What does the gossip press have in store for us in 2026?

BarcelonaPop culture is unpredictable and always surprises us with events no one could have ever imagined. Unforeseen combinations of celebrities whose paths seem unbelievable. influencers Making pronouncements only possible thanks to minds forged in the most trivial battles, celebrities using social media while drunk, and television networks desperate to attract new audiences are just some of the scenarios that are sure to give us the best headlines of the year. However, at the moment, all of this is just speculation, since we don't know how all this information will ultimately materialize. Nevertheless, we already have some news stories on the agenda that all signs point to being front-page news.

Glorious Weddings

The weddings of 2026 will be legendary. We don't know if it will be because of the quality of the information they generate, but certainly because of the stature of the protagonists. Or rather: of the The main characters are mostly A-list pop divas (sorry for using football analogies to talk about gay icons, but we have to understand each other somehow...). From a media perspective, they're just background figures. Barring any last-minute surprises, Dua Lipa will marry actor and model Callum Turner this coming year. I hope they let us see photos of the wedding, because missing out on so much beauty—and always so impeccably dressed—would be a shame. Maybe they'll come live in Barcelona to escape the British paparazzi and liven up the celebrity scene a bit, because since we lost Shakira and her witch, things have been pretty dull.

If our hopes are not in vain, Lady Gaga will also be getting married; she's been with Michael Polansky for six years now. I'm sure their relationship will last, because she's sapiosexual and he's a very intelligent man, a mathematician, and a Harvard graduate. Besides, Gaga's mother chose her fiancé, because she always went for the typical kind of men that her mother knew wouldn't go anywhere. So far, it seems she was right. We also have Tom Holland and Zendaya nearing the altar; an entire generation will copy her wedding dress for a decade, even if she gets married in a Decathlon wetsuit. influencer By nature, if you ask me. But be careful, because they might postpone the wedding due to his concussion and their heavy workload... May luck be on our side!

We also have two extravagant and highly predictable weddings on the list that are sure to generate plenty of buzz. Georgina Rodríguez and Taylor Swift are marrying Cristiano Ronaldo and Travis Kelce, respectively. The four are deliberately listed in order of their pop significance in this sentence, from most to least important. The singer gets married at her home in Rhode Island and Georgina in Madeira, Because Saudi Arabia probably wasn't allowed to serve the Iberian ham she loves so much at the banquet. We hope there are already camped out near Taylor Swift's house. Swifties They were selling diapers to be the first to see the most skimmed and lactose-free diva of all time dressed as a bride. Diaper sales surrounding Swift's career mark the level of her status within pop: if they don't sell out in Rhode Island supermarkets, her reign is shaky.

Finally, it's also irresistible to imagine what he will do. Miley Cyrus became a media personality after getting married (her second marriage) to Max Morando, a musician whose name you might not recognize, but who you might liken to a young Camilo Sesto. However, to be completely honest, I must confess that what interests me most about this wedding is the look Dolly Parton will choose to go. If she's not invited, Miley should be canceled for life. And the best part: Cher will get married in 2026. because she believes in life after loveI hope she gets married in white, but with sheer details at the same time. It's understood that she won't postpone her wedding, since she'll be 80 in 2026. She doesn't have many friends to invite because age takes its toll, but I'd like her to invite Madonna, the English-speaking Massiel, the international Massiel, even if just to be polite. In fact, everyone should invite Madonna, and next December she should hold a... docureality of the best weddings she has attended during the year.

Rain of creatures

Birth rates are falling sharply in the developed world, but this isn't thanks to celebrities, who can afford to have children on a massive scale. In fact, they are proof that wealth is unevenly distributed, because they have children that the working class cannot. From our own country, we're interested in what Úrsula Corberó and Chino Darín are expecting; even though he hasn't been born yet, we already know he's gorgeous and stylish. Internationally, we're waiting for the fourth child of Pierre Casiraghi and Beatrice Borromeo, who is a prolific mother of little blond, blue-eyed Monegasque princes, born solely to provide fodder for [unclear - possibly "the media" or "the media"]. Hello!This is something to applaud, because it allows many journalists to keep their jobs. In fact, I always think that after having her first child, she only has more children because before becoming a princess she was a journalist and she knows how difficult things are and that the profession needs support. It is also expected—though not yet official—that Brooklyn Beckham's first child will be born, who will be the Beckhams' first grandchild. Currently Brooklyn and his famous parents are not speaking to each other.This must be a relief for Victoria Beckham, who can now live with her back turned to the fact that she is already a grandmother.

In Spain, a flurry of celebrity babies is expected: Fernando Alonso's first—which will be Melissa Jiménez's fourth, as she already has three with Marc Bartra—Garbiñe Muguruza's first, and Ana Boyer and Fernando Verdasco's fourth. The couple, who live in Qatar, seem content to have children and save money. The baby is expected to be a girl. Will they name her Isabel, after her grandmother, Isabel Preysler? We'd like to, because in twenty years, when Hello! title "Isabel has a new boyfriend"We won't know if she's talking about the grandmother—who will be 94—or the granddaughter. María Pombo is also expecting a baby girl, who is expected to be named Mariana, like the apparitions. It's not planned that she will do..." stories of her reading him a story, since, as she has said influcayetana this 2025, "Of course, reading doesn't make you a better person."Mariana will have to read the stories herself, unless an audiobook company hires her mother and do content joints.

Pop hypothesis

Obviously, the mainstream Spaniards will embrace homosexuality, even if only out of gossip, when the press starts publishing news about the Javis' new boyfriends. The right wing will swallow its machismo to watch Melania Trump's pseudo-documentary on Netflix, in which she appears as the empowered woman she is, contradicting the heteropatriarchal dreams of all her husband's voters. Hopefully, we'll also see Katy Perry playing the former First Lady of Canada (without actually being one) under the thumb of her new boyfriend, Justin Trudeau, sexier than ever since his midlife crisis. We'll also find out who the winner of... The twins' houseA people's star that the media won't show, which will only increase the legend.

We'll also supposedly discover Lucas's new nose, from Andy and Lucas. Perhaps we'll hear Oliver Laxe's Oscar acceptance speech and see if the Hollywood stars don't take advantage of the moment to go outside for a smoke, because everything seems too complicated for them. We'll see if Lamine Yamal doesn't suffer a relapse of his pubalgia and if Álvaro Morata and Alice Campello finally get divorced, and if the Spanish gossip press can finally change the subject... We'll also learn the verdicts in the Pandorogate trial involving Chiara Ferragni and the specimens that were years ago and the locks that were reversed.

2026 may also bring news stemming from toxic relationships. For example, those arising from the tour of the original version of La Oreja de Van Gogh, which will take place so Amaia Montero can earn money to relaunch her career and then abandon them again. We'll also find out how Cynthia Erivo and Ariana Grande are doing separately, now that they no longer have to promote their music. WickedWe'll find out if they had an anxious attachment or if they were simply very good friends. And finally, we'll see if Jeff Bezos continues promoting Blue Origin by sending celebrities into space. I hope one of these people is Ana Obregón. They'll have to come up with something to keep us in the news in the coming year... Could it be that she's been assigned a new cleansing ritual? After learning that she was very close to Jeffrey Epstein, I'm not ruling anything out anymore. Happy New Year to everyone. To put it mildly...
