    I think the interviewer was using the connotation aka vibes of “holding space” and Cynthia thought it was the denotation aka actual definition of the psychological concept so she reacted appropriately for the real definition. The interviewer likely walked it back because Cynthia’s reaction was stronger than she expected so she might have thought she’d used the phrase incorrectly.

      I read a post about the interviewer explaining her experience with the interview and she definitely didn't expect Cynthia to react that strong. The whole "holding space with the lyrics of Defying Gravity" thing was based on a conversation she had with a co-worker earlier that day and when Cynthia reacted that strongly she didn't want it to sound like something she had just made up and said she had seen posts online. Basically, everyone was just making stuff up based on how the others were reacting 😂

    I think the interviewer meant that the lyrics of Defying Gravity makes some people feel inspired to be present as themselves and own/ embrace their space in society that often requires you to conform (as opposed to hiding away). Thats quite poignant as a lot of people dont own/hold their space due to being made to feel ridiculed and shamed.
    I always tell my loved ones to own the space theyre in.

      The interviewer actually already spoke up about it. Her first words to the girls were serious, but Cynthia's reaction to her words was so sincere that the interviewer became flustered and forgot what to say next. So the interviewer then said the thing about "queer media" and that's where Cynthia's confusion starts 🤣and then everyone was confused!

      I actually like this take on it, makes sense. The lyrics of the song speak to me as a queer man to own (or hold) my space and be present as myself and I've never been someone to completely conform to what society expects. So that's actually a very profound meaning to it.

      You would never get the truth because she was just tryna sound fancy to impress the movie stars & would never cop to it LMAO!!! Although is she did, I'd hold space for my subsequent admiration of her.

    The comic relief that is created when these two women come together is iconic. How some of the interviewers don’t catch on to them wanting to burst into laughter shows their lack of awareness and social cues like what? Did you not study that in school?. Ari has come along way with holding in her laugh. I hope their press tour never ends. 😂
