Another nudity report from Cannes – The Idol

“‘The Idol’ Scandalizes Cannes With Five-Minute Standing Ovation for Lily-Rose Depp’s Masturbating Pop Star, Explicit Nudity and the Weeknd’s TV Acting Debut

Revenge porn photos of bodily fluids on Depp’s face, masturbation with ice cubes, nightclub-owning scam artists and vile Hollywood sycophants populated the first two episodes of the already-controversial series.”

You’ve probably heard of some of the controversy. The show was about 80% complete about a year ago, aiming for an October debut, when they axed the director and basically started over again.

Rolling Stone reported:

“In interviews with 13 members of the show’s cast and crew, Rolling Stone has learned the drastic delay was caused by Levinson taking over as director and scrapping the nearly-finished $54-75 million project to rewrite and reshoot the entire thing.

With Seimetz out of the picture, HBO handed the reins to Levinson, only to have him weaken the show’s overarching message, many sources say, by dialing up the disturbing sexual content and nudity to match — and even surpass — that of his most successful show, Euphoria.

It went from satire to the thing it was satirizing.”

As the good lord intended!

  1. One reviewer said they were tired of seeing Depp naked.

    From the first two episodes.

    So let’s just plan on making nude scene of the year second place to Depp, because I think that’s in the bag at this point. There are even suggestions a bunch of this will be unsimulated for what could be the most explicit celebrity scenes in the history of celeb nudity.
