kismet December 30, 2016 Share December 30, 2016 I've been wondering about his crowdfunded movie... do we think his wife will be given a role in it? She is an actress and they do have an in with casting. I'm watching the new season of ANTM as a guilty pleasure and they just had the makeover episode, in which there were more dramatics but nothing as big as his wife's departure from that show. IMO, her character will live in realty show infamy, which to me is saying a lot. 3 Link to comment

bijoux December 30, 2016 Share December 30, 2016 She left the show after they chopped off her chestnut hair and dyed it platinum. It seems like it would have been wiser to leave before that, but she was 19 or something at the time, so I'm not really judging her for this. 2 Link to comment
tv echo December 30, 2016 Share December 30, 2016 (edited) Here's the SA facebook post link (pertinent portion quoted)... https://www.facebook.com/stephenamell/posts/1255974567821141 Quote Starting in January (4th-ish) we will have someone helping me full time with the page. Like, I literally hired somebody to work with me in any and all online initiatives. What does that mean? Well, it means a bunch of things. First and foremost, the running of this page will still be 100% me. I am - and will continue to be - responsible for any and all content that appears here. I didn't farm things out to a social media company. Why? Because I know more than they do. Instead, I hired a very capable individual who has grown along with the page. More on them in a few days. What will they be doing? Generally, a ton. Specifically as it relates to this space: - Monitoring visitor posts and any discussion in the post threads. I'll shut this page down before it turns into a space that doesn't cater to any opinion that doesn't lay its infrastructure on belittling someone else's. - Curating questions for Q&A's that I can answer live. I can't take questions on live posts. Facebook hasn't made it easy enough to find unique queries. Not a criticism. Just facts :) - I'll still be selecting #FanArtFriday, #MemeMonday and the triumphant return of #LightSaberSaturday, but my trusty collaborator will make sure those posts go up on a consistent basis every Monday, Friday and Saturday. - Create new initiatives based on prevailing sentiment, prevailing trends and cool things that being immersed in the page will plant in their brain. - Create content and studio spaces that feel professional - yet, impulsive - well lit - and still understated - properly built for sound - with no auto tune. - Probably a bunch of things that I haven't even considered because I'm planning to make 27 episodes of tv and a feature film this year. (Still smarter than social media companies.) This was always going to the end game with a page that crossed 400,000 friends in late 2013 and will cross 5,400,000 friends sometime in early 2017. I really do love this space and the relationships it has allowed me to foster with so many groups of people I never ever would've stumbled across without its incredible reach... but it was becoming a bit of a burden because I could feel the control and the sense of personalization slipping away ever so slightly. Even if you couldn't. So here we are. I think this year is going to be terrific. Edited December 30, 2016 by tv echo Link to comment

But seriously, makeovers are part of the show and all the dramatics and quitting is a little ridiculous. It's like quitting an exercise class because it made you sweat. And like someone said above hair grows back. It's not like they made her get plastic surgery which I have heard some modeling agencies suggest. A haircut and a dye job is pretty low in the grand scheme of things. Then again, she is one of the only contestants I remember years later - so perhaps it was a smart move on her part.

Yes, she had a one episode role on Mad Men, playing a model. Caity Lotz was also in that episode but she basically only filmed scenes with Jon Hamm. 1 Link to comment
loki567 December 31, 2016 Share December 31, 2016 I had to look her up and she played a friend of Peggy's lesbian friend, Joyce. She actually didn't have a scene with Jon Hamm. And completely OT, but a funny thing about Mad Men, how absolutely stocked the show was with former and current WB/CW actors. Probably a complete coincidence but I like to pretend that Matthew Weiner spends all of his free time obsessing about The Vampire Diaries. 4 Link to comment

Velocity23 December 31, 2016 Share December 31, 2016 That would be my guess. The people waited for their DVDs for months now. So i guess no agreement could be reached. So now KC will get edited out. Also means part of the Willa/Emily panel will be missing because KC joined it. 1 Link to comment
LeighAn December 31, 2016 Share December 31, 2016 I'm not too knowledgable about entertainment contracts and Hollywood BTS but is wanting money for your image in that context a reasonable request? I mean she would have been paid to attend the con in the first place right? So is it reasonable for her to want money for videos from the con? I mean I get wanting money if someone uses your image to market a product or something but a video recap seems no different then people taking recordings on their phone. Link to comment
Chaser December 31, 2016 Share December 31, 2016 Is getting a video of the con normal? Is it extra or apart of the package? They should have made sure their ducks were in a row before offering the video to the fans. That's a bad on them, but it doesn't look that great for KC either. Esp if she is the only one being edited out. 1 Link to comment
Velocity23 December 31, 2016 Share December 31, 2016 (edited) I think it's normal for the European cons. I remember parts of it being posted by the people who got the DVD from the first year. Edited December 31, 2016 by Velocity23 1 Link to comment
calliope1975 December 31, 2016 Share December 31, 2016 I get that contracts should have covered DVD use, but that is a level of petty that rivals TSwift's lawyers sending C&D letters to people who use her songs at their weddings and post vids on YouTube. Jeez, celebs, have some perspective. 13 Link to comment
bethy December 31, 2016 Share December 31, 2016 (edited) If you're taking a long-term perspective on things, why would you want to alienate your fans - the people who paid a good amount of money to come see you and might do the same thing again in the future - and the con itself - the people who have the power to invite you and pay you a good amount (a butt-load?) of money to come to these things in the future? It's definitely petty, but it also seems to be remarkably short-sighted and kind of stupid. Edited December 31, 2016 by bethy Because "cited" isn't the same as "sighted." 11 Link to comment
Lily-n11 December 31, 2016 Share December 31, 2016 Wasn't there some chatter back then shortly after the con ended that they would not invite her back because she was causing ... schedule problems or something like this? If that's true maybe this is her answer to them? I have no idea. But as I said before I would really, really like to know everything that's going on bts. Still waiting for that book. 2 Link to comment
Primal Slayer December 31, 2016 Share December 31, 2016 Well that sucks, I wonder why they didn't include dvds in the contract and part of the pay (I am assuming these are being sold for money). If I were a celeb I probably wouldn't care but to each their own. Link to comment

I thought Hamm was in the casting scene, but I can't swear on it. CL definitely had scenes with Hamm, seeing as she played real Don Draper's widow's niece. ETA: Nevermind, you're right.

I wonder if this is an indication that she's mostly done with Arrow despite the "cross show contract" and just looking to cash in as much as she can? If she was going to be on a lot more, surely it would be more prudent to as you say, take the long term perspective and agree to release them, especially as you get paid a *lot* to attend the con in the first place. Or she could just be petty and stupid. 1 Link to comment

kismet December 31, 2016 Share December 31, 2016 It really makes me wonder if the only reason they gave KC a new contract was to use her image whenever they wanted. She seems to have a very good representation, so I guess it works out better for the Flarrowverse to have her on one of those special contracts then to calculate a pay out whenever they want to use her name, image, etc. On the other hand, I hope the Paris Con gets it together this year, it seems like they had a lot of technical struggles last year. 2 Link to comment

The new black Canary is essentially hinged on how laurel wanted to not be the last one and I'm sure if DC wants a new Canary for multiple reasons. So it makes sense why they'd want to use her image to bring her on... Because DC. Link to comment
