That's the chick who used her ex boyfriend dating a superstar to further her career. They broke up a decade ago yet she acted like it was the year before lol.. The article got a lot of hype (because of course she used Lady Gaga in the headline to get people to click) but if you look behind the thinly veiled "women supporting women" front you can tell she's clearly still pissed at her ex for dumping her and trying to glean anything she can from his success in life and love. She knows that was her reason to because she gets embarrassed whenever she's asked about it in interviews and changes the subject. I guess we could blame the culture at NYT. She has worked there since 2011 and hadn't really made much of a mark off her own back. Watching all your colleagues prosper while you ride on their coat tails must make you a bit desperate especially when you want to be a star journalist. But yeah a lot of her articles are fluff pieces dressed up to be Very Important, Deep Thinking on Cultural Issues.
