    The Rest Is...Owen Cooper - The PR & Pressures Of Child Stars

    Owen Cooper - The PR & Pressures Of Child Stars This week on The Rest Is PR, Jacki and Lyle turn their attention to the complex and often precarious world of child stardom, following Owen Cooper’s historic Emmy win for his role in the Netflix hit Adolescence. At just 15, Cooper became the youngest ever male recipient of the Outstanding Supporting Actor award . But with the accolade comes a heightened level of public attention, media scrutiny, and long-term pressure. Jacki reflects on Cooper’s acceptance speech, highlighting a moment that left her uneasy - his claim that he was 'nothing three years ago.' While she praises his talent and success, Jacki raises concerns about what this particular line might indicate about how Hollywood positions young actors and how prepared Cooper truly is for the intense spotlight ahead. Lyle agrees, pointing to the wider PR challenges that come with child stardom, and the industry’s troubling history of overexposure, burnout, and, at times, exploitation. They both criticise Jimmy Kimmel’s recent interview with Cooper, where the late-night host jokingly remarked, 'If you fail, who cares?' - a comment that both Jacki and Lyle argue reflects a deeper issue in Hollywood’s treatment of young talent. Lyle briefly draws on the likes of Leonardo DiCaprio and Daniel Radcliffe as examples of young stars who we were thrust into the limelight, asking what lessons the industry - and Cooper’s own team - must take on board to safeguard his future. Jacki stresses the important role Cooper's parents will have, and how they should trust themselves and not back down on decisions over his future. Is this a pivotal moment to rethink how young actors are managed and protected? And what are the PR dos and don’ts when guiding a rising star through their most formative years?

    The Rest Is...Harry & Meghan - The PR Behind Harry's Recent UK Trip

    Harry & Meghan – The PR Behind Harry’s Recent UK Trip This week on The Rest Is PR, Jacki and Lyle unpack the latest moves from Prince Harry as he makes a solo trip back to the UK — a visit framed around paying respects to his late grandmother, Queen Elizabeth II, but also one that could mark the start of a reconciliation with King Charles and the wider Royal Family. Jacki highlights why this feels like one of the most positive PR stories we’ve seen from the Sussexes in a long time, praising Harry’s comms team for their strategic handling of the visit and the way Harry himself has listened to and trusted their guidance. Could this careful positioning be part of a broader long-term plan to rebuild trust at home? Lyle asks how this shift in tone for Harry sits alongside Meghan’s own ongoing PR strategy given her continuing projects in the US? With her 'With Love, Meghan' series struggling to gain traction, could diverging PR strategies between the two cause future challenges for the couple’s brand as a whole? Or is Harry simply embarking on a fact-finding mission ahead of bringing Meghan and the family across the pond on his next trip? Jacki also underlines the appetite in the UK for healing the royal rift, suggesting this trip may be the first step in a more deliberate strategy to mend fractured family relationships — and possibly reshape the couple's narrative for years to come.

    The Rest Is...Blake Lively vs. The Influencers - Megyn Kelly, Perez Hilton & Co Fight Back

    Blake Lively vs. The Influencers – Megyn Kelly, Perez Hilton & Co Fight Back This week on The Rest Is PR, Jacki and Lyle dive into the latest twist in Blake Lively’s legal battle with former co-star Justin Baldoni — a saga that has now pulled in some of the biggest names in media and influencer culture. Lively has reportedly subpoenaed Megyn Kelly and Perez Hilton, alleging they were part of a wider smear campaign allegedly orchestrated by Baldoni’s camp. Kelly hit back by branding Lively a “nasty Hollywood snob,” while Lively’s own team denied they had officially subpoenaed her — leaving fans, critics, and PR watchers asking: what is really going on? Jacki explores whether this latest move is a strategic attempt by Lively to wrestle back control of the narrative, or if it risks looking like “bully-boy” tactics in the court of public opinion. She also makes a bold prediction about Lively’s next possible move — and whether husband Ryan Reynolds could play a key role. Meanwhile, Lyle raises the question: are influencers like Kelly and Hilton simply impossible targets? With loyal audiences, constant visibility, and high exposure, could taking them on backfire spectacularly? And, ultimately, do Lively and Reynolds even care about public perception — or is this about something much bigger, and possibly more financially motivated? Join the conversation in the comments: is Blake Lively winning the PR battle, or digging herself in deeper? 🎧 The Rest Is PR — Where Pop Culture Meets PR.

    The Rest Is...Taylor Swift & Travis Kelce - Their Engagement PR Masterclass

    Taylor Swift & Travis Kelce – Their Engagement PR Masterclass This week on The Rest Is PR, Jacki and Lyle unpack what has undoubtedly been the pop culture story of the week: Taylor Swift’s engagement to her partner, NFL star Travis Kelce. Swift announced the news on Instagram with the caption: “Your english teacher and your gym teacher are getting married.” The post featured photos of Kelce down on one knee alongside a close-up of the ring, and instantly sent fans wild - and had PR professionals once again singing her praises. Jacki breaks down why this announcement was such a comms triumph, and how Swift’s team, fronted by longtime PR lead Tree Paine, continues to deliver one perfectly managed moment after another. Is this the best example yet of Swift’s incredible communications strategy? Lyle asks what this engagement means for Travis Kelce’s own PR journey - with the American football star now firmly inside the famously tight-knit Swift comms bubble. And the pair also analyse the social media reactions to the announcement: Sabrina Carpenter, Charlie Puth and Iga Świątek rushed to congratulate the couple, while Swift’s girl-squad members Gigi Hadid, Karlie Kloss and Cara Delevingne quickly liked the post. But Blake Lively, one of Swift’s closest friends, has remained notably silent. Was this the right choice? And what does it say about her relationship with Swift? Join the conversation in the comments: was this engagement announcement one of the most iconic celebrity PR moves we’ve seen in years? 🎧 The Rest Is PR — Where Pop Culture Meets PR.

    The Rest Is...The Macrons vs. Candace Owens - The Defamation Lawsuit & The PR Response

    Did the Macrons make a major PR misstep with defamation lawsuit? 🇫🇷 This week on The Rest Is PR, Jacki and Lyle unpack the explosive legal battle between French President Emmanuel Macron, his wife First Lady Brigitte Macron, and controversial US podcaster Candace Owens. Owens is standing by the conspiracy theories she has perpetuated about Brigitte Macron’s gender — claims that first emerged in France in 2021 at the height of the pandemic and the gilet-jaunes protests. The involvement of Owens has seen things escalate: 🔹 A US defamation lawsuit 🔹 Private investigators digging into Owens 🔹 Alleged links to French far-right media 🔹 And even Donald Trump, at the request of Emmanuel Macron, calling Owens personally during her podcast recording! Jacki questions whether the legal route was the smartest PR move — or if the Macrons should’ve used the French media to disprove the claims and reveal their truth. Could this legal strategy backfire in the court of public opinion? And what’s next whether they win or lose? Jacki and Lyle also discuss comparisons to the Blake Lively vs. Justin Baldoni saga, what this all means for fighting misinformation in the digital age, and who exactly do the public side with in these situations - the bully or the bullied?

    The Rest Is...The American Eagle Sydney Sweeney Campaign - Backlash, Controversy, & Fallout

    This week on The Rest Is PR, Jacki and Lyle discuss the controversy around American Eagle’s 'Sydney Sweeney Has Great Jeans' campaign — a controversial marketing move that has sparked headlines, conversation, and outrage in equal measure. The campaign has been criticised for symbolising a move away from more diverse fashion campaigns and, more controversially, for wordplay that some have claimed carries historically problematic connotations. American Eagle’s official stance remains that this campaign 'is and always was about the jeans'. Jacki and Lyle analyse whether this 'ragebait' campaign may have just been a short-term win, and what the longer term PR and brand ramifications could be. In this episode: - How American Eagle’s response differs from what they may have said five years ago - Why Jacki thinks the brand’s approach may have been too clever for its own good - and what she would have advised as an alternative - Lessons from other industries - from mobile gaming to the Wicked movie campaign - Sydney Sweeney’s own PR strategy — why it’s working and what she should do next Join the conversation in the comments: what have you made of the American Eagle campaign? 🎧 The Rest Is PR — Where Pop Culture Meets PR. #AmericanEagle #SydneySweeney #BrandControversy #MarketingStrategy #PRCaseStudy #TheRestIsPR #Podcast Hosted on Acast.
