.@phoebe_bridgers smashed her guitar on @nbcsnl – and nearly broke the internet.

.@phoebe_bridgers: “I think it’s very funny that Marilyn Manson's label decided to drop him right when the story went public, and people have just known about it for so long. I find that very annoying. I think it’s a lot of performative activism, basically.” pic.twitter.com/CYM1lO94Nk
