The Spill

On the show today… Saturday Night Live will be back for its 47th season from and they’ve announced their upcoming slate of hosts, which includes a surprising addition...Kim Kardashian West. And the long-awaited full length trailer for Netflix’s new documentary, Britney vs Spears was released late yesterday in the lead up to its release on September 28th and it chronicles Britney Spears’ controversial conservatorship, including the impact of the #FreeBritney movement. Plus this month marks the 25 year anniversary of the Spice Girls debut single, Wannabe and to celebrate, a new three-part documentary series Spice Girls: How Girl Power Changed Britain, is currently airing in the UK.  And it's shocking looking back at the UK media’s treatment of the group as they rose to fame and pursued their solo careers after the band split in 1998.

On the show today… Sex and the City star Willie Garson who played Stanford Blatch, the best friend of Sarah Jessica Parker's Carrie Bradshaw, sadly passed away on Tuesday afternoon following a short illness. Plus Jake Gyllenhaal and his bathing habits have been following him around like a bad smell (pun intended) for a while now and we have some thoughts about it. And Aussie Hollywood superstar Rebel Wilson has announced her new venture into children's publishing and she joins a long list of celebs who have done the same.

On the show today… In royal news, Princess Beatrice, the daughter of Prince Andrew and Sarah Ferguson, has given birth to her first child. No name has been released yet, but there’s still an interesting tidbit to be found in the announcement. And we need to talk about the Emmys red carpet, or more specifically, how the best-dressed looks from the carpet were reported. A few actresses' looks were given the spotlight, but there’s an underlying issue that needs to be addressed. Plus, the Emmys ceremony was chock full of surprises, scandals, and even a few tear-inducing moments, and now we need to talk through them all. The show’s ratings might have been at an all-time high, but now a flood of backlash around the winner's list could be set to change how the awards run for good.

On the show today… In Australian TV news, the Seven Network has announced the full cast for the second season of Dancing With The Stars: All Stars. Quite a few familiar names are in the mix, in a bid for a second shot at dancing glory, but it’s the new slate of wild card entries we need to talk about. Plus, the 73rd Primetime Emmy Awards took place today and a few stars made a bit of splash on the red carpet with outfits that looked straight out of The Handmaid's Tale and American Horror Story. There were also some wild moments at the start of the ceremony, but there’s also been a drastic change to how people now talk at awards shows that we need to unpack. And reports have surfaced that a second Kim Kardashian sex tape is in existence and is being shopped around to potential buyers. Kim’s team have already stepped in to shut down the situation, but it’s led to the story around her original sex tape resurfacing. A story that’s been reported incorrectly for decades.

On the show today… It was the show that caused a wave of international backlash and now The Activist, an upcoming reality TV series starring Usher, Priyanka Chopra Jonas, and Julianne Hough is no more. An apology has been issued and the competition is not going ahead, but is the new way forward for this show really a good idea? Plus, a new unauthorised book entitled How to Save a Life: The Inside Story of Grey’s Anatomy is being unleashed into the world and it might be the juiciest TV show tell-all the world has seen. The book has laid out exactly why one of the lead characters left the award-winning series and it's safe to say that this is not the last we will hear of this on-set drama. And it’s Weekend Watch time! Today we’re recommending the return of a classic, groundbreaking TV series and talking about a prestigious new limited series that made headlines before the first episode had even aired.

On the show today… The 2021 ARIA Awards are nearly upon us and this year they are going to look refreshingly different. There have been some huge changes made to how the two major categories are judged and it’s sure to shake up the Australian music industry. Plus, we’re back in the swing of glitzy awards shows and red carpets but they are definitely not all they are cracked up to be, at least according to a spicy new interview with Ed Sheeran. The award-winning musician has lifted the lid on what really goes on behind the scenes of the world’s biggest award shows and look, it sounds pretty brutal. And it’s the new magazine cover everyone is talking about. Time Magazine has released their annual list of The World’s Most 100 Influential People of 2021 and for the first time, Prince Harry and Meghan Markle have appeared together formally for a magazine cover. The cover itself has received a wave of ridicule, but the cover story contains a pretty pointed message for the couple’s biggest and most vocal critics.

On the show today… In an unexpected turn of events, Britney Spears has deleted her Instagram account. The move comes after the star announced her engagement on Instagram and just days after her father Jamie Spears filed a petition to terminate her conservatorship. Britney posted on her Twitter account that she was ok, but fans are still suspicious. And this year’s Met Gala is just the gift that keeps on giving. Hailey Bieber looked a little depressed at the event and now that we know what really happened before she stepped on the red carpet, it's completely understandable. And Kim Kardashian is still making headlines for her Met Gala look, and it’s all tied back to Kanye West. Plus, Chrissy Teigan has shared a very candid video explaining some recent surgical work she has had done to her face. While her honesty is refreshing, it has also opened up a difficult discussion around famous women’s faces, and the stories we’re not allowed to tell, even when they affect our own lives.

On the show today… The first teaser trailer for Olivia Wilde’s highly anticipated new movie, Don’t Worry Darling, was released today, and let's just say it’s both sexy and terrifying. But that’s not the only reason people can’t stop talking about this upcoming release. Plus, today marks the triumphant return of the Metropolitan Museum of Art's Costume Institute Gala, more affectionately known as the Met Gala, and the OTT celebrity looks did not disappoint. But along with a wild red carpet, one celebrity, in particular, took a pretty strong stance over not attending, and now there’s a conspiracy theory in the works about who else silently joined in. And, we need to talk about the industry's most infamous awards show, the MTV Video Music Awards, which took place this week. Along with a few groundbreaking performances and historic wins, there was quite a lot of drama behind the scenes. From the Megan Fox and Machine Gun Kelly moment that wasn’t caught on camera to Kourtney Kardashian trolling the audience, there’s a lot to unpack here.

On the show today… In a sweet announcement video, Britney Spears has confirmed that she is engaged to her partner of four years, Sam Asghari. It’s welcome news for Britney as she fights to have her conservatorship removed, but now one rogue comment on her announcement, made by an Oscar-winning actress, is what’s making headlines. And it’s the new TV show everyone is talking about...but not in a good way. Usher, Priyanka Chopra Jonas, and Julianne Hough are co-hosting a new reality TV series called The Activist, where six activists go head-to-head in challenges to promote their causes. The show has been met with extreme backlash, but there’s a bigger issue to discuss here. Plus, Jennifer Lopez and Ben Affleck have made their triumphant return to the red carpet at the Venice Film Festival, but it doesn’t appear to be a decision they made lightly. Their loved-up appearance is timed nearly 18 years to the day when their relationship was at its worst, and Jennifer's choice of dress proves it wasn’t an accident.

On the show today… Start your engines! Today it was announced that the Stan Original Series RuPaul's Drag Race Down Under will return for a second season in 2022. But this time around there’s a new plot twist with the casting, and it sounds like the series is going to be bigger and better than ever before. Plus, this week it was announced that Kaley Cuoco and her husband, Karl Cook, were divorcing after three years of marriage. The actress said she felt compelled to tell her followers about the breakup because they had shared so much of their life publicly, but it hasn't stopped people digging for dirt about what really happened. Now Pete Davidson has been added to the story, and we’ve got a pretty compelling theory about why every young Hollywood star feels the need to date him. And it’s Weekend Watch time! There are two new TV shows on The Spill’s radar this week, and we need to talk about both of them.

On the show today… The new Netflix movie He’s All That might have been slammed with bad reviews but its leading lady, TikTok star Addison Rae, has just come out on top with a surprise career twist. And thanks to his private Instagram messages being leaked to the world, it looks like Scott Disick and his girlfriend Amelia Hamlin are over for good (much to the relief of her famous parents). Their break-up has been linked to a pretty attention-grabbing t-shirt, but it’s a move that’s been done before. So let's talk about the day Julia Roberts T-shirt started a tabloid war. Plus, everyone is talking about actor and comedian John Mulaney, and it’s got nothing to do with his new TV show. After months of speculation, John confirmed that he is dating actress Olivia Munn and, in a plot twist, the couple are also expecting their first child. It’s a lovely announcement, but everyone is focused on how they really met and it’s a wild story.

On the show today… The highly anticipated Mr. & Mrs. Smith TV series has hit a pretty big roadblock. Based on the infamous movie of the same name that starred Brad Pitt and Angelina Jolie, the TV reboot was set to star Phoebe Waller-Bridge and Donald Glover in the title roles. Now Phoebe has walked away from the series and the reason for her exit is making headlines. And we need to talk about Guy Sebastian. The musician and The Voice judge made headlines this week after he apologised for #VaxTheNation material being shared to his Instagram account. Guy has offered up an explanation for his actions, but that’s not the conversation we need to be having. Plus, Kylie Jenner has announced, via a sweet Instagram video, that she and her boyfriend Travis Scott are expecting their second child together. Along with the happy news, there are now questions about what prompted her to share the update, and why one person, in particular, might be missing from her announcement video.

On the show today… The Voice Australia has been a surprise ratings hit this year, which has prompted the network to make some major changes to how the show will run in 2022. Let's just say that if you’ve ever wanted to be a star, this might be your chance. And in pretty devastating news for fans of The Pussycat Dolls, it looks like we won’t be getting that big reunion tour anytime soon. The group’s founder is suing lead singer Nicole Scherzinger, alleging that she is trying to overthrow her and take control of the group. Nicole has now responded and her side of the story is pretty scathing. Plus, Ellen DeGeneres is gearing up for the final season of her talk show and some pretty big Hollywood stars have publicly thrown their support behind her by promising to appear as guests. Which makes it even odder that we’ve discovered a bizarre video on one of Ellen’s Instagram accounts, and it looks like a direct attempt to reignite her feud with Dakota Johnson.  LINKS The Spill Facebook page CREDITS Hosts: Laura Brodnik & Kee Reece Producers: Laura Brodnik & Madeline Joannou Audio Producer: Leah Porges WANT MORE?

On the show today… In not so fun TV news, the TV Week Logie Awards have officially been canceled for the second year in a row, and now we have to have some difficult discussions about the future of Australian TVs ‘night of nights.  And it’s the sexy red carpet video the world is talking about, Jessica Chastain and Oscar Isaac put on quite a performance at the Venice Film Festival premiere of their new series. The slow-motion clip is already going viral, but if you watch it from the other angle, it tells a very different story about what was really happening. Plus, Angelina Jolie has given a rare in-depth interview about her life and it contains some troubling details about her ongoing custody battle with her ex-husband Brad Pitt. An unspoken Hollywood power imbalance has kept Angelina quiet for years but now we cannot ignore the details about Brad Pitt that are starting to bubble to the surface. Which leads us to wonder, why is he the one celebrity the world refuses to turn against?

On the show today… In news no one expected 2021 to deliver, ABBA, one of the greatest musical groups of all time, is making a comeback. However, their announcement came with a surprise twist that fans were definitely not expecting. And this year’s season of The Bachelor has come to an end, which means one lucky lady got swept away in a made-for-TV romance while the other was brutally rejected on national television. It all seems pretty standard, but this year a dark cloud has been hanging over The Bachelor and it can all be traced back to one disastrous mistake. Plus, it’s Weekend Watch time! On today’s show we recommend two addictive TV shows you need to watch immediately. One is an under the radar classic while the other is a buzzy new series with an all-star cast.

On the show today… In sad news for Real Housewives Of Atlanta fans and cast, series breakout star and original cast member Nene Leakes has confirmed the death of her husband, Gregg Leakes.  And it’s been called “the biggest cheating scandal in The Block’s history” and there are some very scandalous headlines floating around about what’s going on behind the scenes of the reality show. Host Scott Cam said he is now “scrambling to save this series” but contestants at the centre of the drama have released a statement adding an extra twist to the already wild story. Plus, in a blow to Meghan Markle and the thousands of people who filed complaints against him, UK media personality Piers Morgan has been officially cleared of all wrongdoing in regards to volatile comments he made that resulted in him sensationally walking away from Good Morning Britain. But there appears to be a lot more happening behind the scenes for Meghan Markle and her family right now, but it’s a story the headlines appear to have missed.

On the show today… In entertainment news that’s dripping in nostalgia, Will Smith has announced who will play the lead character in the highly anticipated Fresh Prince of Bel-Air reboot. The story behind this reboot itself is pretty interesting, because it was inspired by the 2019 viral video which reimagined the iconic 90s sitcom as a gritty drama. And we need to talk about the Instagram story that’s currently blowing up group chats everywhere. It appears Scott Disick, Kourtney Kardashian’s ex-partner and the father of her three children, tried to rope another ex into shaming her for her new relationship, but there’s more to this story than just one leaked DM. Plus, Khloé Kardashian is facing an avalanche of criticism after a clip from a 2019 interview was dug up and shared on TikTok. The comments paint Khloe Kardashain in a pretty negative light but what we really need to talk about is how this one comment is just the tip of the iceberg when it comes to what’s really happening behind the scenes in the entertainment and influencer industry.

On the show today… If you’re desperate to see your favourite celebrities and sports stars be tortured until they are emotionally, physically, and psychologically broken then you’re in luck because the official air date for the new season of SAS Australia has just been announced and the cast list is pretty intense. And Zoe Foster Blake announced that she has sold 50.1% of her wildly successful brand  Go-To Skincare to BWX for a reported $89M but there’s a catch to the deal that will soothe any worried fans. Plus, He’s All That, the highly anticipated reimagining of the iconic 90s movie She’s All That has dropped on Netflix and there are a few important points we need to passionately debate. Like was Addison Rae really hung out to dry? Is that claim about bringing back the original scriptwriter all a lie? Did the horse make a formal complaint once filming wrapped? We need to talk about it all.

On the show today… One of the biggest headlines crowding your social media feeds of late would have been the fact that Beyonce has been publicly criticised for wearing a ‘blood diamond’ alongside her husband Jay-Z in a new ad campaign for Tiffany & Co. The story behind the infamous Tiffany necklace is one steeped in controversy, but before you make a snap judgment, you have to hear Beyonce’s side of the story. Plus, the first trailer for the highly anticipated new series Impeachment: American Crime Story has dropped and its brought one of the world’s most infamous political stories back into the spotlight. The series will chronicle former US President Bill Clinton's impeachment, with a focus on former White House intern Monica Lewinsky. It’s now come to light that a particularly controversial scene was almost cut from the series, but it was Monica who pushed for it to be kept in, at her own expense. And in the lead-up to the release of his new album Donda, Kanye West held yet another stadium listening party and this time he pulled out all the stops. The event included controversial appearances by Marilyn Manson and DaBaby, Kanye setting himself on fire and a moment where his soon-to-be ex-wife Kim Kardashian walked toward him in a wedding gown. Fans are speculating that the stunt means the couple is getting back together, but the real story is a lot more intense.

On the show today… The US version of Dancing With The Stars is set to kick off its 30th season next month, and 18 year old reality TV star turned pop star and YouTube personality, JoJo Siwa will make history as the first ever female celebrity to dance with a female pro. And Lizzo’s new song Rumors is currently #4 on Billboard’s Hot 100 charts and in a recent interview on Jimmy Kimmel Live, it came out that Drake has in fact reached out to her over THAT saucy lyric.

On the show today… You might not immediately know the name Spencer Elden, but he has certainly played a big part in pop culture. Spencer Elden’s photo, of him naked as a baby, was used on Nirvana’s hit breakthrough album Nevermind. The now 30-year-old has filed a lawsuit against Kurt Cobain’s estate and the band’s surviving members, saying the band violated federal child pornography statutes and sexually exploited him. And Alana Thompson burst onto screens nearly a decade ago as a child-beauty queen nicknamed Honey Boo Boo on Toddlers and Tiaras. She and her family all then found fame as reality TV stars, but now, in the lead-up to her sixteenth birthday, she has given an interview to Teen Vogue that paints a very different picture of what was really going on. Plus, Kylie Jenner has shared a series of new images to her Instagram account, showing her three-year-old daughter Stormi Webster living out her wildest dream. The cute photos are now being predictably slammed but the reality behind them is actually a little sad.

On the show today… Three-time Golden Globe winner Tom Cruise has surprised a UK family by landing his helicopter in their backyard. Yes, you read that right... the Hollywood icon is currently filming the seventh instalment of Mission: Impossible in the English countryside, and had to urgently find a place to land, but made it up to the family with a photo and a very special treat for the kids. And Ben Affleck has been spotted shopping for engagement rings for J-Lo in Los Angeles. Photos show the actor browsing in Tiffany & Co., but do we believe it? With his team offering up a strange explanation for the shopping trip, it's time to look at Bennifer 2.0 to consider whether they might actually make it down the aisle this time around.  Plus, Kee is desperate to talk about Netflix's new show The Chair, and why it's such an important series that you can watch in a single day.

On the show today… In news that will add a glimmer of happiness to your day, Little Mix bandmates Leigh-Anne Pinnock and Perrie Edwards have announced the birth of their babies within 24 hours of each other. Their announcements were both very sweet, but they were missing some very crucial details. And right now Nicole Kidman’s name is in the headlines and for once the topic of conversation is not centered on her newest on-screen character or her sexy marriage to Keith Urban. Instead, she’s been granted a very controversial exemption and people have a lot to say about it. Plus, there was already excitement about Zoe Kravitz and Channing Tatum working on a movie together, but ever since some seemingly loved-up pictures of them gliding around New York together surfaced, fans have been convinced that they are the new celebrity couple to watch. But the way they’ve ‘unveiled’ their new relationship has set off some warning bells, and there are a few photos in particular that point towards the fact that it could all be just a publicity stunt.

On the show today… Angelina Jolie has finally joined Instagram and in doing so broke a pretty impressive record. The star had previously been hesitant about joining the social media platform but decided to do so after receiving a very important letter. And it looks like Kylie Jenner is indeed pregnant with her second baby, after her parent Caitlyn Jenner let the news slip during a visit to a toy store while campaigning to be California’s next governor. Everyone is waiting for Kylie to confirm the news herself, but there’s a theory that she’s holding out for a very special public event. Plus, former co-hosts Jessica Rowe and Karl Stefanovic have reunited for a very emotional interview, speaking for the first time in-depth since she was brutally let go from the Today show in 2007. During their intense conversation, Karl offered up a public apology to Jessica and there’s a moment that brought them both to tears.

On the show today… Britney Spears is being investigated by police after she was accused of striking an employee during an argument inside her home. Britney has now issued a statement and she’s telling a very different story. And Selena Gomez is on the September cover of Elle magazine, giving a long interview that hinges on her ‘return’ to the spotlight. It highlights her various struggles over the years and what comes next for her career, but it skirts around the biggest issue, which is the story no one is allowed to tell about Selena Gomez. Plus, it’s Weekend Watch time! There are two new TV shows we need you to watch this weekend and on today’s show, we’re joined by special guest Asher Keddie to tell you all about one.

On the show today… Just days after confirming the pregnancy, Scarlett Johansson and her husband, Saturday Night Live star Colin Jost, have welcomed their first baby together. The couple have apparently given their new son a very cute name, but was part of the announcement a bit of a joke to throw people off his real name? And a  judge has ruled that Johnny Depp is allowed to move forward with a defamation lawsuit against his ex-wife Amber Heard, following an op-ed she wrote about being a survivor of domestic violence. It comes as a surprise after British tabloids won a case against the actor for calling him a “wife-beater”. Plus, Paris Hilton is doing the promotional rounds for her new Netflix series Cooking With Paris and it seems she’s backtracking on a pretty big confession she made last year. During a recent talk show appearance, she made a comment that made us realise why she’s reverting to her old public persona.

On the show today… In celebrity product news that no one was quite expecting, Mariah Carey has released a new line of alcohol, which sounds delicious, the only thing is it appears to have a slightly odd name. At least until the songstress explained the family meaning behind it. And just as we were starting to recover from the naked paddle boarding incident of 2016, actor Orlando Bloom has blessed us with yet another set of naked images. At least this time he’s sharing the pictures himself, but now we have a very important question about what’s happening in the background… Plus, we’ve heard some pretty disturbing stories about the inner workings of the Playboy Mansion in the past, but apparently, the worst of it has been kept hidden until now. The first trailer for Secrets of Playboy, a new documentary, has been released and it promises to explore the "real truth" behind Hugh Hefner's empire, with famous faces such as Holly Madison ready to tell their stories.

On the show today… In exciting TV news, Ryan Murphy has announced that two new American Story spinoffs are coming our way. The anthology shows, entitled  American Sports Story and American Love Story, are set to go into production. American Sports Story will re-examine an infamous event involving a sports star while American Love Story will follow the romance of John F Kennedy Jr and Carolyn Bessette. Plus Bradley Cooper’s remake of A Star Is Born may have been a box office success, but Barbra Streisand has some feedback on the Oscar-nominated film that is making headlines today. She’s been accused of ‘slamming’ the Oscar-winning film, but her behind-the-scenes story makes a pretty important point about how the movie missed the mark. And following the highly anticipated release of her new single Rumors, in collaboration with Cardi B, Lizzo has broken down in tears on an Instagram live in response to brutal public commentary. People have been quick to brush off her response saying ‘if you don’t like the song, don’t listen' but the real story behind her tears paints a much more alarming picture.

On the show today… There’s quite a bit of drama going down on The Block this week and it has nothing to do with construction. After two contestants didn’t make it home one night, allegations have now been thrown around about a setup that involves a fake breathalyser. And in news that is sure to warm your heart, Blink-182 drummer and significant other to Kourtney Kardashian, Travis Barker, has flown on an airplane for the first time in 13 years after surviving a 2008 plane crash that killed four people and left him with third-degree burns across his body. The story of how he agreed to get on the plane is a touch romantic. Plus, Jennifer Lopez has gone on an Instagram photo deleting spree, and it’s pretty clear she knows exactly what kind of message she’s trying to send. It’s a clever post-break-up PR plan, and she’s not the only celebrity to go down this path and grab some headlines in the process.

Welcome to a new episode of Watch Club where we deep dive into Stan’s critically acclaimed new comedy series Hacks. The ten-episode series tells the story of Deborah Vance, a legendary entertainer whose long-standing dates at a Las Vegas casino are on the verge of being slashed to make room for younger talent.  In order to create a new show, she is teamed up with a young comedy writer who has been canceled thanks to a few questionable tweets. Safe to say it’s disliked at first sight. In today’s episode, we deep dive into how Hacks became one of the surprise TV hits of the year, nominated for 15 Emmy Awards, and how one of the lead actresses had never acted before taking on this role.  We delve into the famous woman the show was inspired by, the comedy references weaved into the show, and how it cleverly showcases how we talk about women in the spotlight. This podcast is full of spoilers so we advise that you watch the series first and then listen to this episode. We would also love to know your thoughts on it too, so join us in our Facebook group for further discussion.

On the show today… Today your social media feeds were flooded with a flurry of headlines triumphantly declaring that Britney Spears' father, Jamie Spears, had agreed to step down as estate conservator following her allegations of abuse. Except, these headlines are not true and one vital piece of information has been missed. Plus, it looks like one of the great celebrity scandals of our times has finally come to an end today, thanks to a pretty pointed and hilarious new video posted by Ashton Kutcher and Mila Kunis direct from their very own bathroom.

On the show today… The highly anticipated reunion for Farmer Wants a Wife has aired, and there was only one topic that viewers were eagerly waiting to see addressed. However, they were left hanging until the very end and then the ‘scandal’ reveal only added more fuel to the fire. Plus, fans have noticed something peculiar about Kylie Jenner’s recent social media behaviour. There have been a string of inconsistencies throughout the photos she and her family have been posting, and when you actually break it down, it looks like she’s keeping a pretty big secret under wraps. And The Hills star Heidi Montag has given a revealing new interview about the iconic reality show and explained why her former best friend and co-star Lauren Conrad should have been much more successful than she actually is. It’s a controversial interview, but when you look back at the history of the show, it will change how we look at two of TV’s most famous women.

On the show today… Christina Applegate has announced on Twitter that she has been diagnosed with multiple sclerosis. The actress said “it’s been a tough road. But as we all know, the road keeps going. Unless some asshole blocks it.” She also said she has been leaning on one of her former co-stars, who has the same condition, for support. And Chrissy Teigen is back in business it seems. The author and TV host announced this week that she has produced a documentary about the cultural significance of fries titled FRIES! The Movie. Her announcement has led to an interesting conversation about the realities of cancel culture. Plus, Beyonce has appeared on the cover of the September issue of Harper's Bazaar and it’s surprisingly the most in-depth interview she’s given in years. Not only does the interview undo the ‘mythology’ of Beyonce, but it also shows how her biggest scandals have remained hidden.

On the show today… There’s something peculiar going on with Australian TV ratings at the moment. One long-running reality TV show has suddenly skyrocketed in the ratings, while another reality staple seems to be crashing at an alarming rate. And Britney Spears, who is still battling to have her 13-year conservatorship removed, has announced that she is severely cutting back on the content she will be posting to her Instagram account and judging by what her family has also been posting, it’s for a pretty messy reason. Plus, Melissa McCarthy was asked a question about the birthday video she filmed with Meghan Markle while doing press for her new TV show. Melissa heaped glowing praise onto Meghan and her husband Prince Harry, but then she answered a question that has left people seeing the royal couple in a whole new light.

On the show today… You’ve probably heard of TED talks, but what about ‘TED Twerks’? Lizzo spoke about the origins of twerking in a recent TED Talk sneak peek and you need to hear the brilliant way she explains the significance of twerking in Black culture.   And, Seven Network confirmed its all-star cast for the Big Brother VIP series, and there are a few surprising names on this cast list. We need to talk about the just-released trailer for the show and how Thomas Markle Jr attacks his younger sister Meghan Markle. Plus, Jessie J came under fire this weekend for misrepresenting the origins of the 2014 hit song, Bang Bang. In an interview for Glamour magazine, Jessie J described how Nicky Minaj supposedly asked to join her and Ariana Grande on the song, but Nicki has a completely different version of events. It’s time to talk about what really happens behind the scenes of these celebrity collaborations.

On the show today… Actress Kate Bosworth has announced she is separating from her husband Michael Polish after nearly eight years of marriage, but it’s the announcement itself that has our eyebrows raised. Her Instagram post included a black-and-white photo of the couple kissing, accompanied by a break-up caption we believe would have infuriated Gwyneth Paltrow. And Jennifer Aniston is the cover star for Instyle’s September issue, and in a lengthy interview drops quite a few surprising bombshells about her life. While her strong stance on vaccination should be applauded, she also touches on a deep family pain she normally keeps hidden and alludes to a pretty strange at-home habit. Plus, it’s Weekend Watch time! There are two new TV shows premiering today that we are desperate to tell you about, a mysterious teen thriller and a critically acclaimed comedy the world can not stop raving about.

On the show today… You might want to mark today’s date in your calendars because Rihanna has officially been declared a billionaire. She’s been dubbed the world’s richest female musician and second only to Oprah Winfrey on the list of the world’s richest female entertainers. But it isn’t her music that secured this level of wealth. And, Netflix has released the first trailer for He's All That, the highly anticipated gender-flipped remake of the hit 90’s movie She's All That, and we need to talk about it. There are false news headlines, surprise cameos, and a little debate about whether or not the gender-flipped storyline can actually work. Plus, Meghan Markle has released a surprise video in celebration of her 40th birthday, calling in the comedy big guns in the form of Melissa McCarthy. The intention behind the video is to inspire charity and change, but there are also a number of carefully hidden details sprinkled throughout it. Predictably, the video has angered a number of people, so let's talk about what’s really going on here.

On the show today… Natalie Portman was due to start filming a new movie in Australia this week, but she has suddenly stepped away from the role and now the entire film has mysteriously been shut down for good. An official production statement has raised even more red flags and now we need to investigate what’s really going on. Plus Darren Hayes has revealed that he turned down big bucks to re-record a hit Savage Garden song for a TV commercial. The musician said he’s doing it as part of a fight to ‘protect your high school memories’ and also released the proposed rewrite of the song. It’s something you need to hear in order to believe it’s true. And Aquaman star Jason Momoa has given a new interview to The New York Times Magazine and it’s making headlines thanks to a particular question he took offence to, concerning his breakout role on Game of Thrones. His response has firmly divided both the internet and this podcast.

On the show today… Reese Witherspoon has once again changed the filmmaking game with the announcement that her company Hello Sunshine, which is responsible for hits such as Big Little Lies, Gone Girl, and Wild, has been sold. But it’s the intricate details of this particular deal that have raised eyebrows. And this year’s season of Farmer Wants a Wife has been hit by a surprise ‘controversy’, but it’s not as wild and salacious as the tabloids would have you think. Contestant Hayley Love released a statement saying she is pregnant with Farmer Will’s child and now he has publicly replied, but there’s one line in his statement that has raised a red flag. Plus, Matt Damon has made headlines after giving an interview where he said he’s retired using the ‘f-slur' after his daughter explained how wrong it was. In response to a wave of backlash, the actor has now issued a statement claiming he never actually used the word in real life, but there’s one part of his story that just doesn’t add up.

On the show today… The full list of the celebrity housemates appearing on the upcoming show Big Brother VIP has been leaked and, if this list is to be believed, it’s shaping up to fall on the ‘uglier’ side of reality TV, something we really don’t need to see on our screens right now. Especially when you take into account the two international ‘celebrities’ who have been brought into the mix. And Kim Kardashian has been served a cease-and-desist order regarding her next business venture and it’s not something she’ll be able to ignore. It’s just the latest blow the reality star and businesswoman has dealt with in recent months regarding the many legal issues surrounding her empire, but this one has a very different backstory. Plus, the new series of Gossip Girl has already made more than a few enemies, with an actress recently calling out the series for making jokes about her and her superstar boyfriend, and she’s not the first celebrity to do so. But after her complaints made headlines, it’s pretty clear that this ‘scandal’ is all part of a clever plan.

Welcome to a new episode of Watch Club, where we deep dive into Stan’s chilling yet captivating new crime drama Dr. Death. The eight-part series is based on Wondery's hit podcast of the same name and tells the true story of former American neurosurgeon Dr. Christopher Duntsch, who became known as 'Dr. Death' after it was discovered that he left a trail of severely injured and maimed patients across various hospitals in Texas. In today's episode, we delve into the most terrifying scenes from the series, how they were brought to life and why the casting choices were made to deliberately make you feel uncomfortable.  We also talk through the real-life moments that were changed for the show, the importance of the female characters, and the horrifying truth the final scene revealed. This podcast is full of spoilers so we advise that you watch the series first and then listen to this episode. We would also love to know your thoughts on it too, so join us in our Facebook group for further discussion.

On the show today… In a dramatic twist of events, Scarlett Johansson is suing Disney over the release of her new movie Black Widow. The actresses' team say she will not be the first Hollywood star to call out their alleged bad behaviour, while Disney has hit back with a pretty scathing response. Now, we need to talk about what this fight is really about. And we’re into our second week of The Bachelor and all the drama that pilot Jimmy promised us is already unfolding on screen. A clear villain has emerged from the group, but her first outing has raised alarm bells. Is this a case of wild editing, a grab for solo fame or a genuine throw-down fight that will escalate as the season progresses? Plus, it’s Weekend Watch time! There are two new TV shows that you need to watch this weekend, a clever and timely comedy and a sweeping romance with lush costumes and locations.

On the show today… In a searing new interview, Lucy Liu has finally commented on those viral headlines about what really happened on the Charlie’s Angels set between her and Bill Murray more than 20 years ago. And she’s ready to share a very different version of events. And we need to talk about the one piece of reality TV news from this week that has left people floored. Selling Sunset star Chrishell Stause confirmed she is dating her co-star and boss, Jason Oppenheim,  via a sexy Instagram post. The majority of fans welcomed the news, while others see it as pretty controversial. Plus, Britney Spears’ former manager Sam Lutfi has released a series of old voicemail messages from Britney, along with never before seen photos of her kids.

On the show today… Actress Zoë Kravitz has called out two tabloid publications for objectifying her in a series of headlines accompanying some pretty bizarre paparazzi images. It might sound like a small, petty thing for her to be hung up on, but when you actually read the headlines, she makes a pretty good point. And according to today’s celebrity news cycle, Paris Hilton is pregnant with her first child with fiancé Carter Reum after a long IVF journey. Except… that’s not true at all. It might seem like a harmless report but if you look at the other slice of Paris Hilton news that came out today, it seems like the story might have been planted by the heiress herself. Plus, it seems like every outlet is plastered with the same story today, proclaiming that Mila Kunis and Ashton Kutcher never wash their two children ‘unless they can see the dirt’. If you read these stories, it's easy to believe they were taking a strong and unconditional stance on parenting, which has sparked a fierce online debate, but their actual comments tell a very different story.

On the show today… Dieter Brummer, who starred in Home and Away as Shane Parrish in the 1990s, has died aged 45. Today we take a look at the beloved actor’s legacy and share the beautiful words of a Home and Away actress who has penned a tribute to Dieter, revealing they were secretly in love. And Britney Spears has officially taken steps to remove her father from her conservatorship. This move comes after her emotional court testimony on June 23 where she spoke about her conservatorship for the first time, alleging she was the victim of abuse. Now a new name has been brought in to take over and it doesn't sound like her family will be happy about it. Plus, for years we’ve been watching a damning narrative play out in the tabloids around Meghan Markle, exposing her ‘mistakes’ and how she tried to ‘break the rules'. Now a new interview has surfaced that shows how this has played out before, but with a very different ending.

On the show today… The ongoing custody battle between Angelina Jolie and Brad Pitt took a sharp turn over the weekend when a California appeals court disqualified the private judge the former married couple was using. Thanks to a bit of shady behaviour from Brad Pitt’s legal team, it looks like Hollywood’s most infamous custody battle has to start all over again. And Princess Diana’s niece Lady Kitty Spencer was married over the weekend in a truly opulent celebration that featured the bride wearing no less than five couture gowns. However, the wedding itself has been overshadowed by details of the groom and the very telling absences of the royal family. Plus it’s the photo that stopped the world… and that’s not even a joke. Jennifer Lopez went Instagram official over the weekend with former fiancee Ben Affleck, posting a holiday snap of the couple sharing a passionate kiss and confirming on her socials for the first time that they are officially back together. While it might seem romantic, the rollout of their new relationship tells a very different story.

On the show today… The first episode of The Bachelor for 2021 has aired and we watched as pilot Jimmy Nicholson was introduced to a slew of ladies who all really went to town when it came to making a memorable entrance on the red carpet. This year in particular, there are a few contestants we really need to talk about. And in a new interview, Megan Fox has talked about the moment that drove her to give up alcohol for good, which has led to a wild Golden Globes video being resurfaced that captures a moment in time many have forgotten. Plus, Britney Spears has been dominating headlines of late as she fights to remove her conservatorship amid claims of abuse. At the same time, all eyes have turned to her younger sister Jamie Lynn Spears, who Britney supporters claim is financially benefiting from her sister’s trauma. As a battle of Instagram captions breaks out between the Spears sisters, and a petition asking for Jamie Lynn to be fired from her Netflix show grows, the allegations are taking on a more sinister edge. But there’s more to this famous family’s story that the headlines have not covered.

On the show today… Jennifer Lopez was asked about her high profile relationship with former fiance Ben Affleck during a live TV interview and it’s safe to say she was not impressed with the question. But once you know her history with the interviewer, it’s clear why the question had to be asked. Plus, the new season of The Bachelor kicks off tonight and it looks like Network Ten have made one big change to how the contestants are allowed to behave this season. It’s a change that has sparked an interesting debate about how it will affect viewer's relationship with the show. And we’re joined by the new Bachelor himself, Jimmy Nicholson! Jimmy is here to tell us why he agreed to do the show, how his love story really played out, and how he discovered some drama that was going on behind the scenes.
