Amid uncertainty around the fate of the TikTok ban, Meta is one of the major social media platforms making overtures to creators.

In January, Meta launched a “Breakthrough Bonus” program, which would give creators up to $5,000 for posting videos on Facebook and Instagram Reels, and also announced plans to offer content deals to select TikTok creators to “help grow their communities on Instagram and Facebook.” In turn, creators are approaching the ban with a mix of uncertainty and plans to spread content out across several platforms.

“It’s a large part of my livelihood, so it’s something that is concerning. But, I feel like no one really knows. It’s just a lot of questioning, and it can be a little nerve wracking, to say the least,” says social media creator Daniel Mac, who has 14 million TikTok followers.

In January, the Supreme Court upheld the law that essentially banned TikTok in the United States.

Apple TV+’s The Studio aims to give audiences a peek behind the Hollywood curtain. Funnily enough, it was reported years ago that Seth Rogen had pitched an idea at HBO that pre-dated Entourage, but would be very similar in navigating the glamour of showbiz and would also intend to show some inside baseball on the film industry in Hollywood. Rogen gets to do it in a different fashion with his new TV series and, just like Entourage, there are cameos aplenty by a large number of people playing a version of themselves.

The Hollywood Reporter has just revealed the extensive list of who will be appearing in The Studio. If you’d rather be surprised by who shows up, you can probably consider these spoilers.

The list of Hollywood faces that will make appearances on the show include Aaron Sorkin, Adam Scott, Anthony Mackie, Antony Starr, Arthur Keng, Bill Watterson,...

Seth Rogen is "putting a band together" for his new Apple TV+ comedy The Studio.

A just-released reel shows the co-creator, director, writer, executive producer, and star rattling off just a few of the A-list names fans can expect to see this season. "I'm stressed out just thinking about it," he jokes.

Just wait until he has to figure out the show's Emmy submissions. Check out the clip below.

Here is the full list of guest stars confirmed to appear on this season of The Studio: Aaron Sorkin, Adam Scott, Anthony Mackie, Antony Starr, Arthur Keng, Bill Watterson, Bryan Cranston, Charli D’Amelio, Charlize Theron, Chris Gann, Courtney Pauroso, Dan Black, Dave Franco, David Krumholtz, Derek Wilson, Devon Bostick, Dewayne Perkins, Erin Moriarty, Greta Lee, Ice Cube, Jean Smart, Jen Statsky, Jessica Clements, Jessica St. Clair, Johnny Knoxville, Josh Hutcherson, Keyla Monterroso Mejia, Kit Hoover, Larry Brown, Lil Rel Howery,...

The Studio has revealed its full guest cast for the Hollywood sendup series co-created by Seth Rogen.

Rogen — also the lead actor, writer, director and executive producer on the Apple series about moviemaking — has taken to his director’s chair to announce the many guest stars in the comedy, which had promised A-list cameos in every episode. In The Studio, Rogen stars as Matt Remick, a newly appointed (fictional) head of the embattled Continental Studios who finds himself forever fighting and debating with his fellow creatives and demanding actors over whether art and commerce can coexist in Hollywood.

“I kind of viewed it like I was putting a band together,” Rogen explains in the new teaser, which briefly introduces a handful of characters played by some of the starry names below.

It had been previously announced that The Studio, along with Rogen, stars Kathryn Hahn, Catherine O’Hara, Ike Barinholtz and Chase Sui Wonders,...

Lame kicked off his partnership with Unicef (which stands for United Nations Children’s Fund) with a trip to the country where he was born.

With a TikTok ban going in effect on January 19, millions of Americans will lose access to one of the most transformative social platforms of our lifetime. During its short 6.5 year life, TikTok forever changed culture, business, politics, and the entire internet landscape. It gave tens of millions of people a voice and the ability to effect change for the first time. No other social platform has come close to its reach and impact in such a short time.

When the short-form video app Musical.ly rebranded and relaunched as TikTok in the summer of 2018 after being acquired by the Chinese tech conglomerate Bytedance, it wasn’t immediately clear what role the app would play in the social landscape. Musical.ly, while among the most popular social apps for young people at the time, primarily attracted teenagers making lip syncing videos to share with friends. Instagram and YouTube were dominant and...

It’s not exactly clear what will happen to TikTok at 12 a.m. on Jan. 19.

Either way, for the most nervous among TikTok’s 170 million U.S. users, the search to find a new home for their content is on. Lucky for them, almost every social media platform thinks they have an answer. But...

Long-time Dancing With The Stars fans are very familiar with Mark Ballas. After a prolonged absence, he briefly returned as a pro dancer in Season 31, when he won the Mirrorball Trophy with Charli D’Amelio.

Mark reappeared in Season 33 as a guest judge, winning favor from many viewers. However, a few noticed something interesting about the professional dancer. Mark Ballas has an incredibly interesting way of speaking. It isn’t quite British, but isn’t quite American either.

Read on to see what he and his mother Shirley Ballas had to say.

Mark Ballas’ Mother Explains His Upbringing & Accent

At least one of Mark Ballas’ followers insisted his accent was fake. He enlisted the help of his mother, Strictly Come Dancing judge Shirley Ballas, to explain.

The 36-year-old creator, who has been a mainstay in the realm of “YouTube drama” for more than a decade, just fulfilled a pair of lifelong dreams: She had a cameo on the December 7 episode of Saturday Night Live and followed up her appearance with the reveal of a benefit show, which will run for a single night at Broadway‘s St. James Theatre.

After her trip to late-night TV, Paytas is headed to the Great White Way.

The century-old Macy’s Thanksgiving Day Parade will return this Thursday to ring in the holiday season.

Even though the Macy’s Thanksgiving Day Parade kicked off for the first time in 1924, this year’s parade is not the 100th anniversary of the annual tradition. It was suspended for two years, not for the Covid-19 pandemic, but for World War II in the 1940s.

This year’s parade will be filled with new floats, balloons and musical performances, including cameos from Jimmy Fallon, Charli D’amelio and Idina Menzel.

The 98th Macy’s Parade lineup is set to be the largest yet with more than 5,000 volunteers, 17 featured character balloons, 22 floats, 15 heritage and novelty balloons, more than 700 clowns, 11 marching bands, 10 performance groups and some of music’s biggest stars.

“Dancing with the Stars” premiered in 2005 with a focus on teaching celebrities some fancy footwork. But along the way the professional dancers who teach and partner with those celebrity amateurs became stars in their own right. Many of them returned to the show year after year, and over a dozen have won the coveted Mirror Ball Trophy over the course of the series. Scroll down to see every single “DWTS” pro champion, listed by their number of victories.

It’s fitting that the “DWTS” pros have become fan-favorites because they’re not just dancers. They’re also trainers, choreographers and storytellers, and their chemistry with the stars fuels the show’s best routines, so they’re truly the lifeblood of the competition, especially when they bring talent and charisma out of unexpected places, from child stars to race car drivers to one male model, Nyle Dimarco, who won the Mirror...

Gypsy, starring Audra McDonald, got off to a big start on Broadway, bringing in $770,349 in its first three preview performances last week.

“There’s no #DWTS tomorrow, but we’ll see you Tuesday, Nov. 12 for our 500th episode! Can’t wait to be back in the ballroom. ” the official DWTS Instagram account shared last night.

Dancing With the Stars Season 33 has been one of the best seasons in years, so we’re excited to see where the hit competition series goes next.

After Jenn Tran and Sasha Farber were eliminated from the show last week, there was a sense that anyone could go next, and we have bad news if you’re expecting a new episode this evening.

The series is on a short-term hiatus.

The good news is that we already know when to expect the show to return, with Dancing With the Stars Season 33, Episode 8, set to air on Tuesday, November 12, 2024.
