It’s Easter Monday, so what better way to enjoy your choccie eggs than with some equally sweet banter? The gals kick things off with a definitive list of the most embarrassing things one can do as an adult, the celeb memoir they can’t wait to sink their teeth into, and why Lu’s recent mumcation with Revs has totally reset her nervous system. Then, onto the big one: are we finally over Married At First Sight? Why Australia’s favourite trash TV is starting to feel a little… icky. Plus, Lu breaks down Swedish pop princess Zara Larsson’s glow-up and why her rebrand is a full-blown masterclass in listening to meme culture. And in very important Instagram news - there’s a new feature that could change the stalking game forever. But do we love it or hate it? Finally, our INs and OUTs for the week riff on live music, cute knickers and a fiery new email sign-off.

Starting the week with a BB-bang, we’re riding high on the news that we’re getting our very own Kylie Minogue Super Bowl performance at the AFL Grand Final later in the year. Plus, her latest Chanel campaign with Margot Robbie has us ~yearning~ for the Y2K glory days. Meanwhile, our fave billionaire babe Taylor Swift and her soon-to-be groom, Travis Kelce, are reportedly plotting a global honeymoon tour, and Australia is on the hit list! Naturally, we have thoughts (and a few notes) on the rest of the itinerary. You’ve heard of ‘siblings or dating’, but allow us to introduce its slightly more cursed iteration: ‘mommy or dating’. Inspired by Australia’s first son, Bobbie Irwin, and his rumoured new flame, who just so happens to be a dead ringer for his mama, Terri Irwin. In Gen Z posing news, duck lips are officially out (RIP to us millennials), and the ‘platypus pout’ is in. We break down exactly what it is, how to do it, and revisit the lewks that defined each generation. We cap it all off with some unhinged IN & OUT energy, sharing our cute autumn fashion picks and some very firm opinions on one particular kids’ party game.

Are you dating your dad?! And WTF is the platypus pout 🤔

Ya gals are back and it’s a very self-helpy flavour today! We’re kicking things off with an update on Lu’s love life, revealing why she’s finally letting her freak flag fly. Then, we unpack just how much Taylor Swift is actually worth and it’s jaw-on-the-floor stuff. Onto more serious matters, BB is on a mission to reboot her troubled little soul after a string of intense night terrors, and she’s turning to the likes of Dua Lipa and the late Princess Diana for a little woo-woo inspo, naturally. Meanwhile, Lu takes us on a very detailed breakdown of the most of-the-moment nail trends - from colours to shapes to nail art, and it’s almost convinced raw-dog enthusiast BB to finally hit the salon. When was the last time you cried? It might be time to schedule in a three-minute ‘power cry’, because comedian Tanya Hennessy’s latest column for Body+Soul has us fully sold. Finally, our ins and outs for the week include a hideously ugly yet seriously delicious DIY dessert, plus a wholesome family hobby to add to your roster.

Taylor Swift’s worth HOW much?! Plus, the rise of the ‘power cry’ 😭

Happy Oscars Day, DLs. Lukewarm take, but are the Oscars the most boring red carpet of them all? We’re recapping the best lewks from Hollywood’s night of nights while also pondering why this year’s ceremony feels a little… meh. Next up, there’s nothing more Fifth Trimester energy than throwing a party. Whether it’s a “just because” shindig or a milestone moment, as Gem and Revs always say - mark the moment. We’re sharing our best party-planning intel for pulling off an iconic event to remember. Whatever your party personality, we’ve got the vision board for you. Then we’re breaking down the steamy new Netflix show Vladimir, starring Rachel Weisz and Leo Woodall, and asking the important question: is this good news or bad news for the MILFs? Finally, our ins and outs include a micro-act of school WhatsApp-group feminism and a very tasty new snack… with garlic?!
