It's been quite a week! From the Diddy trial to the Survivor finale right around the corner, I'm breaking it all down for ya. (And an exclusive chat!) Keep scrolling for that and more below.
The biggest story in pop culture right now is the Sean "Diddy" Combs trial. Combs is facing federal charges of sex trafficking, racketeering and transportation to engage in prostitution, and Cassie Ventura's testimony has been a key part of it as of late. Diddy's ex spoke at length about the "freak off" parties, which she called a "job." Here's a full recap of her testimony.
In other entertainment news, Chrissy Teigen opened up about her sobriety on her podcast Self-Conscious With Chrissy Teigen. "I do feel like I do owe it to people," Teigen said. "I will have a glass of wine at a restaurant, and I'll look around, and I'll see people. In my mind, they're like, 'Oh, she's drinking again.'" While she may be drinking again, she did end with, "I'm going to go sober again."
Also, Travis Kelce opened up about his living situation with Taylor Swift. On the podcast New Heights, Kelce said, "We've got chimneys and we've got furniture." Can't wait for that home tour!

I'll also have my colleague Jenni Fink on to talk about an exclusive chat she has with a cast member of Bravo's Summer House who has something big to reveal. But today I'm preparing for the finale of Survivor with a conversation with Shauhin Davari.

Unusual collaborations in today's world of modern music are nothing new—but some still manage to surprise. One such pairing is that of Steve Aoki, the chart-topping EDM star known for throwing cakes during his energetic sets, and Tyler Hubbard, the Georgia-born country star who spent over a decade topping charts as half of duo Florida Georgia Line.
The two artists debuted their new single in Memphis, Tennessee, at the city's RiverBeat Festival earlier this month. Following a performance that saw fans hit with Aoki's signature airborne dessert, the pair sat down for a chat with Newsweek.
"This is my first time in Memphis," Aoki shared, fresh off the stage.
