Tiger Mom Amy Chua Picks A Fight With Emmy Winner Alan Yang

HOLLYWOOD, California (The Adobo Chronicles, Los Angeles Bureau) – In accepting the Emmy Award for Outstanding Writing for a Comedy Series for the ‘Master of None’ episode ‘Parents,’ writer Alan Yang urged Asian parents to give their kids cameras instead of violins. That didn’t sit well with ‘Tiger Mom’ Amy Chua. She demanded an apology from Yang.

Chua is the author of the controversial book, ‘Battle Hymn of the Tiger Mother,’ in which she narrates her insistence on piano and violin lessons for her two daughters. For years, Chua fought pitched battles with her kids about practicing — putting Lulu, age 3, outside in the cold because she wouldn’t take instruction. She also threatened to burn her kids’ stuffed animals, and denying dinner until a piece was perfected.

“Who is to say that the camera makes one a better person than the violin,” Chua said.

The moral of the story: Hollywood can’t pick a fight with the Tiger mom. It’s a losing proposition.

HOUSTON, Texas (The Adobo Chronicles, San Francisco Bureau) – San Francisco 49ers quarterback Colin Kaepernick just found an ally in his refusal to stand for the playing of the national athem in protest of what he deems are wrongdoings against African Americans and minorities in the United States. That ally is none other than Lady Gaga.

The diva sang the national anthem at last year’s Superbowl 50 at the Levi’s Stadium in Santa Clara — standing up of course — but she will sit it out during Superbowl 51 at the NRG Stadium in Houston, Texas on February 5, 2017.

Lady Gaga, if we were to believe US Magazine, has been chosen to perform during the half-time show for Superbowl 51.

When the national anthem is sung (singer still to be announced), Lady Gaga will be seated inside the green room while awaiting her turn to perform for the half-time show.
