The Spill

On the show today… Yesterday it was reported that MasterChef Australia judge Jock Zonfrillo had sadly died in Melbourne aged 46. A statement from his family read: “For those who crossed his path, became his mate, or were lucky enough to be his family, keep this proud Scot in your hearts.” It’s Met Gala day and the sea of celebrities dressed in over-the-top gowns did not disappoint. First, we had a battle of the cat outfits, followed by nearly every attendee drowning under layers of pearls. From surprise pregnancy announcements to juicy relationship reveals, Pedro Pascal’s knees, and a celebrity love triangle on full display, let’s unpack the biggest moments from the 2023 Met Gala.

On the show today… I'm A Celebrity...Get Me Out Of Here! has come to an end with Liz Ellis being crowned Queen of the Jungle. And there’s a very welcome reason why Australia fell in love with her. Plus Kyle Sandilands and Tegan Kynaston’s opulent wedding took place over the weekend and whether you like it or not the pictures, celebrity guest list, and outrageous amounts of money spent on flowers dominated the headlines. So now we need to talk through the most eye-brow-raising moments. And Sofia Richie pulled off an unprecedented PR move when it came to documenting her wedding, resulting in her new It Girl status. Now the conversation has turned to Nicola Peltz Beckham (or more pointedly, comparing their two weddings) and it’s shining an uncomfortable light on how unforgiving the world can be when your brand just doesn’t land.

On the show today… The Real Housewives of Sydney is officially returning to our screens after a very controversial first season. Allow us to take you through the celebrity names we have reason to believe are joining the show. And the first trailer for season three of The Kardashians was released today and it’s the most drama we’ve seen from this famous family in a long time. What’s even more interesting than the tears and fights, however, is that the Kardashians seem to be backtracking on their brand, which goes against a viral interview Kim gave this week. Plus, it’s Weekend Watch time! This week we have a big-budget thriller with an all-star cast to recommend to you, along with a TV series that will scar your socks off.

On the show today… The first trailer for And Just Like That season two premiered today and it’s given us a pretty good idea of just how drastically different these new storylines are going to be. Plus, we had a pretty extreme reaction to one particular cameo. And, look, we’ve seen the Kardashians and their significant others try and sell us some pretty wild items over the years, but nothing quite prepared us for Travis Barker’s new enema kit, and the commercial that went with it. Plus, Melanie Lynskey is very much the actress of the moment, but this week she’s gone viral for all the wrong reasons. The Yellowjackets and The Last Of Us actress opened up about the heartbreak of no longer being in contact with a very famous friend, and the reaction to her words says something about our obsession with female friendships and the pain of losing them. THE END BITS Listen to Melanie's episode of Happy Sad Confused here.

On the show today… Cinemacon took place this weekend, gifting us some new information about this year’s most anticipated movies. So why was Ryan Gosling getting emotional and Timothée Chalamet pictured with a giant worm? Allow us to explain. And Melissa McCarthy is the cover star for People's 2023 Beautiful Issue, but the cover image reveal has been met with a wave of disappointment. Her interview is inspiring and the photo shoot is beautiful, but there’s one nagging issue that won’t go away. Plus, there is a new Hollywood scandal brewing and it started right here in Australia. Glen Powell and Sydney Sweeney are starring in a new x-rated rom-com together and after some interesting Instagram activity fans now believe they are hooking up. So now we need to unpack the fine line rom-com stars need to walk in public because we’ve seen it all go wrong before.

On the show today… According to a new report, Meghan Markle sent a secret letter to Prince Charles after her Oprah interview about racism in the royal family. Now Meghan Markle has responded to the allegations. Plus, we have an early contender for celebrity wedding of the year after Sofia Richie and Elliot Grainge were married in France over the weekend. From celebrity guests to couture looks and a wild ex-boyfriend story, here's what you need to know. And it’s been a big weekend for Taylor Swift, or at least for the paparazzi who are following her. A series of photos of both Taylor and her ex-boyfriend Joe Alwyn have surfaced, telling two very different stories, but there’s a lot more going on here than just a basic revenge narrative.

Welcome to this bonus episode of The Spill! This month we are unpacking the Prime Video series Daisy Jones & the Six, based on the best-selling book.

On the show today… It has been confirmed that the criminal charges against Alec Baldwin for the fatal shooting of cinematographer Halyna Hutchins have been dropped. Here’s what you need to know. And it’s been pretty much confirmed, via reps and the odd paparazzi photo, that Kylie Jenner and Timothée Chalamet are indeed dating. And while we love a good celebrity love story, the questions about this particular relationship are veering into the wrong territory. Plus, it’s Weekend Watch time! Today we have a brutal new reality show and a beautifully moving dark comedy to recommend to you.

On the show today… When it was first announced, the new reality series F Boy Island made headlines thanks to its eyebrow-raising premise. This week Binge announced the show’s three leading ladies, and gave more information about what the show would really be about, so here’s what you need to know. Plus, Jonathan Majors was set to be one of Hollywood’s biggest new names after starring in a string of critically acclaimed movies and TV shows. Then a series of alleged domestic assault allegations were made against him and his opportunities began to disappear. But as one of the biggest stars of the new Marvel Cinematic Universe, what happens next? And photos of Lizzo have been trending across social media this week, but not for a very good reason. The conversation around what a body “should” look like has resulted in the weaponization of photos of stars like Kim Kardashian and Lizzo, with everyone picking a side. So now we need to unpack what’s really driving this conversation.

On the show today… The first teaser trailer and release date for the highly anticipated new series The Idol, starring Abel “The Weeknd” Tesfaye and Lily-Rose Depp have been released, but prior to this the series was already making headlines. And Rachel McAdams has given a new interview detailing the biggest movie roles she has ever turned down, why she once walked off a photoshoot, and her need to leave the industry for over two years at the height of her fame. But all anyone wants to talk about is her armpits. Plus, during one of the biggest years in her career, Megan Thee Stallion was shot by someone she considered a close friend and colleague. Instead of supporting her, some of music’s biggest names publicly mocked her and even write songs about her pain. This week she has written a brutally honest essay about exactly what happened to her and you need to be across this story.
