Chappell Roan leaves Casey Wasserman’s agency over mogul’s Ghislaine Maxwell ties

Grammy-winning singer Chappell Roan said Monday she is parting ways with entertainment mogul Casey Wasserman’s talent agency amid growing scrutiny on his ties to convicted sex trafficker Ghislaine Maxwell. The correspondence was published by the Justice Department late last month as part of a cache of new files related to convicted sex offender Jeffrey Epstein, Maxwell’s ex-boyfriend. Maxwell was found guilty in 2021 on federal sex trafficking charges, including conspiracy to entice minors to travel to engage in illegal sex acts, participation in a sex trafficking conspiracy and sex trafficking of a minor. Epstein, a wealthy and socially connected financier, died in a New York jail in 2019 while awaiting trial on federal sex trafficking charges. The convicted sex offender’s death was ruled a suicide. 🖊️️🤖

Punk Bands Are Bailing on ‘Punk in the Park’ Over Founder’s Trump Donations ~ L.A. TACO

This year’s Punk In the Park California event overlaps with the usual Punk Rock Bowling dates in Las Vegas. “It was a no-brainer to cancel our festival this year,” Stern L.A. TACO. “The punk rock community, for me, has always been the ones on the forefront pushing for change and resisting fascism, and I’d like to see that continue,” Stern says of the politics of punk rock in 2026. “I think anyone who supports this administration and tries to claim that they’re punk rock is absurd, ridiculous, and should not be supported,” he continues. “Qué chingue su madre el Trump y la puta migra,” he tells L.A. TACO. 🖊️️🤖
