2. As HBO‟s continues to earn mixed reviews from viewers and critics,
one character introduced in the show‟s second episode was met with
nearly universal praise and curiosity: Suzanna Son „s Chloe.
The Idol centers around Jocelyn ( Lily-Rose Depp), an infamous pop
star who is still dealing with the repercussions of her emotional
breakdown following the death of her mother a year prior. A seedy Los
Angeles club owner and cult leader, Tedros ( Abel “The Weeknd”
Tesfaye), enters her life and starts leading her down a dangerous path.
Son‟s character, Chloe, joined the show‟s storyline as a member of
Tedros‟ cult. At the end of the second episode, Tedros arrives at
Jocelyn‟s house with a few members of his group, including Chloe, who
promptly strips and giddily jumps into one of Jocelyn‟s two pools.
Chloe then proceeds to traipse through Jocelyn‟s house and try on her
clothes until she stumbles upon the pop star and Tedros having sex.
She doesn‟t leave but, instead, watches their interaction.
3. Chloe‟s most notable moment came at the end of the episode, when she
takes to one of Jocelyn‟s pianos to play a haunting tune. Jocelyn is
struck by Chloe‟s voice as she performs a song about a broken family,
which seemingly nods to the show‟s cult plot.
Like Jocelyn, viewers were immediately enraptured by Chloe‟s singing,
with many fans taking to social media to share their praise and ask
about the actress behind the voice.
4. Prior to appearing on The Idol, Son was an aspiring singer, though she
later transitioned to acting and earned her breakout role in 2021‟s Red
Rocket. Her career skyrocketed from there, landing her the part of
Chloe.
From the beginning of her career to what she‟s said about The Idol,
here‟s everything there is to know about Suzanna Son.
She was originally an aspiring singer
After her impressive performance, fans of The Idol may not find it a
surprise that Son comes from a singing background.
5. Son grew up in Seattle, Washington, and from a young age, her mom
suspected she could sing well, though she was too embarrassed to
perform for her, she shared in a “Get To Know Me” video for Max.
“My mom kind of knew I could sing but I just didn‟t want to sing for
her because she would make me sing for everyone,” Son said. “It‟s
embarrassing!”
6. She cites Elton John as her icon, and said she would rather be a pop
star than a rock star. While she performs more indie music now, Son
started out as a big Powerpuff Girls and Hannah Montana fan, with her
first CD being of the former‟s soundtrack and her first concert being
the latter‟s Best of Both Worlds tour in 2009.
Son also briefly posted covers of songs on her YouTube channel,
though only two videos remain on her account.
She started pursuing acting in college
7. In her video for Max, Son shared that she first joined theater while she
was a student at Cornish College of the Arts, and her love of acting
bloomed from there.
“When I got to college, I finally joined theater and I finally got into
those weird classes about finding your fifth limb,” she said. “It really
helped me get out of my shell and stop caring so much about what
other people think and just made me go for it.”
Her first big break was actually a chance encounter
Son‟s big break came when she worked on 2021‟s Red Rocket — a role
she got from a serendipitous encounter.
In a 2022 interview, Son told that director Sean Baker scouted her
outside a movie theater and asked her to audition.
“I was seeing Don’t Worry, He Won’t Get Far on Foot,” she recalled. “I
was on a date, and he asked me to hold his cigarette, and I was very
upset about that because that‟s very stinky. So I was holding his
cigarette kind of away from me while he was on the phone. Sean and
his wife, Sammy, just came up to me and asked if I‟d like to audition.”
The rest was history for Son, who starred as Strawberry, a donut
salesperson who gets wrapped up in the world of the film‟s central
character, Mikey.
8. ‘The Idol’ is her second major role
Though reported in April 2022 that Son would be stepping away from
the show amid the creative change with former director Amy Seimetz
leaving, Son revealed she was still part of it in July 2022.
The actress posted a teaser of the show to her Instagram, writing,
“From the sick and twisted minds of Sam Levinson and The Weeknd,
#THEIDOL is coming soon ���.”
9. A month later in August 2022, Son posted a behind-the-scenes
photo of her character from the show and shared her excitement in the
caption.
“I can‟t wait for you to see this on @hbomax “soon!” � what an
incredible group of people to make something with. I feel so lucky. ❤
�,” she wrote.
Tesfaye commented his excitement with a simple, “Suzie ! ❤ �.”
Son made her debut in the second episode of the show, and the song
she performed, “Family,” was released on streaming services the same
day. Less than a week after its release, the song already had over 1
million streams on Spotify.
She loves cats
10. In her interview with Max, Son revealed that she prefers to be more of
a homebody with her cats. She shared that one of her favorite things to
do is “playing a little GTA with my cat, in my house.”
11. “I have a blind cat named Church Lady and another cat named Howie,”
she said.
Later in the interview, Son doubled down on her answer, saying that
she “hates parties” and much prefers “staying in” over going out.
