On the show today…

Royston Sagigi-Baira has won the 2023 season of Australian Idol, with Phoebe Stewart placing as runner-up. The sweet finale has been called a “trainwreck” but that’s not exactly what took place.

Plus, photos and videos of Emily Ratajkowski and Harry Styles kissing in the rain dominated our news feeds over the weekend, so now we have some important issues to discuss. Like, why did their mouths not align? Why did they choose to stand under a spotlight in the rain? And who was the mysterious cyclist who attempted to sabotage them?

And over the weekend Selena Gomez and Hailey Bieber both released statements calling for the public hatred of Hailey to end after the model said she had been receiving death threats. While the statements appeared to be a show of solidarity, the fandoms of the two women have taken them a very different way.
