Was going back through the Crazy Ex-Girlfriend music videos to revisit Rebecca’s songs, and it genuinely blows me away how much they just...let her look like a regular person.
#obviously rachel bloom is an attractive woman and she didn't look BAD but she just. was a person living her life. she looked nice and a bit#more made-up in the songs where she was specifically meant to be more Formal or Sophisticated but she was still like. realistically pretty?#like she looked like a person who looked particularly nice for a specific occasion#and when that WASN'T the case she just...looked like a person. she existed as herself with clothes that reflected her style and she wasn't#airbrushed or perfectly put-together or made over into this unachievable standard of prettiness literally she just existed#my god. I don't actually think I'd ever seen that before and now I want to cry about this show and about Rebecca all over again#(and yes the reason for this is likely because rachel bloom had a lot of say over her own show but my god do I appreciate her doing that)#NO ART IS /NOT/ SYNONYMOUS WITH BEAUTY I DO /NOT/ HAVE TO PERFORM CERTAIN STANDARDS OF ATTRACTIVENESS TO BE WORTH CARING ABOUT#NO WOMEN /AREN'T/ ONLY MEANINGFUL IF THEY LOOK THEIR PHYSICAL BEST ACCORDING TO SOCIETAL BEAUTY CONFORMITY STRICTURES AT ALL TIMES#NO IT /DOESN'T/ DETRACT FROM THE EXPERIENCE OF WATCHING SOMETHING IF THE PEOPLE DON'T LOOK OVERLY **SEXY** AT ALL TIMES#APPEARANCES /DON'T/ MATTER ACTUALLY!!!!!!#THIS IS THE ONLY SHOW EVER THE ONLY ONE#mc13's routine cxgf media breakdown
