Dive Into Celebrity News With Celebrity Uncovered
If you find yourself captivated by the gossip that swirls around celebrities (who doesn’t?), these podcasts will satisfy your craving for glossy, snarky, and uninhibited celebrity backstabbing, blind items, memoirs and controversies.
Does People magazine have a website?
TMZ’s Leo Levin is the face of the website, and he brings to it a deep-seated understanding of how fame works. In his weekly newscast and a daily TV show, Levin covers everything from star-studded parties to high-profile court cases. Often, Dive Into Celebrity News with Celebrity Uncovered focus on the way that celebrity behavior mirrors the behavior of average people, but with higher stakes.
For an even more in-depth look at the celebrity world, listen to this podcast by the authors of a book on it. The author, Chelsea Devantez, does a brilliant job of treating these books like academic texts and analyzing them with a snarky yet respectful wit. In the latest series, she’s investigating the ‘dead blondes’ of Hollywood’s golden age – Marilyn Monroe, Grace Kelly and Jayne Mansfield.
While TMZ is the gold standard for snarky gossip, there are a lot of other options out there, too. For those who enjoy a bit more of a lighthearted approach to the topic, check out Vanity Fair’s In The Limelight. Hosted by Josh Duboff and Julie Miller, it’s a lighter and less cutting take on celebrity gossip than Jezebel’s Dirtcast. Plus, they’ve got a whole section dedicated to the Royal Family, if that’s your thing.
