You didn’t need to be a physic to know that Bob Iger’s comments a couple of weeks back about the SAG-AFTRA strike was going to make waves in the entertainment industry, but it looks like the Disney CEO has officially ended up on the wrong side of a Breaking Bad legend’s opinion. Speaking of wrong sides (you’ll know what we mean in a second), the digital release of The Little Mermaid has sparked unanimous critique over one key component of Ariel’s modern appearance. Halle Bailey is wonderful, but if Disney had just…

Doja Cat’s fandom is in shambles, and she couldn’t care less. Throughout her career, the rapper has maintained a bizarre relationship with her fans online — one that embraced their support but harshly rejected anything beyond that, including their inquiries into her life outside of music. She’ll go into the booth and record the songs, but her loyalties seemingly end there. When a fan on Threads (on which Doja Cat has since deactivated her account) asked the musician to declare her love for her fanbase, she wrote back:…

Listen up, guys: The three members of Haim play their own instruments and any rumors to the contrary are false. In a new interview with NME, the rock band discussed the constant trolling they receive online, saying they are tired of shutting down online comments that accuse them of pretending while onstage. In June, NME posted a video clip of the trio performing “My Song 5” at the Governors Ball on Instagram. Immediately, someone commented, “Is it just me or is that bassist just acting?” At the time, Haim…

Elon Musk says the Ford F150 Lightning is too expensive, as Ford slashes the price to help demand catch up to increased production. As Tesla Cybertruck’s price is up in the air, some believe this could hint at the electric pickup truck coming in cheaper than the Lightning. Today, Ford announced price drops across its entire F150 Lightning lineup. The electric pickup truck saw its price drop between $6,000 and $10,000, depending on the model, and it now starts at $50,000 – much closer to…

Disney CEO Bob Iger angered members of the Writers Guild of America, the Screen Actors Guild, and, seemingly, half of Hollywood when he chided striking workers’ demands during an interview from the so-called “summer camp for billionaires.”  Particularly pissed were a number of writers and staffers who’ve worked on Disney programs who say they’re disheartened and confused why the centi-millionaire would think of their asks as “unrealistic” and “disruptive.” “It’s the studios that have created this work stoppage.…

Marc Maron, one of the most irreverent and interesting comedians currently working today, has had some pretty serious beef with the comicbook community lately. Yikes. Whether it’s via his podcast WTF, an interview, or the world at large — Marc Maron has never considered himself a Marvel fan. Looking for proof? Check out his interview on Conan from a few years ago. He doesn’t pull punches. Plus this clip amuses me, and Wednesdays are all about keeping ourselves entertained. Right?…

Do you ever feel like dropping a comment under a song you’ve streamed on YouTube Music? This might sound weird to some people, but YouTube believes that there are those out there who wish to do this. For this reason, the app might be getting a comment button to the Now Playing interface. Funny enough, some users are already getting this comment button on their mobile app. This is part of a new redesign that the app is adopting in a bid to make its usage more fun for streamers. With this redesign comes a ton of changes,…

Minister of state (MoS) for information technology Rajeev Chandrasekhar termed as "nonsense, bakwas" comments about artificial intelligence taking away jobs in India. The minister of state for electronics, information and technology said Artificial Intelligence (AI) today is task-focused and essentially makes tasks more efficient, mimicking human behaviour. "I am sorry to be sounding cynical. In 1999, the whole of 1999, I heard how Y2K is going to wipe out the world. Then I hear AI will finish our jobs and there are…
