#108 Do We Have A Right To Know Celebrities’ Personal Drama?

Jordana starts today’s ep by debriefing the U Up? Live show in the cleaner, smaller New York—AKA Boston. Jordana, Aleen, and Sami are all going to the LA show next week, which will be the first time Aleen’s been to SoCal since her choker-wearing days. Obvi they can’t mention LA without a convo on the Kardashians, and how Kim K broke the Marilyn Monroe dress (yikes). They then talk about another LA star Justin Bieber, and his very scary facial paralysis. Next is a discussion of J.Lo’s new movie Halftime, before getting into the fat-shaming drama surrounding influencer Remi Bader. They wrap up with a chat about Britney Spears’ wedding (and her ex-BF wedding crasher), before debriefing how Erika Jayne can’t afford to pay $2 million in taxes. Have you seen her closet?

Time has indeed passed, the clock continues to tick—AKA Jordana, Aleen, and Sami don’t have a ton of updates from the last time we all chatted. So, onto pop culture we go. Sami starts off by debriefing Julia Haart’s new book (re: the My Unorthodox Life star), and there’s a lot to discuss. No, it’s not PG, and Aleen even spits out her coffee after hearing one of the sex stories—you’ll def want to tune in. Back to PG programming, they segue onto celeb kids and discuss celeb parenting styles—think Prince Louis at the Platinum Jubilee and Pete Davidson taking Saint West on an outing sans Kim K. They wrap up by asking the big q we all wanna know: did Kylie Jenner name her baby yet? Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices

This week in the life of Betches: Aleen had her first house pool party (a saxophone was indeed brought out), Jordana’s getting a massage, and Sami’s actually in Italy right now with her mom (jealous). Of course, you can’t bring up Italy without diving into the spectacle that was Kourtney Kardashian and Travis Barker’s wedding. Jordana and Aleen discuss all the detes, before having a quick chat about sister Khloe and Tristan Thompson. Should Khloe keep defending him?

On this special bonus episode of the @Betches podcast, Jordana, Sami, and Aleen join moderator Ann Shoket (author and former editor-in-chief of Seventeen Magazine) live on stage from the WHH Empower Hour, presented by Heineken 0.0. They start with a conversation about the new definition of “work-life balance” and why it has become such a moving target. Plus, they offer some negotiating tips related to Jordana’s favorite topic, dating. Is finding the right job (and setting expectations) the same as finding a romantic partner? Next, they play a game of “Connected or Rejected” all about red flags when you’re applying for a new job. Finally, they close out the show with some questions from the audience and a pair of stories about cover letter mistakes and the worst interview they’ve ever witnessed.
