Will and Kate have been doing their royal duties by taking a tour of the…
Honestly, I am in shock right now as I watch in real time – I always randomly wake up around 3am – as social media ignites over Will Smith apparently slapping Chris Rock with an open hand on global television.

Having worked in industry, it’s natural to learn a thing or two. The Truth About…series usually gives insights into lessons I think artists should be aware of. This special edition is for clients.
