    Welcome back to the LuxeGen Group Chat! This week, Sapna is joined by Steph and Poppy for a nostalgia-fuelled deep dive from the Jonas Brothers bringing out Demi Lovato on tour (and speculating who's next), to Hannah Montana turning 20 (?!). They also get into the details of Taylor Swift’s new album – with Sabrina Carpenter featuring on the title track – plus thoughts on the upcoming Harry Potter TV series and the bombshell that Rupert Grint was meant to play Austin Ames – cue Steph reliving her actual flirting moment with Chad Michael Murray. We also debrief Shrek 5 being pushed back because TikTok guessed the plot, the chaos of The Summer I Turned Pretty x KFC collab, and the eternal question: are toe rings back? (Poppy says yes – and that they never left.)...Follow us on:Instagram | https://bit.ly/3X0xm27TikTok | http://bit.ly/3jvwlBEPodcast | https://open.spotify.com/show/60SxAVVuD3LrgLdlKuy3uH Panel:Sapna Rao | @sapna_rao | https://www.instagram.com/sapna_rao/?hl=en Poppy Edmonds | @poppyedmonds | https://www.instagram.com/poppyedmondss/?hl=en Stephanie Campion | @stephanieblaaa | https://www.instagram.com/stephanieblaaa/?hl=en

Finally, they tackle some seriously tricky group chat territory: is it a red flag if your situationship’s still on Hinge? Can you take space from a thriving friend without feeling like the worst person ever? And what do you do when your flatmate wants to go viral as the ultimate girl-flat but IRL she’s a nightmare?Follow us on:Instagram | https://bit.ly/3X0xm27TikTok | http://bit.ly/3jvwlBEPodcast | https://open.spotify.com/show/60SxAVVuD3LrgLdlKuy3uH Panel:Sapna Rao | @sapna_rao | https://www.instagram.com/sapna_rao/?hl=en Saroop Sangha | @saroop.k.s | https://www.instagram.com/saroop.k.s/?hl=en-gb Lola Lawlor | @lolalawlor | https://www.instagram.com/lolalawlor/?hl=en-gb What We Mentioned:Pleasing | https://pleasing.com/ The Summer I Turned Pretty | https://tinyurl.com/5debuuys Things We're Loving: Stick | https://tinyurl.com/3kzfm3dh Shark Whisperer | https://www.netflix.com/gb/title/81639669 Amy Bradley Is Missing | https://tinyurl.com/5n6jrf73
