Re: New Direction

In light of the change that’s sweeping the industry, CAA, as always, takes the lead. We embrace the generational shift taking place and will be moving away from older clients to focus on a younger client base that reflects the tastes of today’s audience. We are amicably parting ways with several longtime clients including Al Pacino, Meryl Streep, Anthony Hopkins, Sally Field, Annette Bening, Robin Williams, Robert Redford, Jane Fonda, and Robert De Niro. We are proud of the role CAA has played in helping these great stars of yesterday pave the way for great stars of tomorrow like Mischa Barton, Jessica Simpson, Rachel Bilson, Zach Braff, Zac Efron, and Sanjaya. We wish them all the best during their golden years and hope to visit them soon at the Motion Picture Home.

Can you hear it, D? That’s the sound of my happy moment when you finally join the P-cock stable, bro. You’re a TV All Star and we need to nail something pronto to put you back on top. Offices are still hot but chill on the lawyers. Even Ally’s moved on. Think more funny ha ha, not funny “ironic.” Also, I want Michelle in a recurring guest spot. She’s such an MILF-think demos, D. Call my girl, we’ll grab dinner @ Dan Tana’s.
