HQ is a live game typically played daily at 3pm and 9pm Eastern. The winners of each session split a prize of thousands of dollars. The app is free to play and add-free. Some patience may be required - technical issues are not infrequent as the app gains popularity (they topped 1,000,000 players in one game last week and recently debuted on Android)

- Is on the fence about Dustin Hoffman. Thinks he was touching women because he's superstitious and it was "childish" stuff.

ONTD PSA: Every time multi-platinum lyricist Taylor Swift was "inspired" by other artists
Exhibit A: Taylor vs. Calvin Harris
Taylor's recent music video for "End Game" has several similarities to Calvin Harris' music video for "Let's Go," which came out 5 years ago (credit: maidenhell)
vs.
Just like Calvin's video, three major cities are introduced with large, bold font. Also, both artists' names are displayed in the same font at the beginning of the videos. Both videos take place in three different cities, with three different scenarios, and the majority of the time is spent partying and hanging out with friends.
Exhibit B: Taylor vs. Hilary Duff
1) As pointed out by rubie_dubidoux, in Hilary's song "Wake Up," she sings:
Wake up, wake up on a Saturday night
Could be New York, maybe Hollywood and Vine
London, Paris, maybe Tokyo
There's something going on anywhere I go tonight
Tonight, yeah, tonight
In the music video, there are multiple stories going on at once as Hilary and her friends party. The fonts aren't the same, but the video has a very similar concept.
2) In Taylor's song "Getaway Car," she sings "X marks the spot where we fell apart," which is the exact same line that Hilary has in her song "Breathe In. Breathe Out."
This was pointed out in this ONTD Original by cameltoee in November. Taylor even posted about Hilary's song on Tumblr years ago, so we're not crazy!
.@taylorswift13 has revealed on Tumblr what her favorite song off of @HilaryDuff's "Breathe In. Breathe Out." is: pic.twitter.com/XqAxG8CzpO
— Hilary Duff News (@HilaryNews) June 25, 2015
Taylor Swift stated on her Tumblr that her favorite track from @HilaryDuff's new album is "Breathe In. Breathe Out." pic.twitter.com/NmPALELfQU
— Hilary Duff News (@HilaryUpdate) June 25, 2015
3) In "You'll Always Find Your Way Back Home" (a song that Taylor Swift wrote for the Hannah Montana movie), Taylor takes several lines from "So Yesterday." (This was pointed out by cherryblossym.)
Hilary's song:
You can change your life (if you wanna)
You can change your clothes (if you want to)
If you change your mind
Well that's the way it goes
Taylor's song:
You can change your hair and you can change your clothes
You can change your mind, that’s just the way it goes
Exhibit C: Taylor vs. Lana del Rey
1) There are definitely some similarities between the chorus of Taylor's song "Wildest Dreams" and the chorus of Lana's song "Without You." The video also captures old Hollywood, which is typically a motif that Lana uses.
Begin at 0:34
Begin at 0:40
2) Additionally, Taylor's music videos have begun to look more similar to Lana's music videos.
As shown in this article, there are many visual similarities between their videos. In "Style," Taylor uses silhouettes like Lana has used before, and the images are more foggy and grainy, like in Lana's earlier music videos.
In particular, the music video for "I Knew You Were Trouble" has the same mood as "Ride," and both videos feature driving fast in cars with tattooed bad boys. Much like Lana's video, Taylor begins her video with a 2-3 minute monologue, discussing memories of her past relationship. (The difference is that it sounds like Taylor is eleven and reading from her diary.)
Exhibit D: Taylor vs. Hozier
In Taylor's song "Don't Blame Me," she compares love to a drug as she uses a gothic church soundscape, which sounds similar to Hozier’s “Take Me to Church.”
We know she loves the song because she's been captured singing and dancing to it.
In the behind the scenes video for "Don't Blame Me," she even mentioned wanting her new song to "sound religious."
Exhibit E: Taylor vs. Alison Sudol
As pointed out by lumosofmylifein this thread, Taylor rips off Alison Sudol's lyrics and concept.
Alison Sudol's lyrics for "Rangers" are:
The rangers stream out of their cabins
They are the hunters and we are the rabbits
Maybe we don't want to be found
Maybe we don't want you tracking us down
Taylor Swift's lyrics for "I Know Places" are:
Baby I know places we won't be found and they'll be chasing our trace tryin' to track us down
Cause I, I know places we can hide, I know places
They are the hunters, we are the foxes
And we run
Just grab my hand and don't ever drop it
My love
Exhibit F: Taylor vs. Saving Jane
In 2010, Saving Jane's lead singer tweeted about Taylor possibly lifting lyrics from her song. There was a post on ONTD about it -- with the tweets and her song.
In "Girl Next Door," the lyrics look very similar to "You Belong With Me":
She is the prom queen I’m in the marching band
She is a cheerleader I’m sitting in the stands
She gets the top bunk I’m sleeping on the floor
She’s Miss America and I’m just the girl next door
Exhibit G: Taylor vs. Sleigh Bells
Taylor's new song "Ready for It...?" sounds eerily similar to "Kids" by Sleigh Bells.
Ready for It comes in @ 00:24. The sum becomes greater than the parts at about 1:00.
Exhibit H: Taylor vs. Peaches
Taylor was once called "Regina George in sheep's clothing" and her new song uses the beat from this scene in Mean Girls. 👀 pic.twitter.com/lpRCCIIk1w
— T. Kyle (@tkylemac) August 25, 2017
and if y'all want the technical receipts pic.twitter.com/737DWAi0oP
— T. Kyle (@tkylemac) August 25, 2017
The beat he's referring to is in Peaches' song "Operate." It is not credited in the notes for "Look What You Made Me Do."
A mash-up of the two songs:
Exhibit I: Taylor vs. Lorde
In Lorde's song "Sober II (Melodrama)" there are several lyrics referencing cleaning up the champagne glasses throughout the song:
Lights are on and they’ve gone home, but who am I?
Oh, how fast the evening passes, cleaning up
The champagne glasses
These lyrics repeat in the chorus.
According to The Pop Song Professor:
"Sober II" seems to be about the "melodrama" or empty meaningfulness of the events of the night before. Even as she's staring around at this now empty party room, all that others would have her to believe was meaningful about the events of the night before pale in the light of day. Melodrama refers to the practice of conflating the emotions of a situation in order to appeal to listeners without the story necessarily being able to hold the weight of interest that the story-writer is asking for."
Lorde, for her part, is left with some rather existential questions. Now that the "[l]ights are on and [everyone has] gone home," she wonders, "[W]ho am I?" She thought she was a partier and a thrill-seeker, but now that the party over, who is there left for her to be? The time when she felt whole--the "evening"--"passes" quickly, and now she's "cleaning up / The champagne glasses," sad and perhaps lonely.
Taylor Swift's new song "New Year's Day" also references a party. Some lyrics are:
There's glitter on the floor after the party
Girls carrying their shoes down in the lobby
Candle wax and Polaroids on the hardwood floor
You and me from the night before, but
Don’t read the last page
But I stay when you're lost, and I'm scared
And you’re turning away
I want your midnights
But I'll be cleaning up bottles with you on New Year's Day
According to Taylor:
"I was thinking about how everybody talks and thinks about who you kiss at midnight, and I think that is very romantic. But I think there’s something even more romantic about who’s gonna deal with you on New Year’s Day. Who’s willing to give you Advil and clean up the house? I think that states more of a permanence.”
Some may claim that Taylor's song is more positive, but both songs are about cleaning up after a party and the sense of loneliness that comes with it (unless a boyfriend is there with you, in Taylor's case). Both songs were produced by Jack Antonoff.
Exhibit J: Taylor vs. Matt Nathanson
In Taylor's song "All Too Well," she sings, "...and I forget about you long enough to forget why I needed to."
In Matt Nathanson's single "I Saw," he sings, "...and I’ll forget about you long enough to forget why I need to."
We know Taylor is a fan of his because she's been known to perform shows with his lyrics written on her arms.
He posted this tweet in 2012 and later deleted it:
He retweeted this tweet:
And tweeted this:
so far, my favorite thing about today is the wave of @taylorswift13 fans calling me a prick on twitter for writing "i saw" in 2003.

Side-by-side comparison:
Lastly... she uses a pirated fox illustration without giving credit to the actual artist and then claims the artist is trying to extract money and publicity. (Thank you harrys_headband.)
As described in this article, Taylor took an illustration that a fan created for her.
- "When artist Ally Burguieres, who created the fox image and sells prints of it for $45, learned that her painting had been appropriated (with the fan's signature adorning it), she asked for it to be taken down."
- "After months of effort, I received an offer from you and your team that mentions no credit to me as the artist of the design, but does include payment of a 'four-figure' amount, with the stipulation that I must donate it all."
- Taylor's team responded with: "We have tried on multiple occasions to address Ms. Burguieres' concerns, but these actions make it clear to us that this is just an unfortunate effort to extract more money and more publicity."
- The artist claimed that she had indeed made several attempts to contact the pop star. She also questioned why the singer would not give her attribution and said that she did not get any publicity from the misappropriation until she posted her open letter. Moreover, she stood by her claim that Swift's lawyer asked her to consider donating the fee to charity.

ONTD Original: Where Are They Now? - The Sleepover Club (Part 1)
This year marks 10 years since The Sleepover Club ended (R.I.P), so I thought it would be fun to see what the cast members are up to now.
The Sleepover Club was an Australian television show that broadcast from 2002-2008 and had 2 seasons, consisting of 26 episodes each. It aired on Nine Network in Australia, and also appeared on networks such as Nickelodeon, ITV and Popgirl. (Also R.I.P)
Caitlin Stasey as Frankie
After her role on The Sleepover Club, Caitlin appeared on 'Neighbours' from 2005-2009, playing the role of Rachel Kinski. She has also appeared in 'Reign', 'Please Like Me' and 'APB' on TV, and movies such as 'Tomorrow, When The War Began'. As well as acting, Caitlin set up a launched a feminist website, Herself, which features interviews with women on topics such as the female body, masturbation and reproductive rights.
Basia A'hern as Lyndz
Basia continued acting for a while after TSC, appearing in shows such as McLeod's daughters, Bitter & Twisted, Out Of The Blue and Double Trouble. Her Wikipedia lists her last project as being in 2008. She doesn't appear to have any social media so i'm unsure as to what she's doing now.
Hannah Wang as Kenny
Since the show, Hannah has appeared in Sleeping Beauty, Creatures of Creation and Blue Sky County. She is also the founder and director of her own clothing store, AUST, and has apparently lived in California since 2011.
Eliza Taylor as Rosie
Like Caitlin, Eliza appeared in Neighbours as Janae Timmins from 2005-2008. She moved to the UK briefly after and starred as Snow White in a Christmas panto. She also appeared in an episode of All Saints, before appearing as Clarke Griffin in The 100 since 2014.
Ashleigh Chisholm as Fliss
Ashleigh has only acted in one thing since TSC - a movie called Submerged, in 2011. Like Basia, I can't find much on where she is now as all of her social media profiles are private. Her facebook profile picture tells me she's married though.
Ryan Corr as Matthew
Hes had many guest appearances including Blue Heelers, Scooter: Secret Agent, Neighbours and also appeared on Blue Water High. He was the recipient of the Heath Ledger scholarship in 2011. In 2014, he was busted with heroin possession in Bondi. Films he's been in include Where The Wild Things are, Not Suitable For Children, Holding The Man and Hacksaw Ridge. He currently stars in Wanted.
Stefan La Rosa as Marco
I can't find anything on him as his social media is also private (not even a recent photo). He no longer acts, but he did guest star in an episode of Neighbours at some point.
Blake Hampson as Michael
He also doesn't seem to act anymore, and appears to live in Utah now working as a Dean's assistant. He's a hardcore mormon and posts a lot of public mormon shit on his Facebook. He also voted no to same sex marriage.
Ashleigh Brewer as Alana
She appeared in H20: Just Add Water after TSC, and then went on to star in Neighbours as Kate Ramsay from 2009-2014. She's currently starring in The Bold & The Beautiful as Ivy.
Annaleise Woods as Sara
She appeared in a movie called See No Evil and an episode of Monarch Grove, both in 2006. Other than that, I can't find anything on her.
And that's it! I might do a part 2 with the season 2 cast if anyone is interested, or do some other Aussie shows.

Did Lorde cause Lena Dunham and Jack Antonoff's break up? An ONTD Investigation.
- If we go back to this post, we will see that Lena Dunham and Jack Antonoff have been on the brink of a break up for a while. It took months. Who has Jack been spending many months with recently? Our girl Ella Yelich-O'Connor.
- Lorde and Jack worked very closely together on her album Melodrama and she often waxed poetic about him in interviews and on social media.
- Lena allegedly deleted the Instagram she had from a few months ago when Melodrama dropped.
