We tapped out for a few weeks — and that holiday hangover is REAL — but we’re BACK and better than ever!!! Time to TAP-IN y’all!

Here’s your Gen-Z news of the week!

“Wicked: For Good” may be so two months ago, but Ariana Grande is still droppin’ behind-the-scenes shots, and this double birdie selfie is the mood we need going into 2026. What are y’all’s thoughts?

Internet sensation and Broadway star Trisha Paytas says she wants to run for Congress in California … and she’s already got her campaign slogan picked out. With a tight deadline to collect signatures, are you signing for Trisha?!

Just mere moments after Timothée Chalamet won the Critics’ Choice Award for Best Actor, he smooched his bae, Kylie Jenner, and used her perky posterior to stand up and gain momentum before heading towards the stage. If y’all were skeptical of this duo before, this PDA moment has gotta change your minds, right?!

Like it or not, TikTok is all the rage these days, and JoJo Siwa — one of the early TikTokers — changed her handle name from “JoJo” to “Joelle.” Is this the end of the JoJo era?!

Gen-Zers are stoked with this week’s news: Heartthrob Milo Manheim and Australian actress Teagan Croft are set to star in the live-action “Tangled” as Flynn Rider and Rapunzel! A true fairy tale in the making?!

A presidential aircraft dubbed the “Doomsday Plane” was recently spotted at LAX … and social media has already jumped to the most disastrous conclusions.

The Boeing E-4 Advanced Airborne Command Post was filmed landing in Los Angeles on Thursday … and it’s a pretty big freaking deal given the current extreme global tensions.

Basically, this is the bird President Trump would travel in amid a nuclear war … so yeah, people are going bananas online.

The “Doomsday Plane” is actually one of several in a fleet of planes that is constantly on alert and usually in the air, can withstand a nuclear blast, and is protected against an electromagnetic pulse — or as the U.S. Air Force explains … “In case of national emergency or destruction of ground command and control centers, the aircraft provides a highly survivable command, control, and communications center to direct U.S. forces, execute emergency war orders, and coordinate actions by civil authorities.”

So far … there’s no official word as to why the plane is out and about — but the rare sighting has some people freaking out, assuming we’re on the brink of WWIII.
