A shocking new industry study has exposed a massive crisis for Hollywood women, and one of our absolute fave British icons has thrown her support behind a new campaign to fight this erasure, sharing her own experiences with vulnerable on-screen moments.

Meanwhile, a viral video of Russell Crowe confronting a crowd outside his hotel has ignited a massive online debate about celebrity boundaries. We unpack the intense double standards at play and look at why public reactions look so different when a leading lady tries to say no.

Plus, the reality television reunion the entire world has been waiting for has finally dropped, and the fallout from an ultimate friendship betrayal is completely unhinged. We dissect the shocking moment a star was caught out by her location data, leaving her former best friend devastated in the street while the man at the centre plays the silent coward.
