The Oscars served… elementary school lunch? People are absolutely roasting the food at this year's Academy Awards, with viewers comparing the snacks to sad cafeteria trays from fifth grade field trips. "My elementary school field trip lunches were better than this" is the quote heard round the internet, and honestly, the photos back it up. Hollywood's biggest night, catered by your local public school district apparently.

Zara Larsson's concert moment is EVERYWHERE. A fan got pulled up to sing "Lush Life" at Zara's Denver tour stop and the TikTok has exploded — 30 million views and 6 million likes. The kind of wholesome viral moment the internet needed this week.

Music

Harry Styles just keeps winning. His new album Kiss All the Time. Disco, Occasionally. (yes, that's the real title and we love the chaos of it) debuted at No. 1, making it his fourth consecutive album to do so. The man could release an album of him humming and it would chart.

Ab-Soul dropped new heat. "WILDER ROCC" featuring David Banner just hit, produced by Rockwilder. TDE fans, your boy is feeding you.

Captain Beefheart's Trout Mask Replica is making the rounds again on r/Music because that album will simply never stop confusing and delighting people in equal measure. As it should.

Movies & TV

"One Battle After Another" dominated the Oscars with six wins, while Sinners snagged four — making it a massive night for Warner Bros. The ceremony itself? Variety called it "tasteful and overly safe," which is critic-speak for "fine but kind of boring." Just enough suspense to keep people from switching to Netflix mid-broadcast.

Autumn Durald Arkapaw made Oscar history as the first woman to win Best Cinematography for Sinners. Genuinely historic and long overdue. The DP girlies are thriving.

Norway got its first-ever Best International Feature Film Oscar with Joachim Trier's Sentimental Value. The whole country is celebrating, and if you loved The Worst Person in the World, this one's already on your list.

Korea's The King's Warden is an absolute juggernaut — 13 million admissions and still going strong in its sixth week. That's not a box office run, that's a cultural event.

Wendi McClendon-Covey missed the Bridesmaids reunion at the Oscars and her reason is iconic: she was recovering from a neck lift. She literally said "no drama," just cosmetic surgery timing. The honesty we deserve from celebrities.

Celebrity Tea

Zach Braff had to publicly deny he's dating an AI chatbot. That is a real sentence about a real situation in 2026. No further details needed because the headline IS the story. JD, buddy, the internet is never letting this go.

RIP Judy Pace. The Brian's Song actress and groundbreaking Blaxploitation star passed away at 83. A true trailblazer who kicked doors open in Hollywood when very few would.

TikTok & Internet

TikTok's new AI feature is getting dragged. Users are furious that it's secretly replacing the search function and serving up straight-up wrong information — including botching facts about Zara Larsson. The AI overview in captions? Completely inaccurate. TikTok said "let's add AI" and the AI said "let's add chaos."

TikTok also flagged "caldo de pollo" — which literally just means chicken soup. The content moderation algorithm saw Spanish and chose violence. Make it make sense.

Those "legendary TikTok products" are having their moment — BuzzFeed rounded up 36 products that have transcended the app entirely. You know the ones: the flossing toothbrush, the customizable pillows, the stuff your mom is now buying off Amazon because she saw it on your For You page six months ago.
