Zendaya and Robert Pattinson’s Onscreen Wedding Is Big Drama. These 8 Real-Life Unions Have Them Beat.

Published by Sam Flores

Any wedding involving one of the world’s richest men was bound to make news. But Bezos and Sánchez’s starry three-day celebration in Venice sparked major backlash among the Italian locals concerned for their floating home: Venice has sunk about 10 inches in the last century as water levels around it have also risen, and an influx of visitors, they worried, would exacerbate the situation. “Let’s make sure that Venice is not remembered as a postcard venue where Bezos had his wedding but as the city that did not bend to oligarchs,” protester Na Haby Stella Faye said at the time, according to The New York Times. “We have a chance to disrupt a $10 million wedding—let’s do it.” Reuters reported that security concerns stemming from the locals’ pre-wedding protests prompted the bride and groom to change their wedding-party venue. From June 26 to 28, the city was plastered with posters featuring Bezos’s head on a rocket and messages like this one: “In the time it takes to read this, Jeff Bezos’ wealth has increased more …

Zendaya And Robert Pattinson’s The Drama Faces Backlash Over Twist

Zendaya And Robert Pattinson’s The Drama Faces Backlash Over Twist

Published by Sam Flores

This article contains major spoilers for The Drama. Zendaya and Robert Pattinson’s new movie The Drama continues to face backlash and accusations of trivialising a serious issue. Released last week, the pair’s new movie centres around a young couple who are about to get married, only for their whole world to be turned upside down when a revelation from the bride-to-be’s past comes to light. What was deliberately left out of the film’s promotional material was the fact Zendaya’s character’s dark secret was that she had planned and almost carried out a school shooting when she was a teenager. Even before the movie had hit cinemas, its subject matter had proved to be controversial, with the father of a high school student killed in the Columbine shooting of 1999 telling TMZ he thought it was “awful” that the subject of mass violence should be used for entertainment. Since then, others affected by the subject have been speaking out. Mia Tretta, a survivor of two school shootings, told USA Today: “A character planning a school shooting …

Robert Pattinson’s No-Drama Style Is Exactly What Red Carpets Need

Robert Pattinson’s No-Drama Style Is Exactly What Red Carpets Need

Published by Jenni Sidey

Robert Pattinson doesn’t seem like one to make a fuss about things, especially getting dressed. The British actor is just as likely to hit the Cannes Film Festival in Converse sneakers as he is to attend a movie premiere wearing a disheveled runway look from Dior. All this to say, the 39-year-old star tends to dress like a guy who hasn’t been fawned over for years by tweens, donned Batman’s cowl to exact vengeance on his enemies, and worked with this generation’s greatest directors. Pattinson is currently out promoting the new A24 film The Drama, in which he stars alongside Zendaya. The rom-com drama-thriller centers around an engaged couple whose love for each other is tested when an unexpected reveal occurs right before their wedding, and, as usual, Zendaya and her longtime stylist Law Roach have been implementing elements of the film into her promotional style. Her red-carpet run has been influenced by the old Victorian-era superstition “something old, something new, something borrowed, something blue.” Pattinson, on the other hand, hasn’t been as interested in …

From the moment the first trailer for A24’s The Drama dropped—and honestly, even before that—the internet was abuzz with rumors and speculation about the film’s big twist. The pitch-black comedy from Norwegian director Kristoffer Borgli stars Zendaya and Robert Pattinson as Emma and Charlie, a Boston couple preparing for their wedding. When Emma and Charlie are at a food-and-wine tasting with their best friends, Rachel (Alana Haim) and Mike (Mamoudou Athie), the couples play a game where each person admits the worst thing they’ve ever done. It’s all in good fun until it becomes Emma’s turn, during which she admits to something so wild, so seemingly unforgivable, that she sends the entire outing, the wedding, and potentially her relationship into disarray. Instantly, there was only one question on everyone’s mind: What the hell did Emma do? Fans on Reddit feverishly speculated: Did Emma stalk Charlie before they started dating? Was infidelity involved? Nobody online knew for sure until the publication of a TMZ story that—intentionally or not—essentially spoiled the film, launching a whole new cycle …
