Photo: Apple TV+‘Flora and Son” are a young single mom and her teen boy, who have much in common. Stuck together in a tiny flat in “permanently grim” Ireland, they’re both thieves, they both have few prospects (she’s a nanny, and not a very good one), and they’re both living with someone they can’t stand. Who can blame a kid for turning out this badly when his mother forgets his birthday and muses that sometimes she wishes he’d disappear? Each of them also dabbles in making music, however, and when they stumble into crafting a song together, the dynamic between them shifts.

NEW YORK (AP) — Actor Sophie Turner sued her estranged pop star husband Joe Jonas on Thursday to force him to turn over the passports of the couple's two young daughters so she can take them to England. So, Turner said she and Jonas had agreed that the children would travel with Jonas and a nanny. According to Turner, Jonas filed for divorce in Florida on Sept. 1 and she learned about it through the media on Sept. 5. The Jonas Brothers were scheduled to perform in Philadelphia on Thursday and in Baltimore on Friday. Jonas has been a pop idol since he and his brothers Nick and Kevin formed the Jonas Brothers in 2005.

ELLEN STUTZMANEllen Stutzman was the one sitting across the table from Lombardini in the failed negotiations that led to the writers strike. Stutzman, also an attorney, took over as chief negotiator for the Writers Guild on Feb. 28, just two weeks before contract talks began. She still has the title from her previous role: assistant executive director for the Writers Guild of America West. Drescher's less-known counterparts on the writers' side — technically two unions that unite for negotiations and strikes — are Michael Winship and Meredith Stiehm. Winship is president of the Writers Guild of America East and Stiehm president of its counterpart in the West.

Unions have nowhere near the pull, or members, that they did decades ago, yet something has changed. Fain became president of United Auto Workers this year, but his time with the union began at that then-Chrysler plant in 1994. He vowed to clean up the union and unite members following a wide-ranging scandal that landed two former presidents in prison. The union under Fain has threatened to hit more plants if there is not enough movement from automakers during negotiations.

Child care 'is a public good'Experts say that systemic change, such as broader parental leave and more public funding for child care, must be involved in order for child care to improve at a larger scale. The national annual cost of child care was about $10,853 for one child in 2022, the organization Child Care Aware of America found. In 2023, 67% of parents reported to spend 20% or more of their household income on child care, Care.com found.

The mandatory raise would apply to all fast food restaurants in California that are part of a chain with at least 60 locations nationwide. The agreement ends an tense standoff between labor unions and the fast food industry that started last year when Democratic Gov. Gavin Newsom signed a law creating a Fast Food Council with the authority to raise wages of fast food workers up to $22 per hour. In exchange for a $20 minimum wage, labor unions have withdrawn their legislation to make fast food companies liable for their franchise operators' labor violations and lawmakers have stripped funding for the Industrial Welfare Commission. The Fast Food Council created in the original legislation would still exist, but it would only have the authority to set wages, not workplace standards.

Over 2,400 celebrities flocked to Cameo amid the SAG-AFTRA strike. AdvertisementAdvertisementShort-video request app Cameo has seen over 2,400 celebrities starting or reactivating their accounts since the actors' strike began in July, the company's CEO told CNN on Sunday. Cameo is an app where users can pay celebrities to make personalized short clips. Despite the recent influx of celebrities, Cameo has grappled with layoffs, axing 80 of its workforce in July and leaving the company with less than 50 employees, the Information reported. Galanis said at the time Cameo hired too many workers too quickly to "support both fan and talent demand during the pandemic lockdowns."

(An unusually dark aspect of the Carey era: a new game called Pay the Rent.) Contestants lucky enough to come on down won prizes that some of them could not have afforded otherwise, prizes that they may not have wanted and. People populated that studio audience because they weren’t at work, because work couldn’t substitute for the excitement of being on television. If we watched the show in the Barker years, if we watch it now, that likely means that we weren’t at work either. If he wanted a new car, no yodeling would be required, no frenzy.

The AI Nanny in Your Baby’s Future
  + stars: | 2023-08-11 | by ( Dana Suskind | ) www.wsj.com   time to read: 1 min
Imagine being the parent of an infant or toddler a decade from now. Most aspects of child rearing won’t have changed, but others may well be transformed by the use of artificial intelligence. AI devices are likely to become electronic babysitters, just as previous generations of parents adopted television and video games as tools for lightening their caregiving duties.

My friend’s nanny is good friends with my own nanny. This friend introduced me to her circle of friends a few years ago, and it’s because of her that I am part of a great group of women. Should I intervene and risk her behaving even worse toward her nannies and creating a rift in the friend circle? If you live in one of these jurisdictions, you could give your friend’s nanny the phone number of the office in the labor department that investigates such cases. But this line of approach probably makes sense only if the nanny is ready to move on.

Rosie O'Donnell says she was asked about running for SAG-AFTRA president in 2021. She told The Wall Street Journal she didn't want to run, but suggested Fran Drescher instead. Rosie O'Donnell told The Wall Street Journal that the SAG-AFTRA had been in touch before its most recent election in 2021 to ask if she was interested in running as president. She said she wasn't interested but suggested they contact her friend Drescher instead, because of her "Norma Rae-like ability to inspire." She can succinctly choose the words that are going to have the most impact in the smallest amount of time," O'Donnell told the newspaper.

Existential hand-wringing has always been part of Hollywood’s personality. But the crisis in which the entertainment capital now finds itself is different. They joined 11,500 already striking screenwriters, who walked out in May over similar concerns, including the threat of artificial intelligence. Actors and writers had not been on strike at the same time since 1960. “Now it’s a walled-in vacuum.”

The actors' union said on Thursday its board had unanimously agreed to a strike after failing to reach a deal with studios, including Walt Disney Co (DIS.N) and Netflix Inc (NFLX.O). Officials said actors would join picket lines in New York and Los Angeles starting on Friday. The economic damage is expected to spread after actors join the picket lines. The actors' walkout will shut down the studios' remaining U.S.-based productions of film and scripted television and hamper many overseas shoots. Britain's main entertainment industry union Equity said it backed its U.S. counterpart and would be bringing up many of the same issues in its own contract negotiations over the next 12 months.

It could be the first simultaneous strike by actors and writers in more than 60 years. The union representing 160,000 actors is set to call for a strike after contract talks failed to reach an agreement. And not since 1960 have both the actors and writers' unions taken industrial action at the same time. The union's negotiating committee voted unanimously to recommend a strike, on which its national board will vote Thursday morning. The results of SAG-AFTRA's national board vote on strike action are due to be announced at a press conference at 12 p.m. PT Thursday.

LOS ANGELES, July 13 (Reuters) - Hollywood actors will go on strike at midnight on Thursday after talks with studios broke down, joining film and television writers who have been on picket lines since May and deepening the disruption of scores of shows and movies. The actors' union announced at a Thursday press conference that the strike will begin at midnight after its national board unanimously authorized the walkout. Fran Drescher, former star of "The Nanny" TV show and the president of SAG-AFTRA, called the studios' responses to actors' concerns "insulting and disrespectful." But the loss of actors, who will also not promote their films or TV shows while on strike, will put more pressure on media companies to find a resolution. The economic damage is expected to spread after actors join the picket lines on Friday.

The actors could be on strike themselves without a last-minute deal with studios and streaming services on Wednesday. Production of many movies and television shows have already been shut down by the current writers strike. An actors strike would bring most remaining productions to a halt, other than on some independent films not associated with studios. This would be the first actors strike against television shows and movie productions since 1980. Just before the last deadline, it seemed as if an actors strike could be avoided.

New York CNN —Fran Drescher, the president of the SAG-AFTRA union, is facing criticism for traveling to Italy to attend Dolce & Gabbana’s Alta Moda festivities this past weekend as her 160,000-member actors union faces a Thursday deadline to go on strike. And we are concerned by the idea that SAG-AFTRA members may be ready to make sacrifices that leadership is not. An actors strike would bring most remaining productions to a halt, other than on some independent films not associated with studios. There has been no visible progress in ending the writers strike since it started on May 2. This could be the first actors strike against television shows and movie productions since 1980.
