Did Gwyneth ‘belittle’ her ex Brad?
Lauren Sánchez’s literal gold handbag, and feuding Nicki Minaj put in her place... by Elon Musk
Hey, it’s The Spotlight — your personal front-row seat for all the hottest showbiz stories. Here’s what’s happening…
Tell-all claims Gwyneth treated Brad ‘insufferably’… as daughter Apple betrays her with carbs
Oh, Gwyneth. The Goop queen is getting dragged in a new biography by Amy Odell that claims her snooty ass used to ‘educate unsophisticated’ actor Brad Pitt on things like the difference between beluga and ossetra caviar when they dated in the ’90s.
‘Classic classist snob with no taste, no humour,’ fumed a poster on Reddit, while another simply said, ‘She is exhausting.’
The book suggests she ‘belittled’ Brad while they were engaged while also crushing on Hugh Grant mid-Emma shoot. Then years later she seemingly mocked Brad by saying being with him was ‘like dating Prince William’.
Gwyneth’s life is the most ridiculous soap opera, we’re just here for the recaps.
And the book has plenty more. According to Odell, Gwyneth’s long friendship with Madonna ended when the Material Girl crashed her romantic holiday with then-husband Chris Martin and cursed out her own daughter, Lourdes, at dinner.
Gwyneth apparently decided Madonna was toxic and ditched her for good. But really, on this one, can you blame her?
Back to now, though, and all that teaching about caviar and no carbs seems to be falling on deaf ears. Gwyneth, take a deep yoga breath because your daughter Apple just made a Declaration of Diet Independence.
We saw Apple picking up not one but TWO takeaway pizzas in the Hamptons. This after Gwyneth made headline news out of eating a single slice of sourdough recently.
Apple might be a Vanderbilt student who works out in starry fitness trainer Tracy Anderson's class, but seems like she’s also inhaling garlic bread on the reg.
Apple’s out here living, carbs included.
Lauren Sánchez is gold-dipped, diamond-loaded and really wants you to know it
Lauren Sánchez is living like Queen Midas now she's Mrs Amazon.
The newly minted Mrs has been parading around a Hermès Kelly Midas bag that’s literally dipped in gold. We’re talking 18-karat gold handles, solid gold hardware, and a price tag of $250,000 (£186k). Midas, huh? Now remind us, how did that story end?
Anyway, while the rest of us are googling ‘how much is too much to spend on a Pret sandwich’, Lauren’s styling her bag with Versace leather, Dior skirt sets, and Grace Kelly-coded headscarves.
The only question is, when you can have anything because hubby’s worth $238billion (£188b), when do you stop?
Because remember that giant pink diamond Bezos proposed with? Lauren upgraded it for the wedding, debuting a new ring worth up to $5 million (£3.7m).
Naturally, TikTok ‘jewellers’ immediately shared concerns that it’s ‘an accident waiting to happen’ because the band looks too delicate to handle a rock that size. But if it breaks, let’s face it: Bezos will just buy her another.
In this week’s VIP-only deep dive, top showbiz reporter Alison Boshoff revealed the ‘well-mannered’ A-lister who called her the c-word.

RIP our interest in Justin and Hailey Bieber
The popcorn is stale and we are leaving the cinema mid-film because our interest in this on-again/off-again has officially died.
Justin and Hailey Bieber are back at it. But rather than shading each other, this time they are posting a cutesy PDA dump.
They’re in Switzerland. Justin’s in pearls, Hailey’s flipping the bird with her wedding ring back on.
Meanwhile he’s singing about her ‘throwing stones’ at him on his new album. We get it, you’re in love, you’re complicated, you like playing out the dramz on Insta… Have fun.
Hailey called the folks concerned for her and Justin ‘losers’ last week. And I guess we’re finally concluding she’s right.

Yesterday it was Nicki vs SZA. Today? Elon Musk’s Grok has entered the chat
So, yesterday we told you about the ‘out of nowhere’ Nicki Minaj vs SZA feud.
Today, it’s messier: Elon Musk’s Grok app is in the group chat, giving Nicki unsolicited career advice. Remember, this is the AI last seen praising Hitler and having to be restrained. Yikes.
After Nicki shaded SZA’s success (‘Does SZA think she’s more successful than me?’), Grok hit back with, ‘Skip the beef — SZA’s 5 Grammys and 12.5 million units show her edge.’
A fan begged Grok to be nice, but the bot clapped back, ‘Facts remain’.
But it was SZA who shut the internet down with her own receipts, posting a screenshot that showed Nicki asked to collaborate with her in the past … but apparently got no response.
She ended her clap-back with a cold, ‘Lol ur having a moment… be blessed.’
Eeek. That one hurt.
Kim K’s ex Pete Davidson’s baby announcement is… peak Pete Davidson
Pete Davidson, the reformed chaos king, and model girlfriend Elsie Hewitt, 29, are expecting their first child after a blink-and-you-miss-it romance.
The announcement? A bump pic and Pete’s caption: ‘welp now everyone knows we had sex.’
The skinny, grubby-looking comedian, 31, dated a string of famous hotties like Kim Kardashian, Ariana Grande, Kate Beckinsale, Kaia Gerber and the rest of Hollywood — we still don't get it. Now he’ll be swapping late-night hookups for night feeds.
Good luck to him!
Rob Kardashian says he’s off the market because the only girl he’s taking on dates is his daughter Dream, and she prefers ice cream over dinner anyway.
She's moved to Paris after that college admissions disgrace, and Olivia Jade says it will be 'formative', which is cute considering bribing her way into USC was, too.
Stranger Things 5 trailer is here, proving these kids will graduate… never.
Lindsay Lohan just said (again) that her youthful glow is just green juice and beets, not surgery... guys, it’s Freaky Friday because her face swapped with its 2004 self.
Power couple goals: Jay z and Beyonce about to fight for Emmys instead of who left the dishes in the sink.
