"People love to see reactions, they love to see emotions that come about"
About this Quote
The intent reads practical, not philosophical: if you want connection, you have to give people something they can read in real time. Pop performance is a negotiation with attention, and attention is increasingly routed through faces: the singer’s face, the crowd’s face, the mother in the balcony wiping her cheek. “Reactions” is an entertainment term as much as a human one, hinting at the industry’s feedback loop where emotion is both sincere and staged, spontaneous and coached.
The subtext is slightly unsettling: emotion isn’t just experienced, it’s produced. “Emotions that come about” suggests a chain reaction, like the performer’s job is to catalyze a moment that can be captured, clipped, and replayed. In the broader cultural context of social media and fan culture, London’s observation scales up: we don’t just watch art anymore; we watch people watching art. The reaction becomes the product, and the feeling becomes proof of belonging.
