She's a freak, she's a genius, I f**king love her.
Alex & Jordy attended the Melbourne premiere of "Naked Gun" & we HAVE to talk about the SNOWMAN. Alex is convinced that the rumored Liam Neeson–Pam Anderson romance is all PR but Jordy wants to believe it's real. What are your thoughts?We then dive into Taylor Swift’s appearance Travis Kelce's pod & her new albums tagline which is delightfully similar to the name of this very podcast. Naturally, Jordy thinks we should be first choice for any Australian media around the album, but Alex doesn't think she's worthy.Alex accidentally spoiled the results of "MasterChef Australia" but they'll never guess who her source was & Jordy brings a show & tell album from her past to share with the class.Follow us on socials for more @thatsshowbizbaby.pod Hosted on Acast.

Fame comes at a price, how much are you willing to pay?
These 2 bitter old hags have been out & have thoughts to share on Nikki Glaser's Australian tour as well as the Dolly Parton musical, Here You Come Again. In an unexpected turn of events, Alex now has BEEF with The Project socials after they UNFOLLOWED her on Instagram (rude). The universe continues to serve bullshit on a silver platter to Alex as two ex-MAFS men have made contact on Bumble & Instagram alike. We seriously can't make this up...Speaking of MAFS, we both agree that contestants should NOT be invited to The Logies...or on our podcast (with the exception of Evelyn). In our opinion, The Logies is a sacred event for Australian television. No unhinged reality contestants should be allowed to roam free among TV royalty on their night of nights, okay?We discuss the price that comes with fame and how much we're willing to pay. Jordy reminisces on the HUGE price she paid for turning down a job in America but don't worry, she has no regrets & wouldn't rather be anywhere else than with our showbies.Finally, Jordy is wanting to act again & we're taking you on the ride. Who knows what (if anything) will happen, but she's posted about it on socials, so at least has to make an attempt. STAY TUNED!Join us LIVE on socials this SUNDAY as we tune into The Logies from Alex' house! We'll be frocked up with a wine in hand, ready to commentate from the comfort of Alex' couch.

Celebrity weddings, aggressive news & defining 'fame' in 2025
Back from a 2 week hiaitus, Jordy & Alex sit down to discuss Ten News Plus, the seemingly unpopular replacement of The Project. We read out your feedback, which critiques the serious (and aggressive?!) tone, lack of host chemistry, and poor ratings. We discuss GEN-Z/influencer culture after overhearing some eye opening conversations at the Barbie Malibu Cafe in Chadstone & question whether over-exposing yourself on the internet = talent.Also on the agenda: celebrity weddings, the changing nature of fame in the digital age, highlighting how social media and built-in audiences now shape success in entertainment and publishing.

Trolls: express your opinion, but be prepared for retaliation (mainly from Alex)
This week we discuss the latest entertainment news, including updates on the Alex V Lizzo feud, our mission to get Mark Holden on the pod and some listener feedback (SPOILER ALERT: we're running ads & you need to SUCK IT UP PRINCESS!) We review season 2 of America's Sweethearts, the Netflix docu-series focussing on the Dallas Cowboys Chearleaders & celebrate the 400% pay increase for THE LADIES!!!We also explore the idea of celebrity authenticity (is that an oxymoron?), public scrutiny and question what constitutes online bullying. Should influencers be prepared for some level of scrutiny if they share their lives online? Where is the line between opinion and hate? Jordy & Alex certainly have different views on trolls and how we tackle the issue, but one thing we can agree on is that being nasty is supremely UNCOOL. So play nice, okay?Follow @thatsshowbizbaby.pod on socials for more Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

'I was stalked by Hollywood papparazzi & I still don't know why': Jordy recounts being papped on the streets of LA
The Project has been axed and in a cruel twist, the hosts & crew must show up on the desk till June 27th. Jordy relives a similar experience of having to shoot for 6 weeks at Neighbours, knowing she was being written out... AWKWARD.Alex sheds a tear for her former workplace before we reminisce on some of the more memorable moments from The Projects' 16 years on our screens.We've got an update on Jojo Siwa and Chris Hughes' relationship and it appears as though Jordy may have to eat her words. Is this relationship real or a PR stunt? Jordy recounts the time she was hounded by papparazzi in Hollywood and we've unearthed the footage, thanks to Getty. Exactly why the paps were stalking her on the streets of LA is still a mystery. Finally, as if beef with Lizzo wasn't enough, Alex' feathers have been ruffled after content thieves refused to credit (AND TAG) her as their source. The lesson to be learned is, don't listen to other pods for showbiz news, just come straight to us.Follow us on socials @thatsshowbizbaby.pod Hosted on Acast.
