Comedy Central’s roast of Justin Bieber drew strong numbers Monday, ranking as the net’s third most popular ever and standing as the night’s No. 1-rated program in key male demos.
The roast, taped March 14 and featuring Kevin Hart as roast master, averaged a 2.6 rating/9 share in adults 18-49 and 4.4 million viewers overall from 10 p.m. to midnight, according to Nielsen. The tune-in far exceeded the roasts in recent years of Donald Trump in March 2011 (3.48 million), James Franco in September 2013 (3.11 million) and Roseanne Barr in August 2012 (2.64 million).
As might be expected, the “Roast of Justin Bieber” was also a big draw on social media, ranking No. 1 among all shows on television Monday with over 1.3 million mentions and more than 40 roast-related trending topics worldwide. Nearly 2 million people generated over 3 million posts, comments, likes and shares regarding the Roast of Justin Bieber, aka #BieberRoast, on Facebook.
That's not true. Matthew is not a great actor imo, he's just gotten good at picking better roles. He could never pull off something like Bale did in American Psycho
Besides Bale has overall a better filmography or at least more remembered roles.
Michelle MacLaren has dropped out of directing Wonder Woman due to creative differences.
“Given creative differences, Warner Bros. and Michelle MacLaren have decided not to move forward with plans to develop and direct Wonder Woman together,” said the studio in a statement.
Is it unclear if it will affect the release schedule. The movie has a 2017 berth slotted.
