WGAStrike : EXCLU DeadlineDominic on how a star-studded CHANEL event tonight on Paramount lot proved a test case for the gray areas of Hollywood labor action, personal morality & neutral gates
lot for its star-studded cruise collection show starting tonight at 7 p.m. PT. Back then, the outdoor gathering for the fashion house led by Virginie Viard seemed like a savvy and timely way to reinforce links between the designer and Hollywood on a pleasant May night. Even now, Kristen Stewart, the current face of the house that Coco built, is expected to be one of the nearly 800 guests, as is Margot Robbie and Marion Cotillard.
As striking scribes pound the sidewalks in front of all the major studios and many filming locations in Los Angeles and New York City, individual Teamsters are refusing to cross picket lines, and shows are shutting down. Despite hectoring emails from the likes of Disney, Warner Bros and CBS Studios telling showrunners to show up for work, many are standing in solidarity with writers, as are cast and other crew members.
Personal morality aside, however, in the case of the Chanel event, no line, picket or otherwise, has been crossed, and it perfectly all right to attend. In fact, the WGA and Chanel worked out directly what tonight’s protocol would be, sources say. “The show venue was chosen many months ago and is a rental space on the Paramount Studios lot, which is not affected by the strike,” a spokesperson for the fashion company said today. “This choice in no way reflects any position by Chanel on the current situation. We sincerely hope that the parties involved will quickly reach an agreement.”
