Supes to round up anybody who opposes them.

This, of course, is very bad for The Boys group, and in light of certain current events, Amazon/Sony Pictures TV issued a statement including, “The Boys is a fictitious series that was filmed in 2023, and any scene or plotline similarities to these real-world events are coincidental and unintentional. Amazon, Sony Pictures Television and the producers of The Boys reject, in the strongest terms, real-world violence of any kind.”

With that said, the episode was formerly titled “Assassination Run” but has since been changed to merely “Season 4 Finale.” Additionally, the Shifter’s assassination plot did get thwarted when Starlight escaped captivity. Butcher then showed up — Suped and tentacle’d to the gills — and ripped Victoria Neumann in half, followed by Sister Sage releasing a tape that took Robert Singer out of the White House. And so, Homelander is now in charge with most of the vigilantes taken into custody in the episode’s final moments. Now it’s time to rank where the characters ended up this season.

Unranked: Soldier Boy

Not much to work with here, but a credits scene set the stage for a Soldier Boy return. In response, Homelander appeared to grow emotional (oh boy), and also, there is the promise of seeing Jensen Ackles onscreen again.

18. Victoria Neumann

Cons: Began the season with Butcher sending her a disgusting “selfie.” Ended the season with Butcher tearing her in half after she was exposed to the world as a VP Supe. Not great. It’s officially over for her.

Pros: Presumably left a lasting legacy in her daughter, who might be back.

14-17. The Boys: MM, Frenchie, Kimiko & Hughie, At Least

Cons: Man, I hate rounding these characters up together because they deserve more (Butcher will come later), but their fate is a collective clusterf*ck, since they were rounded up and imprisoned. MM got a shoulder tap and a knockout from Love Sausage, Frenchie received a whisper from Cate, and Kimiko was strong-armed by Sam. Also, she overcame her trauma-induced muteness in the most heartbreaking way possible:

As for Hughie, god. The poor guy lost his father, was violated in Tek Knight’s lair, and was tricked into getting engaged to the Shifter disguised as Annie January. Prison might sound like a relief in comparison (for a few moments).

Pros: The group is screwed, but potential saviors exist out there.

13. Deep

Cons: Killed his new octopus girlfriend portrayed by Tilda F*cking Swinton before being rejected by Sage. Got kicked in the crotch (a long time coming) by Starlight and couldn’t successfully fight a woman.

Pros: Still alive because he knows how to bend the knee (literally).

12. Ashley

Cons: Mainlined Compound V, which did not go well, on a whim after being targeted for death by the remaining members of the Seven.

Pros: Perhaps she can Hulk Out while doing the dominatrix thing for a living? She’d surely enjoy that.

11. Starlight

Cons: Her boyfriend got engaged to a fake Annie January, and they slept together, well, under 20 times while the real Annie was imprisoned. She forgave said boyfriend, yet he’s now been rounded up for an internment camp.

Pros: Reactivated her powers in time to fly away when Cindy appeared out of nowhere to drop a boat on a highway. Now, it’s up to Annie to rescue The Boys, but she might find assistance from A-Train. Ashley, too? Maybe.

10. Black Noir 2.0

Cons: Killed the wrong Ashley after catching some serious air. Looks badass but isn’t nearly as interesting as a talking version of the character. Also, not too bright!

Pros: Actually managed to not be killed by Homelander this season.

9. Firecracker

Cons: Probably destroyed her long-term health by taking drugs to lactate for Homelander and still got ditched.

Pros: Acted as the forward-facing member of the Seven to celebrate Homelander’s victory. That’s probably all that she really wanted.

8. A-Train

Cons: Had an unlikely yet successful redemption arc. Must now hide forever. Yet he will probably get pulled back into the action to help rescue The Boys.

Pros: At least he got away alive and removed his tracker. Good for him.

5-7. Sam, Cate & Cindy

Pros: Got queued up for the next season of Gen V. Heck, maybe it’s time to send Cindy to college, too.

Cons: Not seeing any at the moment. These pro-Homelander Supes haven’t hit the skids with him (yet).

4. Ryan

Pros: At this point, Ryan might be the only option to kill Homelander. Although he went to the dark side in this season finale, it seems likely that he will switch sides again in the fifth season. Also, he is now (physically) free, although nobody could condone how he ended up that way.

Cons: Yup, he’s gonna have to kill his father.

3: Billy Butcher

Pros: Snagged the Supe virus, and he’s now in the wind, presumably aiming to commit Supe genocide and avenge Becca. (Leave A-Train out of this, man.) Even though these are “pros” for him, Butcher has now fully surrendered to the tentacled parasite inside of him and the devil on his shoulder. In other words, the Butcher vs. Homie fight now adds up to super villain against super villain.

Cons: That wicked brain tumor means that he’s still talking to Joe Kessler in this show’s take on Fight Club. That feels like the worst self-punishment, even if (physically speaking) Butcher surfaced with power.

2. Homelander

Pros: He’s apparently king of the free world now and still doing his best to fill that hole in his soul. That will never happen, but he did receive a few seconds of satisfaction by visiting his “home” lab and going on a murder spree.

Cons: This show cannot end without Homelander’s death.

1: Sister Sage

Cons: As prisoner of her own mind, she still can’t enjoy life without a lobotomy.

Pros: She’s on top of the world right now and might be the only living being with any strategic pull over Homelander. Hell, he owes her beyond any measure at this point because he would otherwise still be sobbing on the floor. Yes, she’s been doing massively evil deeds (for her own entertainment), but there’s always a chance that she could “Caesar” Homelander in the end.

‘The Boys’ fourth season can be streamed on Prime Video/Amazon.

Chappell Roan rolled through The Comment Section With Drew Afualo and opened up about the various ways her life is unrecognizable post-fame, especially recently after the release of “Good Luck, Babe!.”

She admitted she misses being able to do “drugs in public” and “making out with someone at the bar” without worrying about everyone watching her every move. Roan’s comments came across as lighthearted because her demeanor is so delightful, but her sentiment about the weight of fame got even heavier.

“People have started to be freaks,” Roan said, genuine disappointment palpable in her voice. “They follow me and know where my parents live and where my sister works — all this weird sh*t. I’m just like, this is the time when, a few years ago, that I said if [there were] stalker vibes or family was in danger is when I would quit. And we’re there. We’re there!”

The Missouri native continued, “I’m just kind of battle of — I’ve pumped the brakes on, honestly, anything to make me more known. It’s kind of a forest fire right now. I’m not trying to go do a bunch of sh*t.”
