There’s Something Suspicious About Em Rata & Pete Davidson’s Relationship Timeline

On the show today…. The Hollywood awards season has kicked off with the announcement of the film nominees for The Independent Spirit Awards. The Indies are usually a good indicator of which movies will dominate awards season and it now appears the biggest frontrunner for the Oscars has already been knocked out. And Will Smith is on the promotional trail for his new movie Emancipation, his first release since the infamous Oscars slap earlier this year. In a recent interview, the actor revealed his biggest fear about the release and it says a lot about changing cancel culture in Hollywood. Plus, in a page taken straight from the internet’s dream journal, Pete Davidson and Emily Ratajkowski have made a very public appearance together just one month into their suspected relationship. Yet, when you look back at the first photos of them together as a couple, there’s something very suspicious about their relationship timeline.

The Story Behind Kim Kardashian’s New Fashion Controversy

On the show today… Jennifer Lopez is releasing a new album and one of the songs will be dedicated to the (surprise) love of her life, Ben Affleck. Here’s everything you need to know. Plus, over the weekend it was confirmed that Allison Langdon will replace Tracy Grimshaw as the host of A Current Affair, with Sarah Abo stepping into her role on the Today show. But before the news was announced, a video of Allison and Tracy went viral and it’s only now been addressed. And, in one of the most controversial fashion stories of the year, Balenciaga has apologised for their recent campaign and removed all traces of the images from their social accounts after an avalanche of backlash. The public then demanded that Kim Kardashian weigh in on the situation and she has only just released a statement, which has changed the dynamic around celebrity and fashion partnerships.

How A New Harry Styles & Olivia Wilde Conspiracy Was Born

On the show today... As anyone who attempted to score tickets to the Taylor Swift Eras Tour would already know, the situation turned into a complete disaster. Now the US Senate antitrust is holding a hearing to work out exactly what happened.

The allegations paint a brutal picture of how Kanye behaved while working with the sportswear company. Plus, it’s been reported by some pretty reliable sources that Olivia Wilde and Harry Styles have ended their two-year relationship. And while we can all agree a PR stunt was not behind this news, Kendall Jenner is now being named as the key person in a brand new conspiracy theory surrounding their break-up.

Lily-Rose Depp & The Unspoken Truth About Nepo Babies

Peter has shared the one Project departure that shocked him, off the back of the first replacement being announced. Here’s what you need to know.

Plus, thanks to a new interview with Lily Rose Depp, a series of TikToks by Ireland Baldwin, and a searing post about the modeling industry from Vittoria Ceretti, the conversation around Holywood’s nepotism babies has gone into overdrive.

The Staying Power of Chris Brown

We discuss what that choice says about priorities and our perceptions of success. Plus Kelly Rowland's made headlines after praising Chris Brown's American Music Award win yesterday.

Lisa Wilkinson & The Takedown Of TV Golden Girls

On the show today… After abruptly calling off her Las Vegas residency earlier this year, making international headlines, Adele has returned to the stage of the Colosseum at Ceasar’s Palace. Here’s what went down at her first very tearful performance. And the first episode of the Kath & Kim retrospective aired last night, but it has been met with very mixed (mainly disappointed) reactions. So now we need to unpack where it all went wrong and why it might have damaged the legacy of this beloved show forever. Plus, Lisa Wilkinson announced last night that she is leaving The Project. During her announcement, she name-checked a number of high-profile Australian women in media who have also decided to leave their jobs this year and called out the rise in ‘targeted toxicity’. This leads us to talk about why we’re seeing a real thirst for the takedown of TV golden girls.

Jennifer Aniston And The Worst Thing A Woman Can Be

On the show today… The long-awaited Black Panther: Wakanda Forever is out in cinemas today, so we need to give you a (spoiler free) run-down of how the film honored the late Chadwick Boseman and how the cast beautifully came together to remember him while making the movie.And Millie Bobby Brown made headlines this week when she said she’d love to play Britney Spears in a biopic. Britney responded by reminding us that ‘she’s not dead yet' and it’s led to an interesting discussion about who is allowed to tell these stories on screen. Plus, it’s the new celebrity profile everyone is talking about. Jennifer Aniston is Allure’s new cover star and for the first time she talks about undergoing IVF while the world assumed her two famous husbands had divorced her because she refused to have children. It feels like this should be the end of the prying headlines about her life, but unfortunately, she’s waded right into the territory of the worst thing a woman can be.

Harry Styles And The Sex Question We Shouldn’t Ask

On the show today… Netflix has just released the trailer for the third and final season of the hit series Dead to Me, and it looks like the show is going out with a bang. Along with the trailer comes the full story of what Christina Applegate went through filming the final episodes, following a serious health diagnosis. Here’s what you need to know. Plus, in movie news, James Cameron has released the first full-length trailer for his upcoming film, Avatar: The Way of Water. Now, we were initially skeptical that this franchise needed multiple sequels nearly a decade after it was first released, but footage from the trailer and the story behind it has changed our minds. And we need to have a discussion about why the public is demanding that actors disclose their sexuality when before taking on queer roles. This week a Netflix star was outed against his will and a conversation around Harry Styles playing a gay character has bubbled to the surface, pushing us to have a complicated conversation around the questions we shouldn't be asking.

Gwyneth Paltrow And A Cowgirl Sex Machine

On the show today… We don’t mean to alarm anyone, but Bridget Jones's Diary author Helen Fielding has confirmed that she is working on the fourth movie in the franchise, and Renée Zellweger seems keen to reprise her role. Here’s everything you need to know. Plus, the reign of Taylor Swift is at an all-time high. She’s now the first artist to dominate the entire top 10 section of The Billboard Top 100 chart and has announced her world tour. But there’s one conversion around her new album Midnights that we cannot afford to forget. And it’s the most magical time of the year because Gwyneth Paltrow’s website Goop has released its annual holiday gift guide and it is just packed with weird and wonderful items. Now we need to talk through the overpriced items that you definitely shouldn't send to your friends and family this Christmas.

The Disappointment Of Lindsay Lohan’s Comeback

On the show today… The Australian Press Council has ruled that The Sydney Morning Herald's story outing Rebel Wilson and her new girlfriend "intruded on her reasonable expectations of privacy". Now Rebel has responded with the true fallout from the viral story. And Halloween might be over for another year, but two interesting celebrity stories have emerged from the spooky day. One involves Kim Kardashian and a very unfortunate birthday party, while the other is about Ryan Gosling and some Australian trick-or-treating. Plus, after nearly a decade, Lindsay Lohan has appeared on a glossy magazine cover and profile. The Cosmopolitan cover was hailed as her big comeback, but when you actually read the interview, it appears Lindsay is still not allowed to speak, making her return to the spotlight disappointing and confusing.

The Real Story Behind Gisele & Tom’s Separate Break Up Posts

On the show today… In truly devastating news for fans of the hit Netflix show The Witcher, Henry Cavill has announced he is leaving the series after the third season, with Liam Hemsworth taking over his lead role of Geralt of Rivia. Fans are furious, so now we need to talk about the real story behind the recast. Plus, Halloween weekend gifted us a flood of celebrity costume photos, so we’re here to break down the weirdest and wildest looks, and discuss why some celebrities missed the actual Halloween brief. And after almost a year of planted stories, Gisele Bundchen and Tom Brady have officially announced their divorce via separate (but very strategic) statements. The PR around their high-profile separation has been almost flawlessly executed, but it’s also led us to uncover the secret inner workings of a celebrity divorce.

Harry Styles, A Sexy Octopus, And The Price Of Fame

On the show today… We need to talk about some important news surrounding one of The Spill’s favourite shows, Girls5eva. The series is moving to Netflix from rival streamer Peacock for its third season, in a move that’s been labeled a shock as it’s one of the first original series to move between rival streaming services. Here’s the theory behind it. And Harry Styles has released the music video for Music For A Sushi Restaurant, and let's just say it’s left us both mesmerized and a little confused. All thanks to his presence as an octopus/mermaid musician. There’s a much deeper message behind the video, and a reason it was released today, that we’ll talk about as soon as we get past the tentacles… And it’s Weekend Watch time! Today we have two new movies to recommend to you, a new true crime watch and a groundbreaking new romantic comedy.

The Taylor Swift Conversation We Never Wanted To Have

On the show today… Prince Harry's controversial new memoir is now slated to be released early next year, according to a report from The New York Times. The book was initially delayed due to the death of Queen Elizabeth, but now the story around the royal family’s reaction appears to have changed. Plus, Kim Petras has become the first out trans artist to hit number one on Billboard Hot 100 with her hit song Unholy. So now we need to talk about Kim Petras’ rise to fame, the importance of her Coconuts song, and why she’s unfortunately about to be knocked off the charts. And Taylor Swift has removed a scene from her Anti-Hero music video after her use of the word ‘fat’ sparked allegations that she was being fatphobic. But the conversation is nowhere near that simple. There are two very different sides to the debate around Taylor Swift and her use of the word fat, and thanks to the scene being cut, it’s led us to a conversation we never wanted to have.

We’ve been given our first look at the new Kath & Kim series (and we’re on board with it) along with The Claremont Murders, a new drama based on one of Western Australia’s most notorious crimes and featuring an all-star cast. And Adidas has ended its partnership with Kanye West, following calls from both the public and a slew of famous names to take a stand against the musician and his antisemitic views. Now we need to talk about the real fallout from this and why it’s not being viewed as something to celebrate. Plus, the past week has been filled with allegations that Travis Scott cheated on Kylie Jenner, and the timeline for this story is filled with viral TikToks, passionate Instagram rants, and a statement of denial that doesn’t sound quite true. But the bigger story here is how Kylie Jenner is now viewed in the public eye and the fallout seems to be all on her.

An Unspeakable Celebrity Conspiracy Theory

On the show today…. We have something a little different for you! On today’s show, we’re joined by Lowbrow host Shannen Findlay to discuss three wild celebrity conspiracy theories that don’t often make the headlines but have some facts to (potentially) back them up. From evidence that Britney Spears was a secret government operative whose biggest scandals were not real, to a theory about Nicki Minaj and Jay Z that will ensure you never listen to their music the same way again, let's delve into some topics that are normally off the table. And we need to get to the bottom of an unspeakable celebrity conspiracy theory about Taylor Swift, Harry Styles, and…murder? It’s hard to believe but apparently sog lyrics don’t lie.

James Corden, Bad Behaviour And A Man Named Keith

On the show today… This week we got a little spoiler for an upcoming episode of The Kardashians when images of Kourtney Kardashian and Travis Barker engaging in a very romantic moment were captured by none other than Rebel Wilson. Plus, thanks to the disastrous Don’t Worry Darling press tour, and now her former nanny giving tell-all interviews about her life, Olivia Wilde is having a pretty rough time. So when she stepped on stage to be honored as one of Elle’s Women in Hollywood this week, she gave a very telling speech about how she’s really feeling. So let's unpack her words and why she described her industry as a “ burning hellfire of the misogyny”. And James Corden appears to be at war with a man named Keith. This week Keith, who owns the celebrity hotspot restaurant Balthazar in New York, posted a scathing statement to Instagram calling James “the most abusive customer to my Balthazar servers since the restaurant opened 25 years ago.” Now the story has taken another unexpected twist, but it also has to be said that the hate for James Corden began long ago.

Hailey Bieber, Selena Gomez And A Carefully Staged Photo

On the show today… The first trailer for The Challenge Australia, the show labeled “the most cut-throat competition the world has ever seen” is here and it’s just a mash-up of reality TV stars seemingly being tortured. And for decades, Bill Murray was one of Hollywood’s most loveable celebrities. Then a series of allegations, from women who said he was inappropriate on film sets, started surfacing. Now Seth Green has recounted a truly disturbing story where Bill Murray threw him into a bin when he was a child. Will this be what turns the tide against Bill Murray, or do people have fatigue with seeing their favourite stars continually fall from grace? Plus, Selena Gomez and Hailey Bieber posed for a series of photos together, and we’re not exaggerating when we say it seems to have caused a global panic attack. But there’s so much more to this story than just a seemingly candid photo, and it has to do with branding and a shift in celebrity tactics.

Here’s everything you need to know about the documentary and its release day. In sad (and somewhat strange) news, Paris Hilton’s dog Diamond Baby has been missing for more than two weeks, but there’s now been a new twist in the missing dog’s case thanks to an Australian pet physic. So how legit is this? Allow us to investigate. And Madonna has caused some controversy thanks to a TikTok she posted where she seemingly came out as gay. It appears many people are not across her decades-long legacy with the LGBTQIA+ community, so we need to talk through her greatest hits. At the same time, Madonna is being policed for not acting her age on social media, and we have some strong thoughts about that.

We Need To Talk About (The Other) Beckhams

On the show today… It’s been confirmed that Tom Cruise, the man who will not allow himself to die in movies, is planning to shoot his next film in actual space. And we just have some questions about the logistics of that. And Kanye West has had his Instagram and Twitter accounts restricted following a series of posts from the musician that included racial abuse. After Fox aired a two-part interview with Kanye that included some truly troubling moments, it’s time to take another look at how his behavior is being covered. Plus, Nicola and Brooklyn Peltz Beckham are back in the headlines, thanks to a slightly unhinged Vogue interview, and as usual, it’s not looking good for the young lovers. As we question Brooklyn’s weird obsession with physical clothing labels, we need to talk about the young Hollywood couples who are making marriage their entire brand.

The Worst Brad Pitt Allegations Yet

On the show today… In important, breaking news, the first exterior scenes for And Just Like That have started filming and we’ve been given a glimpse of Carrie Bradshaw’s new outfits. Looks like we’ll all be carrying pigeon-shaped bags in the future, so that’s something to look forward to… Plus, it’s been reported that longtime couple Gisele Bündchen and Tom Brady are set to divorce. At the same time, Gisele has given an interview where she essentially talks about giving up her career to support her sport star husband, and it really says something about career inequality. And a new court filing from Angelina Jolie has unearthed some seriously violent allegations against Brad Pitt, where she alleges he physically assaulted her and their children and left her with injuries. As these new allegations come to light, we once again have to ask, what will it take for Brad Pitt to no longer be seen as Hollywood’s ultimate golden boy?

Welcome to this bonus episode of The Spill! This episode of The Watch is all about The Bear, the TV series set in a Chicago kitchen that we didn't expect to be so captivated by.⁠ Laura & Chelsea talk through the grittiness and greasiness of the kitchen drama, the characters they loved (and despised), and the scene that almost made them both switch off for good.

The Hailey Bieber Interview That Shouldn’t Have Happened

On the show today… Stan has announced the cast for its upcoming satirical comedy series C*A*U*G*H*T which will see some major stars descending on Australia to film. Plus, in what might be a record turnaround, there's already a film about the Johnny Depp & Amber Heard trial ready for release, and we have a trailer. It's the latest production spurring conversations about the ethics of dramatising real-life events and we have conflicting thoughts. And it's the interview everyone's been waiting for: Hailey Bieber talking about her husband Justin Bieber's relationship with Selena Gomez for the first - and last - time. Hailey denied cheating allegations and spoke about the toll fan hate has taken on her, but the interview has definitely not achieved what Hailey hoped it would.

Plus, Gwyneth Paltrow has marked her 50th birthday with a nude photoshoot.

And there's a new celebrity cheating scandal making waves today.

Meghan Markle And A Damning New Book

On the show today… Hannah Gadsby, one of Australia's best comedians and performers, has signed a multi-title deal with Netflix. And it includes a new initiative that is set to change “a notoriously transphobic industry.” Plus, we’re not above talking about the saucy new rumour that Emily Ratajkowski and Brad Pitt are currently hooking up. Is it damage control or just a post-divorce fling? These are the important issues we must now discuss. And a new book is set to be released in the next week entitled Courtiers: The Hidden Power Behind the Crown, penned by a famed royal journalist. Among the stories about the royal family are some pretty damning allegations against Meghan Markle, and there seems to be a reason these stories are resurfacing right now.
