Aubrey O’Day is locked in for Euphoria’s third season, which on Sunday (April 26) welcomed fans to the frequently tense, and even downright uncomfortable, wedding of Cassie Howard and Nate Jacobs.
In an X post shared shortly after the latest Season 3 episode’s premiere, the Danity Kane member called the latest entry “truly a piece of art,” likening the experience of seeing it for the first time to how it felt to watch Netflix’s Diddy docuseries Sean Combs: The Reckoning.
“Euphoria tonight.. my god,” O’Day wrote. “That was truly a piece of art, every choice made. I haven’t sat silent after an episode of anything since the Diddy Netflix doc. I’m silent right now. Wow.”
O’Day, notably, is among those interviewed in the Alexandria Stapleton-directed The Reckoning, which debuted on Netflix last December. She has also spoken out about Diddy, who is currently behind bars following his conviction on two counts of transportation to engage in prostitution, in the wake of the hit documentary’s release.
As for Euphoria, Sam Levinson’s HBO drama, led by Zendaya as Rue Bennett, is currently in the middle of its long-awaited third season. In Sunday’s episode, much of the original crew embarked on a reunion, of sorts, thanks to the exorbitantly pricey wedding of Cassie and Nate, played by Sydney Sweeney and Jacob Elordi.
We won’t spoil the more noteworthy reveals of the episode here, except to say that Alexa Demie’s Maddy Perez, now back in Cassie and Nate’s life, found herself a bit more emotionally impacted by the wedding than she might have expected. O’Day addressed this too, arguing against an X post positing that Sweeney’s character “did her so wrong” by marrying Nate.
“No she didn’t,” O’Day responded, as seen below. “She kept her away from the worst possible life she could have lived. To my queens: sometimes the moments that hurt you the most are the ones that are actually saving you from something that will hurt you a whole lot more. Life has shown me this many, many times.”
Euphoria, following some major developments for Rue and company in the latest episode, returns for more this coming Sunday (May 3).
