On the show today… The glitzy Cannes Film Festival has come to an end, with the closing awards night ceremony drawing international headlines, thanks to one surprising moment that has been likened to the infamous Oscars La La Land / Moonlight mix-up. And Britney Spears has posted a series of passionate statements to her Instagram account, calling out people in her closest circles who have only now come to her defence as she fights to have her 13-year conservatorship removed. A few family members, in particular, were singled out in her statements, and it can all be traced back to one particular moment. Plus if you went online at all this weekend you would have seen the name ‘Katie Hopkins’ splashed across every one of your social media channels. The controversial UK broadcaster and writer was allowed to enter Australia so she could appear on the upcoming season of Big Brother VIP. Her visa has now been revoked, but the initial reason why she was allowed into the country is a much more complicated story.

On the show today… Meghan Markle has announced that she is producing a “first-ever” new children's series as part of her multimillion-dollar deal with Netflix and, similar to the launch of her book, has been met with criticism. However, when it comes to the business of being Meghan Markle, there is one key detail critics never mention. And for more than 20 years, one of Hollywood’s most infamous stories involved Lucy Liu physically attacking Bill Murray on the set of Charlie’s Angels. It was a story that ruined her reputation for decades. Now the real story about what went on that day has finally come out. Plus, it’s Weekend Watch time! There are only two new TV shows you need to watch this weekend.

On the show today… Britney Spears has once again appeared in court to denounce her 13-year conservatorship, calling the way her personal and financial affairs have been handled over the years an act of "cruelty." The judge ruled that Britney Spears can now hire her own lawyer, but the overlooked details in her testimony are truly frightening. And Chrissy Teigen has posted an emotional statement to her Instagram account, saying she “desperately wants to communicate” with her fans instead of “pretending everything is okay” following her public apology for bullying Courtney Stodden. The rest of her words completely go against the script most celebrities follow. Plus, we’re joined by the stars of the new series of Gossip Girl on Binge. Jordan Alexander, Whitney Peak, and Eli Brown join us to chat about the biggest differences between the old Gossip Girl series and the new, how the cast is already becoming targets of the paparazzi, and how the show’s diversity will change TV for the better.

On the show today… The 2021 Primetime Emmy Award nominations were announced today and there are a lot of negative headlines centering on some new Emily in Paris drama. But if you look closely at the nominations list, there’s a very different story there that deserves our attention. And Jason Sudeikis has given his first interview about splitting with his longtime fiance, and the mother of his two children, Olivia Wilde. His words paint a pretty interesting picture of what’s been going on behind the scenes.Plus, Kim Kardashian has announced Kate Moss as the new face of her billion-dollar shapewear and loungewear line Skims. In some ways, the 47-year-old supermodel is a good choice, but there’s another side to this new business relationship that no one will dare to speak about.

On the show today… Netflix have announced that a Paris Hilton cooking show is in the works, inspired by a viral video of the heiress whipping up her ‘infamous’ lasagne and lamenting about the fact that she struggles to grate cheese. But before you roll your eyes at this new series, we need to talk about why this show is very much needed. And this week makes 20 years since the premiere of Legally Blonde. To celebrate, The New York Times has run a long-form interview with the cast and creators of the iconic movie, titled 'Legally Blonde' Oral History: From Raunchy Script to Feminist Classic and there’s one factor here that will change the way you see this movie forever. Plus, this week Prince William released a statement condemning the “racist abuse” some Black football players have been facing after England lost to Italy in the 2020 Euro Championship game. His comments have sparked a fierce debate, but there is one side of this story we cannot look away from.

On the show today… A hiking photo of child star turned fashion mogul, and one-half of the Olsen twins, Ashley Olsen went viral over the weekend thanks to her surprising attire and accessories. Now we need to talk about who we want alongside us in the apocalypse. And everyone is talking about Khloe Kardashian’s new Instagram photo, but it’s the comments section that has drawn all of the attention. There’s a war of words happening between her ex-husband and her daughter's father and the backstory to it is no laughing matter. Plus Married at First Sight’s most controversial couple, Bryce Ruthven and Melissa Rawson, have announced via an interview, a photoshoot, and press release that they are expecting twins. Their news has been met with a lot of strong opinions, but there’s another layer to this media rollout that no one is talking about.

On the show today… During a recent episode of Welcome To The OC, Bitches! podcast, Rachel Bilson shared how a particular scene from season one led to some tension between her and co-star Samaire Armstrong, all linked to her real-life relationship with Adam Brody. Yes, this drama is 20 years old, but that doesn’t mean we’re not going to analyse it. And Kim Kardashian has announced that she is shutting down her KKW Beauty site so that it can come back “under a completely new brand with new formulas that are more modern and innovative”. However, there’s a lot happening behind the scenes that, after a little investigation, proves that there’s much more to this decision than meets the eye. Plus, it’s Weekend Watch time! In celebration of NAIDOC Week, we recommend a documentary and a TV drama series that highlight and celebrate Indigenous storytelling.

On the show today… The Cannes Film Festival kicked off this week and the one celebrity name dominating headlines is Adam Driver. His new movie with Marion Cotillard, Annette,  had the coveted honour of opening the festival but there's one scene, in particular, involving singing and oral sex, that has people talking and look, we’re just not sure they hand out Oscars for that… Megan Fox has given a new interview where she talks about being effectively blacklisted from Hollywood, why she’s no longer in hiding, and the one decision she is still being constantly punished for. And, by popular demand, there is one reality TV scandal currently dominating the headlines and a new documentary has captured the story, which reads like a true-crime bestseller. For the past few years, Erica Girardi splashed her wealth all over The Real Housewives of Beverly Hills, then she announced her divorce from her husband of 22 years,  famous LA attorney Tom Girardi. What happened next is completely scandalous.

On the show today… Britney Spears’ longtime manager Larry Rudolph has today resigned after working on Britney’s team for 25 years. In his resignation letter, he very pointedly stated that he had ‘never been a part of the conservatorship’ which has led to a whole new set of questions. And last month, the second highest-ranked women’s tennis player in the world, Naomi Osaka, made headlines following her announcement that she would not participate in post-match interviews at the French Open due to her mental health. Today the trailer for her new three-part Netflix docu-series was released and it promises to tell a whole new side to this story. Plus, Gigi Hadid has released an emotional open letter to “paparazzi, press and fan accounts” concerning their treatment of her baby daughter Khai. She’s not the first celebrity parent to fear for her child’s safety and privacy in this way, but the situation is a lot more complicated than one statement can convey.

On the show today… Gwen Stefani and Blake Shelton are officially married and the details about their glamorous wedding are pretty juicy. But even more interesting than the romantic pictures is the story of how they met and fell in love in the public eye. And Dannii Minogue has given a new interview about her turbulent move to the UK in 1990 and the story of how she launched her pop career. In doing so, she also revealed the hardest question she and her sister Kylie Minogue have been asked about their relationship. Plus, Florence Pugh has been dating fellow actor Zach Braff since 2018, but their relationship is still the source of negative headlines, thanks to their 21-year age difference. In a new interview, Florence explains why she thinks people are so against her relationship choice. She makes a valid point about the expectations placed on celebrities, but there's more to this particular backlash than just an age gap.
