We have talked about A LOT of petty queens on this show, from Julia Roberts to Taylor Swift, but in 2023 we have seen a new bread of petty queens rise up... and we are here for it! 

Enter Shakira and Lana Del Rey.

This episode Shannen unpacks Lana's infamous Tulsa billboard, and Shakira's brand new song shading her ex and his mum.

This episode really poses the question is pettiness the best form of publicity?

Shakira, Lana & The Rise Of The Petty Queen

For Jennifer Lopez and Ben Affleck, entering the Cancelled courtroom together is just another collaboration to add to their long list of projects, so why not one more?

Before "Bennifer" even existed, they starred in a (very wrong) movie called Gigli (yes we've spoken about it before, yes it deserves another moment in Cancelled courtroom). Skip forward twenty years, they've rekindled their love, married and made a few more films, like This Is Me... Now and The Love Story Never Told. Art. 

Today, we're investigating that time Ben had a simple thirst for water and ended up in a strip club quenching said thirst. Did he take the wrong turn? 

Also, you may have seen the sad Ben phenomenon, but we can't punish him because he doesn't smile much in public, can we? It's time for a risk assessment on their relationship.

This is Bennifer... Now.

Introducing: Things You Didn't Learn In School

In the early 2010’s Gen Z cared about two things A LOT, the movie franchise Twilight, and the fact that it’s stars we’re dating in real life. That was until certain pap photos surfaced breaking the two apart and breaking the hearts of Gen Z’s (and oddly some Gen Xers) everywhere. 

This episode Shannen takes Holly through a cheating scandal so big the former US President weighed in, and Holly surprises everyone with a secret obsession.  

And, we have some sad news... this will be our last ever episode of Lowbrow. We have absolutely love bringing you stories from the pop-culture archive, thank you so much for joining us along the way!
