Celebrity Status – Taylor, Timberlake, Fallon, And A Fierce Fanbase
For Monday, January 29th:
Days after those AI-generated images of Taylor Swift began circulating on X, her name now yields no search results on the platform. Various organizations are now calling for tighter restrictions and even legislation around AI, especially when used for explicit fake content.
A super quiet weekend at the box office, with Jason Statham’s action flick The Beekeeper taking in only $7.4 million in its third weekend to take the No. 1 spot. Right behind in second place was Mean Girls followed by Wonka.
A father and daughter are suing Pauly Shore for assault and battery for an alleged incident that took place at his club the Comedy Store in late 2022. The alleged assault was not committed by Pauly Shore but by his security staff.
Saturday Night, Jimmy Fallon and Justin Timberlake were stayin’ live as they went full Bee Gees in a SNL revival of the classic Barry Gibb Talk Show sketch.
Meanwhile, Timberlake released a new song last week called Selfish… and Britney Spears fans joined forces to “dethrone” him from his number one spot on the iTunes charts using her song of the same name from 2011. Never underestimate the power of a fan base!
