In this lively Chatmosa session, "Auntie Derek’s Daytime Tea," held on January 5, 2026, host Auntie Derek kicked off the first session of the new year with his fabulous co-hosts: Icy Chili, Gorgeous Moon, and Libra Queen. Together, they masterfully dissected the latest celebrity news, sprinkled with humor, candid commentary, and audience engagement.
The session opened with a reminder about the ongoing "Hot Tea Cold Cash" giveaways, building anticipation for the next winners. Auntie Derek announced the eighth-week winner, Dominique, amid cheers and excitement, emphasizing the simplicity of entering the giveaways. “If I can do it, you can do it! So yeah, if one of your resolutions was to start a podcast this year, let me inspire you,” he quipped.
Transitioning seamlessly into the celebrity gossip, the hosts tackled the intricate legal woes surrounding music mogul Diddy. Recently, Diddy has enlisted a team of law professors in an appeal against his sentence, arguing that due process was not upheld in his sentencing. “A jury's decision should matter,” Auntie Derek highlighted during this discussion, capturing the gravity of the implications for the justice system and the public's trust in it.
Next, the conversation shifted to Ray J, who is currently navigating a tumultuous personal life following a restraining order that separates him from his children. “I’m confusion... you want to see your kids, but how do you expect to do that with a restraining order on you?” mused Libra Queen, sparking a debate about accountability in parenting.
The hosts then segued into 50 Cent's latest feud with Clarissa Shields, further enlivening the session with discussions on celebrity drama. “50 Cent loves to troll; it’s like his side hustle!” Auntie Derek remarked, adding to the playful banter.
The group also shared poignant moments, addressing the tragic news of Dallas rapper Zee the Wizard, who is fighting for his life after being shot. “This is devastating for someone who just achieved a major milestone in his career,” Icy Chili stated empathetically.
Auntie Derek and the co-hosts did not shy away from discussing the latest controversies surrounding celebrities like Tyra Sanchez from "RuPaul's Drag Race," who is suing RuPaul for defamation and emotional distress. This led to a spirited exchange about the impact of public narratives on individuals’ lives, with Auntie Derek asserting that, “celebrity behavior is under intense scrutiny, and as artists, they have a responsibility.”
The session concluded with news of James Harden potentially abandoning his newborn amidst his relationship struggles and the sad passing of actress Jane Tricker, known for her role in "Scary Movie." “Life is too short and while these celebrity dramas provide us with entertainment, we must not forget the real-life impacts behind the headlines,” Auntie Derek reminded the audience.
As a final note, he encouraged everyone to return for tomorrow’s live show, reiterating, “Come join us as we spill more hot tea!” This session captured the essence of pop culture commentary—entertaining yet deeply resonant, drawing listeners back for more engaging discussions.
