@Bix Okay, but I WAITED for there to actually be a movie and thought he was going to do more things with the character! π€£
@Bix @weirdfizz Scandalous! In a discussion recently Gaines/Brooks came up in reference to the rebrandings of Jojo Siwa and Miley Cyrus. I defended Brooks, offering that Gaines was never a sincere rebranding but a separate concept project. The reaction was "why do you know so much about this?!?"
@weirdfizz @Bix Right! But they weren't really disagreeing. Instead I think they were just shaming that I had enough interest in Garth and the Chris Gaines deal to speak on it. My wifi still holds the infidelity/Trisha thing against him. I don't dismiss it but am willing to admit I don't know enough about someone in the superstar spaces and their relationships to judge too harshly.
@Fellixe @Bix But you were right! Chris Gaines was a character with a biography. Garth Brooks wasn't trying to convince anybody "I'm an emo guy from Australia now".
