Kylie Jenner and Timothee Chalamet’s Sexy Weekend Is Ruined & Lady Gaga’s Devilish Performance

On the show today, The White Lotus star Aimee Lou Wood was parodied on a recent episode of Saturday Night Live and she called out the performance as cruel and cheap. But what’s just as interesting is how another cast member’s behaviour has further fuelled rumours of a feud. And Coachella kicked off this weekend, bringing together an assortment of our favourite celebrities and pop stars, and now we need to talk through the biggest moments and scandals. From two pop girlies with a difficult past reuniting on stage to the reason why Lady Gaga was accused of a bit of devil worship and the stars of our favourite TV show sharing a cute moment in the crowd, there are so many moments we need to discuss. Plus, Kylie Jenner and Timothee Chalamet were all set for a sexy weekend at Coachella (we saw the photos) but then Timothee brought along a questionable object that demanded our immediate attention.
