Dylan Mulvaney last year — in which he shot up cases of the beer in a viral display that sparked a boycott of the brand — Kid Rock is now saying that he was firing blanks, not bullets.“So, what’s it like being the dude who took out Bud Light?” Joe Rogan asked the country-rocker on his podcast “The Joe Rogan Experience.”“Man, I was just having fun, to be honest with you,” Rock, 53, responded.“I was pissed, but it wasn’t like it was going to wreck my day, let alone my life. I was just kind of like, ‘What the f–k are they doing?’ ”But after Mulvaney posted a video promoting Bud Light as part of the company’s March Madness campaign last April, Rock let it rip on social media: “f–k Bud Light and f–k Anheuser-Busch.”That led to massive Bud Light losses, with many refusing to drink or even stock the beer.But while Rock insists that he wasn’t the “Pied Piper” of the boycott, he admits that he was the “face” of it.“Throwing a tantrum with a machine gun? ‘Wah, wah, they wanna let guys play in girls’ sports, wah,’” said Rock, then imitating the sounds of an automatic weapon.But since the whole brew-haha, the “Picture” singer said that he’s actually become friends with Bud Light CEO Brendan Whitworth — and the two have even partied together.“We’ve become friends.

Cannes Film Festival.Members of the production team for “Butterly Vision,” by Ukrainian director Maksym Nakonechni, protested the ongoing war in Ukraine while on the red carpet Wednesday.In front of Salle Debussy, the second-largest theater in Cannes, the team — including producers Darya Bassel and Yelizaveta Smit, plus actress Rita Burkovska — held a banner that read, “Russians kill Ukrainians. Do you find it offensive or disturbing to talk about this genocide?”The sirens heard on the red carpet stairs were meant to symbolize air raids in Ukraine, while the protestors held signs that read “sensitive content” over their faces.Not only were they demonstrating the ongoing devastation in Ukraine, but they were also attempting to show the extent of Russian censorship.The film “Butterfly Vision” explores a similar idea, albeit in a fictional world.

wokeworkers to bed. In light of internal dissension triggered by productions like Dave Chappelle’s chaotically controversial stand-up special, Netflix has reportedly issued a shady missive to its disgruntled staffers, underscoring that the streaming behemoth values the “artistic expression” of its content creators over each employee’s personal thoughts, beliefs and lifestyles. And any worker who doesn’t like it can ’Flix off. “As employees we support the principle that Netflix offers a diversity of stories, even if we find some titles counter to our own personal values,” read the memo, titled “Netflix Culture — Seeking Excellence.”“Depending on your role, you may need to work on titles you perceive to be harmful,” the communiqué continued.

school district policy prohibiting educators from “us[ing] the classroom to transmit personal beliefs regarding political to sectarian issues.”“In Irving ISD, our campuses are a safe zone for all students,” Irving Independent School District said in the statement issued in response to Stonecipher’s suspension. “To ensure that all students feel safe regardless of background or identity, the district has developed guidelines to ensure that posters, banners and stickers placed in classrooms, hallways or offices are curriculum driven and neutral in viewpoint.”At the time, Stonecipher, an English and journalism teacher who sponsors the school’s Gender and Sexuality Alliance, had argued that “safe space” stickers are not inherently political, but simply signal that a teacher feels confident to have conversations with LGBTQ students who may be struggling with their identity or their sense of belonging.She also noted that there was a lot of “hurt, confusion, and ear from students who feel like the administration has a problem with them for being LGBTQ+.”Following Stonecipher’s removal from the classroom, hundreds of MacArthur High School students walked out of class to protest what they saw as discrimination directed against LGBTQ students and staff.

Sunday’s 2022 Oscars ceremony.This year’s show has earned much controversy — from eliminating the presentation of eight of the 23 categories during the live broadcast to not requiring attendees to show proof of COVID-19 vaccinations. Guests will only need to show a negative PCR test or a negative rapid antigen test on the day of the ceremony.But it seems not airing the makeup, hair, sound and other categories is a sticking point for Tinseltown.Cinema Audio Society president Karol Urban confirmed Thursday that there is a game plan for guests to don their guild badges upside down during Sunday’s show, according to Deadline.Another part of the strategy will be for winners to flip their Oscars when they get on stage to accept them during the ceremony.“There is a multitude of different organizations that are working together to find ways to circumvent having their voices clipped,” Urban, who leads the pack for representations of sound mixers, said.She continued, “As the Oscars get closer, more and more craft people are showing solidarity.

this is our song.”Twisted Sister lead singer Dee Snider loves that his 1984 smash hit “We’re Not Gonna Take It” is being used as a battle hymn by Ukraine’s resistance against Russian invaders, he proclaimed on Twitter.“I absolutely approve of Ukrainians using “We’re Not Gonna Take It” as their battlecry. My grandfather was Ukrainian, before it was swallowed up by the USSR after WW2.

wrote in a “Déjà Vu” statement.“While we always value alternate points of view, knowingly spreading disinformation during this global pandemic has deadly consequences. Until real action is taken to show that a concern for humanity must be balanced with commerce, we don’t want our music—or the music we made together—to be on the same platform.”Young started the trend when he pulled his solo catalog from the streaming service last week in protest of “fake information about vaccines” being spread on the popular “The Joe Rogan Experience.” Joni Michell, a contemporary of the 60s supergroup, followed suit on the heels of Young’s announcement and Nash joined the chorus of musicians requesting to flee the service on Tuesday, calling on Spotify to be “responsible and accountable” for its content.The band’s request applies to music the band released both with and without sometimes-member Young, as well as solo releases from Crosby and Stills, according to a press release.Crosby tweeted last month that removing his catalog might be difficult because he sold his recorded music and publishing rights. Music from CSNY, CSN and Crosby, Nash and Stills was still on Spotify as of Thursday night.Rogan, who has a $100 million deal with the streaming service, addressed accusations on Sunday that his show promoted unsanctioned COVID-19 treatments and claimed that vaccinations were harmful to some.“I’m not trying to promote misinformation.

Neil Young bandmate Nils Lofgren is the latest musician to take his solo work off of Spotify, in protest of COVID-19 vaccine misinformation being spread by Joe Rogan.Lofgren, 70, joined Canadian legends Young and Joni Mitchell in removing their music from the streaming service in protest of the podcaster.“A few days ago, my wife Amy and I became aware of Neil and Daryl [Hannah] standing with hundreds of health care professionals, scientists, doctors and nurses in calling out Spotify for promoting lies and misinformation that are hurting and killing people,” the Rock and Roll Hall of Famer wrote on Young’s newsletter Saturday.“When these heroic women and men, who’ve spent their lives healing and saving ours, cry out for help you don’t turn your back on them for money and power. You listen and stand with them.”Rogan has pushed unproven conspiracy theories and anti-vaccination messages on his popular show “The Joe Rogan Experience.”Spotify officials ruled his commentaries “didn’t meet the threshold for removal,” based on policies that allow podcasters to criticize medical guidance, according to internal memos reviewed by The Verge.“We apply our policies consistently and objectively,” Spotify PR leader Dustee Jenkins reportedly told employees.
