The TV Feud No One Can Stop Talking About

On the show today... David 'Kochie' Koch has announced his emotional departure from Sunrise after more than two decades behind the desk. Here's what you need to know. Also, Billie Eilish is getting really sick of people commenting on her clothing choices, as she revealed in a recent Instagram stories rant, where she took aim at "women hating ass weirdos".  Plus, we explain the drama between British TV hosts Philip Schofield and Holly Willoughby, which you've probably seen all over TikTok and Instagram over the last week. We unpack exactly what happened and how reports of Schofield's affair with a younger colleague is unfairly "tarnishing" the reputations of both hosts.  THE END BITS Subscribe to Mamamia GET IN TOUCH: Feedback?

We Finally Have Answers About Abbie Chatfield’s Controversial New Show

On the show today… The Barbie movie's full trailer and soundtrack details have been announced, and we've never been more excited for a film. And this week, The Kardashians returned with a season three premiere where Khloe Kardashian opened up about the struggles she had after welcoming her second child, Tatum, by surrogate, and we have to applaud her opening up about something that is still so taboo. Also, reality TV series FBoy Island premieres on Monday. We went undercover on set to deliver all the juicy (and phallic) details, and asked host Abbie Chatfield exactly what to expect when the wild show hits our screens. Plus, it’s Weekend Watch time! This week we have two new local shows to recommend. One is an eerie thriller based on real-life cults, and the other is a buddy comedy that will make you laugh and cry.

Why The Film Industry Turned Against Florence Pugh

On the show today… Well, it’s a sad day for anyone who uses Netflix (so, basically all of us) because the streaming service is cracking down on account sharing. Here’s what you need to know. And one of the most talked about new TV shows of the year, The Idol, made its debut this week at the Cannes Film Festival and the initial reviews and reactions are extreme, to say the least. But that's exactly what they wanted. Plus, Florence Pugh has done a new profile interview with Time magazine, focusing on the extinction of movie stars. In the interview, she talks about the movie role that almost made the film industry turn against her, but why it was still the right choice for her career.

Miley Cyrus On Being Alone With 100,000 People In The Room

On the show today… In movie news, the first teaser trailer for The Color Purple, a musical based off the stage show of the same name and Steven Spielberg’s famous 80s film, has been released, and the all-star cast gave us chills. Plus, Dua Lipa and her partner, director Romain Gavras debuted their relationship at the Cannes Film Festival, but what’s making headlines is the strange reaction from her ex, Anwar Hadid. But on closer inspection, it appears like Hadid may have had an ulterior motive. And in a new interview, Miley Cyrus has opened up about her success as a popstar and her very interesting relationship to fame, after more than half her life in the spotlight. We unpack why Miley’s stance seems so surprising, and what it says about how we see former child stars.

Yes, Kim Kardashian Is In Damage Control

On the show today… In over-the-top celebrity news, Jay Z and Beyonce have purchased the most expensive home ever sold in the state of California. But we’re not really fans of what is inside. Plus, the prestigious Cannes Film Festival is currently in full swing, meaning all our favourite celebrities are hanging out in France and making headlines. So let's talk through the biggest moments from the festival so far. And in true Kim Kardashian style, the promo clip for an upcoming podcast that she features on is going viral, thanks to her very honest parenting confessions. But what’s really driving this new wave of media for the Kardashians? Because there’s been a very subtle shift in how they promote themselves, and there’s nothing accidental about it.

This Johnny Depp Opinion Makes Us Bad Feminists

On the show today… In welcome but unexpected news, a ‘senior citizen' season of The Bachelor is coming to our screens, called The Golden Bachelor. Here’s what you need to know. Plus, Keith Urban is now a hard-hitting entertainment journalist after outing a new celebrity couple that the world has been desperate for news about. So now we need to unpack the story behind this couple and their famous exes. And this week Johnny Depp’s new movie opened the Cannes Film Festival, and the actor was met by large groups of adoring fans and received a seven-minute standing ovation for his performance, which then brought him to tears. Some people are outraged about how the actor was treated but we have an (unpopular) opinion about why it had to unfold this way.
