In the ever-evolving tapestry of Hollywood, where narratives are woven, and dreams take shape, Gigi Dia has emerged as a remarkable artist whose brilliance transcends traditional boundaries. A French actress who has shattered glass ceilings and challenged norms, Gigi’s journey is one of resilience, talent, and an unyielding commitment to authenticity.

Gigi Dia’s impact on the entertainment industry is not confined to her remarkable performances alone. Gigi is using her platform to redefine standards of representation. In her association with Lady Gaga’s cosmetic brand campaign, Haus Labs, Gigi proudly represented the deepest shade of foundation in the campaign, signifying a crucial step towards more inclusive beauty standards. Collaborating with Lady Gaga, she became a symbol of empowerment, showcasing that beauty comes in every shade.

This connection with Haus Labs further solidified her position as a harbinger of change when she was set to star in the brand’s upcoming concealer ad. Gigi’s involvement goes beyond modeling; it’s about being a voice that resonates with those who have been underrepresented for far too long.

Gigi’s journey through the world of entertainment has been marked by a diverse range of roles. Her presence on HBO’s “Insecure” was a standout moment, where she can be seeing alongside three times Golden Globe nominee Issa Rae. Her performance was a masterclass in authenticity, a trait that defines her craft.

Her silver screen ventures are equally noteworthy. In the Netflix production “The Prom,” she demonstrated her ability to stand shoulder to shoulder with Emy winner Kerry Washington and three times Oscar winner Meryl Streep, leaving an indelible mark. However, Gigi’s talent isn’t confined to the American entertainment scene alone. Her role in the French feature film “L’enfant du Paradis” highlighted her international appeal and her capacity to seamlessly navigate different cultural contexts.

Gigi’s talents extend beyond acting; she is a storyteller in multiple dimensions. Her appearances in commercials for prominent brands like Hennessy, Grande Cosmetics, PayPal, Ally Bank, and Amazon showcase her ability to infuse charisma and authenticity into various forms of media. Stepping into the music world, she graced music videos, adding her unique touch to Counting Crows’ and Kehlani’s artistic narratives.

Her foray into directing with the short film “Our Boat” is a testament to her creative breadth. As producer, director, and lead actress, Gigi crafted a period mystery drama set in 1968 Southern California. The film demonstrates her commitment to narratives that resonate and captivate.

Gigi Dia’s future shines brightly as she continues to impact the entertainment landscape. Her dedication to representation, authenticity, and storytelling excellence positions her as a beacon for both emerging talents and established artists seeking to challenge conventions. With every step, Gigi paves the way for a Hollywood that champions diversity and originality.

Gigi’s journey is a reminder that the world of entertainment is richer when it embraces the vibrant tapestry of human experiences. Through her work in front of the camera, behind the lens, and on various creative platforms, Gigi Dia is rewriting the script of what it means to be a powerful and influential figure in the realm of entertainment. As her star continues to rise, so too does the promise of a more inclusive, dynamic, and meaningful Hollywood.

Harvey Brownstone conducts an in-depth Interview with Chris Lemmon, Son of Legendary Actor, Jack Lemmon, Actor & Author, “A Twist of Lemmon: A Tribute to My Father”.

Chris Lemmon is an actor, producer and author who’s appeared in many movies including “Airport ‘77”, “Seems Like Old Times”, “Uncommon Valor”, “Swing Shift”, “Cannonball Run 2”, “Weekend Warrior”, “Lena’s Holiday”, “Roe vs Wade”, and 2 very special movies, “That’s Life” and “Dad”, in which he appeared with his legendary father, 2-time Academy Award winner Jack Lemmon, who’s been immortalized in movies like “Mr. Roberts”, “Save the Tiger”, “The Apartment”, “Irma LaDouce”, “The Odd Couple”, “The China Syndrome”, “Glengarry Glen Ross”, and of course, the greatest comedy film of all time, “Some Like it Hot”. 

In fact, our guest portrayed his father in a re-enactment of his time on the set of “Some Like it Hot”, in the Marilyn Monroe biopic, “Blonde”. 

On television, our guest has brought us many memorable roles including “Checko” in “Brothers and Sisters”, “Richard Philips” in “Duet” and “Open House”, “Jeff Cameron” in “Knots Landing”, and “Martin Brubaker”, better known as “Bru”, in “Thunder in Paradise”. On the stage, he’s starred in “Barefoot in the Park”, “Shay”, “Love Letters”, and his highly acclaimed one-man show “Twist of Lemmon”, based on his best-selling, highly compelling and heartwarming 2006 memoir entitled, “A Twist of Lemmon: A Tribute to my Father”. 

He also wrote, produced and hosted the wonderful documentary film, “Magic Time”, which is all about the brilliant artistry of Jack Lemmon. 

Harvey Brownstone is a retired judge of the Ontario Court of Justice and was the first openly gay judge in Canada. He is also the bestselling author of “Tug of War: A Judge’s Verdict on Separation, Custody Battles and the Bitter Realities of Family Court” and hosted “Family Matters with Justice Harvey Brownstone,” a television talk show on matters involving the family justice system.

​After a distinguished legal career, Harvey was appointed a judge at the age of 38 in 1995.  He has presided in family and criminal courts.   He has been a trailblazer in several ways.  He was the first openly gay judge in Canada.  He was the first sitting judge in the world to write a national best seller and to host a TV talk show.  

​Harvey has been a role model and icon in the LGBTQ community.  When same-sex marriage was legalized in Canada in 2003, he was the only judge to make himself publicly available to officiate at weddings for lesbian and gay couples travelling to Toronto from all over the world to get married.  In 2007, he officiated at the wedding of Edith Windsor and Thea Spyer, the American couple whose marriage triggered the 2013 United States Supreme Court decision overturning the definition of “spouse” in the federal Defense of Marriage Act.  

​In February 2021, Harvey launched his online talk show “Harvey Brownstone Interviews” on his own YouTube channel. He saw this as an interesting hobby.   Within several months, the show attracted hundreds of thousands – and then eventually, millions – of viewers.  Because of the overwhelming success of the show, Harvey decided to retire from the judiciary on December 31, 2021 after having presided as a full-time judge for 26 1/2 years.  Free from the constraints imposed upon judges regarding the expression of opinions and the endorsement of private enterprise, Harvey now happily devotes his full-time attention to hosting “Harvey Brownstone Interviews” as a regular member of the public – albeit one with a rather illustrious and unique career history.
