It’s an old and simple thing: The company says “you get the fame and we get the money”. Horrible and unfair, literally Faustian, that’s how the industry works, and if artists don’t like it, they shouldn’t sign the contract.

You sign, and those are the rules. You can look for a better contract with small labels or do it…

First: congrats to the young man for acceptance and scholarships etc. Its most important to achieve and make use of the options that are given and not focus on the ones we wish we had. Having stated this, it’s never too late. I have had numerous conversations with nieces, nephews, friends of them and friends of my own…

Was going to say exactly this.

I saw one of those “Remember this when you go to vote” posts on Facebook complaining about how Democrats blocked the bill initially. I’m the furthest from being up to date on politics, but that complaint seemed weird to me. Republicans want to act like Democrats are lazy and want handouts, but when Democrats refuse…

These folks always need something to happen to them before they give a shit because empathy and a sense of community are the American ideals they choose to ignore.

You don’t find it the least bit ironic that they “RESPECT THE LAW ENFORCEMENT OFFICERS” but don’t respect the laws they are sworn to uphold?

Cinderella II and Cinderella III. They exist, somehow - and everything I said in that last comment is true. (I’m... reasonably sure the image you used is from one of the sequels, based on the color quality.)

Just get a sample in front of Mike Pence with a sign saying not to touch it.

For the record, he named Rappaport in our conversation.

Thank you for writing these interviews out again, rather than just using video.

Theoretically, it could be a double entendre thing since, to some, this show could have been a show biz ‘break’. I’ve seen the show, so I don’t think that’s what Shannon was going for.

This was exactly what I came down here to say. 

What’s the scoop on Chyler Leigh- I thought she left to spend more time with her family or something? 

Unfortunately, adoption is also sometimes incredibly expensive and can be prohibitively so for some families. Close friends of mine had IVF insurance coverage but nothing near support for what adoption would required in their state, which is why they went with IVF. I think that reality is why when we do see adoption…

Imagine getting yourself fired over a Taurus.

Agreed the NBA had something to sell to the players where the NFL is already close to maximum revenue so the players have no reason to go along with it. I also fully expect Daryl Moray to get fired after the season even if an argument can be made for it being based on the play of the Rockets I think he will also be…

No, you need a Minnesota Vikings grill and a Star Trek grill or I will fight you.
