Whoa, talk about drama! 🚨 The entertainment industry's buzzing as big changes ripple through the superstar talent agency, Wasserman Group. After some jaw-dropping emails between founder Casey Wasserman and Ghislaine Maxwell surfaced, big-name artists are saying sayonara, and Wasserman's on his way out to save the company he started 24 years ago.
So, what's got everyone talking? Emails unearthed from around the early 2000s show Wasserman and Maxwell exchanging some pretty eyebrow-raising messages. Think: leather outfits and spicy massages! Yep, you read that right. Even though Casey’s claiming his time with Epstein and Maxwell was all business back in the day, these emails are putting the heat on him big time.
In a no-holds-barred memo to his staff, Wasserman confessed he messed up and said he was sorry for all the discomfort his 'past personal mistakes' caused. He knows the company’s folks are the bomb and deserve the best while working with artists they love. Wasserman admits it’s time to sell the company and step aside, which means COO Mike Watts is stepping up to keep things cool in the meantime.
With artistic powerhouses like Chappell Roan, Bethany Cosentino of Best Coast, Orville Peck, and Beach Bunny ditching Wasserman Group, it’s clear that this news has shaken things up. Roan didn't hold back, telling fans that protecting her team and keeping standards high are top priorities!
For his part, Wasserman's still committed to his role with the LA28 Olympics. He’s promising LA some epic games in 2028, even while the agency drama unfolds. No doubt, everyone's on the edge of their seats to see what happens next with Wasserman Group!
