I have no clue where fangirl hate came from because being a fangirl is a wonderful thing. You celebrate your favorite artists, rejoicing in every little moment you can experience with them. You want to see them as much as possible and support them everywhere. Being a fangirl is incredibly fun and one of the best feelings. It's something truly special when you feel the connection between you and your favorite artists. Here you can see Joya Marleen holding what I made her!

But being a fangirl goes beyond just liking someone’s music or movies—it’s a full-blown passion. It’s staying up until midnight to stream a new release, making playlists that feel like love letters, learning every lyric, and defending them like they’re your own family. It’s the rush of seeing them live, even from the very last row, and feeling like they’re singing just to you. It’s crying with joy when they win an award or simply post a new selfie.
Fangirl culture is about community, too. You find your people. Friends from all over the world who love the same things you do, who understand why your heart skips a beat when your fave breathes in a certain way on stage. You make group chats, edit videos, write fanfiction, create fan art, trade merch, and laugh endlessly over inside jokes that no one else would get.
There’s also so much power in it. Fangirls are often the driving force behind artists’ success organizing streaming parties, fan projects, and turning niche performers into global icons. And even when the world dismisses fangirls as “too much” or “too dramatic,” the truth is: fangirls are passionate, loyal, creative, and unstoppable.
Being a fangirl is emotional, exhilarating, chaotic, and full of magic. It teaches you how to love loudly, how to hope, and how to hold onto joy—whether that’s in a concert crowd screaming lyrics or alone in your room at 3am with headphones in and heart full.
