⋆ ˚｡⋆୨୧˚ clairo’s age of clarity ˚୨୧⋆｡˚ ⋆
i had the thrill + pleasure of speaking with @clairo for my first cover story... + it’s deliciously serendipitous that it’s for @seventeen , where my career began. in a wonderful conversation we jokingly refer to as the “yearners convention,” we discussed her relationship with music ahead of her festival sets this spring + summer, what it was like to grow up during the early stages of the internet, + coming into her identity as an artist + human. massive thanks to claire for being so lovely + sharing such great stories, + to everyone at seventeen + cosmo for making this experience truly unforgettable. if you would’ve told the 17-year-old, tumblr-obsessed, coolest version of myself that she’d grow up to write a magazine cover featuring one of her favorite musicians, she’d probably ask you when it’d happen. that time is now, + you can see all the shades of clairo at seventeen.com <3

“you can’t really escape where you’re from. you can change and grow into something better, but the things that happen to you when you’re young—you carry them with you for the rest of your life,” she tells me of her latest project, ‘WOR$T GIRL IN AMERICA,’ for @cosmopolitan . read the full interview at the link in bio. 🖤💰
