Hollywood Execs Don’t Like Twitter
Many people go on Twitter just so they can follow celebrities and see what they have to say, some celebrities even give spoilers or news on movies and TV shows. This is going to end apparently.
The Hollywood Reporter says that a number of studio deals have a new part to contracts : actors, writers, executives and pretty much anybody who is signing a contract can’t give out information.
Cameron Diaz and Mike Myers are an example of this, in their new contract for Shrek 4 it states they can’t put any information of the production on “interactive media such as Facebook, Twitter, or any other interactive social network or personal blog.â€
An entertainment lawyer says “this is just the beginning, Hollywood has a long history of controlling what talent says in the media. This is just a new area of media that hasn’t been controlled yet.â€
What are your thoughts on all of this? I love Twitter but I kind of agree with the executives. They just need to find a balance.
