Celeb in 5: Wednesday's best entertainment and gossip news.

1. The utterly bizarre moment ACA tracked Nick Cummins down in PNG to confront him.

Last week’s The Bachelor finale left us with a lot of unanswered questions.

Why? Where did things go wrong? Did you actually want to find love? Why?!

Everyone knows when you want to get down to the bottom of a debacle such as this one, the only place to turn to is Channel Nine’s A Current Affair.

Thankfully, they’re one step ahead of us because the TV show went and accosted Nick Cummins in Papua New Guinea at a hotel pool.

Wearing nothing but a white robe, Honey Badger was asked by ACA reporter Reid Butler, “Sorry to do this to you, but can we ask you a few questions about the mess you’ve left back home?”

As you can imagine, the encounter was not received well by Nick… you can watch a snippet of the segment which will air tonight below.

2. Taylor Swift got political again as she made history at the American Music Awards.


Taylor Swift has never been all that political.

But, hey, it’s a new week, and with Brett Kavanaugh’s acceptance onto the Supreme Court, what better time for the singer to use her influence for good.

After telling her 112 million fans on Instagram earlier this week who to vote for in the upcoming midterm elections, the most decorated female American Music Awards winner ever used her acceptance speech for Artist of the Year at the AMAs on Tuesday to share another political message.

She added, “It’s almost like she chose her name.”

Kylie said she decided on the change at the very moment she had to make it official on her baby’s birth certificate.

“Literally right then and there I just changed it to an ‘i’ and I hung up the phone and was like, ‘Damn, I guess that’s her name.'”

Damn, so that’s how history was made.

4. Carrie Bickmore just shared a mesmerising pregnancy moment with her kids.

Carrie Bickmore’s unborn baby is breakdancing inside her belly.

…Or so it seems in an adorable Instagram post from The Project host earlier today.

The heavily pregnant mum-of-two shared a mesmerising video of her active baby’s kicks – but the most touching part of the post is her daughter Evie’s hand seen resting on her mum’s tummy, feeling every kick for herself.

“Love a little hand feeling its brother or sister kick,” Carrie captioned the video below.

Carrie, 37, has been documenting her pregnancy on Instagram – sharing everything from the announcement, her cravings (cake!), pregnancy looks and heartwarming family moments. We can’t get enough of it.

This is baby number three for Carrie, who already has an 11-year-old son, Ollie, with late husband, Greg Lange, and three-year-old daughter Evie with her current husband, Chris Walker.

We just can’t wait to meet her tiny dancer.

5. Everything we’ve managed to uncover by stalking The Bachelorette contestants on Instagram.

Well, well, well.

If I haven’t spent approximately the last 57 hours stalking random attractive men on Instagram for… research. 

You see, tonight Ali Oetjen will meet 18 potential boyfriends in front of The Bachelorette mansion.

Most of them will be… white.

A fair few of them will be called… Daniel.

And at least one of them will end up locked up in a basement with Ali forever if Osher gets his way.

Jeez, ACA tracking down the Honey Badger like he’s some escaped fugitive or something. Leave the poor bloke alone. “Sorry to do this to you..,” no you’re not. Someone help me out, I may be remembering things wrong, but wasn’t ACA once a serious current affairs show? Back in the day, when it was hosted by Jana Wendt and Ray Martin, didn’t it once involve proper credible journalism? Or am I just falling into the ‘good old days’ way of thinking?

Ray Martin gave up serious journalism when he left 60 Minutes. Remember ACA and Ray inspired Mike Moore and "Frontline" on the ABC...

Yeah, I’d forgotten about that. But Jana was good, right? Please tell me my memories aren’t completely wrong!
