On the show today…
You’ve probably heard of TED talks, but what about ‘TED Twerks’? Lizzo spoke about the origins of twerking in a recent TED Talk sneak peek and you need to hear the brilliant way she explains the significance of twerking in Black culture.
And, Seven Network confirmed its all-star cast for the Big Brother VIP series, and there are a few surprising names on this cast list. We need to talk about the just-released trailer for the show and how Thomas Markle Jr attacks his younger sister Meghan Markle.
Plus, Jessie J came under fire this weekend for misrepresenting the origins of the 2014 hit song, Bang Bang. In an interview for Glamour magazine, Jessie J described how Nicky Minaj supposedly asked to join her and Ariana Grande on the song, but Nicki has a completely different version of events. It’s time to talk about what really happens behind the scenes of these celebrity collaborations.
