- "Stranger Things" creators
defend the show after Millie Bobby Brown's criticism.
Nicki Minaj disses Kanye West during a festival appearance.
All that and so much more in today's show.
What is up, you guys?
I'm your girl, Carly Henderson.
And the "Stranger Things" creators are defending themselves
after Millie Bobby Brown called them sensitive Sallys
for keeping so many characters alive.
It all went down after Millie and her co-star, Noah Schnapp,
complained to "The Wrap"
that red carpets just keep getting harder and harder to do,
with so many living humans on their show.
- They need to kill off some people. It's so big.
- I know. It's way too big.
Last night, we couldn't even take one group picture
because there was like 50 of us.
I was like, "You need to start killing people off."
- After Noah joked
that they should have one giant massacre scene,
Millie doubled down.
- Also, the Duffer brothers are two sensitive Sallys,
that don't wanna kill
anyone off. - Yeah, they don't wanna kill.
- We need to be "Game of Thrones."
We need to have the mindset of "Game of Thrones."
- And just kill like a main, main character.
- I know, kill me off.
- Twist the- - They tried killing-
- whole thing, Yeah. - David off.
They brought him back.
- Oh, yeah. (laughs)
- Ridiculous. - That's true.
- Still trying to decide whether or not she was joking,
but the girl has got ideas.
- I make my own rules.
- Clearly, we need to get Millie in the writer's room
for season five.
The Duffer brothers responded
on the "Happy Sad Confused Podcast,"
and the "Stranger Things" creators called Millie, hilarious.
Matt Duffer said, "Believe us.
We've explored all options in the writing room.
We aren't "Game of Thrones."
This is Hawkins, it's not Westeros."
- And there is only one thing we say to death.
Not today.
- He did say that more deaths could be on the table
as they're headed toward the end of the show,
then insisted, "There are lives behind it,
and it's nothing to do with my sensitivity."
So, there you go Millie.
The next season of "Stranger Things,"
which will be dropping in 2024, will be the last,
so there's still time to take Millie's advice to heart.
You know, there are a lot of actors
who have executive producer roles
and can make those kind of calls,
and Millie's been on the show since she was 12.
So of course she cares what happens.
But, right now she isn't a producer on the show,
so she kinda has to just go with what the writers
and directors decide for her character.
There is one final season though,
but we are going to have to wait two more years
to see if Millie's gonna get her wish.
It definitely seems like Nicki Minaj
is not feeling Ye, AKA Kanye West, these days.
Nicki was performing in new Orleans
at the "ESSENCE Festival of Culture,"
and she told her DJ to cut her song, "Monster,"
which she, Jay-Z, and Ye collabed on back in 2010.
- Wait up, hold on.
Hold on, hold on.
I lost it up.
I lost it up, they're real (beep) clowns.
- I don't know why, but every time
Nikki calls someone a clown, (beep) here for it.
Now, no word on what exactly triggered
this seemingly pointed insult.
But, it could have been a couple things.
The day that Nikki said she didn't F with clowns
was also the day Cardi B dropped her collab with Ye.
And we all know Nikki and Cardi
haven't always seen eye to eye.
- Put your music out,
and when I see your name on Billboard
that's when I'll respond to you.
Other than that, goodbye.
- It could also be that there's some lingering drama
after Nikki and Ye worked on the song, "New Body" together,
which they were supposed to drop on
Ye's canceled album, "Yandhi."
He really loves fusing his name
with world icons doesn't he?
Yeezus, Yandhi.
But after this recent dis it looks like
we may never get the full drop of New Body.
- Eh, try again. - So the hit that got away.
Yeah, so Nikki also went on to say that if "New Body"
which Nikki called the biggest hit record
that never came out,
would've dropped in a different one of Ye's eras,
it would've seen the light of day.
And I gotta say, nobody throws shade like Nicki Minaj.
She's just so funny about it.
Calling people bozos and clowns.
Like smiling while she does it.
Need to use that more.
I don't always agree with Nikki,
but I am always entertained by her.
All right, guys, let's break down some other major stories
and determine if they are fact or cap.
Starting with, is Taylor swift appearing in a new film?
That's a fact.
The new trailer for the film, "Amsterdam",
was released this week with a star-studded cast,
including, Christian Bale, Margot Robbie, Anya Taylor Joy,
Rami Malek, and so many more.
Including a quick look at Dr. Taylor Alison Swift,
with her signature red lip,
dressed in typical 1930s fashion.
So, we don't know that much about her character yet.
But it attendees at CinemaCon in April,
saw more from Taylor's character who can be seen briefly
at the beginning of the newly released trailer,
standing alongside Christian Bale,
crying and mourning her father.
I have to say, I am so excited to see Taylor back
on the big screen in what looks to be a fantastic film.
Did Selena Gomez just drop a teaser of her new song?
That is unfortunately cap.
But Sel did post on TikTok this week to show this video
of her back in the studio, she captioned it, simply new.
This comes on the heels of her telling beauty TikTokker,
Mikayla Nogueira, at her LA Rare Beauty event,
that new music is indeed coming this year.
- Well maybe (Carly chuckles)
and maybe some music. - Oh, no way. (laughs)
I think we can all definitely use a new era
of Selena music in our lives.
Did Rihanna de-throne Kim Kardashian
as America's youngest self-made billionaire?
That's fact!
It looks like Rihri takes her work, work, work,
work, work, very seriously,
as Forbes recently released its 2022 list
of America's richest self-made women.
And our girl earned a top spot on the list.
Rihanna whose net worth is 1.4 billion,
also became America's youngest self-made billionaire at 34,
taking the title from 41 year old Kim Kardashian
who has a net worth of $1.8 billion.
(indistinct chatter)
- They didn't kill you?
- Did Kim Kardashian get trolled for her runway walk?
That is fact.
Kim, Nicole Kidman and Naomi Campbell
all surprised show goers,
when they walked Balenciaga's Fall 2022 couture show.
But it was Kim's walk down the runway
that caught the internet's attention.
People commented how awkward it looked,
while others made it clear that Kim was not giving.
Honestly, guys, this isn't a career she's passionate about,
so let's not even compare her to Kylie.
- And if you had a (beep) business
that you were passionate about,
then you would know what it takes to run a (beep) business,
but you don't.
- Our besties, Ashley, Tisdale, and Vanessa Hutchins
on the outs?
That's cap.
In a new tip received by gossip account, Deuxmoi,
it mentions that they're quote,
friends, just not what they used to be.
Fans started to speculate way back in January
when Ashley posted these photos
of Vanessa's ex, Austin Butler, meeting her daughter Jupiter
for the first time.
But Ash cleared that up real quick saying
that Austin has been one of her best friends
for over 10 years.
All right, thanks so much for watching you guys.
I'll catch you next time, bye.
