Britney vs. Justin - 'Selfish' Edition

Justin Timberlake's musical comeback is off to a rocky start. The “SexyBack” singer is about to release "Everything I Thought It Was," his first new album in six years. On Thursday, he dropped his new single "Selfish," which quickly climbed to number one on iTunes. But in the wake of all the dirty deets Britney Spears shared about JT in her memoir, "The Woman in Me," her fans were determined to knock him down the charts. So they rallied to stream and buy her 2011 song which is also called "Selfish." This put their queen at the top of the charts and bumped Justin's single down to #3. But with the Princess of Pop now speaking out on Justin's new music, we'll see if her fans continue their games when JT's full album drops in March!Listen to Rich and Daily on the Wondery App or wherever you get your podcasts.

Taylor Swift Dragged into Her Deep Fake 'Era'

Taylor Swift has got herself some new “bad blood.” Deep fake and AI-generated images of the “Cruel Summer” singer have gone viral on social media platforms. Not only were the images not - we repeat, NOT - actually of Taylor, many of them were sexually explicit. Swifties have rallied behind their queen in criticizing the online sharing of these deep fakes. And now, there are rumors that Taylor is so pissed about these AI pics that she’s considering legal action. So should Tay try to sue? Or should she just “shake it off?”\Listen to Rich and Daily on the Wondery App or wherever you get your podcasts. You can listen to all episodes ad-free on Wondery+.

Sofía Vergara's Dealbreaker Led to Divorce

Sofía Vergara is getting personal. In a new interview with Spanish newspaper El País, the former “Modern Family” star reveals the real reason her seven-year marriage to actor Joe Manganiello went belly up.

Was 'Barbie' Not 'Kenough' for the Oscars?

The nominations for the 96th Annual Academy Awards were announced yesterday, and in spite of some history-making nods (here’s lookin’ at you Lily Gladstone and Colman Domingo!), there were two major snubs that have everyone talking. Despite arguably being the biggest hit of ’23 (not to mention being a true cultural sensation), “Barbie” director Greta Gerwig and lead actress Margot Robbie were passed over. And co-stars Ryan Gosling and America Ferrera (who did get acting noms for the movie) are not happy about it. And they’re letting everyone know how they feel. Looks like life in plastic isn’t so fantastic after all...Listen to Rich and Daily on the Wondery App or wherever you get your podcasts. You can listen to all episodes ad-free on Wondery+.

Elle King’s Dolly Tribute Goes (Deep) South

Elle King might want a do-over. Or at least something for a hangover. On Friday, the Grammy-nominated “Ex’s & Oh’s” singer hit the Grand Ole Opry stage as part of a tribute concert honoring Dolly Parton on her 78th birthday. But Elle’s b-day tribute went off-the-rails fast. She stumbled and stammered her way through Dolly’s song “Marry Me” before finally admitting to the crowd that she was “hammered.” And now Elle’s getting blowback from Dolly fans everywhere. Can she bounce back from this drunken fiasco, or is this just country being country?Listen to Rich and Daily on the Wondery App or wherever you get your podcasts.

Kim Kardashian Gets Roasted for Tanning

Kim Kardashian is getting burned online. After participating in a viral TikTok trend (“I’m Kim Kardashian, of course I have...“), the SKKN mogul showed off her luxe office and personal tanning bed. And because it's Kim we're dealing with, the video caused lots of backlash online. Allure magazine even wrote an op-ed criticizing her tanning ways, citing a ton of medical stats to back it up! Kim fired back saying she tans to help with her psoriasis. So does Kim deserve the blistering online criticism, or is the backlash psor-ely missing the point?Listen to Rich and Daily on the Wondery App or wherever you get your podcasts.

Richard Simmons Has a Bone to (Bio)Pick with Pauly Shore

Looks like Pauly Shore's got a new movie project. The “Encino Man” actor is set to star as famed fitness guru Richard Simmons in a new biopic. Pauly has said for awhile that he’d like to play the tank-top-and-short-shorts-wearing man who gave us “Sweatin’ to the Oldies.” And fans online have been praying for this too. Looks like their dreams will be answered. But Richard, who’s been totally off the grid for the last decade, has now broken his silence and wants to make it clear he’s not involved in the project. So will it still “work out” for Pauly to play Richard, or should he be sweating it out?Listen to Rich and Daily on the Wondery App or wherever you get your podcasts.

Kanye's New Teeth - 'Ye' or Nay?

Kanye West is back on his bullshit. The rapper/mogul is switching to heavy metal…in his mouth. Kanye shared pics to his social media showing that he’s upgraded his teeth from plain old outside bones to a shiny new titanium set. Ye is citing an old James Bond villain as his inspiration, and people are chomping at the bit to weigh in. The new mouth reportedly came with a price tag of $850,000. Now that’s a rumor we can sink our teeth into.Listen to Rich and Daily on the Wondery App or wherever you get your podcasts. You can listen to all episodes ad-free on Wondery+.

Lindsay Lohan Doesn't Think 'Mean Girls' Joke is 'Fetch'

Normally on Wednesdays we wear pink, but today we're seeing red. Back in 2004, Lindsay Lohan became a bonafide star thanks to her smash hit movie "Mean Girls." Over the weekend, a movie-musical reboot of the film hit theaters. And even though Lindsay's been showing her support for the new movie, she's now making it clear she's unhappy about one joke in the reboot. Some people online think this is because of the time the dig was publicly used against her by oil heir Brandon Davis back in 2006. So do we have ourselves a real life "Mean Girls" moment coming to life?Listen to Rich and Daily on the Wondery App or wherever you get your podcasts.
