We actually think his popularity is down because he is an arrogant a–hole. Kanye’s Popularity Decreases Because Of Kim Kardashian Sure, him attacking the paparazzi and saying Kimmy Cakes is more influential than Michelle Obama had nothing to do with it. According to The National Enquirer: KANYE WEST’s popularity on the downslide after getting horizontal with KIM K – industry analysis. In less than two years, the 19-time Grammy-award winner’s likability has nosedived by a whopping 66 percent, according to the influential Q scores, a closely watched measure of recognition and popularity that marketers use to evaluate celebrities’ appeal. Before West began dating the 33-year-old Kardashian star in April 2012, his score was high — a 17 among women aged 18-49.What’s more, the 36-year-old father-of-one was rated even more lofty — a score of 19 — among men 18-34 dating as far back as February 2011. But shockingly, West’s popularity has plummeted to a mere 3 among women 18-49, the latest results from September reveal.He’s hemorrhaged popularity among his core fan base of men too, but not as significantly as women: West’s most recent Q Score among the 18-34 male demographic was a lowly 13. West’s fading stardom in the influential poll — also used by companies and advertisers to help make major endorsement decisions — began several months after his relationship with the E! star went public and has continued amid his clashes with the paparazzi and other celebs, RadarOnline reported. “Kanye has had a significant drop among women,” Henry Schafer, Executive Vice President of the Q Scores Company, said. “It’s surprising.” Not really. Kanye has been a source of derision since he was lambasted by South Park years ago in their classic “Gay Fish” ep but now even his most ardent admirers seem to have had enough of his ties to the Kardashians. Kanye can control Kim, but he can’t control people not giving a fawk about him. WENN
Lifetime has pulled the plug on its longest-running series. The network announced today that Army Wives will not return with new episodes, canceling the drama after seven very successful seasons. A 120-minute retrospective will air some time in 2014. Said Rob Sharenow, Executive Vice President and General Manager of Lifetime, via statement: “There is no denying how special Army Wives has been to both Lifetime and the television landscape. By taking on a very relevant and timely issue, it has brilliantly captured the challenges our military families endure and the bravery they and their loved ones display while serving our country. “It has been an honor to be the home of Army Wives. We also want to thank Army Wives’ passionate legion of fans and everyone involved with the series: ABC Studios, Mark Gordon and Jeff Melvoin, Tanya Biank, every single cast member, as well as the crew and community of Charleston, South Carolina. Without their dedication, effort and loyalty, Army Wives’ seven wonderful seasons would not have been possible; and for that we are very grateful.” The series received many accolades, during its run, including a pair of Gracie Awards from the Alliance for Women in Media, a Sentinel for Health Award from the USC Annenberg School for Communication and Journalism’s Norman Lear Center, as well as an NAACP Image Award, NAMIC Award and Prism Award nominations.
The headline for moviegoers here is that the new feature Metallica Through the Never is headed to theaters. What is more significant is how it will get there. Longtime distribution figure Bob Berney is resurrecting a label he once headed, Picturehouse, to serve as CEO, while a veteran in the filmmaking scene in her own right, Jeanne Berney, will serve as president of the label, which will be based in New York. Metallica Through the Never stars members of the band as well as Dane DeHaan ( The Amazing Spider-Man 2 ) who plays a young band crew member. He is sent out on an urgent mission while the band is playing a live set in front of a sold-out crown and unexpectedly finds his world turned completely upside down. The re-fashioned Picturehouse will open the film August 9th. “Metallica’s way of doing things is to jump into unexplored creative endeavors with no safety net whatsoever,” said Metallica drummer Lars Ulrich. “Putting this movie together for the last couple of years has been a pretty wild ride, and we’ve definitely done our share of flying without a net! Bringing Bob and Jeanne and the new Picturehouse team in at this point provides us with a much needed level of security for the distribution of the film. Their spirit of independence and desire to work outside the box is something we can relate to in every way, and this makes them both a welcome addition and a natural fit in the Metallica family.” The new Picturehouse plans to acquire, market and theatrically release independent films from the U.S. and around the world, beginning with two to three films this year and increasing its output to four to five features in 2014 and six or seven in subsequent years it said Tuesday. Bob Berney helped launch the original Picturehouse in April 2005 as a joint venture between Time Warner’s HBO and New Line Cinema divisions. During that tenure, the company released Guilermo del Toro’s Pan’s Labyrinth which won three Oscars; Olivier Dahan’s La Vie en Rose (winner of two Academy Awards, including best actress for Marion Cotillard); Sergei Bodrov’s Mongol ; Patricia Rozema’s Kit Kittredge: An American Girl ; Robert Altman’s A Prairie Home Companion ; and Seth Gordon’s documentary The King of Kong: A Fistful of Quarters . Time Warner later folded Picturehouse and New Line into the general Warner Bros. operations and the brand continued to live in the home entertainment and television releases of its films. Most recently Berney co-founded and served as president of theatrical distribution of FilmDistrict, overseeing the roll outs of Insidious, Soul Surfer, Don’t Be Afraid Of The Dark and Drive . Prior to Picturehouse he worked at IFC Films, where he acquired and oversaw the release of films including the $240-million surprise hit My Big Fat Greek Wedding and Y Tu Mamá También . Later he served as president and partner of Newmarket Films, releasing features including Mel Gibson’s $370 million-grossing The Passion of the Christ as well as Monster , which earned Charlize Theron the Best Actress Academy Award; and Whale Rider , a little-known Toronto International Film Festival find that also received a Best Actress nomination. Newmarket sold its distribution operation to Time Warner as part of the formation of Picturehouse. Entertainment marketing veteran Jeanne Berney most recently served as Executive Vice President of Marketing at FilmDistrict. Before that, she was Executive Vice President of Marketing and Administration for Apparition. Jeanne Berney also served as Director of Public Relations and Marketing at the Film Society of Lincoln Center, where she was responsible for the campaigns for all of the Society’s year-round programs.
The pig has found a new home at Kindred Spirits Sanctuary in Florida. “PETA knew that sponsoring a rescued pig was the perfect birthday present for a young woman who spends so much time encouraging others to help animals,” PETA Executive Vice President Tracy Reiman explained. “From promoting animal adoption to speaking up for cows who suffer on dairy farms, Miley never stops letting her millions of fans know what they can do to make the world a kinder place,” she added. Miley Cyrus has recei
Charlie Sheen has made it the tiniest bit harder to hate him now. The actor announced today that he will donate 1% of his profits from Anger Management – which is off to a solid start on FX – to the USO, guaranteeing that military organization at least $1 million and leaving the final donation figure uncapped. It’s a record donation from one individual. “The USO would like to thank Charlie Sheen for his very generous $1 million donation to our Operation Enduring Care Campaign and his interest in helping us lift the spirits of those who have endured so much to protect the freedoms we enjoy daily,” said General John I. Pray, Jr., Executive Vice President and Joint Chief of Staff, U.S. Air Force.
Daniele’s somewhat surprising nominations on Sunday left her options open, if nothing else. Last night, we saw how that move worked to her advantage. Simply put, Dani’s got game. She painted herself into a corner early this season, but has won to critical HoH weeks and looks to be in a great position. Of course, we all know that can change in an instant in this house. How did last night play out? THG recaps Wednesday’s Big Brother installment below … “Why Shelly,” said Rachel, “I simply have no idea what on earth you mean.” Minus 27 for blatantly lying and coming unglued so terribly and so fast. Jordan played the role of strict schoolteacher here. “Kalia, you stay here,” she said. “Somebody go get Porsche.” Not over-dramatic whatsoever. Plus 4 . We really don’t know entirely what this argument was about, but Shelly lost most if not all of her credibility and grittiness during it, so Minus 5 . However, don’t count the Louisianan out just yet. She won Dani back over, at least in part, mere hours after being put up on the block. Plus 6 . Brenchel is the odd pair out in the veto battle. Burn! Plus 4 . Jordan is, as Jeff put it, an Angel on Earth. She donated a “Family Phone Call” certificate to Shelly, and while that call came with 24 hours of solitary, that also means 24 hours away from Rachel, so it’s a net positive. Plus 9 . Kalia won a Caribbean Vacation, leading Jeff to joke: “Vacation from what? Taking a nap every day?” Good one, but Minus 2 , since Jeff naps 24/7. Draining three straight? Daniele has mad cornhole skills! Plus 5 . Adam decides he wants to take part in this season and urges Dani and Jeff to let him win. They oblige, and the big fella actually comes through. Plus 14 . Minus 4 , though, because he kept talking about how proud he was of his STELLAR effort in the veto battle. Dude, imagine if Dani had tried to win. Isn’t Jordan adorable wearing that humilitard? Or anything? Plus 8 . In the have not room, Shelly heard the voices of her husband and daughter. “Mama!” said little Josie. “I Love you!” Did it get dusty in here??! Plus 10 . “I feel very accomplished,” Dani proclaimed to Kalia. Careful. Minus 5 . Brendon and Rachel seem dazed, resigned to their fate almost. Perhaps because he only returned due to Lawon’s stupidity? The fire is gone. Minus 7 . Plus 2 for Dani labeling him a zombie that won’t die. It’s so true. Daniele makes the right call back-dooring Brendon, but still needs another vote to evict him. Will Adam, Jeff and or Jordan provide it? It’s not over yet. EPISODE TOTAL: +12. SEASON TOTAL: +16. Who’s going home tonight on Big Brother?
