Intro for May 25, 2026

Dear Gossips, It is Memorial Day in the United States and the American Music Awards are happening tonight in Las Vegas. But that’s not the biggest show in Vegas right now. As noted last week, Vegas for days has been taken over by BTS. This is not an exaggeration.

Lewis Hamilton’s good luck charm

The 2026 Formula 1 season is now five races deep, and while the biggest non-race related gossip in the paddock continues to be Lewis Hamilton’s relationship with Kim Kardashian, we’ve yet to see her in the Ferrari garage. Depending on how you feel about the Kardashian-Jenners, Kim is

TNT: Courtside and Backtrack

The NBA Eastern Conference Finals were in Cleveland this weekend, Taylor Swift and Travis Kelce showed up to support the Cavs, though their presence didn’t help – the Knicks now have a commanding 3-0 lead in the series, riding a 10-game win streak through the playoffs. Back to TNT though,

Vroom vroom boys

The Canadian Grand Prix is happening this weekend in Montreal, and honestly, I think one of the sexiest things about Canada is that Montreal hosts a Formula 1 race. I don’t really care about Formula 1, in practice, but in the abstract, it’s super sexy. It’s fast

Penelope and Tilda as Cannes winds down

Cannes may be winding down but the fashion is not. Case in point, Tilda Swinton showed up for the premiere of the Spanish film La Bola Negra (The Black Ball) in an ombre Chanel suit with icy platinum hair. This look would do David Bowie proud. View this post on

Matching Exes

Jennifer Garner and Ben Affleck were photographed yesterday looking like they stepped out of a K-drama because this is a classic K-drama mood with the OTP, your FL and ML will always be styled in similar colours and energy to underscore that they are who we should be rooting for.

Zendaya...

It’s a quality so rare and special, I don’t think I’ll be able to adequately describe it. But if there’s a limited supply of it in the cosmos, Zendaya possesses almost all of it: the ability to be everywhere… but still be missed, so that when

The Double Date they (and/or we?) deserve

In the celebrity ecosystem, celebrity friendship and celebrity double dates have been foundational throughout gossip history. We love when celebrities are friends, and we love when those celebrity friends go on double dates. Few people understand this better than Taylor Swift, by the way, as evidenced by the way she

Taylor Swift has resurfaced with Travis Kelce in London. This is happening five weeks before one of her rumoured wedding dates – June 13, because it’s a Saturday and 13 is her favourite number – and eight weeks before her other rumoured wedding date, July 4, because it’s Independence Day

Blake and Barbie 'met' boring again

Let me try to avoid landmines and mess in this post, LOL. The fact that I’m pairing Blake Lively and Margot Robbie, though, probably isn’t helping. But I have editorial and narrative justification for it, so can we ignore the internet conspiracy theories and just focus on the
