    How do you solve a problem like Kanye ?

    Starting the week with the big, important questions: would you go to space? Would you get cloned? Would you be cryogenically frozen? Once we’ve solved that, we’re diving headfirst into Bieberchella and the whispers he’s filming a Netflix special off the back of his Coachella set. Then, why the hell is Kanye West quite literally back on top of the world again? As the deeply troubled artist sells out stadiums, drops new music and somehow lands a headline slot at the now-collapsed Wireless Festival in the UK, we’re unpacking why some figures are weirdly un-cancellable, and we’re raging about it, tbh. Over on Aussie TV, Shark! might just be one of the most unhinged concepts we’ve heard of in a while, so naturally, we’re revisiting the most rogue reality shows of all time. In extremely important raving news, a new ~scientific study~ has confirmed what we’ve always known: going out dancing is actually good for you. Doctor’s orders, cuties. And finally, our ins and outs feature a chic lip gloss/keyring combo and a very cute new greeting you’ll be stealing immediately.

    Is this the end of reality TV & it’s time to delete your burner account

    It’s Easter Monday, so what better way to enjoy your choccie eggs than with some equally sweet banter? The gals kick things off with a definitive list of the most embarrassing things one can do as an adult, the celeb memoir they can’t wait to sink their teeth into, and why Lu’s recent mumcation with Revs has totally reset her nervous system. Then, onto the big one: are we finally over Married At First Sight? Why Australia’s favourite trash TV is starting to feel a little… icky. Plus, Lu breaks down Swedish pop princess Zara Larsson’s glow-up and why her rebrand is a full-blown masterclass in listening to meme culture. And in very important Instagram news - there’s a new feature that could change the stalking game forever. But do we love it or hate it? Finally, our INs and OUTs for the week riff on live music, cute knickers and a fiery new email sign-off.  Mentions:  The Haven Backpack from Prene Famesick: A Memoir by Lena Dunham For more reality TV intel, follow Tahlia Pritchard on Instagram @tahliaapritchard BB’s knicker reccos: Cou Cou Intimates   Kat the Label Bonds Live music resources:  bandsintown.com  @bondi_lines @astral people  The Fifth Trimester bangers playlist (updated weekly!)

    Are you dating your dad?! And WTF is the platypus pout 🤔

    Starting the week with a BB-bang, we’re riding high on the news that we’re getting our very own Kylie Minogue Super Bowl performance at the AFL Grand Final later in the year. Plus, her latest Chanel campaign with Margot Robbie has us ~yearning~ for the Y2K glory days. Meanwhile, our fave billionaire babe Taylor Swift and her soon-to-be groom, Travis Kelce, are reportedly plotting a global honeymoon tour, and Australia is on the hit list! Naturally, we have thoughts (and a few notes) on the rest of the itinerary. You’ve heard of ‘siblings or dating’, but allow us to introduce its slightly more cursed iteration: ‘mommy or dating’. Inspired by Australia’s first son, Bobbie Irwin, and his rumoured new flame, who just so happens to be a dead ringer for his mama, Terri Irwin. In Gen Z posing news, duck lips are officially out (RIP to us millennials), and the ‘platypus pout’ is in. We break down exactly what it is, how to do it, and revisit the lewks that defined each generation. We cap it all off with some unhinged IN & OUT energy, sharing our cute autumn fashion picks and some very firm opinions on one particular kids’ party game.

    Taylor Swift’s worth HOW much?! Plus, the rise of the ‘power cry’ 😭

    Ya gals are back and it’s a very self-helpy flavour today! We’re kicking things off with an update on Lu’s love life, revealing why she’s finally letting her freak flag fly. Then, we unpack just how much Taylor Swift is actually worth and it’s jaw-on-the-floor stuff. Onto more serious matters, BB is on a mission to reboot her troubled little soul after a string of intense night terrors, and she’s turning to the likes of Dua Lipa and the late Princess Diana for a little woo-woo inspo, naturally. Meanwhile, Lu takes us on a very detailed breakdown of the most of-the-moment nail trends - from colours to shapes to nail art, and it’s almost convinced raw-dog enthusiast BB to finally hit the salon. When was the last time you cried? It might be time to schedule in a three-minute ‘power cry’, because comedian Tanya Hennessy’s latest column for Body+Soul has us fully sold. Finally, our ins and outs for the week include a hideously ugly yet seriously delicious DIY dessert, plus a wholesome family hobby to add to your roster.   Mentions:  Sassafras: A memoir of love, loss and MDMA therapy, by Rebecca Huntley BB’s crying playlist, Gloomy Tunes Rebecca Mayhew, psychic medium  Tanya Hennessy’s Body & Soul article on the art of the ‘power cry’ The Fifth Trimester bangers playlist (updated weekly!)

    Party planning 101 & the MILFs get a re-brand

    Happy Oscars Day, DLs. Lukewarm take, but are the Oscars the most boring red carpet of them all? We’re recapping the best lewks from Hollywood’s night of nights while also pondering why this year’s ceremony feels a little… meh. Next up, there’s nothing more Fifth Trimester energy than throwing a party. Whether it’s a “just because” shindig or a milestone moment, as Gem and Revs always say - mark the moment. We’re sharing our best party-planning intel for pulling off an iconic event to remember. Whatever your party personality, we’ve got the vision board for you. Then we’re breaking down the steamy new Netflix show Vladimir, starring Rachel Weisz and Leo Woodall, and asking the important question: is this good news or bad news for the MILFs? Finally, our ins and outs include a micro-act of school WhatsApp-group feminism and a very tasty new snack… with garlic?!   Mentions: Sitchu.com.au - great party planning resource for venues  Byron Bay Olive Co. from Harris Farm The Fifth Trimester bangers playlist (updated weekly!)

    It’s Officially Time To Leave Britney Alone & the Rise of Nep-Gen

    Bella’s hobbling into the studio with a Smurfette-blue ankle and the reason why is a timely reminder to us all. Meanwhile, the girls are swooning over an epic live music moment bridging three generations, and all the A-listers who turned out in full force at the Melbourne F1 over the weekend. Nicole Kidman and Keith Urban’s eldest child, Sunday Rose, has made her Australian magazine cover debut, gracing the pages of Elle. She shares fascinating insights into what it’s like to grow up with super-famous parents, and we reveal what this moment actually means for the ongoing Nic vs. Keith narrative. Next, the girls unpack Britney Spears’ arrest and why it might be long overdue for the public to finally look away. Then it’s over to Prince Harry and Meghan Markle, who are officially confirmed to be heading Down Under for a pseudo-royal tour… and what’s Jackie O got to do, got to do with it? BB and Lu have dreamed up the ultimate Aussie itinerary for the Sussex duo and it involves Revolver nightclub, Luna Park and Manly Beach. Finally, our ins and outs for the week include poet-core dressing, a mum-uniform level-up and Botox in a bottle.

    🚨BREAKING🚨Jackie O has left the building

    Exactly as our oracle Lu predicted last week, Jackie ‘O’ Henderson has sensationally quit her $100 million contract with KIIS FM following an on-air blow-up with longtime co-host Kyle Sandilands. Naturally, we had to jump straight on the mics to urgently unpack the bombshell statement, share our predictions on what Kyle and Jackie might do next, what this means for the future of Australian radio, and discuss why - at its core - the abrupt end of this radio dynasty feels really quite sad. Will Kyle and Jackie O ever be mates again? Is it all the blood moon’s fault? And, most importantly… are the astrologers okay? 🌙🔮 The Fifth Trimester bangers playlist (updated weekly!)

    Wake up babe, it’s the ’90s & JFK Jr. just left a message on the answering machine ☎️

    It’s only Monday and the conspiracy theories are already flying. Did Jim Carrey send a body double to an event over the weekend? Bella’s got her tinfoil hat on and is convinced it’s a meta Truman Show moment. Meanwhile, Aussie pop royalty Delta Goodrem has just been announced as our Eurovision kween and with her bangers in the mix, we’re quietly confident she’s a shoo-in. Next, we dive headfirst into the TV show of the moment, Ryan Murphy’s Love Story, and unpack why this ’90s romance has us all pining for a slower, glossier era. From the fashion to the dating rules, we’re utterly obsessed by JFK Jr. and CBK -  icons of a time when love felt cinematic, and life felt understated and chic. In very exciting news, Vogue’s Acting Digital Director and fashion fairy, Alison Izzo, has joined us to help us decode what the actual ’eff we’re meant to be wearing to work out. Her tips are a must-listen. Finally, our ins and outs of the week cover a word that deserves way more airtime, going commando, and a very fancy fitness accessory.
