Insta Creep: Jennifer Aniston Joined Instagram And Promptly Broke It…
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.
Just FYI, in case you missed it, Jennifer Aniston is on Instagram now, and her first post featured all the Friends.
Love the idea that the rest of them all had to wait for her to join before they could share the pics of their meetup. Such is her power.
People were so excited by Jen’s arrival that it basically broke Instagram – loads of users were unable to follow her for hours (but it didn’t stop this writer from trying approximately five million times a minute).
She also went on a commenting spree, leaving messages for her pals Courteney Cox, Matt LeBlanc, and Reese Witherspoon.
We don’t know why this is so exciting, but it is. Welcome to Insta, Jen!
Jane the Virgin actress Gina Rodriguez is in hot water for saying the n-word on her Instagram Story.
Gina filmed herself rapping along to The Fugees’ Ready Or Not… including a line in which Lauryn Hill sings the n-word (which people who are not black have no business doing).

After being called out on Twitter, she deleted the video and posted an apology:
I am sorry if I offended anyone by singing along to The Fugees, to a song I love, that I grew up on. I love Lauryn Hill. And I really am sorry if I offended you.
However, this apology only did more damage, as people felt it was ‘insincere’ or even sarcastic. Gina followed up with a more lengthy statement about the misstep:
This isn’t the first time the actress has been criticised for racial insensitivity – in 2018, she made a clumsy comment about the pay gap, arguing that black actresses get paid more than Latina actresses. Dangerous territory.

Kylie Jenner fans think she’s already back with Travis Scott. And they say they have receipts!
The couple only announced their split a few weeks ago, but fans are suspecting they’ve changed their minds after they popped up in each other’s Insta Stories.
In a video of baby Stormi posted on Travis’ Story, a female voice that sounds a lot like Kylie can be heard in the background:
E! News also reports that they spent the day together at Kylie’s home on Sunday, with a source saying it looked as if “nothing has changed with them”.
Could it be that they’re just being good co-parents to Stormi? Is the answer that simple? Probably, but the gossip hounds would never believe it.
And now it’s time for… #WilloughbyWatch
Charting the public’s obsession with what Holly Willoughby is wearing.
This morning on This Morning, Holly is wearing a cute little midi dress from Finery London, which we unfortunately cannot locate online but there are some similar offerings on their website (and the prices are not too bad).
But it has pleased her rabid following, who are falling over themselves to tell her how lovely she looks. Is she having a good run of it at the moment? Long may it continue.
