Charlie Puth: I like his mournful and angelic singing on this song The Fast and the Furious Wiz Khalifa song. Otherwise, I could not let you know anything greater than that the singer-songwriter once added an all-important two-word phrase to modern vernacular: “I’m hungry.”
Today, Puth is within the news again after his name was mentioned on the title track of Taylor Swift’s recent album: Department of Tortured Poets: :
“You smoked and then ate seven bars of chocolate
We felt that Charlie Puth should have been a bigger artist
I’ll scratch your head, you’ll fall asleep
“Like a tattooed golden retriever”
Interesting – and, one might say, sprinkled with subtext and subtext that also indicates: “I’m hungry.”
Let’s take a moment to revisit the heady days of 2018 when Puth was portrayed as cover Billboard. In one paragraph, sandwiched innocently between Jennifer Lopez and charred broccoli, the pop star – then 26 – used a very specific phrase when declaring she wanted a meal.
“Puth’s gaze wanders toward the entrance to the Hotel Bel-Air, where we – and apparently Lopez and Alex Rodriguez – have come for lunch. “I love J.Lo, but I don’t care.” Puth’s driver, an elderly man named Bela, brought us here after Puth announced, “I’m hungry!” Now Puth focuses on his meal: two plates of hamachi sashimi, roasted chicken sprinkled with black truffle, and a few charred broccoli, which he chews diligently to please Pasternak, his trainer.
This might need otherwise gone unnoticed were it not for the aggregation magic wrought by Stereogum, which highlighted this quote and included it in its profile writing history.

“I’m hungry” was a silly and cute one-off line that also turned out to be the Manchurian Candidate’s trigger phrase. Whereas I would not otherwise spend time contemplating Charlie Puth, now “I’m hungry” entered my mind unbidden at any time when I felt the darkest rumblings of needing food.
