Why The World Could Turn Against Anne Hathaway Again & Kate Hudson’s Headline-Making Dating Ick

Why The World Could Turn Against Anne Hathaway Again & Kate Hudson’s Headline-Making Dating Ick

First up, we weigh in on Kate Hudson’s ick, she knows it's controversial, and yet she said it anyway.

Plus, after a year of intense online harassment, a certain Irish star has finally sat down to address the "dirty laundry" surrounding his high-profile breakup. We unpack whether the internet's take down of Barry was called for or did the pile-on go too far.

And finally, the trailer for the new Colleen Hoover adaptation is here and it’s reignited a debate about one of our most iconic leading ladies. We unpack why the "Hatha-hate" narrative is resurfacing in 2026 and question why society is still so quick to turn on women at the height of their success (plus Laura spills on what Anne is actually like behind closed doors).
