St. Vincent - Daddy's Home (May 14, 2021) Album • Page 8

Got it, yeah it seems that way it seems.

I suppose my point is that there are SO MANY interviews that never ran because the entity that was being interview requested for it not to run, it's very common and part of the job.

 

I know Annie is super private and her relationships, she was really cagey about her sexuality and dating history, but also just let the interviewer know

 

i agree with this for sure. whole situation is a lose-lose.

 

we need to release the Gabe Saporta / AP.net interview

 

Yeah I don’t really know what to make of this. I can understand feeling comfortable writing songs about something but not talking about it conversationally or in interviews but then the PR campaign has to have a different approach. I think the whole thing is a bummer

 

I think that I’m approaching this from a labor perspective, almost. If that request is mutually agreed upon, then i don’t have quite as much of an issue with it. If it’s just forced to be shut down due to the power and force of the interviewee.... i have a harder time stomaching that. Again, I’d feel different if it posed a safety/privacy breach i guess, but that doesn’t appear to have occurred in this interview.

 

@Drew Beringer I think @irthesteve and I were actually talking about that fairly recently

 

i don’t think there’s any problem with asking questions about annie’s dad. like others have said, you have to kind of expect that. the weird part is some of the leaps taken in the questions and the reactions to annie’s answers.

 

DM it to me, I'll leak it, then we'll delete this exchange and no one will be any wiser

 

How about a rule where you pay a journalist extra to not publish a piece. Not bribery, just a last minute late fee lol

 

@Marx&Recreation that's actually called a "kill fee" and is a real thing haha

 

Now we’re cookin

 

If you’re going to build your whole release and style around something and then get cagey and kill interviews when people ask questions about it, don’t fucking do interviews?

 

There’s also plenty to talk about without getting into the situation with her dad. If it was just said upfront that she didn’t feel comfortable talking about it there’d be no issue

 

god if I had it i would have released it already haha

 

Definitely a strangely tense interview, but in the end it’s not the interviewers job to be their PR person

 

interview has been killed, again, journalist has gone private on Twitter no doubt because of unjustified blowback. fuck this.

 

Yeah, she straight up said she was getting threats from lawyers before going private. Not good.

 

lol they got lawyers involved? fuck outta here

 

I have screenshots of the entire thing

 

stick them in here please, this is a ridiculous situation

 

I feel like you can generally divide Annie’s career into pre- and post- David Byrne

 

This is weird!

 

Does the interview still exist anywhere?
