Published by Daniella Wilson

Chuck Lorre has done a lot for the Venice Family Clinic, and the clinic will soon do something for him. The TV mogul is confirmed to receive an inaugural lifetime achievement award at the Venice Family Clinic’s HEART Gala at Culver City’s 3Labs on April 18. The event will also shine a light on philanthropist Anissa Balson and the Hearst Foundations with the presentation of a HEART Award. The gala, designed to combine Health and Art initiatives, was mounted to celebrate “how creativity and compassion intersect to transform health care access across Los Angeles.” In addition to the honorees, a performer is expected to be added to the show to close it out. Nobody Wants This star Jackie Tohn will host the evening. Lorre’s trophy is headed his way in recognition of his decades of philanthropic efforts and major contributions to the clinic.

(RNS) — Religion portrayed in contemporary American entertainment isn’t turning people away from their screens, but new research suggests it may be a key factor in some television shows’ and movies’ appeal, regardless of people’s religious or political affiliation. A national survey conducted by HarrisX, a data analytics and market research company, in partnership with the Faith & Media Initiative, explored how audiences react to expressions of faith when they appear in mainstream movies and television, including in shows such as “The Pitt,” “Young Sheldon,” “Hacksaw Ridge,” “The West Wing,” “Ramy” and “Nobody Wants This.” The survey, released this week, found that 77% of entertainment consumers agreed that faith in TV and movies is broadly appealing, with support consistent across age groups — including Generation Z (79%), millennials (83%), Generation X (78%) and baby boomers (72%) — as well as across political party lines (Republicans 82%, Democrats 75%, independents 73%).  Brooke Zaugg, executive director of the Faith & Media Initiative since 2021, also pointed to the finding that 92% of consumers said they are open to …

There are probably quite a few women you would love to have been set up with George Clooney, but the same can’t be said for Nobody Wants This executive producer Sara Foster. During a recent episode of the podcast, The World’s First Podcast, which she co-hosts with her sister and the creator of the hit Netflix series, Erin Foster, Sara revealed that Cindy Crawford and her husband, Rande Gerber, once arranged a date with her and the Oscar winner. “Do you guys know that I got set up with George Clooney like 30 years ago and it was such a blah?” Foster confessed. “Sorry, had to say it.” This was clearly news to Erin, who asked in a surprised tone, “Wait, sorry, you went on a date with him?” “Rande and Cindy tried to set me up with him, like, when I was 24 maybe? And the four of us met and it was just such a hard no. You didn’t know that?” Sara clarified before adding, “I remember just thinking, ‘Oh, he is so old.’ …
