And not just singing and dancing, which I doubt talents hate since that's been there for years, but the endless number of recordings for whatever licensed product tie-ins, voice packs, sponsor work likely becoming mandatory if you're not a top earner who can negotiate otherwise. The only "hurr durr homos & males" stuff that's forced is them being pushed to show up on whatever TV or radio shows, because for some reason hiring executives from a dying medium is Cover's strategy for growth.
