<p>After The Weeknd slammed&nbsp;Grammys recently, another singer seems to be miffed with The Recording Academy and the world’s biggest music awards.&nbsp;</p>

<p><strong>Zayn Malik spoke against the Grammys</strong> even though he’s not eligible for any nominations, He attacked the nominations process and tweeted: "F— the grammys and everyone associated. Unless you shake hands and send gifts, there's no nomination considerations. Next year I'll send you a basket of confectionary."</p>

<p>It’s unclear what sparked this outrage from Zayn Malik as fans pointed out that he released music this year after the <strong>Grammys 2021 selection</strong> window was way over. He has so far released three solo albums outside of his work with One Direction and been nominated once alongside Taylor Swift for their duet, "’ Don't Wanna Live Forever’. Meanwhile, his latest album, ‘Nobody Is Listening’, was not eligible for Grammys 2021 consideration this award cycle because it was released in January, five months after the eligibility period ended on August 31 and two months after Grammy nominations were announced in November.</p>

<p>Soon after fans raised objection and said his tweet was out of place, Zayn Malik shared another tweet and wrote: "My tweet was not personal or about eligibility but was about the need for inclusion and the lack of transparency of the nomination process and the space that creates and allows favoritism, racism and networking [sic] politics to influence the voting process."</p>

<p>Zayn Malik is among a growing list of music stars who have called out the Grammys. In the past, The Weeknd, Drake and Halsey have criticised The Recording Academy.

I don't know if it was sadness or anger. I think it was just confusion. I just wanted answers." His song ‘Blinding Lights’ became the first to spend a full year in the Top 10 of the Billboard Hot 100. He continued, "We did everything right, I think. I'm not a cocky person. I'm not arrogant. People told me I was going to get nominated. The world told me. Like, 'This is it, this is your year.' We were all very confused."</p>

Elizabeth Banks to direct 'Cocaine Bear' thriller based on a true story

<p>A year after omitting women entirely, Hollywood's directors Tuesday nominated two female filmmakers for their top prize for the first time in the awards' seven-decade history.</p>

<p>'Nomadland'&nbsp;director Chloe Zhao and 'Promising Young Woman' helmer Emerald Fennell become the ninth and tenth women nominated for the Directors Guild of America's outstanding feature film category.</p>

<p>"I congratulate our five nominees whose diverse and extraordinary films embodied that universal power in a year that will never be forgotten," said DGA president Thomas Schlamme in a statement.</p>

<p>Beijing-born Zhao and British director Fennell are joined on the diverse shortlist by Lee Isaac Chung, who drew on his Korean-American immigrant family history for acclaimed drama 'Minari.'</p>

<p>The category is rounded out by David Fincher -- for Hollywood Golden Age reimagining 'Mank'&nbsp;-- and Aaron Sorkin for 1960s courthouse drama 'The Trial of the Chicago 7.'</p>

<p>The DGA Awards are a strong indicator of the Oscars best director prize.</p>

<p>Only one woman -- Kathryn Bigelow -- has won the DGA top honor, and she went on to scoop the only female best director Oscar win in history for 2009's 'The Hurt Locker.'&nbsp;</p>

<p>Last year the major award shows including the DGAs and Oscars shut out all female-helmed films in their director categories, with the absence of Greta Gerwig for her acclaimed 'Little Women'&nbsp;drawing a particular backlash.</p>

<p>The industry has come under increasing scrutiny for its lack of diversity in recent years.</p>

<p>The DGA Tuesday also unveiled five nominees for the first-time feature director prize, including Regina King for "One Night in Miami" and Radha Blank for "The Forty-Year-Old Version."</p>

<p>The DGAs winners will be unveiled at a private virtual event on April 10, some two weeks before the pandemic-delayed Oscars.</p>

Hollywood directors nominate two women for top prize in historic first

<p>Disneyland is aiming to reopen in late April at limited capacity after California eased Covid-19 restrictions, Disney CEO Bob Chapek said Tuesday.</p>

<p>The world's second-most visited theme park has been closed for almost exactly a year, with the mega attraction near Los Angeles unable to reopen last summer even while other Disney resorts did so worldwide.</p>

<p>"Here in California, we're encouraged by the positive trends we're seeing and we're hopeful they'll continue to improve and we'll be able to reopen our Parks to guests with limited capacity by late April," said Chapek.</p>

<p>A precise opening date would be confirmed "in the coming weeks," he added.</p>

<p>The statement during Disney's annual shareholders meeting follows state officials' announcement last week that reopening criteria for theme parks and outdoor stadiums will be relaxed from April 1, as a winter spike in coronavirus cases rapidly recedes.</p>

<p>Theme parks will only be allowed to reopen if their county drops below the state's most-restrictive coronavirus "tier," and then initially at 15 percent capacity and for California residents only.</p>

<p>Chapek cautioned that Disneyland could not reopen on the first day of next month as it would take time to recall more than 10,000 furloughed staff members, and to retrain them in pandemic safety measures.</p>

<p>Disney, along with other operators and local officials, has ramped up pressure on state officials to allow swifter reopenings, after previous guidance meant theme parks would be among the last places to reopen in California.</p>

<p>The company had to scrap a planned July restart for Disneyland last year following a public row with state officials over safety guidelines, and partly blamed California restrictions for 28,000 job losses in September.</p>

<p>Chapek said the reopening would be welcomed by Disney staff and was "also good news for the Anaheim community, which depends on Disneyland for jobs and business generated by visitors."</p>

<p>During the shareholders meeting, Chapek also announced that streaming service Disney+ had passed 100 million subscribers, just 16 months after its much-hyped launch.</p>

<p>The platform's growth has trounced expectations, and has come at a time when Disney's parks, travel and film businesses are hobbled by the pandemic.</p>

<p>"Our direct-to-consumer business is the Company's top priority, and our robust pipeline of content will continue to fuel its growth," said Chapek.</p>

<p>As the first music awards of the world are scheduled to take place in the coming week, hit singer Bruno Mars recently urged the Grammys to let him perform during the much-awaited ceremony that celebrates music.&nbsp;</p>

As the first music awards of the world are scheduled to take place in the coming week, hit singer Bruno Mars recently urged the Grammys to let him perform during the much-awaited ceremony that celebrates music. The singer is petitioning for his band, Silk Sonic, to be considered for the Grammys 2021 performers list and be added to the Grammys lineup. Silk Sonic debuted earlier this month as Bruno Mars and Anderson .Paak teamed up for a collaboration. Their debut single, ‘Leave the Door Open,’ which will appear on the duo's forthcoming collaborative album, premiered Friday. The Recording Academy released the list of musicians who are set to perform at the upcoming awards show. The list includes first-time Grammys nominee BTS and Post Malone and others like Taylor Swift, Billie Eilish, Megan Thee Stallion and John Mayer. Soon after the Grammys lineup was revealed, Bruno Mars wrote to the Grammys in an open letter: “Dear Grammys, If you can see it in your hearts to allow two out of work musicians to perform at your show, we would really appreciate it.” "We just released a song and could really use the promotion right now. We have a lot riding on this record (and the Pelicans game next week, but that's another story)." BTS, Post Malone and other 2021 nominees donate to Grammys auction The ‘24K magic’ singer wrote that they will follow all safety protocols and even joked that they are willing to audition for the spot. He added that the pair "haven't been able to perform for a while" and "just want to sing." #LetSilkSonicThrive @RecordingAcad pic.twitter.com/Ze5nuZQnvi — Bruno Mars (@BrunoMars) March 7, 2021 × He further wrote, "I promise we won't be extra.
