Singer/Songwriter Mika joins Gaby for a chat about all things joy. He tells the story of watching Wicked with the composer Stephen Schwartz and singing with Ariana Grande. After seven years, he's back with new music, and wants to spread joy through his live shows. They talk about Mika's childhood, and how his mother 'collected' people - bringing lots of amazing characters into their home to live - and how they actually inspired some of his songs on his first album. (if you look at the video for 'Grace Kelly' - you'll see them!) Mika listens to birdsong regularly - sometimes in the garden, but also to playlists of tropical creatures. Did you know birdsong is medicine for your brain? When you hear birdsong, it means there's no trouble around! (you learn something everyday don't you!) Mika is a real joy spreader and so full of life and energy! We hope you feel a little of that energy after listening to this episode...

Pol' Atteu and Patrik Simpson celebrate a milestone episode of Undressed with Pol' & Patrik, broadcasting for the first time from their brand-new West Hollywood studio, before diving headfirst into a fearless, unfiltered 2026 Golden Globes red-carpet breakdown. The episode opens with SnowBuBu love, Armenian coffee cup reading reminders, and Pol's signature fashion education as the duo identifies this year's dominant trends: minimalism, sheer “naked” dressing, metallics, sculptural tailoring, and statement diamonds. From there, the gloves come off. Pol' and Patrik critique the night's biggest looks, hits, and misfires—debating Owen Cooper's Bottega Veneta, Patrick Schwarzenegger's Dolce & Gabbana tux, and Zoë Kravitz's Saint Laurent nightgown-meets-Easter-tablecloth moment. Fashion triumphs shine with Teyana Taylor in Schiaparelli Haute Couture, ultimately crowned Best Dressed of the Night, praised for commanding the carpet with confidence, movement, and flawless execution. The runway rundown spans standout and controversial appearances from Nikki Glaser (Zuhair Murad), Natasha Lyonne, Amy Lou Wood, Alex Cooper (Gucci), Amelia Gray (Swarovski), Amy Poehler, Ariana Grande (custom Vivienne Westwood couture), Pamela Anderson, Parker Posey, Queen Latifah (Gaurav Gupta), Timothée Chalamet, Walton Goggins, Maya Rudolph, Kristen Bell, Chloë Zhao, and a universally praised Jennifer Lopez in vintage Jean-Louis Scherrer. One of the night's biggest surprises? Connor Storrie (Heated Rivalry), named Best Dressed Man, wearing Saint Laurent with Tiffany & Co. jewelry, earning praise for immaculate tailoring, confidence, and star-making presence. The episode wraps with Pol' and Patrik's final verdicts—celebrating fashion that elevates the event and calling out looks that missed the mark—delivering couture insight, pop-culture commentary, and laugh-out-loud banter that defines Undressed.

This week is a lot, so naturally, we unpack all of it. From the alleged RFK Jr. messages that should've stayed private, to the passing of Alex Pretti in Minneapolis following an encounter with federal agents that has sparked protests, outrage, and ongoing questions. We break down record deportations affecting Cuban communities in Florida, Trump's threat of massive tariffs on French wine and champagne, and France fast-tracking a social media ban for kids under 15. Amazon is cutting thousands of corporate jobs, TikTok is collecting even more user data, and the U.S. nightlife and alcohol scene is quietly collapsing. We also dig into cold-weather tragedies impacting unhoused New Yorkers, Delroy Lindo being mischaracterized in an interview, anonymous Oscar voters shading Ariana Grande, Brooklyn Beckham calling out his parents, Skai Jackson's baby daddy sentencing, Nicki Minaj vs. Don Lemon, and Cardi B going off over a football pick. Same chaos, new episode. IG: itswista SubStack: wordswithwista

Sinners received 16 nominations; a record-breaking nomination count for the most in Academy Awards history. The supernatural thriller received nominations for best picture; director (Ryan Coogler); actor (Michael B. Jordan); supporting actress (Wunmi Mosaku); actor in a supporting role (Delroy Lindo); and original screenplay. Timothée Chalamet is 30 years and 26 days old, Chalamet just became the youngest male actor to receive three Oscar nominations since Marlon Brando, who achieved this feat at age 29 in 1954. Steven Spielberg has broken his own record for the most Oscar nominations as a producer, bringing his total to 14 with the nomination for Best Picture for the film "Hamnet." One Battle After Another received 13 nods, including Best Picture.The Snubs:The Cold Shoulder: The Biggest Snubs of the 2026 Oscar NominationsThe Wicked Witch of the West... Gone?The biggest shocker of the morning has to be the complete erasure of Wicked: For Good. Just last year, the first installment picked up 10 nominations. This year? Zero. Zilch.Ariana Grande and Cynthia Erivo, who were both nominated for the first film, were completely shut out of the acting categories. Even the music branch turned its back on the franchise, ignoring the two new songs written specifically for the film. It seems the magic ran out for the sequel.Paul Mescal's Shakespearean TragedyIf you were betting on Paul Mescal picking up a nomination for playing William Shakespeare in Hamnet, you lost money today. While the film itself did well—and his co-star Jessie Buckley secured a nomination—Mescal was noticeably absent from the list. It's a tough break for an actor who has been a darling of the awards circuit lately.The Strange Case of Chase InfinitiHere is a genuine head-scratcher: One Battle After Another is a massive favorite, racking up 13 nominations. Yet, its breakout lead actress, Chase Infiniti, didn't make the cut. Some insiders think her limited screen time (she's in the movie for about 30 minutes) might have hurt her chances, but considering she's the heart of the film, her absence in the Best Actress category is glaring.Guillermo del Toro Gets the "Argo" TreatmentThe Academy clearly loved Netflix's Frankenstein—it scored nine nominations, including Best Picture. But they apparently didn't love Guillermo del Toro quite enough to give him a Best Director nod. The Directors branch is notoriously finicky, and this year, they left the beloved filmmaker off the list.Blockbuster FatigueAvatar: Fire and Ash failed to secure a Best Picture nomination, a category the previous two films sailed into easily. It seems voters might finally be feeling some Pandora fatigue.Star Power Didn't Save ThemBeing an A-lister didn't help anyone this morning.George Clooney & Adam Sandler: Their film Jay Kelly was completely shut out. Usually, a Noah Baumbach movie is catnip for voters, but this one came up empty.Dwayne "The Rock" Johnson: Despite a serious campaign for his dramatic turn in The Smashing Machine, he couldn't crack the lineup.Jennifer Lawrence: She gave a ferocious performance in Die My Love, but the film was likely too gritty and indie for the broader voting body.The show, hosted by Conan O'Brien, airs live on ABC on March 15th.

It's the first major snow storm of 2026 and it's causing panic across the country! 200 million Americans are in the path. People are preparing - clearing store shelves, grabbing food and other essentials.  As Steven Fabian reports, meteorologists predict this will be one for the history books. And is this daredevil flirting with disaster? An acclaimed rock climber is about to climb one of the tallest skyscrapers in the world - without any ropes or protective gear. Plus, It's no secret that President Trump dislikes the late night hosts - who often make him the target of their zingers. Well that battle is now taking a new turn. And if you thought Ariana Grande and Cynthia Erivo were shoo-ins to get Oscar nominations this year - think again!

From Kim Kardashian, J.Lo, and Ariana Grande, Chris Appleton has styled the biggest names in Hollywood, but his journey getting there was not easy. Today, Chris opens up about the hustle it took to go from a small-town salon in the UK to red carpets, and the bumps in the road along the way. Chris shares the financial trauma, internal battles, and deep personal work it took to get to the top—and stay there. He gets vulnerable about the struggles behind the success: coming out after being in a heterosexual relationship, the breakthrough moment with Christina Aguilera that allowed him to beat his imposter syndrome, and why the word “fine” isn't in his vocabulary.

You’ve seen Chris Appleton’s work on Kim Kardashian, Jennifer Lopez, and Ariana Grande—but his story goes beyond the red carpet. Chris joins Martha Stewart to talk about the journey from his humble roots in a sleepy English village to red carpets around the world. Along the way, he learned about beauty and the power of transformation, lessons he shares in his new book Your Roots Don’t Define You. Listen to that here - plus essential advice for beautiful, healthy hair!See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Hey Heal Squad! Today Chris Appleton is with Maria and if you thought you knew his story… think again. Beyond the exterior of being a celebrity hairstylist (he's worked on some of the most iconic women in the world like Jennifer Lopez, Kim Kardashian, and Ariana Grande), Chris is opening up about a side of his life the world has rarely heard. In this episode, Chris goes deep into the generational trauma, childhood labels, and bullying that shaped him at age six, and the years he spent abandoning himself in order to perform for the world. He also speaks candidly about the night he tried to take his life after coming out: a moment that was both devastating and, shockingly, the beginning of his reinvention. But Chris's story doesn't end there. He was rescued, and that moment became his second chance to live authentically. This is all detailed in his new book, Your Roots Don't Define You, and reminds all of us that becoming who you really are is always worth the fight. If you're on your own path of  transformation, this is a must-listen. Just a heads up, it's a very honest and vulnerable conversation, so please listen with care.  HEALERS & HEAL-LINERS:  Reinvention Begins With Returning to Yourself: Chris reminded us that reinvention is about going back to the version of yourself you've abandoned & real transformation begins when we choose to see ourselves without apology.  How to Break Generational Patterns: Trauma can get passed down quietly through silence, survival, and emotional suppression. But healing can move forward through awareness, therapy, and refusing to live by the labels you were given. It can stop with YOU!

Women's bodies are not a trend and they're not up for public debate.With the release of Wicked: Part Two, conversations about the bodies of its stars, including Ariana Grande and Cynthia Erivo have flooded social media, framed as “concern,” “health,” or “what about our daughters?”In this episode, we unpack why commenting on women's bodies (even when it sounds caring) is still harmful, why women's bodies keep getting treated as public property, and what this moment reveals about where culture is headed.We talk about:Why “concern” doesn't make body commentary ethicalWhy health is not something you can seeWhy women's bodies are never trendsHow these conversations actually impact young girlsWhat we can say instead to our kids, our friends, and ourselvesThis is not a conversation about celebrities' bodies.It's a conversation about our language, our trauma, and our responsibility to do better.If this episode made you pause, reflect, or rethink your language, share it with someone you love. This is how culture actually changes.This episode contains brief clips from Wicked used for commentary and discussion.

"Wicked: For Good" is a musical fantasy sequel directed by Jon M. Chu that adapts the second act of the "Wicked" stage musical, itself inspired by Gregory Maguire's reimagining of "The Wizard of Oz." Starring returning cast members Ariana Grande, Cynthia Erivo, Jonathan Bailey, and others, the film follows Elphaba and Glinda as they embrace their identities as the Wicked Witch of the West and Glinda the Good. Developed over a decade and split into two films to preserve the story's depth, production faced delays due to the pandemic and the 2023 SAG-AFTRA strike. Released by Universal Pictures in November 2025, the film grossed $523 million worldwide, earned awards recognition from the Critics' Choice Awards and the Golden Globes, and was named one of the top ten films of the year by both the National Board of Review and the American Film Institute. Ever since its release, the Next Best Picture team has been conducting a series of interviews with many people involved in the making of the film, which we're proud to share with you below. First up, we have my interview with the film's director Jon M. Chu, followed Cody Dericks's interview with casting directors Tiffany Little Canfield & Bernard Telsey, then we have my intervew with the film's editor Myron Kerstein, followed by Cody's interview with makeup & hair designer Frances Hannon, then Dan Bayer's interview with sound mixer Simon Hayes, and then we end with Cody's interview with visual effects supervisor Pablo Helman. Please be sure to check out the film, which is now available to rent or own digitally or on physical media from Universal Pictures, and is up for your consideration for this year's Academy Awards in all eligible categories.
