Coffee brewing talk: everything you need to know this morning

Harry and Meghan, Adele and Erica Meiland

You blink three times and you miss half of the news in showbiz land. No worries, I got you covered. Do you also want to be able to chat at the coffee machine? This is what you need to know.

This photo of Adele rubs her followers the wrong way
Now I probably think: Adele's intention wasn't bad. No, she's performing this year just like many artists at Notting Hill Carnival and yes, it's understandable to be a bit upset about that. I can also understand posting an Instagram post to honor the festival. But her looks in the photo, that's what the internet is reacting to.

A post shared by Adele (@adele) at

We see Adele in a bikini with a Jamaican flag, a yellow feather collar, and Bantu knots.
With this traditional African hairstyle, the hair is secured in small buns on the head. Many fans are now accusing the singer of cultural appropriation. Because Adele is not African and does not have black hair, her followers find it inappropriate to adopt this hairstyle ‘for fashion’. Adele has not yet responded to the controversy.

Uh oh: the neighbors are already fed up with Harry and Meghan
In the American Montecito, the residents are somewhat used to paparazzi. I mean: Oprah Winfrey lives there, just like Ellen DeGeneres. But still, the arrival of Harry and Meghan is really shaking things up. TMZ reports that the locals are far from happy with the constant noise from flying helicopters, day-trippers, and intrusive photographers. Every photographer naturally wants that first photo of the couple, preferably with son Archie. The photographers ‘hang out’ all day in the villa neighborhood or at the nearby shopping center. And there are tourists there too, who in turn ask where the ex-royals live to take a look at the house. Meine gute. At moments like this, you really start to wonder how stupid being famous really is?

Oh, and also funny: Erica's new look from Chateau Meiland is going viral
Oh yes, the Meiland family is back in business. Last night was the first episode again, a real treat. This time it wasn't flamboyant castle lord Martien who stole the show, but Erica. And specifically: her new round glitter sunglasses that got people talking on Twitter. What. A. Hysterical. Thing.
