The New MAFS Scandal That Flew Under The Radar

On the show today… In what feels like a gift from the Gods, Jennifer Coolidge is on the cover of one of W Magazine’s Directors Issue covers, and the photospread is like nothing we’ve seen before. From the star duo behind the spread to her memorable interview quotes, here’s everything you need to know. And in a rough turn of events for the couple, it’s been reported that Prince Harry and Meghan Markle are being “evicted” from their UK home by his father King Charles. It’s been reported that Prince Andrew is the proud new owner of their former home, but it’s not quite the good news he was hoping for. Plus, Married At First Sight is never a scandal-free TV-watching experience, but this week there was a very problematic set of events (hooked to a particularly problematic man) that flew under the radar, and we need to talk about it immediately. You can read Chelsea's MAFS recaps here.

Suki Waterhouse And A Viral Photo

On the show today… In case you’d forgotten, after its emotional farewell last year, Neighbours is making a return to our screens. Filming is just about to start and today another handful of cast members were confirmed to reprise their roles, including one that made history. Heartbreak High star Chloé Hayden made headlines over the weekend when she publicly spoke about Marvel Stadium staff making her feel unwelcome when she tried to access the venue's sensory room. Now we have an update on what happened next and it’s a story every person needs to hear. Plus, singer, actress, and model Suki Waterhouse is back in the headlines (and TikTok feeds) this week thanks to her upcoming role in the highly anticipated new TV show. But at the same time, a post she has since deleted about her ex Bradley Cooper has resurfaced, and it’s linked to some of the most notorious paparazzi images of all time, ones that show how our response to age gap relationships has drastically changed.

On the show today… Hello, and welcome to this very special episode of The Spill! Today we’re doing a Screen Actors Guild Awards special. Why, you ask?

And for an awards show that is billed as serious and prestigious, the SAG Awards were also a breeding ground for plenty of drama, and stars like Zendaya, Aubrey Plaza were at the center of it.

Hailey Bieber’s Looming PR Disaster

On the show today… The NAACP Image Awards, which honour outstanding achievements of people of color in motion pictures, television, music, and literature, took place over the weekend. From Angela Bassett’s iconic win and acceptance speech to Zemdaya’s headline-making red carpet look, here are all the best moments from the awards. And Paris Hilton has shared even more about her motherhood experience, explaining that her past trauma was the reason why she chose to use a surrogate and saying she has “20 boys eggs” from her IVF procedures. While it’s always helpful when another woman shares her life experiences, the conversation around Paris is highlighting the growing ‘motherhood gap’ and why these celebrations are not for everybody. Plus, Hailey Bieber is on the new cover of Vogue Australia, featured alongside an interview with Justin Bieber. The interview itself is not newsworthy, which leads us to wonder if something happened behind the scenes in the PR trenches. The magazine cover has been released at the same time as Hailey’s social accounts are being flooded with comments about the whole Selena Gomes/Kylie Jenner/Taylor Swift “fight” so let's unpack what really went on there.

THE WATCH: Your Place Or Mine

Welcome to this bonus episode of The Spill! This month we are shaking things up a bit and dissecting a new Netflix movie that has everyone talking, Your Place Or Mine starring Reese Witherspoon and Ashton Kutcher. In this episode, we hotly debate the onscreen chemistry between Reese and Ashton (look, those red carpet photos didn’t help), breakdown the plot points that really let the movie down, and explain why the nepo baby child actor somewhat resembles a loaf of bread (to be fair, only one host said this). And since Your Place Or Mine was supposed to bring back the classic rom-com, we then have a passionate discussion about the very best movies from this genre (and why this is the only time toxic men are attractive) before discussing why good rom-coms don’t get made anymore and how to bring them back.

Meghan Markle, Kate Middleton & A New Villian Story

On the show today… This week Harvey Weinstein and R. Kelly were both sentenced to extra years in prison. Their crimes have been the source of news stories, podcasts, documentaries, and movies for years, and this week more of their victims saw them held accountable for past crimes. And this week two very different stories about Meghan Markle and Kate Middleton have been doing the rounds. From an appearance at the British Academy Film Awards to a viral new episode of South Park, Meghan, and Kate are firmly back in their villain and hero roles despite the documentaries and books Harry and Meghan have released. So what has gone on behind the scenes for us to end up here, again? Plus, it’s Weekend Watch time! This week we have a new Australian series packed with pride for you to enjoy and the return of a cult classic comedy that needs to be on your TV radar.

The Story Britney Spears’ Fans Don’t Want Us To Tell

On the show today… After going to such lengths to keep her new baby’s name a secret, Paris Hilton has shared her son’s name along with the story behind it. But why did she scoop her own news story ahead of her book launch? We explain on today’s show. And today we’re joined by a special guest, Watch What Happens Live host and the founding father of the Real Housewives franchise Andy Cohen. We chat to Andy about his most surprising celebrity interviews, the one celebrity he wants to join the Real Housewives franchise, and what to do when celebrity interviews go badly. Plus, Britney Spears has posted another headline-making video to her Instagram account, prompting fans and media alike to call her everything from “erratic and unhinged” to publicly worrying about her mental health and physical safety. But behind those headlines is a story that her fans just don't want to hear, and it’s hooked on a toxic reliance on our savior complex.

Nicola Peltz, Brooklyn Beckham & A “Shitshow” Wedding

On the show today… We've already been blessed by the news that Mean Girls the musical is being made into a movie, but this week Tina Fey’s role in the film was confirmed and she’s bringing an iconic character back to the screen. Plus, we need to have a word with Liam Neeson. The actor appeared on talk show The View to promote his new movie and then turned around to Rolling Stone and called the host’s behaviour “embarrassing”. The world is very much taking his side, but we’ve decided Liam is in the wrong. And the drama around Brooklyn Beckham and Nicola Peltz’s wedding has escalated (to say the least) this week. After Nicola’s father sued the couple’s fired wedding planners, they are now counter-suing, meaning that even more scandalous text messages from the famous couple have been made public. From strange hamburgers to “guns with nets”, here are all the leaked details from the lawsuit and why no one is a winner here.

The Price Paris Hilton Won’t Pay For Motherhood

On the show today... Alec Baldwin's involuntary manslaughter charges for the fatal shooting on the set of the movie Rust in 2021 have been changed by prosecutors, drastically altering his potential prison sentence. And the British Academy Film Awards took place this week, a prestigious event that ended in a few scandalous stories. From the wrong winner being announced in one category to a performance that has gone viral for all the wrong reasons, we break down the most surprising moments from the night. Plus, Paris Hilton has explained why she went to such lengths to keep the birth of her baby a secret, even going so far as to wear a wig into the hospital for his birth. For a star who has monetized every big moment in her life until now, we think there’s a reason why she has now made such a drastic career change.

Rihanna’s Empowering Pregnancy Is Not For Everybody

On the show today… The first images from the upcoming movie Joker: Folie à Deux, the sequel to the Oscar-winning movie starring Joaquin Phoenix, have been released via Lady Gaga’s Instagram page, showing her for the first time as the iconic Harley Quinn. Although we’re now a little worried for her mental health. Plus, in a twist you probably saw coming, Jennifer Lopez and Ben Affleck just got matching love tattoos that look straight off an early 2000’s Pinterest board, which we were ok with until we clocked exactly what JLO was trying to promote. And look, it’s just the week of Rihanna, don’t try to fight it. After her epic Super Bowl halftime show, which included a pregnancy reveal, she’s now on the cover of Vogue talking run-ins with the paparazzi and her changed body. But now there’s an empowering conversation taking place around her pregnancy, but this perceived change doesn’t apply to everybody.

Em Rata, Megan Fox & Two Very Different Relationship Rules

On the show today… The highest-paid entertainers from the last year have been officially announced and we need to talk about the surprising celebrity names that popped up on the list and why. Plus, You star Penn Badgley has shared that he’s no longer happy filming sex scenes because it puts too much pressure on his marriage. His comments have ignited a conversation around how sex scenes are filmed, but there’s one vital part of the story that’s missing from this discussion. And it’s been a big few days for celebrity relationship reveals. From Emily Ratajkowski, to Megan Fox and Emma Chamberlain the rules around how high-profile relationships are hidden, broken, and launched have changed dramatically in recent days.

Inside The New Rihanna Controversies & Conspiracy Theories

On the show today… This week we were gifted a new raft of odd celebrity commercials that we need to unpack immediately, from actors revisiting their most iconic roles to Jennifer Lopez becoming a comedy genius. And after Sarah Jessica Parker posted images from the set of And Just Like That Season two, showing her character kissing John Corbett’s Aidan, the internet lost its mind. Now even more photos and videos of them together on set have emerged, and it’s just not going to end well for anyone. Plus, Rihanna’s Super Bowl halftime show has ignited some pretty passionate discussions, after the singer premiered her new baby bump during the show. From the theory that something went wrong with the big reveal, to some backlash about Kanye West and why she chose to exclude all gimmicks from her performance, there’s so much to say about Rhianna.

Mischa Barton And Leonardo DiCaprio’s Story Has Been Rewritten

On the show today... Harry Styles was the big winner at this year’s Brit Awards, taking out all four of the big categories including Artist Of The Year. But it’s one line in his acceptance speech that everyone can’t stop talking about. And the world is speculating that Megan Fox and Machine Gun Kelly have broken up, thanks to some suspicious activity on her Instagram account. While we’re pretty sure she’s just trolling us all, some dramatic history has been unearthed thanks to who she is now following. Plus, Mischa Barton is in the headlines this week…thanks to an interview she did in 2005. Her comments about Leonardo Dicaprio have gone viral but we’re now telling a very different story to the one that took place more than a decade ago, when you think back about the moment Mischa Barton’s career was destroyed.

Ruby Rose & The Veronicas Have Become A Vicious Sport

On the show today… The Last Of Us is the world’s new TV obsession and one of our favourite actresses, Melanie Lynskey, has made her first appearance on the show. Unfortunately, there’s been a wave of backlash to her casting (for the most eye-roll-inducing reason), and we need to discuss her epic response. And, Ruby Rose recently revealed she’s started writing a book, alluding to the fact that it will include a tell-all section about The Veronicas who she appeared to label 'horrific'. Her post ignited a new series of headlines about the ongoing feud between Ruby Rose and The Veronicas, but the reason why everyone is so captivated by this story comes down to one vicious reason. Plus, it’s Weekend Watch time! This week we threw about the rule book to have an off-the-rails chat about a sexy (?) new movie, complete with a surprise guest host.

Lea Michele And A Not So Innocent Comeback

On the show today… In a plot twist, a celebrity interview that actually didn’t happen is what’s making headlines this week. So now we're unpacking the whole Adam Levine/Adam Devine Call Her Daddy situation (and just the general audacity of men). And a Kate Moss movie is coming to our screens, produced by the iconic supermodel herself. So far we’ve got a cast announcement and an Oscar nominee attached, but we still have a few thoughts on why Kate’s chosen this particular way of telling her story. Plus, Lea Michele is making headlines for two different reasons this week. She’s given a new interview about her diva ways on Glee, and delivered a viral TikTok on the ongoing saga of her (alleged) illiteracy. But what we really need to talk about is how she has so cleverly pulled off a miraculous career comeback and the strings that needed to be pulled.

Those Reese Witherspoon & Ashton Kutcher Pics Are More Suspicious Than You Think

On the show today… In exciting movie news (at least for everyone who snuck horror movies into sleepovers in the late 90s) the iconic slasher I Know What You Did Last Summer could be making a big screen comeback with original stars Jennifer Love Hewitt and Freddie Prince Jr. Don’t get your hopes up just yet, but here’s what we know so far. Plus, Leonardo DiCaprio was spotted sitting next to 19-year-old model Eden Polani at a party and now the world thinks they’re dating (to be fair, there is precedent). For years, Leonardo’s career protected him from criticism about his age gap relationships, but recently that has all come crumbling down, thanks to an unlikely course. And everyone was pretty excited by the fact that Reese Witherspoon and Ashton Kutcher had teamed up for a new rom-com…until we saw the red carpet photos of them together and decided they hate each other. Now Ashton has come out with a predictable explanation around what happened, but that still doesn’t explain why these two seasoned rom-com stars decided to ignore every red carpet rule and potentially tank their new film.

The Beyonce Outrage Goes Deeper Than Harry Styles

Welcome to a special episode of The Spill! Today we’re going deep on the Grammy Awards that took place this week. From the history-making moments that were gifted to us via Viola Davis and Kim Petras, to some very awkward audience moments (here's looking at you Ben Affleck, and your sad face) we unpack the biggest and most surprising moments from the music industry's biggest night. And we need to talk about the most shocking moment from the Grammys, which was Harry Styles winning the coveted Album of the Year award over Beyoncé. Despite being the most awarded artist in Grammy’s history, the voting body's treatment of Beyonce speaks to a bigger problem within the industry.

Armie Hammer’s Viral Interview Is Missing The Real Story

On the show today… The Grammys took place today so now we need to break down the wildest red carpet looks and yes, there is a clear winner when it comes to the best-dressed star. In his memoir Spare, Prince Harry sensationally detailed how he lost his virginity (behind a pub with a bit of rump smacking, in case you forgot) but never named the woman. Now the lady in question has come forward with her side of the story, but we have some questions about her motivation. And Armie Hammer has given his first ‘tell all’ interview following a series of allegations against him that caused him to be dropped from all upcoming film roles. In the interview, Armie talks about his BDSM history and the way Hollywood turned against him, yet his explanations for what happened, and the cancelation talk around him, have missed the real story.

The Truth About MAF’s Most ‘Problematic’ Man

On the show today… Former The Crown star Helena Bonham Carter said in a recent interview that the Netflix series should end now as its no longer a historical drama. But we have a very different opinion. And we’re in the thick of the new Married At First Sight season, with the unfortunate couples now in the honeymoon phase of the so-called experiment. But this year there’s one lie about the series we need to stop telling ourselves, and while we’re at it, let’s delve into what we really mean when we call men ‘problematic’. Plus, it's Weekend Watch time! This week we have two movies to recommend to you, a classic Australian story and a new horror film that might actually be a bit of an anti-recommendation.

Brooklyn Beckham, Nicola Peltz & Leaked Text Messages

On the show today… Beyonce is officially going on tour but before you start planning to buy your Australian tickets, you need to listen to this. And Chrishell Stause and G-Flip have given their first long-form interview as a couple to Vogue Australia, and the story of how they met feels straight out of a rom-com (with a bonus appearance by Tones and I). Plus, we need to talk about our favourite nepo babies Brooklyn Beckham and Nicola Peltz, because after their lavish nuptials last year, it’s been confirmed Nicola’s family is suing the wedding planners and as a result many of her (less than flattering) text messages have been made public. So now we need to ask, for a couple who has made being married young their entire brand, why would they choose to do this?

On the show today... One of the buzziest TV shows of the year, The Last Of Us, has already been renewed for a second season following some recording-breaking first episodes. Here’s everything you need to know. And this year’s Academy Awards have been plagued with some unexpected drama in the lead-up to the ceremony.

On the show today... Blake Lively's been cast in one of the most anticipated film adaptions in years, but fans aren't happy. We discuss why it is they're upset and what we know about the book-turned movie. Plus The Bachelors has come to an end with the season finale airing last night. They took a big swing with the revamped format this year and we dissect whether we think it actually worked. And Sam Smith dropped the video for their new song over the weekend and while we are absolutely loving it, some people are tearing into it online for its ‘overly sexual undertones’.

Em Rata & The Shame Of Public Dating

And Emily Ratajkowski has released a new episode of her podcast, detailing what it’s like to date in the public eye, her complicated feelings towards the paparazzi, rumours about her, and her thoughts on Taylor Swift. It’s an interesting look into the mechanics of dating as a celebrity, but not quite as relatable as she’d like us to think. And it’s Weekend Watch time!

Khloe Kardashian & A Suspicious New Documentary

On the show today… It’s been confirmed that Taylor Swift has been officially knocked out of the Oscars race for her music video All Too Well, but in a surprise twist she could be taking home a different Academy Award. Plus, Lana Del Rey has a new album coming out and she is promoting it via a single billboard, in the town where her ex-boyfriend lives.

And the first trailer for the upcoming TV special Lamar Odom: Sex, Drugs & Kardashians has been released and we have some strong thoughts about the show profiteering off Khloe Kardashian’s name.
