Welcome to Streamers on the Rise, where we find streamers who are growing their channels, content, and audiences in extraordinary ways. Each week we’ll talk with a creator about what goes into livestreaming–both on and off camera.
Cinna has been a McDonald’s staffer, a murder scene cleaner, and an aerospace engineer-in-training.
Now, she’s a full-time Twitch streamer.
She never thought streaming would be a career for her. She actually didn’t know about streaming at all until college. At the time, she was working two jobs to pay her way through her aerospace engineering program, and was playing video games as a hobby. She’d been raised by her dad, and he was “a big video game guy,” she says, which fostered a love of gaming in her. When she stumbled on Twitch, something about it caught her interest.

It’s tough being the daughter of one of the coolest rock stars in the world. At least, that’s what Zoë Kravitz would have you believe as she was joined by Denzel Washington this week for the unveiling of her father Lenny Kravitz’s star on the Hollywood Walk of Fame.
Four-time Grammy winner Kravitz was honored Tuesday with the star but got roasted by his daughter, who took the opportunity to gently mock her dad, the rock star and style icon.
“I’ve seen the way you show up and take care of the people you love,” the Big Little Lies actress said from the podium. “I’ve seen your incredible dedication to your art. But mostly, I’ve seen through your shirts. According to my dad, if it doesn’t expose your nipples, it’s not a shirt. And sure, it used to embarrass me when you...

Jennifer Lawrence may have lost the Golden Globe for female actor in a motion picture comedy or musical, but she provided some of the best moments of the 2024 ceremony. She went viral for mouthing “If I don’t win, I’m leaving!” at the camera when her nomination was announced, and then she generated more headlines for reuniting with her “Hunger Games” co-star Lenny Kravitz while inside the Beverly Hilton Hotel. The two actors starred as Katniss and Cinna, respectively, in “The Hunger Games” (2012) and “The Hunger Games: Catching Fire” (2013). As Cinna was Katniss’ stylist, the two actors shared many scenes together during production.
Lawrence and Kravitz’ reunion was the latest gift for “Hunger Games” fans, who recently turned the movie prequel, “The Hunger Games: The Ballad of Songbirds and Snakes,” into a box office hit last fall. Lawrence told Variety in June during her “No Hard Feelings” press tour...

When it comes to adapting much-loved books like "The Hunger Games" series, casting can often feel like threading the needle. Finding the right actor who can embody a character that many people already have a distinct image of isn't an easy task. So the fact that many of Suzanne Collins' characters felt perfectly cast feels like a bit of a miracle. Not only did they nail crucial roles like Katniss Everdeen (Jennifer Lawrence) and President Snow (Donald Sutherland), but even smaller but no less essential parts like Lenny Kravitz's Cinna or Stanley Tucci's Caesar Flickerman.

Norman Lloyd, the Emmy-nominated veteran actor, producer and director whose career ranged from Orson Welles’ Mercury Theatre, Alfred Hitchcock’s Saboteur and acting with Charlie Chaplin in Limelight to St. Elsewhere, Dead Poets Society and The Practice, died May 10 in his sleep at his Los Angeles home. He was 106. A family friend confirmed the news to Deadline.
During one of the famous Lloyd birthday celebrations, Karl Malden said, “Norman Lloyd is the history of our business.”
Blessed with a commanding voice, Lloyd’s acting career dates back to Orson Welles’ Mercury Theatre troupe, of which he was the last surviving member. He was part of its first production — 1937 a modern-dress adaptation of Shakespeare’s Julius Caesar on Broadway titled Caesar.
He originally was cast in Welles’ epic Citizen Kane and accompanied the director to Hollywood. When the filmmaker ran into his proverbial budget problems, Lloyd quit the project and returned to New York,...

Let the games begin . . . again. Nearly a decade after the third and final Hunger Games book, Mockinjay, was released in 2010, Scholastic announced a prequel novel is on the way. What was initially being referred to as the Untitled Panem Novel has now officially been titled The Ballad of Songbirds and Snakes, according to a press release from the publisher sent in early October. Suzanne Collins once again invites readers to revisit the dystopian nation of Panem during its tenth Hunger Games, which took place decades before the events of the original trilogy.
"With this book, I wanted to explore the state of nature, who we are, and what we perceive is required for our survival," Collins said in the first press statement about her new book. "The reconstruction period ten years after the war, commonly referred to as the Dark Days - as the country of...

Relax, you legions of Hunger Gamers. We have a winner. Hollywood didn’t screw up the film version of Suzanne Collins’ young-adult bestseller about a survival-of-the-fittest reality show that sends home all its teen contestants, save the victor, in body bags. The screen Hunger Games radiates a hot, jumpy energy that’s irresistible. It has epic spectacle, yearning romance, suspense that won’t quit and a shining star in Jennifer Lawrence, who gives us a female warrior worth cheering.
