Tea might be spilled about it (5)

I believe the answer is:

drama

(Other definitions for drama that I've seen before include "Highly emotional episode" , "Emotional sequence of events (made out of a crisis?)" , "Serious play" , "interesting spectacles?" , "Play; emotional event" .)

I've seen this clue in the USA Today.
