- HAPPY 2024 WE MISSED YOU ALL!!!
Sorry for our short 2 week hiatus, but we are back to weekly uploads for the rest of the year.
Today's episode is the Renee Rapp effect. Her story is a beautiful one because she is living proof that your direction is more important than your speed. Renee has always had this north star in her career, music, and her relentless pursuit of that dream. The first step of your career does not have to look like the last step. No matter how small the step, or how big the setback, Renee always kept moving in the direction she knew she was meant to.

I heard Renee say on CZcams somewhere she agreed to Mean Girls knowing it would be her way onto SNL. She is very strategic in reaching the mainstream!
She is literally a genius if that’s true wow
Lorne Michaels is also a producer on Mean Girls 2024

The team behind is part of the masterplan
ppl calling her an industry plant is sooo annoying like just admit you’re not up to date on the newest music artists! it’s okay to not know who people are!! she’s literally new, this is her mainstream breakthrough, ofc you probably have never heard of her. discrediting someone’s career and work just because YOU PERSONALLY don’t know her is crazy. takes less time to type “renee rapp” into google than it does to type “industry plant” into a random comment section
They say that about every young woman that is becoming successful in the music or entertainment industry. It’s just misogyny honestly
@@makayla03333 fr... notice how men are never "industry plants" according to those people
People don’t even know what industry plant actually means. It used to be used for people who pretended they came up independently or without a label, but they actually did have a lot of backing behind the scenes. It’s so funny when people call someone like Olivia Rodrigo an industry plant because she was literally on Disney, there was never an attempt to pretend she came up on her own. I feel like people have forgotten what traditional artist development is.
this is true for sabrina as well
exactly!
Reneé mentioned she’s a very ambitious person with big dreams that are specific asf. She literally said the only way she saw herself getting into the music industry was through acting which is why she did TSLOCG in the first place; so ofc any opportunity she got to leave that show to pursue music she‘s gonna leave. She also manifested that she wants to do SNL (which she just did) and become an EGOT by the age of 40. So yeah this girl is here to stay for a long time and I’m excited for her.
She is so smart about always having a vision and picking opportunities that could bring her career to the next level
And she got on SNL because of her work with Tina Fey in Mean Girls
She's smart
she's had this all planned out since she started broadway, and it's so impressive that it's actually working the way she planned it to
Yet her music career is not hitting lol
Funny thing is that i discovered Reneé Rapp after listening to two songs that i saved just to notice they were from the same girl. In a way her career is being spread "organically". The algorithm gets you, and you stay. That's quality!
I found her from tiktok. The clip was from her show the sex life of college girls
Same. “Too Well” just popped up in my stream randomly. It got stuck in my head and I could not find the song again. I was searching for weeks for it and typing stupid lyrics into google to figure it out. Then when it came back one day I made sure to remember her name.
ME TOO
same
“Your direction is more important than your speed.” I’m taking that everywhere. It’s going right next to one of my faves “don’t confuse motion with progress.” 🧘🏾♀️😮💨🥰🕯
I have a contradictory feeling: wanting to gatekeep you guys but wishing this to be the biggest pop culture podcast on CZcams
Ashley Park also originated the role of Gretchen in Mean Girls on Broadway!!! She did this before Emily in Paris. Also Jaquel Spivey is a broadway actor who was the lead in a Strange Loop.
I saw Ashley as Gretchen in DC in 2017, before the show went to Broadway. She was excellent!
it’s SO refreshing to see an actress/artist that is so genuinely herself in every single way. she’s so vulnerable, authentic, unapologetic and open anytime she’s on a screen whether it’s acting, singing or in interviews and that is getting more and more rare these days. her insane talent and sense of humor are truly some of the most unique and memorable characteristics i’ve ever seen. her SNL performance of snow angel was out of this world. i don’t even know if she knows how good she is. watching her sing or talk or quite honestly do anything is addicting. i’m smitten with her, to no surprise, everyone should be!
just a note, the jimmy awards are specifically for high school students in musical theatre
This is my first time coming across y'all, but I love the talking points y'all made so much! Seeing people call Reneé an industry plant is definitely weird when she's been so organically in the algorithm of different platforms. For me in particular I definitely have to thank TikTok for putting a clip of her just being her funny, talented self on The Terrell Show on my fyp back in August of last year, because it's what really made me keep my eye on her (in the midst of all the content I consume as a music enjoyer & kpop stan lol) to the point where I checked out her album Snow Angel a month later and fell in love with all the tracks and her vocal/lyrical delivery. Although, I didn't do my super big deep dive of her interviews, live performances, & broadway/theatre content until sometime earlier this month after her New Years Eve performance and the Mean Girls press tour had really got to rolling. I've only been a "hardcore stan" for a short time, but I'm already so so proud of her after her SNL guesting/performances and the fact that she's going to all these big music festivals soon. I'm just so excited for her ongoing journey and to see what she does for her sophomore album
The broadway to weights comparison with the rock Lee clip was TOP TIER
Reneé is one of the most talented people in the buisiness rn, industry plant my ass.
Funny that you mentioned it, Sabrina actually has her own production company called "At Last" and she has always wanted to make an Alice In Wonderland Musical that is set in a musical festival. She has teased this for YEARS.
Oh that would be so iconic omg I need it 😭😭
I first loved her in Sex Lives of College Girls. So it was such a delightful surprise when i learned she can fucking SING. She is so great and so smart, and SO FUNNY. I am addicted. LOVE HER
Sex lives of college girls is the reason I know who renee rapp is. I first found clips of it on tiktok.
Just a little add on, if no one has mentioned it yet, when she won the Jimmy's in high school she was sick. Like she had tonsillitis, and an infection.
As someone that got to see her live while she was touring the USA for her album. She is amazing live!!!! her recorded album honestly does not do her justice she is just insane live. literally one of the best concerts i've ever been to
Ashley Park, who played the French teacher, also played Gretchen in the Original Broadway cast of Mean Girls.
Please do the selena gomez effect!!
I was obsessed with her when i was 9-13, id love to see an analysis of how exactly she rose & maintained her fame. I always watched her documentary (before she even came out with my mind and me, the one from like disney days) where she and her mom talked about how she got famous and i think it’d be interesting to cover
Dude same she was my introduction to pop music and the first celebrity I ever became a fan of
yess This would be so good!
i missed y’all !!!!
Honestly Rene is smart for the way she moved to get to her end goal she booked a show to gain more of a fanbase and to get her to a place that she can make connects for music and then the show doing well especiallly cuz of her character and her music doing well is just the icing on the cake and I remember seeing Ariana grande basically saying she did the same thing when she got the Opportunity to audition for victorious
Prior to Mean Girls, I only knew the Renee Tiller meme and thats pretty much it😭 shes come so far and congrats to her coming out 🧡🤍🩷
she’s bisexual actually but you’re so right, she’s come so far and has hustled so hard i love her!
@@torijeri Shes so talented I just had her album on repeat! And she announced changed her labels recently on SNL a couple days ago
@@torijerishe came out as bi like years ago, but she came out as lesbian very recently
Holy shit I’ve not seen that video in years omg. It’s crazy she started with all these things and also that video and the video of her going OFF with Natalie Weiss holding her leg up
I love your analysis of Renee here. It was cool to listen to something so in-depth.
With your categories of artists, I'd put Beyonce as both a vocalist and a performer. I hear people comment on both her incredible vocal ability and performances all the time. Renee often cites her as a top vocalist and influence.
i found y’all’s pod right as the holidays started and BINGED your episodes. glad y’all are back
Ahhh welcome we are so happy to have you!! So excited to finally be back to weekly uploads🤭
She is amazing. She's done so much all within her early twenties, I doubt there's any stopping her now ❤
Yeah she's getting an EGOT eventually, the Grammy will be first and then its only a matter of time and good casting
She's already done all 4 things, she'll start getting recognized for it soob
When you guys discussed legacy being cemented by leaving at a peak - i immediately thought of an example in a different field. In the sport of formula 1 (a racing series), driver Nico Rosberg cemented his legacy by leaving at the peak of his career upon beating one of the greats, Lewis Hamilton, in the 2016 wdc title. Although his victory was a feat in and of itself, his immediate retirement led to a reputation he never could have maintained had he remained in the sport. It’s really interesting that the idea of peaks transfers through different industries!
Hi i am of that older demographic you were talking about. But i have known of Renee since her start. Her voice is amazing and she is a little chaotic. Perfect combo!! Thanks for the deep dive.
Renee is just ❤
Know reneé since broadway and the fact she was in hunterville nc when I lived in CLT nc is so iconic 🎉
i have been bingeing all of your videos recently and they are SO GOOD! you guys are so underrated omg
“Life’s a fucking blizzard” so true! Happy you’re both back ✨
This has got to be one of my new favorite channels to just listen to.
I loved this in the first 2 minutes…and it only got better. Thank you so much for this- I am feeling inspired 💙❄️
This is the first time i'm watching ypur channel and i loved this. Reneè is truly iconic and I honestly feel so lucky to be able to witness her growth and follow her through her amazing future career. My girl is going places 🌟❤️🔥
Love Renee, thanks for this vid!
okay set design! you guys are gonna blow up soon, I just know it
Thank you for introducing to Renee last year! Love her music!
Yayayaya been waiting for this
I found your podcast from the clip you posted on tik tok!!!! Absolutely loooove the flowers she’s finally getting 🌹 she deserves it soooo down bad. Glad i’m not the only one who admires her perseverance enough to talk about it for 45 mins
You guys are awesome!
So excited
My algorithm SLAPPED recommending you to me a few months ago. Love the conversations
AHH this just made me smile :')
I kept refreshing your page waiting for more videos !! so happy for a new one !!
OMG that makes us so happy! We are happy to be back to weekly uploads🤭
I’m in love Reneè and her music so yeah ❤
as someone who lives in Colorado and desperately wants to leave, I love the song Colorado because it reminds me the grass is always greener. I live in a place that everyone wants to live, yet I’m trying to escape it
I love that song too, and it’s extra meaningful to me bc I actually did move to Colorado (Denver) after my second year of college bc I needed a big change in my life and Colorado looked beautiful to me. And loved things about it there but I left after 2 years bc there was too much snow in the winter for me.
@@tmendes24 Yeah there’s a lot of great things about Colorado but also a lot that can negatively impact mental health. On the one hand, Colorado gets 300 days of sunshine, but on the other, half of the year everything is just dead and brown. Also with more and more transplants moving here it has turned into the next California. When I first moved here at 5 years old (Boulder) it was a very hippie town. Now it’s overrun with incredibly wealthy people and those who lived here 20 years ago, like my family did, can no longer afford it.
Also about "branding herself as an artist": I think a major obstacle is also going to be the reputation Gen Z artists have rn. Olivia Rodrigo and Billie Eilish are considered 'artists', not just singers or writers but truly artists, while pretty much every other contemporary is like a "Tiktok girly". Very short songs, quite generic following trends set by older artists or the two mentioned above and targeting Gen Z. A lot of older generations don't take them seriously. Reneé is doing a great job collaborating with older artists, *singing* and not being known for silly videos, but serious budget productions. Still, a lot of people are not giving her credit for her music, because they expect it to sound a certain way without even listening once.
Let's see how it goes, her rise in fame and success over the past year has been insane.
I probably going to get hate for saying this. But let’s be honest the movie of Mean Girls was made for Reneè Rapp to put her more in the spotlight. Watching the movie for the second time made me realize that. It’s clearly that they wanted her to really shine in the movie. I listen to the most of the original soundtrack from the broadway show. And they cut a lot of the songs and cut some parts in Meet the Plastics songs only to showcase Reneè voice. I think that’s is the fact why people are saying she is an industry plant. The girl is very talented and she got a great voice.
Nope. It was actually the opposite way. They first announced it when they were still running the show on Broadway but it was post lockdown by the time casting started. The movie was originally set to go straight to Paramount+ but sometime after Reneè's album release they switched to a theatrical release probably because she was in the rise already. Also, about the soundtrack, that was a trainwreck including her songs. The only reason why it's not as bad as the others is bc of her voice, same goes for Jaquel and Auli'i.
I’d love to see these two insightful ass individuals talk about Chappell Roan cause her story is insane and her music is top tier!
Such a good episode! Excited for the tate macrae one!
You are soooo spot on about jaquel!!!!
I love yall so much whenever you see this even though it’s kind of off topic, how to you feel about the rainbow and pink tie dye style shirt in the new mean girls that Regina wears when they go to her house? I’ve been asking my friends about it and I think everyone has mixed feelings on it
Wow you guys made cleaning my room sooo much more fun :) I hope cochlea sponserst you
Ashley Park (French teacher in Mean Girls) was also the original Gretchen on Broadway!
She looks like and has similar vibes to Billie though. They are giving twin vibes
shes the glee dream
i want to see a video on "The Conan Gray Effect"
Ashley Park also was the OG Gretchen on broadway
please do a percy jackson episode omg
RENEE RAPP WORLD DOMINATION 2024 PLS
💕💕💕💕💕💕
I completely agree on your take of not wanting vertical videos / Tiktoks in movies, but there's no denying that they served a purpose. It's portrayed very "boomer discovers the Internet for the first time", but when we're talking about high school drama nowadays it does involve Tiktok and the Internet in general, although the use is a bit excessive.
Telling ppl to not use vertical videos in a movie like this is like telling ppl to not use the text messaging in modern teen movies, because that's just as cringe tbh. They're not going to start writing letters tho and calling is super unrealistic
Random tidbit: the MG musical movie started filming in early March, not January! Filming ended around April 20th for the spring fling shoots, but they might’ve done reshoots some time later(presumably post strike)
SLOCG S3 hadn’t started filming and I believe it hasn’t yet as of February 2024. Bc of the writers strike, filming was on hold so she released tour dates. They may have interfered with potential filming dates but there was no certainty that they would be back.
I’d love to see a video on someone who had an instant/overnight rise to fame and made it work. Idk like lil nas, ice spice, Olivia Rodrigo or Tyla? Then again, they are still new and we kinda need to wait a bit to see if they stick so an older artist who’s like them and has been active for years?
We did an episode on this exact topic! "The Olivia Rodrigo effect"
i’ve should’ve listened to the renee rapp effect WAY earlier tho
You guys should do Sydney Sweeney next!!
Her names sounds famous. Like “Reneé Rapp” just sounds like a star actress.
Add Bon appetit editors and on screen personalities to the quit at peak list
Nicky’s hair is hairing today omg
Omg thank you I've been growing it out and I think it's finally starting to serve
Am I the only one who did not think the brand placement stuff was that bad🤣Like I went into it expecting to see so much after I heard people talking about it but there was barley anything
Best analyse here on CZcams. Only i would not put her in one of three katogories. Her Lyrics are on a level like her voice and dance on snl wath a big show, snowangel Performance on SNL was art of its own
i would LOVE to see a video about leaving something at its peak but i think it would be so funny to title the video “the simon cowell effect” after all your other videos with that type of title is about up and coming female pop stars
i definitely think rihanna w music to makeup fits into the "simon cowell effect"
Not them notpointing out ashley was the og broadway Gretchen
you guys have become one of my fave channels nowadays. Amazing work as always 🩷
begging yall to move his mic or talk into 😭😭😭😭
Bringing up Ohio State dance? Nicky gets it fr.
