How you say in English… grifter? Hilaria Baldwin (née Hillary Heyward-Thomas) is now infamous for purporting to be a Spanish person, but that’s just the beginning of her truly loco lore.
Welcome back to the best day of the week! Christy and Sophie have a LOT to discuss, including the VS Fashion Show (and Kylie Jenner’s runway walk), Taylor Swift and Kim Kardashian apparently burying the hatchet, Val Chmerkovskiy’s latest DWTS controversy, the new season of “Love Is Blind” and the dire state of affairs in Boston, Miley Cyrus, Selena Gomez, and soooooo much more.
From Disney darling to A-list popstar to billionaire mogul, today’s subject has lived many, many lives — with her fair share of controversial moments through it all. Good thing she arguably has the best PR team of all time.
Christy and Sophie are BACK with another DET — this time diving into Kelly Clarkson’s beef with a Brooklyn magic store, Erin Lichy on RHONY, Bailey Taylor v. Dave Portnoy (team Bailey), Alix Earle and our post-literate society, and more.
One of Bachelor Nation’s biggest stars and golden boys was somehow never the lead himself — but has *milked* his reality TV fame for all its worth.
