Kim: She’s one of my favorite nepo babies (along with Romy Mars). Maybe my favorite genre of music is nepo-baby music?
O’Connor: I think my favorite genre of human is nepo baby. Hailey Bieber, Sofia Richie…Gracie!
“Risk”
O’Connor: Sometimes the only way I can get out of bed is by putting on “Risk,” and I instantly jump out and start dancing.
Kim: It’s very Taylor Swift “Mean” era, with Gracie playing the guitar on the backing track. Aaron Dessner also produced it, which is so exciting.
O’Connor: OMG, you just reminded me there is a Taylor feature on this album. I’m not mentally prepared.
O’Connor: “God, I’m actually invested / Think I really want this / I’m not even kidding / No, I’m actually invested / Haven’t even met yet / Wish that I was kidding, I’m not, and I hate it” perfectly encapsulates how it feels to have romantic feelings for a man in 2024.
Kim: Seriously—this is also how I feel about Nicholas Galitzine, whom I’ve never met and probably never will!
