On the show today... Paramount Australia has announced the cast of the new series NCIS: Sydney, the first-ever international series from the popular NCIS franchise. And there are some familiar Australian faces in the lead roles. Plus, The 76th annual Tony Awards took place over the weekend, honoring the best new stars and shows on Broadway. From a writer's strike-affected ceremony to our favourite movie stars in attendance and a groundbreaking win, let's talk about how a memorable show got overshadowed by some old Glee drama. And in a recent interview, Amy Schumer appeared to have a blunt message for the women of Hollywood, saying that everyone is lying about using weight loss medications and went on the talk about her own experiences. But instead of falling into the trap of ‘catching out’ famous women, there’s a bigger issue at play here. THE END BITS Subscribe to Mamamia GET IN TOUCH: Feedback? We’re listening.

Here’s what you need to know. Plus, there are currently many reports swirling around alleging that Natalie Portman’s husband, and the father of her two children, Benjamin Millepied cheated on her.

And Abbie Chatfield has named the one question she has found offensive while doing the press rounds for her new reality show FBoy Island. So what does this question say about how Australian media works and how headlines around reality TV shows are formed? THE END BITS Subscribe to Mamamia GET IN TOUCH: Feedback? We’re listening.

On the show today… In news that might mean your favourite TV shows will never return (dramatic but true) following the ongoing Writers Guild of America strike, SAG-AFTRA, Hollywood’s largest union which represents all actors, has voted yes to greenlight their own potential strike. Here’s what all that means for the future of Hollywood. And Katherine Heigl and  Ellen Pompeo have appeared in Variety's Actor on Actors series together, discussing publicly for the first time their stint on Grey’s Anatomy and the hatred that followed Katherine when she left. Their discussion shines a whole new light on one of TV’s biggest controversies. Plus, Drew Barrymore was recently profiled in New York Magazine, which resulted in a number of outlets picking up the story and running headlines that said she wanted her mother to die. Drew then posted an emotional video to Instagram calling out these outlets for twisting her story. But we have a confession about how this story has been run and how it got so twisted.

Here’s everything you need to know about the release.

It comes following a wave of backlash against Taylor, with calls for her to be ‘held accoatble’ for Matty’s past controversies. But is this wave of concern legitimate, or this is just a way for fans to insert themselves into her story? THE END BITS Subscribe to Mamamia GET IN TOUCH: Feedback? We’re listening.

Here’s everything we know about it, including Ricky Gervais’ response.

On the show today… Sia has shared that she is on the autism spectrum on a recent podcast interview. This comes two years after the release of the singer’s highly controversial movie Music! which centred around a neurodivergent girl who found solace in music. Plus, Kate Beckinsale is the latest actor to offer up evidence that Keanu Reeves is the nicest actor in Hollywood. She took to Instagram to reminisce about Keanu jumping in to help prevent her huge wardrobe malfunction at the 1993 Cannes red carpet. And, love her or hate her, Jennifer Lawrence’s resurgence is hard to ignore. The actor had all but disappeared in recent years, but over the past week, she’s proven she is well and truly back – and is still as unapologetically herself as ever. We look inside her curated return to fame and whether we think it’ll actually work. THE END BITS Subscribe to Mamamia GET IN TOUCH: Feedback? We’re listening.

Here’s what you need to know. And, after being dubbed one of the greatest TV shows of all time, Succession came to an end last night.
