What happens when a rabid Beyoncé fan discovers she (gasp) also loves Taylor Swift? Her world is turned upside down, and Queen Things is born. Queen Things finds KJ Miller — Creator, Entrepreneur, Professor — doing what some on TikTok have called “the Lord’s work”: disrupting the narrative that powerful women must be in competition with one another and instead highlighting how we support and propel ourselves and each other. Join KJ as she dives into inspiring and hilarious stories that prove one thing: when one of us shines, we all shine brighter.

    Bad Bunny’s Triumph & Taylor’s Backlash

    This week, I’m breaking down why that halftime show felt so joyful, and why some people seemed determined to hate it. Then we pivot to Taylor Swift’s new Opalite video and the op-ed calling her art “boring” and overly self-mythologizing… Let’s talk about it.

    Is Olivia Dean ACTUALLY The Best New Artist?

    Olivia Dean is our Best New Artist, and I can scarcely believe how right the Grammys got it. In this episode of Queen Things, I’m still sitting with the joy of watching Olivia Dean win—her voice, her ease, her stage presence, and that unmistakable feeling that we’re witnessing the start of something truly special.  From there, we’ve got a full pop-culture rundown. I’m talking Grammys performances that delighted me, confused me, and confirmed some long-held suspicions about who gets praised for doing the least. I also reflect on influencer burnout, the identity wobble that comes with your twenties, when cultural commentary starts to feel less funny and more mean-spirited, and why I’m increasingly intentional about where I draw that line. And because things feel heavy right now, I share a few small but meaningful moments that have given me hope lately.

    I Finally Let Olivia Dean Ruin Me (In the Best Way)

    This was supposed to be a chill listen. Instead, Olivia Dean’s The Art of Loving absolutely leveled me. In this bonus episode, I press play on the album for the very first time—snowed in, wig on, emotionally fragile—and talk through what it means to hear someone articulate love, heartbreak, growth, and self-trust with this much clarity at 26 years old. From bell hooks references in the intro to songs that feel like a breakup before the breakup, to a final track that left me fully undone… this album is tight, intentional, and quietly devastating. Headphones recommended. Feelings unavoidable.

    I’m Bald…What Now?

    I’m bald. And I want to talk about it. In this episode, I share what led me to shave my head after being diagnosed with alopecia areata — the grief, the relief, the fear, and the complicated feelings that come with seeing yourself differently in the mirror. We talk about identity, femininity, beauty standards, and what it means to navigate a very visible change as a woman who’s both deeply private and publicly online. I don’t have clean answers, just honesty about where I am, what I’m wrestling with, and how I’m learning to exist in this new version of myself. It’s gonna be raw, reflective, (hopefully) a little funny, and very human. Thanks for being here with me.

    Why Is Beyoncé Told “that’s not possible” - When Taylor Swift Isn’t?

    What began as an off-the-cuff observation turned into a full-blown conversation after listeners weighed in on the differences between Beyoncé’s Renaissance film and Taylor Swift’s End of an Era. In this episode, I unpack your comments and explore what might actually be driving the contrast — race, leadership style, perfectionism, collaboration, narrative choices, or something deeper. This isn’t about competition. It’s about power, perception, and how different women are allowed to move through the world — and be believed when they do. Let’s talk about it. Also!  I want to know more about you. If you have a few minutes, take the listener survey below and tell me where you’re listening from, what you want more of, and what conversations you want this show to explore next.

    Beyonce's a Billionaire and Taylor's a Menace

    Happy New Year! Beyoncé is officially a billionaire—and the internet is losing its mind. I’m unpacking whether that milestone deserves celebration, side-eying the billionaire discourse, revisiting Taylor Swift’s End of an Era, and making bold pop culture predictions for 2026. Plus: Black News, celebrity MAGA turns, and some big personal announcements.

    Is Relatability Ruining Pop? [BONUS TEASER]

    In this December bonus teaser, I’m kicking things off with some housekeeping — including when Queen Things returns for Season 4. Then we dive straight into one of the most interesting conversations I’ve seen in pop culture lately: Charlie XCX’s Substack essay on the “realities” of being a pop star, and Swiftologist’s take on why pop doesn’t make icons anymore. From authenticity to escapism, parasocial closeness to moral responsibility, I’m breaking down what we actually expect from the artists we love, and what happens when relatability becomes the whole brand. It’s messy, it’s nuanced, and yes, I have thoughts. If you want the full episode — including my take on the Taylor/Trump discourse, Jaclyn Hill, DEI backlash, and this week’s Black News — become a Queen Things subscriber on Apple Podcasts, Patreon, or Substack. See you inside.
