Vivek Shraya: How to Fail as A Popstar | Women In Media

Robyn Stewart, of Women in Media Podcast Episode #51, nominated this week’s guest for a future episode as someone she admired in the music industry. While we tried to connect this summer, our schedules didn’t align until this fall and I was excited to learn that she was sitting on an exciting announcement!!
She is the creator and writer of the new CBC Gem Original Series How to Fail as a Popstar, a Canadian Screen Award winner, and a Polaris Music Prize nominee. Her best-selling book I’m Afraid of Men was heralded by Vanity Fair as “cultural rocket fuel,” which we’ll discuss in this interview, and she is the founder of the award-winning publishing imprint VS. Books, which supports emerging BIPOC writers.
Vivek Shraya is an artist whose body of work crosses the boundaries of music, literature, visual art, theatre, TV, film, and fashion. Vivek has been a brand ambassador for MAC Cosmetics and Pantene, and she is a director on the board of the Tegan and Sara Foundation.
