Jacob Latimore — This Milwaukee Native Is A Rising Star In Hollywood

The luscious Jacob Latimore is a breakout star that has been written up in Variety, Indiewire, and The Wrap. This Milwaukee native is a rising star in Hollywood who has earned a great deal of praise for his role as Bo in Sleight (2016). He plays Fred in Detroit (2017), Raffi in Collateral Beauty (2016), Jeff in The Maze Runner (2014) and Ramon in Ride Along (2014) among others. He plays Emmett in The Chi (2018) in which he shows off his beefy shirtless body when he gets up out of bed with a lady in the pilot episode. We love admiring his beefy torso and muscular arms as he gets up in the broad daylight. In episode three, Jacob crawls out of the window and shows off his shirtless torso and seat meat. In season three episode seven Jacob serves us more of his glutes while he has sex in the...

Barbie A Virtual Social Media Influencer — She Isn’t Just A Movie Star

Barbie isn’t just a movie star now — she’s also a virtual social media influencer. The explosive public response to the upcoming Barbie movie starring Margot Robbie and Ryan Gosling demonstrates the sheer power of nostalgic marketing for contemporary consumers. The Barbie movie made headlines last summer over its hefty US$100 million budget. Part of this budget went into its decadent set, which reportedly contributed to a global shortage of pink paint, as well as a massive marketing push that has seen partnerships with Airbnb, Xbox, Forever 21 and a multitude of other brands in numerous sectors. Branded characters and mascots like Barbie are tied to powerful childhood memories for many. Yet in the age of the metaverse these characters aren’t remaining dolls or television characters. T...

New Rock Follies Review Musical Brings 1970s Feminist TV Sensation To The Stage

Rock Follies review: powerful new musical brings 1970s feminist TV sensation to the stage. Rock Follies was a groundbreaking television series about an all-female rock band that originally aired for two seasons in 1976 and 1977. It wove fantastical, trippy and campy rock-musical numbers together with the often less glamorous realities of show business. The television show also led to two soundtrack albums, Rock Follies and Rock Follies of ’77, that charted in the UK. Now, nearly 50 years after it first aired, the show has been reimagined as a stage musical with a new book by Chloë Moss that showcases the TV show’s original music from Howard Schuman and Roxy Music’s Andy Mackay. The Chichester Festival Theatre staging is a successful update for a contemporary live audience. It pays musica...

‘Barbie’ A Movie About The Messy Contradictions Of Motherhood

‘Barbie’ is, at its core, a movie about the messy contradictions of motherhood. Editor’s note: This article contains plot spoilers for “Barbie.” The wildly popular “Barbie” movie has been touted for its celebration – and critique – of femininity. As a mother and a media scholar, I couldn’t help but see “Barbie” through an even narrower lens: as a film that, at its core, is about mothers and daughters. The film’s plot centers on a life-size doll, known as “Stereotypical Barbie,” played by Margot Robbie, who begins to malfunction: Her feet go flat, and she can’t stop thinking about death. So she leaves her perfect plastic life to embark on a quest to restore the boundary between the real world and Barbieland. Along the way, she learns that the real world is nothing like her girl-power won...

Barbie Is The Classic Material Girl — For Better Or Worse

Barbie is — and has always been — a material girl. That’s one message from scholars as the first live-action “Barbie” film opens Friday amid a fresh wave of merch, product collabs and advertising that highlights her characteristic consumerism. That consumption also isn’t all Barbie represents, they say, pointing to controversies over her problematic proportions, her potential to empower as a single woman without children and her evolution to reflect American culture’s changing tastes. Barbie’s Corvette convertible, tricked-out Dreamhouse and revolving door of pink outfits in the film say as much about the titular character as any dialogue in a movie that features three recent Oscar nominees — director Greta Gerwig and stars Margot Robbie (Barbie) and Ryan Gosling (Ken). One tween in the...

A Brief History Of Barbie’s Boyfriend, From All-American Boy To Movie Star — ‘I’m Just Ken’

‘I’m just Ken’ – a brief history of Barbie’s boyfriend, from all-American boy to movie star. As first boyfriends go, you could do worse than Ken Carson. Introduced in 1961 by Mattel, the Ken doll was the epitome of the all-American boy next door. Clean cut, athletic and with a sharp haircut, he was the perfect counterpart to his more famous girlfriend, Barbie. Ken’s first item of clothing was a pair of red swimming trunks, indicating his sportiness and reflecting the modern American lifestyle of leisure and penchant for outdoor recreation. Created by Barbie’s inventor Ruth Handler, Ken was a boyfriend designed by women for girls. Just as Barbie was named after Handler’s daughter, so Ken was named after her son. And so the safe, boyfriend-friend dynamic of Barbie and Ken’s relationship ...

The Barbie Movie A Bold Step To Reinvent And Fix Past Wrongs Or A Clever Ploy To Tap A New Market?

Is the Barbie movie a bold step to reinvent and fix past wrongs or a clever ploy to tap a new market? After a months-long marketing blitz, the much-hyped Barbie movie is released this week. From a Malibu Barbie dreamhouse listed on AirBnB, an AI tool that transforms selfies into Barbie movie posters and multiple Barbie-themed brand collaborations ranging from nail polish to roller skates, Barbie is everywhere. She has even gone viral as a fashion trend known as Barbiecore, exploding across social media with people embracing vibrant pink hues and hyper feminine aesthetics. A Barbie world is upon us. Although some have criticized this saturation strategy, it is a very deliberate marketing ploy to revitalize and redefine a brand with a contested position and history. As well as attracting...
