In an intriguing turn of events, Lady T has made a bold claim about the representation of celebrities by the talent agency WME.
According to her, WME represents or has some sort of connection with all the celebrities who attended Kevin Costner’s recent event.
Lady T believes that Kevin Costner, the host of the event, reluctantly allowed Prince Harry and Meghan Markle to be special guests.
It is alleged that he made sure to keep his distance from Meghan, as he reportedly does not hold a favorable opinion of her.
During the event, Costner made a comment that some interpreted as a subtle jab at the couple.
He mentioned how friends with no manners asked about the cost of the property, which some believe was a reference to Harry and Meghan.
Lady T claims that Meghan lacks manners and often says inappropriate and inaccurate things, passing them off as her own subjective truths.
It is said that Costner tried to avoid engaging with the couple throughout the event, although this may never be officially confirmed.
Pictures from the event seem to support this theory, as Costner can be seen deliberately keeping his distance from them.
An insider recently shed some light on the situation, revealing some interesting details.
Speaking to X, a netizen shared their conversation with a long-time college friend who happens to be an agent at WME.
Over a few cocktails, the netizen inquired about WME’s signing and representation of Meghan Markle.
The friend rolled their eyes and described it as a complete “shitshow.”
Apparently, it was Serena Williams, who is represented by Jules Smoller, a powerful figure within WME, who played a significant role in getting WME involved with Meghan.
Serena influenced WME to step in and offer assistance to Meghan, leaving the agency with little choice in the matter.
The friend revealed that there was only one instance when Meghan came to LA for a strategy meeting.
Additionally, a memo was circulated among all agents, encouraging them to form partnerships, friendships, and alliances with their clients.
However, agents are reluctant to comply.
They refer to Meghan as “kryptonite,” as no clients want anything to do with her, and agents are hesitant to promote her to their clients.
If Meghan is seen at an event, such as a concert or a Costner event, it is because WME, its executives, clients, or subsidiary companies were already involved, insisting on her inclusion.
Organizers are said to be forced to accommodate her presence, despite their reluctance.
Meghan lacks individual credibility and relies on others to secure her invitations.
Meghan aspires to be a virtuous global ambassador and a power player in Hollywood, but she lacks the necessary credentials and track record.
Similarly, she desires a seat at the table for national politics but struggles to gain the support of Democratic power brokers.
Agents within WME view her as a joke and are frustrated by the obligation to pretend to make an effort to promote her.
It seems that they are currently appeasing Serena Williams and Jill, but they hope that it will soon become evident to Serena that Meghan’s influence is limited.
According to the friend, if nothing substantial happens by next spring, the arrangement between Meghan and WME may be dissolved.
It appears that WME has been “Markled.”
Interestingly, according to a Hollywood reporter, Ari Emanuel, the head of Endeavor, and a few associates have taken advantage of this situation to reach out to important CAA agents, arguing that their agency offers greener pastures.
However, the persuasiveness of their argument remains uncertain.
Endeavor stock has not fared well, and an insider from the company notes that unlike their counterparts at CAA, insiders at Endeavor can sell their shares as soon as they vest, as the company is publicly held.
