I don’t think it had anything to do with whether the usher knew who she was? Rowland just didn’t like being physically pushed and didn’t like being touched by strangers, which is a fair boundary to have.  Of course I can’t find a video of what actually happened, just a bunch of slo-mo cut with stills.

Probably. And everyone would side with her, because “OMG YAS KWEEN BEY!!!”

Me, procrastinating and not going to bed when I should: “Kelly Rowland got into a fight with Usher at Cannes?!”

I think the fear on the part of the board is that Musk’s cult of personality is the real reason they actually sell cars. And that’s not a totally unreasonable fear, right? Like, no normie is going to order a cybertruck, that’s entirely a toy for rich techbro fans. So the concern would be that if they drive Musk out,…

Imagine if Tesla survives the recall & destruction of the Cyber Trash Mobile and post Musk, drops the Full Self Crashing scam, focuses on updating their cars so you don’t need to use a touch screen in the middle of the car to set the climate controls. Furthermore by making a deal with Recarro for better seats, and…

The problem is that there are way too many true believers among the retail investors and probably among early investors as well. It seems like in literally any other situation there would be institutional investors that would have pushed the board in a direction that would tend to reign in an executive like Musk...

That’s the part I really don’t understand in all of this; and it truly reveals that the Tesla board isn’t acting in the best interest of shareholders.  

You forgot the part about first threatening to sabotage the business and mismanaging it to the brink of collapse; that’s an important part in all of this. Then you can say “only I can fix it!” (where have I heard that before?)

Yeah but you actually work and do stuff that benefits other people. You provide actual value.

Well, I’m going to tell my clients I’m not going to work anymore until I get a significant raise and see how that goes. *fingers crossed*

Wait, so if Tesla doesn’t give Elon a huge pile of money they ALSO don’t have to waste their time and resources on a robotics program that won’t benefit their primary line of business?

How can a company senior officer make open threats against the company and still hold their job??

I wonder if the actors contracts were up for renegotiation?  It seems, when a show gets cancelled without a good reason, it’s usually because the network doesn’t want to have to deal with paying the actors new higher salaries when their contracts are up.

If you like modern sitcoms, yes. It has very little to do with BBT. It is a single camera sitcom with decent amounts of character development and is quite wholesome. It doesn’t overuse its setting of the early 1990s, and it is more about an older guy (Sheldon from BBT) narrating a story about how he didn’t fully…

Thank you for this! I suspected that’s what it was, and kept meaning to go back and check but never did.

Useless fact 2! In countries that don’t use the US’s date formatting, it was shown as 101097.

Useless fact! Hanks authorisation code is 101097 , the date that Fallout 1 was released!.

It’s always hard to know what the REAL story is these days, but their responses mirror those of Marc Summer who also said the producers brought him in to discuss the old Nickelodeon days. He gave a few responses (that they actually included in the documentary) and once he figured out what the project was actually…

Yep. It basically was the standard ID true crime porn.

This does indeed sound like the grubbiest of gotcha journalism by the makers.
