FANS DRAG AUTHORITIES FOR CALLING OFF NAYA RIVERA SEARCH AS CELEBS ASK FOR PRAYERS – (07/10/2020)
While the search for the missing Glee star Naya Rivera has resumed, fans dragged authorities for suspending their search overnight. Rivera vanished while boating with her 4-year-old son on a California lake. The Ventura County Sheriff’s Department said that divers are searching for the 33-year-old in Lake Piru, about 56 miles north of downtown L.A.
“The lake will be closed to the public while search operations continue,” the sheriff’s office wrote Thursday on Twitter.
Fans were furious that the search was called off and spoke out on Twitter, alleging that if Rivera (who is Puerto Rican, Black and German) were white, they wouldn’t have done that.
Wrote one: “it’s actually infuriating. what if it was lea? or any other white actor? they wouldn’t be stopping their search. it doesn’t (and will never) matter if you’re gorgeous, rich, famous. naya is a latinx woman, with tan skin. FLASHLIGHTS, PEOPLE. ITS 2020.”
Rivera is presumed dead after she took out a boat around 1 p.m. Wednesday with her son Josey. He was discovered three hours later alone and sleeping, and Rivera could not be located. Josey is reportedly in good condition.
Meanwhile, Rivera’s co-stars and other Hollywood pals, including Heather Morris, Harry Shum Jr. and Demi Lovato, are praying for her safe return. “Please pray for Naya Rivera to be found safe and sound,” Lovato wrote. Her former fiancé Big Sean is also showing his support on social media.

HARRY STYLES’ ‘DREAM WITH ME’ SLEEP STORY IS OUT NOW ON THE CALM APP – (07/10/2020)
Harry Styles teamed up with the Calm app for a sleep and meditation story titled Dream With Me, out now.
“Sleep and meditation are a huge part of my routine, whether I’m at home, in the studio, or out on the road,” Harry said in a statement. “Rest and recovery is as important as doing the work. Finding a balance has been endlessly beneficial to both my physical and mental health. It’s changed my life. I’m so happy to be collaborating with Calm at a time when the world needs all the healing it can get. Treat people with kindness.”
The 30-minute sleep story is narrated by Styles. As late as Wednesday afternoon, however, the Calm app appeared to be having some technical difficulties, and many were unable to access Styles’ recording. When trying to refresh the Sleep Stories feature, an error message popped up explaining that the app was “temporarily unavailable.”
“We are actively working on a fix,” a spokeswoman for Calm said. “Keep an eye on our social channels for updates. All of our users will be able to #DreamWithHarry soon. We appreciate your patience!”
Calm cofounder and co-CEO Michael Acton Smith said in a statement that Styles’ “mellifluous voice is the perfect tonic to calm a racing mind.”

LADY A VERSUS LADY A CONTINUES – (07/10/2020)
It was reported yesterday that the trio of Lady Antebellum was suing Anita White over a dispute of the name Lady A. The band filed the suit only after Anita White had asked for a $10 million for the settlement.
The blues artist who also goes by the name Lady A made this statement: “I was quiet for two weeks because I was trying to believe that it was going to be okay and that they would realize that it would be easier to just change their name, or pay me for my name. She continued: “But here we go again with another white person trying to take something from a black person, even though they say they’re trying to help.”
The trio Lady A officially changed their name from Lady Antebellum to the shorter nickname, dropping the slavery-tied “Antebellum” on June 11 amid national conversations about racism and inequality in the United States. Lady A is a nickname fans have used for the band — and one they have used themselves — for years.
In the band’s law suit, they do not ask for money from Anita White; rather, they want a declaration from the court that they are using their name lawfully, and that they are not infringing on White’s rights by continuing to use it.

TWITTER RESPONDS AS J.K. ROWLING JOINS 150 PUBLIC FIGURES SLAMMING ‘CANCEL CULTURE’ – (07/09/2020)
J.K. Rowling has joined 150 authors and academics in an open-letter that denounces “cancel culture,” a reference to the online flogging of people who say or do something that social media users find unacceptable.
The letter welcomed the “needed reckoning” on racial and social justice but argued that it has “intensified a new set of moral attitudes and political commitments that tend to weaken our norms of open debate.”
It continued: “The free exchange of information and ideas, the lifeblood of a liberal society, is daily becoming more constricted. While we have come to expect this on the radical right, censoriousness is also spreading more widely in our culture: an intolerance of opposing views, a vogue for public shaming and ostracism, and the tendency to dissolve complex policy issues in a blinding moral certainty.”
The Harry Potter scribe has come under fire in recent weeks for what many consider to be transphobic comments. Their letter was published by Harper’s Magazine, and the response online was predictably outraged.
Twitter, for the most part, just wasn’t having it. Wrote one: “ ‘Cancel culture’ is an essential part of free speech. If celebrities say things we find repugnant, it is our right to cease consuming their content. What she means is, ‘I should be able to say whatever awful shit comes into my head without losing sales.’”
Another tweeted: “There are limits to everything but ‘cancel culture’ is a part of free speech. If people & institutions want to ‘cancel’ (ie. not work with or give money to) David Starkey because of his comments on ‘damn blacks’ that’s their right in a free society.”

DEMI LOVATO REVEALS WHY SHE LEFT DISNEY CHANNEL – (07/09/2020)
Devi Lovato has opened up about her childhood as a Disney Channel star and the battles with eating disorders that she says were enabled by her management team and upheld by the television industry.
In a new interview with Bustle, Lovato revealed the real reason why she decided not to return to star in the Disney series Sonny With a Chance after a 2010 altercation with a backup dancer spurred her to leave the show and undergo her first stint in rehab.
“I kind of looked around and had a moment where I was like, ‘Wow. This is so terrifyingly normalized,” Lovato said of the television industry, detailing that she used to be given “watermelon with fat-free whipped cream” in place of a birthday cake each year.
“When I went to treatment in 2010, I came out of the experience with the choice of talking about my struggles or my journey with the possibility of helping people, or keeping my mouth shut and going back to Disney Channel,” she continued. “And I was like that doesn’t feel authentic to me. So I chose to tell my story.”
Lovato’s eating disorder persisted, fueling her opioid addiction and eventual overdose in 2018, which resulted in the her returning to rehab. This time, she has emerged in a much healthier place, ready to reinvent herself and dictate her own future, she explained.
“I want a career that has nothing to do with my body. I want it to be about my music and my lyrics and my message. And I want a long-lasting career that I don’t have to change myself for,” Lovato said. “Music brought me so much joy when I was younger, and I lost that joy throughout the hustle and bustle of the music industry. I got miserable. And I don’t ever want it to be like that again.”

TOM HANKS ‘HAS NO RESPECT’ FOR PEOPLE NOT WEARING MASKS – (07/08/2020)
Tom Hanks appeared on The Today Show Tuesday in his first live interview since he and wife Rita Wilson were diagnosed with COVID-19 in March. He appeared frustrated at the resistance to “simple” guidelines like wearing masks.
Hanks said: [“The idea of doing one’s part should be so simple. Wear a mask, social distance, wash your hands. That alone means you are contributing to the betterment of your house, your work, your town, society as a whole and it’s such a small thing and I don’t it’s a mystery to me how somehow that has been wiped out of what should be ingrained in the behavior of us all.”]
He added: “Let’s not confuse the fact, it’s killing people. You can argue what the numbers are … it’s killing people.”
Hanks said his World War II movie Greyhound, which drops Friday on Apple+, speaks to the moment we’re in.
“There was a sensibility (during that time” that permeated all of society which was: do your part, we’re all in this together,” Hanks said. “What that meant — doing your part — was there was a tiny bit of stuff that you could do in order to aid the ongoing status of an effort that had no sign of its conclusion.”

The Jonas Brothers have pushed back the release of their upcoming memoir once again to ensure their final draft is “perfect.”
The band had originally planned to drop the book, Blood: A Memoir, last November following their hugely successful reunion and chart comeback, but they pushed the project back to March, and then again to October.
Now Nick, Joe, and Kevin Jonas have revealed they are still reworking the autobiography, so they have pulled the project from Macmillan Publishers’ release schedule until further notice.

According to the book’s official website, Blood “details the incredible true story of the Jonas Brothers, from the band’s creation, phenomenal rise to superstardom, break up at the height of their fame, and now reunification.”

Chrissy Teigen has had it with the commentary about her appearance on social media. She shared her skincare routine with fans, and one commenter wrote: “Ok…this isn’t her or some app that changed her face.

After seeing the comment, Teigen replied, “What would you prefer?”
But the troll didn’t back down. She wrote: “Your bone structure is prominent and recognizable…this shot, looks like a completely different person. Did 2-3 double takes. How did you do it?”
They then added: “Apologies for the lack of tact fullness…should have thought ahead,” the social media user wrote in a another comment. “But, why did I have to go back and forth 3-4 x to make sure it was you? Is it an app? It’s not about skincare, but bone structure is completely different…you’re unrecognizable.”
Teigen replied again, writing: “Why are you carrying on with this?? Why do you think I owe you anything especially after what you’ve said? You know you don’t actually know me in real life, right? Thank God.”
