On the show today… The 2021 ARIA Awards are nearly upon us and this year they are going to look refreshingly different. There have been some huge changes made to how the two major categories are judged and it’s sure to shake up the Australian music industry. Plus, we’re back in the swing of glitzy awards shows and red carpets but they are definitely not all they are cracked up to be, at least according to a spicy new interview with Ed Sheeran. The award-winning musician has lifted the lid on what really goes on behind the scenes of the world’s biggest award shows and look, it sounds pretty brutal. And it’s the new magazine cover everyone is talking about. Time Magazine has released their annual list of The World’s Most 100 Influential People of 2021 and for the first time, Prince Harry and Meghan Markle have appeared together formally for a magazine cover. The cover itself has received a wave of ridicule, but the cover story contains a pretty pointed message for the couple’s biggest and most vocal critics.
