Meghan Markle, Prince Harry slammed as 'lazy,' 'f-king grifters' by Spotify as they face cash crisis

The wigger fucker can just put his whore to work turning tricks.
Meghan Markle and Prince Harry were branded “lazy” and “f–king grifters”
by Spotify employees Friday after the podcasting network canned their $20
million deal.

Bill Simmons, the sportscaster who is also head of Spotify’s international
sports content, said on his own podcast, “’The f–king grifters.’ That’s
the podcast we shoulda launched with them.”

His attack deepened the couple’s crisis as sources said they were “lazy”
compared to the Obamas, who also had a Spotify contract.

The collapse of the deal piles financial pressure on the Sussexes as
exorbitant bills for their Montecito, Calif. lifestyle mount.

Their sprawling Tuscan-style estate, bought for $14.7 million in June
2020, has a hefty mortgage.

Annual property taxes alone cost $144,427 and there is staffing and
maintenance on top.

Markle and her husband’s deal with Spotify could have netted them $20M but
the failure to produce enough material means it is over with them getting
far less.
The bill for the couple’s private security detail is believed to be about
$2 million a year, there are legal fees from Harry’s unending battles with
the British press — and they have to keep their Archewell company afloat
without Spotify’s cash.

“They’re not broke,” stressed a source.

“But they’re going to have to keep spending their money, instead of
banking it.”

The Sussexes’ Spotify deal was signed in 2020 but delivered just 13 hours
of programming in two and half years — 12 episodes of Markle’s
“Archetypes” podcast, and a one-off holiday special.

They will not be paid anything close to the full amount they could have
earned under the deal.

Sources pointedly contrasted the Sussexes’ failed deal with the Obamas’
similar deal, which ended last year.

“Although ‘Archetypes’ did well and got a couple of awards, when you go
into a deal like this, to have just one series over that course of time is
not great,” a source close to the Sussexes’ deal said.

“To put that into context, the Obamas and their production company, Higher
Ground, delivered multiple new series.”

Simmons told how he had been called in to help Harry — unsuccessfully —
saying, “I gotta get drunk one night and tell the story of this Zoom I had
with Harry to try to help him with a podcast idea. It’s one of my best
stories.”

He added, “I wish I had been involved in the ‘Meghan and Harry leave
Spotify’ negotiation. That’s a podcast we should’ve launched with them.”

Another industry insider added, “Spotify wants to focus on people who
drive strong audiences, like Alex Cooper, Dax Shepard and Emma
Chamberlain. There are a lot of great creators who are very eager.

“Meghan and Harry are the outlier on all of this, I think they have come
off as being lazy and difficult.”

In a statement, both Spotify and Archewell said they “mutually agreed to
part ways and are proud of the series we made together.”

Losing Spotify is a dramatic change in fortunes for the pair since they
quit being full-time royals, pleaded for privacy and launched their new
American lives with an explosive Oprah Winfrey interview trashing Harry’s
family in 2021.

But since signing deals with Netflix and Spotify, the couple’s popularity
appears to have plunged and they have been plagued by staff turnover.

Last month, the two were mocked for claiming they were pursued at “high
speed” for hours by “highly aggressive” paparazzi in a “near catastrophic
car chase” through the streets of New York, at one point swapping their
SUV for a cab — whose driver contradicted the account, leading to more
public derision.

The now appear entirely estranged from the royal family.

Saturday will mark the first Trooping the Colour celebration since Queen
Elizabeth’s death and the first of King Charles’ reign — but, as a non-
working royal, Prince Harry is not invited to the military ceremony.

The Sussexes signed an estimated $100 million, five-year deal with Netflix
back in September 2020 and hired former Disney+ exec Chanel Pysnik the
next year.

She served as an executive producer on their Netflix docu-series “Harry
and Meghan,” which was a global hit.

But so far, the only other show the couple has coming out is “Heart of
Invictus,” which was filmed while they were at the Invictus Games, for
wounded service personnel, in The Hague last year.

Page Six has been told it’s still slated to stream in August, a month
before Harry and Markle fly to Germany for this year’s Invictus Games.

It is unclear if this time they will be accompanied by documentary crews.

A Netflix source said they remain “very valued” partners with the company,
and the decision is “business as usual.”

Harry and Meghan are badass. They are a great couple, who are down to
earth people, cool people. I despise all this negative attention on
them, just because they want to escape the bubble of the royal family.

There's the problem, nobody (well at least Americans) cares about them
unless they're spilling the tea about the royals and that's already been
done in Harry's book and a previous series.

They should probably look into getting real jobs producing real goods and/or services
instead of just trading on their celebrity. That way they'll have something to fall back
on when the public grows bored with them.

Guess who owns the Mexican brewery that produces Modello, the new No. 1
American beer.

AB couldn't get US distribution rights to Modello due to anti-trust
regulations, but they still indirectly make money on every can of
Modello sold.

Big international corporations which you normally kowtow to are a bitch

In April 2013, the Department of Justice reached a settlement with AB
InBev and Grupo Modelo. The settlement agreement allowed the sale to
go through if AB InBev sold Modelo’s entire U.S. business to the
company Constellation Brands.

“Before the merger, there were two competitors – Modelo and ABI – and
ABI owned a substantial stake in Modelo,” Bill Baer, former assistant
attorney general for DOJ Antitrust Division, said in a press release
announcing the settlement. “The companies’ proposed merger would have
reduced those two competitors to one – ABI.”

Constellation Brands announced in June 2013 that it had completed its
acquisition of Grupo Modelo’s U.S. beer business from AB InBev for
about $4.8 billion. This means beer brands that were owned by Grupo
Modelo, including Modelo, Corona and Pacifico, are now sold by
Constellation Brands in the U.S.

AB InBev still owns the Modelo brand elsewhere in the world, but not
in the United States. That means sales of Modelo in the U.S. go to
Constellation Brands, not AB InBev.

Anheuser-Busch InBev has wrapped up its merger with Grupo Modelo in a
transaction valued at $20.1 billion.

The combined company expects to produce roughly 400 million hectoliters
(or 40 billion liters) of beer volume annually. A-B InBev officials
said the combination is also expected to generate about $1 billion in
cost synergies.

"We look forward to realizing our opportunities for growth and bringing
our beers to more consumers around the world," Carlos Brito, CEO of
Anheuser-Busch InBev, said in a statement.

Last month, A-B InBev officials said Ricardo Tadeu, currently business
unit president for Brazil, will be zone president for Mexico, which
will become the company's seventh zone, and CEO of Grupo Modelo.

Grupo Modelo's headquarters will remain in Mexico City, and it will
continue to have a local board, which will be appointed by A-B InBev at
the next shareholders meeting.

With the deal complete, A-B InBev announced the settlement of the
all-cash tender offer for the remaining shares of Grupo Modelo that it
did not already own for $9.15 a share. As of May 31, about 89 percent
of Grupo Modelo's outstanding shares have been acquired in the tender
offer by a subsidiary of A-B InBev. As such, the company now owns about
95 percent of Grupo Modelo's outstanding common shares.

St. Louis-based Anheuser-Busch is part of Anheuser-Busch InBev (NYSE:
BUD), which reported a first-quarter profit of $2.53 billion on revenue
of $9.17 billion.

Not so. Modelo still brews their products in Mexico for export. What Constellation
Brands got was US brewing rights under license. So yes, AB does make money on Modelo
sales.

But since signing deals with Netflix and Spotify, the couple's popularity
appears to have plunged and they have been plagued by staff turnover.
They now appear entirely estranged from the royal family.
There's the problem, nobody (well at least Americans) cares about them
unless they're spilling the tea about the royals and that's already been
done in Harry's book and a previous series.
They should probably look into getting real jobs producing real goods and/or
services instead of just trading on their celebrity. That way they'll have
something to fall back on when the public grows bored with them.
I hear there's an opening as a Bud Light spokesman.
Guess who owns the Mexican brewery that produces Modello, the new No. 1
American beer.
In April 2013, the Department of Justice reached a settlement with AB
InBev and Grupo Modelo. The settlement agreement allowed the sale to
go through if AB InBev sold Modelo?s entire U.S. business to the
company Constellation Brands.
?Before the merger, there were two competitors ? Modelo and ABI ? and
ABI owned a substantial stake in Modelo,? Bill Baer, former assistant
attorney general for DOJ Antitrust Division, said in a press release
announcing the settlement. ?The companies? proposed merger would have
reduced those two competitors to one ? ABI.?
Constellation Brands announced in June 2013 that it had completed its
acquisition of Grupo Modelo?s U.S. beer business from AB InBev for
about $4.8 billion. This means beer brands that were owned by Grupo
Modelo, including Modelo, Corona and Pacifico, are now sold by
Constellation Brands in the U.S.
AB InBev still owns the Modelo brand elsewhere in the world, but not
in the United States. That means sales of Modelo in the U.S. go to
Constellation Brands, not AB InBev.

I never said AB owned the rights to sales of Modelo in the US. However
AB still makes money indirectly from Modelo sales in the US, because
one of their subsidiaries owns 95% of the company....
"That means sales of Modelo in the U.S. go to Constellation Brands,
not AB InBev."
AB makes no money on Modelo sales in the US.
Is Constellation's license to use AB InBev's Modelo brand in the USA
royalty-free?...that's possible,but nothing you have written actually
specified that.(I know the Del Monte license to Del Monte Fresh is
royalty-free).

The World Trade Center towers MUST rise again,
at least as tall as before...or terror has triumphed.

Modelo still brews their products in Mexico for export. What Constellation
Brands got was US brewing rights under license. So yes, AB does make money on Modelo
sales.
