A throng of Hollywood celebrities, including Academy Award-winning director Lee Daniels, Law & Order: Organized Crime star Chris Meloni, and actor John Leguizamo, many of them multi-millionaires made rich and famous thanks to the blessings afforded to them in America, crapped all over the country and sent somber social media sermons to their followers on Independence Day.
Former pop band member Aubrey O’Day posted a video to Instagram saying the felt “sick” after Sean “Diddy” Combs was not convicted on some of the most serious charges against him in court on Wednesday.
Pixar employees are convinced that the Disney Grooming Syndicate’s fourth flop of this year, Elio, bombed because the movie’s protagonist, 11-year-old Elio, had all his queerness stripped away in reshoots.
Yes, you read that correctly… The original version of Elio, an animated movie aimed directly at small children, portrayed an 11-year-old boy as “queer.”
Jurors reached a final verdict in Sean “Diddy” Combs’ federal sex-trafficking trial Wednesday in Manhattan.
They had agreed to a verdict on four of the five charges Tuesday against the disgraced hip-hop mogul, but told the judge they couldn’t come to a consensus on the top charge of racketeering conspiracy.
Looking good for prominent Democrat Diddy.
NEW YORK (AP) — The jury deliberating at Sean “Diddy” Combs ‘ sex trafficking trial asked Tuesday to review critical testimony from one of the prosecution’s most important witnesses: the hip-hop mogul’s former longtime girlfriend Cassie.
Jurors requested the testimony about 75 minutes into their second day of weighing charges that Combs used his fame, wealth and violence to force two girlfriends into drug-fueled sex marathons with male sex workers known as “freak-offs” or “hotel nights.”
The panel of eight men and four women asked for Cassie’s account of Combs beating, kicking and dragging her at a Los Angeles hotel in 2016 — an assault captured on now-infamous security camera footage.
Let’s just state the obvious: Hollywood still hasn’t learned a thing. After years of box-office flops and massive public backlash, the geniuses at Pixar and Disney are still convinced that what American families really want is another kids’ movie packed with lectures about “inclusivity” and “queer” identity. Newsflash: They don’t.
The federal government and Sean Combs’s defense team presented their closing arguments this week after extensive testimony in which the music mogul’s ex-girlfriends said they were pressured to have sex with male escorts in drug-dazed marathon sessions.
Mr. Combs is charged with sex trafficking, racketeering conspiracy and transportation to engage in prostitution, and has pleaded not guilty, saying the sexual encounters were consensual. Jurors are expected to begin deliberating on Monday, which will mark the eighth week of the trial in Federal District Court in Manhattan.
Snow White star Rachel Zegler admits a self-inflicted backlash over her Snow White comments sent her into something of a tailspin.
The backlash, of course, was of her own creation after the mouthy 24-year-old basically (and arrogantly) trashed the original Disney classic Snow White and the Seven Dwarfs as sexist. If that wasn’t enough, she wished real harm on President Trump and his supporters on Election Night (she later apologized). Then she added “Free Palestine” to a Xweet announcing the release of a Snow White trailer.
A survey of 246 “cinema owners and film professionals affiliated with exhibitors” found that more than half believe the “traditional cinema experience” will be dead as a viable business model within 20 years.
“Among other findings in the poll, nearly 90% of U.S. exhibition executives stated that their revenue has not recovered to pre-COVID levels,” reports the far-left Variety. “An overwhelming majority of them, 81%, also want an exclusive theatrical window on new releases lasting at least six weeks, while 77% believe that day-and-date streaming releases have a negative impact on the theatrical model.”
Prosecutors in New York are set to rest their case in the weeks-long federal sex-trafficking and racketeering trial of rapper Sean “Diddy” Combs.
The 55-year-old music mogul is accused of using his power as the leader of a business empire to facilitate the sex trafficking of women and conceal his crimes.
Mr Combs has admitted to domestic violence – but has pleaded not guilty to the prosecution’s charges, some of which rely on laws once aimed at mob bosses to try and bring him down.
The defence has yet to make its case – which Mr Combs’ attorneys have said will only take a couple days.
Whoopi Goldberg really stepped in it — just in time for last week’s Juneteenth federal holiday.
The aging, balding, previously-funny “comedienne” babbled wildly Wednesday on ABC’s far-Left “news” program, The View. During this daily hour of Anti-Trump Power, Goldberg questioned U.S. hostility to the Islamic Republic of Iran (even as President Donald J. Trump organized Saturday’s majestic act of gender-affirming care upon the mullahs’ atomic weapons program). Goldberg’s co-host, Alyssa Farah Griffin, an alumna of the Trump 45 White House, reminded her that “the Iranians literally throw gay people off of buildings. They don’t adhere to basic human rights.”
The Disney Grooming Syndicate’s box office problems continued this week, now that Elio has won the distinction of earning the lowest box office opening of any movie in Pixar’s 30-year history.
With a catastrophic $22 million opening, Elio earned less than even Pixar’s very first feature, 1995’s Toy Story, which opened to $29.1 million.
Jojo Siwa, the former Dance Moms star and pop sensation, says she came out as lesbian at 17-years-old after initially identifying sexually as a pansexual due, in part, from “pressure” from the LGBTQIAA+ community.
“When I came out at 17, I said, ‘I’m pansexual, because I don’t care [about gender].’ But then I kind of boxed myself in and I said, ‘I’m a lesbian.’ And I think I did that because of the pressure,” Siwa said in a recent interview with the Daily Mail.
HBO’s Sex and the City star Cynthia Nixon says her transgender child — whose grandparents were Holocaust survivors — is “on hunger strike” in support of Gaza.
Nixon’s 28-year-old daughter — who identifies as male and goes by the name Seph Mozes — is “on hunger strike right now” in support of Gaza in the ongoing Israel-Hamas war, the actress told Newsweek.
June 12 (UPI) — Former movie producer Harvey Weinstein won’t serve time on a third-degree rape charge after a mistrial was declared on Thursday, but he likely could be tried again.
Manhattan Supreme Court Judge Curtis Farber ruled the jury could not reach a unanimous verdict on the rape charge and declared a mistrial, the reported.
