I wouldn't think that lower or mid level actors, musicians, producers, etc. have to "pay their dues" via the casting couch, rituals, etc....I'm sure many get to a certain level of success via hard work, talent, etc...
However, when it comes to superstar status..either music or acting...that is an entirely different ballgame. It's an elite chosen group and there is a reason certain ones are chosen. That's what I suspect anyhow.

Total BULLSHIT. I know of many actors that have made it without that "different ballgame"..My son is almost at that level. He is making 80k per episode (Thats a week) and he has never done anything like that. Many of his co-stars girls and guys, their ages are between 20-25 all making more then 80k a week have never done anything that would entail sex. One girl at the age of 20 is making 180,000 an episode, normal everyday girl! Worth 8 million. That's some serious dough..
 Quoting: Anonymous Coward 30670164


I just looked and Bryan Cranston (Breaking Bad) makes 125k an episode. But a 20 year old chick is making 180k an episode?

I'll never understand the reason that people lie so much on the internet.

Re: How Hollywood Actually Works

 Quoting: Anonymous Coward 40500345


Not necessarily....tweens, teenagers, young adults especially tend to try and emulate their music/movie star idols. They will emulate their style of dress, and their behavior, etc.

If the big stars demonstrate trashy and risky behavior, many of their young fans...and sometimes old...will try to copy their behavior.

That is one of the reasons smoking became so popular in the 50's through the 70's...all of the big stars smoked on screen in their movies and made it seem "cool" so everybody copied them.

The stars are well aware of this.
The executives are well aware of this.
The producers are well aware of this.

They do influence behavior to a degree and they know they do.

Sooooo why do they present as "cool" such degenerate behavior???

Why do they knowingly influence young girls to dress like sluts and sleep around??? and then try to deny it.

It's not "just entertainment"...I don't buy that for a second.

I have a friend who is mid level famous due to husband being a very famous sports player. One of the networks offered her a movie deal. But said first they have a Hollywood psychic she needed to meet with to help her decide if she should do it or not. She decided not to do the movie because of how long she would be away from her kids. But I always thought that was strange that they wanted her to meet with a psychic (who was going to fly out to her for free).

Re: How Hollywood Actually Works
I could buy that all of this Hollywood conspiracy theory stuff is just an "urban legend" or myth...but, if it is, there are some very high level executives out there with very little concern for the negative effect they have on the general population..and even less of a conscience.

for example....rap and hip hop music. The Black community in the US is in some serious trouble. The culture in black urban areas is beyond toxic. This culture has been heavily influenced by Hollywood and the music industry.
What is Hollywood doing to help turn this around????? Absolutely nothing...not only are they not trying to promote entertainment to be any type of positive influence on the black community..they are continuing to promote every possible type of destructive behavior possible...feeding into the stereotypes..promoting them.

They can see what is happening in these communities and how bad it is, but instead continue to just make money off it.

This is just one example.

If they are not luciferians, they are at the very least sociopaths.

In regards to rap and where hip hop went from the late 80's to the present day, it's somewhat of a chicken vs. egg situation.

Yes, there are major labels that promote the top acts that get played on the radio but it's a different paradigm now that rappers can become famous via the internet. While I can only speculate on the intentions of the top executives in the record industry, a business is a business; they have no obligation to set a moral standard.

For example, if rappers that are credible as drug dealers are what the masses want to buy, that is what will be promoted. In turn, it influences more rappers to be "about that life" in their music.

Is that not what the proverbial "Jesus lover" wants?

If a situation presented itself for them to become martyrs then I would imagine their overly zealous sense of righteousness would be validated. Until then though, they just continually look for opportunities to be seen as victims, ironically, for believing something that's supposed to give them strength.

8 years watching him, sitting on set, driving him, meeting 100's of top actors, directors and producers and hearing the stories..I know a lot..over 37 movies, series, MOW's.
yes there were some insane things but NOTHING that video states..
 Quoting: Anonymous Coward 30670164


I would have to agree. I worked on several films in the eighties and a hell of a lot of straight to video and TV b stuff. I saw nothing if the sort. All business. The actors were quite pampered, actually. Even the sex scenes were controlled and quite private. Most were actually body doubles or the explicit stuff. It was all very professional, most of those involved in the process were pretty decent people, actors included. I'm wondering where OP got his info.....worked on Con Air, Dumb and Dumber, Ace Venture, home of our own, The Stand, touched by an angel, Slaughter of the innocents, and about half a dozen more that I can't recall titles for....

Gonna have to call it....

You do realize that none of what he's talking about actually happens anywhere near the set, right? I don't care if you're a PA, an AD, a grip or whatever. You don't see any of it. You're not allowed to see any of it.

If you get drunk enough with some actors at the bar or a wrap party, you'll damn well hear about it. I know I have.
