This is the GoDaddy Ad Animal Activists Don’t Want You to See

Puppy Lovers hate this new GoDaddy commercial

Godaddy has pulled the ad they released on YouTube earlier this week from the Superbowl after animal rights activists freaked out over puppy cruelty issues. The commercial was supposed to make fun of “Lost Dog,” Budweiser’s critically acclaimed commercial, but apparently that was a big mistake.

The ad itself shows an adorable dog at which point it finds its owner, who is relieved because she had just sold the dog on her GoDaddy website and was about to have it next-day shipped.

Animal rights activists, however, don’t really like the joke. Or, instead they find puppies bought online is obviously coming from a puppy mill. The SPCA argued that the ad supported inhumane breeding, while Change.org asserted that the ad encouraged puppy mills.

“Puppies thrown in a cardboard box in the back of a pickup?” asked one anonymous commenter, according to Adweek. “Most likely being transported from puppy mill to broker since no mother in sight? No health tests on parents? Breeder too lazy for a proper kennel name?”

GoDaddy decided to pull the ad in response to the backlash, because you don’t spend millions of dollars on a commercial just to piss people off. Instead, the GoDaddy plans to air a backup ad during the Super Bowl.

Tina Fey reveals her worst audition ever.

In a video that was released nearly a year ago, Tina Fey reveals her worst audition ever and it’s a doozy. The video really explores Tina Fey’s journey to stardom.

Prior to landing several hit movies and becoming one of TV’s most watched actors, Tina Fey broke into comedy as a featured player in the Chicago-based improvisational comedy group The Second City. She then joined SNL as a writer, later becoming head writer and a performer, known for her position as co-anchor in the Weekend Update segment.

A few years later she co-starred in and wrote the screenplay for Mean Girls, which showed the world her acting, and comedic writing skills.

Check out the video of Tina Fey’s worst audition ever and maybe next time you won’t feel as bad when your audition goes to hell.

Indie filmmaker Alex Karpovsky, who plays Ray Ploshansky on HBO’s “Girls,” will star in the comedy “Folk Hero & Funny Guy,” which marks the directorial debut of actor-producer Jeff Grace (“It’s a Disaster”), according to reports.

The movie is a road trip buddy comedy about a struggling stand-up comic who goes on tour to open for his successful singer-songwriter pal.

Folk Hero and Funny Guy

“Folk Hero & Funny Guy” follows Paul and Jason, childhood friends who have drifted apart as they’ve reached their 30s. Jason is a good-looking and free spirited singer-songwriter whose career is taking off, while Paul (Karpovsky) is a struggling stand-up comedian whose once promising trajectory is now in decline. They reunite when Jason passes through town on his most recent tour. A night of drinking leads Jason to offer Paul the opportunity to serve as the opening act for his upcoming solo tour.  What Paul doesn’t know is that Jason has booked the tour himself in order to win back an old flame. Paul’s woes are the ideal opportunity for Jason to get his number one wingman back on board.

Watch the first scenes from ‘The Walking Dead’ spinoff.

‘The Walking Dead’ fans were able to catch a glimpse at the new spinoff, ‘Fear The Walking Dead,’ during the show’s 90 minute season 5 finale yesterday.

In the 15-second teaser, ‘Fear’ takes a closer look at something AMC’s ‘The Walking Dead’ never discussed, how the zombie apocalypse started.

“Reports in five states said a strange virus is going around, so if you’re not feeling well, go home and take care of yourselves,” says what sounds like a news reporter in the clip just before showing a zombie.

The companion series, which has been given two seasons before its premiere, has been extremely secret. The show got it’s name on Friday, and plot details have been mostly under wrarps. What has been revealed is that it will be set in Los Angeles with a different set of characters and storyline, and that it will take place in the first days of the zombie apocalypse before jumping forward in time.

Season one of “Fear the Walking Dead” is set to debut this summer with six episodes, and season two is set for next year. ‘Fear the Walking Dead’ will feature Cliff Curtis, Kim Dickens, Frank Dillane and Alycia Debnam Carey.

Disneyland Surveillance Cameras Catch Ghost Walking Around and It’s Amazing

A 2009 YouTube video has gone viral showing a grinning ghost walking around Disneyland’s Haunted Mansion and Rivers of America areas after hours. Disneyland is completely empty, giving the ghost a chance to walk around sidewalks, grass and through gates. The ghost even walks on water near the end of the video tape.

You may have to look closeley, but you can see something is walking around.

https://youtu.be/jnjibWcbV2o

Reddit user _littlehelll resurfaced the video on Friday. Users speculate the apparition may be the result of re-using VHS surveillance tapes. Some say it’s Walt Disney’s ghost, and others don’t know WHAT the heck is going on here.

One thing is for sure, this ghost isn’t waiting in line for hours to ride Space Mountain.

WATCH: Marlon Wayans’ Audition Tape for Richard Pryor Biopic

The role now belongs to Mike Epps, in an upcoming movie that will be directed by Lee Daniels (Empire) with Oprah Winfrey also attached to play Richard Pryor’s grandmother. But, when the movie was in early development, Marlon Wayans was tapped to play Richard Pryor in a film that Chris Rock was expected to produce. But, that was 5 years ago in 2010. When Rock wanted to make the movie he was shocked to see Marlons’ audition tape.

Lee Daniels has not really spoken publicly about the project, although he did point out that Chris Rock loved Marlon Wayans’ audition, however producers and casting directors loved Mike Epps’ performance even more.

There were several other actors that were tapped to audition for the role of Richard Pryor including Nick Cannon and Michael B. Jordan. However, the role was later given to Mike Epps.

Here’s the footage; the first half, I’m told, was written and directed by Bill Condon (director of films like “Dreamgirls” and “The Fifth Estate”); the second half is a Pryor monologue.

Check out the audition below:
