The White Lotus’ Natasha Rothwell on the 'angsty' music that shaped her

Life in Seven Songs - A podcast by The San Francisco Standard - Tuesdays

Long before Natasha Rothwell started stealing scenes as Belinda on The White Lotus or Kelli on Insecure, she was a self-described people-pleaser and peacemaker (yes, she’s a Libra). In this episode, Natasha reveals how creating some of the most iconic characters on TV today has been a form of self-discovery – one that has transformed her from a military kid trying to fit in into a creative force who has fallen deeply in love with herself. Here are her songs. Riverside by Kirk Franklin & The Family Fly Me To The Moon - Frank Sinatra, Count Basie Oh My God - Jay-Z I Have Nothing - Whitney Houston You Oughta Know - Alanis Morissette She Used to Be Mine (from Waitress) - Sara Bareilles Fix You - Coldplay Listen to Natasha Rothwell’s full playlist on Spotify.
