Yes, I love her have for years. I so wish they’d had a better writer interview her instead of their shittiest one. Everything he touches turns to suck. Such an obviously clickbait miner.

That she still managed to say thoughtful and interesting things in this interview really speaks to her spirit I think. I love her music and now I really want to meet her and just listen to her talk (I realize that is a little creepy and won’t happen).

This interview violates the one interview rule my high school…

Rich whitesplaining and provoking Meshell for a headline. *cringe*

I feel like this is how he does things...I was pretty grossed out by the Christina Hendricks stunt he pulled, too.

“I only regret that I have but one star to give for this comment.”

Sorta his thing lately, I think.

Glad I am not the only who thought he totally fucked up this interview.

Bhahaha! He really circled around her like a gnat and Me’shell was all, “Peace!”. She came across as principled but compassionate, reasonable and diplomatic.

Magnificent takedown. Thanks.

Rich is pretty consistently the absolute worst writer on Jez, without exception. The fact that they continue to employ him is baffling to me.

I laughed out loud at “Curses! Foiled again!”

You need more stars.

Thanks for the great summary of the interview. I’m sure M’shell wasn’t expecting to be interviewed by Gretchen Weiners

These reader comments/discussions turn into discussions about cohesiveness, and the distraction of JZ’s own agenda, and NOT the substance of the piece.

I agree with someone below who thinks RJ kept pushing for MN to say something controversial. She sidestepped it eloquently and elegantly every time.

This is a long-winded piece wherein Juzwiak tries to squeeze something juicy out of an artist who’d like to talk about her music.

In 2004, there was a documentary released about the early days of women’s wrestling (“Lipstick & Dynamite”). Moolah was one of the available talent for the movie’s promotion, and I interviewed her. She was surly, but knew that the film’s success depended on good soundbites, and told some good stories of back in the…

I looked this piece up upon your recommendation in the comments of the “Christina Hendricks’s Publicist Is A Big Meanie!” whine-fest (iiiiin the fuuuuuuture!), and... hot damn, you weren’t kidding. This is an absolute incoherent trainwreck of a piece of writing, like Rich forgot that it was due that day and just…

I almost wrote “hilarious” (and now I just did), but the appropriate response is: perfect. That’s the correct treatment of at least that piece, and this and numerous other of Juzwiak’s stories. He misuses words frequently, his tone is ill-suited to the subject matter, and he sometimes reads as if he’s writing long…

This is an ongoing problem with this writer. If you’d like to check out a really pretentious train wreck of a piece, go back about five weeks for his summary on 6ix9ine’s criminal hearing.
