| How Making Hayley Kiyoko’s Film “Genuinely Healed” Myra Molloy |
|
Myra Molloy is still processing the dream that was making Girls Like Girls. In theaters June 19, Hayley Kiyoko’s feature filmmaking debut — inspired by her book and song of the same name — tells a sapphic coming-of-age romance between it-girl Sonya (Molloy) and quiet, new-in-town Coley (Maya da Costa). While it will put your heart through the wringer, Girls Like Girls is ultimately optimistic about love and identity. Filmed in Kelowna, British Columbia, two summers ago, it was just what Molloy, 28, needed while coming out of a four-and-a-half-year relationship.
“It was actually quite a godly moment,” Molloy tells Bustle over Zoom, recalling a moment where she filmed a fan-favorite scene between Sonya and Coley that — book fans, IYKYK — takes place on the ground outside.
Learn more about Molloy — and her exquisite taste in rom-coms — in the Bustle Booth questionnaire below.

| The Reality TV Fan Accounts Love Drama In The Comments — But Hate Leaks |
|
Of all the ways reality TV has changed across the decades, the biggest one might be that it’s no longer unfolding on a single screen. Thanks to social media, the buffer between reality stars and viewers is basically nonexistent. Cast members can now spark new feuds, fuel languishing ones, defend themselves, and reshape narratives in real time with a single Instagram comment. Documenting every passive-aggressive caption, suspicious unfollow, and behind-the-scenes rumor is a growing ecosystem of reality TV Instagram accounts that operate as their own kind of 24/7 entertainment news cycle. Here, five of the most influential reality TV accounts break down their role in the fray.
