Lyrics Under Scrutiny and Mockery
The lyrical content of The Life of a Showgirl has become a target of ridicule. Songs like Cancelled are perceived as overly self-pitying, touching on themes that seem trivial or superficial—fame, scandal, wealth, and alcohol—often coming off as try-hard or insincere.
A specific highlight that drew negative reactions was her song referencing Travis Kelce's penis. Fans and critics alike felt this move was an attempt to mimic light-hearted sexual lyrics from artists like Sabrina Carpenter and Chapel Ron but ultimately fell flat. Many view these lyrics as crossing over into the realm of the cringeworthy, unworthy of her artistic caliber.
