    Bow Wow and Rumored GF Angela Simmons Quit 'Growing Up Hip-Hop' for Something 'Unthinkable'

    BET

    Bow Wow’s departure arrives after Romeo Miller, who is involved in the alleged fake triangle love with Angela on the We TV show, was reported to leave the show earlier this month.
    Mar 13, 2020
    AceShowbiz – Bow Wow quits “Growing Up Hip Hop: Atlanta”. The rapper-turned-actor, who is among the longtime cast members of the We TV reality show, anounced his departure on Instagram Stories on Thursday, March 12, hinting that his rumored girlfriend Angela Simmons was leaving the show as well.
    “We done w/ Growing Up Hip Hop! We on the bigger and the better things!” so Bow Wow, whose real name is Shad Moss, wrote on the post. He went on to tag Angela, adding, “@angelasimmons let’s do the unthinkable.” He also added a GIF that read, “CANCELLED.”
    Fans, however, alluded that they couldn’t care less with the announcement. “He be announcing stuff like we care lmao,” one fan wrote, while someone else asked, “Who even watches that show?”
    Further blasting Bow Wow, another person said, “Never heard nobody say they watched a show cuz bow wow was on it.” Taking a dig at the rapper, a person noted, “Bye shad, you cancelled. That’s what’s really cancelled.” Another fan suggested that the show should have been canceled altogether because “the show ran its course.”
    Bow Wow’s departure arrives after Romeo Miller was reported to leave the show earlier this month. “Romeo nor his father (Master P) would never go against their morals for money for any network,” a source revealed to TheJasmineBrand. “He hasn’t been on much of this season and is focusing on his many businesses, career and his love life with new girlfriend.”
    The source went on to say, “Romeo has nothing against the cast, they’re just growing apart and he rather explore the truth not a fake love triangle that the network is dragging out.”
    Neither Romeo or We TV has yet to comment on the reports.

As insanely excited as we are for all of you to see this movie… I’m gonna wait to release the film til we CAN all see it together! So here’s to our group movie date! See you soon!”

    The release of the sequel to the 2018 hit, directed by Krasinski and starring his wife Emily Blunt, was delayed in Europe earlier this week (ends March 13).

    Broadway to Be Shut Down Until Mid-April Amid Coronavirus Pandemic

    https://www.broadway.com/

    New York’s theatre bosses, owners and union representatives have reportedly met to discuss the matter before Governor Andrew Cuomo announces a ban on gatherings of more than 500 people.
    Mar 13, 2020
    AceShowbiz – Broadway is going dark to keep actors, producers, theatre staff and fans safe amid the ongoing coronavirus chaos.
    All shows and plays will shut down from Thursday night (March 12) until April 12, according to officials at the Broadway League, a trade organisation representing producers and venue owners.
    New York’s theater bosses, owners, and union representatives met to discuss a possible month-long shutdown of all shows and plays on Thursday morning.
    Actors Equity union chiefs have been demanding the shut down for days, revealing members are concerned about contracting the virus.
    “Equity is driving this,” one producer told the New York Post. “If actors don’t feel safe, they don’t have to perform.”

    The news emerged hours after the producers of hit Broadway musical “Moulin Rouge!” cancelled Thursday’s performances amid unconfirmed reports a cast member had been exposed to the coronavirus.
    Theater bosses did not confirm why the matinee and evening performances were scrapped, but they initially insisted the show would go on at the Al Hirschfeld Theatre on Friday, as scheduled.
    That plan has since been scrapped as New York Governor Andrew Cuomo announced a ban on gatherings of more than 500 people. He also slapped restrictions on smaller events in an effort to fight the spread of COVID-19.
    All non-Broadway venues will have to abide by the order on Friday evening onwards.

    Mar 12, 2020
    AceShowbiz – “The Flash” star Grant Gustin has landed the role of Frank Sinatra Jr.’s kidnapper in a new independent movie.
    Businessman Barry Keenan infamously masterminded the abduction in 1963, but later bungled it badly and found himself behind bars for almost five years.
    Actor Joe Mantegna will direct the latest adaptation of the kidnap story, “Operation Blue Eyes”, from a screenplay by Bradley Barth and Joseph Nasser.
    David Arquette played Keenan, alongside William H. Macy and James Russo, in a 2003 TV movie about the drama, called “Stealing Sinatra”.
