Hey guys, welcome to Tea Time on the Ringer Podcast Network. I'm Liz Kelly. I'm Kate Hallowall. And I'm Amelia Wademeyer. This is a bi-weekly pop culture podcast where we're just going to talk about the celebrities that we love, the celebrities that we do not love, and all the weird things that they've been up to in the past two weeks. And every time the bell rings in this podcast, we absolutely have to switch to the next topic, no matter how bad we want to keep talking about it. Yeah, and today we are going to talk about everything from Taylor Swift's weird New Year's Eve party. Yeah, to the Kardashian surrogate and Idris Elba's DJing career. Let's spill the tea. Okay, our first category is appropriate because tons of celebrities kicked off the new year.

The biggest two events that happened were Taylor Swift's New Year's Eve party and Drake's New Year's Eve party. What a spectrum that is. I know. One was a thousand times weirder than the other. Taylor Swift continues to confound me. I have absolutely no idea what she's doing at any given time. The theme of her party this year was childhood heroes. Right.

Which first, what? Yeah, and it seemed like everyone ignored it. So, like, why do a theme that bad if everyone's going to ignore it? Who did they have, like, Gwen Stefani? Someone's hero was Gwen Stefani, which I'm like, if you want to wear a bikini top. Like, just wear a bikini towel. And Avril Levine? Mm-hmm.

I kind of like that one. The ones that I rolled my eyes out were Gigi doing Mary Poppins, which like, come on. No one's childhood heroes, Mary Poppins. And then Blake lively doing Dorothy. Dorothy. No one watches Wiz of Oz and is like, I want to be Dorothy when I grow up. Also, why did Taylor Swift pick that theme? Like, that's a good Halloween theme.

It's a good birthday thing. But New Year's Eve. Right. And to be clear, Taylor Swift was Ariel from The Little Mermaid. She was. Like, do like movie characters. And you've already got, like, almost everyone. Completely.

But I feel like that's such her brand to be like, oh, weird, quirky, cute. Inspiring heroes. Yeah. Also, Taylor Swift is one of the highest paid artists of our lifetime. Right. Her wig was so bad. Oh, my God. That was like a $5

wig from Party City It was on top of her head It sat like three inches above her dress I didn't recognize her first It's like it's on top It's really supposed to like come down It was like hovering Yeah

Yeah And it was like it was made of trash bags Yeah It was horrible Also there was one girl Dresses Frida Kahlo Which I was like you nailed it That's like that one of the Apatouse

Was it? I think it was the older one Yeah there was there I think Mod was there yeah I was shocked and appalled that Judd and Leslie Abatow let Iris, their 16-year-old daughter attend this party. I spent the last two weeks, or the last whatever 10 days, mad about it. Turns out Iris is dating Taylor Swift's boyfriend, Joe Owens, younger brother, Patrick.

And I found this on a Tumblr site from Malaysia. So this is unconfirmed. Sure, sure. A primary source. It makes the most amount of sense while she was there. Is now the time to talk about how much we hate Taylor's was boyfriend, or is that another time? You hate Taylor's his boyfriend? He's the worst.

He's pretty bland. Why? He's so bland. He's so boring. He's played like four different kinds of Nazis in his movie. Like that's all I play is like handsome, maybe Nazi. Oh. Or confirmed Nazi.

Well, she has like weird taste in men anyway. Her last good boyfriend was John Mayer. Yeah, she has bad taste. Yeah. Also, this party looked, I mean, for all intents' purpose, is pretty lame. Yeah. And that's why I think if I was Leslie Mann or Judd Apatatatatel, I'd be like, yeah, you can go. Right.

That's exactly. That's what I was happening, too, of all this. Celebrity parties to send your daughters to, Taylor, so it's probably the same one. You know the party, like, actually ended at, like, 10.30. Right. The worst attendee, I think, in Amelia's eyes, correct me if I'm wrong, is Ryan Reynolds. Oh, no, you're right. I'm shocked you haven't brought that up yet.

I was trying to, you know, a better me in 2019. It's already over. Yeah, he was just, like, drinking from his own personal gin brand bottles. It's so annoying. The whole, and all the pictures. Like, he wasn't, his personal hero is gin, apparently. Taylor and Ryan were both, like, cocking the gin. Like, come on.

And I was like, this is a bad photo. Yeah. Span con? The positioning is bad. You're bigger than this. Oh, God. It was tough. The other New Year's Eve celebration we have to talk about before our four minutes is up is

is Drake's New Year's Eve celebration. Yes. This is a completely different vibe. The only thing really of note that happened is that Kylie and Kendall went despite Kanye, Kim, and Drake all feuding around the same time. It's wild. Is it wild? I mean, I would have expected Kendall and Kylie to be like, I don't care about that.

That's true. That's true. That's insane. Yes. It's like so their speed. That feels right, actually. Yeah. Right?

Yeah. Also, I was like looking at pictures. I was trying to figure it felt like nothing happened there either or like it was much better protected. Right. Right. It looked like a normal New Year's Eve celebration. No, and dress up as Mary Poppins? No, shockingly.

Although I do want to say a person that I was surprised to see there was Edress Elba, who we'll talk about later. He is doing a lot of things recently that has shocked me, one of which is a Tendrix's New Year's Day party. Yeah, he's old. He is old. Just for the record. Okay. We're checking in with more people and actually talking about this same family. I feel like the general public is happy.

We have only a set amount of time, especially a lot of our ringer co-workers. We have several minutes to talk about the Kardashian family. There's a lot going on. Well, they're always in the zeitgeist. It's true. No rest for the Kardashians. Not ever, not in 2019. Yeah, not now because they're having another kid.

Yes, Amelia, explain. So Kim Kanye, that three kids, North, Saint, and Chicago. And now they are pregnant. Their surrogate, I'm sorry, their surrogate is pregnant with a new kid. Yes, it's a new surrogate. A new surrogate. Yeah. Okay, that was my question.

Because their old surrogate just had another baby on Christmas Eve. Her baby or was she a surrogate? Her own baby. Yeah. Wow. Tough back to follow. I know. This one's going to be a boy.

They're going to have two girls, two boys. Oh, my God. They create the most beautiful children I've ever seen. They are. Yeah. If they want to have 10 children, I'm fine with that. Go for it. I said that I would love to learn more about these surrogates.

Like, I feel like in the future there's going to, like, one of them's going to write a book. And then it's going to be made into, like, this movie about. I would watch that. How long does their NDA last, you think? Their lifetime? I mean, knowing Chris Jenner probably last time. I'm shocked that they're not locked down. I need to know more.

I'm so curious about the Kardashian surrogate experience. Oh, so they haven't publicly admitted anything. This is like e-news, which obviously has the whatever. The scoop, right. You know, yeah, Chris Jenner's just feeding them. Exactly. Okay, next big thing that happened, the Kardashian Christmas party, this kind of went off without, like, hit. Only thing that I do really want to talk about is Sophia Richie was at this Christmas Eve party.

She has been traveling with Scott and Courtney and their children throughout this entire holiday season. They're taking beach picks. Yes. With Scott and Courtney and Sophia in the picture. It's like this weird family vacation time. What do you think it actually goes down? Is this a good idea or bad idea? Kate?

You know, I'm just being educated on all this. I wish you cared more about the crash. I care about how much you care. I support you on this. I think it's weird for the children. Oh, totally. I'm sure they're, I mean, Mason is like old now. He is a self-aware human being.

Mason's probably, I mean, Sophia is probably closer to Mason's age than she has Scots. Also, she looks like a child of Scott and Courtney. So on that family vacation, they all look. one, as part of one family. As a 20-year-old girl, no matter how much you love your boyfriend, would you want to spend it with his ex-girlfriend of like a decade and a half? And they're three small children? Absolutely not.

Right. Well, that actually won't be, it's not a problem for her. Probably doesn't factor in. But still. Right. Yeah, that's a nightmare scenario no matter who you are. No matter the situation. I'm sorry.

Yeah. Also, she's looking more and more like Cort- they're morphing into the same woman because Courtney's aging backwards and Sophia is now looking like closer to 30. every day that passes. Maybe there's a thruple. Ooh. Ew. I don't want to think about that, so we're going to move on.

Okay, the last thing that we have to check in with the Kardashian family is that poor Chloe Kardashian. There's this video that went around the internet. She tries twerking for Tristan. Is it at the Christmas Eve party? I think. Was it? I think.

Probably. Anyway, tries twerking, like, on top of Tristan Thompson and her boyfriend partner. Right. He does not give a damn about what she's doing. He's literally holding a completely normal conversation. It's so sad. It's so sad. That's a big butt.

Like, you're trying to notice that. Like actively ignoring. Yeah. I know. This is not good. I feel terrible for her. I feel bad for her, too. I wish her the best.

She's injured a lot. I know. And not just with Tristan, but the whole Lamar thing. I know. It's just sad. This was just like the icing on top of cake. Like that just like Tristan Thompson doesn't give a shit. She's going to have a better year.

It's going to be okay. Okay. Okay. We're completely switching gears. and Tea Time is providing some streaming recommendations. There's two big ones that we have to hit. One I like more than the other. But Kate, we can start with you.

So we're not switching gears that much because we're back to Taylor Swift. True. My 2019 resolution is that this is the year I'm going to let myself love Taylor Swift. Why? Liz is rolling her eyes, which I always felt like that too. I was like Taylor Swift is bad and I don't like her. She's got some catchy songs. Guys, she's good now.

Why? That's how I feel. She's always had bangers. She really has. She legitimately asked. Her songs are so good. She has a thousand of them. So I watched her Netflix special.

That's our streaming rack. It's her reputation tours on Netflix. I was going to watch it for all too well, which is objectively the best Taylor Swift song. Even if you're not a Taylor Swift song. It's great. Maybe not objectively. Subjectively, the best Taylor Swift song. And it's like an hour in.

And I was like, I was just waiting for it. Come on. And it was great. I enjoyed myself the whole time. The girl can put on a show. She can. And I accidentally watched. this. I saw this on the notes. You accidentally watched it. I was like, I could watch a documentary

about Taylor Slips' Life. Like, 45 minutes in, I was like, this is pretty heavy, like, concert footage. Like, that's kind of weird. This was last night. And then I looked at the description, the recommendation of yours is literally you just watch her concert, the reputation. Do you not like concert tour videos? No. I love that. I agree with you. I don't like them either. I mean, it was fun. I mean, she's not a great dancer. backup dancers are great. They can edit around her bad dancing, so it's okay. Yeah. For the most part.

Sure. Also, I liked a lot of her songs that specifically came from that album, and I didn't realize it because it's really good revenge music. What's your favorite song off of the reputation album? See, she doesn't know Taylor's such a lot of to know. And I actually don't like the reputation songs, but I like all her other ones. I like Sheffling that album and just running on the treadmill pretending of like a ton of enemies and being like, yes, yes, I love it, revenge.

Okay, so that's your own. Yours. Yeah. Okay. Taylor Swift is good. 2019. That's how I feel. All right.

Yikes. Okay. The next recommendation that we have is dumpling, which came out a bit ago. It's a little bit old. But tune in, if for no other reason than to hear Jennifer Aniston attempt a southern accent. An attempt is like a really strong quotes. I talicize whatever you want to say. I don't really know how to describe it besides it.

It sounds like she's choking. It's tough. It's extremely tough. Yeah. I mean, you know, I mean, the film itself, I think putting her performance aside, I thought she was like a nice mom or whatever. And Dumblin itself is like a cute movie. It's delightful. Yeah.

She's great. She's great. And I want her to be a star. You know, it's about like a bigger girl whose mom is Jennifer Aniston who's like a beauty queen and an older retired beauty queen or whatever. And this girl who's like, I'm going to show my mom and I'm going to compete in a beauty pageant. And that's what she does. And yeah, it's just like it's not. Netflix is carving out, like, a strong territory for, like, young women rom-coms that aren't pretty little white girls.

I'm just like, yeah. Let's do it. I love it. I support it. It's like, especially they're so uplifting, and they always have a cute boy. I'm just going to say. Yeah. Yeah.

And it's just great. They're ushering in a very confusing time in my life, which is that I'm attracted to, like, 21, 22-year-old men. Who are playing high schoolers? Yes, exactly. It's very confusing time for me. Same. Same. The person who plays Bo, the love interest in this movie, is Luke Ben Ward. He's been hanging out a lot with The To All The Boys I Love Before Cast Noah Centenaio, who, you know, who we all love. And then Israel Broussard, the other male in that movie. Yeah. And I kind of like the idea that they all get together. And they're like, this is wild. It's like a Netflix grooming, teen heartthrob internet boyfriend thing going. Oh, my God. I'm really into it. Yeah. Yeah, I love it.

Okay. Next category. This is huge. And I wish you had more time to talk about it. about it, but this is good to confine us. We'll just have to hit on how we really feel. T-Times biggest relationship news. Ooh, okay. Miley and Liam got married. They did. I'm shocked that I didn't call, fly you back from Indiana. Like, call us all into this podcast studio over the break. I had no one to talk to you about this. This is a monumental experience for me reading about this.

It was big. They looked great. They looked amazing. Great. Also, side note, we predicted this for 2019. This is the one prediction that kind of came true. Right. But they did it five days too early.

They got married too early. Still count. Just count. Just count. Absolutely. It was on the publishing date. Still counts. Yeah, exactly.

They looked amazing. It was like very low key, but also like really cool and hip. That's perfect, though. Yes. You don't need a big wedding. You know, they've been together for a while. They look good. Yeah.

I'm actually shocked at how traditional a lot of the aspects were. She was in a white gown. They had like a cake. The only thing that I was really laughing. about is that Noah Cyrus was in a beanie. Of course. I guess this is a family-hung wedding. Come on.

Yeah. The other Hemsworth Bros were in like Hawaiian shirts, though. That's cute. Right. That's cute. Yeah, that's true. That's a different from a beanie. Noah Cyrus is like an entirely different beast, but I am so happy.

She is, right? She's got to wear it. I swear though, I said this, that fire brought those two to this marriage. That's true. I swear to God, this was like the catalyst. Wow. You swayed me. You really, like, within a matter of seconds.

I was like, okay, sure, yeah. Do you think, so they've been together 10 years, right? Are you serious? Did they plan it? Were they like, we've been together 10 years? Like, let's get married. Liam Hemsworth just needed her to get over her dead pets, like, shaved head face. And then it was like, if I can wait this out until she has hair past her chin.

Let's do it. She was quite weird. She always has when she's been eccentric. I think now she's calmed down a lot. And then now he's, you know, she's mature. Well, especially with. the dress she picked. Like, it was a Vivian Westwood, I think. It was

it was still expensive, but it wasn't like, you know, extravagant. Like custom. Right. Yeah. And it was great. It was white. It was floor length. She looked like very old Hollywood. Yeah. She looked amazing. It was great. Okay. I'm so happy for them. Okay. Next couple. This we also talked about the other podcast. This

was wrong. You thought Gigi and Zane were going to get married. I did. In fact, they broke up. They did. But how many times did they broken up? Honestly. Like just once before. They're going to get back together. But they did. It's break up. And so that prediction was wrong. It's fine. It's okay. Do you have thoughts on that breakup? I would like, I would like them to move on to other people.

Who cares? Amelia, I'm literally saying my thoughts. I would like them to move on to other people. That's how I feel. Who do they move on to? They're too beautiful for each other. They just like sit there and look at each other and they're like, we're really hot, but like don't talk about anything else. And so I think they need to move on to more interesting people for each other. Okay. Okay. What do you like them better than Bella Hadid in the weekend?

I like them better. What? I like Gigi way better than Bella. You think Gigi is sad that Bella had eaten the weekend spent the entire holidays together and she broke up with Zane. At that same time, broke up. Yeah, probably.

Well, she went to the New Year's party, so. That's true. She was married Poppins. How sad did she have been? Wait, let's talk about that. If you just broke up with your extremely hot pop star boyfriend and your next debut where you know photos would be taken, would you dress up as Mary Poppins?

No, you dress up as a superwoman or like catwoman in a latexxie? Just the tippiest. Yeah. If you look like Gigi Hadid and you're not using that body to your advantage, what are you thinking? Especially as a comeback, like, FU photo. Right. Like feeling herself? You're not feeling yourself in like seven layers of corsets and like a hat.

Exactly. And tweed. Buttoned up. Yeah. It's fine. I was shocked that that's what you chose. Yeah, it's tough. Okay.

Next topic, this Sunday is the Golden Globes. And T times Kate Hallowell will be on Instagram, right? We will be after the show, doing some reactions. You know, it's the sloppiest award show. It's people are drinking. People don't care because it doesn't matter. Nothing they give out matters. And there's always like fun host,

the series Andy Sandberg and Sandra O, who are great. And I just feel like, do you guys have any predictions for like who's going to get messy? Who's going to make a scene? Well, if Jennifer Lawrence attends, you know? Okay, so our extremely far-fetched thought experiment is that Emma Stone is going, great friends with Jennifer Lawrence. Jennifer calls her Emily, her real name. Oh, yeah.

That's how you know. That's exactly. Yeah. So we would love for Jennifer Lawrence to make a surprise appearance. Can you imagine if that happened? Yes. Why can't you imagine? Wouldn't she always be there?

That's I thought that was a lock. No. What else is Jennifer Lawrence doing? She's not doing anything. She moved in with her boyfriend. I would love for her comeback to be like just randomly popping up to crash the golden gloves as Emerson State. Oh my God, yes. She has once again been running her mouth like very recently.

I feel like she'll show up. No way. No way, but I would love it. Take the stage. Okay, fine. We'll see what happens. I would love it. Okay, do you have any other predictions?

Very excited to see what happens with Gaga. We have the famous moment when she won for American Horror Story a couple years ago, and she walked past Leonardo DiCaprio and he turned around like, Who the fuck are you and Why Are You Here? And, like, physically cringed away from her. Right. And now she's, like, here and, like, a legit movie star. Exactly.

Which is incredible. Yeah. And I think she might do her 100 people in a room speech. Again? Yes. Just to cap it off. It's been a great tour for that. And she's just like, she's here the first time she's legitimately like, I belong here.

Not like, wise Lady Gaga here for this show that no one watched. And can't wait to see what she wears. Can't wait to hear what she says. Yes. Can't wait for Bradley Cooper to look lovingly at her more so than he's ever at Arena Shake. Uh-huh. Yeah. Extremely true.

It's going to be great. Can't wait for Arena Shake to, to, like, stare daggers at her from the audience? She's not even going to be invited. Like, you know. Seriously, though. He probably won't even like walk the carpet with her or walk it with Gaga. No, she will be like in, if she's even at all invited, she's in the back row. Are you kidding me?

No, she's not. Yes, she'll be there, but she'll be like awkwardly sitting across from Gaga at the table. And watching her boyfriend just go to go Gaga all night. Oh, God, I can't believe you said that. Okay, any other predictions about maybe Sandra O, Andy Sandberg? I love them. Do you guys love that? I think they're going to be great, yeah.

Okay, I feel like some people are like anti- Andy Sandberg, which I've never understood. He's like the one good, like, Sanderer. SNL, like funny, smart, SNL man. As you know, I have a lot of bad opinions about people in Hollywood, but I love him. Okay, he's great. Okay, good. I feel like some people were like Andy Sammer's bag, bad. No, like why.

I like him way more than I like Jimmy Fallon. Right. Yeah. Okay, thank you. And then Sandra O's fabulous. She's great. I never watched Gray. Were you guys great as people?

For the first six seasons. No. It went really off. It went really off the rails. Yeah, and it's like still going, right? I think so. It's like season 15 or something. Yes, it's going crazy.

Okay. Well, we love them. And they're going to do a great job, and I'm excited. Ooh. Okay, great. Speaking of A Star is Born, Liz Kelly has some unfortunate pop culture opinions. They're very unique to her.

And so this is a segment, my personal favorite segment, that we're going to call Liz's worst take of the week. Liz has some blazing hot takes that she doesn't like to share, but when she does, you'll be thinking about them for forever. Forever. So A Star is Born is a really big movie that everyone loves, except Liz Kelly. Tell us what you think is better than Starsport. I have never felt so alone at work.

Then when a Starsborn came out and this whole company was brainwashed for like two straight months. Oh my God. I'm here with a better solution to a Starsborn. Do you know this movie? Yes. Okay. Country Strong. Great soundtrack.

Great soundtrack. It has everything that a Starsworn has but better and also did it a decade prior. It has the drama. It has the addiction problems. It has the music. It has the romance. It has literally everything. Here's a quick question.

It has Gwyneth Paltrow. Quick question. Have you seen a star as born? Listen, Kate, that's not important. When you know and you're so sure of something, you don't really need to see anything else. You've seen country strong so you don't need to see a star is born. Yeah, exactly.

Because you know it won't be as good. Sure. Right. And also, can I say I've not seen it, but I know for a fact that Tim McGraw, who's like the Bradley Cooper equivalent in this movie, his face moves more than Bradley Cooper's, at this point.

Oh my God. And he's not a bad actor. No, he's a great actor. And also, Gwyneth Bolljo, great voice. I'm going to say it. I think she has a wonderful voice. I remember when she was on Glee and I was impressed. She was good on Glee.

She was good on Glee. I actually don't know that, but I'm going to say yes for the purposes of this work. I've watched her landslide cover that she like cries through on Glee multiple times. Like a lot. The movie is good. It has a 22% on Rotten Tomatoes. Well, you know. And also every person that I've run this take by disagrees and also

thinks that I'm like I should be fired. Yeah, I have to say that I thought it was crazy and that I did watch Country Strong and fully enjoy it. I've never seen it, but I have listened to the soundtrack. Yeah. I literally downloaded the soundtrack because it's so good. Also, Leighton Meester also has a great voice. She's great voice. Yeah.

So does Garrett Headlin. You see? Okay, I think he has a great voice. No, I was just a general that like comes up whenever someone says Garrett Helmut. Okay, I get that when you take like Lady Gaga and Gwyneth Pacho. Putting those aside, everybody else you have Tim McGrath. Two distinct personas. I'm Bradley Cooper.

In a musical movie, who do you want more? You want Tim McGrath. I mean, you would say that? Garrett Headland is really the Bradley Cooper of Country Strong. Is he? Yes. Okay. You can spoil it.

I don't care. It is. Yeah, it has the exact same plot line. Correct me if I'm wrong. Country Strong. It's very similar. It's like the kind of washed up country singer, Gwenith Pounder. It's just like a really like, yeah, really Gwyneth Pounder.

I'll throw is the Bradley Cooper. Oh, really? Yeah. Does Bradley Cooper die in a starsboard? Oh, my God. Oh, wow. The shock. Oh, my God.

Yes. Let's see the movie. Does he fucking die? Is that true? Wow. Oh, my God. What we're witnessing right now. Oh, my God.

I wish there was a camera. Does he have an addiction problem? Yes. Oh, did you not know that? You just said the place. Lady Gaga had the addiction problem. No. She was this.

She's Garrett-Hedland. On stage. He is like He's like, He's like, Oh my God, is Bradley Cooper A pop star?

He's a country rock star. Oh my God, you need to see the movie. Folk-y kind of. Unbelievable. Is it at the end of the movie just like country showing?

Yes. All right. Moving on. I have to collect myself. Okay, I'm actually very excited about this next topic. This is not worth the tea and I know the point of this

is that it's not worth talking about but just briefly we need to talk about Madonna's. This is alleged. And we'll say that. But they're her butt plants. She looks like she smuggled in sandwiches through her ass.

The photos are crazy. It's like, what is going on? It's, I'm speechless. I'm looking at them for the first time. It's like two sandwiches or like two like sponges. No, it's bigger than that. It's a Kardashian level amount. It's crazy.

But it looks so unnatural on her like super toned. body. It's just, it's so weird. Okay, I'm looking at this for the first time. I did not look at this until literally the second. Madonna got bud implants. There are pictures of her on stage. And it looks like she just has like something in her back pockets that's really giant. Like two huge things in her back pockets. Okay, here's what I will say though on this topic. So she already responded because obviously everyone was up in arms being like, what the hell is up with your body? She said, this is on Instagram, desperately seeking no one's approval and entitled to free agency over my body like everybody else and she continues, which basically is a confirmation that

she got butt implants. That's like my new motto for 2019. I love it. She couldn't have been more clear that she basically was like yes. She was like, yes. Yeah, I did. What of it? Also, good for her. Like, if you're pushing like over 60 and you're like, now is the time of all the other times of my life to do this. To get butt implants. Yeah. You know what, maybe. I mean, go for it, Madonna. Like live your life. She's feeling herself, obviously. I need to see more angles of this. Do you, though? To really support her in this decision? Oh, my gosh.

She dances too much for that. Yeah. And, like, they're not, like, like, like, Iggy Azalea's butt implants were, like, kind of hip implants where, like, it was more, like, like, an hourglass figure. Yeah. This is more like... Yeah. This is, like, generic, yeah. It's weird.

Generic, like... It's a lot. It's a lot. I'm concerned, but we're going to... I'm going to keep an eye out from Madonna's butt. We're going to say it's not worth the tea, only because Madonna can do whatever she wants. Correct. Correct.

Correct. Next thing that's not worth the tea is Justin Bieber's new face tattoo. Yes. Speaking of other body modifications, Justin Bieber recently got a little tattoo of the word grace over his eyebrow, I guess. Yes, it's over his eyebrow. On his browbone, if you want to be scientific. No. And I don't get it. I mean, sure, fine.

You're Justin Bieber. You can do it. Like, you don't have to go to a work interview and be like. Oh, okay. I also had not looked at this. Kate. It's like a Pinterest cursive tattoo. Yes. Like the girl, like black and white pictures of girls on Pinterest with these tattoos.

We're like, I'm one with God. Look at my grace tattoo. But it's above his eyebrow. And he's Justin Bieber. Yeah. The tattoo artist who did it is super famous John Boy tattoo. He's famous for those like really delicate five. Haley Bieber.

Haley out and like Kylie or something. Yeah, yeah, yeah. Wow. A celebrity tattoo artist. I think of all the things if Justin Bieber were to get a face tattoo, it would be something like because he's very involved in the church. Yeah. He is.

You know? Hill song. Clearly. Yeah. This is unfortunate. Will he get another face tattoo? I think that's it. Like symmetrical?

Oh, wow. Oh, that could look good. What would he say on the other one? Postman-old and always tired on both of his eyes. Right. That looks really good. Yeah, I love that. Oh, that's funny.

But like what would go over the other one? Like, what's a word that works with? Some other Christian. Word? Yeah. Jesus? I don't know. Something like that.

I don't know. I am only pretty shocked because he is. He is in a very, like, he and Haley Bieber are trying to be in this, like, very wholesome, like, time in their lives together. Sure. And a face tattoo doesn't really, like, scream. Well, apparently a religious one does. Yeah, it's a face tattoo for God, so. Right.

So it's okay. I mean, it makes sense the rest of his body is spoken for. Yeah. Okay. Last topic. This is a good one. This is T-Times's most unanswerable question of the week. Yes.

In huge letters, I just want to write, like, Idris Elba. Is my unanswerable question at the week. He, I guess I found out all of this within the last 24, 48 hours. Not only is he a DJ, but he's a successful enough DJ that he's playing at Coachella. Yeah? And is on a lineup pretty high up, I mean, for being Idris Elbow's DJ career. Like, I didn't even know. Eaters Elba's DJ career.

I want that on a T-shirt. Yeah. Did you guys know about this? Okay, I did know about this because I follow him on Twitter and he won't shut the fuck up about it. Okay. Okay. Um, yeah, he's a DJ. He is, I would say, like, not a great one. Oh my God, I heard one of his songs and it was just like, this is not danceable.

Really? It was not good. Okay, how old is Idraselba? Like pushing 50 maybe? I think he's over 50. Okay. I saw Idriselba in the Coachella lineup and I was talking to a friend about this. And I was like, oh, that's some indie band that's like trying to be funny. Oh my God, yes, yeah.

And I was serious. And he's like, no, this is actually DJ Idriselba. This is really Idriselba. He is 46, so that's not that bad. I thought he was over 50. Okay, first of all, Idrisalba looks great. Yeah, obviously. Good actor.

Yes. Not a DJ, I feel like. Maybe just let that one go. Can you see him up on a stage of thousands of screaming like rave for people being like, like with his little headphones? Idris. What is he going to wear? Because he's a serious guy.

That tent will be 200,000 degrees. Oh, my God. I don't know. He'll be a tank time. He also has a new Netflix show coming out about being. a DJ. Wow. It's a comedy.

Okay. Wait. To be clear, he's playing a manny who like... A manny who a DJ is, you're right. Yes, exactly. Yeah. Like, DJ's on the side. Yeah.

Well, you know, according to Vulture, he's played a set at Glastonbury, which is one of those... He has... He's a lot of festival. Yeah, yeah, yeah. And then apparently he opened for Madonna on the German leg of her Rebel Heart Tour. Pre-bud implants. Pre-butt implants. What was Rebel Heart Tours out a long time ago?

I think it was like Glass. I don't know. I don't know. I don't know. I'm sorry. After Madonna was big enough to have Idriselbo. Okay, next podcast, we get definitive ages and we get definitive dates to these things. Oh, Madonna. Good note. Good note. But yeah, who knows what's happening with Idrigal? A lot of weird shit at Coachella this year. Yeah, I was going to say, like, Ariana Grande, Childich Camino and Tamer Paula are the headliners. Yeah. Ironne Grande was a given, though. Tame and Paa was a huge question mark. Yeah. And Childics Camino, like, sure.

Yeah. There's also like just weird people weirdly high up. And Kanye pulled out. Right. That's for the best. Yeah. Yeah, for sure. But like Janemone, that's great.

Oh, God, I love her. Like in the second line, you know, where like all the big people who aren't big enough to be headliners, there's like a K-pop group, which is baffling to me. That I'm excited for them. I'm psyched, actually. I really like them. It's black pink. But like, who, like, are they as big as Janemone? They're like in the same line as Janemone.

in the 1975 Diplo So anyway That's It's a weird lineup this year Yeah But like I guess

Best of like to Idris And best of like to Ariana Grande She's going to do The absolute most She's gonna be great During her said And I'm so excited

Yeah It's gonna be great Although does she cool it Between now and April Just in I mean she's Well she was like Where does she go from here

She was like I'm never gonna be in a relationship Ever again How dare you put that tone I heard of We're here to support her Amelia. Okay, but then she showed up looking great with that guy that Ricky Alvarez, her backup dancer guy.

Oh, right. And like, they could be friends. I don't know. That's what she said. I support all of her choices right now. I'm just saying. This was eliminated and now I hate Amelia. Okay, that was the last topic.

This has been tea time. We'll be back in two weeks. We will. God, who knows what could have gone down by that. The world will be burned down by that. It will. But I look forward to finding out. And thanks for listening.

I'm Kate Alwell. I'm Liz Kelly. And I'm Amelia Wademeyer.
