The Spill

On the show today… Filming has begun on the Disney+ Australian event series The Clearing. The series is inspired by the real-life Australian cult The Family and its founder Anne Hamilton-Byrne, who is one of the rare female cult leaders in history. Here’s everything we know about the all-star Australian cast. And The Hills star Audrina Patridge has released a new memoir chronicling all the secrets behind the iconic reality TV show. The book includes some off-script stories about her castmates and it’s potentially changed the way we see the show. Plus, Beauty and the Geek Australia is currently airing and pulling in a large and devoted audience each night. But as the makeover episodes start to air this week, we’re being forced to confront a very problematic side of the show and what it represents.

And Britney Spears is reportedly back in the studio and about to relaunch her music career via a collaboration with Elton John. The news comes at the same time as the singer, still newly free from her longtime conservatorship, released a series of text messages that she claims is proof her mother Lyn Spears abused her. Plus, right now we’re seeing the resurgence of British supermodel Kate Moss, thanks to her new role as Diet Coke’s creative director (yes, we have questions about this). In a rare new interview, Kate has explained the stories behind her biggest career controversies, along with talking through her worst modeling experiences, and it’s left us very divided over her complicated legacy.

On the show today… The final episode of Neighbours will air this week and a lot of famous faces are returning to their soap opera roots for the big event, including Delta Goodrem, Natalie Imbruglia, Holly Valance, and even Margot Robbie. Here’s everything we know so far. Plus, Comic-Con International was held in San Diego this weekend, one of the largest comics and pop culture events in the world. It’s an event TV and movie studios save their most important release news for, so let's talk through the biggest and most surprising reveals to come out of Comic-Con. And after a COVID-induced hiatus, Splendour in the Grass returned this weekend and things seemed to be looking up for Australia’s hard-hit music industry. But thanks to an unprecedented rainfall situation, the worst in the 21-year history of the event, shows were cancelled, campsites were destroyed and hundreds of festival goers were left without transport. Here we unpack what really went on at Splendour and if it’s fair to call it ‘Australia’s Fyre Festival’.

On the show today… A judge has decided to not extend a temporary restraining order placed against Ricky Martin by his nephew after the relative dropped his allegations, with the singer saying he will now start his "healing process". And Kylie Jenner has been facing criticism this week for being out of touch and using her private jet to fly short distances. There's now a classic Kardashian damage control story playing out to try to fix Kylie's image, but the flurry of headlines say so much more about how the members of this famous family fall in and out of public favour. Plus, it’s Weekend Watch time and this week we need to talk about two buzzy new movies! There's the murder mystery book adaptation everyone is talking about and a high stakes action blockbuster starring a lot of familiar faces.

On the show today… Lizzo covers the new issue of Elle UK, which features a stunning photoshoot and insight into her new music. But it’s her comments about her body and social media that really deserve the most attention. Plus, Brad Pitt is on a promotional tour for his new movie and his latest outing saw him sport a (wrinkled) skirt. The pictures have launched a slew of jokes and opinions and a very valid conversation about gender-fluid dressing, but we think there’s a hidden agenda behind this new look. And we’re joined by The Real Housewives of Beverly Hills star Kyle Richards to talk about the new season of the hit franchise, the toll reality TV takes on her life behind the scenes, and what to expect from upcoming episodes.

On the show today… Our favourite show about problematic rich people being trapped in all-inclusive resorts is finally back, with White Lotus season two currently filming. Here’s everything we know about the new season. Plus, after weeks of speculation about her love life, Chelsea Handler has confirmed that she has split with her partner of one year, comedian Jo Koy…via an anniversary video that was prerecorded. Her words have posed an interesting question about why celebrity break-up announcements are spiraling. And it’s the movie everyone is talking about. The new adaptation of Persuasion, starring Dakota Johnson, has dropped on Netflix and the response has been overwhelming. It’s been labelled the most hated movie on Netflix while also sitting at number one, so let's talk about the real story behind this viral movie.

Here’s everything you need to know about the movie that’s already pulling in Oscar buzz. Plus, someone is going to have to step up and marry Chris Evans. The Captain America star said he’s “lasered focused” on finding a long-term romantic partner, which got us thinking about how he’s escaped the ‘unlucky in love’ tag for so many years and why his words feel so unusual in the Hollywood landscape. And an exact has been published from the upcoming book Revenge: Meghan, Harry and the war between the Windsors, otherwise known as the book “Meghan Markle is dreading’ being released.

And Jennifer Lopez and Ben Affleck have joined the list of celebrities opting for low-key Las Vegas weddings, according to a new newsletter penned by Mrs Jennifer Lynn Affleck.

Now she’s given a tell-all interview about what really happened, but the most haunting part of her tragedy has almost been forgotten.

Plus, Victoria Beckham is Vogue Australia’s new cover star and in an extensive interview titled VB forever: Victoria Beckham is embracing her full self, she addresses David Beckham’s controversial interview about her diet and her relationship with the Spice Girls fame. So here’s a question, when did Victoria Beckham get so self-aware? And Lindsay Lohan has confirmed she’s now a married woman, just months after her fellow early noughties It Girls Paris Hilton and Britney Spears also shared their joyful wedding images. And while their collective happy news is cause for celebration, we’ve noticed a troubling trend fuelling the media coverage and commentary about their ‘happy endings’.

On the show today… After more than a decade away from our screens, Australian Idol is making a comeback and applications are now open for anyone who is keen to be the next Guy Sebastian or Jessica Mauboy. But the age range for audition applications has us raising our eyebrows. Plus, Kourtney Kardashian and her husband Travis Barker have both released statements about his recent hospitalisation and health issues that have been making headlines since last week. In her statement, Kourtney also called out the paparazzi who sold false images of her during the ordeal. And our favorite 90s actress turned Netflix star Winona Ryder is Harpers Bazaar’s new cover star with an interview entitled Winona Ryder Is Still Processing. In the cover story, Winona talks about going from being one of Hollywood's most critically acclaimed and bankable stars to being told: "you’re not even part of the conversation". And yet this interview barely touches on what really happened to Winona Ryder and why she was effectively banished from the industry for many years.

On the show today… After a very public court case, Guy Sebastian's former manager Titus Day has been found guilty of embezzling more than $620,000 of his earnings. Here’s everything you need to know. And this might be the weirdest celebrity career pivot we’ve seen yet.

On the show… Musician R Kelly has been sentenced to 30 years in prison for sex trafficking women and girls. The Grammy-winning singer-songwriter, whose full name is Robert Sylvester Kelly, was also convicted of racketeering and sex trafficking last year. Plus, the first trailer for Julia Roberts and George Clooney's new rom-com Ticket To Paradise has been released, and we have a lot to say about it. The trailer has arrived at the same time news broke that another famous rom-com leading lady is coming out of retirement after nearly a decade away the scene. So what’s driving this new wave of rom-coms? And Chris Pratt has given a new interview to Men’s Health addressing the growing hatred against him for the first time. In the interview, he talks about the backlash regarding his religion, family, and body but when it comes to the growing dislike of Chris Pratt, the story goes further than this.

On the show today… If there’s one fabulous Kardashian party we dream of being inhibited to, it’s a North West birthday extravagance. Let's talk about her recent celebration which included mum Kim Kardashian’s private plane, ziplines, and cute blood-covered tents. Plus, Disney+ has released the first teaser trailer for the highly anticipated movie Hocus Pocus 2, which reunites our favourite sister witches Bette Midler, Sarah Jessica Parker and Kathy Najimy as the beloved Sanderson sisters. But now we have to talk about the movie’s murky past and an awkward relationship brewing between two of the famous co-stars. And Dakota Johnson covers the latest issue of Vanity Fair, in an interview that covers her famous family, her romance with Chris Martin, and her thoughts on the Fifty Shades of Grey movies which she now says were a nightmare to film. But reading between the lines of this interview we have to ask ourselves, how much do we really know about this beloved Hollywood nepo-baby and the life she’s trying to cover up.

On the show today… The BET Awards for 2022 were held last night, bringing some of our favourite stars together on a very impressive red carpet and honoring African American performers in music, acting and sports over the past year. And Ben Affleck is not having a great week after his son backed a Lamborghini SUV into another pricey vehicle in full view of fans who were tailing him and Jennifer Lopez. We now have a very important update on the incident. Plus, model and author Emily Ratajkowski is being sued over an image she posted to her Instagram account and it’s not the first time she’s been in legal trouble with the paparazzi. It’s a trap many other celebrities are finding themselves caught in and speaks to a bigger issue with changing paparazzi culture.

On the show today… The lineup has been revealed for Channel 10’s 2022 Pilot Showcase, and there are three new shows in particular that we are pretty excited about watching. And Amy Schumer was recently a guest on Penn Badgley’s podcast and ended up having to tell him why she really fired his wife Domino Kirke shortly after she gave birth, and it's a pretty relatable story. Plus, over the weekend many of us were devastated to hear the news of the US Supreme Court’s decision to overturn Roe v. Wade, the landmark 1973 case that protected one’s choice to have an abortion. It was a subject that dominated celebrity culture over the weekend and today we talk through the most intense celebrity reactions, why it’s more dangerous for some to speak out over others, and the one conversation we need celebrities to keep having. Here are some Mamamia articles about Roe v Wade if you'd like to learn more: Roe v. Wade has been overturned in America. So what does that mean for Australia? "WE WILL NOT STOP."

On the show today… If you’re a Game of Thrones fan then today is your lucky day, because we’ve been given our first proper look at the highly anticipated new prequel series House of the Dragon and it includes some Australian stars. And the celebrity skincare wars, as we like to call them, have been kicked up a notch this week with a number of stars including Kim Kardashian and Hailey Bieber launching their new lines at the same time. But one release has been met with scandal and now we need to talk about the influx of celebrity skincare brands and the story around why it’s all happening at once. Plus, it’s Friday and that means it’s Weekend Watch time! This week we have a classic TV show that may have slipped under the radar to recommend to you along with a clever psychological thriller that will make you afraid of using Instagram.

On the show today… Grab your Windex, because My Big Fat Greek Wedding 3 has officially gone into production and many of your favourite characters are back to tell a whole new story. And as if beloved Aussie show Neighbours hasn’t been through enough in the past few months, one of the show’s longest-running cast members has given an emotional interview about how badly the cast were treated at the Logies. Plus, everyone is talking about Brad Pitt’s new GQ cover, which features a single rose petal, a potentially dead lizard, and a soulful leading man stare. In the interview, Brad talks about his dreams, his insecurities, and potentially leaving Hollywood for good, but if you look past the images is it all just a calculated PR grab?

On the show today… Netflix has revealed a list of its top ten most-watched movies and there are two stars in particular who have come out on top. How many of these movies have you seen? And there’s a bit of a scandal currently brewing in Australian reality TV land. The Block host Scott Cam has called out fashion influencer and business owner Elle Ferguson and her fiance Joel Patfull for leaving the show early, dubbing them ‘un-Australian'. But there’s more to this story than just a few headlines. Plus, Hollywood appears to have a renewed interest in Marilyn Monroe, or at least in her public persona. Kim Kardashian has given a new interview about the star, and her infamous Met Gala appearance in her dress, while the first look at Ana de Armas as Marilyn Monroe in the new Netflix movie Blonde has just been released. Yet at the same time, the most pivotal part of Marilyn’s life story appears to be forgotten.

On the show today… Beyonce’s new song Break My Soul came out today and there’s a whole lot of significance behind the day she’s releasing it. Kendall Jenner and a cucumber are once again scoring joint headlines and we’ve now learned that the reality TV star/model has sought out professional help to deal with her vegetable cutting issue. Which is good, because she’s not the only celebrity to be taken down by a cucumber. And it's becoming increasing clear that Jennifer Aniston is entering her villain era. The beloved actress has moved on from the (unfair) ‘Poor Jen’ narrative and is now siding with problematic men and joining in the shaming of women. Her team tried to distract us with a salad, but we saw straight through it. At the same time, there’s one of her problematic opinions we actually agree with.

On the show today… The next round of performers to receive a star on the Hollywood Walk of Fame have been announced with the list of recipients including Uma Thurman, Lenny Kravitz, Mindy Kaling, and the Jonas Brothers. But the story behind how you actually score a star might surprise you. And the Logie Awards took place this week, bringing ‘Australian TV’s night of nights’ back to our screens after a two-year hiatus, but a few of our favourite stars suffered some mishaps on the red carpet. Plus, we need to debrief on the Logies ceremony itself, from the moments that had us cheering to some cringe-worthy scenes that felt like they were from a different time. And we have a controversial opinion about Hamish Blake and his Gold Logie win, making us think that it’s time to change up the ceremony for good.

While the cover is stunning, news about her new album has started a wave of drama through the music industry. And the first season of The Kardashians came to an end this week and we now finally know why they walked away from their old show and into their new format. From strategic new storylines to breaking the fourth wall and dropping a surprise end credits scene like they’re part of the Marvel Cinematic Universe, the show has all been part of an elaborate new PR spin.

On the show today… Amber Heard has given her first interview since the defamation case between her and Johnny Depp reached a verdict and has doubled down on claims that Depp did abuse her and that the jury were swayed by the online hatred against her and his Hollywood stardom. Here’s everything you need to know. Plus, it’s the picture everyone can't stop staring at today (but not in a creepy way). We’ve finally been given our first proper look at a bleach-blonde, tanned, and very ripped Ryan Gosling as Ken in Greta Gerwig’s upcoming Barbie movie. Most importantly, it’s given us a clue as to what his storyline might cover. And a conversation around OnlyFans, reality TV stars and mortality is domaining group chats and social media feeds today after The Bachelor stars Jimmy Nicholson and Holly Kingston made disparaging comments about people who use the platform. It’s prompted a conversation around privilege and the stigma around OnlyFans and sex work with a lot of famous voices weighing in on the subject.

On the show today… In news no one was ready for, Netflix has greenlit Squid Game: The Challenge, a reality competition series based on the hit 2021 South Korean drama that will feature some never before seen TV stakes. And it’s the update that has sent people into a fever. A Marilyn Monroe collector has claimed that Kim Kardashian inflicted “permanent damage” on Marilyn’s iconic dress by wearing it to the Met Gala. But now we need to talk about the real story behind this controversy. Plus, Jennifer Lopez’s long-await documentary has dropped on Netflix, and follows the star from the day of her 50th birthday celebrations to the Super Bowl half-time show she co-headlined with Shakira in 2020. The documentary gives us a new insight into Jennifer’s life, but at the same time, there are definitely some moments she didn’t want us to see.

On the show today… Lizzo’s new single Grrrls has been met with concern from fans and disability advocates alike, resulting in Lizzo today releasing a sincere apology and changing the lyrics to her new song. Plus, we are now swimming in photos and information from Britney Spears’ romantic/traumatic wedding and it's her thoughts on the guest list that deserve the most attention. She's also been ridiculed for how she looked on the day and, honestly, how many times do you need to be told to just leave Britney alone? And the world was celebrating with Rebel Wilson after she shared the news she was happily dating designer Ramona Agruma. Until we discovered her hand had been forced after an Australian newspaper emailed her to comment on the relationship and provided a publication deadline. What followed was a series of viral explanations from the editor, a delated column, and a public apology that gained international attention. But now we need to discuss the worst takeaway from the problematic outing of Rebel Wilson.

On the show today... After months of teasing how in love she is, Rebel Wilson has debuted her new relationship on Instagram in the sweetest way. And the actual wedding of the year - sorry Kravis - has taken place today, with Britney Spears reportedly tying the knot with her long-time partner Sam Asghari. While everyone has been awaiting the goss from the big day, one of her ex's really disturbing behaviour has threatened to overshadow the entire thing. Plus, it's Weekend Watch time! On today's show, we recommend a fun show about love, heartbreak and female friendship based off one of our favourite books, and a heart-wrenching but joyful re-imagining of a ground-breaking 90s series.  THE END BITS Subscribe to Mamamia GET IN TOUCH: Join us in our Facebook group to discuss everything pop culture...https://www.facebook.com/groups/2524018781153963/ Feedback?

On the show today... Who do you think of when we say the name 'Kylie'? Kylie Minogue has addressed that question in an interview about why she blocked Kylie Jenner from trademarking their shared first name. Plus, Katy Perry has been trending in Australia today, but not for the reason you might think. The popstar's new ad played in every ad break during last night's State of Origin, annoying all the sports fans at home. As it turns out, it's just the latest career pivot for one of the 2010s most interesting celebrities. And Love Island UK is back, and probably already taking over your social media feeds. Unsurprisingly, we're only one episode in and there have already been multiple gaffes. Considering the show's dark history, we unpack why it still has such a hold on reality TV watchers.

On the show today... We finally have word on who's been offered the part of Madonna in the forthcoming biopic about the pop icon. Plus, Michael B Jordan's breakup with Lori Harvey mightn't be as amicable as initially thought with Lori's mum posting a video on Instagram that seemed to throw shade his way. And former MAFS contestant Domenica Calarco has revealed a shock diagnosis due to her experience on the show. So are reality TV makers really doing all they can to protect the people who sign up?

On the show today… The mass exodus of judges from The Masked Singer Australia is continuing, with Jackie O announcing this week that she is also walking away from the popular series. Here’s everything you need to know. And the MTV Movie and TV Awards took place this week, bringing together some of our favourite stars under one roof. From Jennifer Lopez calling out her enemies to Chrishell Stause and G Flip sharing a romantic moment, let's talk through the biggest moments of the night. And in a shocking turn of events, Neve Campbell has confirmed that after 25 years she is leaving the Scream franchise due to a pay dispute, saying in a surprisingly honest statement that the offer for the next movie did not reflect her true worth. And it’s not the first time Hollywood has rejected Neve, and other actresses, for making similar requests behind the scenes.

On the show today... Jada Pinkett-Smith has spoken for the first time about her husband Will Smith slapping Chris Rock at the Oscars, but it’s not quite the response anyone was expecting. And it’s the unexpected crossover we never knew we needed because Gwyneth Paltrow has made a surprise guest appearance on the most recent episode of The Kardashians. And thanks to a conveniently timed Instagram post, it appears Gwyneth carefully orchestrated the whole situation. Plus, we’ve had a full weekend of coverage from the Queen’s Platinum Jubilee celebrations that are taking place in the UK right now, but it’s the stories around Kate Middleton and Meghan Markle that are leading to the most salacious headlines.

And it's the interview we've all been waiting for.

On the show today… The Hills stars (and professional reality TV villains) Heidi Montag and Spencer Pratt have announced they are expecting their second child after being very open about their fertility struggles. And Liam Payne has given a wild interview about his former One Direction bandmates and it’s safe to say that many of his (easily disproven) accusations have severely damaged the fandom. But when you look at another scandal that erupted this week, the timing of this interview is very suspicious. Plus, the verdict for the Johnny Depp and Amber Heard defamation trial has been announced and it’s very much come out in favour of Johnny Depp. However, many of those Johnny Depp ‘victory’ headlines are missing one crucial fact when it comes to what this verdict really means.

On the show today... Kevin Spacey has responded to the multiple charges of sexual assault filed against him in the United Kingdom last week. And Kristen Stewart’s latest movie is making headlines, but not for the reason you’d think. As reports surface about people walking out of Cannes’ Crimes of the Future screening, we unpack the actor’s comments about the film and consider whether this is the greatest accidental marketing they could’ve asked for. Plus, you may have seen headlines involving pop stars like Halsey and record label demands for viral content on TikTok. Today, Halsey’s label has announced a settlement, but people are still cynically wondering if the entire thing was a very meta form of advertising. So, what’s up with these artists and their new war against the social media giant? And is any of it actually real?

And after weeks of it dominating news headlines, the defamation trial between Johnny Depp and Amber Heard is coming to an end, but even a last-minute piece of damming information can’t change the public outcome. Plus, right now we are living in the Tom Cruise renaissance period, spurned on this week with the incredible performance of Top Gun: Maverick at the global box office. But when you look back at Tom Cruise’s controversial career, it looks like he was playing a long game when it comes to tricking the public into forgetting his past.

And Busy Phillips has announced that she and her husband, screenwriter Marc Silverstein, have separated after 15 years of marriage and are planning to divorce. The couple kept the news a secret for well over a year and said that going down the normal celebrity separation path “made them both feel sick”. Plus, it’s the story that’s been dominating headlines for the past few days,  a ‘cheating scandal involving Married At First Sight, stars Olivia Frazer and Jackson Lonie.

On the show today... Baz Luhrmann's Elvis biopic has debuted at Cannes Film Festival, receiving an incredible 12-minute standing ovation from the crowd. We're looking forward to the movie of course, but also to what we're dubbing 'Austin Butler season'. And Charlene, Princess of Monaco has given an interview shedding light on her health, after more than a year of speculation. There have long been conspiracies around Charlene, the so-called 'sad princess', so while the interview isn't especially groundbreaking, it does feel like a big step. Plus, Kate Moss has testified in the Johnny Depp and Amber Heard defamation trial, with the supermodel's short testimony being heralded as a huge win for Team Depp. There's a long history as to why Moss' statement carries so much weight, but it's important to keep in mind that this is still far from case closed.

On the show today… The new trailer for Thor: Love and Thunder is here, revealing the usual stunning graphics and wild fight scenes, but also a lot of laughs and... a gratuitous look at Chris Hemsworth's bum. And Florence Pugh has found herself once again having to defend her relationship with Zach Braff, after fans celebrated paparazzi photos which they took as proof the controversial couple had broken up. It's a strange insight into fandom, and how celebrity social media use can lead to parasocial relationships, against their will. Plus, Calvin Harris is engaged. Yes, the Scottish musician who also happens to be the one Taylor Swift ex we all forgot about, has proposed to his partner of five months, Vick Hope. But considering the man also just announced new music, we can't help but feel a little bit cynical about this timing.

And Kate Moss is about the testify in the Johnny Depp and Amber Heard defamation trial, to the delight of millions of Depp fans online who have been waiting for this moment.

This year, three (white) men will be giving out the roses on their quest for love, with the casting choice raising many valid conversations about a lack of diversity.

On the show today… The TV show we've all been waiting for is nearly here, with a new trailer and release date finally confirmed for Everything I Know About Love, based on Dolly Alderton's beloved memoir of the same name.And this week, a Mission Impossible trailer leaked and was very quickly removed from the internet. It's just the latest in a long line of gaffes involving Tom Cruise blockbusters, but somehow, the action star continues to land on his feet.Plus, it's the wedding event of the year. Kourtney Kardashian and Travis Barker have wed (again) in a lavish Italian ceremony, with all the glitz and glam you'd expect from a Kardashian marriage. But the Catholic theme of the event has raised some eyebrows, and possibly hinted at a sponsorship deal worth millions.
