One of the most bitter SAG-AFTRA elections in memory concludes Wednesday following strident campaigns by president Gabrielle Carteris and Matthew Modine.
Both have accused the other of multiple violations in the battle for the top slot at the performers union, which has 160,000 members. The fracas has been so heated that turnout may rise above the usual 20% to 30%. Results could be announced by Wednesday afternoon.
Carteris, best known as for her portrayal of the brainy Andrea Zuckerman on “Beverly Hills 90210,” and her allies in the Unite For Strength and United Screen Actors Nationwide have been in control of SAG-aftra for a decade. Modine, whose credits include “Full Metal Jacket” and “Stranger Things,” has mounted an aggressive challenge through the Membership First slate.

The SAG-AFTRA presidential election has heated up with a pointed attack by six women on president Gabrielle Carteris and her handling of the guild’s response to the growing awareness of sexual harassment in the industry.
Allies of Matthew Modine, who has mounted an active challenge to Carteris, issued a detailed recap of her actions since the Harvey Weinstein scandal broke in October, 2017. Rosanna Arquette, Jessica Barth, Caitlin Dulany, Pamela Guest, Sarah Ann Masse, and Sarah Scott each assailed Carteris in a campaign message released Wednesday by Modine’s Membership First faction.
Carteris responded by accusing Membership First of ignoring the progress that has been made: “The timing of these complaints, made as our election ballots have just been mailed, is no coincidence. It’s deeply disturbing that the work our union has done — from individual members to our elected leadership — is being disregarded in Membership First’s...

A SAG-AFTRA disciplinary committee has found actor Kip Pardue guilty of “serious misconduct” in relation to a sexual harassment complaint filed by actress Sarah Scott, who’d accused him of masturbating in front of her shortly after filming a scene together on the indie TV project Mogulettes. She also claimed that he became aroused and placed her hand on his crotch as they lay under the covers while waiting to film the scene.
In its notice of decision, first reported by the Los Angeles Times, the committee told Pardue that it “censures and admonishes you for this inappropriate and unprofessional conduct.” It also fined him $6,000. Pardue denied the allegations. His attorney, Shepard Kopp, told the Times that Pardue “never engaged in any nonconsensual behavior.”
The union, which declined comment, held the disciplinary hearing on March 20. Scott reported the incident to the union in May 2018, just days after the alleged assault.

‘Soaked in Bleach’ Trailer: The Kurt Cobain Death Conspiracy Docudrama Starring That Guy From ‘Lost’
We’ve already had one great documentary spinning theories about Kurt Cobain‘s death (Nick Broomfield’s Kurt & Courtney) and one great dramatization of the last days of the Nirvana frontman (Gus Van Sant’s Last Days), but now there’s a (possibly great?) movie coming out that combines both approaches. Today is the 20th anniversary of when Cobain’s body was found dead, so of course the first trailer for this new docudrama has just arrived online. Titled Soaked in Bleach, it combines interviews with people associated with the case, including private detective Tom Grant, with reenactments featuring actors such as Lost‘s Daniel Roebuck as private detective Tom Grant. Others in the drama side’s cast play Cobain (Tyler Brian), Courtney Love (Sarah Scott), Hole guitarist Eric Erlandson (Kale Clauson), Guns N’ Roses bassist Duff McKagan (Tor Brown), Butthole Surfers singer Gibby Haynes (David Daskal), Earth front man Dylan Carlson (August Emerson) and a character...

Not a big surprise, but it appears that Lindsay Lohan’s career is going to take a hit on account of all that time she’s spending in jail and rehab. The producers of the much-buzzed-about Linda Lovelace biopic Inferno, which was supposed to mark LiLo’s acting comeback, might be giving her the boot.

Unwilling to wait for her to finish her jail and rehab stints, it looks as if Lindsay Lohan is close to being replaced as porn star Linda Lovelace in the movie "Inferno".
According to a Gossip Center insider, "Pimp My Ride" actress Sarah Scott is the leading candidate for the gig after successful guest stints on both "True Blood" and "Nip/Tuck".
The 26-year-old Nebraska native happened to be spotted out in Los Angeles on Thursday (July 29) while leaving an audition with script in hand.
And while it would be quite the score career-wise for Moss Scott, she opted to remain mum as paparazzi asked whether the meeting was related to "Inferno".
