In the wake of a conciliatory statement from the companies that produce America’s Got Talent – NBC, Fremantle and Simon Cowell’s Syco – Gabrielle Union has issued her own statement, of sorts.
Union retweeted and gave resounding approval to a tweet from journalist Joelle Monique, who laid out the steps for “a solid apology.” Union added her own remarks, writing “This! This! And Thiiisssssss!!!!!!”
The reference was clear, and adds fuel to the fire that has been building with celebrity endorsements of Union’s cause following her Agt contract not being renewed.
“We remain committed to ensuring a respectful workplace for all employees and take very seriously any questions about workplace culture,” the statement from the Agt producers read. “We are working with Ms. Union through her representatives to hear more about her concerns, following which we will take whatever next steps may be appropriate.”
This! This! And Thiiisssssss!!!!!! https://t.

“America’s Got Talent” network NBC and producers Fremantle and Syco have released a new statement regarding former “Agt” host Gabrielle Union’s exit from the series.
“We remain committed to ensuring a respectful workplace for all employees and take very seriously any questions about workplace culture,” the group said Sunday in a joint statement. “We are working with Ms. Union through her representatives to hear more about her concerns, following which we will take whatever next steps may be appropriate.”
The statement comes five days after Variety‘s report that Union was let go from “America’s Got Talent” following complaints about a toxic workplace culture on the series.
Following the release of NBC’s statement, Union retweeted a tweet by entertainment and culture writer Joelle Monique, outlining the three steps to a “solid apology” and asserting that “anything less is covering your own ass.”
Union added, “This! This! And Thiiisssssss!

NBC and “America’s Got Talent” producers Fremantle and Syco said Sunday in a new statement that they are working with ousted host Gabrielle Union to hear “her concerns” about “workplace culture” and “take whatever next steps” are appropriate.
“We remain committed to ensuring a respectful workplace for all employees and take very seriously any questions about workplace culture,” the trio said Sunday in a joint statement. “We are working with Ms. Union through her representatives to hear more about her concerns, following which we will take whatever next steps may be appropriate.”
It was announced on Nov. 22 that Union, along with fellow “Agt” judge Julianne Hough, would not be returning for next year’s Season 15. Union’s contract was not renewed following several behind-the-scenes incidents and what showrunners described as “difficult” behavior, Vulture reported.

To call “Jojo Rabbit” a big swing may be an understatement. Taika Waititi‘s film bills itself as an “anti-hate satire,” but it’s still, to put it mildly, a creative risk to make a comedy about Adolf Hitler and the Holocaust. Nevertheless, it went over well with moviegoers at the Toronto Film Festival, where it won the People’s Choice Award. But what about critics? The film opened on October 18, so reviewers are having their say, and boy do they have a lot to say.
As of this writing the reactions are sharply divided. On MetaCritic the film has a score of 53 based on 32 reviews counted thus far: 15 positive, 12 mixed, 5 negative. But it’s a different story over on Rotten Tomatoes, the pass/fail aggregator where the film is rated 80% fresh based on 134 reviews: 107 positive and only 27 negative. The Rt critics’ consensus says, “‘Jojo Rabbit’s’ blend of irreverent...

Pixar fans have been waiting a whopping 14 years for Brad Bird’s beloved animated superhero movie from 2004 to get a sequel and now, it’s finally just around the corner in the form of Incredibles 2, which sees the return of Mr. Incredible, Elastigirl and their super-powered brood. The question is, though, will it be able to live up to all the hype and measure up to the original?
With the movie having premiered last night in Los Angeles, initial reactions to the sequel are now in and, thank Frozone, they’re overwhelmingly positive. Not everyone’s totally in love with it, but the majority of critics seem to dig what Pixar’s cooked up here.
Check out a selection of Tweets below to see what people are saying:
#Incredibles2 was worth waiting for: great action, strong character development, and a lot of fun – and every *moment* involving Jack-Jack is hilarious.

The first batch of media have seen Marvel's Black Panther, and they absolutely love it. Almost universally, all critics are praising Black Panther for its refreshing spin on the hero genre, the performance of Michael B. Jordan, and lots of other stuff. Take a look at some of the reactions from notable folks around the web:
Ryan Coogler knocked it out of the park, some great sequences presented in a “single take/shot.” If this movie isn’t nominated for costume, art and production design awards next year, I would be seriously shocked. #blackpanther

#marvel does it again with 'Black Panther'. Very impressed with the story and filmmaking. @michaelb4jordan absolutely kills it as the villain and is the best one since Loki. Also @DanaiGurira kicks so much ass and I loved every second of it. Going to make serious $. pic.twitter.com...
