Meghan Markle, the Duchess of Sussex, finds herself facing yet another setback in her quest to establish herself in Hollywood.
It has been reported that Meghan had a major disagreement with Ari Emanuel, the head of talent agency WME, regarding the rejection of a potential deal with Cheeto’s.
This unfortunate turn of events comes after Meghan signed with WME back in April, raising expectations for her future plans in the entertainment industry.
The rejection from Dior as an ambassador and now the loss of the Cheeto’s deal have left Meghan searching for her place in Hollywood.
Many believed that Meghan, with her love for the color orange, would have been the perfect fit as the face or, in this case, the fingertips of Cheeto’s.
Unfortunately, it seems that fate had other plans.
Cheeto’s recently launched a groundbreaking campaign called Deja2Huella, which celebrates the return of the brand’s iconic orange-tinted fingers.
As part of this campaign, global superstar Becky G was chosen as the sponsor for Cheeto’s fingertips.
Becky G, a long-time advocate for the Hispanic community, will support and celebrate the next generation of Hispanic students through scholarships provided by the PepsiCo Foundation.
Additionally, she will embark on a community college tour and initiate a nationwide TikTok challenge.
In a TV commercial released today, Cheeto’s showcases how Becky G’s Cheeto-covered fingertips can inspire and empower members of the Hispanic community to pursue their dreams.
This collaboration would have been a perfect opportunity for Meghan to empower minority communities and proudly display her love for the color orange through her fingertips.
As news of Meghan’s lost opportunity spread, royal fans couldn’t resist poking fun at her misfortune.
One Reddit user humorously suggested a partnership between Meghan, a friend named Victoria Jackson who owns a makeup brand, and Cheeto’s to create a product line of summer bronzers and glowing orange hues for women of all colors.
Others playfully imagined Meghan manifesting Cheeto’s sponsoring her fingertips, showcasing her multitasking abilities and humorously suggesting the endless possibilities of her orangeness.
While some fans lamented the missed opportunity for Meghan, others praised Becky G’s charm and genuine personality.
They contrasted this with Meghan’s attempts at self-deprecating humor during her appearance on The Ellen DeGeneres Show, which were perceived as awkward and forced.
Meghan’s supporters argue that she should have been the perfect fit for the campaign, given her fluency in Spanish and her worldwide appeal.
However, Meghan’s public relations team insists that she remains a significant asset to WME, an agency that represents renowned figures such as Adele and Serena Williams.
Critics, on the other hand, question Meghan’s talent and claim that her association with the royal family is her sole claim to fame.
This ongoing tension between Meghan and her agency has reportedly led to frequent arguments with Ari Emanuel over the lack of bookings, culminating in the recent disappointment of the Cheeto’s snub.
As Meghan’s Hollywood journey continues, rumors swirl about the state of her relationship with WME.
Some speculate that the disagreements and missed opportunities may strain their partnership further.
Only time will tell if Meghan can overcome these hurdles and carve out a successful career in the entertainment industry.
For now, she faces the challenge of finding her place in Hollywood and proving her worth beyond her royal connections.
