Lol they wrote Mia out after multiples movies where she plays little to no role in the plot, and then killed off Giselle. Those are terrible examples.

She is also well-known to be difficult on set, an alcoholic with a temper and a history of DUI’s that make her a risk to hire (and the cause of some job losses in her past) and Fast and the Furious offered her a path back to audiences by bringing her back into the franchise when she’d been written out. Sooo I think…

I suspect she’s also angling for more $$, which is perfectly fine. If she can get paid more she should.

Not a surprise at all. Festivals seem to be becoming more and more homogenized, and the costs of admission, let alone concessions (and in some cases, lodging), keep rising.

Only Burning Man, which is weird enough to value it.

Makes sense. The success of the big festivals is inspiring copycats and other attempts at their own festivals, and most of these will probably underperform and/or fail because most businesses do fail.

You might be right! Like if you have no morals or self doubt you never dwell on past decisions or worry you might have said or done the wrong thing. You just Coast through life with no effort (with he requisite riches you never share because you cheat everyone).

IMO, there are way too many festivals that cost way too much $$$$$$$.

It probably didn’t help either that their headliner was Chance the Rapper who signed on for 14 festivals this year including Bonnaroo, Lollapalooza, and Governor’s Ball.

You may be onto something. These people (not your grandmother!) are so convinced of their special-ness that they have no stress, no self-doubt, a sense of self-importance that causes them to not suffer the things that affect us Normals in an unhealthy way. I remember saying about hubby #1, “He’s so damn crazy, he’ll…

Poor white trash with money is rich white trash. The guy eats well done steak with ketchup, for chrissakes. It’s a miracle he didn’t grab her by the pussy. He’s famous, you know. You can do that when you’re famous. This is the sort of incident which should dog a politician for months, but with Kim Jong Trump it will…

So GWB had a very similar background to Trump with being super rich from day 1 and having everyone kiss his ass non stop.

Because he keeps fucking getting rewarded for it? Honestly though? THIS IS ALL OF THEM. Ask me about the time Chuck Grassley ogled my boobs. I was 20 and working. Or the time that a middle-aged youth pastor gave me a back rub when I was 16. Or the boss who made me feel dirty when I told him I was pregnant with my 2nd…

Because he’s (supposedly) rich and had enough people kissing his ass and telling him how special he is his entire life.

Surrounded all his life by yes-men doesn’t help.

How is it possible for a born rich, 71 year old cis het American white man to have ZERO social graces???

An idiot who thinks the best female player is a worse player than SEVEN HUNDRED of the best male players. SEVEN HUNDRED. So, a sexist idiot.

He has always been bitchy and critical of the Williams sisters. He had the nerve to claim they were unfriendly and disrespectful, and cold. Yes, this man who was known for throwing tantrums and yelling at people when things didn’t go his way talked shit about those girls when I believe they were still teenagers, or…

No, Brad, no. Just no.
