Charli XCX delivered a memorable monologue during her recent appearance on “Saturday Night Live,” where she called out New York Post columnist Andrea Peyser as being “extremely brat.” The singer explained that the term “brat” is all about attitude and vibe, citing Martha Stewart’s recent interactions with Peyser as prime examples of what it means to be bratty.
In Martha Stewart’s new Netflix documentary, she recounted her 2004 insider trading trial and how Peyser reported on the events in court. Stewart expressed her disdain for Peyser, stating that she was glad the journalist was dead, which turned out to be untrue. Peyser responded to Stewart’s comments with a scathing article in The New York Post, asserting her existence and calling out Stewart for fixating on her.
The feud between Stewart and Peyser has now become public, with both parties publicly acknowledging each other’s remarks. Stewart, known for her perfectionism and pettiness, addressed Peyser’s article at a recent event, sarcastically referring to The New York Post as her favorite newspaper. Despite the tension between the two women, Stewart believes that the controversy will only serve to draw more attention to her documentary.
The clash between these two high-profile figures highlights the power of words and the impact that media coverage can have on public perception. It serves as a reminder that even seemingly trivial interactions can escalate into full-blown conflicts when egos and reputations are at stake. As fans eagerly follow the developments in this unfolding drama, it raises questions about the role of journalists in shaping narratives and the responsibility of public figures in responding to criticism.
