An Unpopular Opinion About Those Taylor Swift And Sophie Turner Photos 21.09.2023

Yesterday Sophie Turner just about broke the internet when she was photographed in New York, arm-in-arm Taylor Swift (AKA her ex-husbands ex-girlfriend).  People are calling it ‘ the greatest PR move of all time ’, but our host Laura doesn't necessarily agree. Today we examine the photos and whether they prove that Joe Jonas' PR campaign against Sophie failed. THE END BITS Subscribe to Mamamia GET...

Will This Footage Destroy The Kardashians? 20.09.2023

The Kardashian's have built themselves a mighty media empire, but according to an upcoming documentary it could all be about to crumble with the show claiming to have 'never-before-seen footage that the famous family don't want people to see'.  Now I know what you're thinking: 'We've literally seen one of these gals pull a child out of herself in a birthing suite, surely we've seen everything ther...

The Hidden Detail In Celebrity Apology Videos That Drastically Changes Their Story 19.09.2023

There's been A LOT of celebrity apology videos of late. In the last week alone we've seen Mila Kunis and Ashton Kutcher post one, and Drew Barrymore too.

We've been covering the Hollywood writers strike for a while now, from show cancellations to what's happening at the picketing lines. But this week it's taken a very unexpected turn... with red carpets and movie sets on pause the celebrities are having to get day jobs.  Sure, they're not day jobs like we have (no one's manning the Maccas drive-thru), but the endorsement and even product placement...

The Most Important Part Of The VMAs No One Saw 14.09.2023

As you’re probably aware (thanks to your TikTok and Instagram feeds), the MTV VMAs went down yesterday with pretty much everyone who’s anyone in the music biz in attendance. There were awards, there were performances, there were surprise reunions of iconic 90s boy bands… but mostly there was just standard award show stuff being captured on stage. But we’re more interested in what was happening  of...

Victoria Beckham's War With The Royal Family Could Be Real 06.09.2023

It’s a royal face off … sort of. It seems a feud that’s been bubbling away for years has recently resurfaced thanks to an unsuspecting Brooklyn Beckham.

But this Beckham V Sussex story extends back years & we think we know why it’s been s...

One Question Reignited The Taylor Swift & Olivia Rodrigo Feud Story 05.09.2023

Okay, but do Olivia Rodrigo & Taylor Swift have bad blood? To be honest, we’re not convinced. Rumours and stories of their feud ring back to Taylor claiming songwriting credits on Olivia’s first record Sour.

In 2023,...
