💛🚴‍♂️ This week on T minus 20, we offer you a yellow bracelet and a whole lot of controversy. Lance Armstrong’s Livestrong bracelets were the hottest accessory, sported by celebs from Eva Mendes to Tom Hanks, but beneath the yellow silicone lay a storm of doping allegations. We dive into the French exposé “LA Confidentiel” and Armstrong’s fiery denials as he pedalled his way to a record sixth Tour de France win.
🔫🕵️‍♂️ Jason Bourne is back and more badass than ever. Matt Damon reprises his role as the amnesiac assassin, dodging bullets and unraveling conspiracies. Relive and reminisce about the sequel that had audiences on the edge of their seats.
🍔😂 Grab your munchies and join Harold and Kumar on their epic quest for the perfect burger in "Harold & Kumar Go to White Castle." Kal Penn and John Cho take us on a hilarious ride filled with absurd adventures, including a wild cameo by Neil Patrick Harris. We’ll chat about how this stoner comedy became a cult classic and why it still makes us laugh out loud.
📺💰 Trevor Butler snags the biggest cash prize in Aussie TV history, winning Aussie Big Brother. We take a look back at the 2004 season highlights, the iconic housemates and *that* Merlin eviction.
📚🇺🇸 As if we haven’t had enough of politics lately, we dive into the pages of Bill Clinton's blockbuster autobiography "My Life." This 1,008-page behemoth offers a candid look at the 42nd President’s journey from a small-town boy to the leader of the free world.
