Usher’s set at the Super Bowl will be longer than standard halftime shows. Two minutes longer, which is huge, because the NFL and the broadcaster are notoriously strict about the runtime of the performance.

I love this blurry grey denim suit on Cate Blanchett. Only she could pull it off. And I actually think the black and grey backdrop works in her favour – it’s such a cool effect the way the colour goes in and out. (Go Fug Yourself)
Have you seen The Greatest Night in Pop yet? I was screaming in your faces about it all last week because it’s SO F-CKING GOOD so if you haven’t already, I promise, you will love it. The film is a huge hit for Netflix and is also surprisingly resonating with people who weren’t around when “We Are The World” was released.

So there’s FEUD: Capote vs the Swans about the society queens of New York City in the 60s and 70s, and then there’s Palm Royale, about the society queens of Palm Beach. The Swans would never f-ck with The Palm Beach peacocks, but they too are a (fictional) version of the Housewives we know now. I can’t wait to see this. Kristen Wiig, Ricky Martin, Allison Janney, Laura Dern, and my beloved Leslie Bibb! (OMG Blog)
There are a lot of people on TikTok trying to go viral for coining terms. And now there are people are TikTok making fun of the coin-termers.
