On the Scene
covering culture where it happens
From symphony halls to studio sets, Hollywoodland News is on the ground documenting the stories that matter. We show up where representation is shifting, where queer and BIPOC voices are being amplified, and where culture is being reclaimed in real time. As an Indigenous, Latina and LGBTQIA+ led platform, we bring lived experience to every red carpet, every screening and every space that hasn’t always made room for us. These are our latest stories, reported with truth, context and fire.

Welcome to Hollywoodland news!
Where Truth meets culture and power
Diversity in Hollywood isn’t just ignored history. It’s unfolding right now. We started by spotlighting the forgotten pioneers of Classic Hollywood but today we’re in the room. From press lines to private screenings, concert halls to red carpet premieres, we cover the stories that too often go untold. We show up with purpose, ask the hard questions and bring an Indigenous and Latina lens to spaces that have rarely made room for either.
