Trisha Paytas auditions for iconic Disney character but fans obsessed with outfit detail

The singer says she was inspired after watching videos of a small production
Trisha Paytas has revealed her audition for a Disney stage production, but her choice of attire has left fans distracted.

The singer and YouTuber shared her latest video on TikTok, where she confessed to having watched numerous clips of a stage show suggested by her 'For You' page.

The show in question is the Hunchback of Notre Dame, currently being performed at West Valley Arts in Utah, USA. Running until 30 August, the venue's website states that the show draws inspiration from both Victor Hugo's original novel and the Disney animated film.

It appears that sneak peeks of the show have sparked Trisha's interest, as she confesses her desire to star in the show herself. She also expressed her wish to travel and see the production in person.
Speaking directly to the camera in the clip, she says: "My entire FYP is this theatre in Utah, West valley it's called. Shout out Beatriz (Melo), she plays Esmerelda. She captivated me...so I started being like clicking her profile and seeing all the songs she's ever sang.", reports OK!.
"Then I started seeing the guy who plays the Hunchback and I think I would be a really good Hunchback for future productions so here's my audition."
However, she went on to admit: "I don't know Hunchback that well. I never liked it as a kid because I probably saw myself too much in Quasimodo and I suppose that was a bad thing back then but now I see myself as a Quasimodo and it's a great thing, I think it's a slay so we're embracing it."
She then starts belting out one of the show's numbers, though confesses she doesn't know the words properly so performs it karaoke-style.

The clip attracted hundreds of responses from her followers. Numerous fans applauded her for spotlighting smaller creators and intimate productions.
This sparked a response from the theatre's official account, who wrote: "Trisha, we are honoured that you love our theatre's content! Follow us for more, and come see Hunchback playing through August 30!"
One follower responded: "Trisha could NEVER be Quasimodo she's too stunning." Yet many were sidetracked by Trisha's wardrobe choice in the clip.
Whilst some complimented her vibrant pink locks, numerous viewers couldn't help but spot she was sporting a top featuring My Chemical Romance lead singer Gerard Way. The text above reads Michael Romance.
One follower responded: "Need the shirt link." Another declared: "Trish I love you and your shirt is sooooo swag." Others remarked how they'd snapped up tickets for the band's recently revealed tour dates.

But it was in the voiceover to which Helena mimed to, that she may have taken a swipe at her fellow contestants, Shakira, Toni Laites and Yasmin Pettet. The audio was a clip from an interview with actress Ariana Greenblatt, who played the 'mean girl' daughter in the Barbie movie. Ariana says: "Whatever, we all know blondes have more fun, because their bleach is in their hair, let's talk about it." Helena's use of the audio could be seen as a dig to Shakira, Toni and Yasmin, who were often billed as the being given the 'mean girls' edit during this series of Love Island. Her TikTok also coincided with the release of an i-D Magazine feature interview with the three Islanders where they talked about feeling grateful they could represent brunettes and in Shakira's case, the South Asian community. "What have I signed up for?" Shakira said in the i-D interview. 'Everyone's gonna love the blonde hair, blue-eyed girls, we see year in year out on Love Island. I thought, based on initial attraction, it wasn't going to go well for me, but I was pleasantly surprised.' Shakira, Toni and Yasmin also addressed the ongoing feuds and rivalries in the villa describing at "classic High School behaviour". 'We felt that massively in the changing room, the snickers, the whispers, the dirty look," Shakira said. "When you come around the corner and they stop talking, you feel isolated, it feels frosty, really tense, and it's not nice. "It wasn't a bad edit; we tried to fix it, but that was our experience, we lived it.' Despite having a rocky relationship with some of their co-stars, the trio stuck together and gracefully took on every obstacle thrown at them. Toni won the series alongside Cach and scooped a prize of £50k, while Shakira and Harry and Yas and Jamie are also going strong. Despite each bagging themselves a new fella, they have proudly said that the real prize is the friendships they made.

Alien: Earth is wantonly disrespectful to the canon

I once spent a delightful weekend in Madrid with the co-producer of Alien. His name was David Giler (now dead, sadly, I've just discovered) and he'd hit upon the bizarre idea of trying to get my anti-eco-lunacy book Watermelons made into a Hollywood movie. The film project never came off but I did learn an important lesson in our time together, hanging out in nice restaurants and pretending to work: if you want a happy life cushioned from financial care, the secret is to wangle yourself percentage points of a successful franchise. Another example of this is Franc Roddam, with whom I once spent an even stranger weekend in Accra, Ghana. Roddam devised the format for the MasterChef concept and has been sitting pretty ever since. As too, of course, has Brummie comedian Jasper Carrott, who co-owned the production company that invented Who Wants To Be A Millionaire?. So, I learned the other day from a chap who comes riding with me, have many of the people involved with the Mamma Mia! musical, who were persuaded to take percentage points in lieu of payment because the show had no money at the beginning and no one quite expected it to do as well as it did. Anyway, Alien. One of the reasons it had such a massive cultural impact, Giler explained, was that it was just about the first film to introduce the concept of a female action heroine. Before Alien, the job of women in action films was to look pretty and vulnerable and to be rescued by men. Sigourney Weaver's iconic Ripley character changed all that (she had no option, all the blokes, notably John Hurt in the exploding chest scene, having been disembowelled by the Xenomorph). We have been paying the price ever since with endless blockbusters featuring pumped-up girls doing stuff that in real life they'd be utterly incapable of doing, while the beta males look on pathetically as western civilisation breathes its last. There have been seven Alien movies so far: the original quadrilogy, starting with Ridley Scott's in 1979, and three artsy prequels, starting with Prometheus, which Scott also directed. Now Disney has got its claws on the franchise with yet another prequel series, written and directed by Noah Hawley (who created the FX series Fargo). It has had quite a few favourable reviews but the diehard Alien fans aren't happy. And I'm with the diehard Alien fans. On the upside this latest reboot has remained true to the original aesthetic and its mood of careworn bleakness. (It's set in 2120, but the typefaces on the computers still have the retro look of a 1979 sci-fi movie designer's idea of the future.) But it's disappointingly silly, even twee in places, with poor editing (clunky transitions; pointless fades to black) and gaping plot inconsistencies quite out of keeping with the original's grimy authenticity. The premise is that one of the spaceships owned by the rival evil corporations that run the universe has crashed into a high-rise building in Bangkok. It has been collecting nasty alien specimens, including an eye creature with octopus legs, half-leech half-centipede insects that drain your blood in seconds and – bizarrely – a Xenomorph. I say bizarrely because Ripley's primary mission in the Alien movies was to stop the Xenomorph, which had never before been seen by any human, getting to Earth and wreaking havoc. Yet in Alien: Earth, a film supposedly set two years earlier, the Xenomorph has already arrived. This is wantonly disrespectful to the canon. Meanwhile, the world's youngest trillionaire, Boy Kavalier (Samuel Blenkin), a sort of whackier, creepier, more annoying Elon Musk, is trying to win the 'race for immortality' by engineering synthetic bodies, implanted with human consciousness, called 'hybrids'. The prototype is Wendy, who has the body of an attractive young woman, but the mind of an 11-year-old girl who was dying of cancer but who in this new container, apparently, will live for ever and be able to do all sorts of cool things such as jump off ledges from high cliffs and land unscathed. Soon Wendy (Sydney Chandler) is joined by yet more hybrids, all of whom still talk and think like the children they were. Nervous, impulsive, traumatised kids who've had no time to get used to their bodies and no training whatsoever: the very last people, you might think, that you'd send totally unbriefed to conduct a rescue operation in a disaster zone swarming with killer aliens. But Boy Kavalier – for the flimsiest of reasons – thinks it makes perfect sense. As one wag has quipped, it really should have been called Alien: Daycare.
