Ojai’s The Dutchess Restaurant Brings Cali-Burmese Flavors From the Rustic Canyon Family

Nick Cannon pining for lost love this Valentine's Day? The talk show host dropped a new song on Monday that serves as a love letter of sorts to his ex-wife, Mariah Carey.In Cannon's new song «Alone» — which tellingly sample's Carey's 1990 single «Love Take Time» — the 41-year-old artist and TV personality belts out some particularly poignant lyrics that allude to him still having feelings for the famed diva.«I say I’m cool when I know I miss it/ I’d trade it all for the case/ If I could have you back/ If I could go back to where we started at,» an apparently emotional Cannon croons on the track.Cannon shared the song to Twitter and wrote in the post, «This is for anybody else who is #ALONE on Valentines Day… I had to come Raw from the heart on this one. #Broken #Shattered #Toxic #RAW&B #Alone.»This is for anybody else who is #ALONE on Valentines Day… I had to come Raw from the heart on this one.

Kevin Hart got Nick Cannon in some hot water with his latest prank. Earlier this week, Hart gifted Cannon a vending machine full of condoms as part of his latest prank in the pair's «prank wars» challenge, but the prank didn't go over too well for the talk show host at home.Cannon was joined by his  co-stars earlier this week, and he spoke about how the stunt caused him some «baby mama drama.»«I still think me wrapping his face on my private plane is better than his sending me a vending machine full of condoms,» Cannon told ET's Kevin Frazier of Hart's NSFW prank.«Vending machine full of condoms is a much bigger hassle to get out of a dressing room and takes up all the space,» Hart chimed in. «And one thing that was brilliant about it, it was the mystery of it, because I had up some baby mama drama, 'Who sent you that? Who sent you that?'» Cannon said. «So, I did have to do some real life stuff, and then when he came out and said it was him, everybody relaxed.»Hart's prank came just days after Cannon announced that he's expecting his eighth child with model, Brie Tiesi.«It's about complicating a person's day, how do I make your day difficult? That's a beautiful prank,» Hart added of the hilarious moment.A post shared by Kevin Hart (@kevinhart4real)The friends and co-stars have a couple more shenanigans in store on their BET+ original series, .

Rebecca Rubin Film and Media ReporterAt some point in the past decade, Hollywood stopped looking at the burgeoning Chinese box office as found money and instead embraced the theatrical market’s windfall for what it has become: a necessity.Today, whether or not blockbuster plays in China could mean the difference between hundreds of millions of dollars in ticket sales. That reality is downright painful at a time when China has continued to deny releases for Hollywood’s biggest 2021 movies, such as Disney’s “Black Widow,” “Shang-Chi and the Legend of the Ten Rings” and “Eternals,” as well as Sony’s “Venom: Let There Be Carnage.” And the few films that were given access to Chinese movie theaters, including MGM’s James Bond sequel “No Time to Die” and Denis Villeneuve’s “Dune” remake, earned far less than their studios had expected.

EXCLUSIVE: After teaming in the Disney/Marvel film Shang-Chi and the Legend of the Ten Rings, Michelle Yeoh is set to top an international cast for the Destin Daniel Cretton-directed Disney+ fantastical series American Born Chinese. She will star alongside Ben Wang (MacGyver), Yeo Yann Yann (Wet Season), Chin Han (Mortal Kombat), Daniel Wu (Reminiscence), Ke Huy Quan (Finding Ohana), former Taekwondo champion Jim Liu and Sydney Taylor (Just Add Magic).

Richard Kuipers Family photos, propaganda images and grainy archival footage are manipulated, re-processed and overlaid with wonderfully simple and highly effective animation in “Silver Bird and Rainbow Fish.” This imaginative documentary essay by 36-year-old U.S.-based Chinese artist-animator-filmmaker Lei Lei assembles striking imagery and deeply personal audio recordings to chart his family’s history in China from the late 1950s to the early ’70s. Though it runs a little too long, “Silver Bird” should have a bright future at general film festivals and those specializing in animation.After basing his 2019 feature debut “Breathless Animals” on his mother’s recollections of life in 20th century China, Lei has turned this time to audio interviews he conducted with his father Lei Jiaqi and grandfather Lei Ting in China between 2012 and 2021.
