Netflix deal, looking like it may be over for H&M

[Thedom]

The rumours have been doing the rounds for a while, but Puck News now reporting it, which means it is very likely that their contract with Netflix will not be renewed.

"The streamer is not expected to renew its five-year, $100 million deal signed in 2020 with Prince Harry and Meghan Markle. Meghan’s passion project, the animated kids show Pearl, has already been canceled, and the unscripted cooking and polo offerings didn’t connect the way the royal couple’s Harry & Meghan did. "

I just did @Serenster and DH asked if I have toothache ! 😂

It’s a great gold dress though.

I saw a video of a group of women, who looked to be dressed for a wedding, with Meghan standing slightly apart from the group. Meghan was talking, laughing and nodding as if she was deep in a very amusing and interesting conversation. The camera panned out and there was nobody in front of her, she was completely on her own. The photos would've looked great, but it must look really odd to see that happen. I would guess these are tricks that her dad taught her, and probably fairly common place in Hollywood.

😂

These comments 🤣 some of you people need therapy!

Last resort, is it? Ridicule rather than engage….

She does look lovely with her hand cupping her face though.

I'm going to try it today.

She's quite the posing expert, really.

Oh dear it was one of those tennis match moments. Robot malfunction.

Pregnancy was just another way of getting attention for her.

It’s very touching how concerned some people are for my mental well being 🙄😂😂

The face cupping thing..I always assumed it was because she has that messy updo a lot of the time so is tucking her hair behind her ear but you’ve got me thinking now…

No, it's actually a pose which is quite flattering for photographs.

Like tilting your head to one side? I know someone who does that in every photo

It’s a way to try to force a close up crop of your face. Any mid crop looks off because of the arm pointing down. A close up crop looks nicely framed with the wrist and hand curving to the side of the face.

It’s a good trick to use if you want the photo to just focus on you and not anyone else around you.

To give the photographers plenty of time to get a good shot though you need to leave the hand there for several steps - so if you do it too often it looks odd in videos because the second you get out of the car you are always raising your hand to your head.

So it works well for celebs trying to hustle their way into the papers competing against all the other celebs because the still images are going to be used but the video less likely to be reused and watched.

Similar with the bump cradling and flicking the long coat back to show the bump silhouette. Looks great in the odd still image - looks bizarre in multiple videos.

Now I've seen Meghan voguing I can't unsee it. I will see it everywhere. Forever.

What’s your take on the coat flicking?

Did you see her at the last Invictus games (Germany?). She was behaving very strangely in the audience at one time.

This isn't really related to the theme of the thread, but the last few posts put me in mind of this

Do you mean leading the veterans' march wearing flappy shorts and sliders?!

No that was a different occasion 😁 She was in the audience and she was talking to no one and clapping like a seal (as usual) and maybe singing and just being a bit weird. It was highlighted on a YouTube channel, it was like she was giving herself a pep talk or something to act normal.

I didn't see that! Sounds odd.

It was, to me (and the YouTuber). I can’t really remember much about it, but it was ‘normal’ for her.

Harry was right, it seems everyone is judging her because she is an actress.

I think whoever Harry had married, people would be commenting

And that is possibly why earlier relationships failed - once they realised just how intrusive the interest would be. That Meghan was an actress was acclaimed in the early days (the assumption that she was well prepared)
