Insta Creep: So RuPaul, Michelle Obama And Adele All Hung Out At The Weekend…
What all the celebs are up to on social, from A to Z listers.
In our gossip column, we indulge our nosiest desires and delve deep into what the celebs (and ‘celebs’) are doing on social media. Who’s tweeting and deleting? Who’s shady faving? Let’s find out.

RuPaul, Michelle Obama, and Adele hung out in London over the weekend. OK, we love this.
M’Obama was in town to promote her memoir Becoming – she was interviewed by Stephen Colbert in the city’s O2 Arena, and two of the 15,000 people in attendance were RuPaul and Adele.
Gay Star News reports that the drag legend was in London to film Drag Race UK, which is due to hit our screens sometime this year. There’s now speculation that Adele might be one of the guest judges (she’s a fan of drag, clearly, judging by her recent night out with Jennifer Lawrence).

There’s so much power in that photo RuPaul shared. What did they talk about? Did they stay up all night drinking wines? Did they start a WhatsApp group to send each other pics from the evening? WE NEED TO KNOW.
Laura Whitmore did a bit of topless hot-tubbing – and wouldn’t you if you had your own private one?
The presenter and boyfriend Iain Stirling are currently on a romantic little break down the country, lounging in bed and feeding each other grapes (according to her Insta Stories anyway).
Their luxurious hotel room features its own private hot tub, which Laura is making full use of.
Of course, because you can’t just exist as a woman on the internet, one follower had to stick the oar in, commenting: “Look at me, LOOK AT ME! Sad really.”
Laura quickly explained the whole point of social media to them:
Yes look at pictures of ME on MY Instagram page. Maybe spend more time being productive and positive in your own life. Have a great day.
Why are people? Enjoy your hot tubbing Laura. Don’t MIND them.
We always knew Taylor Swift was detail-oriented, but this just knocks everything out of the park.
For the past week or so, Taylor has been teasing something due to drop on April 26 – it could be music, it could be a clothing line, it could be a new cat… we don’t know, but it’s probably going to be a single.
This date was not randomly chosen. On January 1, when her Netflix concert film was released, the official TSwift fan account tweeted a message full of rainbow emojis:
…. another 2019 big mood: 🌈🌈🌈🌈🌈🌈🌈🌈🌈🌈🌈🌈🌈🌈🌈🌈🌈🌈🌈🌈🌈🌈🌈🌈🌈🌈🌈🌈🌈🌈🌈🌈🌈🌈🌈🌈🌈🌈🌈🌈🌈🌈🌈🌈🌈🌈🌈🌈🌈🌈🌈🌈🌈🌈🌈🌈🌈🌈🌈🌈🌈🌈🌈🌈🌈🌈🌈🌈🌈🌈🌈🌈🌈🌈🌈🌈🌈🌈🌈🌈🌈🌈🌈🌈🌈🌈🌈🌈🌈🌈🌈🌈🌈🌈🌈🌈🌈🌈🌈🌈🌈🌈🌈🌈🌈🌈🌈🌈🌈🌈🌈🌈🌈🌈🌈 #repTourNewYearsDay

Fans have now realised that the tweet contains exactly 115 emojis, which is relevant because there are 115 days from January 1 to April 26. Taylor, PLEASE.
So far, this era seems to be doing a complete 180 from the darker themes of the Reputation album – she’s posting lots of butterflies, rainbows, and pastel shades.
It’s all a bit sickly sweet, but we’ll see Friday week what it all means, won’t we?
The directors and stars of the final Avengers film have appealed to fans not to spoil it for others. Footage from Endgame has leaked online, and evidently, their feathers have been ruffled.
In an open letter posted on Instagram, directors Joe and Anthony Russo asked for fans to “help” them protect the ending:
“When you see Endgame in the coming weeks, please don’t spoil it for others, the same way you wouldn’t want it spoiled for you,” they wrote. “Remember, Thanos [the big baddie from the final two films] still demands your silence.”
You heard them. Shh.
