The Pop Break · Episode
![“Doggedly researched … [A] complex portrait of an artist who wants his audiences to see him as fashion-forward but has had a hard time shaking his past.”

!["Riesman gathers an impressive array of interview sources [and] brings a great deal of empathy to her subject as a longtime fan.... Every bit as complex and intriguing as the pop star himself… [A] captivating profile of the Gen X pop sensation."
