News Roundup: 50 Cent’s Revenge Doc, Warner Bros Love Triangle, & L’Oréal’s Botox Power Move

CLICK HERE TO ENTER OUR SEASON 1 LISTENER GIVEAWAY
In the final GlowJob News Roundup of Season 1, Julia & Sasa dive into the biggest beauty, business, and pop-culture stories shaping the week.
First, they break down Netflix’s $72 billion acquisition of Warner Brothers — including why Paramount stormed in with a $100B hostile bid (hello unwanted love triangle drama) and what this merger means for HBO, Harry Potter, CNN, Discovery, and the entire streaming landscape.
Next, the besties analyze L’Oréal increasing its stake in Galderma, the parent of Dysport, Restylane, Sculptra, Cetaphil, Elastin, and Differin. They discuss why L’Oréal is betting big on injectables, how Dysport compares to Botox, and why younger consumers are shifting toward “softer,” faster neurotoxins.
They also cover Summer Fridays’ GAP apparel collaboration, Saie’s partnership with the New York Knicks, and they unpack the explosive 50 Cent–produced Diddy documentary on Netflix: the leaked footage, the industry backlash, and the decades-long feud behind it.
If you love beauty news, corporate drama, M&A analysis, and pop culture deep dives, this episode has everything.

News Roundup: Is the "Clean Girl" Trend Over? Embarrassing Boyfriend and New Brands

In this week’s GlowJob news roundup, Julia & Sasa break down the beauty, business, and culture stories dominating your feeds. They kick things off with Black Friday fatigue and ask whether the clean girl aesthetic is officially dead — a debate reignited by Mikayla Nogueira and her comments in a recent Business of Fashion article.
They move into founder comebacks, analyzing Carisa Janes’ new line Outside In and Annie Kreighbaum’s Kraum, unpacking the strategy, aesthetic shifts, and what these launches reveal about the state of prestige beauty today.
Then they zoom out to global moves from the major conglomerates — including Estée Lauder’s investment in Mexican fragrance brand Xinú and L’Oréal’s expanding portfolio of Chinese beauty brands — and what it signals for the next wave of C-Beauty, Latin American innovation, and growth beyond the oversaturated U.S. market.
To close, they dig into the viral British Vogue piece “Is Having a Boyfriend Embarrassing?” and The Economist’s deep dive into the relationship recession. Equal parts beauty intel and cultural anthropology, this episode gives listeners a smarter, sharper take you won’t get anywhere else.

News Roundup: Shay Mitchell’s Rini, Dua Lipa x Bader, $1 Trillion Elon Pay

This week’s GlowJob News Roundup is pure chaos in the best way — celebrity scandals, billion-dollar power moves, and beauty industry BS getting exposed left and right.
Sasa and Julia kick things off with Shay Mitchell’s Rini kids skincare fiasco — toddler sheet masks, K-Beauty name-dropping, chemical fear-mongering, and why parents are getting played. Next, they tear into Dua Lipa’s surprise skincare line powered by Augustinus Bader, breaking down the price-per-ounce math that completely blows up Bader’s luxury mystique.
Then it gets even bigger: Kimberly Clark’s $48.7B takeover of Kenview (Neutrogena, Tylenol, Aveeno). The duo explains how misinformation, lawsuits, and shifting consumer behavior triggered one of the biggest beauty-adjacent deals in history — and why it affects literally every household in America.
Also in the mix: • Kim Kardashian not passing the California bar (and the internet meltdown that followed) • The “so bad it’s good” disaster of All’s Fair • Tesla shareholders approving a possible $1 trillion payday for Elon Musk • Coty’s earnings: fragrance domination, Kylie Cosmetics stagnation, and the looming loss of the Gucci license
If you love beauty, business, and a strong BS radar, this episode is your perfect entry point. It’s fast, fun, and packed with the industry intel people pretend they already know.
