More after the jump.

Sony Pictures Calls Kevin Hart A “Whore” In Leaked Emails
Sheesh! If this isn’t a Public Relations ‘BIG A** FAIL’ I don’t know what is. Sony Pictures Entertainment, a subsidiary of Sony Entertainment Inc. is in hot water after a hack lead to some leaked emails between the higher-ups, agents and more about some of our favorite entertainers. Some of the famed names include, Angelina Jolie, Leonardo Dicaprio, Adam Sandler and the wildest of all, Kevin Hart. Co-chair Amy Pascal, studio exec Clint Culpepper, and Sony Entertainment CEO Michael Lynton emailed back and forth about the little-big comedian requesting more money – around the tune of $3 million – to promote his summer film, Think Like A Man 2, on social media. Yes, $3 million for one, maybe two or three 140-chractered tweets. “I’m tempted to suggest we call his bluff. If his film does NOT perform, it hurts his brand and we have his next three films,” typed Culpepper. “I’m not saying he’s a whore, but he’s a whore.” Sheesh (wipes forehead)! This is only the tip of the iceberg. Hit the jump for more.
