The Bear is a good case study in how quickly a show goes from hot to… OK. The trailer for the fifth and final season has been released and it’s pretty much been crickets.

If you think about shows like Severance, Wednesday and the Harry Potter series there’s so much anticipation. The Bear has lost that fire which is why it’s ending right on time.

Cloud 23 is Brooklyn Beckham’s hot sauce company and the marketing budget must be astronomical to be doing events like this. Brooklyn gets endless guff for being a nepo baby but a little hot sauce line seems like a fun use of the budget.

You know who else has budget right now? Crocs. Chappell Roan and Pete Davidson are wearing those bad boys everywhere.

This is such a meh cover. Bland, bland, bland. I don’t know how to put this delicately but Gracie Abrams does not have the magnetism to pull off such milquetoast art direction.

Has Dua Lipa ended (or at least dented) the hyper-perfect Instagram wedding aesthetic? Obviously every detail of her wedding was planned (down to the cigarette buffet) but there’s also a lot of candid photos and videos that aren’t filtered or airbrushed, they look human. Glamorous, but human.

Lainey wrote about corn and cheese and I’m laughing so hard at this promotional poster. “They said I couldn’t” – who is they? And what did they say you couldn’t do, tour? So, a pop star who has toured multiple times was told she can’t tour?
