STS Ch-39
I stood outside my childhood home, taking it all in. I’d never spent this long away from it since the day I was born in this body, and the distance made everything feel strange and unfamiliar. If I hadn’t met Dad at my new place when I did, I probably would’ve hesitated to come here on a Sunday, knowing he’d be at home. But I couldn’t push this visit any further, not with post-production on Friday the 13th starting soon. Leaving my hesitation on the porch, I pressed the doorbell once before…- 231.0 K • Ongoing

“It’s so cool to see you two together, doing a movie!” the woman in front of me gushed excitedly. “Don’t tell this to anyone, but you two are my favorite celebrity couple of all time.” I laughed and pointed at the camera placed behind her. “Thank you, but I think you just told everyone yourself.” She turned back to the camera and said, “Sorry, Brangelina, you two came second by just a single point. The competition was neck and neck.” Scarlett laughed at that and added,…- 1.0 M • Ongoing

“Cut!” The cameras stopped rolling almost immediately, and we both let out sighs of relief. “Don’t tell me you want to cast me in ?” Emily asked as soon as the mics were removed from us. “Fuck no,” I stated bluntly. “I won’t cast any of my friends in that film unless they beg me to, because I know it’s gonna make a lot of money, but it’ll sexualize you for years to come.” “Since when did you start caring about sexualizing actors? And if it was such a concern, why…- 1.0 M • Ongoing

Reed Hastings looked over at the young billionaire in front of him. The guy appeared quite normal, aside from the fact that most people on the planet knew who he was. Troy Armitage was considered the biggest superstar of the current generation, and the richest as well. So for him to be interested in their company was a little unprecedented. “What’s the matter, Reed?” Troy broke his silence. “I think we can all agree that the valuation of $2.5 billion that I’m offering is quite generous for…- 1.0 M • Ongoing

“Holy shit! That was the best film I’ve ever seen!” Daisy shouted the second the screen faded to black. “Language!” Mom scolded, shooting Daisy a sharp look. “We talked about this, Daisy. You need to control how you express yourself better. You’re not a kid anymore.” Daisy rolled her eyes and gave Mom a defiant stare before turning to me, throwing her hands up in frustration. “See what I have to deal with? On top of schoolwork, Zach’s nonsense, and now Mom too. You and Zach say…- 231.0 K • Ongoing

Gene Siskel didn’t have high expectations when he received an invitation to the premiere of . The reason was simple: had been such a big hit two years ago that copies were bound to follow. This happens with every film that becomes a major success, whether it’s comedy, romance, tragedy, sci-fi, or even horror. Slasher horror, especially, makes copying easier because it can be made cheaply and quickly. If is a hit, more copies and inspirations of the movie will permeate Hollywood. “What do you…- 231.0 K • Ongoing

~My first love broke my heart for the first time, and I was like Baby, baby, baby, oh Like baby, baby, baby, no Like baby, baby, baby, oh Thought you'd always be mine, mine~ I watched Zoe Kravitz sing with slightly judgmental eyes and raised eyebrows. "Really?" I asked. "You have to sing that one out of all the songs in the world?" Justin Bieber had made his debut with "Baby" only recently, and the song had exploded worldwide. It was one of the biggest debuts any young pop star had…- 1.0 M • Ongoing

February 2008, Staples Center, Los Angeles, CA, USA “Why did we leave the red carpet early?” Scarlett asked in a low whisper as we were guided to our seats. The auditorium was already half full, buzzing with murmured conversations and the low hum of anticipation. Most of the non-red carpet guests had already arrived. My family had stayed behind this time for security reasons. “It’s just security being security,” I replied, keeping my tone casual. “They initially told me not to stop for…- 1.0 M • Ongoing

May 2009, New York City, USA “Ladies and gentlemen, Troy Armitage!” I walked out through the studio doors with a bright smile on my face. The in-house band sat to my left, just by the edge of the stage. Beyond them was the sea of faces that made up my audience for the night. The moment my name was announced, the crowd erupted into thunderous applause that echoed across the studio. I waved as I stepped to the center of the stage. “Thank you,” I said, though my voice was almost lost beneath…- 1.0 M • Ongoing

“Maintain your note for ten seconds, then give a pause for five then continue with next. Start with C, then C-sharp, D, D-sharp, and so on till you reach F-sharp.” Mr. Tanner instructed. I cleared my throat for good measure and began my practice. Practicing vocals with a coach was so much different from working alone. My previous coach didn’t have much experience with singing herself. She covered the basics of notes and voice pitch well enough but after that, even I with my limited experience…- 1.0 M • Ongoing
