Despite Progress, Hollywood’s Most Famous Trans Actors Are Still Struggling to Find Work - IndieWire Despite Progress, Hollywood’s Most Famous Trans Actors Are Still Struggling to Find Work - IndieWire Posted: 24 Oct 2019 10:30 AM PDT In 2018, Trace Lysette had become one of the most recognizable transgender actresses in Hollywood. That same year, she also lost her health insurance. After multiple seasons on Amazon's Emmy-winning "Transparent," a stint on Caitlyn Jenner's E! reality show "I Am Cait," and one as a guest judge on "RuPaul's Drag Race," Lysette's career was on fire. She recently appeared opposite Jennifer Lopez in the fall hit "Hustlers," in a role many viewers may not have realized was played by a trans woman. (She's the one telling her boyfriend she'll give him some pussy after her shift.) With more trans roles being written than ever before, it's reasonab...

Columnist says Katie Hill scandal exposes 'the left's #MeToo hypocrisy' - Washington Examiner

Image
A fter Rep. Katie Hill announced her resignation from Congress amid allegations of affairs with two staffers, a New York Post columnist argued the incident exposes "the left's #MeToo hypocrisy." In a Sunday night column, Miranda Devine called the scandal surrounding Hill, who is accused of engaging in a three-way relationship with a female campaign staffer and her husband and later having an affair with her male legislative director, a "classic 'MeToo' situation." "But it [her resignation] shouldn't have taken so long — more than a week during which she was aggressively defended by hypocritical defenders on the left," she wrote. "By claiming that Hill was the victim of a political smear, she and her supporters showed no concern for the vulnerable 22-year-old who was preyed upon by her boss and who now, two years later, is bereft, abandoned and a self-described 'mess.' "The same people who demonize males for far ...

Adrien Brody Channels His Inner Hitman With Unusual Red Carpet Accessory - D'Marge

Picture a hitman's uniform. You're probably picturing a well-dressed man in an all-black suit with very little skin showing possibly due to leather gloves over the hands. Well, it wasn't a costume party, but Adrien Brody did decide to dress the part at his latest red carpet appearance. Adrien Brody was in Paris this week at the Montblanc store on Avenue des Champs-Élysées for the launch party of the manufacturers latest RED collection. RED is a not-for-profit organisation that specialises in fighting HIV/AIDS through prevention services, treatment, counselling and care facilities. Through its collaboration with RED Montblanc donates a percentage of every sale in the collection to the charity. It is a great cause – but not great enough for Adrien's red carpet accessory to go unnoticed. Leather driving gloves are for two types of people: drivers like Jason Statham in Transporter, and hitmen. So naturally, they fit right into the red carpet. It's certainly a choice...

From Flooded To Fabulous: Becca Tobin Shares Her Newly Renovated Home - Forbes

Becca, Zach and Orly at home. Dustin Walker for Hutch While many people dream of renovating their homes, Becca Tobin and her husband Zach Martin didn't exactly have a choice. Best known for her role on Glee , the actress is currently on the  television version of her popular podcast LadyGang , along with Keltie Knight (who also knows what it's like to  renovate a home ) and Jac Vanek. Over two years ago, they purchased a 1200 square foot two bedroom/two bathroom house in the Laurel Canyon neighborhood of Los Angeles. "We were drawn to the space because the house had so much charm! Los Angeles is filled with a lot new construction that feels really sterile, so this 1930's gem felt super special. Laurel Canyon is also a really special neighborhood with a very cool bohemian vibe because of its rich music history and we loved that!" she explained. Along with their dog Orly, the couple was happily living in their beautiful home until the old plum...

'Seal Team' Fans Think That David Boreanaz Is Leaving for Good - Distractify

Image
So how does this tie to David Boreanaz? Well, seeing as John Glenn was such an integral part of the show at one point and a big network name, and Season 2 ratings weren't strong, that maybe the future of the program was in jeopardy and David would look for a way out and maybe try to get another show going. That, combined with the position that David's character, Jason Hayes was left in at the end of the Season 2, had people wondering if he'd return to the program. After the debut of Season 3, it was clear that David Boreanaz is still the lead of the show, but the future of his character does still seem a bit uncertain. Seal Team is brutally real — beloved characters are killed off in the blink of an eye, and the program does receive praise for being true to life. In fact, one of the most rewarding aspects of being on the show according to the actor, is getting that positive feedback from people who know better than anyone.

Why Adrien Brody was never the same after The Pianist - Looper

Image
In order to step into Szpilman's shoes, Brody dove head first into the world of method acting. He knew that he could never fully understand what the real-life Szpilman had experienced, but he had to try his best to get inside his head. The first step? Actually learning how to play the piano so that he could perform the Chopin pieces included in the film. He spent several hours each day practicing because he felt that it was important for him to play those pieces on his own.  But his method acting strategies didn't stop there. By the end of the film, Szpilman has been surviving on very little food for months, and he's starving. It's devastating stuff, and Brody would need to be noticeably thinner to accurately portray Szpilman after his time in the Warsaw Ghetto. Brody ended up losing 30 pounds for these scenes, getting down to 130 pounds.  Although it was difficult, Brody insisted that this experience was necessary to play Szpilman. "There is an emptiness tha...

David Boreanaz Shares His Favorite Angel Memories for 20th Anniversary - TV Guide

[embedded content] Buffy the Vampire Slayer gets its fair share of credit for changing the face of feminist television, but its spin-off, Angel, deserves its own accolades for its thoughtful takes on morality, atonement, and soldiering on in the face of impossible odds. After three seasons of romancing Buffy Summers (Sarah Michelle Gellar), and occasionally trying to kill her, Angel (David Boreanaz) decided to hit the road and head to Los Angeles in search of redemption. The resulting series was a wild ride with a slightly more cynical tone than the flagship. It also featured a pretty incredible ensemble that sucked fans in right from the get-go. Looking back on his time on Angel , which celebrated its 20th anniversary on Oct. 5, Boreanaz told TV Guide on the set of his CBS drama SEAL Team that the spin-off's ability to explore more mature themes was one of the things he loved most about launching his own series. "That show, I thought, was really the adult version of B...

Lenk Still Turning Trash Into Treasure - Radio Ink

Image
Actor Tommy Lenk has taken his talents to podcasting with  Trashcast , now on the Ladygang Network on PodcastOne. The  Buffy the Vampire  and  Rock of Ages  star will interview pop-culture personalities and celebrities about their lives and personal stories. Embracing Lenk's theme of turning one person's trash into another's treasure, guests will bring in an item that has become trash to them, and share in the joy of a future guest receiving the gift. Lenk said, "Celebs bring me their prized possessions and items that no longer 'spark joy,' and I try to figure out what's trash and what's treasure. I'm like a totally unqualified Marie Kondo, with none of the discipline and a very shoddy work ethic. Okay, so we're the complete opposite — but I do think you'll enjoy the magical art of NOT tidying up with me. And remember, one man's trash is another man's podcast…I mean TRASHcast!"

Denver Film Festival 2019 Opening Night Preview - Westword

Image
Opening night at the Denver Film Festival is getting a makeover. Even though tonight, October 31, is officially designated as the kickoff for the fest's 42nd edition, it follows yesterday's tribute to longtime DFF artistic director Brit Withey, who died in a car crash earlier this year. And while this evening's festivities are centered around a traditional red-carpet presentation, with director Rian Johnson's Knives Out  getting the spotlight treatment at the Ellie Caulkins Opera House circa 8 p.m., ten more screenings at other venues are on the docket, including The Lodge , the first must-see pick suggested by Matt Campbell, who was named interim artistic director after Withey's passing. "I specifically chose The Lodge  since it's Halloween," Campbell says. "What's Halloween without a great horror film? And The Lodge  is definitely the greatest horror film we have in the festival." As for Knives Out , festival director Britta Eri...
