The Forthcoming Milli Vanilli Biopic ‘Girl You Know It’s True’ Reveals Its Cast

A Milli Vanilli biopic is on its way. Centering on the scandal involving dancers Pilatus and Morvan who pretended to be behind the 1980s hit “Girl You Know It’s True,” the movie is long-awaited and sure to touch on the intricacies of the music industry. Today, more about the movie was revealed, including the casting.

According to Deadline, Tijan Njie and Elan Ben Ali will play Fabrice Morvan and the late Rob Pilatus. Matthias Schweighöfer from Army of Thieves will play the German music producer Frank Farian. Graham Rogers, known for his role in Love and Mercy, will star as Milli Vanilli’s assistant Todd Headlee. Troy: Fall of a City‘s Bella Dayne will be Milli, Farian’s right-hand woman, who is the inspiration for the group’s name.

The film will be produced by Kevin Liles, the CEO of music company 300 Entertainment who also co-wrote the original version of “Girl You Know It’s True” with Baltimore DJ crew Numarx, and co-produced by Verhoeven, Farian, and Stefan Gärtner. Associate producers include Jasmin Davis, who is the daughter of the late John Davis, as well as Brad Howell who were the true voices of Milli Vanilli. It is produced by Leonine Studios and Wiedemann & Berg Film, and it’s in co-production with Sentana Film, SevenPictures, and Mediawan.

Kanye West Takes Another Swipe At Kid Cudi In A Post Declaring Adidas CEO Kasper Rørsted ‘Dead At 60’

Kanye West may have dialed down his Instagram petty to only celebrating his perceived enemies’ supposed failures, but he’s packing double the vitriol in those posts, often lashing out at two in the same post. His preferred secondary target is Kid Cudi, who he zings in the subheadlines of the bizarre fake New York Times covers he has been posting to strike out at rivals such as Pete Davidson and Adidas CEO Kasper Rørsted.

In his latest post, he declares the latter “also dead at 60,” calling back to his post about Pete. In the subheadline, though, he throws two jabs at once, writing, “I know what you’re thinking… who is Kasper? but even less importantly who is Kid Cudi?”

Actually, I was thinking how badly Kanye needs a copy editor, but I digress. In Kanye’s previous dig at his former artist, Kanye sniped at him for cutting his Rolling Loud set short after fans threw objects onstage. “Kid Cudi meant to play funeral but fearful of bottle throwers,” he trolled. His latest shot is likely a response he’s been sitting on since Cudi told Esquire he has no plans to reconcile with his former mentor.

“With all due respect, I’m not Drake,” he said. “It’s gonna take a motherf*cking miracle for me and that man to be friends again. I don’t see it happening. He gon’ have to become a monk.” Cudi later clarified that he meant no disrespect to Drake, with whom he previously did have a feud but they’ve since made up.

Kanye’s beef with Rørsted, meanwhile, stems from his belief that the Adidas chief is responsible for the company seemingly distancing itself from Kanye while continuing to use his designs, which is not in any way Kanye’s own fault for acting like a colicky toddler for the past year or so. Rørsted is stepping down as CEO sometime this year. May whoever succeeds him finally drop Kanye so he can enjoy his creative freedom, or whatever.

Kendrick Lamar Finally Releases “We Cry Together” Short Film

It’s been roughly five months since Kendrick Lamar blessed fans with his latest body of work, Mr. Morale & The Big Steppers. The two-disc album produced many highlights that carried through the summer but there were a few songs that sparked some serious dialogue. “We Cry Together” with actress Taylour Paige certainly stands as one of the most discussed pieces on the album as K. Dot and Paige’s chemistry capture a raw argument between couples.

Following the album’s release, Paige announced there was a visual component to the song that existed. They later debuted the short film “We Cry Together” exclusively in Los Angeles at the beginning of June, though there were many updates on when it could be available publicly on YouTube.

Today, they’ve finally unveiled the Oscar contender which hones in on the reality of a broken relationship. K. Dot and Paige act out the aggression and hostility in their household in a way that seems closer to a stageplay, which becomes evident when the camera zooms out at the end to show the set of the video shoot.

Though the song only dropped this year, the video was recorded live on March 15th, 2020, according to the YouTube description. Kendrick Lamar and Dave Free, the co-founders of pgLang, directed the video alongside Jake Schreier, who previously worked with Kanye West for “Follow God” and “Closed On Sunday,” as well as Chance The Rapper and Baby Keem.

Shannon Clermont Wants Secret Marriage To Celebrity Jeweler Alex Moss Annulled: Report

While her sister was shooting her shot at Steve Harvey, Shannon Clermont was apparently hiding a secret marriage. The Clermont Twins were first introduced as cast members of The Bad Girls Club, but after their stint on the defunct series ended, they made the most out of their fame. The identical sisters became models and faced scrutiny for their body modifications and surgeries, but they’ve accepted the criticism, capitalizing on every move.

For years, Shannon Clermont reportedly dated Alex Moss, a celebrity jeweler who has created designs for the likes of Drake, Jack Harlow, Tyler, The Creator, and more.

However, according to TMZ, there is trouble in paradise because Shannon has reportedly asked “a judge to nullify her brief and secret marriage.”

The outlet allegedly obtained Clermont’s court documents where she stated that she and Moss wed sometime back in March. Clermont shared that as far as she knew, Moss, a Canadian, was living in America on a student visa, and when he met with his immigration attorney, Moss was dealt difficult news. According to the legal advisor, Moss needed to be married so he wouldn’t be deported. Since the couple wanted to eventually wed anyway, they reportedly sped up the process.

Moss was said to have proposed on New Year’s Day but Clermont seemed disappointed that the engagement ring that she wanted wasn’t the one she received. She also took issue with Moss wanting her to keep news of the marriage under wraps, not sharing that they had a courthouse wedding with anyone, including her twin sister Shannade.

Although they dated for years, their happily ever after ended just four days after the couple tied the knot. Because they’ve been separated since March, Clermont now wants her marriage to be annulled as if it never occurred.
