Hollywood MMA icon Michael Jai White has always been quite vocal about his views. And so has his wife Gillian. The duo recently made headlines when a video of them grooving to music at a party went viral. But the baffling part was – both Mr. and Mrs. White were donning matching “Black Dynamite” costumes.
What’s more – the duo has again drawn the spotlight on them, thanks to Gillian’s most recent post on Instagram. In a series of images and videos posted by Mrs. White, fans get to see the couple joining the SAG-AFRA strike that’s currently crippling Hollywood. This strike is born out of discontent among writers and actors – about adequate pay and streaming residuals.
As of now, the Screen Actors Guild – American Federation of Television and Radio Artists(SAG-AFTRA) has already joined hands with the Writers Guild of America (WGA) in the strike. Many artists claim mistreatment and inadequate compensation from production houses and studios. The strike is being headlined by A-listers and actors like George Clooney, MCU’s ‘Hulk’ Mark Ruffalo, John Cusack, and, of course, Michael Jai White and his belonged spouse, Gillian.
