Gabrielle Union’s ‘America’s Got Talent’ Firing Sparks SAG-AFTRA Probe Over What Went Down At NBC - Deadline

Stumbling from bad to worse, NBC now have a potential labor landmine under their feet with Gabrielle Union’s forced march exit from America’s Got Talent.

Just hours after the Comcast-owned network finally put out a statement that seemed to recognize the gravity of the situation and the allegations of racial and other discriminatory practices at work on the Simon Cowell created competition series, SAG-AFTRA has turned a new spotlight on the matter.

“We take issues of workplace health and safety very seriously,” the Gabrielle Carteris-led union said in a statement Sunday (read the full statement below) on the L.A. Finest’s star and AGT, which announced on November 22 Union was leaving after just one season. “While we have taken steps to investigate this matter, we have nothing to report now,” SAG-AFTRA’s statement added of the Union probe.

We understand the investigation is in an early stage, but a well informed source says that the union recognizes what a high profile and probably high wire act this is. Representing over 160,000 actors and other performers globally, SAG-AFTRA intends to be extremely thorough and timely simultaneously because of the claims being made and the manner in which they were handled by the show, its producers and subsequently the network.

Tonight, NBC said that they had “nothing further” to say “beyond the statement we sent this morning” when contacted by Deadline on SAG-AFTRA’s confirmation of a probe into what really went down at AGT this past season.As support for the fired Union became deeper and louder the past week, NBC and producers Fremantle and Cowell’s Syco said earlier today that they were “working with Ms. Union through her representatives to hear more about her concerns, following which we will take whatever next steps may be appropriate.”

Now, in a town already experiencing labor tensions, that work may be proving a bit more urgent.

HERE IS SAG-AFTRA’S FULL STATEMENT ON THEIR INVESTIGATION FOR GABRIELLE UNION

We take issues of workplace health and safety very seriously. We immediately reached out to Ms. Union’s representatives when these reports came to light. It is our practice to work closely with members who reach out to us and their representatives in instances like this, as that usually affords the best protection and best resolution for the affected member.

For certain matters, our investigation and enforcement needs to happen independently and we are prepared to handle this issue accordingly, as warranted.

Our enforcement action is usually handled confidentially to protect the member involved, and we typically do not publicize these matters unless the member requests that we do so.

While we have taken steps to investigate this matter, we have nothing to report now.

Shelley Morrison, ‘Will & Grace’ Actress, Dies at 83 - The New York Times

Shelley Morrison, whose 64-year acting career included playing the memorable maid Rosario on NBC’s “Will & Grace” from 1999 to 2006, died in Los Angeles on Sunday. She was 83.

Ms. Morrison died of heart failure, according to a statement from her husband, Walter Dominguez.

“Shelley’s greatest pride as an actress was in playing the indomitable Rosario in a comedy series that furthered the cause of social equity and fairness for L.G.B.T.Q. people,” Mr. Dominguez said in a statement. “She also took pride in portraying a strong, loving yet feisty Latina character.”

He added: “She believed that the best way to change hearts and minds was through comedy.”

The daughter of Spanish immigrants, Ms. Morrison was born and raised in the Bronx, where a street sign carries her name at 159th Street and Grand Concourse Boulevard as part of the Bronx Walk of Fame. After moving to Los Angeles, she attended Los Angeles City College and began her stage career, becoming one of the city’s first female stage producers.

She would later move into film and television, including playing Sister Sixto on “The Flying Nun” in the late 1960s. She would appear in dozens of other television shows, including “Murder She Wrote,” “L.A. Law,” “Home Improvement” and “Columbo.”

But she was best known for her work on “Will & Grace,” where she played a maid to Karen, played by Megan Mullally. As one of the few characters willing to stand up to her socialite boss, Rosario became a fan favorite.

“She reminds me a lot of my own mother, who loved animals and children, but she would not suffer fools,” Ms. Morrison said of her character in a biography released by her publicist.

She and her husband met in 1973 and together adopted three sons and three daughters through a Native American ceremony. She lived in the same apartment building in Los Angeles for 69 years, promising her parents, who had also moved there, she would always take care of it.

Watch TOM ARAYA Bid Emotional Goodbye To Fans At Last-Ever SLAYER Concert - BLABBERMOUTH.NET

Thousands of fans of SLAYER fans witnessed the band's last-ever concert at The Forum in Inglewood, California on Saturday night (November 30) during the second of two last tour dates dubbed "The Final Campaign".

At the conclusion of SLAYER's set, bassist/vocalist Tom Araya addressed the crowd, thanking the group's fans for supporting him and his bandmates for nearly four decades.

"Thank you. Thank you very much," he said. "I want to thank you for sharing your time with us. Time is precious. So I thank you for sharing that time with us. Thank you. I'm gonna miss you guys. But the most important thing I want to thank you for being a part of my life. Thank you. Good night. You guys be safe."

The setlist for the show was as follows:

01. South Of Heaven
02. Repentless
03. Postmortem
04. World Painted Blood
05. Hate Worldwide
06. War Ensemble
07. Stain Of Mind
08. Disciple
09. When The Stillness Comes
10. Born Of Fire
11. Payback
12. Seasons In The Abyss
13. Jesus Saves
14. Chemical Warfare
15. Hell Awaits
16. Dead Skin Mask
17. Show No Mercy
18. Raining Blood
19. Mandatory Suicide
20. Angel Of Death

SLAYER's final world tour began on May 10, 2018 with the band's intention to play as many places as possible, to make it easy for the fans to see one last SLAYER show and say goodbye. By the time the 18-month trek wrapped at the Forum, the band had completed seven tour legs plus a series of one-off major summer festivals, performing more than 140 shows in 30 countries and 40 U.S. states.

SLAYER's final world tour has been a wild ride. Three bus drivers, four truck drivers, and a crew of 32 have traveled all over the world to set the stage for this farewell. At most shows, SLAYER's pyro expert set off 160 pounds of propane and 10 liters of 99% isopropyl alcohol, prompting the Phoenix New Times reviewer to comment on the "eyebrow-singeing pyrotechnics that could be felt even 10 rows behind the pit." In Toronto, one diehard fan was ejected from the concert before SLAYER took the stage, so jumped into Lake Ontario (that surrounds the Budweiser Arena) and swam back to the venue. The Tampa Bay Times' Jay Cridlin wrote, "Beginning with the throttling opener 'Repentless', SLAYER tore through their set like a flaming cigarette boat across the river Styx, charring up a vicious circle pit by the stage," and Detroit's Gary Graff noted in his Oakland Press review the "10,000 headbangers who skipped the 'Game Of Thrones' finale to pay homage to the pioneering quartet." "The sheer physicality of their show was something to behold and was yet another indication that while the band may be calling it a career, they are going out on top, playing at their absolute best," wrote Andy Lindquist for the SF Sonic.

Araya talked about his possible retirement in a 2016 interview with Loudwire. He said: "At 35 years, it's time to collect my pension. [Laughs] This is a career move." He continued: "I'm grateful that we've been around for 35 years; that's a really long time. So, yeah, to me, it is. Because when we started off, everything was great, because you're young and invincible. And then there came a time where I became a family man, and I had a tough time flying back and forth. And now, at this stage, at the level we're at now, I can do that; I can fly home when I want to, on days off, and spend some time with my family, which is something I wasn't able to do when [my kids] were growing up. Now they're both older and mature. So now I take advantage of that." Araya added: "Yeah, it just gets harder and harder to come back out on the road. 35 years is a long time."

Tom also revealed another reason for his diminished enjoyment of the touring life. He said: "There's things that have gone on in my life that have made me change how I play as a bass player. I had neck surgery, so I can't headbang anymore. And that was a big part of what I enjoyed doing what I do — singing and headbanging. I liked knowing that I was one of the fucking badass headbangers. That played a big part. Now I just groove with the music, which is cool, because I'm grooving with the music and the feel of the songs, so that's changed a little for me."

SLAYER has been touring in support of its latest album, "Repentless", which was released in September 2015 via Nuclear Blast. That effort marked the band's first release since the death of SLAYER's co-founding guitarist Jeff Hanneman.

Hanneman contracted necrotizing fasciitis, also known as flesh-eating disease, in January 2011 from a spider bite in his backyard. The infection ravaged the flesh and tissues of Hanneman's arm, leading to numerous surgeries, skin grafts and intense periods of rehab that forced him into semi-retirement and left him near death at several points.

Hanneman eventually died in May 2013 from alcohol-related cirrhosis of the liver. He is credited for writing many of SLAYER's classic songs, including "Angel Of Death" and "South Of Heaven".

Original SLAYER drummer Dave Lombardo was effectively fired from the band after sitting out the group's Australian tour in February/March 2013 due to a contract dispute with the other members of SLAYER. He has since been replaced by Paul Bostaph, who was previously SLAYER's drummer from 1992 until 2001 and recorded four albums with the band.

Comedian asks fans to sign $1 million NDA before comedy show - AOL

Whatever you do, never tweet at a Pete Davidson comedy show. The “Saturday Night Live” cast member has recently been dolling out non-disclosure agreements before each of his recent comedy shows.

Most recently fans attending Davidson’s standup at the Sydney Goldstein Theater were asked to sign a lengthy contract that forbid them from tweeting or instagramming any opinions about the performance.

One attendee Stacy Young, originally discovered by Consequence of Sound, posted the alleged NDA on her facebook which stated: “the individual shall not give any interviews, offer any opinions or critiques, or otherwise participate by any means or in any form whatsoever (including by not limited to blogs, Twitter, Facebook, YouTube, Instagram, or any other social networking or other websites whether no existing or hereafter created.”

The fine for breaking said NDA was a whopping one million bucks, “In the event of breach of this agreement, individual shall pay company, upon demand, as liquidated damages, the sum of one million dollars, plus any out of pocket expense.”

Mama June Pulls Out Cash At ATM, No Sign of Family - TMZ

Exclusive

TMZ.com

Mama June didn't seem to be anywhere near reconciling and reuniting with her family for Thanksgiving -- but a silver lining might be that she is somewhat nearby ... and has money.

The troubled reality star -- who's been on a downward spiral since linking up with her BF, Geno -- was spotted out this week in McDonough, Georgia ... pulling out cash at an ATM just days before the holiday. She didn't look all too great though ... head low and disheveled.

It's interesting ... we're told June rolled up to a convenience store there in the city in a black SUV, in which she was riding passenger with Geno, we're told, riding in the back.

An eyewitness says June got out of the car, popped into the store to pull out cash ... and was back in her vehicle within minutes. Two things to note ... Mama June had somebody driving her and Geno around, but maybe more important ... they seem to have funds on hand.

WE tv

Either way, there's no sign of June's family getting back in the picture yet -- at least not permanently. As we've told you ... she's barely in touch with them these days, including with her own daughter, Honey Boo Boo ... this despite the fam's best efforts to reconnect.

We've been hearing that June's been bouncing around from hotel to hotel with Geno since unloading her Hampton, GA home earlier this year. So, if there's any good news to glean from this sighting, it's that she's still in the area and hasn't gone completely off the radar.

While we'd like to imagine a scenario where June went home for Thanksgiving, but something tells us it just didn't happen.

Chrissy Teigen claps back at a troll who tried to shame her for employing 'chefs and nannies' - Daily Mail

Chrissy Teigen claps back at a troll who tried to shame her for employing 'chefs and nannies'

She often puts her family life in the public eye on social media.

But Chrissy Teigen didn't hold back after a troll tried to shame her for having hired domestic workers.

The 34-year-old model shared a photo on Friday featuring her chef, nanny and assistant, along with her two children, Luna, three, and Miles, one.

Standing up for herself: Chrissy Teigen, 34, didn't hold back after a troll tried to shame her for having hired domestic workers on Friday; shown November 9

The photo featured the group gathered together under a canopy with picturesque hills in the distance. 

'Grateful for people that make our dysfunctional house functional ❤️,' she gushed in the caption.

But one commenter was offended by her hiring domestic staff.

'AKA "thankful for my household staff of chefs and nannies,"' they replied.

Chrissy seemed unfazed as she responded: 'Literally just said that but you sure got me.'

The Sports Illustrated Swimsuit Issue star has been open before about how important having professional help has been to raising her family.

In September, she was asked on Twitter how she worked on her comedy reality show Bring The Funny while still raising two young children.

'@chrissyteigen Can you please talk about working while pregnant, shortly post-pregnancy and away from your babies?' asked writer and radio producer Rebecca Caroll in September. 

Rude response: 'Grateful for people that make our dysfunctional house functional ❤️,' she gushed in the caption, before a troll replied, 'AKA "thankful for my household staff of chefs and nannies"'; shown November 9 with John Legend

Holding her own: Chrissy seemed unfazed as she responded: 'Literally just said that but you sure got me.' Earlier this week she shared a photo of her friends in pajamas decked out with her husband John Legend's Sexiest Man Alive cover
