"'If you hang up the phone after your interview and your pulse is racing and you say you were a little caught off guard by a question, you can probably get an edit,' said a publicist who works with high-profile talent." Love the details in this @AmyKinLA joint:

Podcasts have become Hollywood’s safest press stop. How stars decide who to talk to, how edits work, and the celeb podcast pecking order revealed. By the great @AmyKinLA lamaterial.com/p/the-unwritte…

More to the point, Substack also can't replace investigative reporting. It takes resources, time, and involves a tremendous amount of legal risk.

@KosichJohn Wait so...did you take this as it happened in Travis's yard?

.@AmyKinLA really dropped an all timer in her final piece for the LA Times.

@Etsy Hi, I just went to file an appeal but since you've suspended my account I can't log in to file the appeal? Please advise, as I'm unsure why my account was even suspended to begin with. Thank you.

@vanessafranko Watch the trailer!!

@AmyKinLA WHAT?!?!?!?!

Not enough people are talking about the fact that today we learned they killed Colin Firth's character in the new Bridget Jones movie. Like, WHAT??? No. I'm out. Rude and uncalled for.

“I want to tell people, whether they’re a little girl from the Midwest, a queer-identifying person, a first-generation immigrant — you control your story,” Keke Palmer says of her new book, “Master of Me.” Read @AmyKinLA’s latest “For Real” column. lat.ms/3CyIVJl

In her new book, Keke Palmer says one of her white female costars on "Scream Queens" once said to her: "Who do you think you are? Martin F-----g Luther King?" latimes.com/entertainment-…

In her new book, Keke Palmer says Ryan Murphy "ripped" into her after she took a planned day off on "Scream Queens," which she believes effectively ended any potential long-term working relationship between them. latimes.com/entertainment-…

In her new book, Keke Palmer writes about being compared to Zendaya when "Nope" was released: “I got people telling me my career isn’t as good as someone else’s because of the complexion of my skin? No, babe, I won’t let you project that onto me.” latimes.com/entertainment-…

“I’m not Harmony Korine or Lee Daniels. I’m Disney. I’m creating an aspirational picture.” Keke Palmer on her brand -- and how a domestic dispute with her baby's father last year threatened to rupture the image she's trying to present to the world. latimes.com/entertainment-…

Keke Palmer isn't worried about Keke Palmer. Why is everyone else? latimes.com/entertainment-…

Gotta keep moving forward..focus on what you can control. Inject as much positivity as you can into your daily life/inner circle. Flourishing local happiness eventually ripples into greater harmony. I have to believe. 🤍

incredible headline work here

“I think to judge anybody on a night when they are very intoxicated would be a tragic mistake," Chip Somers, who was Liam Payne's sober companion in 2017-18, said of his death. latimes.com/entertainment-…

Sources close to Capitol Records told The Times that the label and Payne’s management had disagreements this fall about the singer's musical direction, and Capitol was concerned about sending Payne on tour, given his recent struggles with substance use. latimes.com/entertainment-…

"He had no clue what we were going to be doing. It was clear his team hadn’t involved him in any conversations," said a music video director who worked with Liam Payne around 2019. latimes.com/entertainment-…

After working with Liam Payne for 2 years, his sober companion was optimistic about the singer's recovery when their work ended in 2018. When he later learned about Payne’s ongoing struggles, he sent the occasional text but didn’t want to push too hard. latimes.com/entertainment-…
