The Rock isn't pleased with current-day America, and will NOT be endorsing Joe Biden ... as the President vies for a second term in The White House.

Remember, Johnson, with influence over hundreds of millions of fans, threw his support behind Biden ahead of the 2020 election ... a big get at the time for the presidential hopeful.

Biden, who is struggling with approval ratings in the gutter (56% of Americans disapprove of POTUS' job performance) and poor polling numbers, could certainly use the help ... but it ain't coming. At least, not from the WWE legend.

Molly Ringwald tuvo una noche inolvidable... porque dice que su hija fue concebida en el famoso Studio 54, aunque mucho después de su apogeo.

Hay una nueva película de Bigfoot que se estrenará... de hecho es una comedia indie, y una de las estrellas dice que él y sus compañeros de reparto tuvieron que aprender a ser el eslabón perdido en cámara.

Hablamos con Christophe Zajac-Denek el miércoles en el aeropuerto de Los Ángeles y le preguntamos todo acerca de esta nueva película en la que participa llamada "Sasquatch Sunset".

Christophe explica cómo fue el proceso de inmersión como Bigfoots, incluyendo lo que él llama un "campamento de entrenamiento sasquatch", donde aprendieron vocalizaciones, técnicas de caminar y un montón de otros comportamientos salvajes que podrían atribuirse a un sasquatch real.

Investigación federal de Diddy Hollywood en una carrera por un documental ... Varios en camino!!!

La saga legal de Diddy en curso se estaría convirtiendo en un proyecto documental, y al parecer con varias empresas, según ha averiguado TMZ.

Múltiples fuentes de la industria con conocimiento directo le dicen a TMZ que los productores de varias compañías de Hollywood y el Reino Unido han estado luchando por armar películas documentales de larga duración que cubran todo el drama de Diddy, desde las demandas civiles hasta las redadas federales.

Nos han dicho que la producción de la mayoría de los documentales comenzó inmediatamente después de los allanamientos en Los Ángeles y Miami, lo cual no es sorprendente, ya que la ejecución de las órdenes de registro por parte de los federales se produjo en directo por televisión, convirtiéndose en un espectáculo nacional y atrayendo la atención de mucha gente por el suceso y sus consecuencias.

Diddy Federal Probe Hollywood in Documentary Race ... Multiple in the Works!!!

The ongoing Diddy legal saga is getting the documentary treatment, and it's gonna happen several times with several companies ... TMZ has learned.

Multiple industry sources with direct knowledge tell TMZ ... producers at various production companies in Hollywood and the UK have been scrambling to put together long-form documentary films covering Diddy's drama -- everything from the civil lawsuits to the federal raids.

We're told the outreach to ramp up production for most of the docs began immediately after the raids in L.A. and Miami -- which isn't surprising, as the feds' execution of search warrants happened on live TV ... making it more of a national spectacle, and prompting folks to pay close attention to all the fallout.

Rebel Wilson My Agents Preferred Me 'Fat' ... Roles Paid Much Better!!!

Rebel Wilson is once again stirring the pot -- this time taking shots at her talent agency, claiming her team preferred her when she was plus size.

The actress gets into the weighty subject in her new memoir, "Rebel Rising" ... which has already sparked controversy over claims against Sacha Baron Cohen and Adele. Now, she's coming for her agents, saying they preferred her when she was heavier ... as that meant banking "hundreds of thousands of dollars in commission for each film where [she] played the fat funny girl."

According to Rebel, this left her feeling trapped since there was "a multimillion-dollar pigeonhole" over her body size. Remember, she already claimed, while on the "Call Her Daddy" podcast, she was contractually obligated not to lose weight while filming the "Pitch Perfect" franchise.
