#BritneySpears
o She is ready to tell her story!
o The singer plans to release her highly anticipated memoir called The Woman in Me.
o The books publisher says, “Britney’s compelling testimony in open court shook the world, changed laws, and showed her inspiring strength and bravery. I have no doubt her memoir will have a similar impact — and will be the publishing event of the year. We couldn’t be more proud to help her share her story at last.”
o The book will be released on October 24th.
#MargotRobbie
o The actress stars in the new Barbie movie that hits theaters next week and now she’s facing some backlash for one of her on-set demands.
o Ryan Gosling, who plays Ken in the movies, said, “Margot had this pink day once a week, where everyone had to wear something pink. If you didn’t, you were fined. She would go around collecting the fines, and she would donate it to a charity.”
o Social media is upset saying that her “fines” probably meant very little to the stars of the movie, but what about the lower-paid members of the crew?
o One of the comments said, “Imagine being a grip, this is maybe one of two jobs you’ll get this year, and you either have to spend money to buy a pink shirt if you don’t have one, or get fined. I sometimes marvel at how blind Hollywood celebs are at seeing what they look like to the outside world.”
o But some are defending her saying, “Everyone upset about this yelling “what about the crew” has no idea what life is like as crew. We’ll often get requests on what to wear - strict show blacks, no certain brands, no logos, certain gear, no sports teams, etc. We do it, do the job, move on.”
#BurgerKing
o A new menu item at the franchise in Thailand is raising some eyes and hurting the stomachs of the lactose intolerant.
o Burger King Thailand just introduced a new menu item called the “Real Cheeseburger.”
o It is a burger with no meat but it’s filled with 20 slices of American cheese.
o You can get the burgerless burger for $11 but no word if it will make its way to the U.S.
o Burger King said in a social media post, “This is no joke. This is for real.”
