The most cool thing of euphoria is that there are no like " angelic good "
characters. All people do shit sometimes/

[rahimaa.]

i never even saw her character as unlikable. i only disliked when she ditched her friend who needed her at that time. but other than that i admire her. cuz she's unafraid to be herself.

[mari-ghxs]

honestly shes one of the prettiest girls i've ever seen

[cinnamonbun]

euphoria is like the only show where i don't hate any character. yeah i might prefer one over the other but i don't hate anyone.

[manontubbiolo]

Woah it's so interesting to hear her talking about how she feels that people dont like her for being loud in situations and she feels awkward and like everyone hates her. Cuz as an introvert I feel the exact same way about myself but that people hate that I'm quiet and want me to be louder and as a result I become more quiet just like she says she becomes louder. And also the way she said people dont like loud girls I feel the exact frickinnggg way about quiet girls

[daniellopez]

when she said she felt comfortable with online places bc people wouldn't ask her to hang out, i felt that
Kat is one of the most relatable and favorite characters and Barbie is just perfect playing her

[tenziyang]

Gonna tell my future kids this is the Real Barbie.

[CaribbeanSpyce]

“I felt really restricted by that. I felt like I could never really do anything unless I could conform to these beauty standards they [society] put on me.”
That was so powerful to me.
Growing up as a woman of colour, not having perfect skin, not the, “desired figure, ” really makes you feel like you don’t have a chance.
But here we are ladies, living, loving and glowing despite the above statement!
And if you’re letting what she said stop you, DON’T. Stop thinking and just do. Pretend you don’t even know what the standard is. Pretend you are the standard and I promise, you will become it in your own right and way of living.

Kat is such a badass!! Barbie is really slaying

[AT-qdcv]

I love her character. Kat reminds me a lot of myself when I was a young fat girl, turning to sex to make myself feel worthy in order to obtain self confidence. A lot of girls can learn from Kat.

[luizaccampana]

I can't believe I had never seen this interview before!! I love this woman so much! She inspires me!

[jaeda]

The way Kat’s personality changed when she would put her new clothes on is EXACTLY how I act when I’m wearing clothes that I truly love. That’s why I relate to her character the most, and also why I love fashion ♡＾▽＾♡

[diamond]

i relate soooo much to kat. when barbie said kat was a floater, i felt that exact same way. i have very few friends and haven't been the type of person to have a bff since like elementary school.

[TaylorCope]

Hearing her explain this makes me relate to Cat even more now

[acmb]

Kat was my favourite character like she is so complex, insecure but also unafraid, i loved her ugh.. also barbie is a gorgeous human

[sleepinginside]

I love Kat's character so much I want to see more of her in the feature

[lonelypotato]

I never felt that Kat was an unlikeable character, I liked her confidence and her ability to speak her mind. The only thing I didn’t like was when she ditched Maddy for some random guy. But other than that, Kat is one of my fav characters.

[martinamay]

Barbie talking about stan culture is my fave cause I remember it vividly and everyone was just so vicious for why?

[nico-kenn]

she gives me a riot grrl vibe. in euphoria and irl

[isetyouonfire]

She reminds me of Jessica Marie Garcia from on my block ❤️
