May is almost over, and we're almost halfway through the year! After such a busy and fast-paced year, it's important to pause and reflect on the month's highlights. In this article, we'll recap what's been happening in May and what people have been talking about.

Football

Football remains a hot topic of conversation year-round, and May has been no exception. This month witnessed the exhilarating FA Cup and UEFA Europa League, with the finals just around the corner. From the announcement of the Manchester Derby for the FA Cup final to the buzz surrounding transfer rumours, including Harry Kane's contract, football enthusiasts have been captivated.

Eurovision

Eurovision, the renowned song contest, concluded another exciting year, with Sweden's Loreen crowned as the winner. Opinions were mixed, with many expecting Finland's 'Käärijä' to take the top spot. Unfortunately, the United Kingdom faced disappointment, ranking second to last, just above Germany. The Eurovision results generated significant discussions across social media platforms.

The King's Coronation

At the beginning of May, the King's Coronation took place, inspiring celebrations like street parties, afternoon tea, and an extra bank holiday. Viewers could catch the comprehensive coverage of the event on the Chatloop app, where an appearance by Katy Perry surprised many, who hadn’t expected to see someone like her in attendance. 

Met Gala

The Met Gala, an annual fashion extravaganza, is a major talking point every May. This event celebrates fashion and raises funds for the Metropolitan Museum of Art's Costume Institute in New York City. Social media platforms become abuzz with discussions about the red carpet looks. This year, the theme paid tribute to the iconic Karl Lagerfeld, and attendees adorned themselves in black and white, synonymous with the late luxury designer's aesthetic.

This Morning

ITV's daytime TV show 'This Morning' has been a hot topic over the past couple of weeks in May. After 21 years on the show, Phillip Schofield left with immediate effect, leaving Holly Willoughby to present alongside other members of the This Morning family. Reports of a rumoured 'rift' between Phillip and Holly, who are said to be 'barely speaking,' fueled the news. For more information on this developing story, head over to the Chatloop app.

Selling Sunset

Since its debut in 2019, Selling Sunset has become a favourite among many viewers. The show provides a glimpse into the lives of luxury real estate agents in Los Angeles and is renowned for its behind-the-scenes drama. Now in its sixth season, some fans are concerned that recent cast changes may alter the dynamic of the show. Join the conversation surrounding Selling Sunset on the Chatloop app.. 

Running Season

May has seen a surge in discussions about running, thanks to events like the London Marathon in late April and the recent Manchester Marathon. These races have inspired people to explore beginner's running tips and have marked the last races for legendary runner Mo Farah before his retirement. Running has undoubtedly given people plenty to talk about this month.
