Moriah Plath: I Nearly Killed Myself Due to All This Family Drama! on September 13, 2023 at 8:05 pm The Hollywood Gossip

Moriah Plath opened way up on the latest episode of her family’s reality show.
About something very personal.
And something extremely painful.
“A few months ago, I hit rock bottom,” Moriah told her father, Barry Plath on September 12 installment of Welcome to Plathville.

The 21-year old then elaborated as follows:
“I got used to just being miserable and I forgot what it felt like to be happy. And I was just yucky on the inside. I was very dark, very depressed.
“I just didn’t want to live anymore.”
YIKES, huh?

The Plath family has faced a number of hardships in recent months and years.
Barry and Kim Plath announced their divorce in June 2022, while Moriah ended her close friendship last year with sister-in-law Olivia after the latest stirred up too much controversy with Moriah’s parents and siblings.
While speaking to her dad on air this week, Moriah even claimed that Olivia stole her music they recorded together.
“I started to feel like this is not how I want to live my life,” she explained in a confessional.
“Like, God, if this is how it’s going to be, I just, I would rather just die. Like, I would never kill myself. But like, can you take me now?”

The TLC personality emphasized that she thankfully reached a “huge pivot” moment and realized she needed to make a change.
Moriah even revealed that she wanted to get baptized again, saying that it wasn’t her “choice” the first time she was went through this religious experience because she was so very young.
“I’ve tried to do this alone for years, and there’s no way I’m going to be able to get through this without Jesus,” she said.
“God never felt real in my life until I hit rock bottom, until I realized I can’t do it alone.”
Moriah discussed her tense family situation in this confessional. (TLC)
On the Season 4 premiere, Moriah said via confessional that things have become extremely tense between her and her former best friend, Olivia, especially as Moriah has grown closer to her mom and dad again.
“Olivia has said a bunch of things about my parents for years, and it’s only gotten worse,” she said.
“It’s gotten to the point where lies are being told. And I personally want to do my part in making things right.”
Just over a year ago, Moriah and her siblings released a joint statement.
It came in the wake of Olivia feuding with her in-laws on numerous occasions.

“We as a family have decided to not be divided anymore,” the message opened back then, continuing as follows:
“There is a lot more to the story than what you all have seen on the show.
“While we understand that this is a TV show and we are not in control how the show is edited, we are actually a family that is full of love and respect for each other.
“That being said, we as a family are not going to sit back and watch as our family is driven apart.”
Moriah Plath looks a bit distraught in this confessional. (TLC)
Olivia Plath once accused Kim of stealing from Ethan; she’s now estranged from all of her in-laws.
On the September 5 Welcome to Plathville episode, Moriah moved out of the home she had been sharing with Ethan and Olivia.
“I don’t know how this is gonna play out,” she said at the time.
“But I do know when it comes to Olivia, I don’t feel even guilty at all for just saying, ‘Hey look. You were my best friend for a while, I love you, I wish you the best, but I don’t wanna be a part of it anymore.’
“It’s sad, it’s really really sad, especially because I know that by me ending my relationship with Olivia, I probably won’t have a relationship with Ethan for a while.
“But this is what I needed.”

California Bans AI Clones from Replacing Real Talent

California just made a dramatic stand for human creativity, defeating the threat of AI actor clones with a sweeping new law that puts people—not algorithms—back in the Hollywood spotlight. With the stroke of Governor Gavin Newsom’s pen in October 2025, the state has sent a clear message to studios, tech companies, and the world: entertainment’s heart belongs to those who create and perform, not to digital facsimiles.
California Draws a Hard Line: No More AI Clones
For months, the entertainment industry has been divided over the use of artificial intelligence in filmmaking. Studios, lured by promises of cost-cutting and creative flexibility, have invested in software that can mimic an actor’s face, voice, and even emotional range. But for performers, this wave of synthetic reproduction has triggered alarm—encouraged by chilling stories of deepfakes, unauthorized digital doubles, and contracts that let studios reuse a star’s likeness indefinitely, sometimes without pay or approval.
The new California law, anchored by AB 2602 and AB 1836, changes everything:
- Every contract must explicitly detail how studios can use digital replicas or voice models, preventing once-common “blank check” agreements that overlooked this risk.
- No one—not studios nor streaming giants—can create or release AI-generated clones of an actor, living or dead, without clear, written consent from the performer or their estate.
- The law gives families new powers to defend loved ones from posthumous deepfake exploitation, closing painful loopholes that once let virtual versions of late icons appear in new ads, films, or games.
Actors Celebrate a Major Victory
The legislation rides the momentum of the recent SAG-AFTRA strike, where real-life talent demanded control over their own digital destinies. Leaders say these protections will empower artists to negotiate fair contracts and refuse participation in projects that cross ethical lines, restoring dignity and choice in an industry threatened by silent algorithms.
Stars, unions, and advocacy groups are hailing the law as the most robust defense yet against unwanted AI replications.
As one actor put it, “This isn’t just about money—it’s about identity, legacy, and respect for real artists in a synthetic age.”
A New Chapter for the Entertainment Industry
California’s move isn’t just a victory for local talent—it’s a warning shot to studios everywhere. Companies will now be forced to rethink production pipelines, consult legal counsel, and obtain proper clearance before digitally cloning anyone. Global entertainment platforms and tech developers will need to comply if they want to do business in the world’s entertainment capital.

These laws also set a template likely to ripple through other creative fields, from musicians whose voices can be synthesized to writers whose work could be mimicked by generative AI. For now, California performers finally have a powerful shield, ready to fight for the right to shape their own public image.
Conclusion: Human Talent Takes Center Stage
With its no-nonsense ban on AI actor clones, California draws a bold line, championing the work, likeness, and very humanity of its creative stars. It’s a landmark step that forces the entertainment industry to choose: respect real talent, or face real consequences. The age of the consentless digital double is over—human performers remain the true source of Hollywood magic.

Chaos and Comedy: Darby Kingman’s “Camp Wackapoo: Rise of Glog”

Darby Kingman’s “Camp Wackapoo: Rise of Glog” redefines summer camp comedy with a wild, energetic story about ambition, chaos, and the joy of embracing the unexpected. The film centers on a relentlessly competitive camp counselor who’s determined to finish first—only to face a motley crew of unruly campers and a summer unlike any other.
As Darby puts it, “Not everything is that deep. It really honestly was to make people laugh. She has all these kids that are not working with her and she’s just losing her mind. It’s crazy, silly, goofy, and it was a blast.”
What started as a simple scene for Darby’s acting reel evolved into a full-fledged film with encouragement from her mentor at Debbie Reynolds Acting School. Darby dove into every role—writing, directing, starring, and meticulously preparing each prop and costume. “Plan and prepare, but also be flexible and ready to be in the moment—that’s when the magic happens,” she advises.
Working with a handpicked cast of her own dance students, Darby built an atmosphere of real teamwork and camaraderie. She credits the “precious” energy of her young cast, her creative director of photography, and the overall spirit of her production team for turning the project into something bigger than herself. Her experience is an inspiring blueprint for indie filmmakers:
“Take initiative and control of your career. You can’t just sit around and wait for somebody to pick you. Figure out what you’re good at and go for it. Create something that brings joy to others.”

Her production motto? “Preparation is key, but you have to be ready to go with the flow—that’s when the magic happens.” Darby’s fearless creativity, focus on collaboration, and love for comedy shine throughout “Camp Wackapoo: Rise of Glog.” It’s more than just a camp satire—it’s a heartfelt testament to hard work, original humor, and leadership from the ground up: “People need to laugh right now. That’s a win.”
