Rauw Alejandro trades stage lights for Statham’s glare in Ritchie’s gangster flick

Rauw Alejandro sidesteps the concert spotlight and steps into Guy Ritchie’s orbit for his cinematic debut in Viva La Madness, a film adaptation of J.J. Connolly’s 2011 novel. Jason Statham leads a cast that reads more like a British gangster flick reunion than a typical Hollywood ensemble.

Filming kicks off in January, promising Ritchie’s signature blend of dry wit, stylized violence and plot entanglements. Rauw hints at “special collabs” and additional screen appearances, playing coy but calculated on the Grammys red carpet.

Fortnite Hit With Lawsuit for Selling Choreographer’s Moves Without a Credit

In a legal swipe at Epic Games, choreographer Fefe Burgos accuses the Fortnite creator of repurposing his registered moves from Rauw Alejandro’s "Touching The Sky" video as a for-sale in-game emote. The gesture, Burgos claims, mirrors choreography he crafted for a platinum-certified track that paraded across various NYC backdrops.

Burgos, whose résumé includes Usher and Selena Gomez, argues Fortnite monetizes artistic labor without credit or compensation. Alejandro remains uninvolved.
