Phoebe Bridgers on the backlash to her SNL guitar-smashing: "It’s hilarious to me that people care so much"

Variety

“I stand by it!” Bridgers laughs of last month's stunt that made headlines when David Crosby called it "pathetic." “The fact that it made people so mad is kind of what’s punk rock about it. No thought whatsoever went into what it represented or meant: I’d never done it before, so might as well do it (on SNL), where it’s gonna be immortalized. It’s hilarious to me that people care so much, but, I mean, there’s a video of a steamroller crushing a bunch of Gibson (guitars) as a tax write-off because they weren’t selling all of their stock — let that piss you off!”
