Sure there was a little bit of drama this week but it seems an overwhelming majority of entertainment news was exactly what it should be - entertaining.
One thing that was absolutely full octaine this week was Tom Cruise’s new Mission Impossible trailer so naturally we have to discuss it first. It’s the seventh film in the MI franchise and it’s looking like it’s going to be just as exciting as the rest.

Elsewhere, Taylor Swift called out one of her security guards mid-song when she noticed them harassing a concert-goer. While performing Bad Blood she stopped and walked to the edge of the stage pointing to the crowd and saying “She’s fine. She wasn’t doing anything. Hey, stop! Stop.”
Revealing the cover of the 2023 swimsuit issue, the celebrated chef wore a white one-piece swimsuit from Monday with an orange Torso Creations cover-up, as well as a fresh-faced makeup look and blowout hairstyle.
Stewart admitted that she was “sort of shaking” as she showed it off but declared, “I like that picture.” She continued to say it was “odd” to pose in swimwear “in front of all those people”, but added that she thought it “turned out okay”.
Looking like a chuffed and smitten grandfather, Sir Rod Stewart met his two grandson’s Louie Mark Roderick Stewart, - the son of Stewart and New Zealand supermodel Rachel Hunter’s son Liam Stewart - and Otis Stewart Kalic - the son of Stewart’s daughter Ruby.
