Dakota Johnson slams Hollywood bosses: Too focused on 'remaking the same things'
Dakota Johnson thinks Hollywood is in a "bit of a mess" because studios want to focus on remakes and sequels. The Materialists actress suggested people making decisions in the industry "don't know anything" about movies and just want to capitalise on the success of one project, rather than taking a risk and offering audiences "fresh" new stories. Appearing on YouTube series Hot Ones, host Sean Evans asked her why she feels 'Hollywood is so risk-averse,' as someone who has seen the industry 'up close and personal.' She said: 'I think it's hard when creative decisions are made by committee and it's hard when creative decisions are made by people who don't even really watch movies or know anything about them, and that tends to be what's occurring a lot. "When something does well, studios want to keep that going so they remake the same things, but humans don't want that. They want fresh, they want to feel new things, experience new things, see new things, so I don't know, I guess it's all just a bit of a mess right now, isn't it?' Dakota recently insisted her film Madam Web's poor performance wasn't her fault because the film - in which she played Cassie Web, a paramedic who develops psychic abilities following an accident - had "turned into something else" after she signed up for the project. She told the Los Angeles Times newspaper: 'It wasn't my fault. There's this thing that happens now where a lot of creative decisions are made by committee. Or made by people who don't have a creative bone in their body. And it's really hard to make art that way. Or to make something entertaining that way. 'And I think unfortunately with Madame Web, it started out as something and turned into something else. And I was just sort of along for the ride at that point. But that happens. Bigger-budget movies fail all the time.' Dakota insisted she doesn't "have a Band-Aid over it" and isn't too worried about the experience. She said: 'There's no part of me that's like, 'Oh, I'll never do that again' to anything. I've done even tiny movies that didn't do well. Who cares?' Dakota previously suggested she wouldn't make another superhero film following her experience on Madame Web. She told Bustle: 'I had never done anything like it before. I probably will never do anything like it again because I don't make sense in that world. And I know that now. 'Sometimes in this industry, you sign on to something, and it's one thing and then as you're making it, it becomes a completely different thing, and you're like, 'Wait, what?' "But it was a real learning experience, and of course it's not nice to be a part of something that's ripped to shreds, but I can't say that I don't understand.'

Golfers bring golf to new audiences through online content creation
The game of golf is rapidly growing in popularity among the next generation. One of the reasons behind that surge is YouTube. Golfers are using the social media platform to give fans access like never before. Advertisement YouTube helped 2024 U.S. Open Champion Bryson DeChambeau redefine his image by taking fans behind the scenes and showing them his day-to-day life. He now has more than 2 million followers and, earlier this week, we learned he is sharing some content creation tips with none other than Phil Mickelson. 'It's been great getting to help him a little bit. It's so funny because he's taught me a bunch in short game, so we kind of exchange ideas in that, in that role, he teaches me a couple things out of the bunker wedges. And I'll be like, All right, you know, here's something we do for our channel that makes it a little more interesting,' said DeChambeau. Golfers and creators George and Wesley Bryan, known as The Bryan Bros, have more than half a million subscribers on YouTube. Ahead of the 125th U.S. Open, they took the course at Oakmont. 'We play golf, film it and put it on the internet,' said George Bryan. Advertisement It may sound simple. but the brothers and Grant Horvat are bringing the sport to an audience in a way it's never been delivered before. 'We travel around the major championship courses, play for two rounds and see if we make the cut at the previous major that was there,' said George Bryan. 'It's a way to combine professional golf and YouTube golfing for people to see, like, how do we stack up these pros, but also highlight amazing venues like this?' They want to take golf fans of all ages inside moments they have never experienced before. 'To feel and see a test that the pros are going to play it. You know, feel lost, feel confused, feel like you want to give up the game. It's like that's all the emotions you feel in a US Open,' said George Bryan. Advertisement Their goal in all of this stems from their dad introducing them to golf at a young age. The impact they're making on the youth is one that's surprising even to themselves. The brothers say their journey has been both difficult and as beautiful as advertised. Download the FREE WPXI News app for breaking news alerts.

Is Addison Rae's Debut Album Actually "Skipless"?
If you haven't heard, Addison Rae's rebranded from doing TikTok dances to making pop hits. The transition from social star, to actress, to singer has been met with a mix of public opinion, but Addison has taken it in stride, explaining how she's handled the criticism in a number of recent interviews. In a YouTube video with internet personality, Quenlin Blackwell, Addison responded to comments she was "trying too hard" saying, "How about you try at all? We can tell you're not". Following the launch of her new career via EP in 2023, she released her first album, self-titled Addison, on June 6, 2025. The 12-track collection is already being praised for its production by an all-female team and labelled by fans as a "skipless" debut. Is the "no skips" sentiment a universal experience, or are the fans just stitching us up? I'm going to find out for the both of us by listening to Addison from start to finish. One listen per song. "New York" My First Impression: If the Secret Life Of Pets wasn't a children's movie they would DEFINITELY add this to the soundtrack. This is a strong start and felt like it needed a strobe light attached to it. If you could bottle the feeling of whipping your hair around to a song on dance floor where you can't hear yourself think, "New York" is pretty close. What kind of movie scene would this song be the soundtrack to: Definitely a club scene montage where a group of friends is rediscovering their youth — having fun, running amuck and giggling a lot. Think Gossip I want to skip the song at any point in time: No. "Diet Pepsi" My First Impression: Technically, I've heard this one already — not in its entirety — but it's different hearing it in this context. The chorus has always been really catchy and so is the backbeat. Each hit on the closed hi-hats scratch an itch in my brain that I can't explain. I know the song is meant have quite a sexy vibe, but it also gives off the air of sadness and a feeling of growing up too fast, knowing you can't go back. What kind of movie scene would this song be the soundtrack to: I'm imagining Hannah Montana standing up in the back of a ute/pickup truck driving through Tennessee, saying, "This is what life's all about". Did I want to skip the song at any point in time: Yes (but only because I didn't know there was a key change). "Money Is Everything" My First Impression: The intro instrumental feels very Disney princess, but after the starting monologue you can feel a punk touch. I really like the choral element on the repeated "money is everything" lyric — it has the same energy as "Hollaback Girl" by Gwen Stefani. What kind of movie scene would this song be the soundtrack to: A group of powerful woman are power strutting, about to take over the world and wreck someone's day. Did I want to skip the song at any point in time: No (but also, why are the songs so short?). "Aquamarine" My First Impression: I burst out laughing thinking I was listening to "Fireflies" by Owl City because of the opening electronic notes. The song feels super hypnotic, like someone is sitting in front of you with a crystal ball and reading your fortune while chaotic things are flying around. At this point in the album, you can feel it's very consistent in its sound and storytelling. Although, this does feel like it has an '80s disco atmosphere. What kind of movie scene would this song be the soundtrack to: A witch is casting a spell into the sky and making a storm. Did I want to skip the song at any point in time: Yes (I thought it was "Fireflies" sorry). "Lost & Found" My First Impression: This is a 48 second interlude that feels very airy and dreamy. It feels like a higher power trying to wake someone up from a crash out. You can feel the album start to shift from high energy to more melancholy. What kind of movie scene would this song be the soundtrack to: A royal walking through a castle, contemplating whether to keep a life of riches or pursue a life of freedom amongst the grain. Did I want to skip the song at any point in time: No. "High Fashion" My First Impression: Addison sounds sad here. This feels like the most literal description of wanting clothes and to go shopping that I've heard in a song. No drugs!!!! Give her shoes!!!! It almost feels a bit satirical, but I know it probably isn't. What kind of movie scene would this song be the soundtrack to: Andrea in The Devil Wears Prada is staring out the window of a black town car in Paris. There's rain pouring outside and she's noticing shoes and purses outside, something she wouldn't have done before. She realises she's changed. Did I want to skip the song at any point in time: No (but it does confuse me a little bit, I think I need to listen to it again). "Summer Forever" My First Impression: This song is like missing a moment while you're still in it. To me, it almost feels like a Lana Del Rey/Taylor Swift love child with airy-ness of the instrumental and the lyrical pattern. While I understand the vibe she's trying to achieve, I kind of wish the beat on this one was more like Addison's earlier tracks because why does it make me want to cry while the sun's out? What kind of movie scene would this song be the soundtrack to: A summer break up before moving away, but both of them know that they don't want to let it go. Did I want to skip the song at any point in time: No. "In The Rain" My First Impression: Okay, the speed is back, we're moving into hair-whipping, strut-your-stuff territory. Just kidding, it's STILL SAD!!!!! It feels like it teeters on the edge of a hip-hop/R&B song and I really enjoy it. Of course, Addison's voice brings it back to pop and I think lyrically this is one of strongest of the album so kind of movie scene would this song be the soundtrack to: A solo hip-hop contemporary dance in the rain (duh). Think Step Up 2: The Streets. Did I want to skip the song at any point in time: No. "Fame Is A Gun" My First Impression: I think this song embodies her story perfectly and I absolutely love the energy of it. It feels like old-school pop with her distinct flavour and I can see this being really timeless, especially with the catchy hook. It really gets your shoulders moving at your desk, I won't lie. What kind of movie scene would this song be the soundtrack to: After an artist plays a stage show they launch into a fever dream where this is playing, there's a lot of sparkly tinsel. Did I want to skip the song at any point in time: No. "Times Like These" My First Impression: Does anyone remember that scene in Camp Rock, where Tess was surrounded by a bunch of mirrors? This would've been the perfect song for that moment. Breathy vocals are making their return here. It almost feels like this is the end of the album, even though theres two more songs. What kind of movie scene would this song be the soundtrack to: The main character is driving in an old school red convertible, moving from one place to another across a long stretch of highway. Did I want to skip the song at any point in time: Yes (I think, I just wanted to get back to more of "Fame Is A Gun"). "Life's No Fun Through Clear Waters" My First Impression: The last interlude of the album and you can't hear Addison through it, it feels like a break setting up for the grand finale. Not too much to kind of movie scene would this song be the soundtrack to: Think Leonardo DiCaprio and Claire Danes' Romeo + Juliet when they're staring at each other through the aquarium. Did I want to skip the song at any point in time: No, this is a nice palate cleanser. And finally, "Headphones On" My First Impression: This is "Diet Pepsi"'s chiller sibling that still has that sensual vibe, but instead of feel sad, it feels quite hopeful. It cleanly rounds off the entire album, further emphasising the consistency element. While it is the last song, it feels like it leaves the future open for where her sound could go kind of movie scene would this song be the soundtrack to: This is for the montage in a coming-of-age movie when the protagonist finds out they were just "a bet" or everything wasn't real with the person they fell in love with. It's for the part where they fix their life. Did I want to skip the song at any point in time: No. Listen to Addison by Addison Rae, wherever you get your music.
