On the show today…

Following on from allegations made by fashion designer Michael Costello, where he alleged that Chrissy Teigen had tormented him to the point of suicide, singer Leona Lewis has now weighed in on the story. The musician alleges that Michael bullied her at a fashion show and refused to dress her because of her size. The responses and allegations are now coming thick and fast, but we also need to look at how and why this is playing out in the public eye.

And former UK and US X-Factor judge Louis Walsh has spoken about his experience of working on the franchise alongside Britney Spears and he paints a disturbing picture of her health and situation behind the scenes. But aside from genuine concern, there’s also a more sinister reason why he chose to tell this particular story.

Plus, Billie Eilish is facing accusations of queerbaiting in her latest music video and Instagram posts. And she’s not the first celebrity to be part of this conversation.

The Real Story Behind The New Billie Eilish Outrage

First up, a massive celebrity engagement has taken a bizarrely fated turn after fans discovered a hidden connection between Harry Styles, Zoe Kravitz and a beloved book franchise. Plus, we're dissecting the first grainy on-set photos from a highly anticipated movie sequel - including a certain "upgraded" diamond ring that has the internet comparing old flames .

Plus, we have a very serious theory about a sky-blue dress and a horseshoe necklace. We’re unpacking why a certain countdown appeared and vanished on a major artist's website, and whether she is about to pivot into the world of animated sequels to finally secure her "EGOT" status.

And finally, the real-life inspiration behind one of cinema's most iconic "assistant" roles has finally stepped out of the shadows after twenty years. We get into her "savage" rebuttal to the woman who wrote the book and her mortifying encounter at a mutual friend’s house with the A-list actress who played her on screen. 

Read the Vogue interview with the real life Emily from Devil Wears Prada here.

MORNING TEA: The Bezos Met Gala Backlash & The Boyband Moment That Broke The Internet

https://api.omny.fm/orgs/3ea926be-9be7-482a-8ac3-a44f016e43d1/clips/5507bf6f-9ede-4b90-b30d-b43d000486ae/transcript

It's the Netflix comedy from Mindy Kaling starring Kate Hudson that is equal parts glossy, chaotic, and completely addictive. Yep, we’re diving headfirst into Running Point Season 2!

It’s a sports show, a family mess, a workplace comedy, and a rom-com experiment all at once — and somehow we’re still fully invested. We unpack why Isla Gordon is such a compelling disaster of a lead, why Season 2 pushes her even further into chaos, and why we can’t decide if we want to be her or run from her.

We get into the love triangle that keeps collapsing under its own “perfect vs passion” logic, why Lev stops feeling so perfect this season, and how Coach Jay suddenly becomes a lot more interesting than expected. Plus, the friendship storyline that quietly becomes the emotional centre of the entire season, Cam’s slow villain energy, and the cameos that feel like Mindy Kaling collecting icons for fun.

And then there’s that finale — the betrayal, the twist, and the very obvious setup for Season 3 chaos.
