Hollywood

You had to figure that Disney’s live(ish)-action Snow White reboot would lose money, but even my eyes watered when I read this morning that the oft-derided musical lost about $170 million. But get this, had Disney not produced the movie in the U.K. — and received a reported $65 million (!!!) in tax credits — then Snow White would have lost the Mouse House a jaw-dropping $235 million…

Rachel Zegler is every bit that unlikeable.

KISS co-founder Gene Simmons says rap and hip-hop artists have no place in the Rock & Roll Hall of Fame, outlining the unrelatable nature of the genre, “I don’t come from the ghetto, it doesn’t speak my language.”

Hollywood as we know it is sick — not the kind of sick you might usually think of with the woke agenda pushing, child-actor grooming, and all the rest — but the “sick and dying” kind of sick.

Netflix’s Chief Global Affairs Officer warned Monday that Hollywood will suffer billions of dollars worth of job losses if rival Paramount Skydance succeeds in buying Warner Bros. Discovery out from under the streaming giant’s buyout bid.

For the second year in a row, the Grammy Awards took a dive in the ratings, primarily due to a collapse in younger viewers.

On Sunday, only 14.4 million people tuned into a show that regularly drew somewhere between 25 and 40 million viewers from 2016 to 2019.

Sunday’s 14.4 million represents the fourth-worst ratings in Grammy history, only ahead of 2021’s 9.23 million, 2022’s 9.59 million, and 2023’s 12.55 million.

When hosting the Golden Globes in 2020, Ricky Gervais delivered a delicious demolition of Hollywood’s political pretensions, telling his A-list audience: ‘if you do win an award tonight, don’t use it as a platform to make a political speech. You’re in no position to lecture the public about anything. You know nothing about the real world. Most of you spent less time in school than Greta Thunberg. So, if you win, come up, accept your little award, thank your agent, and your God, and fuck off’. Sadly, it seems the message didn’t sink in.

Awards season is upon us once again, meaning saturated coverage of Tinseltown. The self-congratulatory tone of it all is bad enough, but somehow these overpaid luvvies can’t resist using award ceremonies as a chance to lecture us mere mortals.

A bank is set to take over ownership of an historic Los Angeles TV and film studio because the current owner has defaulted on the $1.1 billion loan, as Hollywood continues its collapse.

Goldman Sachs is reportedly on the verge of taking control of the famous Radford Studio Center in Studio City, California, because Hackman Capital Partners (HCP) can’t seem to come up with the cash to stay current on its mortgage, according to The Wrap.

Washington, D.C. (AFP) – Sean “Diddy” Combs, who is serving a four-year prison sentence for prostitution-related crimes, has asked Donald Trump for a pardon, but the US president said he does not plan to grant clemency to the hip-hop star.
