On the show today…

In a sweet announcement video, Britney Spears has confirmed that she is engaged to her partner of four years, Sam Asghari. It’s welcome news for Britney as she fights to have her conservatorship removed, but now one rogue comment on her announcement, made by an Oscar-winning actress, is what’s making headlines.

And it’s the new TV show everyone is talking about...but not in a good way. Usher, Priyanka Chopra Jonas, and Julianne Hough are co-hosting a new reality TV series called The Activist, where six activists go head-to-head in challenges to promote their causes. The show has been met with extreme backlash, but there’s a bigger issue to discuss here.

Plus, Jennifer Lopez and Ben Affleck have made their triumphant return to the red carpet at the Venice Film Festival, but it doesn’t appear to be a decision they made lightly. Their loved-up appearance is timed nearly 18 years to the day when their relationship was at its worst, and Jennifer's choice of dress proves it wasn’t an accident.
