‘Hot Felon’ Has a Photo Shoot While on House Arrest

‘Hot Felon’ Jeremy Meeks is on house arrest but, still manages to have a photo shoot.

Imagine you were arrested on Monday and by Tuesday you have modeling agencies looking to sign you. Well that happened to Jeremy Meeks. You may remember back in March, news about that “hot felon” Jeremy Meeks went viral after his mugshot was posted to Facebook by the Stockton Police two years ago. Well, Meeks has been released from his 27 month jail sentence and is ready to start his modeling career.

At the time, Meeks’ agent said this about his potential modeling career, “We’re putting everything in place. We’re in talks with a lot of different agencies. There’s movies on the table. We have a lot of different things happening.”

Meeks’ new talent agent is trying to boost his new talent’s modeling career from the boundaries imposed by his probation officer. According to Daily Mail, Meeks is under house arrest until July 7 but, that hasn’t stopped him from having a photo shoot in his kitchen or driveway.

Check out the photos below.

End of my driveway is as far as I can go ? #housearrest

5 Best Atlanta Bars and Restaurants to Meet Celebrities

Want to know where celebrities hang out in Atlanta? Here’s where you should go.

Georgia’s film industry is growing every day. As more and more producers and network executives decide to film in Atlanta, hundreds of celebrities are moving to the ATL. That means it’s even easier to hang out with A-list actors, if you live in the Peach State.

But, where should you go to to find actors, models, and Hollywood A-listers? There are thousands of bars and restaurants in Atlanta. But, here are the 5 best bars and restaurants in Atlanta to meet celebrities.

1. Clermont Lounge

Clermont Lounge

Some of the biggest Hollywood A-listers have gone to the Clermont Lounge. In fact, Jennifer Lawrence, Morgan Freeman, and Lady Gaga all went to the strip club/dive bar while they were visiting Atlanta. Basically, every celebrity who visits Atlanta goes to the Clermont Lounge. This is a must for anyone looking to bump shoulders with Hollywood elite.

It’s only nature…

2. STK

STK has amazing food, amazing ambience and service, which explains why Vince Vaughn, Denzel Washington, Selena Gomez, Zac Efron, Jessica Alba, Chris Evans, and Scarlett Johansson have all been seen eating there.

3. 10 Degrees South

While 10 Degrees south may not look like a go to place for Hollywood A-listers, some of the biggest celebrities go here on a regular including Usher.

4. South City Kitchen

Want to hang out with Kim Kardashian? Well, the best place to eat, relax and bump into celebrities will have to be South City Kitchen. Kanye West, Kim Kardashian, Charles Barkley and Tom Hanks have all been spotted at the restaurant.

Sunday Brunch #southcitykitchen #buckhead #atlantafoodie #betchesthatbrunch #atlanta

5. Bone Lick BBQ

Many people say Bone Lick BBQ has the best wings in the ATL. But, it’s not your typical restaurant. Bone Lick features old-school arcade games, skee-ball, and chalk for bathroom graffitti. Celebrities tend to pop up while they are in between filming scenes for their movies and TV shows. In fact, Jon Hamm, Zach Galifianakis, Ashton Kutcher, and Mila Kunis were all spotted at this West Midtown hotspot.

6. Magic City

If you are looking for more of an adventure, then you should definitely check out Magic City. In the hip-hop community, Magic City is synonymous with Atlanta. Nearly every Atlanta rapper, producer, and entertainment professional has stopped by or frequently visits Magic City. Keep in in mind Magic City is not for the faint of heart or the broke.

you danced all night girl you deserve it ?

2012 Documentary Shows Orlando Shooter Before the Shooting

Omar Mateen, Orlando nightclub shooter, appeared in the award winning 2012 documentary The Big Fix.

“The Big Fix” was a major documentary. It won several awards in 2012 after covering the 2010 BP oil spill. But, did you know the Orlando shooter, Omar Mateen, was featured in the documentary?

According CBS, Omar Mateen worked as a security guard contracted to security company G4S following the 2010 BP oil spill and he was interviewed for the documentary.

“No one gives a s*** here. Everybody’s just, get out to get paid. They’re like hoping for more oil to come out and more people to complain so they’ll have jobs,” Mateen tells a reporter. “They want more disaster to happen.”

Six years later, Omar Mateen would work as a guard in a gated community in Florida. He then went home, only to go back out and kill 49 people at a gay nightclub in Orlando, Florida. During the nightclub massacre, Omar would go on Facebook declare his allegiance to ISIS, call 911 tell the operator this was a terrorist attack and call a news station about the attack. “Then he started saying he did it for the Islamic State, he did it for ISIS and he started speaking in Arabic,” said Matthew Gentili, a News 13 TV producer who received a call from Mateen.

According to CBS, the FBI has been speaking with the owners of other clubs in the area. In fact, Michael Bass, club operator at the gay club “Revere” says he received a Facebook friend request from Mateen three days before the shooting. “I saw that picture that morning of the incident. I swallowed my tongue. It was Omar Mateen,” Bass said.

Chicago AD Allegedly Psychologically, Physically Abused Actors

0

Chicago Art Director allegedly abused the actors and crew at a popular theater company.

A new report from the Chicago Reader is revealing the dark side behind acting. Aimee Levitt and Christopher Piatt chronicle abuse allegedly perpetrated over the course of decades by the artistic director at one of the most popular and highly respected theater company, Profiles Theatre Company.

According to reports, Artistic Director Darrell W. Cox allegedly suffered physical and psychological abuse. Over 30 members of the Profile Theatre company were interviewed and “described in disturbingly similar terms what they suffered or witnessed while working at the theater.”

From Chicago Reader:

Others in key roles in the theater, they say, did little if anything to stop it or turned a blind eye altogether. Although the source material Profiles favored was often violent and misogynistic, the quality of its shows and the critical acclaim they garnered—coupled with a culture of fear and silence that developed inside the theater—allowed bad behavior to flourish behind the scenes, unbeknownst to audiences or the media.

Chicago Reader also interviewed former girlfriends of Cox’s who say he was abusive. In addition, co-stars say he went too far in performing the often violent scenes in order to push the boundaries of art and reality. The actors claim that the company lied about having women on their artistic directing teams to make themselves look better, and had its employees work hours that were too long.

Profile Theatre Company responded by saying, “We take personnel issues very seriously, but we will not comment on groundless allegations.”

Chicago’s acting and theater scene is a major attraction. Many TV networks have decided to move their TV shows to the Windy City, which has given aspiring Chicago actors more opportunities to succeed in the growing film industry. However, if these allegations are true, it’s scary to think that actors are victims of physical and psychological abuse at the hands of someone who was interested in pushing the boundaries of art and reality.

Alligator Grabs 2-Year into Water Near Disney Resort

0

Orlando authorities are currently searching Disney resort waters to find the toddler who was attacked by an alligator.

Authorities are looking for a child who was dragged into the water by an alligator near Disney’s Grand Floridian Resort a & Spa in Orlando. According to reports, the Orange County Sheriff’s Office spokeswoman, Rose Silva, says a 2-year-old was dragged into Seven Seas Lagoon near the resort at about 9:30 p.m. ET on Tuesday.

During a press conference, Jerry Demings from the Orange County Sheriff’s office confirmed the toddler is a boy and is on vacation with his family from Nebraska.

His father attempted to save his son from the alligator, but was unsuccessful, according to Demings. The alligator was described as six to seven feet long. He added that about 50 law enforcement professionals are searching for the boy.

After receiving a 911 call, local emergency services responded to the area and began to work with the Orange County Sheriff’s office to find the boy and the alligator, said Demings, who added Disney is working with the Orange County authorities with the investigation.

“As a father and a grandfather,” said Demings, “we’re going to hope for the best in these circumstances, but based upon my 35 years of law enforcement experience, we know we have some challenges ahead of us at this time.”

“Everyone here at the Walt Disney World Resort is devastated by this tragic accident,” said Jacquee Wahler, spokeswoman for Walt Disney World Resort. “Our thoughts are with the family. We are helping the family and doing everything we can to assist law enforcement.”

This news comes after Disney donated $1 million to the victims of the Orlando nightclub shooting in Orlando, Florida and Disney opens their new resort in China.
