The Spill

For the last two days our news feeds have been filled with nothing but pictures and videos of Taylor Swift and her 'new beau' Travis Kelce.  Rumours about their alleged romance have been bubbling away for a few weeks now, but they reached boiling point with her attending his football match on Sunday.  It's the latest in a string of moves from Taylor Swift that feels awfully familiar. Things she was basically cancelled for back in 2014. So it begs the question why are people loving it so much now in 2023? THE END BITS Subscribe to Mamamia GET IN TOUCH: Feedback? We’re listening.

Sophie Turner and Joe Jonas’ divorce just keeps getting messier, with the details of Sophie’s lawsuit against Jo emerging over the last fews days. The headlines have been salacious with claims Joe ‘abducted’ the kids, that Sophie was blindsided by the divorce, and of course the rumour that the end of their relationship was caused by something Jo saw on a ring camera. But what’s the real story? Thankfully our host Chelsea McLaughlan has read every word of their divorce documents and is here to set the record straight.

Emma Roberts is once again the subject of negative headlines – this time, thanks to behaviour on the set of Ryan Murphy's American Horror Story. Roberts has privately apologised for transphobic behaviour towards her American Horror Story: 1984 co-star Angelica Ross, after Ross recalled a number of on-set incidents on social media this week. Today we explain what happened and why this story seems to have quietly been swept under the rug.  Plus it's Weekend Watch time! And we've got one high brow and one low brow recommendation, so there's something for everyone. THE END BITS Subscribe to Mamamia GET IN TOUCH: Feedback? We’re listening.

Yesterday Sophie Turner just about broke the internet when she was photographed in New York, arm-in-arm Taylor Swift (AKA her ex-husbands ex-girlfriend).  People are calling it ‘the greatest PR move of all time’, but our host Laura doesn't necessarily agree. Today we examine the photos and whether they prove that Joe Jonas' PR campaign against Sophie failed. THE END BITS Subscribe to Mamamia GET IN TOUCH: Feedback? We’re listening.

The Kardashian's have built themselves a mighty media empire, but according to an upcoming documentary it could all be about to crumble with the show claiming to have 'never-before-seen footage that the famous family don't want people to see'.  Now I know what you're thinking: 'We've literally seen one of these gals pull a child out of herself in a birthing suite, surely we've seen everything there is to see?' Well that's what we're going to discuss today.   What we know for sure though is that this is the first real time the Kardashians haven’t been 100% in control of telling their own story...

There's been A LOT of celebrity apology videos of late. In the last week alone we've seen Mila Kunis and Ashton Kutcher post one, and Drew Barrymore too. But we've noticed a hidden detail in these videos (and pretty much every celebrity apology video ever) that undermines everything they're saying. Once we've told you you won't be able to unsee it...

It’s been a huge weekend of pop culture news… From Hugh Jackman and Deborra-Lee Furness announcing the end of their 27-year-long relationship, to Drew Barrymore backflipping on her decision to resume filming of her talkshow during the writers strike. On top of all that, an explosive joint investigation by the UK media has levelled multiple sexual assault allegations against comedian comedian Russell Brand. We unpack the claims, as well as the online persona Brand has curates which seems to have made him uncancellable, even in the face of this exposè. If this episode has raised any issues for you, or if you just feel like you need to speak to someone, please call 1800 RESPECT (1800 737 732) – the national sexual assault, domestic and family violence counselling service.

We've been covering the Hollywood writers strike for a while now, from show cancellations to what's happening at the picketing lines. But this week it's taken a very unexpected turn... with red carpets and movie sets on pause the celebrities are having to get day jobs.  Sure, they're not day jobs like we have (no one's manning the Maccas drive-thru), but the endorsement and even product placement deals they're striking to make some extra cash have hit another level. From Ben Affleck, to Lady Gaga, and even Nicole Kidman at the US Open, they're all seeking some secondary income it seems. Plus it's Friday which means Weekend Watch time! And this week we have not one, not two, but THREE recommendations for you. THE END BITS Subscribe to Mamamia GET IN TOUCH: Feedback? We’re listening.

As you’re probably aware (thanks to your TikTok and Instagram feeds), the MTV VMAs went down yesterday with pretty much everyone who’s anyone in the music biz in attendance. There were awards, there were performances, there were surprise reunions of iconic 90s boy bands… but mostly there was just standard award show stuff being captured on stage. But we’re more interested in what was happening off stage! On today’s show we’re going to run you through all the juicy things that happened backstage and in the audience, as well as why the most important award of the night was unexpectedly cut from the broadcast.
