"I like basketball, and I've been to three games, which is so much more fun than seeing it on TV, I think"
About this Quote
The real contrast she draws isn’t about basketball’s rules; it’s about presence. “So much more fun than seeing it on TV” is less a media critique than a status marker: courtside (or simply in-arena) is where the spectacle becomes bodily. You feel the sound, the swarm energy, the little unscripted frictions that broadcasts sand down into narrative. She’s pointing to the part of sports that functions like fashion week or a premiere: the crowd as co-star, the event as a place to be seen, the night as a social object.
The “I think” at the end softens everything. It’s a conversational hedge that keeps her from sounding preachy, but it also reads as image-management: a model offering an opinion without claiming authority. The subtext is a modern celebrity survival tactic - enthusiasm, but not expertise; taste, but not tribalism.
