There are some scandalous new developments in the Blake Lively legal battle, and they involve a very unexpected cameo from a sitcom legend. We break down the "creepy and abusive" allegations thrown around in leaked texts, what Colleen Hoover is telling Justin Baldoni, and why this legal war has left no winners.

Plus there’s a new box office king in town - and you will never guess who. Today we introduce you to the "old soul" teenager who is currently the most bankable star in the world and explain why his rise might signal the final death of the traditional "movie star".

And a Labubu movie is on the way and Laura is spiralling. Chelsea Hui, Mamamia’s Entertainment Producer and our resident Gen Z expert joins us to explain why people are paying hundreds of dollars for these "demonic" furry creatures, but Laura is still convinced they’re going to rise up and take over the world.
