57m 3s
The podcast episode opens by acknowledging its speculative nature in covering celebrity news. It then addresses a listener's correction regarding the Baha'i faith, detailing its focus on service, education, and tolerance. The discussion shifts to "The White Lotus," revealing alleged behind-the-scenes tensions where creator Mike White reportedly fired much of the original crew due to creative differences and a loss of control during season three, leading him to hire a local crew for the upcoming season four in France. The host actively debunks a viral rumor, confirming from a source that Justin and Hailey Bieber did not fight at a Grammys after-party and that Hailey's early exit was likely mundane. Finally, the episode confirms that Taylor Swift attended Jack Antonoff's private Grammys party, dispelling rumors of a strained friendship, and notes Sabrina Carpenter was also present with an unidentified blonde man. The host emphasizes a preference for positive reporting over sensationalized negativity.

This week I'm talking about the white lotus, Justin and Haley Bieber, Taylor Swift, Sabrina Carpenter, Bella Hadid, and I answered the Do You Hotline. Let's get started. Hi everyone, welcome back to another episode of The Do You Podcast, everyone's favorite source for celebrity news. Celebrity news for the people by the people. Hi Hannah, how are you? I'm great, freezing, but good. Yeah, it's cold. Did you watch the Grammys? I did not. Okay, not required of you. It's fine. The Grammys are the most boring to me. I don't know a lot of artists. I think it depends. I've watched past years and thought, wow, this is definitely not boring. This year I thought it was a little bit boring. There were some great performances, Justin Bieber, Sabrina Carpenter, Lauren Hill was a great performance. But yeah, I hear you. I hear you. We're going to talk a little bit about the Grammy after party is in a bit. I have an update for everyone that I want to share. This is something that was discussed on last week's episode at the end of the episode two people had called in to question about this had to do with the Balzoni lively unsealed text messages and emails that had hit social media and the media in the past couple of weeks. I already called into ask about why Blake lively kept referring to Justin Balzoni being in a cult and I had said on the podcast last week that's not a cult. It's a religion. The Baha'i faith is specifically what it's called somebody who listened to that episode called and said hi. The husband was raised by high and I would like to tell you a couple things about it that you may hopefully pass on to your listeners. This person's the background is they were raised without religion, but their grandmother was Muslim and their other grandmother was Southern Baptist. The guys are the nicest people in the world. The whole religion is based around service. The kids in high school/college age do a year of service somewhere while growing up they are required to learn about every religion and given the option to choose to continue being Baha'i or not. My favorite thing. If a family is poor and they have one son and one daughter, the daughter should be the one educated because she will be the teacher of her children. They do not drink or do drugs and are very peaceful. As a result, they tend to be people with many hobbies and very well read. I'm impressed by all of them. I can go on but to me, these facts paint a picture of who they are as a community. Love and service is what they represent. Best religion I've seen in my opinion according to this person. So thank you for writing it and sharing that. I do think that it is important to be educated on these things. I think I talked a little bit about how last week throwing around the word cult and I've learned this from doing it and being told not to throwing around that word is offensive to certain religions or organizations. So I think that it's nice to be educated and learn the difference between the two. So thank you to this person for sharing. The next piece of information that I want to touch upon. And this was because in the past week, more cast members of the new season of White Lotus have been announced. Ellen Bonham Carter and Alexander Ludwig will be joining Caleb, John T Edwards and Marissa Long along with Chris Messina. So I believe that those are all of. Oh, I'm sorry, and Steve Cougan has also been announced. I believe that that is all that has been announced so far. I'm assuming more cast members will be added to a part two announcement. A lot of people have asked me if I've heard of anyone joining the cast and the only person that I heard and this was back in November. I've talked about this a couple of times, but not that much. Is Anna Lee Ashford and this person specifically said as of now, OK, which was November 30th, 2025, she would be joining. Now we're in to February 2026. I don't know if that exactly panned out, but that was the only name that I heard that was leaked as far as other intel about the season. I did receive a little bit of information. This is, however, regarding Mike White. It was reported last year in a variety that Mike White fired. He was called Topia DeVier, who was the show's composer, and he was not returning for season four due to creative differences. That is why the theme music for the show changed. I believe between season two and three. There were ongoing creative differences that I guess ultimately led him to being fired for season four. Well, it seems like that there were a lot of other behind the scenes differences between Mike White and the powers that be, I'm not exactly sure, season three. Let me just read you with this person says Mike White was allegedly unhappy with season three and felt the show had gotten away from him. He wasn't even directing in Thailand. He would show up to the set allegedly unaware of what they were shooting that day. Last fall before casting, he allegedly fired his crew that had worked on the previous three seasons, including really good friends of his the assistant director, writers, make up artists hair. This is even including people that were Emmy nominated wardrobe camera man, everyone. He didn't even tell them personally allegedly everyone received an email from executives that they were fired. They're shooting in France this season and he's only hiring locals saying it's a budgeting thing. He did something similar back with the composer. That's what I was just trying to articulate prior to reading this. Before season three, that's why that iconic theme song wasn't a part of the intro for Thailand. Okay, so just to correct myself, I guess he was fired before season three, the composer of the first two seasons. In my opinion, after hearing this information, it seems like Mike White somehow got fucked over. I kept asking this person why was he being undermined on season three, you know, why were scenes being directed without him or without his knowledge allegedly this person didn't know the answer to why that was happening. But it sounds to me like he felt like he couldn't trust anyone who had been working on the show and wiped the slate clean and is now running the show again his way in France with a local crew. That's what I got out of this message. Yeah, so who knew I didn't know that there was any drama behind the scenes from season three. I knew a little bit about the cast dynamics after the season films and they were back from Thailand and I spoke a little bit on that at the time. But nothing about Mike White or the crew or allegedly executives at HBO. So that's interesting and also interesting to see if that means season four will be different than season three because I felt that season three was vastly different from seasons one and two, but mostly seasons one. Do you watch the White Lotus Hannah? I do. Do you do follow what I'm saying? Do you agree disagree? I didn't think they were that different to be honest. I thought season three was different from season one. I thought it was a lot darker. The storyline. I know people were murdered in season one and two, but the way in which they were murdered in season three was a lot more intense to me than Jennifer Coolidge saying the gaze are trying to kill. And falling off the side of the boat. Yeah, I mean that is just the best ending of all time of television was Jennifer Coolidge's death, but I saw it as season three they needed to heighten it so they made it darker to make it crazier because each season of a show things have to be heightened. Yeah, and so I'm interested to see if him firing everyone allegedly and now just working with locals and seemingly to me it sounds like now he's like fully in charge whereas season three. And maybe that wasn't the exact dynamic if it will be different. I'm just I'm super curious now because I mean I thought that I thought season three was excellent. I was on the edge of my seat. I really did enjoy it, but you start to wonder as a show like that gets renewed for another season. Can they keep this up? Do you know what I'm saying? Like I kind of felt that way about tell me lies. And I think that this season are you watching tell me lies? Yeah, I think this season is just as good as the other two seasons. Oh, you don't. I'm getting so much trouble. I this season is falling flat for me. Okay, oh no, I feel like the tell me lies fandom are normal. You could you can have an opinion. God, you he did rivalry really fucked you up Hannah. I feel like we need to have an in person therapy session about this. I know we've had an offline discussion about it. We've had an online discussion about it. But now I feel like you got to just shed that shed that shed what happened with that and just let's move forward you're allowed to give your opinion. These are opinions. Nobody can tell you your opinion is right or wrong because that's your opinion. They could not agree with your opinion. But they can't say you're right or wrong. Yes, I also I know that the creator of the show came on this podcast. So I don't want to or you could. But you could say whatever you want. I love the show. I wouldn't even I wouldn't be talking about it if I didn't think that this season was just as good as the other two. And I've said this on several of the demo platforms. I think that it's a very well written and well executed show. I would like to clarify I still watch it every week and I do love the show. I just thought the first two seasons were so good and I think it's hard to keep that up. Well, that's what I was saying about that's my whole point bringing it back to my whole point was that's how I felt about white lotus too you know you always hold your breath like are they just going to ruin it this season. You know, I want to show so good and they didn't I will say white lotus has the advantage of introducing new characters. Yes, even though the show the formula is the same. It's all about the characters. So I think it's an advantage. Yeah, I agree with you. I see the advantage in that. Listen, I feel this way. I mean we're focusing on two shows, but like even paradise. Did you want to paradise an excellent show on Hulu coming back for season two. Is that where the girl went missing? No, I forgot what happened at the end. No, I don't want to ruin it for people because you really don't find out like what's going on well into the season in my opinion. You're kind of like what the hell's going on. It's kind of like a surprise. I don't want to ruin it. It's called paradise on Hulu. It's with James James Marsden and Sterling K Brown who are both excellent in it. But I'm wondering like this is a show that can easily jump the shark in season two because it's so crazy. The concept is crazy. Also another show. This is what ruined it for me this show the night agent. Did you watch the night agent? No, the first season was so good. And the second season was just like, okay, it's it's been renewed. There'll be a third season. But that was one that I was like bummer that the second season wasn't as good as the first season. Okay, we're like really we're having like a TV review podcast. I feel like right now, which isn't the point. But I think it's fun to discuss people's opinions. Hannah, it's just your opinion. It's okay. On these type of things. Okay, moving on. Let's debunk a rumor that has been circulating since yesterday, Tuesday, yesterday or Sunday night. And this is a rumor that Haley Bieber and Justin Bieber. Gone to a fight the night of the Grammys and she left their party before him their party at Bird Street. Let's be honest, finding supplements that actually feel clean and trustworthy can be overwhelming. There are so many labels, fillers and ingredients. You can't even pronounce. That's why I'm always excited to talk about Hannah. Do you know? Symbiotica baby. Symbiotica baby. Symbiotica is doing supplements differently with clean science-backed formulas designed for real absorption. I started using symbiotica because I wanted something that felt simple, but still high quality. I love their pouches, their gel pouches. They're my favorite. They actually taste really good. I've had them. They're good. Oh, yeah, like at first you're like, what is this going to taste like? Is it going to taste like a vitamin? Like, am I going to be sucking my lips? You know, like, is it going to be sour? But it's like a treat. When I take my gel pouches, I'm like, it's like dessert. It's like adult vitamin gummies. No, I think it's even better than that, to be honest with you. My favorites right now are the liposomal vitamin D3. I love that they work together to absorb steady, non-stimulate energy and overall balance, especially on busy days. I also keep magnesium L3 and 8 on hand when I want extra support for focus and calm. Go to symbiotica.com/duu to get 20% off plus free shipping.

I wasn't going to talk about this, but too many people in the DMs were asking about it and then I got this nice email. So I was like, let me just find out the deal. Demois, seeming reports that the Beabs and Haley had a fight at the Grammy's party, hence why she left by herself. Can you please confirm or shut this down? You were the only hope to cut through the bullshit. Okay, I am confirming the shutdown. Like, I am confirming through a well-placed source that Haley and Justin Bieber did not get into a fight the night of the Grammys. Nor is there any photographic or video evidence of such people are thinking this and the rumor is spreading based on a paparazzi video with a caption that says such. The video does not even show them fighting. It just shows her leaving. Now everyone was asking me, why would she leave? Why would she leave? I said, I don't know. Maybe she was fucking tired. She's a working mother. I have no idea. Like, it was late. Maybe she didn't want to stay out any any longer. Their day probably started really early, especially for her having to get ready and glam. Maybe she was like, I'm tired. I'm going home. I mean, that's totally normal. It has common sense totally left the building. I mean, I don't even know why I'm asking that question. But these two cannot make a move in public without it being overanalyzed. And to the point where blatantly stupid lies are created about them that there's no backing to. So I'm here to confirm per a well-placed source that they did not get into a fight. That's it. That's all I'm going to say about that. I know there are definitely slow news days in the celebrity news cycle. But why can't we make up like positive rumors or happy rumors? Why is it always wishing for the downfall of something? I just, I can't prescribe to that. And if you follow Demois and have for the past couple of years, I really try not to ever focus on the negative of anything because there's so much negative in the world as it is. And Demois a place to escape from that and be surrounded by positivity. So unless something concrete happens, and I'm not even talking about Haley or Justin, but unless something concrete happens that is negative. Let's keep a positive guys. Please. And it's not just about them. It's other celebrities too. In fact, I'm about to speak and talk about one of those other celebrities. And that's Taylor Swift. If you happen to have caught the Taylor Swift video, it was posted on Instagram by someone who works for another celebrity. I'm not going to out them. They already out at themselves, which was mind blowing. But if you were there in real time, you know the story. Obviously, the Taylor Swift fans alerted me of this video. And I hadn't, I didn't see the video right away. It took a while for somebody to send it to me. But I said, Oh, I don't, I don't know. At first, I was like, I don't know. I didn't hear. She was anywhere. I thought to myself, she definitely wasn't at any of the more public facing Grammy after parties. She wasn't at the Chateau. She wasn't, I don't know where the bird street, you know, so where could she have been? Well, I mean, people do have private parties that the paparazzi don't always catch. And that's what happened here. So the video was shown to me, the sub stack subscribers, the demo sub stack subscribers really broke it down for me in the live last night of why the video was in fact from Sunday night. And by the end of the live, if you want to go and listen to it, unfortunately, you have to be a paid subscriber, but you could listen in real time, like how it was worked out through the people in the live by the end, I was like, OK, yes, I believe you guys the video is definitely from Sunday night. Let's try to figure out where she is in this video. Also in the video, if you saw it, it didn't look like Taylor 2025. It looked like Taylor from a couple years ago, like it was her hair. Maybe she got like her bangs trimmed her hair looked like a different color. So that's also why I was like, maybe this is old. She had her red lip on, she had been wearing different makeup looks on her last press run. So I thought the red lip was maybe something from a couple years ago, but no, so it's Sunday night she's at this party. I had found out and it has since been confirmed by multiple sources, it was Jack Antonov's Grammy after party. So for everyone who thought, because this was also another question that I had been asked sporadically, gosh, over the past six months that I never addressed, I had a recent answer for it, because again, like so many people were asking, I wasn't sure I finally reached out to someone. I'm actually might have talked about this on a podcast episode. Anyway, about Jack and Taylor's alleged friendship breakup or thought, because she didn't work with him on life of a showgirl, that was not the case. He from the beginning knew who she'd be working with on that album. And that had no, according to my source, had no bearing on their friendship. It's just a creative decision that she made that, you know, happens all the time. I'm sure celebrities and artists don't always work with the same teams, some do and some don't. So this album she didn't want to. And I think the fact that people weren't seeing them publicly together also piled on to that rumor. But again, she was off doing her own thing. He was doing his own thing. That doesn't mean that they weren't talking or seeing each other in private as this video now proves. They were in private. It was a private party. I also received some additional intel from a couple people about the party. Sabrina Carpenter was also at the party. And to my delight, it seems like Sabrina was with tall, hot blonde guy at the party. Allegedly, Sabrina was there with this blonde mystery man. She took pictures in the photo booth. She was mingling with Margaret Qualey and Rachel, Jack, sister. There were, there were some other industry people there. But I feel like the biggest takeaway from this is that she's still with tall, hot blonde guy. I kind of knew that. But nobody had had a sighting of them in a while. And I had said this previously that I was told he doesn't live in the United States. And something that somebody at the party observed. I kind of confirmed that. I don't know. I think maybe he could be British. Did I have a set that before? I don't remember. But apparently Sabrina and tall, hot blonde guy were very touchy, feeling giggling, laughing, flirting. That's the intel from the party. I didn't get anything really on Taylor except for what we see in the video. And the people that I talked to didn't see Travis, but that doesn't mean that he wasn't there. I'm just saying that I didn't hear firsthand that he was. I know there are a couple people on Twitter who says they did hear he was there. I'm just telling you guys what I heard firsthand. That's that. I do think that that's a wrap on L.A. for them. And they're off to their next destination. Where will that be? Okay, let's quickly talk about Bella Hadid and a Don Benuelos. Hannah, how do we think Benuelos? That looks right. Sounds right. I'm sure somebody will correct me. Okay, so last week we talked about their breakup. And then since then she was spotted by someone who submitted TMZ with him the night of his arrest. He was arrested. I can't remember if this happened last week when we recorded the pod. I don't think so. I think it happened after he was arrested if you missed it for public intoxication in Texas. That was announced first. And then I guess somebody sold a video to TMZ of them dancing at a Texas bar hours before the arrest. Now again, just to refresh your memory, I had heard about the breakup January 18th. The breakup was announced. I think maybe TMZ was the first to announce it. Like eight or nine days later. She spotted with him dancing at the bar. He gets arrested. What have I heard since I heard that she allegedly found out that he was stepping out on the relationship. And that's what led to the breakup. That's what I heard. And it makes it kind of makes sense because I do feel like the breakup was kind of sudden. This person also said, like, I was like, wow, like they seemed, you know, together all the time. And they lived together in Texas. And this person said, yeah, they're like really intertwined. Like they own like million dollar horses together. And but then this person was like, girl, those cowboys in Texas, they are players. And I was like, oh, okay, I mean, I guess, you know, that makes sense. What happened since then? What happened since the bar since the public intoxication? Well, somebody sent an anonymous email that they're very much still together. This was sent this morning. Bella Hadid spotted sitting next to Adon's mother at the Taylor Sheridan's cutting winter bash on February 2nd. That was yesterday cheering on Adon, then leaving saying, I love you to his mother. So I guess they're back together per what we thought anyway after the dancing video. We'll see. We'll see what happens with these two. I didn't realize that he could be such a controversial person. But according to my Texas source, those cowboys. Okay, Hannah, it's time to do hotline. Hell yeah. Oh my god. Wait, January 22nd. When was January 22nd? Somebody just sent me a fucking message about Bella Hadid, the hooking up with the reality person I was talking about on January 22nd. Hannah, two Thursdays ago. Did I not do, did we not do the do you hotline last week? We might not have. And I missed one. Okay. What the fuck's happening? Are people fucking with me? Okay, somebody said Braxton, Barrios liked this shady comment on his newest post about Alex Earl. I knew about this. The comment is dang. The post breakup glow is real. Alex really must have been running you down. Keep it up, King. That's to Braxton. And he liked it. I don't think that that's that shady. I knew about it. People were messaging me about it when it happened. But I was like, you guys. Oh, you guys. This is a tip from a friend. This person says Joe Quinn has been running on fumes with keeping up with his four part band movie series. Seems he has regrets with the role and has had to reject future projects due to how much time these current movies are taking. He thinks his career is over because of this. Hence the lack of any public presence lately. He's overwhelmed. Joe is also supposedly trying to break away from his DJ girlfriend. But they used to not nice word, but can't he's heard from multiple friends and colleagues that the DJ girlfriend and her partner are only using him to help further their career and book shows this like it sounds like it's from a fan based on the wording. Okay. Some of these are old. Let's start with some new ones. Marcello Hernandez and Jay Haco seen at the W magazine Grammy after party. Who's Jay Haco? Han, can you look it up? I don't know who that is. Should I not should I know it? Diplo has a new girlfriend, I think she's been seen at a bunch of his shows and run clubs. She's in the background of a bunch. They follow each other. He likes our stuff and she's posted him a few times, including a photo of him kissing her cheek. I feel like Diplo probably has a new girlfriend every week. Somebody's asking about the Miley Cyrus Hannah Montana one night only concert. I believe that rumor started on Twitter. I'm not sure where it came from. If it's from a verified Twitter account or ex account that usually has reliable information, then maybe it's true. I've had a bunch of people asking about it. I have not heard. I wouldn't even know who to ask about that. I don't really get information on Miley Cyrus's music. Han Haco is a Puerto Rican singer and rapper. Okay, great. Spoiler from Inside Source, a new couple, including Brianna Chicken Fry. Well, who's the other half of the couple? Hey, do was wondering if you ever heard of any relationship/friendship between Blake Lively and Caitlin Olsen. I know their husbands are partners and rectum and seem close, but I can't remember seeing a photo of the wives together at any point carries if there's any tear drama. Okay, I don't know, but the reason I'm reading this because if there is a photo of them that exists, I feel like my audience would know. Probably beating a dead horse, but at this point, I feel like we need a whole special episode to recap this Blake Lively Justin Baldoni mess. My head is spinning with all this new information coming out and I need someone to help recap and put the red string on the bulletin board. Well, I have not read every single word and page that has been released and included in the unsealed texts and emails. So I don't know if I'm the best person to do that. There are creators who are dedicated to just reporting on this. I've touched upon it. I've talked about this last week, I think. I picked out different parts of the documents and I posted about them and I haven't actually, I got a letter about trying to download the court documents. Let me see if I can find it. Oh, it's from Pacer. I tried to download the court documents and I couldn't. Thank you for your interest in the public access to court electronic records. Oh, enter your auth and oh, I didn't have this token. Can you guys tell me if this, I got this letter in the mail on the 21st of January and they gave me an authentication token to be able to download the files. Because I said on last week's episode of the week before I couldn't download all the files I tried to. And the reason I was just posting certain pieces is because those are ones that I was seeing online that I thought the audience would find interesting. But I would love to be able to download all of them myself. All registered agencies or individuals are charged $0.10 per page. Okay, that's not bad because people were like, you're going to have to pay. I guess $0.10 per page. If there's like hundreds of pages, Hannah, I'm just curious, like let's say there's 300 pages. $0.30. Oh, that's, oh my god, you're quick with math. I'm so bad at math. Okay, so again, I don't think I'm the right person because there are creators who are dedicated to reading through everything and really breaking it down. I will say that some creators definitely report from one side more than the other. So I could definitely suggest some creators, but I want to also suggest unfortunately I only know creators that like support pro baldoni. I haven't really seen that many creators or know any off the top of my head. The ones I know off the top of my head has been very pro baldoni. But if you want a more unbiased recount, I would feel more comfortable recommending both the pro baldoni and pro lively. I just don't know any pro lively ones off the top of my head. So if anybody does, can you let me know? And then I'll be happy to recommend both just to keep it fair. I mean, because there's two people right now that I watch that I know, but their reporting is very much pro baldoni. Okay, let's go to the voicemails.

So my question is I just watched the city sweetie thing of her getting throwing her lingerie on the Hollywood sign. And it said that she's going to get arrested for this or I don't know maybe find. But I watched the video and it looks it looks fake to me. So I was just wondering is that true? Is she really going to get in trouble for that? And also why is the Hollywood sign not allowed to get trust? And also do you know anything about Kendall Jenner and Joe Barrow? Thanks, bye. So that Kendall Jenner Joe Barrow post is fake. It was photoshopped. So that's not real. There's nothing going on between Kendall and Joe. I think people are now more focused on the fact. And this was after Kendall and Devin Booker's little exchange when her fanatics Super Bowl commercial came out. And then he started following her again, but people are saying are they back together like what's going on with Devin and Kendall. I've said this and I'll say it again. They've always been on off or not always, but for the past year, two years or maybe a year ago, two years ago, we're very much on off. It was because we didn't see paparazzi pictures of them or just because we didn't see pictures that were submitted to Demois of them together. It doesn't mean that they weren't secretly seeing each other. So that's about Kendall. As far as the Hollywood sign, I did have a couple of people message me and say it did look like it was fake and it was staged. I don't know. Did you watch the video, Hannah? I saw a part of it. It's so hard to tell because it's moving very fast, right? I think it was staged. Right. Is the Hollywood sign a historical landmark? I would assume. I believe so. Let me check. Okay. While you check that, I'll say that that's my answer for why you can't deface the Hollywood sign. Also, I would assume that there are safety precautions about being in that area of the Hollywood Hills and where the sign is situated and just like insurance liability about having people around the sign. That's my guess. It's a historical monument. So yes, it is. That's probably why you can't deface it. I feel like that would be more because, like I said, where it's situated because think about in DC, there's historical monuments everywhere and you can go up pretty close to them. So I think it's probably just like a safety issue regarding where the sign is. I don't know the answer to if it was fake or not. I mean, it was obviously promo for her brand, which I just watched a video of somebody critiquing it. And I didn't know how to pronounce the name of her brand, but it's siren. S-Y-R-N. When I was looking at the word, I don't know what I was saying it as in my head, but it wasn't siren. So it's called siren. It's sold out. I was curious about what it looked like. I went on the website. I think she's doing it and drops. It's sold out a lot. I would say like 95% of the pieces, maybe there were one or two things that was not sold out. I don't know what her buy was. I don't know how many units she had in order for it to sell out, but it sold out. So that's that. Okay, here we go. Hello, hello, Duma. My name is Caroline. I hope I give my I give consent to my question being used in your podcast. First of all, I love your content and I just had a question regarding what happened between a doesn't book or candle generate that Instagram thing on Michael ribbon comment section. And I want to like if you have any information on that, I think maybe there, there's sort of floating. I don't know if that was true or maybe marketing, but I just want to know if you have any information on that. Thank you. Bye. Hi, thank you for question. I didn't even know this question was coming up and I kind of already answered it. I do think that the back and forth between them was part of the marketing. I don't know if it was planned or not. I mean, Devin Booker is tight with Mike Rubin who owns fanatics. So, you know, maybe they planned it ahead of time. Maybe it was spontaneous, but obviously it was to promote her spot, which was a great spot if you happen to catch it. And then again, what I said is like I think that they do once in a while like secretly link up. Don't forget last time I heard and it was from a very well place source that she was completely single. But people call themselves single, but you know, still hook up with people have we talked about this Hannah because I say this a lot and sometimes I feel crazy saying it, but don't you think that's a thing like I've been hooking up with somebody on and off for five or four years and I call myself single. Yeah, I would say most guys I hook up with would call themselves single. Yeah, so I think people get really confused. But to me, somebody can refer to themselves as single, but still be hooking up with somebody. I do my name is Elizabeth and I give consent for you to play this on your podcast first time pilot a long time listener and just wanted to let you know that I finished the latest episode and you talked about the Baha'i Faith. It's actually not a new religion and it's been around for quite some time. I didn't send you a message about this, but Rainn Wilson, who plays the white shirt on the office, is also a prominent person of Baha'i Faith. And it's kind of all over. So I'm shocked that it's just now being discussed and becoming a thing and being discussed as a cult because there's a lot of really beautiful literature around as well. So just wanted to add my two things on that and yeah, I give you the details on that. Thanks. Hi, thank you so much. Yes, we did speak over DM and I think I screen shot at your DM because that's how I keep my very intricate files through screenshot and let me search because you did tell me it was an old religion. I'm so sorry. Can't find your message. Yes, we did communicate through DM and I should have added when I talked about it at the top of the episode that it is a very old religion. It's not new. Thank you for calling in because that would have slipped through the cracks. Hey, dude. This is Kayla from Maine and I give consent for you to use my voice on the podcast. First, I just wanted to let you know I was in a really bad car accident when I was 17, so like five years ago now and I pretty bad BGFC from it. And I listened to your podcast when I drive and I find that it really helps kind of stop those kind of attacks that I have while driving. So that's really cool. Another podcast has never really done that for me. So thank you. Please don't stop doing your podcast. But anyways, I was just wondering if you had any information on I know it's kind of like an old situation, but like Ronnie Radke and Soraya and I know there's somebody else involved. I think it's like Nikki Fix's wife or girlfriend. I don't really know the situation that well, but I never really hear anything about like rock music or metal music. So I don't know. I figured maybe you might know something about them and that's the music that I kind of listened to. So yeah, thank you. Bye. Hi, Kayla. Thank you so much for your question. First of all, I'm really sorry to hear about your accident. Secondly, if you're listening to this while you're driving, just concentrate on the sound of my voice. I never thought I would say that to anyone since so many people give me shit about the way my voice sounds on the podcast. Okay, you unlocked a memory because I swear and if there are any OGs listening, please tell me that I'm not hallucinating. I posted, I think I posted about what you're talking about. If you didn't really give context, okay, but I the Nikki sticks things sounds really familiar like something with his wife. And I just need like a minute and we're coming down to the end of the episode, but I just need a minute to look through my DMs to see if. What I have on Nikki or what I'm sorry what I've posted in the past on Nikki and I'm talking like 2020 2021 because back in those days like. Anything goes like it wasn't just the A listers or the B listers or you know, sometimes I think you you guys think I talk about really niche celebrities, it was like whoever anyone was interested in. I would post about because we were all in this together right it was like COVID locked down like we were all trying to distract each other so Nikki sticks funny enough if I'm remembering correctly. Was posted about. So if anyone's listening, I'm going to dig through the DMs after I wrap the podcast to see if I have anything for you for next week, but if anyone's listening and remembers this. Let me know. Thank you so much for your message. I love talking about people that we don't usually talk about. Hi, dude. This is Lauren. I give consent to play my question on your podcast. This question is about Manuel Garcia Rolfo. If you got his name, he's the Lincoln lawyer. I know that you had talked about him dating one of. What's the name of the McGraw child that he was dating, but now he's doing craft for the upcoming season of his show and he is wearing a wedding ring. I was wondering if you had an update on him with Faith Hill, Kim McGraw's kid that he was dating, are they now married, if you're married to entirely someone else, I would just love to know. Thank you. Oh, my God. Okay, Hannah, I know you don't watch the Lincoln lawyer. No. Okay, so I feel like only certain people will get the lore of the Lincoln lawyer because I've talked about it since it aired on Netflix. There are now in season three. This is speaking of shows that I'm like nervous for to come back and hope there is good as the last two seasons. Lincoln lawyer season three is another one you could add to the list. So because of that show, the audience who watches that show as well as many of the Demo audience members fell in love with Manuel. Okay, including me, like he I developed this huge crush on him. It only intensified when the Demo audience in the Q&A were asking about him and people who had worked with him in the past wrote in what an exceptionally nice human being he was. So that just made everyone who's involved in all of this, like, you know, when I say involved in all this, I mean like following things that I posted about him or said about him, love him even more. Then we found out I think the reddit sleuths actually found this out and someone came to me and was like, do he's dating Audrey McGraw, who is Faith Hill and Tim McGraw's daughter. There are even paparazzi pictures of them from 2024, which I posted and I was like, oh, bummer, you know, your celebrity crush. You're just like, oh, bummer. But you didn't really hear much about him until last week. This is in the newsletter. I'm laughing. Last week, somebody sent me a anonymous email and I was like, okay, this is where I guess I mean, if people say like, do you have a parasocial relationship with anyone? I guess maybe it's him because when I got this email, I was like, yes, he's single. So somebody sent me this email. He was, I'm just laughing because I'm such a fucking dork. Somebody sent me this email and I put it in the newsletter. Well, first I went to my subs in the chat and I was like, you guys, because I feel like they all know that I like love him. It says, will the Lincoln lawyer keep to his attorney client privilege during upcoming season premiere promo interviews about why his long time much younger love has been sad posting and why they've removed tags and no longer follow each other on Instagram. So of course, I got this message and I was like, like I just said, I guess I have a parasocial relationship with him as the Lincoln lawyer because I also told the subs that I watched Jurassic, the new Jurassic Park. That he was in with Scarlett Johansson and Jonathan Bailey and I wasn't like as attracted to him and that I guess maybe it's just like the lawyer. That also makes them like hot in the Lincoln lawyer. I went to them and I was like, you guys, and then I put it in the newsletter. Now you're saying he's wearing a ring. I didn't check if she removed any of the tags or she was posting sad songs. I just took this and ran with it. But now you're debunking this whole theory. And I feel like people that follow this account know him or work with him or work on the show and we'll find out like did they break up or are they married. This is kind of niche, but this is the stuff that I'm personally interested in. So to answer your question, I was under the impression that they broke up, but I loved that you asked this question. Lauren, like are you part of the niche like Demo club who loves Lincoln lawyer so much you have to let me know. I mean, this goes back to the first season. So I think like 2021. Hi, my name is Jess Lane and I give consent for you to say my question podcast, but I was wondering if you knew anything about the death of violence. After like all the backlash, she's been getting like for her role as Zoe in deep cuts with your Turkey and Kelly or key. She's been really quiet and I just want to know like if she's seen it because she's been active on Instagram and she hasn't been acknowledged or anything. So I want to know if we could talk about that. Okay, you must have sent this in before she withdrew from the movie because if you guys missed it, she withdrew from the movie because of the backlash. I didn't know about any of the backlash. I feel like it was quick like I feel like or maybe not you guys could tell me from wrong. It just didn't like come across my proverbial desk. I feel like she was cast people were pissed about it and then she withdrew like all within like a week or two week period. Tell me if I'm wrong, but she she withdrew. So yeah, she saw it. Again, this goes back. I mean, of course, you know, something like that. I feel like would be alerted to the producers and the studio and her right away. If people were upset about the casting, but it also goes back to the fact that I do think that celebrities are on social media a lot more than any of them give on. And this goes to your this is to your question, you know, did she see it? Yeah, I 150% think that she saw it. Hi, do my name is Lucy and I give consent for you to use my name or my voicemail on your podcast if you choose to answer it. So my question is was there ever a falling out with Selena Gomez and Brooklyn and Nikola Pell Beckham? I policy in a pretty closely online and I remember for like a full year she was insanely close to them. Like right before she started publicly dating Betty, I feel like it was borderline. It was weird like gave off throttle vibes because she would go on vacation with Brooklyn and Nikola. I love Selena. I'm not trying to say there was just like trains and she would post all the time that she was leaving the house and they would make her breakfast in the morning. I don't know. I just was and then it just seemed like I don't know where they stopped posting pictures. The three of them like stopped going through each other's red carpet events. And I don't remember seeing anything about Selena at their wedding. So I was just curious if they had a falling out or what happened with that intensely close friendship of 2024. Yeah, thanks. Hope you answered my question. Hi, thank you so much for your question. So there's two parts to this that I've heard the first part is that Selena allegedly dated Nikola's brother. Fans had always speculated that that they were dating. I forget the I forget which brother because she has a couple. Sorry, I don't have all the brother's names in front of me, but it was recently confirmed to me when all of the Victoria Brooklyn Nicholas stuff came out in a DM that somebody was sending to me about this situation that she did in fact date the brother. So I don't know if they like had about it split or something happened, but that's one part to it. And then allegedly there was an incident that led to Nikola cutting off their friendship. Now, just last week, I was told that Nikola either deleted or untagged or both any pictures of Selena that she had on her Instagram account. Again, I didn't go back and check that information. I don't know what her account looked like before as far as posting pictures with Selena, but that's what some fans told me. Yeah, that's what I heard. I heard those two things. I heard you dated the brother and then I heard an incident did happen and Nikola was like that, that's it. Like we're not friends anymore. I like Selena as well. This is nothing against Selena, just answering your question. That's what I heard. Okay, thank you guys so much for listening. If you enjoyed this episode, can you please rate and review this podcast. We'd really appreciate it. Thank you. We'll see you next week. Bye. (upbeat music)
