    He also filmed a movie in China which was one of the only collaborations allowed between the US and them , in it he had a big supporting role and even learned mandarin to be able to do interviews over there, but due to the political climate the release got postponed indefinitely.

    Byrne stars alongside Dwayne Johnson to save the world from global catastrophe in the action film Rampage loosely based on the video game of the same name. He can also be seen in 15:17 Train to Paris which marks the second time Byrne has worked with Oscar Award-winning director Clint Eastwood. Byrne's latest movie is Green Book for director and writer Peter Farrelly. Green Book tells the story of a working-class Italian-American bouncer who becomes the driver for an African-American classical pianist on a tour of venues through the 1960s American South and stars Viggo Mortensen and Mahershala Ali.

    In 2014, Byrne starred alongside Leonardo DiCaprio in The Wolf of Wall Street for director Martin Scorsese and proceed to team up again with the famed director in 2016 on Vinyl for HBO. He also can be seen on Big Little Lies with Nicole Kidman and Reese Witherspoon, another HBO production and on the Showtime series I'm Dying Up Here staring Melissa Leo.

    Incredibly well versed in drama, comedy and science fiction/fantasy work, Byrne is one of the stars of the upcoming SyFy Channel series Temors, which also stars Kevin Bacon. Tremors is a television reboot of the film of the same name in which a small town is gripped with fear over giant underground worms living beneath them.

  • Emmy Award Journalist Gaby Natale

    Today on The Neil Haley Show, Neil Haley will interview Gaby Natale.

    3-time EMMY Award winning journalist, speaker, and entrepreneur Gaby Natale, well-known for her countless in-depth celebrity interviews with luminaries such as spiritual guru Deepak Chopra and rock legend Carlos Santana, is now breaking barriers by becoming the first Latina to be published by HarperCollins Leadership with the release of her book The Virtuous Circle which hits the stands on January 5th, 2021. By partnering with HarperCollins Leadership, Natale is the first Hispanic author to join an impressive roster of bestselling names including John C. Maxwell (NY Times Bestselling author, Change Your World) and Rachel Hollis (NY Times Bestselling author, Girl, Wash Your Face), among others.

    The Virtuous Circle is based on a provocative premise: talent and connections do not guarantee a path to success. What is it then that sets top achievers apart from everybody else? Gaby Natale, host of the award-winning talk show “SuperLatina”, has created a system of 7 immanent archetypes that, once activated, create a clear path to achievement. Based on a decade of interviews with extraordinary world leaders from different disciplines, such as wellbeing guru Deepak Chopra, bestselling author Isabel Allende, and rock legend Carlos Santana, Natale breaks down their stories to discover how they channeled their inner strengths to best work for them. The book not only gleans the road-to-success stories of newsmakers across the globe but also Natale’s improbable path from unemployment in her native Argentina to becoming a 3-time Emmy award winning media personality and entrepreneur in the United States. Pushing boundaries is intentional for Natale, who also pioneers by becoming one of the few foreign-born authors to narrate their book in English. And she uncovers the secrets of an overlooked but powerful ability that can be learned; the capacity to see ourselves not only as who we are, in our particular circumstances, but also as who we can become. After a tumultuous year in 2020, The Virtuous Circle gives readers the powerful tools to reach their full capacity in 2021. The book’s pub date is January 5th, 2021.

    Grammy Award Winning Group The Baha Men Tell Their Story Part 2

    Today on The Total Media Network's Dr. Christopher Hall Show,

    Dr. Hall and The Total Tutor Neil Haley will interview Grammy Award Winning Group The Baha Men.

    Approaching their 30th anniversary as a group, the Baha Men rode a massive wave of success in the early 2000s following the release of hit single, ‘Who Let the Dogs Out’. Featured in major motion pictures and chanted throughout sports stadiums around the globe, the Baha Men unleashed a revolutionary form of Caribbean pop that permeated American pop culture.

    The hit single would go on to earn the band several awards including a 2000 Grammy Award for Best Dance Recording,as well as Billboard Music Awards for World Music Artist and Album of the Year. The group would also win a Nickelodeon Kids Choice Award for Favorite Song the same year, then follow it up with another Kids Choice Award for Favorite Band in 2002.

    Their worldwide success also propelled them into the film industry, where they saw several of their songs featured in movies such as Miss Congeniality, Around the World in 80 Days, Garfield: The Movie, Men In Black II, and most notably, The Hangover. 2003 also saw their hit song ‘Best Years of Our Lives’ featured in the international hit, Shrek.

    A relationship with Disney brought about several opportunities for the Baha Men, as well. In 2002, the group covered The Lion King classic, ‘Hakuna Matata’, for the debut DisneyMania album. The band would also go on to record ‘Bahama Roller Coaster Ride’, their take on ‘Hawaiian Roller Coaster Ride’ from the movie Lilo & Stitch for DisneyMania 4.

    ​
    Recognized by Rolling Stone as “Bahamian junkanoo pioneers”, the Baha Men continue to hit monumental milestones. With the support of Sony Music Entertainment, the group released ‘Night and Day’ in 2014. Soon after, the track was selected to be featured alongside Shakira, Jennifer Lopez, Santana, and others in the 2014 FIFA World Cup Official Album. In 2015, the band released Ride With Me, their first album in over ten years, following a performance at the halftime show of a New York Giants vs. Dallas Cowboys game. The album would mark the beginning of a relationship between the Baha Men and producer Troyton Rami (Sean Paul, Beenie Man, Wayne Wonder), who would go on to produce future releases. As the band nears 100 million cumulative streams worldwide, the group has also performed on Live with Kelly and Ryan, The Bachelorette, and collaborated with Our Last Night for a performance that has since surpassed a million views on YouTube.

    Through a partnership with producer Troyton Rami, the Baha Men first released ‘Bumpa’ on February 22nd, 2018. Reaching 200K Spotify streams since release and featured on Sirius XM’s Venus Channel, they followed up the single with the April 5th, 2019 release of ‘Let’s Go’. Produced by DJ Buddha (Pitbull), the band honed their high-energy, junkanoo-meets-hip hop brew.

    With their April 30th release of ‘Take A Chance,” recorded with Patrick Romantik in Miami, the Baha Men continue to prove their longevity and ability to craft high energy pop hooks while maintaining a close-knit and familial feel to their music.
