And since the girls are not good friends, it's fine if they aren't up on the latest. It will open their minds to the idea that they don't know everything. This, or when they ask how old she is, reply, "She's going into seventh grade." Kind of like how people respond to "How far away is TownA from TownB?" with, "Three and a half hours." Not exactly answering the question that was asked, but giving pertinent information nevertheless. I don't have much insight, as my kids are nowhere near this age yet, but catty neighborhood politics can be pretty ridiculous.
