Olivia Rodrigo has spoken about why she’ll never watch The Idol.The pop star said in a new interview that she has no interest in watching the HBO show because she regards it as anti-feminist.“I don’t have the desire to [watch it],” Rodrigo told The Guardian. “I remember walking out of Barbie and being like, ‘Wow, it’s so long since I’ve seen a movie that is female-centred in a way that isn’t sexual or about her pain or her being traumatised.’”The Idol, which stars Lily-Rose Depp and The Weeknd (Abel Tesfaye), was originally pitched as a satire about the music industry that follows Depp’s pop star Jocelyn as she frees herself from a toxic relationship with Tesfaye’s club owner/cult leader Tedros.But when Euphoria creator Sam Levinson took over after the exit of director Amy Seimetz, he reportedly turned Seimetz’ vision on its head, stuffing the season with a large number of sex scenes and providing little commentary on its original themes.“The Idol was one of HBO’s most provocative original programs, and we’re pleased by the strong audience response,” HBO said when it announced the series’ cancellation last month.“After much thought and consideration, HBO, as well as the creators and producers have decided not to move forward with a second season.
