Morning Buzz! Milo Ventimiglia’s Sweet Note Will Help You Cope With This Is Us’ Latest Ep + More

Whether you’re crying from the latest This Is Us ep or from laughter at Chrissy Teigen’s meme, we’ve got all the feels covered in this morning’s top news stories. Check those and more out below!

1. Hi, are you still an emotional wreck from last night’s This Is Us episode? Us too. Luckily, Milo — AKA Jack Pearson — has you covered if you need to skip work or school or LIFE and just have all the feels. “Dear Sir/Madam,” the pre-written note that he tweeted in advance of the show reads. “Please excuse [your name here] from work/school today, Wednesday. Last night was a very emotional episode of This Is Us. Thank you, Papa Pearson.” No spoilers here, so go watch, then read the recap. And for the love of everything, bring tissue.

2. Chrissy Teigen once again proves she’s the social media queen with this PERFECT response to people saying John Legend looks like Arthur. Twitter user @sowahblanket recently — and sorta accurately?! — pointed out that John Legend kinda looks just like the kid’s cartoon/beloved meme Arthur. It pretty quickly went mini-viral, and Chrissy responded with the Arthur fist and a caption that read, “John when you tell him he looks like Arthur.” TOO PERFECT.

3. Selena Gomez gave the Weeknd a sneaky little shoutout in a family pic. Selena’s mom posted an adorable pic of a family game night, and Selena’s nod to her rumored BF the Weeknd is so subtle, we missed it the first time around. See the little red screen-printed detail on her black tshirt? That’s the Weeknd’s tour merch. Sooo this means they’re 100 percent totally really official, right? Right.

4. Milo Yiannopoulos resigned from Breitbart News. Just days after the controversial editor had his upcoming book cancelled by the publisher because of pedophilia-related comments in an interview, he announced his resignation, but stated he’d be starting a new media venture shortly.

A post shared by Kellogg's NYC (@kelloggsnyc) on

5. This Pop-Tarts cafe is what dreams are made of. Sugary, sugary dreams. Here are some of the things on Kellog’s NYC’s menu: Pop-Tarts burritos, Pop-Tarts Tacos, Chili Pop-Tarts fries, Pop-Tarts Pizza. Drooling yet? The dishes look savory but are all sweet, and made with — duh — Pop-Tarts, plus some additional fruit and candy. The pop-up cafe is open from 8am-11pm until February 26 in Times Square.

6. Quote of the day: “Tomorrow is not promised.” This Is Us star Sterling K. Brown got emotional while taking fan questions on Facebook after last night’s super emosh episode, reminding us that “you gotta let let the people know while they’re here how much they’re appreciated and how much you love them.” Truth.

Out of all the celebrity breakups I wasn't expecting, Camila Cabello and Shawn Mendes definitely tops the list. They were clearly very close, and Shawn even admitted that all of his songs are about Camila, even the ones he released before they dated! (Okay, cute). The couple split at the end of 2021, but after a very buzzy summer following rumors that Sabrina Carpenter's Short 'n Sweet references their love triangle, Shawn Mendes revealed Camila is still one of his closest friends.

  • Camila Cabello and Shawn Mendes dated from 2019-2021, then reportedly reconnected in 2023.
  • Shawn recently opened up about how Camila is "one of my closest best friends."
  • He also reveals she's still the first person he would call in an emergency.

What does Shawn Mendes say about Camila Cabello?

In a new interview with The New York Times, Shawn Mendes reveals just how much Camila Cabello means to him, and that it “bugs” him that the internet thinks they're “against each other in a weird way.”

"[She's] one of my closest best friends...I have nerves just even speaking about it, just what people would say," he reveals. “But honestly, if something was to happen in my family and if something was to happen to me, she’d probably be the first person I call, to this day...Our relationship is teaching me what love means, in a big way.”

The interview comes after Shawn Mendes spoke on his sexuality (something that, for some reason, has been a topic of conversation on the internet for years), and after the duo was in the spotlight following the release of Sabrina Carpenter's Short 'n Sweet, which seems to reference a love triangle between the three of them. Fans analyzed lyrics like "Oh I leave quite an impression" in "Taste" after Camila Cabello dyed her hair blonde, and "Your car drove itself from L.A. to her thighs" in "Coincidence" when Camila teased a lyric from "June Gloom" that says "If she's so amazing, why are you on this side of town?"

Have Shawn Mendes and Camila broken up?

This isn't the first time the pair has broken the internet, and one of my favorite moments was when they performed "Señorita" at the AMAs in 2019. The chemistry! The vocals! The audience reactions!

And in November of 2021, the pair made a joint statement (which was posted to their individual Instagram stories) announcing their breakup.

"Hey guys, we’ve decided to end our romantic relationship but our love for one another as humans is stronger than ever,” the statement said. “We started our relationship as best friends and will continue to be best friends. We so appreciate your support from the beginning and moving forward. Camila and Shawn.”

Are Shawn Mendes and Camila Cabello together again?

Camila Cabello and Shawn Mendes might have broken up, but they're definitely still in each other's lives. And there were rumors in 2023 that they had romantically reconnected. “They’ve practically moved in with each other,” an US Weekly sourcesaid last summer. “They each have their own places, but they’re spending every day they can together and traveling together.”

The pair has been spotted together more and more frequently, at Coachella, then at Taylor Swift's Eras Tour, and even in the middle of New York City. The Us Weekly source also mentions that “it feels like a new relationship.”

However, according to a new source, the pair has broken up again — this time for good. “Shawn and Camila have a lot of history and they tested the waters again after coming back into each other’s lives," the source told The Sun. "In reality, both of them know they aren’t right for each other romantically and now they just want to move on.”

Despite the will-they-won't-they of it all, it seems like Shawn Mendes and Camila Cabello will always be in each other's lives!

When did Shawn Mendes and Camila Cabello date?

After being friends for years (and that steamy VMAs performance), Shawn Mendes and Camila Cabello dated from 2019-2021.

How old are Shawn Mendes and Camila Cabello?

Shawn Mendes is 26 years old and was born on August 8, 1998, while 27-year-old Camila Cabello was born on March 3, 1997. There's just a one-year age gap between them!
