Bloomberg’s Lucas Shaw wrote a comprehensive piece on the chaos behind Kevin Hart’s production company, which has pretty much laid off its TV and podcast staff.
It is specific to Kevin, who recently signed a branding deal with Authentic Brands Group (David Beckham, Marilyn Monroe and Elvis Presley are some of their other big names), but it’s also about the significant downturn in Hollywood, the realities of toying with AI, and the risk of investing in the marketing power of celebrities. A really interesting read.

Bella and Gigi Hadid often post this photo of their hot mom, Yolanda. When she was on Real Housewives of Beverly Hills, she advised a very hungry Gigi to “have a couple of almonds and chew them really well.” Almond Mom cannon.
