And that’s not all. In the realm of...

“Camp Quarantine”: Tyler Perry’s Cheat Code For Filming During A Pandemic

The rewarding efforts cost the guy a couple of million, but we all know his money is long. Have you seen Tyler Perry Studios? In an exclusive interview with Variety, Perry goes into detail about his blueprint. Whether on or offset, masks have to be worn at all times. “I made sure that the cast and crew and everybody wore their masks when they weren...

Data Shows NYPD Targeting People Of Color With Alcohol Summonses
Source: NurPhoto / Getty Restaurants and bars are still limited in the option of hosting patrons inside thus outside has become the new social playground. Even in this era of inconvenience, the law is making it clear that Black and Brown folks are still the hunted. As spotted on The Gothamist a new report is showing that people of color are getting ticketed for public alcohol consumption in New York City at a staggering rate. Even more alarming, but shouldn’t come to anyone at as a surprise, is that Blacks and Hispanics are being disproportionately fined. Since January 2020 1,250 locals have been hit with summonses for boozing outside but Blacks and Hispanics make up almost 90% of the offenders. Only 7% were whites. Obliviously the numbers skewed against us prompting the heavy side ey...

Seth Rogen Says He Was “Fed a Huge Amount of Lies About Israel”
Seth Rogen pissed off North Korea with some truthiness in The Interview, and now he’s sparked similar backlash with recent comments about Israel. His remarks came during an interview on Marc Maron’s WTF Podcast, ostensibly about the actor’s forthcoming HBO Max movie, An American Pickle. The film sees Rogen portray a Jewish immigrant who finds himself in Brooklyn in the early 1900s. When he falls into a pickle vat, the brine preserves him for a century, emerging to meet his grandson (also portrayed by Rogen), a secular Jew of the modern age. As Rogen and Maron are both Jewish, much of the conversation centered around their own experience with Judaism and identity. While much of the discussion was comedic and nuanced, some of the remarks have stirred controversy. When the idea of reloca...
