Katy Perry was at Taylor Swift’s show in Sydney this weekend and Spillers, we think it’s suss.

In typical (red flag laden) fashion, Married At First Sight has dropped another spicy episode. But it’s what happened after the cameras stopped rolling that’s got us talking.

Rise and shine girlies, Kylie Jenner has shared a day in the life TikTok… and we’re confused. Contentious coffee cups and an ungodly range of transport aside, we’re putting her vlog under the microscope.

Okay, but is Taylor Swift the answer to the cozzie livs crisis? Part one of her Eras tour has generated some serious cash for the economy, but not everyone is feeling the Taylor love.

Jennifer Lopez wants you to know she’s in love… and that’s ok. We’re putting our (one sided) feud with Jenny from the block on hold to discuss her new movie/album/experience.

THIS IS NOT A DRILL. Beyonce has dropped new music… and it’s country themed?

If you’ve only seen snippets, we watched the whole thing and are breaking down the parts that TikTok missed. And, Taylor Swift's PR team deserves a medal for shifting the focus away from the Grammys drama and making the...

The Dakota Johnson honeymoon phase is over. While on the press tour for her upcoming film  Madame Web , Dakota waded back into the nepo baby conversation. And tbh we’re kind of over it.
