Cayman Islands Showbiz Latest News and Updates

Armie Hammer is not working as a hotel concierge in the Cayman Islands, never mind the mischievous flyer that attempted to show otherwise. A lawyer for the star told  that a flyer that went viral on Twitter earlier this week showing the embattled actor as an employee at Morritt's Resort in Grand Cayman is the result of employees at that hotel pulling off an elaborate prank. The bizarre episode came to light when a producer for Showtime's  shared the flyer in a since-deleted tweet that read, «My friend's parents went on vacation in the Cayman Islands and Armie Hammer was their concierge.»The flyer depicts Hammer looking off-camera and smiling, along with his first name and the extension number where he can be reached at the hotel should the guests want to book a «swimming with wild turtles» session or tips on where to go snorkeling.

Muna Mire, a producer on the Showtime comedy “Desus & Mero.”Mire shared a fake flyer showing the “Death on the Nile” star working at Morritt’s Resort.“My friend’s parents went on vacation in the Cayman Islands and Armie Hammer was their concierge,” the Twitter post read.However, according to Variety, Hammer’s lawyer, Andrew Brettler, and an anonymous hotel worker stated that the post was indeed fake. The staffer, a 12-year employee, said that he sent the pamphlet to a few rooms as a prank.The Photoshopped leaflet noted: “I am your personal concierge and am here to help you get the very best from your vacation.” The paper also mentioned several discount vouchers available — and even suggested that Hammer, who is a frequent visitor of the tropical islands, can arrange excursions for guests that include “swimming with wild turtles,” snorkeling and diving outings, and “reasonable prices for bioluminescence and fishing trips.”Some employees who reportedly golf with the “Social Network” actor — who grew up visiting the Cayman Islands — apparently created the flyer as a joke.

Joe Leydon Film CriticIt may sound counterintuitive at best, tone-deaf at worse, to label a documentary focused on food providers aiding people in the wake of disasters as a feel-good movie. But that’s an honest, accurate and, yes, appreciative label for “We Feed People,” Ron Howard’s technically polished and emotionally stirring close-up view of celebrity chef José Andrés and his nonprofit World Central Kitchen.The movie effectively begins in media res, with the robustly gregarious Andrés and his dedicated crew  years into their vocation, providing hot meals to isolated residents of Wilmington, N.C., in the wake of 2018’s Hurricane Florence — and coming perilously close to tasting their own disaster when floodwaters almost topple their delivery truck — before backing up to explain just who Andrés is and what started him on his mission.A native of Spain, Andrés moved to the U.S.

The United Kingdom continued a long tradition of anti-LGBTQ action as bans on gay marriage in the UK’s territories of the Cayman Islands and Bermuda were upheld by the country’s Privy Council, the highest appeals court for many UK Caribbean territories.The Privy Council upheld existing bans on marriage equality in both the Cayman Islands and Bermuda, citing the fact that same-sex nuptials are explicitly banned under their respective, independent constitutions.According to PinkNews, both the Cayman Islands and Bermuda have legalized — and subsequently re-criminalized — gay marriage.In the Cayman Islands, gay marriage was temporarily legalized in March 2019 after a lesbian couple sued to have their marriage recognized by the government. But authorities appealed the lower court’s decision, resulting in a reversal – although the appeals court said that the government had to provide “legal status equivalent to marriage” for same-sex couples.The couple then appealed to the Privy Council, which sided with the appeals court in upholding the ban.In Bermuda, the government legalized gay marriage in May 2017 in response to an ongoing legal battle, but the government later recriminalized the practice in 2018 before once again legalizing it that same year.
