00:00Hey, it's People in 10, and karma is a guy on the chiefs, going home with T-Swift at

00:094am.

00:10That's how late these two partied together in London, after Travis made his surprise

00:14debut on stage at the Heiress Tour.

00:16I mean, even Taylor was swooning over her man up there.

00:20He's got those acting chops for sure.

00:22But that actually wasn't the first time she posted him this week.

00:25They went Insta-official with this epic selfie with Prince William, Prince George, and Princess

00:30Charlotte.

00:31You know, casual.

00:32British and American royalty at its finest.

00:36Mindy Kaling was already mom of two goals.

00:39But now, surprise, she's got three, with baby Anne joining the squad.

00:43She made the big reveal the day she turned 45, which was so sweet.

00:47She called it the best birthday present.

00:50And this isn't the first time she shocked us.

00:52Her first pregnancy news came out of nowhere too.

00:55Pretty sneaky, sis!

00:56Baby Anne joins 6-year-old Kit and 3-year-old Spencer.

00:59And before you ask, Mindy's never revealed who the father was for those pregnancies,

01:04and she didn't for this baby either.

01:07And that's not all the baby news this week.

01:09Elon Musk confirmed he welcomed his 12th child earlier this year, meaning these two are neck

01:14and neck.

01:15Come on, step it up, Nick.

01:16You haven't had a kid since 2022.

01:17I'm just kidding.

01:18So this is Elon's third child with Siobhan Zillis.

01:23We don't know the name and gender, and honestly, we may never, because he likes to keep his

01:28kids' lives private.

01:29Respect!

01:30The fastest woman alive is finally headed to the Olympics.

01:35Sha'Carri Richardson sprinted the women's 100-meter race in just 10.71 seconds, securing

01:40her spot at the Paris Games.

01:41The qualifying finish came after she tripped over her untied shoelace the night before,

01:47just as she was coming out the blocks.

01:48But of course, my girl didn't just recover.

01:51She finished strong, beating all five of her competitors.

01:54Yes, Sha'Carri, our queen of the track.

01:58The Olympics don't even start till the end of July, but there's already drama brewing

02:02and some beef between the USA and Australia.

02:06Let's find out what happened.

02:07Hey, Mako.

02:08What's up?

02:09Hey, Sean.

02:10OK, so Australian swimmer Kate Campbell didn't qualify to go to the Paris Games, but a lot

02:16of athletes didn't.

02:17So why are we talking about her specifically?

02:20Well, Kate was hoping to become the first Australian swimmer to compete in five consecutive

02:24Olympic Games.

02:26But at the trials, she came in seventh place during the 100 meters and she failed to qualify.

02:30And why Americans care so much is because she had recently caught the ire of swimming

02:34legend Michael Phelps for this interview she did last year.

02:37Wait, wait, why?

02:39So there's this post-race interview at the 2023 World Championships where Australia had

02:44won more gold medals than Team USA.

02:46And in that interview, Kate had said that while it was great Australia came out on top,

02:51it made it so much sweeter beating America.

02:54She also admitted that she was happy to not have to hear the Star-Spangled Banner anymore.

02:58And she even gloated, bring on Paris.

03:00That's all I have to say.

03:01Well, that is some karma because she isn't going to Paris now, is she?

03:05OK, so Michael Phelps thought, what was his reaction?

03:09He pretty much shook his head and said he'd lose it if someone said that to him.

03:13And he also said that he'd make them eat every word that they just said.

03:16Kate was actually a good sport about it in the end, and she said that's what makes the

03:20sport great, all the trash talking, and I guess the competitive spirit.

03:24She's also said trash talking never hurt anyone.

03:26Let's see how Team Australia fares against Team USA.

03:29Thank you for the deets, Sean.

03:32Awesome, no problem.

03:33See you later.

03:34Bye.

03:35Don't freak out, we have a big update for you.

03:37Freaky Friday 2 is filming, y'all, as we speak.

03:42You know, 20 years later, this still gives me all the warm and fuzzies.

03:47And Lindsey looks great, doesn't she?

03:49We're so rooting for her and cannot wait to watch.

03:53Justin Timberlake is back to work after a little brush with the law, aka that DUI in

03:58the Hamptons, you know, the one that was going to ruin the tour.

04:01But apparently it's not ruined because this week, JT played at Madison Square Garden in

04:06New York City, and he gave a shout out to the Knicks with his merch.

04:09Got y'all's Knicks colors.

04:11We had to do it.

04:13While some welcomed him back, others had some ideas, including this fan who's waiting for

04:18this is going to ruin the tour merch, and this one who wants shirts with his mug shot

04:23on them.

04:24You know what?

04:25Maybe they're on to something.

04:28It's been hot in New York City lately, and I'm blaming Lupita Nyong'o, who brought the

04:32heat to the Empire State Building this week.

04:35Can we take a quick second to appreciate the fit from head to toe?

04:39The shades, the tuxedo jacket, that iced out necklace with the briefs and fishnets.

04:44Lou for sure lit up the landmark, all while promoting a quiet place day one.

04:49But this look ain't keeping us quiet, honey.

04:52Oh no.

04:54Worlds collided this week as Japan's Emperor and Empress touched down in London for a state

04:59visit with King Charles and his royal fam.

05:01But Empress Masako wore an unexpected accessory.

05:05A face mask outside while sitting next to Queen Camilla on a carriage ride.

05:09Then she took it off when she got inside Buckingham Palace.

05:12So what's the deal?

05:14Turns out she's actually allergic to horses.

05:17Mystery solved.

05:18We understand.

05:19And so does Prince Louis.

05:22Now it's the sit down with Idina Menzel.

05:24Hi Idina.

05:25The Queen of Broadway is here.

05:32Congrats on your new Take Me or Leave Me tour.

05:35What makes now the perfect time to hit the road and the high notes?

05:38Oh, you're so sweet.

05:40It's been a long time since I've been on the road.

05:42It's been like eight years.

05:44So I've been chomping at the bit to get back out there and connect with my audience.

05:49I have a lot of new stories to tell.

05:51I have new ideas and arrangements for the songs that I'm known for.

05:56So I'm excited.

05:58This live performance is, I think, my most favorite place to be.

06:03You know we gotta ask, right?

06:05The Wicked movie is coming out this fall.

06:08You're green.

06:09I am.

06:12And you're the OG Elphaba.

06:14So Idina, what does it feel like to see something so close to you carry on through generations?

06:20It means a great deal to me.

06:21I have a huge sense of pride about it having been a part of its creation and watching it,

06:32seeing it touch so many people's lives and to be able to sort of pass the torch to people

06:40that I love on a personal level and professional level.

06:45But yeah, it's mostly about sort of being in this family for so long and knowing what

06:51we went through to get it to where it is.

06:54It's just a very special, special thing.

06:57Have you talked to the new Elphaba, the amazing Cynthia Erivo?

07:00I mean, yeah, we talk all the time.

07:03I just, you know, give her my love and support and just try to remind her to enjoy the process

07:09actually because I think sometimes that gets by us when we're working hard and we want

07:14something to be good and we sort of forget to enjoy things.

07:17So I was just trying to remind her of that.

07:20But I wasn't giving her any advice as to how to play the role or anything like that because

07:24she is a supreme actress and she should do her own thing with it.

07:29Or maybe how to get the green makeup off.

07:31I told her a little bit about that.

07:32What did you say?

07:33What's the trick?

07:34Because sometimes my makeup don't come off.

07:35What's the trick?

07:36The trick is this Neutrogena soap, a very specific one.

07:40And the one that comes in like a pump and is orange looking seems to be the only one

07:45that really works.

07:47Now Adina, between you and I, you wouldn't happen to tease a collab-o now, would you?

07:54Um, you know, if I told you anything about that, I'd have to kill you, so.

07:59All right, let's move on.

08:00Any insights you can share at all for Frozen 3?

08:02No, I can just tell you that I've been told that there's going to be a Frozen 3 and 4

08:08and that makes me very happy because I love working with my posse.

08:14I can't believe it's been 10 years since you unleashed Let It Go on us.

08:17Let it go, let it go, can't hold it back anymore.

08:25Looking back on your career, and I really mean this, did you ever think that you would

08:28make your mark in pop culture history so many times?

08:32I think about it when someone like you says it like that.

08:35And that makes me very proud.

08:38I don't realize it at the time because nothing that ever becomes that kind of phenomenon

08:43seems that obvious.

08:45Probably because they're always, it's something that's different and unexpected, which is

08:50what gives it its power, but you don't see it coming.

08:53How's Walker?

08:54I cannot believe he's 14.

08:56Great.

08:57He's a teenager, but he still hugs me once in a while, so that's, you know, I'll take

09:02that.

09:03What surprises me is just how mercurial it is.

09:06One minute, you know, they want nothing to do with you, and the next minute, they really

09:10show you how much they need you, and so you have to be on your toes and be willing to

09:15get out of their way.

09:16You have to cut out of your own way, and not take things too personally, and know that

09:21they feel your love, but also they need their space.

09:24Okay, we're going to put 10 seconds on the clock, promote any one of your projects.

09:28Ready?

09:29Go.

09:30I'm going to promote my new musical that I'm very excited about.

09:34I've been working on it.

09:35It's called Redwood.

09:36I've been working on it for 15 years, and it's finally coming to fruition, and I will

09:40be singing songs from Redwood on the tour as well, to get everybody's palettes wet for

09:46that.

09:47Idina, thank you so much for being here today.

09:49Thank you so much.
