Royals Intro for July 21, 2021 Dear Gossips, No surprise that the news about Prince Harry’s memoir is a major fixation for the UK tabloids. And no surprise that the Queen’s Diamond Jubilee next year is coming up by association.

Celebrity Social Media Celebrity Social Media, July 20, 2021 To celebrate the 26th anniversary of Clueless, Alicia Silverstone made a TikTok, again with her son as her scene partner. It’s cute. And I know in the movie she was wearing Calvin Klein, but I wonder if her dress here is Calvin Klein. It certainly looks like the 90s By Maria • Jul 20, 2021 02:56 pm

TV Updates Top Chef Season 18: The Discomfort of My Comfort TV Like many people, much of my comfort TV revolves around food. The Great British Baking Show helped me cope with the 2016 election. The Chef Show got my kids to try (and for my son to love) oysters. And Top Chef inspired me to always travel with a food itinerary, By Violeta • Jul 20, 2021 01:13 pm
Style Storm Reid’s Tennis Dinner Storm Reid went for dinner the other night at Giorgio Baldi and the topic here is her dinner outfit. Maybe she was coming straight from a tennis match or a tennis lesson and things got late so she didn’t have time to go home and shower. Or maybe there By Lainey • Jul 20, 2021 12:04 pm
TV Updates It’s almost Ted time! Ted Lasso returns this week, and not a moment too soon. It was the feel-good show of 2020, and since 2021 is its own kind of dumpster fire—guys, I’m starting to think things are just sh-tty now, everywhere, all the time—we could use a little of that By Sarah • Jul 20, 2021 10:18 am
Top Reads Harry: His True Story The big royal headline of the week landed yesterday afternoon ET – Prince Harry is writing his memoir, to be published through Penguin Random House, “tentatively scheduled for late 2022”.

Music Intro for July 20, 2021 Dear Gossips, At this point, it was expected, although it’s never a guarantee. Maybe it is now? After seven weeks at #1 on the Billboard Hot 100 with “Butter”, BTS has knocked their own song out of the top spot with their new song, “Permission to Dance”. Billboard made By Lainey • Jul 20, 2021 08:52 am
What Else What Else? BREAKING NEWS! Penguin Random House just announced that Prince Harry is writing a memoir! The release date is late 2022 so we’re still a year away from publication.

Celebrity Social Media Celebrity Social Media, July 19, 2021 My brain knows this is a reality TV show about an AI pop star (I think??) which is predictably gimmicky, but seeing Alanis Morissette on that panel is surprising. This is my thinking: every talent show needs hosts, so Nick Lachey and Rocsi Diaz make sense. Will.i.am has By Maria • Jul 19, 2021 03:09 pm
