“It is my fervent hope that we quickly find solutions to the issues that have kept us apart these past few months,” Bob Iger said Wednesday on Disney’s Q3 earnings call about the Writers Guild and SAG-AFTRA strike. “And I am personally committed to working to achieve this result.”
The words and tone of the CEO’s words represent a drastic shift from what he said dismissively about the WGA strike and the then-looming actors strike just a month ago.
Of course, in the midst of the company’s 100th anniversary, today earnings results and call come on the same day that the scribes’ 2023 strike surpasses the 100 days that the 2007-2008 strike lasted and heads into almost uncharted territory. At 153 days, the 1988 writers’ strike remains the longest labor action in the WGA’s history, for the time being.

While ‘90s or musical-themed pickets may have helped maintain WGA morale during the first 73 days of their strike, the writers got a much bigger lift on Friday as actors joined them on lines across Los Angeles.
The first official day of the historic SAG-AFTRA strike brings with it the promise of A-listers from the 160,000-member group — or, at the very least, union leader and ascendant folk hero Fran Drescher — as two of Hollywood’s most significant labor groups picket alongside one another for the first time since 1960. Demonstrations were again held at 10 sites around L.A., on a day with temperatures set to climb to 95 degrees in some parts, though Netflix and Warner Bros. Discovery were among the bigger targets for crowds. (In New York, where members of WGA East have been picketing for nearly three months, actors joined writers at robust lines in front of Netflix HQ and the Paramount offices in Times Square.

“I apologize for my post on social media yesterday as well as my response. It was inappropriate and highly insensitive," Louise Linton, the wife of Treasury Secretary and Hollywood producer Steve Mnuchin, said this afternoon in a statement.

Louise Linton, the actress wife of U.S. Treasury Secretary Steven Mnuchin who has come under fire this week for her “Let them eat cake”-like online tirade over her designer-tagged Instagram photo, is no stranger to Marie Antoinette moments. One of the Scottish-born actress’ very first Hollywood roles was in a 2007 episode of “CSI: NY” in which she played a French tutor who meets an untimely end at a charity costume party where she dresses as — you guessed it — Marie Antoinette. Her character, Simone DeLille, is led to a decidedly not-fake guillotine by her teenage student — played by...

We're celebrating Marie Antoinette for a few more days this week. Here's abstew - Editor
The legendary figure of Marie Antoinette has been the subject of gossip and infamy for over 200 years now. Although most scholars agree that all we may think we know about the excessive queen is mostly a misunderstanding. Even the most well-known phrase attributed to her, "Let them eat cake!", has been debunked as never actually been spoken by her. Even in her own time, there were pamphlets spread around France accusing her of infidelities with both men and women. At her trial, she was accused of staging orgies at the Palace of Versailles and even committing incest with her own son. Playing off of these rumors, French director Benoît Jacquot's 2012 film about Marie Antoinette, Farewell, My Queen, based on the novel by Chantal Thomas, invents a lesbian relationship between the Queen and a duchess at court.

Let them eat cake, or not? That's the question that sparked a heated debate between Candace Cameron Bure and Raven-Symone on yesterday’s episode of "The View." The two former child stars discussed a recent incident that involved an Oregon wedding cake company refusing to provide services to a lesbian couple. But was this a decision based on the constitutional right of freedom of association, or was this a prime example of discrimination based on sexual orientation? The former "That’s So Raven" has been an activist for the Lgbt community since 2014, when she told Oprah she was in relationship with a woman. Meet Raven-Symone's Girlfriend -- She's a "Top Model" Alum!

"The real Cake isn't Having what you want, It's Doing what you want," she tweets Thursday (Nov. 15) along with the pic taken by Terry Richardson.
The singer's fans got another nearly nude Gaga ahead of her Buenos Aires concert Friday night when she shared a link to a 15-second video of her dancing around in her underwear and frolicking with two other women in a bathtub.
She writes Wednesday along with the video link, "un petit fours Or *very good for making gifs*."
Ah, Lady Gaga dancing around nearly naked -- the Gif that keeps on giving.

Why do people love to hate Gwyneth Paltrow? Is it because she is so tall and pretty and blonde and she married a British dude with good teeth (but a bland band) and we are all super jealous? No! Well sort of. But really it’s because she says stupid, ignorant things, and seems to be unaware of the fact that there are people in the world who aren't multi-millionaires with a penchant/obsession for ultra elitist living. Once again, super snob Gwyneth Paltrow has proved she is totally out of touch with the 99% of the population when she recently told InStyle magazine that she doesn’t allow her absurdly named wee ones, Apple and Moses, to watch TV in English. Apparently, only Romance languages French or Spanish will do for Gwyneth's offspring -- because they are better than your kids.

First of all I’d like to thank you for waiting patiently for this post this week. If you didn’t read my last post I warned you I’d be on vacation this week. I had a great time. Thanks for asking. Now onto this week’s episode.
Hmmmmmmm. Uhhhhhhhhh. Weeeeeellllll. I’m not sure how to take this episode. You’ll remember in last week’s episode House went all loco in his pain for the loss of his true love. Hookers. Vicodin. Cannonballs. And it appears that he doesn’t quiiiiiiiite have all of that pain out of his system in this episode as his juvenile pranks around the office seem to escalate, rather unbelievably at times, in his attempt to make Cuddy feel guilty or use Cuddy’s guilt or… See, I don’t know.

Queen Elizabeth and Prince Philip’s rather byzantine wedding cake, photographed at Westminster Abbey in 1947. Photograph from Associated Newspapers/Daily Mail/Rex USA.The royal wedding of Prince William and the future Princess Catherine is just 45 days away. From the daily barrage of tabloid folly, Vf.com’s Royal Watcher in London plucks the best for your wedding crib notes. • Let them eat cake! It has been announced that chefs from the Welsh National Culinary team will be baking the royal wedding cake. I’m hoping it will be a twist on the ever popular Barbie cake, with a Kate Middleton doll in the place of the buxom blonde.

Finding sexy underthings while you’re pregnant isn’t easy. That’s why we were excited when we discovered UK-based brand Cake Lingerie.
Created by Tracey Montford, the line is full of beautiful bras and panties (think lace and frilly prints) for moms-to-be.
The company has just released its fall collections — A Slice of Heaven and Let Them Eat Cake — and we’re loving the Plum Pudding Underwire Nursing bra ($65) and brief ($28) left.
Better yet, Bare Necessities is offering an exclusive discount to Moms & Babies readers.
Until Sept. 30, just enter code Cake20 at checkout for 20% off of all Cake Lingerie purchases.

Danny Devito has limoncello, Marilyn Manson has Mansinthe, Dan Aykroyd has wine and Crystal Head Vodka -- and now Justin Timberlake joins the celebrity alcohol brand smorgasbord with his 901 Silver Tequila. But Timberlake wasn't content to just put his name on the bottle -- he's also making his directorial debut with 901's sexy ad campaign, which has hit YouTube, and will be followed by print ads in September and TV ads in spring of 2011.
Timberlake -- who chose the name as a nod to his hometown of Memphis' area code, and because "901 is that time of night when your evening is ending, but your night is just beginning." Oh, ok. -- debuted the three "uncommonly smooth" ads on the Pursuitist YouTube Channel (where apparently luxury is "redefined"). The videos were shot at the Los Angeles boutique hotel, The Standard, as well as various other L.A. hot spots.

A new baby means new curves — and new underthings.
That’s why we’re loving Cake Lingerie‘s sophisticated maternity and nursing bras, panties and loungewear.
Not only is each piece gorgeous, but they celebrate — and accentuate — your new body.
It’s no wonder mom-of-four Heidi Klum is a fan!
Featuring decorative bows, padded straps, ruffles and luxe fabrics like silk satin, the line is split into two oh-so sexy collections — Slice of Heaven and Let Them Eat Cake — that put Victoria’s Secret to shame.
But what really sets the brand apart is its handy bra fitting guide.
