I take something to eat. I take something to eat. Someone forced her to have a girlfriend. Yeah. Okay. Yeah. Oh, my mouth. And I put it in there. The Fred Show is on it. All right. All right. It's Friday.

March 27th. Good morning. Thank you so much for having us on. It's the Fred Show. Hi, Kaelin. Hey. Hi, Jason. Hi, Paulina. Hi, Kiki. Good morning. Shelby Sialis, your Bella Hamine. The Friday throwback dance party. DJ Narotic. It's just a second. We'll get to that. Headlines. Fun fact. And the entertainment reporter coming up. The last night at the I Heart Radio Music Awards about honing your calf. Ah, I see what you did there as well as, you know, a little mistakes. Fall on the way. Oh, okay. I was just telling you that two seconds ago. So. Thank Kaelin's entertainment report is on the Fred Show. Our I Heart Radio Music Awards went down from LA last night hosted by Luda who earned his chat, Connie. He was honored with the landmark award, which is for his contribution to music and culture. Close out the show with a ton of his bangers. I love him so much. Taylor Swift took home seven awards. I believe she's the most decorated artist in our award show history. And this was her first public appearance of 2026. So this is the time. And she said, I want to be seen on purpose.

And for some reason, she did that with us. And she blessed us. I got to say, you know, we don't have proper climate control. Half of the equipment in here doesn't work because someone comes in here and unplugs it. We don't have access to natural light, but I'll tell you what, I was proud to see Taylor Swift on our I Heart Radio red carpet lesson. It was very cool. It was cool. And like she didn't have to walk their carpet. She chose to. She chose to hang out with everybody. So I loved that. And I really loved her speech. So she's like I said, she won a ton of awards. But when she won artists of the year, she started talking about that little girl who would go home. And she said, my job started out as a hobby. And she was talking about how she had the space and room to perfect it quietly. You know, without the outside noise that the internet gives us. And she kind of wishes that for everyone, but she did speak on how social media has complicated that process. Here's a part of what she had to say. Like we live in this world where there's so much immediate feedback constantly. Like you get feedback for everything you share with the world now.

If everything you post, you get feedback, whether it's good or bad or whatever. I just want to say if I had, if I had one hope for you, I would say that I hope that you get to nurture your hobby and your passion. Just between you and that craft. And you give yourself time. Give yourself time to make mistakes. Give yourself time to hone your craft. I'm a firm believer that anything you feed your mind, it will internalize. Anything you feed the internet, it will attempt to kill. And I don't want that for your dreams. So just thank you for allowing me to turn my hobby into a love, into a passion, into a dream, into a career. Thank you for allowing me to have it this long. And I wish you the best with everything you do. Thank you so much for this amazing, amazing. I love you. What's words from Mama Taylor? Think about that. Anything you feed your mind, you internalize. That's why she says, you know, feed it positive things. Anything you feed the internet, it will attempt to kill.

Put it on a tat. My lower back. That was really. She ate that up. She also shouted out. Right next to the arrow pointing down. Perfect. I'll put mine near the dolphins. And then the crucifix that I chose to put on my lower back. Right. So I picture this morning of someone on social media who has a crucifix on her lower back. And I love a religious queen. But was that was that the first choice of spots for that? We like because you're not going to see it as much as. Right. Shout out to my dad's ex who had eyes in that in that place. I believe it was a two-pock tattoo that said all eyes on me. I love it. We love a thing about you. We love her, former stripper, tongue ring, love her. You do. You put a tattoo wherever the heck you want. It's fine. But I do think sometimes about that particular placement and the choices that are made. It's for when you're in a certain position. Well, that's what I was in. Right. And blind. Yeah. Yeah. Okay. Sorry about that. Speaking of that, she also shouted out Travis. And they kept leaving and going back.

So what the hell were they doing? They were having a good, they were leaving and then the seat fillers were come. So I think they were making out backstage. Alex Warren took out the Breakthrough Award. They had a re on an air stream in the parking lot. They would go out there and do whatever Rihanna and Mace Frocky do in the air stream. Rihanna is winning at life with her air stream. Yeah. The tour of the year, the weekend and Alex Warren did a really good performance. I know Jason is changed. She's saved. And he loved that. Tyler Perry says he showed up to the airport in Atlanta with a plan to help, but it didn't go the way he expected with TSA workers going weeks without actual pay during the government shutdown. He actually brought cash and literally wanted to hand it out direct to the agents. He was stopped. Federal will say they are not allowed to accept money or gifts. Well, on duty instead of handing out cash, he stayed talked with the workers shook hands. And thank them for continuing to show up despite not getting paid. I'm sure they wish that they could have taken the cash. There is still a way to help. And the coaches say donations can be routed through TSA unions which then can be distributed to workers.

But he just showed up with a lot of cash and wanted to help. Cardi B scored another win tied to that lawsuit with that former security guard. She's also having a good week, a judge ruled that she can now get back nearly 20 Gs in legal costs after beating the Guards assault claims in court last year quick backstory. He had sued Cardi over an alleged incident from 2018. The jury sided with the rapper said that she wasn't liable. Now, on top of winning the case, she's allowed to recover the money she spent defending herself even though the guard tried to block it. And like she, she shows up to court. She has them laughing every time she's in court and she wins every time she's in court. And I get it, man. I was at her concert and I was giggling and chuckling the whole night. She's the most charming person. So another win for Miss Cardi and she says she's not taking parts of her butt out anymore. I know you were up all night thinking about that. She was going to remove some leave it as it. So yeah, keep it, girl. I saw that thing shake and like I'm a changed woman. Fred show radio, if you want to find out anything you miss from the week on the I Heart Radio app, click the highlights too because there's special stuff from the awards last

night. Fred show is on. Yeah. Fred's fun fact. Fred's fun fact. You can learn so much, guys. I had to double and triple check this to make sure that it was true. And I guess it is, did you know that Pepsi, the drink, the company technically briefly had their own Navy in 1989, they owned literal warships and submarines. So I had to know more. So in 1989, Pepsi briefly owned Soviet warships and submarines as part of a unique Cold War trade deal. They traded its coal as syrup for vodka and acquired a fleet of 17 attack submarines and other warships making it one of the largest Navy's in the world at the time. The deal was part of a broader strategy to expand Pepsi's presence in the Soviet market which had been largely closed to Western goods since 1972. The trade highlight of the unusual intersection of soft drink sales and military power during

the Cold War. So Pepsi had attack warships briefly. Wow. Did you watch the documentary and Netflix? I think it was from last year or two years ago with the story about the guy who wanted his jet. Pepsi did a contest, it's on Netflix, did a contest where you could trade in Pepsi points from buying Pepsi to get an F-18 Hornet, Super Hornets, a Hornet, I guess at the time. And I guess there wasn't a Super Hornet. It was, they didn't have. I don't think they had a Super Hornet then. That had been crazy. I know you're a Hornet enthusiast. Yeah, I have no idea what we're talking about. You're more of a Super Hornet girl though. I know. No, don't mix those up. Absolutely not. I'm sorry. But yeah, and then to do it like, there was no legal, they didn't put any legal ease in there that said like that he couldn't actually win that. And so he had enough points and he was like, where's my, where's my jet? And they had to work it out. It's a whole Netflix show about it. Which of course I watch because I don't have a life on waiting by the phone is new. And next day, more Fred show next.
