Here’s When We Will Find Out What Happened to Glenn on ‘The Walking Dead’

Here’s when we will finally found out what happened to Glenn on The Walking Dead.

After the most recent episode of The Walking Dead, “Now” has finished, and no details have been provided to the season’s biggest question, it’s clear to see that showrunner Scott Gimple is milking the suspense as long as possible.

Last week’s flashback episode surrounded around Morgan’s transition from a psychopath into a ninja turtle a samurai warrior, and while it was major part of the show’s story arc, it left millions of fans wondering what was going to happen next.

Unfortunately, The Walking Dead Fans may have to wait until the end of November until we finally find out what happened to Glenn.

The Walking Dead
The Walking Dead 

This half season is taking place over the course of a single day, a day that began with the walkers escaping from the death valley and heading towards Alexandria. The second episode “JSS”, dealt with the Wolves attacking the Alexandrians. The third episode centered around Glenn and Michonne dealing with the zombie migration, ending with Glenn apparently getting eaten. The fourth episode centered around a flash back, and the fifth episode, “Now” returned to Alexandria where the zombies are starting to circle around Alexandria.

However, no one is going to go looking for Glenn until the zombies are destroyed. The zombies will probably won’t be removed until Daryl, Sasha and Abraham return, which will not happen until the sixth episode of The Walking Dead, where we will likely see Daryl deal with the zombie apocalypse that is following episode. The seventh episode will likely show their return to Alexandira and deal with the rest of the zombies, meaning no one is going to search for Glenn until the midseason finale.

So we will not know what happened to Glenn until after Thanksgiving on November 29th.

In the mean time you can continue to follow us, and will share with you the latest spoilers and Walking Dead news here.

Inside Kris Jenner’s $2 Million Birthday Party

Kris Jenner, momager and Kardashian ring leader, celebrated her 60th birthday party over the weekend and the family did it in true Kardashian style.

In a video posted on Kris Jenner’s YouTube channel on Saturday, the entire family including several of Hollywood’s biggest celebrities. The video starts off in 1985 and includes kid versions of her daughters Khloe, Kim, Kourtney and surprisingly O.J. Simpson. The video then fast forwards to Jenner/Kardashian lifestyle in 2015.

Surprisingly, Kanye West apparently forgot the lyrics to his own song during Kris Jenner’s birthday party.

Kanye West may sell out stadiums and millions of records, but the rapper may have to spend more time focusing on his music and not on his fashion line. According to Page Six, during Kris Jenner’s $2 million 60th birthday party, Kanye West forgot the lyrics to his own song.

From Page Six:

Spies told Page Six that singer Charlie Wilson was on stage at Jenner’s Great Gatsby-themed party over the weekend, crooning a tune he made famous with The Gap Band, “Outstanding” as his finale. But he then broke into West’s 2010 hit “See Me Now,” on which Wilson performed with Beyonce, and he passed the mike to West to take over. But West blanked. “Kanye said, ‘I don’t remember the words!’” said a spy. “So he started singing 50 Cent’s ‘In Da Club’ instead. The whole crowd was chanting [the song’s lyrics], ‘Go Shorty! It’s your birthday!’”

Guests at Kris Jenner’s birthday party included some of the biggest Hollywood celebrities including Chrissy Teigen, John Legend, Boy George, Tommy Hilfiger, and a ton of other celebrities.

One famous person was not in attedance, Caitlyn Jenner. However, Caitlyn did send his regards sitting in a hot tub.

Sharon Stone: I was Blacklisted By Hollywood After ‘Basic Instinct’

Sharon Stone bashes Hollywood’s pay gap, getting blacklisted, and working as a waitress in Hollywood.

Sharon Stone is an icon in the film industry. Ever since her 1990 sci-fi thriller, Total Recall, she became an internationally recognized actress. She would later star in one of the biggest movies of 1992, Basic Instinct. She would later be nominated for an Academy Award for Best Actress and won a Golden Globe Award for Best Actress in a Motion Picture Drama for role in the Martin Scorsese drama Casino. 

But, recently Sharon Stone is fighting Hollywood’s biggest problem, Hollywood’s pay gap and how she was blacklisted for years. “After Basic Instinct, no one wanted to pay me,” Stone told People. “I remember sitting in my kitchen with my manager and just crying and saying I’m not going to work until I get paid.” Sharon Stone says she was still paid way less than male actors even after landing a major acting role.

Sharon Stone also discussed working as an waitress just to pay the pills, even though she as an A-list actress. “I waited tables and scrubbed floors and everything else on the way up, and you must make the same, and it’s not cool that you don’t. She pointed out how the change “has to start with regular pay, not just for movie stars, but regular pay for the regular woman in the regular job.”

Sharon Stone is currently working on the new TNT series, Agent X, which she is also an executive producer. She spoke with TheWrap, about the switch from movies to TV. “I just think television kind of has more to offer right now,” actress tells TheWrap.

“Good film parts are less and less common, because the studios have less and less grip on how to bring people to film,” she continued. “They’ve used tentpole movies to such a degree that they’ve wiped out their own business. The film industry has kind of wiped itself out.”

The new TNT spy drama features Sharon Stone as Vice President Natalie Maccabee, a woman who pledges to protect the world “against all enemies, foreign and domestic,” but she releases that she has to undertake a mission to secretive for the FBI and CIA.

Sharon Stone is just one of several actresses who are calling out Hollywood’s history of paying woman less. Most recently, Hollywood’s highest paid actress, Jennifer Lawrence, blasted Hollywood for making her feel unwanted in an open essay.

[VIDEO] Donald Trump Raps to Drake in ‘SNL’ Hotline Bling Parody

Megan Diane
-
0

Despite critics bashing of Donald Trump’s appearance on Saturday Night Live, what is being the called the best skit on the SNL episode is the Drake parody of “Hotline Bling” music video.

In the sketch, starring Jay Pharoah as Drake, SNL poked fun at Drake’s dance moves from the viral music video released in October. “I’m proud of my dance moves,” he sings in the parody. “Because lots of people dance like this. Bet your father dance like me.”

The music video compares Drake’s dancing to that of a dad, a physics teacher and a drunk sports fan.

Donald Trump pops up and gives a sneak performance as one of the “tax guys” who can dance as well as the rapper in the Hotline Bling music video. He even gives a shout out to Drake by singing one of his lyrics, while he dances with Jay Pharoah, Taran Killam, Bobby Moynihan and Beck Bennett.

Martin Short also give a guest appearance as he plays Ed Grimley, a former character from the Saturday Night Live cast.

But, Donald Trump’s appearance on SNL has been bashed by critics calling it a low point for the NBC comedy series.

Daniel Hollway from TheWrap:

Nobody who watched Trump host the show in 2004, or who knows good comedy, or who has two working eyes and basic motor skills, tuned into this episode because he or she expected it to be good. And it was not.

A sketch sketch featuring Trump as a member of a funk band was bad in the way that only the worst “SNL” sketches can be, the kind that send viewers to the refrigerator or to bed.

We will have to wait and see how this will affect Donald Trump’s run in the the Republican primary.

MTV ‘The Hills’ Reality Star Reveals Dark Side to Reality TV

Reality star, Audrina Patridge (MTV’s The Hills) reveals the secrets behind working on a reality show.

When I was in high school Laguna Beach and The Hills were some of the most popular reality TV shows to ever rock my small high school classroom. Classmates all discussed their favorite reality star couples and what they would do if they were in their shoes. Frankly, a lot of the high school drama started to mirror episodes recently aired on MTV’s popular west coast reality series. But, years later, reality TV is dying and millions of people have moved on from the cast of The Hills and are now Keeping Up with the Kardashians.  But, one Hills reality star recently stepped out of the shadows to say that she will never let her kids do reality TV.

According to FoxNews.com, Audrina Patridge, best known for her role on MTV’s The Hills, opened up with Fox411 about her experiences on the reality series and she revealed that it’s not all that it’s cracked up to be.

“You completely lose all privacy,” Patridge told Fox News. “Everything you do and everything you say — everything is public and everybody is entitled to your life and putting an opinion on it and judging it. It kind of makes it hard. I made some silly decisions, and I had to do it on TV and it was a fine line between real and fake.”

Ultimately, she says the show made her tougher but also made her realize that she cannot trust anyone. “I was way too naive and too trusting and too nice,” she admitted. “You can’t just trust everyone.”

But, most importantly she revealed that she will never let her kids do a reality show. “I’m too protective and I know too much about it. I would never let my kids go into that.”

She is not alone. Justin Bieber recently called out the experience of being famous in Hollywood can have a detrimental impact on your psyche. For example, In an interview with Billboard magazine, Bieber said that Kylie Jenner’s personality has completely changed by growing up in front of a camera. “Look at her world. She has been living on TV since she was a kid. Everytime she’s looking around she sees a camera, and that’s affecting how she’s thinking and how she’s perceiving people and why she has to do certain things.  Situations that happen taint your mind, especially in this industry. Especially for girls.”

$500,000 Photos and 5 Things You Never Knew About the Paparazzi

The paparazzi reveal secrets to landing photos of celebrities!

The paparazzi are everywhere. If you are a celebrity working in Hollywood and New York City, then you are constantly coming into contact with photographers trying to get the best photo of America’s most beloved/hated celebrities.

5. What is the paparazzi?

Kevin Hart (TMZ)
Kevin Hart (TMZ)

According to Webster dictionary, paparazzi is “a photographer who follows famous people in order to take their pictures and then sells the pictures to newspapers or magazines”.

4. And the paparazzi are not the most liked group of people in Hollywood.

Paparazzi
Paparazzi

Kanye West is known for openly criticizing the paparazzi. In fact, West got into an altercation with a photographer and was later criminally charged. TMZ broke the story, Kanye was criminally charged with misdemeanor battery and pled no contest. He’s currently on probation. The attorney representing the photographer assaulted in the incident said the following after Kanye West apologized. “We believe that this case sent an important message. Celebrities are not above the law, and they have no right to physically attack someone simply because they were asked a question.”

Kanye West is not alone. Halle Berry promoted an Anti-paparazzi bill that was later turned into a law in California. Senate Bill 606, the Anti-Paparazzi bill, asked for an increase in penalties for anyone attempting to record or photograph a child because of their parent or guardian’s employment in a manner that “seriously alarms, annoys, torments, or terrorizes” them.

3. But, what are benefits to becoming a paparazzo?

According to a report by the NYPost, it’s a social-media hustle that can come with a $25,000 paycheck for the right picture.

2. Paparazzi finds celebrities on social media

Rihanna
Rihanna

Thanks to Instagram, Twitter, and Facebook, paparazzi are following celebrities in order to gain hints about their location. Then photographers travel outside of their hotel, restaurant, or home in order to land the perfect picture.

From NYPost:

It was the “get” of the week: the first picture of Hannah Davis’ engagement ring from Yankee icon Derek Jeter.

“I was looking for them since the engagement rumors started,” said paparazzo Miles Diggs, who runs 247Paps.TV with his partner, Cesar Peña.

They monitored Twitter and Instagram for sightings until “she finally slipped up,” Diggs said.

On Halloween night, Davis posted a photo to Instagram: her dressed as an angel in a pink wig; him in a devil costume.
The next morning, he posted himself outside the hotel.Although she didn’t name the hotel, Diggs noticed distinctly patterned carpet and curtains in the background. He trawled Midtown hotel Web sites until he found rooms advertised with the same interior design.

“He came out first, then she finally came out and showed off that big ring,” Diggs recalled.

Snap! A $25,000 picture.

That’s right. The paparazzi are following your favorite celebrities on social media in order to guess where they are currently hiding. And if they are luckily enough, the paparazzi can land huge exclusive photo that can be sold online for thousands of dollars.

1. Photos are worth a lot of money but, social media is making it harder.

However, social media is making the value of paparazzi photos less valuable. “A picture that now costs $400 was worth $15,000 to $20,000” before Instagram, Peña told NYPost. “It was harder to get pictures, harder to get stories.”

BONUS: Paparazzi has secret agents

But, what about instances when celebrities don’t post photos on Instagram or on social media? How do the paparazzi figure out how where the celebrities are hiding out? Apparently, secret agents that pose as fans are constantly on the look out in certain neighborhoods.

Many of their tips come from what Diggs and Peña call their “little agents,” a half-dozen teens and college kids they’ve befriended who stalk celebs to take selfies with them.

No cash is exchanged, but Diggs and Peña will tip off the little agents when they spot their favorite celebrities.

“Their cut is being part of my crew. And they understand that,” Peña said.

People are Pissed Off with Spike Lee’s ‘Chi-Raq’ Movie

Dozens of people are pissed off with Spike Lee’s new movie Chi-Raq. 

If you didn’t already know, the main plot is based on the Ancient Greek play Lysistrata

Here’s a quick summary from Sparknotes:

Lysistrata has planned a meeting between all of the women of Greece to discuss the plan to end the Peloponnesian War. As Lysistrata waits for the women of Sparta, Thebes, and other areas to meet her she curses the weakness of women. Lysistrata plans to ask the women to refuse sex with their husbands until a treaty for peace has been signed. Lysistrata has also made plans with the older women of Athens (the Chorus of Old Women) to seize the Akropolis later that day. The women from the various regions finally assemble and Lysistrata convinces them to swear an oath that they will withhold sex from their husbands until both sides sign a treaty of peace.

Spike Lee released a video on Friday once again defending his new movie, Chi-Ra, after Chicago residents found the movie offensive.

“GOOD MORNIN’ CHICAGO. A Few Chosen Words From Me, Spike Lee,” he tweeted along with the 3-minute Vimeo video, in which he clarifies that the gangster film is “not a comedy,” in response to those who feel it is making light of violence in the city.

“There are very humorous moments in the trailer. Now some people are getting it twisted and think that this is a comedy. ‘Chi-Raq’ is not a comedy. ‘Chi-Raq’ is a satire and there is a difference between humor and comedy,” Lee said. “In no way, shape or form are we not respectful of the situation that is happening in ‘Chi-Raq.’ In no way, shape or form are we making light of the lives that have been murdered with his senseless violence. People, don’t get it twisted.”

Chicago rapper Rhymefest told Chicago Tribune that he is among several people offended by the trailer for the feature film starring Nick Cannon, Jennifer Hudson, John Cusasck, Wesley Snipes and Samuel L. Jackson.

“I think it’s irresponsible,” Rhymefest said. “The overwhelming majority of people on the South and West Side believe this is foolishness,” the rapper said.

But, Rhymefest is not alone. Here are just a few of the complaints:

Critics Bash Angelina Jolie, Brad Pitt’s New Movie ‘By the Sea’

Critics are bashing Angelina Jolie and Brad Pitt’s new drama, By The Sea. 

Angelina Jolie’s new movie By the Sea premiered at AFI Fest on Thursday night, and the critics who attended the screening pretty much hated it.

According to Rotten Tomatoes, 1 out 7 reviews counted so far say the is garbage.

Justin Chang from Variety called the movie, “An unabashed vanity project that struggles to turn its own beautiful inertia into a virtue.”

Todd McCarthy from THR said By the Sea was “This languid piece of would-be art cinema will prove once again that even the biggest names in the world won’t draw an audience to something that, in and of itself, has no reason for being.”

In addition, TheWrap’s Alonso Duralde said By The Sea “Plays like an unconscious parody of Last Year at Marienbad, L’avventura and any number of other 1960s European dramas about beautiful people having existential crises on yachts and in villas.”

Ouch.

This could be bad news for Universal Pictures which is planning on spending $10 million in marketing in the United States alone with hopes of turning this melo-drama into an Oscar winner.

By the Sea centers around a relationship gone sour. With their marriage in trouble, an American writer (Brad Pitt) and his wife (Angelina Jolie Pitt) make new connections at a French resort.

Saturday Night Live with Donald Trump – 3 Facts You Should Know

Donald Trump is headed to Saturday Night Live this Saturday and it is already creating a shit storm.

Trump announced his candidacy for president of the United States in the 2016 elections on June 16, 2015, from his headquarters in Trump Tower in New York City.

Trump launched his campaign declaring the official slogan, “We are going to make our country great again” with a commitment to become the “greatest jobs president that God ever created”.

Since then, Donald Trump’s political campaign is in full swing and with a year left before the Presidential election, Donald Trump is the front runner dominating the polls and beating Ben Carson, the former Republic primary leader.

In order to prepare for this mega event, I have sat down and gone through 3 things you should know about Donald Trumps appearance on Saturday Night Live.

1. Donald Trump turned down certain skits.

According to reports, Donald Trump told reports that he turned down risque SNL sketch ideas. “I had to. There were a couple that were too risqué,” he told O’Reilly in an interview for “The O’Reilly Factor.” “Because you know, the poll just came down, I’m leading in Iowa, I want to stay leading in Iowa.”

But, this is not uncommon to have some back and forth with writing staff in the days leading up to the Saturday Night Live broadcast. As Variety pointed out, writers throw out dozens of ideas before an episode ever airs.

“They have 100 writers,” Trump told O’Reilly. “I walk into the room, there are 100 – and they’re all about 17 years old, OK? They’re all young and all up in your face. But they come up with many, many skits and you pick the ones you think you like.”

2. Protestors target Donald Trump at SNL

Activists plan to protest Donald Trump’s appearance on Saturday Night Live this weekend and are calling out the cast members for not supporting them. This protest stems from the Donald Trump’s hardline stance against illegal immigration and past derogatory statements made against Mexicans.

In June, Donald Trump said that Mexico sends immigrants to the United States who are “bringing drugs” and are “rapists”

“He doesn’t deserve an additional 90-minute campaign ad,” said Justin Krebs of the liberal group Move On, which collected 150,000 signatures on a petition against Mr. Trump’s appearance.

Donald Trump ignored these protests saying his appearance will boost Saturday Night Live Ratings.

3. Saturday Night Live is on high alert for hecklers.

Despite having Secret Service security detail and an “audience vetting process” Trump’s appearance could spark outbursts on live TV.

According to The Hollywood Reporter, protestors are rumored to sneak onto set of Saturday Night Live and will heckle the Presidential Republican Frontrunner.

In fact, Los Angeles activist, Luke Montgomery is offering $5000 to anyone that says “deport racism” or “Trump is a racist” on the air.

From THR:

The Los Angeles-based activist and founder of the anti-Trump campaign Deport Racism 2016 is offering $5,000 to anyone in the studio audience heard saying “deport racism” or “Trump is a racist” on the air. The group is one of several protesting Trump’s SNL appearance over “racist and xenophobic language” they say he’s used throughout his campaign — with Latinos and Latino-Americans targeted in particular. Montgomery’s is the only group, however, that is not calling on the network to cancel his appearance, but rather is encouraging hecklers to infiltrate and hijack the event.

Chloe Grace Moretz will star in the upcoming Universal live-action movie, The Little Mermaid. 

According to reports, Richard Curtis from Love, Actually, is completing his deal to write the script for the film, which is based on the fairy tale written by Hans Christian Anderson.

The original story centers around a mermaid who saves a mwn from drowning and falls in love with him.

While the movie’s title has not been officially released, Universal has been working on this movie for a long time.

Sophia Coppola was initially expected to direct The Little Mermaid, but left due to creative differences. In addition, Universal wanted to cast a known star to appear in the movie while Sophia Coppola was interested in finding an unknown actress to play The Little Mermaid. 

And it’s no surprise Universal chose Moretz. She has been the go-to actress for the last 5 years. She will appear in the upcoming Neighbors 2: Sorority Rising, and The Fifth Wave, two movies that both filmed in Atlanta, Georgia.

There is no word when or where filming will take place on The Little Mermaid.

Why Actors Are More Likely to Fall in Love on Set

Are you an actor? Is your significant other an actor? Well sit down, I have some news for you, actors are psychologically more likely to fall in love on set.

According to a psychology research study, a stage kiss is more than just a kiss.

It happens all the time. Two actors make a movie together in which they are playing lovers and reports later surface that they are in love. They break up with their partners to be together. And it all happened when actors were playing people in love, and had to act as if they were in love for weeks on end.

While there is no denying that people who play characters in love often fall in love in real life, for example, Brad Pitt and Angelina Jolie after Mr. and Mrs. Smith. But, is it because they were pretending to be in love and those feelings turned into reality? Or is it because actors are forced to spend long hours in a small place with the same person?

Are actors more likely to fall in love with their co-workers more than a regular 9 to 5 jobs?

According to a report by Psychology Today, the answer is yes.

Dr. John D. Mayer, Professor of Psychology and one of the original researchers behind Emotional Intelligence revealed the effects of kissing in front of the camera.

He claims that “Science knows!” whether actors are “faking it” for the screen. He proposes that actors must change their personalities to match the personalities of those they play, and that only a few actors work from the “outside in,” using physicality to portray a character. Instead, he writes, most actors rearrange their mental lives and emotions in order to portray character.

Consequently, it depends on the acting style. Technical actors, actors that concentrate on movement rather than emotion, are less likely to be affected by a stage kiss or starring in a romantic comedy. However, method actors, actors that use emotions to drive the character, are more likely to fall in love with their cast members.

In addition, the fact that method actors have to constantly put themselves in emotionally traumatic situations leaves actors more open to levels of stress a normal person could not typically handle. Which is why many psychologists speculate why so many actors suffer from some sort of mental illness.

Overall, audiences are looking for realism when they watch a movie or TV show. When casting directors are deciding which actor would be perfect for the lead role, actors are forced to push the limits in order to create an interesting an entertaining experiences for audiences. However, certain acting styles can have a permanent effect on not only the actor but, the supporting cast and crew as well.
