The Unsettling Story Behind Rihanna’s Ba...

MAMAMIA PODCASTS
About this episode

On the show today…

In TV news, The Project has revealed its full lineup of new hosts for 2023, following the departures of Carrie Bickmore, Lisa Wilkinson, and Peter Helliar. Here’s who you’ll see sitting at the desk next year.

Plus, the first trailer for Greta Gerwig’s Barbie movie, starring Margot Robbie, has been released and it surprisingly has ties to a pretty traumatic and famous sci-fi movie. It’s not the mash-up we were expecting, but now we have a pretty good idea of how the movie’s plot will unfold.

And the whole world was cooing over the weekend after we got our first glimpse at Rihanna and ASAP Rocky’s new baby boy. But now the real story of why the image was shared has come to light, and it says something pretty dark about where paparazzi culture is going.

THE END BITS
