Alisha Confronts Her Fear Of Dating

Dear Media
About this episode

This week’s Pretty Basic is giving exclusive tea and a little bit of therapy. 👀 Alisha may or may not have been the whistleblower on Taylor Swift’s engagement (oops). She’s also in the middle of a real-life love triangle (yes, really), questioning long-distance relationships, and wondering if she’s… a f**boy? We’re exposing her avoidant attachment style, the signs from God she may or may not have received, and why not knowing hurts more than heartbreak itself.


Meanwhile, Remi spills on her big Nickelodeon animated debut (!!), and the girls recap their wild weekend in Miami—think drag brunch, yacht days, and plenty of chaos. Oh, and BTW… a major rebrand is happening. Say goodbye to “Alisha Marie” and hello to just “Alisha.” (Sooo sophisticated.)
