I know it's not the complete chapter, but someone from my family is in the hospital and I have been staying there all the time. Hopefully, I'll get some time to finish it soon enough. I still intend to finish my tar...

Troy Armitage Creates History! Matches Walt Disney’s Record of Oscar Wins

Troy Armitage, the boy who needs no introduction, has created history once again. At the tender age of 11, Troy became the youngest male ever to win an Oscar, but now, at 17, the young man has stepped into the big leagues by winning three more Oscars in one night in the categories of Best Original Song, Best Original Score, and Best Picture (the former two for [Echoes of You] and th...

I didn’t have the words to describe the feeling of winning my second Oscar before turning 18. On one hand, it felt unimaginably good holding the trophy; on the other, I knew I hadn’t created these songs on my own. In a way, this Oscar didn’t feel like it was fully mine. With these conflicting emotions swirling in my mind, I waited backstage for the next award.

Usually, winners are ushered off to give interviews, but since I was nominated in another category immediately following t...

After that first award for Best Supporting Actor, the award show went by in a blur. One after another, more awards were being given out to different movies. In the last few weeks before the voting ended, Dad and Warner Bros had scaled up the promotions of [The Perks of Being a Wallflower] and [Echoes of You] significantly. I personally didn’t think we had any chance in a major category when a masterpiece like [Brokeback Mountain] was right there, but Warner Bros was adamant. They had just w...

(Flashback)

"Robyn," a middle-aged woman called out from the seat beside her. "When will you let me meet this boyfriend of yours? I'll be honest with you, I don't like you dating some white boy. I need to see if he's good enough for you."

Rihanna rolled her eyes but didn't look away from the road as she drove her new Audi R8. "I don't think anyone will ever be good enough for you, Mama. And why do you have a problem with his race when Dad wasn't fully black either?"

"He was ...

“Gryffindor wins!” a male voice announced over the loudspeakers. “Four hundred and fifty to one hundred and forty!”

I was handed the Quidditch Cup by Madam Hooch because I was the captain of the team.

“We won the Quidditch Cup!” Jamie as Ron yelled excitedly, hugging me like his life depended on it. We were both in our full Quidditch gear, soaking wet from head to toe. Our brooms lay forgotten on the ground, just like the rest of the team’s. It was meant to be rainin...

Seeing the audience’s reactions during the premiere of any of my movies is always a treat. Of course, it helped that all my films were carefully chosen from my meta-knowledge, as they were already destined to be critical darlings. [Echoes of You] might have been an exception to that rule, but I knew it would succeed thanks to its chartbuster songs.

“It was a great movie,” Roger Ebert said enthusiastically at the party we had organized afterward for prominent critics, cast members,...

“This is so good!” Roger Ebert said excitedly to his wife, the thrill of finally watching a film he had high hopes for evident in his voice. “Can’t wait to see the rest of it.”

His enthusiasm was so focused on the movie that he didn’t even notice his wife’s reaction to his words. It had been a while since he had seen a truly great film that wasn’t a rewatch.

The hollow eyes of Steve Carell on the screen pulled Roger back into the story. Carell, a comedic genius kno...

Rihanna felt so tired after all the touring she had been doing recently. No one had told her how exhausting the life of a pop star could be, especially when you had to rely on these tours to sustain the lifestyle. She wasn’t by any means poor, but the amount she had to spend on clothes, makeup, jewelry, fitness, and beauty treatments was entirely too much.

It didn’t help that the six-album contract Jay-Z made her sign was just shy of being labeled predatory, with her getting only ba...

The movie album of [Echoes of You] became the highest-selling album not just of the year, but of the 21st century. Thanks to Troy’s dedicated fan base, the initial reception to the album was phenomenal. The carefully orchestrated marketing strategy, which focused on popularizing the songs on YouTube, worked wonders for the movie. Coupled with the aggressive promotion by Troy’s own label, one of his songs was almost always playing on radio and TV channels.

Initially, songs like S...

It had been so long since I had won a major award that I had almost forgotten the feeling of winning anything substantial. My last award worth talking about was a Tony, and that was nearly four years ago. I can't really describe the feeling in words, but I felt like I was on top of the world. While the Golden Globes don't guarantee an Oscar win, they certainly mean that I've become a serious contender for the award now.

Scarlett cleared her throat awkwardly and tried again. “I’m sorry, Troy. I got a little carried away and didn’t see where I was going.”

“I’m fine, Ms. Johansson. Are you okay?” I smiled at the future Black Widow in a stunning red dress. Her golden blonde hair fell to her shoulders in soft curls, perfectly complementing her vibrant green eyes, making her look out of this world. Of course, a big contributing factor to her look was her plunging neckline and her larger than us...

Troy's Love Life

After chapter 152, a lot of you have expressed concerns about Troy cheating on Rihanna. First of all, let me assure you that I have no intention to let him cheat anytime soon, so even if something were to happen, it will happen with everyone in the know about it.

That said, I was toying with the idea of having an open relationship for him. It will only happen when he is an adult. I had this idea because sex lives of Hollywood actors are quite colorful, and it wouldn't be unrealistic if...

[Echoes of You] shattered all expectations, earning a staggering $21 million on its opening day, including Thursday night’s paid previews. This collection grew slightly to $23 million on Saturday before settling at $19 million on Sunday, bringing the weekend total to an impressive $63 million.

That three-day performance was sufficient to recover the film's production costs, excluding marketing and distribution expenses. Warner Bros. had spent $50 million on global promotion, pushing t...

"It's good you came when you did," the middle-aged man sitting in front of Alan said with a small smile. "The most difficult part of treatment in this disease is the diagnosis. As I like to say, if you diagnose early, half the battle is already won. Today, I officially declare you completely cancer-free."

Alan heaved a sigh of relief he hadn't realized he was holding. It had been a long and arduous battle, but he had finally overcome the...

The Golden Globes is one such award body whose nominations are announced well before any others, typically in the second week of December. For films like [Echoes of You], which are released during the holidays, a special screening is held before its release for the Hollywood Foreign Press—the group responsible for voting on the nominations and winners.

I, too, had to attend a special screening with that group of old bastards, many of whom seemed one step away from their graves. Yet, s...

Patty was more than a little excited to learn that Troy Armitage was finally releasing his first music album. And not just any album—it was part of a movie coming to the cinema soon enough.
So, like any good fan, she did what she had to do: she got in line to buy said album.

"Seriously, this is so unexpected," her best friend Claire complained. "This is literally his first album. Why are people so excited about it? He could be terrible in it."

Patty turned to her and smiled...

Poll for Ch-149

Hey guys!

I will be releasing the next chapter in an hour or so, and the one after that, later in the day.

I needed your opinion before I can finalize Ch-150. The award season is here and I'm in a dilemma because I created an album all of whose songs deserve to be nominated for the awards, so choose that one song among this list of songs that you think is the best one among all of these masterpieces. (In the order of appearance in the movie.)
