    'RHOA': Kandi Burruss 'Desperate' to Get a Spin-off Show

    Bravo

    According to a new report, the 43-year-old reality TV star wants Bravo to give her a spin-off series as the network starts to fire OG Housewives from the Bravo franchises.
    Feb 12, 2020
    AceShowbiz – “The Real Housewives of Atlanta” star Kandi thinks that her time on the Bravo show won’t be long. According to a new report, the TV star wants Bravo to give her a spin-off series as the network starts to fire OG Housewives from the Bravo franchises.
    “She is worried that her time on RHOA is coming to an end,” an insider explains to RadarOnline. The source notes that the reality star recently “pitched a spinoff show about her growing family and her businesses.”
    “Kandi wants to stay on TV, and she thinks her own family drama is something that viewers would want to see,” the insider continues. Thankfully, her family was fully supportive for her should Bravo greenlight the planned show. “Mama Joyce, Todd [Tucker] and her manager, Don Juan, are all on board,” says the source.
    Kandi’s anxiety over her future on the show is understandable. Bravo recently fired “The Real Housewives of Orange County” stars Vicki Gunvalson and Tamra Judge, who were both making over $1million per season.
    Tamra announced her departure on Saturday, January 25. Speaking to PEOPLE, Tamra, who had been on the show for 12 seasons, said, “It’s been a wild ride, and after all these years, I’m looking forward to life away from the cameras. I was offered a chance to come back to the show in a limited role, but would prefer to walk away on my own terms.”
    Meanwhile, co-star Vicki Gulvalson shared that she left the show on Friday, January 24. “I will always be the OG of the OC, but it’s time to say goodbye to ‘The Real Housewives of Orange County’,” the 57-year-old wrote on Instagram, before referencing her famous party catchphrase. “It’s been an incredible ride for 14 years and I want to thank all of you for your support, for your love and for ‘whooping it up!’ ”

    Donald Trump's Son Eric Blames 'Smug Elitists' Like Brad Pitt for Oscars Low Ratings

    WENN/Instar/Avalon

    Commenting on the 2020 Academy Awards ratings which hit an all-time low, the second son of the president calls out the ‘Once Upon a Time in Hollywood’ actor and others for their political speeches at the ceremony.
    Feb 12, 2020
    AceShowbiz – Donald Trump’s son Eric Trump has singled out Brad Pitt for his political speech at the 2020 Academy Awards. Calling the 56-year-old actor one of “smug elitists,” the third-eldest child and the second son of the president blamed him for the Oscars low ratings.
    On late Monday, February 10, Eric shared on his Instagram page Fox Business’ post that featured a photo of Brad at the 92nd annual prize-giving event, with the caption, “Oscars ratings fall 25% to all-time low.” Weighing in on audience’s lack of interest in the live ceremony, the executive vice president of the Trump Organization wrote, “Probably because Americans don’t liked to be preached to by smug elitists. The elegance has been lost and America has tuned these people out of their homes…”
    Agreeing with the 36-year-old businessman, one follower wrote in the comment section, “I proudly do not watch any awards shows for that reason.” Another further slammed Hollywood stars as writing, “A waste of time. I didn’t watch it. The actors don’t like us just our money. Stop watching their movies. Then they may care what we think.”
    Sharing the same opinion, a third user commented, “I don’t doubt it. Hollywood is sold out to the Demonocrats.” Another added, “You are absolutely correct, sir!!!! ‘Ain’t nobody got time for that crap!’ ”
    While accepting the Oscar for Best Supporting Actor, his first-ever acting Oscar, Brad addressed the Senate’s impeachment acquittal of President Trump. “They told me I only have 45 seconds up here, which is 45 seconds more than the Senate gave John Bolton this week,” he began his speech, referencing the former national security adviser who was not allowed to testify by the Senate during the proceedings.
    He then joked that “Once Upon a Time in Hollywood” helmer Quentin Tarantino, might make a film about the controversial hearings. “I’m thinking maybe Quentin does a movie about it and in the end, the adults do the right thing,” he added.
    Despite the historical night that witnessed “Parasite” big win, the Oscars telecast only averaged 23.6 million viewers on Sunday night, the smallest audience ever in the show’s history. The ratings fell 20 percent in year-to-year viewers from 29.56 million for last year’s ceremony.

    'The Hunt' Gets March Release Date After Delay Over 2019 Mass Shootings

    Universal Pictures

    Directed by Craig Zobel and starring Hilary Swank and Betty Gilpin, this thriller movie revolves around a group of wealthy liberals who hunt lower-class people they’ve kidnapped for sport.
    Feb 12, 2020
    AceShowbiz – “The Hunt”, the movie thriller that was shelved last year over fears it would trigger violent clashes, will finally be released next month (March).
    Following criticism from U.S. President Donald Trump and many of his Republican party leaders, movie bosses at Universal agreed to pull the film, which revolves around a group of wealthy liberals who hunt lower-class people they’ve kidnapped for sport.
    The film’s fiercest critics suggested the movie would “inflame and cause chaos” upon its release, but now Universal-Blumhouse executives are using the fuss to fuel interest in the film, sharing that “the most talked about movie of the year is one that no one’s actually seen”, according to Deadline.
    Directed by Craig Zobel and written by Damon Lindelof and Nick Cuse, the movie is led by Hilary Swank and Betty Gilpin.
    “The Hunt” was originally set to open in August (19), shortly after mass shootings in Texas, Ohio, and California.
    Movie bosses agreed it was the wrong time to release the film, but producer Jason Blum tells Deadline, “Enough time has passed and both Damon and I are proud of the movie. We feel comfortable for it to come out now.”
    “In the early marketing, people took away a different message. The movie is a satire and pokes fun at both sides, and the idea this time around in the marketing was to lean into that fact. The truth is no one has seen the movie – the people who judged the movie in any way, judged it without seeing it. I’m hoping that the people see the movie and decide for themselves.”

    Rebel Wilson and James Corden Slammed for Their 'Cats' Jokes at Oscars

    ABC

    The Visual Effect Society hits back at the ‘Cats’ actors and the Academy Awards over their ‘Cats’ sketch, saying ‘the best visual effects in the world will not compensate for a story told badly.’
    Feb 11, 2020
    AceShowbiz – The Visual Effect Society has slammed the Oscars following a skit involving Rebel Wilson and James Corden mocking “Cats”.
    Tom Hooper’s adaptation of the hit musical, starring the actors alongside other big names including Taylor Swift, Judi Dench, and Ian McKellen, was widely slammed by critics and viewers alike upon its release last year 2019 – with many criticising the effects used to make the stars look like felines.
    At the Oscars on Sunday, February 9, 2020, Rebel and James donned furry cat costumes as they made their way onto the stage to present the award for Best Visual Effects, and joked, “As cast members of the motion picture Cats, nobody more than us understands the importance of good visual effects.”

    The quip didn’t go down too well, however, with the Visual Effects Society, who insisted in a statement slamming The Academy of Motion Pictures Arts and Sciences, who run the Oscars, that “the best visual effects in the world will not compensate for a story told badly.”
    “In presenting the Academy Award for Outstanding Visual Effects, the producers chose to make visual effects the punchline, and suggested that bad VFX were to blame for the poor performance of the movie Cats,” the organisation said in a statement.
    “On a night that is all about honouring the work of talented artists, it is immensely disappointing that The Academy made visual effects the butt of a joke. It demeaned the global community of expert VFX practitioners doing outstanding, challenging and visually stunning work to achieve the filmmakers’ vision.”
    “Our artists, technicians and innovators deserve respect for their remarkable contributions to filmed entertainment, and should not be presented as the all-too-convenient scapegoat in service for a laugh. Moving forward, we hope that The Academy will properly honour the craft of visual effects – and all of the crafts, including cinematography and film editing – because we all deserve it.”
    The Academy has yet to respond.

    'LHH: Miami' Star Nikki Natural Gets Jumped After Calling Trina a 'B***h'

    VH1

    That is not the only fight that is featured in the ‘LHH’ franchise ‘Love and Hip Hop: New York’ star Kimbella can be seen picking a fight with Yandy Smith and accusing her of being fake.
    Feb 11, 2020
    AceShowbiz – The latest episode of “Love & Hip Hop: Miami” was undeniably fire. The episode, which aired on Monday, February 10, saw Trina and newcomer Nikki Natural going into fight after the latter called Trina a “b***h” during the altercation.
    The heated moment started after Trina gave Nikki an opportunity to audition for a boot camp/tour as per Nikki’s ex-boyfriend Trick Daddy’s request. Despite the opportunity, Nikki threw tantrums when Trina asked her to do a rap battle to secure a spot in her tour. She began cussing at everyone and that made Trina annoyed and kick Nikki off the venue.
    Not stopping there, Nikki was involved an ugly fight with fellow cast member Sukihana. Trina tried to calm Nikki down but eventually lost her cool once Nikki called her names. She went about to attack Trina while shouting, “I’m gonna whoop your a**!”
    However, she was held by her security team. While they were in a screaming match, the other ladies, who were sitting together earlier, all stood up, jumped Nikki and all hell broke loose.
    Nikki apparently didn’t stop trying to fight Trina. She tried to break out of the security team though her attempt went in vain as she fell down.

    “Nikki called Trina a b***h ?!? DRAG THAT H** ! #LHHMIA,” one fan commented on the clip of the chaotic moment. “Nikki Natural you’re a disrespectful lil lying can’t rap b***h. How dare you run up on Trina #LHHMIA,” one other added.
    “Bruh Trina got real serious when Nikki called her a b***h. Nikki was not ready in any form for what Trina was about to offer. The Queen Of The South aka Da Baddest B***h woulda really hurt that cop caller. Or did y’all not see Trina in Walmart that time? #LHHMIA,” one fan said.
    That was not the only fight that was featured in the “LHH” franchise that aired that night. The Monday episode of “Love & Hip Hop: New York” saw Kimbella picking a fight with Yandy Smith and accused her of being fake.
    In a confessional, Kim dubbed Yandy a “fake friend,” “a fake person” and a “fake businesswoman.” She appeared to not be able to control her anger as she threw her drink towards Yandy when they were all out with other cast members.

    Upon watching the episode, fans collectively slammed Kim for being jealous of Yandy. “Kimbella , girl BYE . you coming across like a bitter jealous b***h . you was holdin onto all that anger towards yandy for YEARS ?! That means you were never a real friend like you claim . #LHHNY,” one said.
    “Yandy has had ENOUGH of Kimbella!!! Please drag her lmaooooo Kim knows she only famous because of Juelz and the many, many artists she slept with. Yandy didn’t have to do any of that and she’s smart af. Girl, just admit that you’re jealous of Yandy and move on. #LHHNY,” someone else pointed out.
