Who? Weekly

Hellooooo from the windy city! That's Chicago (FYI), and after 72 long hours hanging out at the bean and touring most of the locations from My Best Friend's Wedding, we're taking a break to play an epic match-up of "I Don't Know Her." It's been a while since we've played, and we're ready to make some tough decisions. Then, WHAT'S RITA UP TO? (A: What ISN'T she up to, really.)

One day they'll give us 1-800-WHO-THEM, but for now you'll have to remember that it's a 619 (Thanks, San Diego!) area code so you don't get some sort of sex line. (Or so we've heard!) Thank god enough people remembered the correct number, because today we're talking about Elizabeth Gillies (#spon), why A Walk to Remember is *actually iconic* (but is it tho?), Nikki Blonsky from the movie Hairspray, why Becky G was dragged off a Fifth Harmony concert stage (#cursed), Georgina Chapman and why how much we'd pay to see Long Island medium Theresa Caputo at a casino. (A: Not much.)

After beginning the episode with a story about the two Whos (and two Thems) Bobby encountered on a recent flight, we move on to the following topics:Sam Smith's new boyfriendGrace Gummer's new boyfriendSofia Vergara's requestMandy Moore's endoscopyJude Law's sweatpantsRita Ora's balloonsI assure you that these topics are all profoundly interesting. Today’s episode of Who Weekly is brought to you by the new series, Dynasty. Watch it  this Wednesday at 9/8 central on The CW.

Your thoughts on Pioneer Woman (Anne Ma-)Ree Drummond? (Yes, that's her real name!) We'll start with those. Then, exactly why Shania Twain has NOT met Brad Pitt—he truly does not impress her...much, why Josh Gad's tweets are suspect, if Mandy Moore's dye job changed her career trajectory, if Bella Thorne is *actually* dating YouTuber named Tana Mongeau and blah blah blah who the hell cares about Colin Jost. Join us!

Despite Bobby's irrational frustrations with Ree Drummond (aka The Pioneer Woman), her appearance on last week's People cover has made her impossible to ignore. And after sharing some fun facts about her and Ladd (can you believe both of them have double letters in their monosyllabic names?!?!), we provide you with a Kevin Can Wait Update™, discuss Eva Marcille's big return to reality TV, and provide proof that breaking up with Heidi Klum is hazardous to one's wellbeing. SPON TIME: Today’s episode of Who Weekly is brought to you by the new series, Dynasty, premiering next Wednesday, October 11th, at 9/8 central on The CW.

Q: Did the blinds about the (alleged) triple Kardashian pregnancy THREE YEARS AGO? A: Depends on how devious you consider Kris Jenner to be. Plus, Wendy Williams becomes the center of a major Daily Mail investigation, we decipher the Skarsgårds from the Sarsgaard and Scheana Shay does groundbreaking #spon for a lawyer. One more double-sided Q: Does Donatella Versace know who George Bush is? Does George Bush know who Donatella Versace is?

After opening the episode with a VERY special unboxing segment (yes, we understand unboxing is an ineffective concept on a podcast), we bring you a politics-adjacent Kevin Can Wait Update™, followed by big stories on: Kylie Jenner and Travis Scott, Fergie's smoothie, and--unfortunately--Nikki Reed and Ian Somerhalder. Turns out Reed got pregnant because Somerhalder threw her birth control pills in the toilet, but before you get outraged...read her Notes App screenshot. (We were unable to provide audio from Nikki and Ian's interview because the podcast it came from mysteriously deleted the episode...hmm...) And then there's Rita, who was so busy this week singing covers, releasing music videos, and wearing fanny packs on her shoulder.

Did you watch The Emmys? Wondering who that announcer was? Well, you're not alone. That guy! Plus! So much more, including: Emmy winner Ann Dowd, rapper Lil Peep (yes, the guy with the plentiful face and neck tattoos who is ALLEGEDLY dating Bella Thorne), singer Dua Lipa, the break up of Hayden and Rachel and brand new Aussie Bachelorette, Sophie Monk. (Australia, tell us, do you claim her?)

Fresh off the first shows of our Fall 2017 Tour (HAVE YOU BOUGHT TICKETS YET?!), we get right back into it with a discussion about some very important, very new Them-adjacent Whos: Francia Raisa (the woman who gave Selena Gomez her kidney) and Taylor Goldsmith (the man who gave Mandy Moore his heart). Also in this episode: Shawn Mendes's favorite scent, a Kevin Can Wait Update, some HUGE Rita Ora news, and the fight that left Mario Lopez's phone shattered in a Las Vegas gym.

Knock, knock? It's been a while since I've done that joke, right? It's time for another Who's There? on the first day of our Big Fall Tour. (See you tonight in Brooklyn, ya'll!) First, you (yes, YOU) get down to the bottom of why John Stamos was at that random Nina Dobrev-hosted lake party. Then, last night's telethon. Did you watch it? Lindsey did. Plus, what it feels like to wake up after surgery and realize that Eric & Jessie: Game On is the only show left on TV. And do Stephen Dorf and Elle Fanning keep in touch?

We're back from a vacation that wasn't with a brand new episode! After a quick Kevin Can Wait Update, we talk about your FAVORITE Bachelor ever, Arie Luyendyk Jr.! Or maybe he's your LEAST favorite Bachelor ever! Or maybe you don't even remember him! Or maybe you swore off watching every entry in the Bachelor franchise!!! The point is, this Arie guy is dull. Also in today's episode: a Property Brother was conned out of $80,000 worth of magic tricks before he was a Property Brother, Paul Hollywood made a dumb decision, and Margot Robbie didn't know her. See you Thursday! And DON'T FORGET TO BUY TICKETS TO OUR TOUR! WhoWeekly.us/LIVE

Anyone feel like they didn't hear ENOUGH about Kaley Cuoco's partnership with / love of Panera's new Beverage Station? Well, lucky for you, there's a lot more where that came from. Beyond Kaley's love for low-cal beverages, we've got an explanation of why James Blunt appears to be *everywhere*, why even a SEVENTEEN YEAR OLD didn't get Katy Perry's "Swish Swish" video, if Swipe Up is the new Link in Bio, and why John Stamos was hanging out with Nina Dobrev and Chord Overstreet at an '80s Labor Day party.

Look, we know Catherine Zeta-Jones is a Them, but her new line of home goods, aptly named Casa Zeta-Jones, is *absolutely* a Who. After exploring her minimal--though immensely satisfying--internet presence (have you ever SEEN an Instagram grid as good as hers?!), we move on to stories about Derek Hough's love for veganism, the way Us Weekly covered Abigail Anderson's wedding (Spoiler: they don't show the bride's face), and play a special Labor Day game of 'Labor Day or Labor Nay'.

First we tips from Fame Game author and all-around celebrity expert, Rachel McCord, by reading her website. Then, we use those tips to investigate the recent (and past!) scandal's of Louise Linton—yes, the Instagram getting-off-the-plane lady. Plus, did LOST produce any Thems? And we discover the most important thing that happened surrounding MTV's VMAs this year. (No, it wasn't any of the actual awards.)

Well well well, Bobby finally sat down and watched not ONE but TWO movies about an unexpectedly romantic season in a vineyard over the weekend, and has plenty to say about the experience. We chase that full-bodied cabernet sauvignon with a little chatter about Nick Viall and Vanessa Grimaldi's 100% totally real engagement, Jessie J's love of Cheetos, Dylan Sprouse's (the non-Jughead Sprouse) hypnotic non-admission of guilt, and--after a rundown of this year's Whoiest VMA nominees--the most UPSETTING Rita Ora story of 2017. Are you ready for Summer in the Whoniverse?

We're back after last week's technical difficulty—which may have been caused by the eclipse? What else was caused by the eclipse? The sudden resurgence of Bonnie Tyler (and her back-up band, DNCE). Plus, some bonus goss for our weekly Kevin Can Wait Update; CBB's Gemma Collins and Sarah Harding, Jenna Bush's brief stand-up comedy career and a disgusting candy store called The Sugar Factory.

Fam, did y'all watch the Teen Choice Awards? Cool, cool, cool. We didn't either. Not one second of it—not that it'll stop us from talking about it. Congrats to Musers(?) like Max & Harvey for...showing up? And to every cast member of Pretty Little Liars (but not Chad Lowe). On today's episode: Italian playboy Gianluca Vacchi, future college classmates Brooklyn Beckham and Sailor Brinkley Cook, Who? Them? Dick Wolf and What's Rachael Leigh Cook Up To?

Did you hear the news? Nikki Reed and Ian Somerhalder had a baby! Did you hear the other news? They named it Bodhi Soleil Reed Somerhalder! Did you hear the other *other* news? They're taking "one month of silence" without visitors or phones, so it looks like we won't be hearing from them! (We doubt they'll make it more than a couple of days.) Also featured in today's episode: The Kevin Can Wait Update (a new weekly feature), Jeremy Meeks, (the hot felon who has a scorned wife and a billionaire girlfriend), and RITA—whose album was delayed *yet again*.

On today's call-in edition of Who? Weekly—we're shook over The Bachelorette finale (but mostly by her #spon); we're shook over how Anna Faris and Chris Pratt released their break-up news (Are iMessages the new Notes app?); we're shook that YouTube legend is living in the Celebrity Big Brother house; and we're shook by the breakout star of The CW's The Bold Type. (HINT: She's an icon and a legend.)

We couldn't help ourselves. Today's episode begins with even more chatter about Erinn Hayes, the ***FORMER*** star of Kevin Can Wait who was cruelly killed off by bigwigs at CBS who think America would prefer Leah Remini. (They're not wrong, but we're still sad about Erinn.) Later, the smelly pu...vagina story heard 'round the world--or at least in the general vicinity of Bravo--has finally come to an end. Next up, Lindsey makes Bobby play a game about two very recent Wholebrity weddings. And finally, Rita was allegedly chosen by teens.

First, the new Jessica Biel USA show that has us asking...Why are we seeing the poster for this wherever we go? Then, speaking of new TV shows, we get the full rundown (from a local!) of MTV's Laguna Beach knock-off, Siesta Key. Plus, who's Poppy and why is the internet obsessed with her? And why is Justin Bieber cancelling his world tour to hang out with a sexy preacher named Carl?

Welcome to the world, Gravity Blue Smith! We're so pleased to have you here. As your first duty on this planet, we're gonna go over all the Boys in Charli XCX's brand new music video "Boys". (It's a lot of boys, am I right?) Get yourself some breastmilk to go, because it's going to be quite the ride. Then, do you know who Deidre Ball is? Don't worry, I didn't either until this week. We're so proud of you and hope you grow up to be what Cindy Adams would call "a non-person"!

First, an A-Block like you've never experienced (and never will again, hopefully)...Doctor Who-Gives-a-Fuck, am I right? Don't answer that. Then, Girls Trip breakout star Tiffany Haddish, Jake Paul, a breakdown of the "Whoiest name", Bella Thorne v Bella Hadid and Kardashian hanger-ons Scotty Cunha and Simon Huck inspire us to invent a new acronym: THAMPS. You'll have to listen to hear what it means!

Two Monday interviews in a row? You're so lucky. Also, we were *so* on vacation, but more on that in the intro. (Which, by the way, doesn't sound GREAT because idyllic cabins aren't great for recording, so please forgive us.) Joining us in this episode is iconic wine drinker, complainer, podcast host, author, and Harry Styles fan Matt Bellassai! He talks to us about what it's like to be a Who with a VERY unique internet fandom, the Whos and Thems of celebrity wine brands, and--how could we forget--Christy Carlson Romano. Later, we chat about Rita and share sartorial evidence that she listens to Who Weekly.

From Full House offspring to someone's god-sister getting the DO NOT DATE HIM warning of a lifetime, welcome to yet another episode of Who's There, in which we take your calls and try not to get stuff wrong. Today: Can you name any members of Imagine Dragons? Can you name the new Doctor Who? (Hint: It's a woman.) Can you name anyone in the 1999 film, "The Blair Witch Project"? We don't talk about that last thing, I was just wondering if you could.

In honor of Canada's 150th birthday (you don't look a day over 100, queen!), today's episode features the star of legendary Canadian export, Degrassi, Lauren Collins! That's right: PAIGE. Lauren chats about Canadian whos, how often she's recognized in America, and her most famous former classmate, Aubrey Drake Graham.

R.I.P. Ghenghis Kahn (the original), who died what we learn is a horrible death. On to more cheery topics, Lele Pons (Remember her?) tried to donate her weave to Locks of Love and Christopher Nolan "has no idea" who Harry Styles is...err...was...before he cast him in Dunkirk. Plus, are there Them bands with all Who members? And when was the exact moment in time when YOU realized that Oliver Hudson was Kate Hudson's brother? Find out in this week's Who's There!

Instead of boring you with dozens of Shookus puns, let's just get right to the point: this week we discuss Ben Affleck's new girlfriend Lindsay Shookus (specifically why she reminds us of Nina Katz), Khloe Kardashian's favorite florist (he's a Cleveland teen), and Julianne Hough's wedding--WHICH FINALLY HAPPENED. Plus: we play a "game" about celebrity dog names. Oh, and one more thing...Rita's writing a movie.

Back from a long holiday weekend, and we missed a Nikki Blonsky Instagram livestream? WHAT? Catch up with us on that journey, as well for details on Brie Larson's music career, which Haim sister is Bobby's favorite (HINT: it's the Who-iest one), Suki Waterhouse's latest starring(!) role, the Whos and Thems of nuts and what exactly is WhoSay and why do some celebs still use it?

This week on Who's There? it's true, we're catering to YOU. First, more on Rihanna's new hook-up, Hassan Jameel, and whyyyyy that explains her 'feud' with Naomi Campbell. Then, who remains a Who post-Pretty Little Liars? Is it...all of them? Some of them? A newly-mommy'd mommy vlogger named Acacia Brinley who does some of the most impressive Instagram #spon we've ever seen. James Packer gets himself into some trouble with the Israel government? (And Mariah has no idea what we're talking about.) Ed Westwick got a new girlfriend and her name SOUNDS familiar? Anyone? Bueller? Teresa Giudice Vagina Monologues?

Amina and Shani are back this week for another installment of Who Dat, and there's SO much to cover. From the basketball player whose last name is literally Ball and whose company branding looks like the Better Business Bureau logo to whether or not Blair Underwood is a Them. (SPOILER: HE IS DEFINITELY A THEM, YOU MONSTERS!) P.S. if you know the person in charge of Rachel Lindsay's Instagram account (or of you're Rachel Lindsay herself), please get in touch with Amina IMMEDIATELY.

Today on Who's There? A shocking twist in the Bachelor in Paradise saga—even we didn't see this coming. Plus, Drake Bell and Josh Peck fight it out on social media, Callie Hernandez, Miley Cyrus' brother Braydon (and do we HAVE to talk about him?), why Lindsey can't finish a book (HINT: it has to do with her discovering Terrace House on Netflix) and...Beetlejuice Beetlejuice Beetlejuice.

After beginning the show with the first (and hopefully last) instance of Lindsey discussing the plot of The Boss Baby, we dive into two instances of Whos and Who? Weekly being brought up to ACTUAL Whos Ansel Elgort (he'll be a Them soon enough) and...Jordan Gavaris. Moving on, Lindsey explains what's going on with Bachelor In Paradise, Bobby explains why he thinks Ty Burrell pooped his pants in Times Square as opposed to peeing them, and Rita wears stripes.

The Whos...the Thems...the fabric of our lives. ~Zooey Deschanel...and Kate Bosworth...and us on this week's Who's There? featuring all of the above. Plus, art world Whos, The Kaplan Twins, Kaitlyn Isham and Cheryl Maitland, a list of Gay Thems who are Straight Whos (according to Bobby) and the correct way to pronounce "Degrassi" — SHOCKING HINT: Lindsey got it wrong.

You probably heard about that big interview with Amanda Bynes (her first in years)--maybe you eve heard about her referencing that iconic "MURDER MY VAGINA" tweet!--but did you actually WATCH it? If so, you may have wondered who the hell Diana Madison was. We sure did, and do our best to explain who she is on today's episode. After that, we discuss Jessica Chastain's new whosband, Gian Luca Passi de Preposulo, and play a special HGTV version of I Don't Know Her. Then, as always, Rita, who is rocking both curls AND sideboob.

Hugh Sheridan? Asher Angel? Max Minghella? Jimmy Brooks? (Yes, that last one is a *bit* misleading.) Today's show is chockfull of your questions and our sometimes-answers. For example, why are Tim Meadows and Catt Sadler (???) in an extremely confusing car ad? Did Jennifer Lopez know who Bethenny Frankel was pre-A Rod? And find out exactly what Cory Monteith's brother doing in Canada...You don't wanna miss it.

We're sorry for missing last Monday's (we were trying to identify Wholebrities IRL), but are happy to be back to our regular schedule. And lemme tell you--it's a doozy. After a brief update on Bella Thorne's form, we move on to what may have been the wedding of the, or at the very least the wedding of this particular lunar cycle. Hannah Bronfman, a Who we've somehow never discussed before, married someone who shares not one, not two, but THREE of her jobs. If that's not true love, I don't know what is. Also on today's show: The protesters at Rebel Wilson's defamation suit were incredible, Rob Kardashian doesn't know her, and Austin Swift is #notgonnahappen.

The long-awaited Ashley I. episode is here! If you're not familiar, today we're getting some behind-the-scenes goss from Bachelor and Bachelor in Paradise alum, Ashley Iaconetti—whose iconic cry faces delighted audiences across the globe. Plus, a stories about Who-spotting in Los Angeles and haaaaaaaave you heard Rita's new single? (...BUT WHAT ABOUT CARLY RAE JEPSEN'S?)

It's that time of the week once again, time again to answer your calls. You wanna know what's the deal with HGTV and which Shonda Rhimes shows are Whos and Thems. You wanna know if Aziz Ansari gradWHOated. You wanna know if Emily VanCamp is marrying her co-star (and who he is). There are so many things you wanna know, and we have some (a few? maybe?) of the answers. Oh! And to check out the famed Twin Peaks spreadsheet, Who? Peakly, head on over to the Who? Weekly Facebook group.

Today we have an EXTRA SPECIAL and EXTRA LONG interview with actress Busy Philipps about her nearly 20-year career in Hollywood (during which she starred in beloved shows like Freaks & Geeks and Cougar Town), those incredible Instagram stories (including one surprising reason she does them), why Tom Hanks is the greatest, and what most fans usually scream at her. (SPOILER: It's not, "Hey Busy! I loved you in Dawson's Creek!")

WHO is Taylor Swift's [alleged] new boyfriend? WHAT is [allegedly] the worst museum of all time (and why are there so many Thems visiting it?) WHY are they letting Housewives' Bethenny Frankel into the Shark Tank? (Oh, and we recorded a bit about actress Alexandra Daddario but it was too boring so we cut it. Sorry, Alexandra Daddario!)

We took a break from listening to "Yodel It," the best song from this year's Eurovision contest, to talk about...this year's Eurovision contest. How do non-American's watch? Which country won? Does any of this matter? (The answers to those questions are: Logo, Portugal, and ABSOLUTELY.) Anyway, after a lengthy Eurovision chat, we move on to more important things, like Sabra hummus and Pentatonix. I know this episode sounds like a nightmare, but trust us. Better yet: trust Lea Michele.

Again, with the Chrises! Apparently, even Chris Pine knows that everyone can't tell the difference between him and the rest of them. We're not alone! Plus, we learn some disturbing information about Paris Hilton's brother and Paris Hilton's sex tape partner, get an apology from across the pond, figure out exactly what activated charcoal is and why people are obsessed with it all of a sudden and ask our dads about what's going on with Morning Joe and his new fiancé-slash-co-host, Mika.

HUGE GUEST ALERT. Have you ever asked yourself, "Who the fuck is Betty Who?" Then you're in luck, because this week we interviewed Australian pop star (and our name twin) Betty Who about being recognized in VERY specific neighborhoods, writing the perfect pop song, and her favorite whos from Down Under. Later, we play a game called Australian or Notstralian (self-explanatory, I'm sure), and discuss Rita's recent Instagram with the one and only Ed Sheeran. (Oh, we also begin with a VERY heartfelt apology.)

From the smoke-filled bathrooms of the Met Ball to the preteen-filled bathrooms of the Radio Disney Music Awards, this week's edition of Who's There is truly for everyone. Plus, did you know there's a Who named Lauren Lauren? (first AND last!), a Who named Isla Fisher? (she hikes!) and a Them who got an exciting new job (his last name rhymes with free-quest!)

Hey guys, I just wanted to address Fyre Festival...Even though this was not my project what so ever, nor was I informed about the production or process of the festival in any shape or form, I do know that it has always been out of great intent and they truly wanted all of us to have the time of our lives. I initially trusted this would be an amazing & memorable experience for all of us, which is why I agreed to do one promotion...not knowing about the disaster that was to come... Today's episode is NOT brought to you by the National Pork Board.

Much like Pitbull, Who's There is officially worldwide: We've got calls from China(!), Australia(!), Brooklyn, New York(!)—and everyone's got something to say. Is Rita really "big in China"? Remember Chad Lowe? How does one tell apart Joel Kinnaman, Charlie Hunnam and Jai Courtney? Have you heard Amber Heard and Elon Musk's relationship portmanteau yet? (It's good.) Is Jack Antonoff a Who? And who is Britt Robertson? All this and a very, very special announcement.

This week Bobby revisits his childhood fear of brown recluse spiders when he and Lindsey learn all about Meghan Linsey, namely...A.) who she is, and B) why there's a giant hole in her face. Next up, we chat about two Cyruses, but can you guess which ones? (Hint: they're not Billy Ray, Miley, or Noah.) Finally, we explore one of Us Weekly's best 25 Things installments in months. So raise your hand if you're excited about this episode! (Bobby and Lindsey raise their hands.)

Damn, y'all are smart—on today's Who's There? we learn Cockney rhyming slang for "feet", the "power" of Jim Toth and exactly how Nikki Bella and Sarah Michelle Gellar are connected (hint: it's thru Freddie Prinze Jr.). Then, questions about Noah Cyrus' music (Is it good?), Netflix's '13 Reasons Why' (Who?) and Tobey Maguire (Him?). Plus, unrelated rambling about Lady Gaga's new single, the film 'Music & Lyrics' and what Heidi and Spencer should name their new baby.

This week we had the pleasure of chatting with living wholebrity Debby Ryan! You might remember her from Disney Channel shows like "Jessie" and "Suite Life On Deck" (some of us call it "The Boat"), news about the CW pilot she just filmed, or maybe from that time a lot of people assumed she died last year! (It was Debbie Reynolds! R.I.P.) The point is, we had a great time chatting with her about what it was like to become famous at such a young age, and how she responds when confused adults politely ask who she is. After that, we fill you in on everything "Feet-Toe Ora" is up to at WHOchella.
