In one of our most chaotic episodes yet, Kayla and Derek are joined by Abigail Beverly Hillz to discuss the talent show, some juicy daily discourse, and navigate about 1000 technical issues and firemen. Did we agree with the top 2 of Juicy Love Dion and Mia Starr? Did Ciara Myst deserve the bottom spot? And who actually won the Zara Larsson lip sync??
