A Bezos-Tainted Met Gala, Beyoncé's Album Theory & Francesca Fiorentini on the Voting Rights Act and Dems in 2026

About this episode

The episode discusses the Met Gala, Beyoncé's potential album announcement, and features an interview with Francesca Fiorentini on the Voting Rights Act and the upcoming midterms.

The Met Gala is Monday and the Bezoses are co-chairing: Meredith Lynch and Rebecca Sananès on why the theme is as bland as their wedding invitation, why Lauren Sanchez can't buy her way in, and Rebecca's theory that Beyoncé is dropping a rock album announcement for Act 3 on Monday. Plus: Devil Wears Prada 2 is out and it’s just not hitting the same. Then: the internet is dissecting Olivia Wilde's body again, and why we're all held to an impossible standard manufactured by iPhone filters. Then Francesca Fiorentini, comedian, MSNBC contributor and host of Bitchuation Room, on the Supreme Court gutting the Voting Rights Act, what it means for the 2026 midterms, why Trump is acting like this is the last election, and why Graham Platner vs Janet Mills in Maine feels like another John Fetterman moment. Plus: private equity is profiting from the Dilley commissary. Miss Rachel following The Moment LIVE.
