    Gucci Goes F1, The Ordinary Bus Vanishes & Taylor Swift Enters Toy Story

    WHAT A WEEEEEEK!!!! Love Island UK and USA are both back, which means 12 hours of weekly viewing, and two contestants already gone before the season has properly started. We also unpack the very niche but very entertaining Prickly Pear cafe drama, where a $12 split refresher turned into a full-blown TikTok saga, complete with response videos, apology videos, and why we are uniquely positioned to talk about it!! In the marketing group chat, we get into Gucci becoming Alpine F1’s new title sponsor, Kendall Jenner becoming the global ambassador for Korean skincare brand Anua, The Ordinary’s free New York bus disappearing after three days, and Gymshark’s Bratz collab giving… mostly block colours. Plus, Tim Payne accidentally becomes the internet’s favourite World Cup underdog, Miami Swim Week reminds everyone that runway walking is in fact a skill, Taylor Swift sends the Swifties back into detective mode with Toy Story clues, and Georgia finds the pillow of her dreams. wowowow.

    Influencer apologies just got worse, dot cakes and what on earth is the clipping economy

    Georgia is out of her seven month reading slump. All it took was the Off Campus series. Brooke, meanwhile, is planning a solo IKEA trip for lamps, content, and honestly just the vibe of wandering staged kitchens alone.This week we're across dot cakes, Spotify's birthday icon update, the rumoured Real Housewives of Melbourne comeback, and the internet's ongoing argument about polyester versus natural fibres. We also get into the clipping economy, where creators pay people to cut long videos into short viral moments, and what happens when your whole audience knows you through a 15-second clip and nothing else.From there it's influencer apology culture: Millie Savage's AI bird campaign, a Perth activewear brand that went viral for the wrong reasons, and why filming strangers at the gym feels so bad when most people already feel self-conscious just being there. What should creators actually do when their audience feels burned? And why do defensive apologies almost always make it worse?Consider us your internet work wives for the marketing girlies, this is your group chat on branding, pop culture & content.
