when coachella reminds us that ignorance is alive and well.

Added: 2026-05-05

[00:00:00]I was under the impression that nothing was explained to her on spot. Everything was super sorry. Everything was like super clearly explained. I think I heard someone yodel.

[00:00:15]>> Is that what you're doing?

[00:00:20]>> I don't like it.

[00:00:22]>> It's my culture.

[00:00:25]>> That's your culture is yodelling.

[00:00:29]See, and this is exactly why I didn't go to Coachella.

[00:00:35]I think music festivals can be fun.

[00:00:37]Coachella is just one of those things I wouldn't go to if I didn't have enough money to make it comfortable. Actually, funny enough, my friend Katie and I have been thinking about going to Coachella.

[00:00:45]But anyway, what the hell is going on?

[00:00:47]Are we back in the day? And this past weekend was Coachella, and I believe there is a weekend, too, as well. So, there's been a lot going on as per usual. But this first weekend came out with a bang. First of all, the lineup was I will have to say the lineup was spectacular. The lineup was fan. The lineup.

[00:01:10]She's being so bad. She will not shut up. Look at her. I'm actually heartbroken as a girl who in 2016 I was like close to a freshman I want to say.

[00:01:21]So that was like peak years for me. And they have all of like it's very 2016 themed I guess cuz it's 2026. So they had Disclosure there. They had Justin Bieber playing all of the good classics.

[00:01:33]And then they had Sabrina Carpenter.

[00:01:35]Very cute girl. I'm not crazy for her music specifically. And I can understand her appeal. Just not my music taste personally. I I like my music with a little bit of edge.

[00:01:46]>> Oh, I like a little edge and a little pop in my hair. So I wanted to add something different, especially for the teen Vogue party. That doesn't mean that I have anything against the girl until now honestly because this situation was kind of weird. So I thought what better time for yet again another unfiltered get ready with me. Hi y'all. Welcome or welcome back to Bossified. It is your girl Ta. Now unfortunately the internet has desensitized us to a lot of rhetoric that can be quite harmful. And another thing that isn't taken as seriously that you should be taken seriously is your internet protection. If you're a teen or 20-some year old like me, especially if you're on your own, you know how important it is to keep your information secure. But what we don't talk about enough is how all of your information, think names, addresses, social media, and even court records, and social security numbers, could be floating out there online. Data brokers are companies that collect your data and sell it to companies for profit. Your sensitive info is used to build profiles on you, which are then sold to companies for their own advertising. And if that information is available to companies, it could definitely end up in the hands of scammers and hackers or honestly anyone with ill intent. Which is why I had to introduce you guys to the partner of today's video, Incogn. So for example, people search sites, publish your personal info, including details about your family members for anyone to look up online. In one case, a child advocacy worker's own child was found listed. Incogn reaches out to data brokers on your behalf and requests that they remove your personal data and handles any of their objections. You can include up to three phone numbers, emails, and addresses to remove as much information linked to you as possible.

[00:03:26]So, protect your info because not only are we in our mysterious era, we're also in our safe one. The link will be in the description box down below. And don't forget to use code bossified at checkout. Thank you so much to Incogn for partnering with me on today's video.

[00:03:38]Without further ado, let's get straight back into it. Back to Coachella. If I were to go to any Coachella, it would have probably been this year. I might actually go next year. But ironically enough, this year also proved that a lot of the prejudices that we have been talking about for a really long time are very well and alive and are even more so proven with this whole Coachella situation. Oh, my inner corner lash just came off. Anyway, Sabrina was performing her set and there was a Arab queen in the audience who basically did their There we go. Okay. So, that's their Zaguta. I think that's how it's pronounced. She was excited. She was really excited to see Sabrina Carpenter.

[00:04:29]From what I understand and from the research that I did, it reminds me of a like a lot of cultures have very similar things. And Sabrina's reaction immediately is just off for multiple reasons, right? And I want to point out some things that I haven't really seen anyone point out. So, first things first, right? Let's actually react to the video at the same time because sometimes I forget what the context of the videos are.

[00:04:59]>> I think I heard someone yodel.

[00:05:05]>> Is that what you're doing?

[00:05:10]I don't like it.

[00:05:12]>> It's my culture.

[00:05:15]>> That's your culture is yodelling.

[00:05:18]>> It's a call. IT'S A CALL. A CELEBRATION.

[00:05:21]>> Is this Burning Man? What's going on?

[00:05:23]This is weird.

[00:05:24]>> First, she said, "I think I heard someone yodel." And the woman does it again, right? And I think she says something along the lines of like, "Is that what you guys are doing?" or something like that. And the girl is like, "It's an edup call. It's adab.

[00:05:38]It's an adab call. And then the girl says, "Are you serious? It's my culture.

[00:05:42]>> That's your culture is yodelling."

[00:05:44]>> And then that's what gets me. The whole that's your culture yodelling. First of all, yodelling is part of someone's culture, not hers, but it is someone's culture, right? And to be fair, maybe she didn't hear the part where she said, "It's adab. It's my adab culture. It's um it's adab. It's an adab call or whatever whatever she said before that."

[00:06:06]But the fact that she's responding to everything else that she said, it's kind of like girl, she already explained it's not yodelling. Like it's clearly not yodelling. It's something else. It's from an up. It's an addup cult, right?

[00:06:18]And then it's also like girl yodelling is someone's culture though. What are the origins of yodelling? Yodelling is or originate. Oh gosh. Wait, what?

[00:06:33]>> GOD DAMN.

[00:06:36]IT ORIGINATES from the German what am I saying? It's a German word, right? But it basically has roots in central Europe, Switzerland, Austria, Germany, and so many other places like that. So, first of all, yodelling is someone's culture. But then it's also like the girl told you clearly that that's not what that was. That call is completely different and it's adab. And then to say, oh well, I don't like it.

[00:07:02]And then she says, you know, um the woman in the crowd basically says, you know, it's a celebration. I'm just excited to see my freaking favorite performer probably. And then she's like, is this Burning Man? I mean, like, what's going on? This is weird. Again, very microaggressive, very a lot of the things that a lot of us have been talking about culturally for a really, really long time now.

[00:07:24]Right. With the whole Saberina Carpenter situation, I was a little confused cuz I didn't see the video. Well, I saw the video. I just skipped pasted it cuz I was like, "Okay, there's beef at Coachella." But I actually like took the time to like watch the video. I was under the impression that nothing was explained to her on spot. Everything was super So sorry. Everything was like super clearly explained. So even after she was like, "It's a call of celebration. I'm Arab. It's an Arabic thing. It's from my culture."

[00:07:51]I would have just been like, "Oh, a call of celebration. Yay." Like I'm Mexican and we do gtos all the time. And I'm not saying they're the exact same thing, but like okay, we don't do griitos all the time, like but whatever. I'm not saying they're the exact same thing, but they they have some similarities in like what they're referring to. And I'd just be like, "Oh my god, yay. A call of celebration. You're like, you're at Coachella." And at first, because I didn't see the video, I thought that after she asked what that was, everyone was just like, "Ah, Coachella Sunny's like everyone was just yelling and trying and not trying to explain." But no, the girl who did it gave like a really clear in-depth explanation, which is kudos to you for doing that in a big ass crowd. But she still like just lacked the perspective to be like, "Oh yeah, okay." And instead she was like, "That's your culture?

[00:08:42]Yodelling?

[00:08:44]H what?"

[00:08:47]>> But for some reason, a lot of things like this tend to get brushed under the rug. But things like this are exactly what we talk about when we say that there is discrimination. It's just more subtle. It just comes out in places like this and Coachella and things like this.

[00:09:00]I always say in my videos, we as a society have been making a lot of progress in a lot of areas. Racism, colorism, discrimination, and things of the sort, but areas like this, Coachella, you know, the way people respond to people's culture is very telling of where we actually are culturally. And even it's funny because a lot of people were putting side by side Beyonce for example reacting to the Hakub.

[00:09:50]So, she was like into it. She was like feeling it. Like, she had so much respect and appreciation for their culture. There's so many other examples as well of so many other women who are performers or even just people in general who are performers hearing something that's a little bit different, a little bit out of the norm for what they're used to, but responding way differently. Honestly, I'm the type of person too where I kind of understand that sometimes, okay, the internet the internet do be doing a little bit too much sometimes with certain things and like the internet tends to put women on a pedestal and then try to knock them down any opportunity they get, right?

[00:10:29]So, a lot of the times people will be very nitpicky with women, will really bash women to the ends of the earth and back for making a simple mistake. But this was one of those situations where not only were there multiple times and opportunities for her to not only listen to the fan but also respond in a better way. Like yeah, even if right, for example, at first she reacted kind of like, oh, like what is that? But then when she heard the fans reaction or um explanation, she was like, oh my gosh, like I'm so sorry. and like you know maybe hyped it up a little bit more or there were so many other ways that she could have approached that situation and she just didn't like she had multiple it just kept going on and on and on like the video is so long too she had so many opportunities to correct that mistake and she just didn't mind you Sabrina Carpenter is on a huge stage she's at Coachella this is a huge public venue and she is a huge public figure with probably lots lots of Arab fans like this is not some small little like oopsies or like oh well you not everyone has to like everything that's different this is what she said she said my apologies I didn't see the person with my eyes and couldn't hear clearly but you heard the okay so see this is where I'll be fair maybe she didn't hear everything that the woman was saying but she did hear enough to respond to some parts of it so that's why I'm kind of like m girl. And either way, it's like first of all, where's your PR training?

[00:12:03]That's the first thing. First things first, where the hell is your PR team, right? But then it's also like, why is that your first response to someone saying that that's their culture? Like, yeah, even the first response was kind of odd to me personally. You didn't have to see the person with your eyes. That's kind of an interesting point to bring up first because we didn't see the person with our eyes either, but we heard her clear enough. My reaction was pure confusion, sarcasm, and not ill intended.

[00:12:34]Oh, brother Sabrina. See, this is what bothers me so much about things like this because it's culture. Okay. And the thing is about like, oh, like sarcasm.

[00:12:44]You're brushing it under the rug and you're kind of minimizing it. Y'all don't get to decide when things are a joke or telling someone not to be dramatic when it's not your culture that was being disrespected. I'm seeing a lot of palmcoled people say like, "Oh, what Sabrina Carpenter did wasn't that serious. Y'all can't take a joke."

[00:13:05]Like, where was the joke?

[00:13:08]I is. Was the joke there? Like, I'm so confused. And sis didn't even try to clean it up after she found out that that was that girl's culture. She should have been like, "Oh, hold on, Diva. You know what? Let me come correct cuz I don't ever want to come off disrespectful. My apologies." And kept it at that. But who the [ __ ] are y'all to sit here and tell somebody else about their culture that they shouldn't be dramatic or it's a joke?

[00:13:31]>> Yeah, you can be confused, but being confused and being rude and being like, I don't like it and like all of these other stuff is a completely different thing. Again, if you're genuinely confused, you would probably react in a completely different way. It just came across as tonedeaf. Could have handled it better. Now know now I know what a zaguta is. I welcome all cheers and yodals from here on out. It's giving her PR team told her to do that first and foremost, but then also like I welcome all cheers and yodals from here on out.

[00:14:03]Why would you even have to say that?

[00:14:04]Like that. The fact that you even have to say, "Oh, by the way, guys, like yeah, I know I reacted really bad to this specific situation of someone yodelling, but you guys can do it from here on out." Girl, chia chow chow. And a lot of people too, a lot of her fans are like, "H, it's not that deep. Who the hell are you to tell other people what's deep, what's deep and what's not deep for them?" It's just kind of interesting that there's so much discrimination and prejudice still and like so much that we still have to work on as a society.

[00:14:39]I really hope that that Arab woman never lets that moment affect her going forward because the thing is about things like that when even like you know celebrities and stuff like that they're very obviously they're very influential and I'm sure there were many young Arab girls who you know he hurt their family members doing that call at weddings and things like that and now they're going to be like oh well now they're probably going to be a little bit insecure about things like that and that's exactly how insecurity is fed if we change the rhetoric around a lot of things and if we are more embracing of certain cultures and dynamics and things of the sorts, we wouldn't have half of the issues that we have right now. It's all about what is because again, society's rules are not set in stone and they're quite literally made up. If we decide to make up the fact that every culture is beautiful cuz it's that's a fact. You know, you choose to believe whatever you choose to believe is reality. I choose to believe that every culture is beautiful. Don't judge, don't jump to conclusions. And what you choose to believe in will show into real life. It will reflect into real life. And you know, no judgments here on Sabrina Carpenter. I do, you know, I'm not the type to crucify someone at the stake for a mistake. Maybe that is even a reflection moment for her. Maybe she does realize like, oh wow, maybe I do have some deep harbored like um westernized ideas of the world. And in reality, there's a lot more to the world than just the West, than just what I'm used to. Hopefully, fingers crossed, that's what it is. And hopefully, fingers crossed, too, that situations like this start happening a lot less because a lot of us are talking about it in videos like this. Okay, so I'm really excited, as usual, to hear your guys' commentary and take on this whole situation. There's a lot to talk about, especially with Coachella in general.

[00:16:27]Have you guys gone? Have you guys ever gone? Did you guys go this year? Have you guys been keeping up with the performances? What's your favorite performance? and all of the things.

[00:16:35]Anyways y'all, it has been your girl Ta and I will see y'all in another video soon. Bye.
