The ongoing drama between Pauly Shore and Richard Simmons regarding the production of a biopic has taken an unexpected turn. Shore, who had been enthusiastic about starring and executive producing a film about Simmons, raised doubts about the authenticity of Simmons’ remarks disapproving the biopic.
Shore expressed his suspicions to “Entertainment Tonight,” suggesting that the pre-death social media posts supposedly written by Simmons criticizing Shore’s involvement in the biopic might have been fabricated. He questioned the legitimacy of the tweets and stated, “I don’t even know if that was him tweeting the whole time. I don’t know who that was.”
In response to Shore’s comments, Simmons’ staff retaliated on social media by emphasizing that the remarks attributed to Simmons were indeed written by him. They dismissed Shore’s claims and clarified that Simmons had meticulously composed his posts in advance, involving his brother Lenny in the process as well.
Unapproved Biopic and Criticism
Simmons had previously expressed his disapproval of the biopic, titled “The Court Jester,” in which Shore was set to portray him. He publicly stated that he had not authorized the movie and advised his followers not to believe everything they read about the project. Furthermore, Simmons highlighted that he lacked a manager and publicist to handle such matters.
Conflict and Miscommunication
The conflicting statements from both sides have sparked a debate over the authenticity of Simmons’ position on the biopic. Shore’s assertion that Simmons wanted him to proceed with the film contradicts Simmons’ explicit denial of involvement in the project. The lack of communication and misinterpretation of intentions have further fueled the controversies surrounding the situation.
As the dispute between Pauly Shore and Richard Simmons escalates, the authenticity of Simmons’ remarks and his true stance on the biopic remain uncertain. While Shore seems adamant about his role in the film, Simmons’ disapproval and distancing from the project cast a shadow of doubt over the biopic’s future. Only time will tell how this contentious situation unfolds in the world of Hollywood.
