On the show today…

One of the biggest headlines crowding your social media feeds of late would have been the fact that Beyonce has been publicly criticised for wearing a ‘blood diamond’ alongside her husband Jay-Z in a new ad campaign for Tiffany & Co. The story behind the infamous Tiffany necklace is one steeped in controversy, but before you make a snap judgment, you have to hear Beyonce’s side of the story.

Plus, the first trailer for the highly anticipated new series Impeachment: American Crime Story has dropped and its brought one of the world’s most infamous political stories back into the spotlight. The series will chronicle former US President Bill Clinton's impeachment, with a focus on former White House intern Monica Lewinsky. It’s now come to light that a particularly controversial scene was almost cut from the series, but it was Monica who pushed for it to be kept in, at her own expense.

And in the lead-up to the release of his new album Donda, Kanye West held yet another stadium listening party and this time he pulled out all the stops. The event included controversial appearances by Marilyn Manson and DaBaby, Kanye setting himself on fire and a moment where his soon-to-be ex-wife Kim Kardashian walked toward him in a wedding gown. Fans are speculating that the stunt means the couple is getting back together, but the real story is a lot more intense.
