The Sleepover Club: DeuxMoi Is No Longer Anon - But Are Gossip Accounts Harmless Fun, Or Is Their Impact Far More Sinister?

Jun 6, 2022

DeuxMoi has been unmasked, with the famed gossip account being run by two socialite-adjacent white New York women. In honour of her no longer anonymity, we're discussing the legacy of modern gossip accounts. Do celebrities set themselves up for this type of attention, or do gossip accounts encourage a gross surveillance state? And once these accounts aren't anonymous anymore, can they ever retain their integrity? Especially when they start monetising their content? Ione and Halima argue it out on the podcast this week!
