The Golden Bachelor premiered this week and Australia has fallen in love with a single dad named Bear and his new harem of single ladies, but what is it about this series that has everyone back on the Bachelor train? We explore that along with some scandalous behind the scenes gossip.

Plus, Jennifer Lawrence and Robert Pattinson are starring in a highly anticipated new movie together and their press tour is off to a truly impressive start. So, what really prompted Jennifer to tell a ‘trashy’ story about Rob? We have a pretty good idea.

And Kristen Bell wished her husband Dax Shepard a happy wedding anniversary via a message and photo posted to her Instagram account, and it’s left many people furious. Now we need to unpack exactly what led to this message and how much of the anger is justified.
