JUSTIN BIEBER CRITICIZED FOR USING MARTIN LUTHER KING JR. SPEECHES IN ‘JUSTICE – (03/22/2021)
Justin Bieber is being criticized for using excerpts of Martin Luther King Jr.’s speeches on his latest album.
Released Friday (March 19th), Justice starts off with the famous quote, “Injustice anywhere is a threat everywhere,” from King’s April 1963 “Letter from Birmingham Jail.” It also includes the track, “MLK Interlude,” a nearly two-minute snippet of the Civil Rights leader’s 1967 sermon, “But If Not”.
Twitter users and professional critics alike questioned why the singer chose to include these clips on an album comprised of love songs. Variety reviewer Chris Willman wrote in his review, “Now, if you’re wondering why anyone thought it was a good idea to conflate civil-right martyrdom with the thought of succumbing to a hot woman, keep wondering: It, like the other MLK bit, or the socially conscious-sounding rationale for the album title, for that matter, doesn’t make a lick of sense.”
Additionally, Twitter user @cxtilyn wrote, “justin bieber using mlk speeches about justice… to sing about his white wife?”
However, King’s daughter Bernice King appeared to co-sign Bieber’s new project in a tweet Thursday (March 18th) before the album’s release.
She wrote, “Thank you, @justinbieber, for your support, in honor of #Justice, of @TheKingCenter’s work and of our #BeLove campaign.”

JUSTIN BIEBER SERVED CEASE AND DESIST NOTICE – (03/19/2021)
French dance duo Justice sent a cease-and-desist notice to Justin Bieber over the singer’s upcoming album Justice.
Rolling Stone reports that the duo’s label, Ed Banger Records, claimed there were similarities between the title font on Bieber’s album cover and Justice’s own trademarked “cross” logo.
Justice’s co-manager Tyler Goldberg of Jet Management told the magazine, “The morning Bieber announced his album, it was pretty tough to miss. Aside from seeing it all over the internet ourselves, we heard from hundreds of people throughout the day — industry people, Justice fans — and the Justice guys received a ton of messages, not only compelled to point out the similarities between the Justice Justin Bieber album, but confused. ‘Is this a Justice collaboration?’”
In a March 10th letter from Justice’s counsel to Bieber’s lawyer and management, Justice called for Bieber to cease and desist his use of “Justice” in tandem with the “cross,” a “Mark” which the duo trademarked in both France (in 2008) and the European Union (in 2014). The duo’s legal team also includes an April 29th, 2020 email in which Bieber’s team reached out to Justice’s management in order to connect with the designer who created Justice’s logo.
While neither a member of Bieber’s legal team nor his rep responded to Rolling Stone‘s request for comment, Justice’s management claim Bieber’s legal team did “reject” the cease-and-desist letter, arguing that the singer’s logo and merchandise did not infringe on the duo’s trademark.
Both Justice and the video for Bieber’s latest single, “Peaches” dropped at midnight (March 19th).

Cardi B and Megan Thee Stallion‘s risque “W.A.P.” performance at the Grammys this past weekend has ruffled a lot of feathers. According to TMZ, the FCC received 80 complaints over the performance.
One person from Idaho wrote, that the duo were “absolutely disgusting,” while another person from Colorado wrote that the ladies were dancing like they were “in a strip club.”
Another person wrote, “This display made the Janet Jackson Super Bowl Halftime faux pas seem like children’s television! The FCC has failed at their job!”
Cardi has continued to defend the song. She recently wrote via social media, “I don’t make music for kids I make music for adults. Parents are responsible on what their children listen too or see . . . I’m a very sexual person but not around my child just like every other parent should be.”
BOX OFFICE PLUMMETED 80% IN 2020 – (03/19/2021)
The Motion Picture Association released its analysis of box office receipts for 2020, and the news was even worse than many feared. For the first time, online subscribers crossed 1 billion to hit 1.1 billion, a 26% spike year over year. In the U.S., there were 306.8 million subscriptions, an increase of 32%. All together, mobile and home entertainment brought in $68.8 billion last year, an increase of 23% over 2019.
The box office, meanwhile, dropped to $2.2 billion in the U.S., a drop of 80%. Globally, the B.O. brought in $12 billion, a decrease of 72%. For the first time, China surpassed North America, with $3 billion worth of receipts.
“The past year was challenging for the global economy, and for virtually every aspect of our daily lives: the staggering loss of life, the toll on our frontline workers, the devastating and widespread loss of jobs and businesses, and the almost complete shutdown of many industries,” MPA chairman-CEO Charles Rivkin said in his letter introducing the 60 page-plus report.
“Our workforce was not immune: Jobs were lost, productions were either curtailed or shut down, and movie theaters shuttered around the globe,” Rivkin continued. “But, during an otherwise punishing year for theatrical exhibition and our industry at large, home and curated entertainment boomed. The good news wasn’t just confined to homes, laptops, and other personal devices. As recent stories have shown, audiences never lost their appetite to enjoy the theatrical experience, and drive-in theaters enjoyed their highest returns in decades.”
Bad Boys for Life, starring Will Smith and Martin Lawrence and released in January of 2020, topped the box office for the year, with $206.5 million in receipts. Sonic the Hedgehog came in second with $146.07 million.

ANGELINA JOLIE CLAIMS ‘PROOF’ OF BRAD PITT’S DOMESTIC VIOLENCE – (03/18/2021)
In new court docs, Angelina Jolie says she has proof of Brad Pitt’s domestic violence. The papers, filed under seal on March 12th, say she is prepared to offer “proof and authority” in support of alleged domestic violence against Pitt during their upcoming divorce trial.
She has also filed another doc under seal regarding testimony of their six kids in the case. Jolie and Pitt share six children together — Maddox, 19, Pax, 17, Zahara, 16, Shiloh, 14, twins Knox and Vivienne, 12.
“This is just another case of Angelina changing the narrative when it suits her,” a source familiar with the case tells ET. “Aside from the one accusation that she made in 2016 that was investigated and dismissed, there have never been any other records, police reports or even accusations until it suited her case.”
“No one else knows what she might say now, but that background is important,” adds the source.
Pitt was cleared of child abuse allegations by the Federal Bureau of Investigation and Department of Child and Family Services back in 2016.
Jolie, 45, and Pitt, 57, have been engaged in a fierce battle over custody after she filed for divorce for him in September of 2016.
