Addison Rae flamed on social media just for watching anime CrunchyRoll / Instagram: addisonraeeTikTok star Addison Rae has found herself in the middle of a social media storm after saying that she watches anime. Fans of the genre have been flocking to her comment section on all platforms to beg her to “leave anime alone.” Despite a general lack of recent drama, Addison has not stayed out of the spotlight, largely thanks to the interest surrounding her romantic life. With her recent confirmation that she and former love interest Bryce Hall were just “friends,” fans had begun to look for new people to pair the successful influencer with. She even had to call people out for going overboard with creating rumors about her dating fellow TikTok star Troy Zarba, saying she was “losing friendships” thanks to the false stories. She also said “do y’all not hang out with your friends or should I just not have them?” While those rumors were laid to rest and fans were encouraged to take a step back from speculating, new drama arose rather unexpectedly from the anime community when Addison posted a series of tweets about the app CrunchyRoll. CrunchyRoll is a popular streaming service that people primarily use to watch anime and similar content. Addison clearly had an interest in being part of the fun, when on September 7 she tweeted that “CrunchyRoll is now downloaded onto my phone. Ttyl,” with another tweet saying “CrunchyRoll and chill.” The anime community responds Despite the harmless nature of the tweets, some anime fans immediately grew concerned that the form of animation was becoming a “trend.” One fan said: “Anime was supposed to be a sanctuary, how in the world did it get to this. We anime watchers have been bullied for liking anime and now people are just using it for clout. Shame, what a shame.” Another said: “I don’t want anime to become a trend. I’ve been bullied because of anime by people who watched one episode of HxH are now “wEeBs”. Seriously, people are watching it superficially but don’t understand how much it means to us and how important it is.” Some fans even flocked to her TikTok comments to repeat a similar message, “leave anime alone.” Anime was supposed to be a sanctuary how in the world did it grt to this, I love trends but this one is a big NO for me, we anime watchers have been bullied for liking anime now people are just using it for clout, shame, what a shame??? — sesshomaru’s SIMP (@TodoXdeku321) September 8, 2020 I don’t want anime to become a trend. I’ve been bullied because of anime by people who watched one episode of HxH are now “wEeBs”. Seriously, people are watching it superficially but don’t understand how much it means to us and how important it is. — bepsiツ (@bepsi74972168) September 8, 2020 However, not everyone agreed with the extreme nature of the backlash to the rather innocuous tweets. One person said: “The amount of people saying they were bullied for liking anime, but continuing to gatekeep is crazy! Don’t do what was done to you,” and that they “love seeing new fans.” One warm message came from a fan who said: “QUEEN BEHAVIOR! Please ignore these weirdos trying to gatekeep in the replies. Hope you find a series you enjoy and have fun!” The amount of people saying they were bullied for liking anime, but continuing to gatekeep is crazy! Don’t do what was done to you. Welcome new fans with open arms and recommendations! I’ve been watching since I was a child and I’m now 28, I absolutely love seeing new fans. — Renèe (@GhibliGal) September 8, 2020 QUEEN BEHAVIOR! Please ignore these weirdos trying to gakekeep in the replies. Hope you find a series you enjoy and have fun! — Short King of the Court | Thank you Furudate! (@ShaKing807) September 8, 2020 Addison Rae is one of the most popular TikTok influencers, with a huge following of over 60 million on TikTok alone. No doubt she will be hoping that this social media storm will subside soon enough.

Addison Rae fires back as Josh Richards claims Charli D’Amelio would “destroy” her in fight – Dexerto
Addison Rae fires back as Josh Richards claims Charli D’Amelio would “destroy” her in fight Charli D’Amelio, InstagramAddison Rae brushed off comments Josh Richards made that she would lose to Charli D’Amelio in a cage fight in what he described to be a fight to determine who the “queen of TikTok” is. The Hollywood fix released a video recently asking Addison Rae what her response to Canadian YouTuber Josh Richards about her and Charli D’Amelio in the latest edition of ‘Answer The Internet’ — which, in true 2022 internet stardom, asked who would win in a fight. His immediate response was to pit Addison Rae and Charli D’Amelio in a match together, justifying the decision by stating that he wanted to see, “a battle over who the queen of TikTok really is.” When he was then asked who he thought would win in the match, he chose to back Charli D’Amelio over Addison Rae. “I’ve seen a fight video of Charli D’Amelio before when she was in private school or what not and she was dragging that girl by her hair.” Richards did take a moment to reconsider but then doubled down on his original answer, describing Charli as “feisty” to close out his answer. However, the idea didn’t really get past Rae. “What do I think about it? I don’t think about it,” was her short and sharp response to Richards believing she would get “destroyed”. She brushed off any further questions on the matter — which is more of a fantasy than a realistic fight being planned. However, if there was anyone to size up the two in a fight, it’d be Josh Richards. Back in 2020, Richards was seen hanging out with Addison Rae and her then-boyfriend Bryce Hall on multiple occasions. He would talk about the pair on his YouTube videos and has spilled the beans on their relationship status in the past. Similarly, he also had a bit to do with Charli D’Amelio in the past, with the two stars connected through Charli’s sister Dixie D’Amelio.

Addison Rae finally responds to Euphoria casting rumors – Dexerto
Addison Rae finally responds to Euphoria casting rumors HBO / YouTube: Entertainment TonightTikTok star Addison Rae has given her reaction after rumors spread that she may be potentially cast in season three of hit coming-of-age drama series Euphoria. Addison Rae may have gotten her start on TikTok, but she’s breaking into Hollywood with a bang following her acting debut in Netflix’s ‘He’s All That’ last year. Since then, the TikTok star — who boasts over 88 million followers on the video-sharing app — has scored a multi-film deal with Netflix, aiming to take her career to new heights. Considering her foray into the movie biz, some fans have been keeping a keen eye out for any upcoming projects Rae might be involved in… and some were convinced that she might be making an appearance in the upcoming season of Euphoria. Euphoria is a wildly popular drama series that follows the lives of teenagers as they battle with struggles like drug addiction, trauma, and other issues. Zendaya, who stars in the show, notably received an Emmy for her performance as main character Rue this year. Addison Rae responds to rumors of being cast in Euphoria Season 3 Entertainment Tonight caught up with Addison in Los Angeles at The Hollywood Reporter’s Women in Entertainment Gala, where they asked her about this rumor — but, according to the social media star, that’s all it is: a rumor. That being said, she’s more than willing to take part in the show and joked that she would “manifest” the rumor into being a reality. “I will say that that’s a rumor,” she admitted. “And we can manifest that. I’m sure a lot of people would have interesting thoughts and feelings about that, but thank you. That’s very nice. I hope that’s true. I haven’t seen that anywhere. …I’m comin’ for you.” (Topic begins at 0:58 in the video below) For now, it’s unclear what Addison’s next move is — but not everyone is here for her success, with singer Aubrey O’Day recently shading the influencer for her big breaks while “the old-school people had to fight through the gatekeepers every step of the way.”

Addison Rae finally confirms relationship status with Bryce Hall – Dexerto
Addison Rae finally confirms relationship status with Bryce Hall Instagram: Addison Rae/ Bryce HallTikTok star Addison Rae has confirmed in an interview with Entertainment Tonight that after an on-again off-again relationship with fellow influencer Bryce Hall, the pair have moved on from each other for the time being, but are “still friends.” Rumors about the nature of the stars’ relationship began to emerge after they began posting TikToks with each other in Fall 2019. This escalated this year when they were even seen holding hands, fuelling the idea that they were in a relationship. While they confirmed that they were “testing the waters” there was never any official confirmation of a relationship, instead opting to say that they “were kind of a thing” back in November. Yet following a series of vague tweets in early August, many began to suspect that Addison and Bryce had broken things off with each other, Bryce saying “watch how fast I can not give a f**k.” Addison reminded fans that “no one knows the full story” and that things were being explained “privately.” The nature of what went down between the two remained ambiguous for several weeks, but Addison appears to have confirmed some of the details in an interview she and her mom did with Entertainment Tonight. Topic starts at 0:22 in the video below. “There was a lot of times when we were on, we were off, and it was kind of just a confusing situation,” she explained. “Right now we’re just kind of both deciding that there are a lot of things going on in both of our lives that we really need to focus on.” There doesn’t seem to be any hard feelings from Addison’s end however, as she says: “At the end of the day, we’re both still wishing the best for each other, and still friends.” Whether or not it’s truly the end for ‘Braddison’ remains to be seen, as Addison seems to have left it open. “Who knows what will happen in the future, I’m kind of just living life day by day. We’re still young, so I’m really not too worried about anything.” While potentially disappointing news for fans of the TikTok couple, “friends” is certainly more positive than enemies.

Addison Rae finally addresses her controversial Donald Trump meetup – Dexerto
Addison Rae finally addresses her controversial Donald Trump meetup Instagram: addisonraee / Gage Skidmore, Wikimedia CommonsTikTok star Addison Rae has finally spilled the beans regarding her highly controversial greeting to Donald Trump at a UFC event in July. Addison Rae is one of TikTok’s biggest powerhouses. The influencer has founded her own makeup line, kickstarted a musical career, and is even starring in the recently released Netflix film, “He’s All That.” In spite of her major success, Rae can’t seem to shake a legion of critics who follow her every move. The star has spoken out against being body-shamed by commenters in the past, and was met with heavy backlash after using dances created by Black influencers on Jimmy Fallon in March. This negative opinion of Rae only intensified after the star was caught introducing herself to former United States president Donald Trump at UFC 264. The entire moment was caught during a vlog by the NELK Boys, showing Rae claiming she “had to” introduce herself to Trump and shaking his hand. Rae’s greeting to Trump sparks backlash This sparked a slew of speculation claiming that Rae was a Trump supporter, with critics bringing up old liked tweets and photos from her account. When approached by paparazzi about the incident, Rae notably turned away and made no comment. Over a month later, Rae has finally opened up about her meeting with Trump, as told in an interview with the Los Angeles Times — although she initially claimed she didn’t “feel comfortable talking about it.” Rae addresses criticism over meeting Trump According to the article, Rae said she felt it was “pointless” trying to convince netizens about her political beliefs, stating, “there’s nothing I can do to change that opinion.” “I mean, I don’t support Trump,” she clarified. “And if someone does, that’s their opinion, and I respect everyone’s opinion. To each their own. But it’s very rare on occasion that you ever get to meet a former president, and I think most people could agree with me on that.” “It’s very uncommon. And I consider myself a friendly person, and so introducing myself does not mean I stand behind anything that any respective person condones.” Public opinion regarding Rae’s statement on the subject seems to be highly divided, with comments leaning more toward the inflammatory than the complimentary. It’s unclear if Rae will approach the topic again, but she has been met with support from other stars in the past, namely UFC President Dana White and YouTuber Tana Mongeau, who dubbed the entire ordeal “a very iconic, viral moment.”

Addison Rae fans want TikTok star in Euphoria after viral Instagram photos Addison Rae InstagramAddison Rae fans really want to see the TikTok star in HBO’s Euphoria after her latest Instagram photoshoot went viral.

She said, “I would love to do Euphoria, I really just love all of the girls that are on it… I’ve met [Alexa Demie], and she was really really sweet. And I would love to work with her.” View this post on Instagram The HBO adaptation is capturing audiences worldwide for its gritty and provocative storytelling with leading star Zendaya. Euphoria fever has hit fans and critics alike, so the show could be around for a while. And if the calls get loud enough, it’ll be interesting to see if we get to see Addison Rae in Euphoria after all.

Addison Rae fans outraged after star chops hair in new photos Instagram: addisonraeeFans of TikTok star Addison Rae were left stunned and outraged after she appeared to cut off her long hair in favor of a pixie cut in a new Instagram pic. Addison Rae is one of the most popular content creators on TikTok, where she boasts over 88 million followers. Throughout her time in the limelight, Addison has boasted long strawberry-blonde hair, which she’s occasionally changed to a dark brunette from time to time. Her long hair is a signature part of her playful, flirty style, which fans have gotten used to over the years… but now, she may have made a big change to her look. Addison Rae gets pixie cut and shocks fans On December 9, Addison Rae uploaded a new photo of herself to Instagram with a close-cut crop of dark brown hair. It looks like the star may have gotten an unannounced pixie cut, although it’s just as possible that it may be a wig. Either way, her fans don’t seem to be impressed. A slew of commenters have lashed out at Rae’s new look, with some even asking her to “grow it back.” “What is wrong with you?” one user wrote. “Better be a wig,” another said. “Wtf is this?” several others asked. Still others compared Rae’s new ‘do to fellow TikToker and singer Dixie D’Amelio, who notably shaved her head of long, dark hair in favor of a full-on buzz cut during her breakup with ex-boyfriend Noah Beck. Those aren’t the only photos she’s posted of her updated look, either. Addison also updated her Instagram profile picture to show the top of her head, still boasting the short hair and bangs, while she uploaded a video taken from her photo shoot with the short hair to her Stories. For now, it’s unclear whether or not Addison really cut her hair short; she recently sported her long hair during an interview with Entertainment Tonight, where she spoke out on rumors that claimed she’d been cast in Euphoria Season 3.

To the other point, fans might have to wait for new music but recently a number of Addison Rae’s unreleased works were leaked on SoundCloud.

Addison Rae eyeing new viral TikTok trend and it’s a 90s throwback Instagram: addisonraeeTikTok star Addison Rae is apparently looking to bring back a 90’s fashion trend as she continues to be a trendsetter for many around the globe. The rise of TikTok has helped create a new crop of social media influencers in the exact same way that Vine did back in 2016. Addison Rae is among the group of top creators that has swapped the viral video app for mainstream success, launching a podcast, getting a TV show, starring in a Netflix movie, and even teaming up with the Kardashian’s. The 20-year-old has also become a fashion trendsetter, with fans around the globe looking to copy her fits from different TikToks and Instagram posts. Well, she could soon send everyone back in time with her latest attempt at starting a trend. This time around though, the trend isn’t what shoes shes wearing or what bag she’s holding, but rather what she puts in her hair. The TikTok star’s stylist Ryan Richman told US Weekly that she wants to bring back the 90’s hair feather. Not a feather hat or the Great Gatsby-style headpiece, but rather the hair extension. “I’m not sure where she got the idea, but I just love that she’s willing to do something completely different that nobody’s doing,” Richman told the Stylish magazine. “I’m all on board. If the feather comes back or the tinsel strand or anything like that, I’m all for it.” The throwback look has already made an appearance in a few of Addison’s posts, so fans have seen it. It’ll be a case of whether or not they follow along with her, but given how popular some of her other fashion choices have been, she might bring the hairstyle back.

More than usual people being concerned about your relationship stuff.” Topic starts at 6:47 Addison went on to explain what she would have done differently on reflection. “I think the lesson I learned from it is just, keep your circle small, and keep your fights private.

She released her very first single ‘Obsessed’ in March to mixed reception, and the movie she stars in, ‘He’s All That,’ is set to release on August 27. Although she has over 80 million TikTok followers, it’s also safe to say that the star has received a great deal of hate for her creative endeavors, particularly when it came to the release of her first single. On a new episode of her podcast ‘That Was Fun?’ Addison and guest Tate McRae spoke about the issue of hate when it comes to releasing new projects. Addison said she’s “nervous” for the release of the film, revealing that she also sings in it. “At the same time, I did my best, and I feel like that’s all I could do, is do my best in it,” she explained. “There’s gonna be people who don’t like it, and there’s gonna be people that do, so I’m like, whatever, at the end of the day it doesn’t really matter. And I think it’s the same thing with everything, even music, you know. Some people are gonna be like ‘I hate this.’” Topic starts at -3:40 (18:28) But she agreed with Tate’s sentiment that you can’t release music thinking of other people. “It’s almost the thing that get’s people to accept it more, is when you actually like it,” Addison explained, “cause then you’re like, it’s me. It’s a reflection of me, this is my song, my music, like this is my heart into that. And then people are like, ‘oh, look at it from your perspective,’ and begin to like it even more for not only their reasons but also because you love it so much.” The August 27 release date of ‘He’s All That’ is fast approaching, and with Addison teasing that a full album could be coming soon, it looks like the year will continue to be a busy one for the star.

Addison Rae explains how paparazzi caused her to change her pink Tesla – Dexerto
Addison Rae explains how paparazzi caused her to change her pink Tesla Instagram: addisonraeTikTok sensation Addison Rae revealed that she’d changed the color of her iconic Tesla from bright pink to navy after the car started getting her some unwanted attention. 20-year-old Addison is undoubtedly one of the biggest stars on TikTok, with over 80 million followers to her name on the platform — not to mention the other social media platforms she’s active on. From starring in a movie to launching a music career, the influencer is certainly making waves in various different industries thanks to her popularity online. Back in December 2020, Addison’s father Monty Lopez went the extra mile for his daughter and got RDB LA to custom wrap her Tesla Model X in a satin-finish bubble gum pink. The TikToker’s car could be easily spotted, and many loved the bright pink addition to the car, including Addison herself. But in an interview with Vogue’s Jen Wang on May 17, the star revealed that she actually decided to swap out the bright pink for a more subtle navy. Read More: How does Addison Rae make money? – Addison explained: “It was drawing a lot of attention. Which I love, ’cause I love being able to, like, have a free meet and greet with people. But then there are those moments when you want to be alone.” She also elaborated on one of the moments that made her want to change the color of her car. “One time I went to Chick-fil-A, and these paparazzi got out of their cars in the drive-through and came right up to me, videoing me, and I’m just like, ‘I’m sorry, I just want to grab food really quick.’ “I always loved having a bright car, but now it’s kind of, like, I’m asking for it. To be confronted or to be followed.” The car was certainly catching people’s eye when she was out and about — both in good ways and bad ways. At one point Addison was even filmed by paparazzi as she got pulled over by police, the bright pink vehicle making it hard to maintain privacy. The star is set to make her movie debut when ‘He’s All That’ releases on August 27, with many fans excited to see how the star will perform on-screen.

Addison Rae explains how her TikTok ban came at the perfect time – Dexerto
Addison Rae explains how her TikTok ban came at the perfect time TikTok: Addison RaeAddison Rae revealed how she was accidentally banned from TikTok after talking to her team about how toxic social media has become. With over 85m followers on TikTok, Addison Rae has continued to hold her position as one of the most followed creators on the platform right behind Charli D’Amelio and Khaby Lame. Being one of the first new-age celebrities to rise from the app, many were surprised when she posted on her Twitter profile that she was permanently banned (and subsequently unbanned) from the platform on October 16. While recording an episode of REIGN with Josh Smith, the TikTok star explained how a simple conversation with her team may have accidentally resulted in her not so permanent ban. Addison Rae’s TikTok ban Uploaded on October 26, REIGN with Josh Smith had Addison Rae talking about her TikTok ban as well as how she gets through people being overly critical of her, and how she’s learned to be more kind to herself amid her newfound popularity. Starting off the show, the host asked about her recent ban in which she claimed she was going to “have to get a real job” in her posts on social media. Rae responded by recalling the events leading up to seeing the harrowing ban message. She explained: “I was like, talking to my friends and my team and was like ‘Social media is so toxic. I wish it would go back to the way it was where you would just post to share.’ and then I go on my TikTok, start scrolling, and all of a sudden it said permanently banned.” (Context starts at 0:50, full episode here) Joking that she may have accidentally manifested her own ban, she said: “The universe was like, please quit talking bad about social media, Count your blessings.” Addison went on to explain that she believes her ban was “random” and the platform had no reason to issue it. However, she’s not keeping all of her eggs in one basket as she secured a deal for a show with Snapchat. At least she’ll have something else to keep her busy if she’s ever banned on TikTok again.

Addison Rae & Emma Chamberlain among influencers facing Met Gala invite backlash – Dexerto
Addison Rae & Emma Chamberlain among influencers facing Met Gala invite backlash Instagram: emmachamberlain, addisonraeeThe 2021 Met Gala will take place this September with a focus on American fashion — and despite fans being desperate for a massive fashion fiesta, they’re not happy about the event’s rumored guest list. The Met Gala is one of the biggest celebrity events of the year. The annual fundraiser brings together A-List stars from all across the arts to dress up in their best finery, always designed around a central theme. From 2018’s ‘Heavenly Bodies’ to 2019’s ‘Camp,’ the Met Gala has given us some iconic looks that aren’t falling out of the public consciousness anytime soon… but some fashion fans are concerned that the Gala is losing its reputation as a high-class affair. In 2019, several social media stars attended the Met Gala, Liza Koshy and James Charles among them. These influencers were met with harsh backlash from critics, who felt that the YouTubers weren’t famous enough to earn a spot at the prestigious event. It seems this pattern is repeating itself in 2021, after the Met Gala was canceled in 2020 due to global health concerns. This year, the Gala’s theme is American fashion — and it’s purportedly including some online talent in its troupe. While the Gala does not comment on their guest list prior to the event, as The Costume Institute’s Chief External Relations Officer recently told PageSix, it seems that several leaks have surfaced claiming that TikTok star Addison Rae and YouTuber Emma Chamberlain are among the invitees. A celebrity agent also told PageSix that a slew of other influencers are purportedly attending, which seems to track with the fact that Instagram and Facebook are sponsoring the Gala. Both Rae and Chamberlain have yet to comment on their potential inclusion in the event, but that isn’t stopping commenters from brutally berating them for being invited to the Gala. “I’m just gonna say it, no one wants to see Addison Rae at the met gala,” one commenter tweeted. I’m just gonna say it, no one wants to see Addison Rae at the met gala https://t.co/iJ3nFUa6T2 — Jen💗 (@jenna_lang13) August 18, 2021 “Doja Cat is not invited to the met gala but addison rae is??” another wrote. “WHATT!” https://twitter.com/tiniebeeb/status/1428083440503635976 “Isn’t the met gala meant for art?” another user questioned. “Like a lot of these I get, but Addison Rae? Emma Chamberlain? Are they going to do some dance and wear vaguely thematically related Brandy Melville?” https://twitter.com/tiniebeeb/status/1428083440503635976 It’s clear that viewers aren’t looking forward to seeing more and more influencers taking up spots at an event historically relegated to major celebrities — but as more and more social media moguls break into the mainstream, this could become a trend we see more often in the future, whether we like it or not.

Addison Rae drops hints she may be getting a reality TV show – Dexerto
Addison Rae drops hints she may be getting a reality TV show IG: AddisonRaeeTikTok star and internet celebrity Addison Rae has teased fans over the prospect of a reality TV show starring her and her family. The exponential growth of TikTok has launched a new group of internet celebrities into the public eye. One person who has amassed a major following off the back of the Beijing-based social media site is Addison Rae, the 19-year-old American who, at the time of writing, sits at over 42.8 million followers. She has made her name primarily through dance tutorials, in a similar vein to other TikTok stars like Charli D’Amelio and JoJo Siwa. Away from dance tutorials, it looks like Rae may be on her way to getting her very own reality TV show, alongside her family. In response to a recent TikTok, one fan commented that her family “need to create a show I would watch it non-stop”. Rae replied to the comment with a simple emoji of eyes, but many fans took this as a hint that an idea similar is already in development. To add fuel to the fire, another fan commented that they have a YouTube video idea for Rae, focusing on her family and what they do around making TikTok videos together. In response, Rae commented: “or a whole season?” Obviously the comments do not act as concrete proof a TV show will be on the way, but many took Rae’s responses as suggestions that something similar is currently in the works. Whether it would debut on YouTube or TV is also not clear but, off the back of her incredible TikTok popularity, she has amassed over 2 million subscribers on the video sharing platform. We’ll have to wait and see what, if any, official announcements follow, but we’ll cover them right here on Dexerto.

Addison Rae does WAP TikTok challenge Charli D’Amelio couldn’t – Dexerto
Addison Rae does WAP TikTok challenge Charli D’Amelio couldn’t Instagram: Addison RaeAfter Addison Rae’s mom jokingly threatened to post the draft of Addison dancing to Cardi B’s WAP if she wasn’t nice to her, she has decided to get in there first and post it of her own accord. When Cardi B’s new song WAP featuring Megan Thee Stallion dropped in earlier August, it became almost instantly viral on TikTok. Choreographer Brian Esperon uploaded a dance video to the song, and TikTok users have been doing their level best to replicate it. However, the dance has come with some drawbacks, as given the song’s lyrics, some younger users are finding it tricky to rehearse, record and upload the dance under the watchful eye of their parents. 16-year-old TikTok sensation Charli D’Amelio was no exception, as she tweeted on August 18 “my mom won’t let me post the wap dance, but it’s in my drafts.” In an interview with the Hollywood Fix, Charli said that it’s because the dance is “inappropriate.” my mom won’t let me post the wap dance but it’s in my drafts — charli (@charlidamelio) August 18, 2020 But Addison Rae’s mom took a different approach to her 19-year-old daughter’s WAP draft, saying in a TikTok that “dear Addison Rae… please remember to be nice to your mama… she’s just one small click away from posting her WAP draft. Addison shared the video alongside the caption “omg I love you mom ur the best person ever!!!! Brb going to buy you flowers.” Omg I love u mom ur the best person ever!!!! brb going buy u flowers 🤍🤍🤍🤍🙈🙈🙈 pic.twitter.com/HscxFoyaw8 — Addison Rae (@whoisaddison) August 21, 2020 Clearly the looming threat of her draft emerging gave Addison the push to finally upload it in a post that at the time of writing has over 6.8 million likes and 33 million views. She captioned it “I had to do it before my mom did… goodnight dc.” https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wSDRAgX67q4 While the WAP dance has caused the moms of TikTok to raise their collective brow, it’s certainly pulling in a huge amount of views thanks to Brian Esperon’s captivating choreography.

Addison Rae & Dixie D’Amelio spooked by ‘deepfakes’ of them on TikTok – Dexerto
Addison Rae & Dixie D’Amelio spooked by ‘deepfakes’ of them on TikTok Instagram: Dixie D’Amelio / Instagram: Addison RaeDixie D’Amelio and Addison Rae have hit at ‘deepfake’ videos being posted of the two TikTok superstars. Addison Rae boasts an impressive 60 million followers on TikTok and earns the most money of any TikToker. While she may be a little overshadowed by her little sister Charli, Dixie has still amassed 38 million followers. Addison and Dixie have both been subject to a torrent of hate, abuse, and negative attention since blowing up on the app, something that both creators have spoken up about in the past, whether its to do with false rumors about themselves or other people. Dixie has had to defend her own family and her ex-boyfriend, Griffin Johnson, on Twitter after they faced backlash from false rumors circulating on TikTok and Instagram. Now, deepfake videos of the creators have been circulating on the app, and Dixie has had enough. According to Instagram account ‘TikTokroom’, one deepfake was posted with the caption “Okay imagining how embarrassing it is for Dixie’s parents once they see it.” Dixie commented on the video saying “Yes. It’s a deepfake but still my parents on this app chill” – in all caps. https://www.instagram.com/p/CFLNInEn9f1/ Addison, who herself has also been the target of these ‘deepfakes’, replied to Dixie’s comment, “I can relate to this.” Addison spoke out on persistent internet trolls this week in a tearful Instagram live in which she said: “There are moments when I read things about myself, and I read comments and I read things like that… I can’t sit here and act like has never affected me, because it has.” TikTok has recently taken measures to tackle the rise of deep fakes within the app. In August, the platform said they are explicitly banned and that they are expanding fact-checking partnerships with PolitiFact and Lead Stories.

Addison Rae & Dixie D’Amelio reveal their original TikTok crushes – Dexerto
Addison Rae & Dixie D’Amelio reveal their original TikTok crushes YouTube: Dixie D’AmelioTikTok stars Addison Rae and Dixie D’Amelio are just like anyone else — they have their little hidden crushes. They have shared all though, after Rae appeared on Dixie’s YouTube show to talk about their love lives, and other small talk. Pretty much everyone out there has a crush. Some hide it well, while others…don’t. In the social media sphere, when people are bombarded with content every day from their favorite stars, it’s easy to feel something there. It doesn’t just affect the people who watch on from the sidelines. Once upon a time, all of the creators everyone watches today were just like everyone else. They’d have their own crushes on the hottest stars on their respective platforms. TikTok stars Addison Rae and Dixie D’Amelio broached this subject in a recent Q&A, where D’Amelio posed a question to Rae: “Is there anyone you had a crush on, on TikTok, that you met after you blew up?” Segment begins at 1:06: The request took Rae back a bit. After a bit of hesitation — and a flustered laugh — she eventually managed to spit out an answer. That wasn’t before D’Amelio stole the show though. “Troy Zarba,” the host said. “He was the only person on my For You page before I came out [to Los Angeles]. I didn’t know any of these people.” D’Amelio’s answer had Rae interested. In fact, the two had the exact same crush. “I was going to say that! I definitely had a crush on Troy when I was in college. I remember when I was scrolling through his page because he was super big at the time.” Since the two have gone viral, catapulting into the conscience of every TikTok user, they’ve actually had the chance to meet their crush. However, Rae said the meeting was nothing special — if only to tick off a box on the bucket list. “Before we even met him, we were obsessed with him. We met him, and then we all became really good friends. That’s a thing for anybody though, like, before you meet someone and go ‘oh my gosh I have a crush on them’ and then you meet them and it’s normal,” Rae said. While Zarba is still pretty big on TikTok, he’s nowhere near as popular as Rae and D’Amelio. The duo combined have over 90 million fans on the platform, with Zarba coming in at three million. Nevertheless, getting the chance to brush shoulders with your ultimate crush would be a pretty great experience.

Addison Rae & Dixie D’Amelio get roasted for “basic” Met Gala 2021 looks – Dexerto
Addison Rae & Dixie D’Amelio get roasted for “basic” Met Gala 2021 looks Instagram, @addisonraee, @dixiedamelioSocial media superstars Addison Rae and Dixie D’Amelio attended the 2021 Met Gala, but their red carpet looks have been met with… colorful reactions. Here’s why the internet has decided to roast the two influencers. The Met Gala is a big event. A fundraiser for the Metropolitan Museum of Art, the event costs a lot of money and has, with its annual themed dress code, been home to some of A-list celebrities’ most cherished (and equally scrutinized) outfits. But there was no chainmail Zendaya or gender-fluid Harry Styles on the red carpet in 2021, leading Twitter to seemingly turn TikTok starlets Addison Rae and Dixie D’Amelio into scapegoats. There was already backlash surrounding the possibility that Addison and Dixie would appear, with the former shrugging that heat off and the latter laughing about it with her sister, Charli. And that’s a fortunate experience, because there’s more hate for them to deal with now that they’ve actually attended the prestigious event. it’s officially dixie and addison’s last met gala… pic.twitter.com/dJZ5NMU1E7 — a (@ruezendayaa) September 14, 2021 The theme for this year’s Met Gala was “American Independence,” but social media isn’t upset about the pair’s decisions in that regard. Addison wore Gucci, Dixie wore Valentino, but both definitely brought American energy. Instead, social media platforms like Twitter, Instagram, and TikTok have turned their backs on the pair and focused on how “basic” their looks were. From clowning Addison’s attempted Marilyn Monroe inspiration to noticing her similarities to standard Kardashian holiday garb, people have been particularly unkind to the emerging celebrity. https://twitter.com/shyguy____118/status/1437770408456081408 Addison isn’t the only one catching shots, though. Overall, it’s been a rough day on the internet for two of its biggest and youngest stars. addison rae and dixie d’amelio after coming home from the #metgala and seeing everyone trashing them pic.twitter.com/YhmRbuwE0d — m (@rarebadgley) September 14, 2021 Still, Addison and Dixie haven’t seemed particularly fazed by the judgment. It’s not their fault that Zendaya wasn’t there (as far as we know) and they’ve yet to respond to any of the other mean stuff thrown their way. Addison has mentioned on Instagram that attending the Met Gala was in her dream journal for 2021-22, so there’s a lesson to be learned from all of this: Sometimes, achieving your dreams is another person’s nightmare. Now we just have to wait and see if the Met Gala rookies can up their game in 2022.

Addison Rae, Dixie D’Amelio & Bryce Hall respond to Ariana Grande shade – Dexerto
Addison Rae, Dixie D’Amelio & Bryce Hall respond to Ariana Grande shade Instagram: dixiedamelio, arianagrandeFollowing comments made by Ariana Grande over Halloween parties, many fans think the popstar was calling out some of TikTok’s biggest stars — and now they’ve responded. [jwplayer ZXB9LNVP] With the ongoing global health situation, we’ve seen a lot of stars have to minimize their social activities, but some may have been a little more ignorant of the rules than others. For example, we’ve seen the Sway boys and Bryce Hall facing penalties from the Los Angeles mayor after throwing a multitude of parties. Obviously, Halloween is a huge holiday, and many top stars once again threw some parties or attended one, including in West Hollywood influencer hub Saddle Ranch. At that party, rumors of Bryce Hall and Addison Rae’s on/off relationship were sparked once again, as the pair were caught kissing at the party in their Joker and Harley Quinn costumes, as well as several TikToks posted together. While fans of the couple went into frenzy, there was one celebrity who wasn’t impressed at all: Ariana Grande, who asked “Did we all really need to go to f**king Saddle Ranch that badly that we couldn’t have waited…?” Topic starts at 1:50 Of course, many assume that this was directed at the TikTok and online stars that took to the popular hangout on Halloween, and now some of them have responded. Speaking to Pap Galore, Dixie D’Amelio, Addison and Bryce all offered their opinions on Ariana’s criticism and, interestingly, they all agreed with her. Dixie said that she’s not really sure what to say in response, but says that Ariana is “right” and “a queen.” Similarly, Addison said the criticism was “fair” and that she’s largely been avoiding parties while preparing for her upcoming film, a remake of 90’s classic ‘She’s All That.’ Of course, this does beg the question why TikTok stars are attending these parties if they agree that it’s wrong, but they probably weren’t expecting to be called out by one of the biggest artists in the world while enjoying their nights in Saddle Ranch. It goes without saying that TikTokers weren’t the only ones in Saddle Ranch, or elsewhere celebrating Halloween, as parties went on across the world, so it’s very possible Ariana wasn’t calling them out specifically, but the shoe definitely seems to fit.

Addison Rae deletes lovey-dovey TikTok showing her simp for Bryce Hall – Dexerto
Addison Rae deletes lovey-dovey TikTok showing her simp for Bryce Hall Instagram, @addisonraeeAddison Rae’s massive fan club took notice after she posted a very, very affectionate TikTok about her boo, Bryce Hall, and then quickly deleted it from the app. With great power comes great responsibility; in TikTok terms, 70.4 million followers comes with difficult content decisions. Rae enjoys such a large following and, as such, it’s no surprise that she’s faced with tough choices about what to post and what not to post. Oh, and sometimes, what to post, then decide not to post, and delete. But with so many followers, some obviously noticed when she posted and then quickly made the decision to delete a video showing how much she’s into her current boy. Addison and her beau, Bryce Hall, became official in recent months after a long period of on-and-off speculation. But, nonetheless, it appears that the TikTok starlet does not want to be perceived as too head over heels for her muscled partner. View this post on Instagram In a since-deleted video, the TikTok star quotes a song saying “oh no, I hope I don’t fall,” which then cuts off into a seemingly romantic, slow guitar instrumental. At that point, shirtless Bryce makes an appearance, and…that just might be too much for his girl to handle. With guitars strumming in the background, Hall turns to the camera and shows off a toned physique. Then, Addison completes the video by smiling widely and sticking her tongue out. It’s like she just saw an angel and is absolutely giddy about it. Of course, fans quickly saved the video and shared it to ‘tiktokroom,’ where you can now enjoy the lovebirds in all their glory. View this post on Instagram The video’s sound originates from a Tyler the Creator clip in which he says “oh no, I hope I don’t fall” before jokingly slipping down a set of carpeted stairs. But the suggestion here is likely more along the lines of “oh no, I hope I don’t fall in love.” While Addison might be undecided about letting her fans see any simp behavior, the overwhelming response has been that the couple is adorable. That’s not too surprising though, it’s no secret that her fans have always been big supporters of ‘Braddison.’

Addison Rae deletes her Twitter account and nobody knows why – Dexerto
Addison Rae deletes her Twitter account and nobody knows why Addison Rae, InstagramTikTok star Addison Rae has shocked fans by deleting her Twitter account out of nowhere, raising questions about the reason why. The 22-year-old content creator had a following of almost five million people on the platform before her page disappeared. It is not possible for a new user to claim the account name, which suggests Addison has decided to take a break from the social media website. The decision was taken days before her father Monty Lopez decided to confirm his divorce publicly, from Rae’s mother Sheri Easterling, on November 24. Though, it is not yet known if this affected the decision to walk away from Twitter. Where is Addison Rae’s Twitter account? As of November 24, it appears Addison Rae has deactivated her account on Twitter – which has the username @whoisaddison. She has not updated her fans about the decision, as of yet. According to Social Blade statistics, Addison’s account has been slightly on the decline, losing approximately 40,000 followers since June 2021. Fans of the TikTok star have been taken back by the news, with one posting: “Addison Rae deactivated her Twitter this is the worst day of my life.” Others have been left gutted by the news that the Addison Rae official account has stopped following them back. The influencer is still on some social media platforms, as her Instagram account remains active, at the time of writing.

Addison Rae appears to cry after being grilled about Bryce Hall cheating rumors – Dexerto
Addison Rae appears to cry after being grilled about Bryce Hall cheating rumors Instagram: @addisonraeeAddison Rae appeared to break down and cry after the paparazzi grilled her about rumors that Bryce Hall cheated on her. Celebrity power couple Bryce Hall and Addison Rae have had a tough week. It all started when rumors about their relationship being fake circulated on the internet after the two of them were spotted on different tables in the same cafe. Then, it snowballed into full-blown cheating claims, which Bryce Hall denied. However, the paparazzi have been relentless in their pursuit of comments on the situation. Bryce snapped at them and urged them to stop filming. But the paparazzi don’t know when to call it quits. They turned their attention onto Addison instead, bombarding her with questions on the street even after she told them she didn’t want to talk about it, which seemingly made her cry. “Hey Addison, how’s it going?” asked the paparazzi. “Are the rumors true that Bryce cheated [on you] with some girl?” “I don’t think I want to talk about anything to do with, umm…” she replied. However, the paparazzi cut her off and pressed the issue. “What? To do with Bryce? Do you know this girl? Like, do you talk to her at all? Do you know who she is? Is there still hope for Braddison, or is Braddisson done? Is Dixison better than Braddison, do you think?” Addison didn’t respond. Instead, she bowed her head down and placed her palm over her face. It looked like she was wiping some tears away. However, the paparazzi kept on hounding her. “Do you think there’s hope for TikTok?” they asked. “Will TikTok ever be the same if there’s no Braddison?” Eventually, she made it into her car. But it looked like she broke down in tears before taking off. Not long after, the paparazzi turned their attention to Bryce Hall. “Did you cheat on Addison?” they asked. ‘Are the cheating rumors true? Any comments on the situation?” “Can you please just stop bothering me?” said Bryce. “Addison was crying today,” said the paparazzi. “She seemed upset by it.” “You bothered her,” said Bryce, as he hopped into a van and drove off. He thinks them pressing the matter is what triggered her, and maybe he’s right. Either way, Addison’s fans are ticked off about the incident. They flooded the video with comments supporting her and told the paparazzi to lay off the questions, especially since she clearly said she didn’t want to answer. Neither Addison nor Bryce has commented further on the situation. Until then, we’ll have to wait and see how it plays out.

Addison Rae sparks controversy after she’s “exposed” talking to Trump by the NELK Boys – Dexerto
Addison Rae sparks controversy after she’s “exposed” talking to Trump by the NELK Boys Instagram, Addison Rae. Pixabay, Donald TrumpOne of TikTok’s most popular stars, Addison Rae, has come under scrutiny once again after being seen chatting to former President Donald Trump at the Ultimate Fighting Championship (UFC). In a YouTube video posted to the NELK boys’ channel, Rae can be seen talking to the former President saying “hi” and that it’s “so nice to meet [him].” This is after the NELK boys themselves had amicably chatted to the former President and made small talk. Addison Rae was attending the UFC fight between McGregor and Poirier, and was seated alongside the NELK Boys in some of the best seats in the house. As they were seated in such a desirable spot, there were countless big names and recognizable faces around them. NELK Boys uploaded the clip with the title “Donald Trump Is Smashing Addison Rae!” Topic starts at 23:16 After Rae talks with Trump, several of the NELK boys make crude comments about Rae’s reason for approaching him. Addison Rae’s ‘Republican’ controversy Addison Rae has previously gotten into hot water on the subject of Trump. In September 2020, a viral TikTok appeared to show Rae had registered as a Republican three times in 2014, 2016 and 2018. The video, which racked up more than a million views, prompted a response from Rae. In a TikTok comment at the time, Rae said: “This isn’t real hahahaha. First I’m from Louisiana, second I’m not even registered to vote and never have been I’m actually doing it for the first time with someone important and I’m excited to do so. This is fake.” Twitter users also believed they saw a Trump 2020 flag in a photo Rae posted. However, Rae was quick to disprove this pointing it was an Old Navy souvenir. my meme used to buy us these for my papas bday (July 4th) a good 2010 souvenir pic.twitter.com/6ROj0JcGyy — Addison Rae (@whoisaddison) August 27, 2020 This also wasn’t Rae’s only controversy at the UFC. The TikTok star came under fire for reporting at the event despite only studying broadcast journalism for three months. Rae later responded to the criticism. Twitter reacts to Addison meeting Trump Similar to when rumors first circulated that Rae might support Trump, some people were disappointed that Rae was so friendly to the former President. steals from black creators and coddles white supremacists? are we really surprised? pic.twitter.com/TkZXAAJR9f — estelle (@chi_townrusher) July 13, 2021 Others saw the irony that Rae was so happy to greet Trump when he had tried to ban TikTok in the US while President. Rae was at one point the highest-paid TikToker. Does Addison not remember that at one point he tried to abolish tiktok? Smh😩 — billylilly000 (@billyli96919002) July 13, 2021 Other fans were surprised too that Rae could just approach Trump at the event and tap him on the shoulder. As a former President, he has Secret Service protection. That’s what I said! The man doesn’t have secret service or what??? — Judith Garcia (@JudithAnnn) July 13, 2021 Addison Rae has not yet commented on the situation on her social media channels.

Addison Rae concerns fans after posting emotional TikToks – Dexerto
Addison Rae concerns fans after posting emotional TikToks YouTube: Addison Rae[jwplayer ksH6zuKH]TikTok star Addison Rae might be one of the biggest faces on the platform, but that doesn’t stop the influencer from receiving a fair amount of criticism — and it seems the hate is taking a major toll on her. Addison Rae is one of TikTok’s top content creators, reportedly earning the most money out of any other influencer on the platform and even being one of the app’s most-followed personalities. In spite of her bubbly attitude and cheerful selfies, Rae seems to be a favorite target for internet critics, most notably coming under fire over a video she’d reposted years ago that called the Black Lives Matter movement a “cult.” Considering the brutal nature of TikTok commentary, it comes as little surprise that users also hit back at the star for dancing to a song about eating disorders for a sponsored post and later accused her of using a racial slur — and things are continuing to build up after her recent split with ex-boyfriend Bryce Hall. Following their public breakup in early September, Rae claimed she was “losing friends” due to the criticism and speculation surrounding her love life, after fans piled on a certain Instagram photo by Troy Zarba that appeared to be taken at her home. Rae has since uploaded two separate videos to her spam account, which both featured concerning captions that are sparking some debate among TikTok users. “I feel like lately I’ve been trying my best at everything, and it’s just not enough,” Rae wrote in one video. “When your head and your heart are telling you two different things, which one do you choose, and did it end up being a good choice?” “I always try not to let myself cry because I feel too vulnerable or weak, but I literally need to cry right now because I’ve held it in for so long,” she captioned another video. Since these videos have come to light, fans are voicing their concern for the TikToker, with many noting the egregious hate Rae has received over the past few months. Rae’s videos follow similar instances from names like Twitch star Alinity, who finally broke down during a July broadcast, admitting that the constant hate she receives had made her consider harmful actions. No matter the situation, it’s always good to remember that influencers are still people — even if you only see them from behind a screen.

Addison Rae comes forward with apology following racism allegations – Dexerto
Addison Rae comes forward with apology following racism allegations Addison Rae, YouTube[jwplayer ksH6zuKH] TikTok star Addison Rae went silent on social media following allegations of racist behavior from critics, and has finally addressed the controversy with a public apology regarding the claims against her. Addison Rae is one of TikTok’s top creators and a former competitive dancer, boasting over 49 million followers on the viral video app thanks to her popular dancing and lipsyncing videos. However, the influencer has come under fire in past weeks due to multiple allegations of problematic behavior from viewers, with the star reportedly posting a link to a video where a woman spoke about the Black Lives Matter movement — which she dubbed a “cult.” This fault acts as the cherry on top of a slew of other accusations against Rae, which follow outrage after the star danced to a song discussing eating disorders and admitted to liking comments shading Charli D’Amelio before the two had become friends. After taking a few days away from social media — during which fans and critics alike were desperate to know of her whereabouts — Rae has finally broken her silence, posting an apology to her Twitter profile on July 8. “I owe all of you an apology,” the statement reads. “Four years ago, I reposted a video which included a woman sharing her thoughts on Black Lives Matter and All Lives Matter that I should not have.” “Because of my privilege, I didn’t understand and wasn’t educated enough on the social injustices facing the Black community. All lives CANNOT matter until Black lives do.” Rae ended her message by promising to use her platform to “work on becoming a better ally” — but it seems that not everyone is pleased with her statement. Critics have taken issue with the star releasing her apology for years after she shared the video, as well as not addressing other allegations standing against her. it’s too late, you ignored the situation for a month and only apologized once more people caught you. It should have been addressed immediately and I’ve lost all respect for you. — Bessem (@bessemtakang) July 8, 2020 While Addison has yet to make an official return to social media, all fans can do is watch and wait for one of TikTok’s biggest personalities to make her next move.

Addison Rae clarifies ‘2 Die 4’ lyrics after TikTok gets them seriously wrong – Dexerto
Addison Rae clarifies ‘2 Die 4’ lyrics after TikTok gets them seriously wrong Instagram, Addison RaeAddison Rae’s latest pop song ‘2 Die 4’ has confused a lot of her fans with the lyrics – prompting a response from the TikTok star. The two-minute bop features a catchy chorus, in which some of the words were apparently not very clear to listeners. Some videos have gone viral on social media, with some users convinced she’s said something pretty spicy in the song. On July 13, Rae finally cleared any confusion regarding the track, sharing a tweet to her 4.9 million followers. She said the official lyrics are actually “boom boom bass, 2 die 4.” Addison Rae fans mishear ‘2 Die 4’ lyrics in viral TikToks Prior to this revelation, several fans were singing the song wrong on TikTok, some coming up with lyrics they claim to have heard. Take a look at these: TikTok user christyskindacool misheard “this boom boom bass to die for” as “this pum pum bass, to die for”. In case you didn’t know, “pum pum” is slang for female genitals. While the song is a little raunchy, these words are definitely not mentioned. That hasn’t stopped this type of clip going viral, though. TikTok star EHIZ, who has over 12 million followers, also reacted to the part that many have misheard. The actor is seen vibing with the song, before losing it when the line “this boom boom bass, to die for” is sung. The video has over 300,000 likes, at the time of writing. Another TikTok user, by the name of iced.kiki, was looking less than amused during the line that caused confusion. Her facial expressions mirror many people’s reactions when they first heard the song. Luckily, we now know the official lyrics, and everyone can enjoy the pop bop that is 2 Die 4!

Addison Rae claims she’s “losing friends” over Troy Zarba dating rumors – Dexerto
Addison Rae claims she’s “losing friends” over Troy Zarba dating rumors YouTube: Addison Rae / Instagram: zarbruh[jwplayer ksH6zuKH]TikTok star Addison Rae has officially broken things off with former beau and Sway House member Bryce Hall — but fans are already pairing her with another guy, and Rae claims the speculation is harming her personal life. Addison Rae and Bryce Hall became the internet’s most talked-about couple since the impromptu marriage between Tana Mongeau and Jake Paul last year, although these TikTok lovebirds weren’t ever actually “together.” Appearing in each others videos and social media posts, it certainly seemed like the two were dating on the down-low: but both Hall and Rae claimed that there was nothing official between them. However, on September 3, Rae confirmed that she and Hall had broken off their purported romance for good, with both parties publishing a series of tweets further affirming their split. Fans have since begun to pair Addison Rae with TikToker Troy Zarba mere days later, who was seen posing for a photo at Rae’s home shortly after her breakup with Hall — and it isn’t boding well for her personal affairs. Rae spoke out on the issue in a series of Instagram comments on September 7, writing, “The fact I’m losing friendships over this makes me so upset.” “I’ve been friends with Troy since August,” she continued. “Did y’all not see my NYC vlog? Haha, also, do y’all not hang out with your friends or should I just not have them?” https://www.instagram.com/p/CE2n8gwHgRm/?utm_source=ig_web_copy_link This statement bodes similar to her previous tweets following her split with Hall, where she wrote, “Stop forcing friendships into relationships.” Thus far, fans are divided as to Addison’s response to the drama, both hoping for a new romantic prospect for their favorite TikToker while also begging critics to stop obsessing over her love life. stop forcing friendships into relationships 😜😜😜❤️❤️❤️❤️ — Addison Rae (@whoisaddison) September 7, 2020 Although she’s in the public eye, it can’t be easy having all your interactions placed under a microscope — especially after TikToker Nessa Barrett hit back at paparazzi for filming her during an emotional moment at dinner. It seems like Addison continues to steal the social media spotlight, for good or ill — but there’s no denying the stress stars feel when placed under the intense pressure of fans in every aspect of their lives.

Addison Rae & Charly Jordan back Idris Elba’s call for social media ID verification – Dexerto
Addison Rae & Charly Jordan back Idris Elba’s call for social media ID verification Instagram: Addison Rae. Charly Jordan / YouTube: WIREDTikTok stars Addison Rae and Charly Jordan are speaking out in support of actor Idris Elba’s comments on social media verification in wake of a viral UK petition on the subject. In the age of social media, anyone can anonymously create an account and post just about anything they want — a privilege that can lead to negative outcomes, as seen in instances of harassment, bullying, and even impersonation. This issue came to the forefront of public conversation last week, after netizens flocked to sign a U.K. petition calling for users to provide ID before signing up for any form of social media. This occurred after English football stars received a slew of racial abuse online after the country’s loss to Italy in the Euro 2020 tournament. While the U.K. government has passed on the petition previously, over 300,000 people have signed it — and it doesn’t look like the topic has fallen out of the public consciousness, just yet. Wow! Look how many of you have now signed my #trackatroll petition! Thank you all so much! ❤🐸🌈https://t.co/XCXj9J6sde pic.twitter.com/NiBTMECOrD — Katie Price (@KatiePrice) July 12, 2021 British A-List actor, rapper, producer and writer Idris Elba posted a heartfelt statement to social media reinforcing the idea, arguing that “social media is like boarding a plane and not having to show I.D.” “If cowards are being supported by a veil of privacy and secrecy, then social media is not a safe space,” he wrote. “It is an aeroplane that allows travelers to wear balaclavas. If cowards want to spout racial rhetoric, then say it with your name — not your username.” View this post on Instagram It seems that quite a few high-profile influencers are on board with this sentiment, including the likes of Addison Rae and Charly Jordan, who reposted Elba’s statement to their Instagram stories and tagged him. View this post on Instagram Both Rae and Jordan have been outspoken in the past regarding harassment and bullying on TikTok; Jordan claimed she received comments encouraging her to harm herself after sharing a video of herself singing in May, while Addison Rae has hit back at “hurtful” body-shaming comments multiple times throughout her career. While it’s uncertain if world governments will enact an ID system for social media anytime soon, it’s clear that public platforms certainly have a harassment problem — and stars are speaking out in hopes that something will change.

Addison Rae & Charli XCX reveal how they used exclusive celebrity dating app Raya – Dexerto
Addison Rae & Charli XCX reveal how they used exclusive celebrity dating app Raya Instagram: Charli XCX, Addison RaeAddison Rae joined singer Charli XCX on her BBC podcast ‘Best Song Ever’ to discuss her favorite songs and both celebrities offered some insight into their use of the celebrity dating app ‘Raya’. Everyone’s been obsessed with hit TikToker Addison Rae since she blew up on TikTok last year and recently who she might be dating. Rumors have been circling lately after Rae appeared to kiss Omer Fedi in public only increasing fan’s interest more. Addison Rae appeared on Charli XCX’s podcast, released on August 16, and teased that the duo would discuss “sad boys on dating apps.” The podcast discusses each guest’s favorite songs from ones at funerals, falling in love, and would dance to when they were ten years old. The pair know each other from dancing together on TikTok to collaborating on new music. The two celebrities got on the topic of ‘Raya’ when Rae said her favorite song to cry to was “River” by Leon Bridges. Rae said she’d first heard the song in the hit show ‘Big Little Lies’. Rae said the song “always made me sad” as she associates it to a specific time in her life. However, Charli XCX, whose real name is Charlotte Emma Aitchison, said that she associated it with the dating app ‘Raya’. Rae and Charli XCX’s experience on Raya ‘Raya’ is a dating app for those in the entertainment industry and you have to be referred to by a current member. It now also has features for professional networking. Read more: Who is Addison Rae dating? – Aitchison described the app as “a little bit bougie and annoying” before Rae added that you have to “pick a song for your profile.” Aitchison went onto say that when she was on the app, she “always remember seeing these boys and this song would be their song”. Rae was shocked to hear this saying “that’s insane”. She went onto say that she “never came across” boys who had the song on their profile and added that she used to have the app. She said from her experience, people’s songs were “the Rolling Stones or the Beatles” in an attempt to show they listened to “a spectrum of music”. The pair agreed though that they would often see a lot of Drake on profiles. Charli XCX’s podcast ‘Best Song Ever’ is available through BBC Sounds. Episodes are available through Spotify and Apple Podcasts though the episode featuring Rae will not available until next week for those who cannot access BBC Sounds. In the rest of the podcast, Rae talked about “crying a lot” and being an emotional person.

On the topic of viral songs on TikTok, Rae said her favorite song was ‘Dreams’ by Fleetwood Mac.

Addison Rae & Bryce Hall’s relationship timeline – are they together? – Dexerto
Addison Rae & Bryce Hall’s relationship timeline – are they together? Instagram: Bryce HallAddison Rae and Bryce Hall, known by some as ‘Braddison,’ have certainly sparked the internet’s curiosity. The TikTok stars’ on-again-off-again relationship has been confusing, to say the least, but fans remain invested in the pair’s journey. Here’s a rundown of the key moments. October and November 2019 Bryce and Addison began to spark fan theories when they started collaborating on TikToks together. While their videos were lighthearted, the pair were seen to be getting rather close, lip-syncing to TikTok sounds about relationships, leaving fans of both stars in a frenzy. January 2020 After months of speculation, Bryce seemed to confirm that there was something going on between the pair when he posted a series of Instagram pictures of “new years kisses” with several of his guy friends. The final picture was him and Addison. However things were made slightly confusing later in the month on January 30 when Bryce tweeted that “Addison and I are NOT dating! She’s doing her own thing and I’m doing mine. we’re still friends and plan to remain that way!” seemingly putting a stop to the rumors fuelled by their flirty TikToks. addison and i are NOT dating!!! she’s doing her own thing and im doing mine. we’re still friends and plan to remain that way!! i still love her and we’re still gonna hang n stuff but, we’re just not gonna be kissy kissy anymore.. btw, neither of us are punching the air 😦 — Bryce Hall (@BryceHall) January 30, 2020 April 2020 Despite the pair no longer being together, Bryce still managed to melt hearts with stories about Addison when he claimed in an interview that she is “the best girl I’ve ever had” but still explained that there’s “nothing going on between them” and they’re still just friends. May 2020 While rumors they were getting back together bubbled under the surface, Addison’s mom Sheri responded to a comment claiming the pair seeing each other again with a blunt “they are not together.” July 2020 After months of posting TikToks together again, Bryce confirmed on the Mom’s Basement podcast that he and Addison were “testing the waters. We were kind of a thing, back in November. We were busy — super busy. And then quarantine happened. Less busy. That’s all. …It’s hard to find somebody out in LA, especially.” The comment seemed to be a good indication that the pair were involved with each other in some respect, though it was far from confirmation of a relationship. August 2020 Following Addison deleting a picture of her and Bryce, along with a series of cryptic tweets from both stars, many fans assumed the pair had broken things off for good. The pair also decided to take things offline, with Addison posting a picture of them in a car with the caption “Handling things privately and off social media just like you guys said.” https://twitter.com/whoisaddison/status/1290417899572563968 September 2020 In an interview with Entertainment Tonight, Addison confirmed what many fans had suspected. “There was a lot of times when we were on, we were off, and it was kind of just a confusing situation,” she explained. “Right now we’re just kind of both deciding that there are a lot of things going on in both of our lives that we really need to focus on.” Topic starts at 0:22 She finished by saying that “at the end of the day, we’re both still wishing the best for each other, and still friends.” November 2020 Just as it was looking as though Braddison was done for good, fan theories fired back up again when the pair posted images of them working out together, with one picture even showing Bryce kissing Addison’s head. The pair also shared some adorable Halloween snaps, and were even caught sharing a kiss outside Saddle Ranch by the Hollywood Fix, leaving fans stunned. Topic starts at 7:10 However, on November 30 Addison and Bryce finally announced to the world that they’re in a committed relationship in an adorable YouTube video and a series of professional romantic Instagram pictures. The pair revealed that they actually dated twice, but their first romantic stint was short-lived, with Addison breaking things off after only three days. But this time, the couple has already lasted much longer. Addison said Bryce asked her to be his girlfriend on October 13, and they’ve been going strong ever since. March 2021 While things had been going well for the TikTok couple, regularly posting adorable content featuring each other, they had a bump in the road when rumors that Bryce had cheated on Addison emerged through a series of texts that went viral. Addison also tweeted some cryptic comments prior to that such as, “disappointed but not surprised,” leading some fans to worry that something had happened between the pair. This eventually lead to Bryce tweeting a simple, “I didn’t cheat on Addison,” which seemed to quell some of the rumors. But many continued to flood Bryce’s comment section on TikTok criticizing him. Addison spoke out a few days later, choosing to address some of the hate that had been circulating as a result of the rumors. “I love y’all and I’m always so grateful for the kind words and support you show me,” she wrote. “Sharing my life with y’all makes me happy, but some things I choose to handle offline.” She continued by saying, “when, and if, I want to share, I will make that decision,” reminding fans that “hate is never the answer.” March 2021 Fans were shocked after Addison revealed in a March 25 paparazzi interview with Shooting Stars TV that she and Bryce had broken up, saying, “No, we are not [together], but I wish him the very best,” going on to say, “he’s amazing, and I think we both are doing great things in our lives.” Bryce uploaded his own video about the situation shortly after, confirming that they were no longer together, and had split around a month prior. He told fans that he didn’t cheat on Addison, despite the rumors that have been circulating online. On the reason for the breakup, he explained, “Both of us are going through a ****ton of things right now behind the scenes that we don’t want necessarily comfortably want to talk about to a camera, especially. With all that stress, we mutually decided that it would be best to part ways.” It’s unclear whether the pair will get back together in the future, but they’ve made it apparent that they wish the best for each other.

Addison Rae & Bryce Hall spark engagement rumors after cryptic ring post – Dexerto
Addison Rae & Bryce Hall spark engagement rumors after cryptic ring post YouTube: Bryce HallTikTok’s hottest couple, Addison Rae and Bryce Hall, have sparked rumors that they might be getting engaged after Addison flexed a flashy ring on Instagram. Bryce and Addison — affectionately referred to as ‘Braddison’ by shippers — are two of TikTok’s most popular content creators, who were long rumored to be secretly dating despite their repeated denial to the contrary. However, on November 30, the two finally confirmed that they are officially dating, and have been together for nearly two months (although they did break up earlier this year after just three days together). Since their surprise announcement, they haven’t held back with their lovey-dovey social media posts about each other, complete with cuddly, PDA-filled TikToks. And of course, while both creators are still so young, fans of the couple are eager for more content – especially if they decide to tie the knot in the future. On Thursday, January 14, Addison was spotted by paparazzi leaving XIV Karats LTD jewelry store in Beverly Hills – and later on, posted a picture of a new sparkly ring on her ring finger to her Instagram story, leaving fans in a frenzy over what it might mean. Typically, an engagement ring is worn on the ring finger of the left hand, and with the way the picture was taken, it does look like it’s on her left hand. Read More: Best sea shanty TikToks – However, while it has prompted speculation that the pair are or could potentially be getting engaged, discussion on drama Instagram account TikTokroom heavily suggests that the pair are getting each other promise rings, instead. This is something that several famous TikTok couples have done to show their commitment to each other, including Cynthia Parker and Quinton Griggs, as well as Alex Warren and Kouvr Annon, so it wouldn’t be so surprising if this is the case. Either way, Bryce and Addison are clearly about as lovey-dovey as they could possibly be at this point, and engagement ring or not, the pair look like they’re in it for the long-haul.

Addison Rae & Bryce Hall shock fans with surprise Omegle meet – Dexerto
Addison Rae & Bryce Hall shock fans with surprise Omegle meet YouTube: Bryce HallTikTok stars Addison Rae and Bryce Hall recently revealed that they are back together after months of speculation, and decided to jump on Omegle to surprise their biggest fans (and haters), with hilarious results. It took a long time for confirmation to be made, but in November 2020 the two TikTokers made their relationship official and fans across the world shared their opinions, good or bad, on them getting back together. They are somewhat of a divisive couple, with Addison being in the good books of just about everyone who knows her and Bryce regularly causing trouble — including beefing with Atlanta rapper Lil Yachty over him mentioning Rae in a song. So, they decided to surprise fans on Omegle to see what they really thought of them, and got some very funny responses. For those unaware, Omegle essentially matches you up with other users around the world for a live video chat, usually with some kind of common interest between the two users. In a video posted to YouTube by Bryce, they stayed off-screen while they matched with people who were asked what they think of ‘Braddison,’ before jumping out and surprising the viewers. While many were huge fans and couldn’t believe they were even real, there were some more confrontational fans, such as one who said he would fight Bryce Hall for Addison Rae — and was promptly made to eat his words when the couple appeared on screen. Segment starts at 1:28 One fan even looked closer to tears when Bryce and Addison appeared in the shot to tell her that they love her which, regardless of how you feel about the couple, is heartwarming to see as the fans get to speak with people they look up to. Bryce might not be interested in fighting a fan for Addison’s affection, but he has recently suggested he would fight both Lil Yachty and the Ace Family’s Austin McBroom, who seems to be embroiled in beef with Hall and both Logan and Jake Paul at the same time.

Addison Rae & Bryce Hall fuel dating rumors with flirty TikTok – Dexerto
Addison Rae & Bryce Hall fuel dating rumors with flirty TikTok YouTube: Addison Rae / Bryce HallTikTok stars Addison Rae and Bryce Hall officially called their relationship quits in August, but it looks like this on-again, off-again couple might be getting back together, as hinted at by a particularly flirty TikTok they filmed. [jwplayer ZXB9LNVP] Bryce Hall and Addison Rae — popularly referred to by shippers as “Braddison” — began an undercover romance last year, after the two began to appear in each other’s TikToks and other social media posts. Despite their apparent closeness, they never confirmed nor denied their relationship until summer of this year, giving conflicting answers. According to Bryce, they were merely “testing the waters,” but Rae was adamant that they were not seeing each other, at all. The two broke up shortly thereafter, settling things “off social media,” as told by a humorous photo they posted to Twitter. However, they may have gotten back together — at least, fans are speculating as much, thanks to a recent TikTok they uploaded. On October 19, Addison and Bryce appeared in a new video, where they danced together to Redfoo’s ‘New Thang,’ the choreography for which was just flirty enough to spark new dating rumors among their fanbase. That’s not all; the two even completed a workout circuit together during Addison’s new YouTube video (which, of course, included a few TikTok dances in the fitness montage that ensued). Hall even left a cheeky comment on the video, writing, “I like your workout routine.” Needless to say, fans are more than ready to dub them a couple once again — a theory that celebrity photographer Kevin Wong is also convinced of, noting that they have been going out to grab dinner recently (as well as leaving together). However, there are quite a few viewers who are asking fans to stay out of their relationship, with many finding a parallel between “Braddison” and Charli D’Amelio and Chase Hudson’s own not-relationship. “Why can’t friends hang out?” one user said of the situation. “Okay, I get that Addison and Bryce are exes, but why can’t they be friends and hang out? They made up, they’re cool, and they hang out!” Needless to say, it seems like “Braddison” is confusing as ever — and there’s no telling if they’ll ever confirm whatever they’ve got going on to their fans.

Addison Rae & Bryce Hall fuel breakup rumors with cryptic tweets – Dexerto
Addison Rae & Bryce Hall fuel breakup rumors with cryptic tweets Twitter: Addison Rae[jwplayer ksH6zuKH]TikTok stars Addison Rae and Bryce Hall have been a popular item among fans for quite some time — and although they haven’t become exclusive, ‘Braddison’ might be over for good before it could officially begin. Bryce Hall and Addison Rae have been appearing in each other’s TikToks and other social media posts since fall 2019, with the two even indulging in open PDA, fueling rumors of a secret romance. However, in spite of their obvious affection for each other, both Bryce and Addison have been adamant that they are not dating, but have merely gone out on dates with each other and were “testing the waters.” Although taking things slow certainly isn’t a bad idea for the fast-paced lives of social media stars, ‘Braddison’ was definitely one of the internet’s most confusing pairings to date — but it seems that their relationship has already gone under. https://www.instagram.com/p/CDNP07thbTm/?utm_source=ig_web_copy_link In a paparazzi video on August 2, Addison was confronted by Bryce, who asked her why she’d deleted a photo of them. Seeming to brush him off, Rae replied, “Sometimes, a girl’s gotta do what a girl’s gotta do,” leading fans to wonder if the two hadn’t broken things off. (Topic begins at 1:29) Speculation sparked further after both TikTokers published a series of cryptic tweets, with Hall writing, “Watch how fast I can not give a f***,” quickly followed by, “Here’s the answer: I already don’t give one.” here’s the answer: already don’t give one https://t.co/fUjDMOZWmE — Bryce Hall (@BryceHall) August 3, 2020 “No one knows the full story to anything, and luckily, I choose not to put every detail on the internet, so please respect me and my feelings,” Rae Tweeted. “Nothing’s confusing, it was explained privately.” no one knows the full story to anything and luckily i choose not to put every detail on the internet so please respect me and my feelings. nothings confusing, it was explained privately — Addison Rae (@whoisaddison) August 3, 2020 The two later shared a photo sitting in a car together, with the caption, “Handling things privately and off social media just like you guys said.” https://twitter.com/whoisaddison/status/1290417899572563968?s=20 “Look at us being semi-mature,” Hall wrote of their meeting. While there’s no telling exactly what went down between the TikTokers, it doesn’t seem like they’re romantically involved anymore — if they ever were, to begin with. Luckily for them, it seems like they took care of their issues privately and away from the eyes of prying paparazzi, although it seems the real story behind ‘Braddison’ will forever remain a mystery.

Addison Rae & Bryce Hall finally reveal their relationship status – Dexerto
Addison Rae & Bryce Hall finally reveal their relationship status YouTube: Addison RaeBryce Hall and Addison Rae have been at the center of TikTok dating rumors since last year, and while they never officially revealed if they were dating or not, fans weren’t convinced there wasn’t a romance going on — and it turns out, they were right (well, sort of). For those not in the loop, Bryce Hall and Addison Rae are two of the biggest names on TikTok. Boasting a combined 86 million followers on the viral video app, the two became even more famous after they started getting cozy in each other’s videos in fall of 2019. However, things seemed to be on again, off again for the highly-speculated couple, who never let slip if they were actually dating when fans started asking questions. Rae even adamantly denied that she and Hall were an item, although Hall himself claimed they were “testing the waters” during an episode of Logan Paul’s ‘imPaulsive’ podcast. View this post on Instagram Now, a year later, the two have FINALLY revealed what’s been going on for them this entire time — and it turns out, they are officially a couple! Rae spilled the beans during a Q&A-turned-workout session on November 30 when she decided to answer the question “everyone’s been wondering” about. According to the TikToker, she and Hall have actually dated twice — although their first romantic stint was decidedly short-lived, with Addison breaking things off after only three days (which resulted in some awkward encounters on the street as filmed by paparazzi). View this post on Instagram “We’ve only broken up one time,” Addison revealed. “That was because we dated for three days — it is true, I know I denied that. We did date for three days one time, and then I broke up with him. After Bryce’s little mishap, then we started talking every day and hanging out again. We ended things again, talking, after his birthday. I didn’t say a word to you, remember? And then we saw each other at places and I would just not talk to you.” (Topic begins at 4:30) “After that, after the birthday scandal, he bought me a gift and wrote me a letter for my birthday,” she continued, wrapping up her boo in a hug. “It was really sweet. …he asked me out October 13 to be his girlfriend. This is our second time dating.” Well there, you have it: after a short-lived stint, the two are finally back together, marking almost two months of their romance at the time of writing. Braddison shippers, rejoice — TikTok’s star couple is back and better than ever!

Addison Rae brushes off Met Gala invite backlash with cheeky message to fans – Dexerto
Addison Rae brushes off Met Gala invite backlash with cheeky message to fans YouTube: The Hollywood FixThe Met Gala is making its grand return in September, but not everyone is happy with the rumored invitees, one of which is TikTok star-turned-actress Addison Rae. Addison Rae is a huge celebrity in the social media world, and she’s slowly but surely making her way into the mainstream. First cracking the ceiling of TikTok fame in 2019, Rae has gone on to accrue an impressive 82 million fans on the app, as well as gaining 36 million Instagram followers. However, she’s more than an influencer; Rae also scored a starring role in the upcoming Netflix film ‘He’s All That,’ and has launched her very own makeup line, Item Beauty, which she promotes whenever she’s not kicking back with the Kardashians. Addison Rae Met Gala backlash Despite these great strides in her career, Rae has received an ample amount of backlash after reports claimed she and YouTuber Emma Chamberlain received purported invites to the 2021 Met Gala — a prestigious event usually reserved for the super-elite of music, movies, and fashion. Many critics have expressed that influencers simply aren’t famous enough to attend such a high-class affair, while others don’t feel that their fashion sense is up to snuff. While promoting her Item Beauty brand at Sephora stores on August 19, Rae was approached by paparazzi from the Hollywood Fix, who asked her for a response to the ongoing backlash against her purported presence at the Gala next month. Instead, one of her crew members answered for her, who humorously shouted, “Shop Item Beauty!” Rae laughed at this and echoed the sentiment as she piled into her van alongside her entourage, before turning toward the cameras and thanking her fans for their support. “Anyone who supports me, I love you, and thank you for everything,” she said, blowing a kiss at the paps. “It means the world, and I couldn’t do this without you guys!” It seems that Addison is altogether unbothered by the current criticism, and refuses to even give it the time of day… but that isn’t stopping internet commenters from throwing their two cents into the fray, anyway. The Met Gala itself has been met with an equal amount of scrutiny, as a number of influencers have reportedly been invited to the event, which is being sponsored by none other than Facebook and Instagram. Ultimately, the entire scenario all depends on what look Addison decides to wear to the Gala — but it’s unclear whether or not she’ll give haters a pleasant surprise, no matter how great her outfit is.

It appears that Addison Rae got wind of the flirty posts, and while she didn’t comment on the situation directly, she jokingly posted a photo of herself hugging a grinning Hall while she pouted. Seemingly making sure Ava knew where Hall stood, she captioned the photo as “mine.” As well as commenting on Rae’s photo affirming that she’s his “baby forever”, Hall posted a photo of the two of his own around the same time. View this post on Instagram However, even this didn’t seem to deter Ava, as she commented on Rae’s post offering to “share” Hall, remarking that she thinks Addison is “hot” too. With drama page TikTok Room updating fans on the situation, it didn’t take long for celebrity columnist Perez Hilton to weigh in on the situation, as he suggested that Ava Louise was “a better fit” for Hall than Rae was. This in turn attracted the attention of Bryce Hall’s mom, Leah Hall, who was quick to call out Hilton for his comment by asking him: “Why would you say that?”. View this post on Instagram Given the bizarre nature of the messages Ava was sharing, fans began to suspect that her Instagram account had been hacked. As well as posting about Bryce Hall, the account also referred to other TikTok stars like Tony Lopez and Dixie D’Amelio.

While Ava appeared to rebuke claims that she had been hacked – saying in an Instagram comment that she was “not hacked, just h***y” – fans remain unconvinced.

Addison Rae beach video breaks internet for TikTok handstand challenge – Dexerto
Addison Rae beach video breaks internet for TikTok handstand challenge Addison Rae, InstagramAddison Rae has finally joined the viral TikTok handstand challenge and fans can’t get enough of the beach video. The trend, which involves users either performing a standard handstand or balancing solely on their head, has over one billion views on the platform. Popular creators have been chiming in with their own adaptations, including Charli D’Amelio, threedotcorey, and a number of others. On June 14, up stepped Addison Rae and her fans are going wild for it. Addison Rae TikTok handstand challenge video During a trip to the Bahamas, the ‘He’s All That’ Netflix movie star tried her luck with the TikTok handstand challenge, with a twist. With a glorious beach in the background, Rae planted herself on her head to complete the handstand, before bending backward into a position not many people would be able to safely pull off. The clip has been viewed over 21 million times, making it her most-watched of the year and best performing since April 2022. In the comments, people were in disbelief about how she pulled it off. One fan said: “Love the look of the beach! I would’ve broke my head.” Another said: “Nah my back would be in a whole lotta pain after that.” One other posted: “You did not know she was that flexible.” What is the TikTok handstand challenge? The TikTok handstand challenge was started by Bryce McKenzie, which tasks users with completing a successful handstand with Ian Asher’s TikTok sound running in the background. Many who have taken part in the challenge – just like Addison Rae – have put their own unique twist on the everyday handstand. The crazier the take, the more the views (it would seem). Addison’s is not even the top-viewed of the trend at the time of writing, as that crown goes to Charli D’Amelio with her submission on June 7. But with just a two million view gap, that could change quite quickly.

Addison Rae faces backlash after Grammys appearance with boyfriend Omer Fedi Instagram: addisonraeeTikTok sensation Addison Rae is being criticized on social media after making an appearance with her boyfriend Omer Fedi, who was nominated for an award. Rumors about TikTok star Addison Rae and producer Omer Fedi first started swirling in 2021 after a series of cryptic Instagram stories.

Addison Rae avoids questions about ‘He’s All That’ being “worst movie of all time” Instagram, Addison RaeAddison Rae pretended to be on the phone when asked a question by paparazzi about her response to some people calling her new movie ‘He’s All That’ the worst movie of all time. The film has already proven a smash hit jumping to number 1 in at least 62 countries on Netflix including the US and the UK at one point. As of September 1, it is the number one movie globally on the streaming platform. ‘He’s All That’ is the TikTok superstar’s first feature-length film, and she has regularly talked about how excited she was for the film (a remake of the 1990s film ‘She’s All That’) to come out. Despite mixed reviews and only 33% on Rotten Tomatoes, fans loved the film, sending praise Rae’s way. Rae went to Instagram after the movie’s release to thank fans for watching it and the reception the film has received. She also asked people to “give [her] a chance.” However, the film has been mocked for editing errors and it received a light-hearted roasting from RuPaul’s Drag Race legends Trixie and Katya who poked fun at the film. Rae was spotted by paparazzi in Los Angeles again with boyfriend Omar Fedi, and was asked about how she felt about the film going to number 1. Rae was responded humbly saying that it’s “very awesome” and that she’s “so grateful.” However, the paparazzi questions then turned negative and asked Rae for her thoughts on some people claiming the movie was “the worst movie of all time.” The paparazzi asked Rae if she had “anything to say about that” to which Rae doesn’t respond. After a few seconds, she then iconically pretends to receive a call so it doesn’t appear that she’s ignoring the paparazzi question.

The movie features the likes of Tanner Buchanan from Cobra Kai, Kourtney Kardashian, cast members from the original film, and Rae’s ex Bryce Hall.

Addison Rae & Avani Gregg reveal “scary” experiences with TikTok fans – Dexerto
Addison Rae & Avani Gregg reveal “scary” experiences with TikTok fans YouTube: Addison Rae, Avani GreggAddison Rae and Avani Gregg are two of TikTok’s biggest content creators — but life as a social media star comes with major drawbacks that can lead to seriously scary situations. While being a top-tier influencer might seem like a career path paved in sunshine and roses, being an uber-popular internet personality can give some fans the wrong idea about exactly how much you’re willing to share about your personal life. A slew of influencers have shared wild stories about fans (and haters) who took things too far. From a fan literally breaking into David Dobrik’s bedroom to a stalker who moved within walking distance of streamer Sweet Anita’s home, things can get seriously hairy for internet celebrities. This is no different for TikTokers, it seems, as revealed by Addison Rae and Avani Gregg on a May 13 episode of the ‘That Was Fun?’ podcast. The two shared their wildest experiences with fans and the general public, and both influencers had some hair-raising tales to tell. One of the most frightening stories came from Avani. She claimed that she’d been followed from the Hype House to her new apartment by two older men, who managed to slip into her complex’s parking garage and even stood in front of the elevator so that she was completely cornered. Read More: Why Corpse Husband’s songs are so inspiring – That wasn’t even the scariest situation she’d endured, either; Gregg also recounted a time she’d been hacked and her phone SIM-swapped, with the perpetrator sending her entire family threatening text messages and even filling her social media feeds with “terrorist videos.” “They texted my family, ‘I know where you live and I’m going to come murder Avani,’” she explained. “I was like, ‘Of course they know where I live, they SIM-swapped the card on my phone!’ I was like, okay we gotta move.” Addison Rae also shared a frightening experience of her own, claiming that someone had found her address and screamed her name just outside her window in the middle of the night. That’s not all; Rae has also been bullied by supposed “fans” who wanted to take a photo with her, claiming that one “fan” had flamed Rae in the comments after uploading a pic with the star to the net. (Topic begins at 10 minutes) While Rae surmised that these instances are likely due to their status as influencers who appear to share “everything” with their fans, it still points to a seriously scary trend that more and more content creators face as the social media age blossoms.

Addison Rae apologizes after backlash over Instagram post – Dexerto
Addison Rae apologizes after backlash over Instagram post Addison Rae, YouTubeTikTok superstar Addison Rae has apologized after receiving some backlash for a caption on one of her latest Instagram posts. Addison Rae is one of the most popular creators on TikTok, with an impressive fan base of over 44 million followers on the app, as well as millions on Instagram and Twitter as well. However, after the star tried to use that platform to spread awareness about some of the ongoing issues and protests in the US, she was met with some backlash for her approach. The TikTok star uploaded a series of selfies to Instagram on June 5, but some fans took issue with the fact that she had used a Martin Luther King quote as her caption. American singer Gus Dapperton was among those to hit out at the influencer, calling her “shallow” for uploading selfies along with her message of support to the BLM movement. “Just because you caption your selfies with an MLK quote doesn’t mean this isn’t shallow as f***,” he remarked, after re-sharing the post to his Instagram story. https://www.instagram.com/p/CBHUV97nWYz/ She deleted the caption from the post and apologized to her fans shortly after, claiming that while she does believe in the quote, it might not have been the best way to get her message across. “My intentions are pure and this quote is something I believe in so deeply,” she explained, apologizing to her fans, “I am so sorry and I’ll take it down.” Addison has been quite vocal about the ongoing Black Lives Matter movement, frequently posting on her social media and has attended some of the protests as well, explaining that it is important to take action wherever possible. https://www.instagram.com/p/CBHkIIZHpDM/ “ I believe supporting BLM on social media is just as important as what I’m doing outside of it, which I will continue to do,” she shared. Addison later added that she is still learning how to handle things in the right way and revealed that she will take “full responsibility” for the mistakes she makes while adjusting to her newfound fame.

Addison Rae angry after lies spread about her on social media – Dexerto
Addison Rae angry after lies spread about her on social media Instagram: addisonraee[jwplayer ZXB9LNVP] TikTok star Addison Rae has hit out at how lies spread on social media, after fans appeared to leak her voter registration ahead of the US presidential election. Being one of the most followed creators on the platform, Rae (real name Addison Easterling) attracts a lot of attention from TikTok users worldwide — both good and bad. Now, she seems to have had enough, calling out the spread of misinformation about her across social media and popular pages online. In a series of posts across Twitter, Instagram and TikTok, Rae has addressed the issue head on. In one comment on a popular Instagram page, following a post regarding a TikTok that appeared to leak Rae’s voter registration, she said: “Everything I’ve been on here for lately is based off of rumors or assumptions. It’s so sad and I’m honestly so anxious about everything because it’s crazy how warped people’s perceptions become of you off the internet.” View this post on Instagram This comes after she explained that the voter registration ‘leak’ wasn’t real or accurate, mainly because she is from Louisiana (not California, as the video suggests) and has never registered to vote. After a flurry of negative comments from fans who obviously hadn’t seen her responses or understood the full picture, Addison took to Twitter to vent her feelings. “Stop spending time bringing others down with untruthful information,” she implored of her followers in one tweet, clearly denying the legitimacy of the ‘leak.’ She posted again shortly after, saying: “Growing up our parents always said ‘don’t believe anything you see on the internet’ yet everyone somehow trusts everything they read on here…” Obviously, regardless of Addison’s political leanings, she deserves the same privacy as everyone else when it comes to information such as her voter registration. While that might not be so easy to do when you’re in the public eye, those spreading this information need to be extra careful about what they’re saying, especially if there’s a chance it’s not even true.

Addison Rae and Tana Mongeau fuel dating rumors after Bryce Hall split – Dexerto
Addison Rae and Tana Mongeau fuel dating rumors after Bryce Hall split Instagram: Addison Rae / Tana Mongeau[jwplayer ksH6zuKH]TikTok star Addison Rae and YouTuber Tana Mongeau are fueling rumors of a possible romance between them, after Mongeau joked about stealing Bryce Hall’s ex-girlfriend from him in a good-humored riff. It’s no secret that Addison Rae and fellow TikToker Bryce Hall have parted ways, with the two sparking speculation among fans that their pseudo-relationship had finally sunk to the bottom of the ocean with a few cryptic tweets in early August. They seemed to confirm their split in a smiley photograph shortly thereafter, claiming that they’d “handled things privately” off social media. https://twitter.com/whoisaddison/status/1290417899572563968?s=20 It seems that Addison’s newly-single status is raising some eyebrows, though — and is even prompting some good-natured flirting from fellow influencer Tana Mongeau, who is “officially” shooting her shot with the viral video star. Mongeau posted a pointed video to TikTok duetting one of Rae’s bikini-clad videos, writing, “Addison, I’m officially getting at you. Bryce, I’m done acting straight and supportive. I’m next.” Mongeau also joked that she was “coming for your b**tch” toward Bryce Hall in a clip taken by paparazzi photographer Kevin Wong, leading fans to seriously consider if the two might become an item in the near future. (Topic begins at 0:29) A little while later, Addison Rae commented on her relationship status in an August 27 tweet, writing, “Single and ready to jingle. Anyways, Christmas is literally in 4 months, wtf.” single and ready to jingle ❄️☃️⛸🎄 anyways Christmas is literally in 4 months wtf — Addison Rae (@whoisaddison) August 27, 2020 That’s not all; it seems that Rae even slid into Mongeau’s DMs, with the YouTuber posting a screenshot of their conversation to her Instagram story (making sure to tag Bryce Hall, for good measure). Mongeau likewise posted a humorous meme of the two to her story, which showed she and Rae embracing while a wistful Bryce looked on — hearkening to the “distracted boyfriend meme” of internet fame. Whether or not the two are in the “talking” stage remains to be seen, but we’re so here for it — and so are fans, apparently, with many a commenter already coming up with their ship name: “Taddison.” (Yay? Nay? It’s cute, either way!)

Addison Rae and Kourtney Kardashian poke fun at Scott Disick rumors – Dexerto
Addison Rae and Kourtney Kardashian poke fun at Scott Disick rumors IG: KourtneyKardashianKourtney Kardashian and Addison Rae have poked fun at bizarre dating rumors – which suggested Rae was seeing the ex-husband of Kourtney, Scott Disick. There are few TikTok stars as famous Addison Rae. The 19-year-old, from Louisiana, has a following of over 53 million on the social media app, and has transcended the platform to the point of owning her own merchandise lines. She is also known as friends of the ultra-famous Kourtney Kardashian, with the pair even recently spotted in matching hoodies. Potentially because of the friendship fostered between the two, rumors have emerged that Rae has been romantically involved with Kourtney Kardashian’s ex-husband, Scott Disick. Disick and Kardashian have three children together, but split back in 2015. He is still widely believed to be close to the Kardashian family, which made rumors he and Rae were dating even more bizarre. Not only is Rae close friends with Disick’s ex-wife, but is also in an on-off relationship with fellow TikTok star Bryce Hall. It appears that Kourtney Kardashian and Rae have had enough of the rumor mill, poking fun at it with an Instagram caption on July 31. The caption simply reads: “My husband’s girlfriend and I exchanging stories.” Rae herself even responded on the Instagram post, simply saying: “What a wonderful tale”. This appears to confirm that the rumors are just hearsay, and there is nothing of genuine substance to them. The post, quite understandably, confused a number of Addison Rae fans, who quickly began to question everything they knew about the TikTok star. One Twitter user simply responded: “What the hell is happening”. It is indeed a bizarre story, but it’s fair to assume that both Kourtney and Addison are just teasing their fans. If that’s not the case, then we’re as confused as most of Rae’s fans.

Addison Rae and Chase Hudson caught up in ‘dating’ prank gone wrong – Dexerto
Addison Rae and Chase Hudson caught up in ‘dating’ prank gone wrong Instagram: Addison Rae, Chase Hudson[jwplayer ZXB9LNVP]It’s no secret that TikTok is home to some harmful trends, but one of these fads took a seriously wrong turn after stars Addison Rae and Chase Hudson got caught up in a scheme that spread harmful rumors about them. As TikTok continues to grow in popularity, so too do its plethora of viral trends, which include everything from harmless dances to downright physically dangerous stunts like putting nutmeg in water and drinking it for hallucinogenic effects. While it’s generally quite easy to sort the good from the bad, sometimes, the bad wins out — and when combined with TikTok’s dark side of bullies and harassers, leads to a cocktail of online toxicity. Addison Rae and Chase Hudson became a victim of such toxicity in late September, after a trend from online trolls asked users to start spreading rumors that the two have been secretly dating this entire time, seeming to hint that this even took place during Chase’s relationship with Charli D’Amelio. https://www.instagram.com/p/CFiR2J-hjAq/?utm_source=ig_web_copy_link That’s not all; this fad even asked viewers to claim that none other than Kim Kardashian was aware of the fake scandal and had leaked a video of the two stars after the cancellation of “Keeping up with the Kardashians,” alleging that Addison was responsible for the show’s demise. Although it may have been clear this was just a prank, it seems the rumors caught on, and soon after, comments came pouring into the two stars’ TikTok videos asking them about their relationship status. https://www.instagram.com/p/CFpZLuJnUrL/?utm_source=ig_web_copy_link Luckily, Addison was quickly made aware of the scheme and spoke out against the harmful rumors, writing in a comment, “I don’t like this :(“ Other high-profile TikTokers came to Addison’s defense, with the likes of Larray writing, “What’s this girl’s TikTok? I just wanna talk.” This is far from the first time Rae has been the target of egregious online trolling; in fact, it seems to be a popular fad for commenters to send hate toward the social media star, with some critics even claiming to have leaked information concerning her voter registration. Rae has since debunked this rumor, but this latest incident just goes to show that haters have no bounds — especially when they can hide behind a phone screen.

Addison Rae allegedly smoked a cigarette and the internet is in shambles – Dexerto
Addison Rae allegedly smoked a cigarette and the internet is in shambles YouTube: Addison RaeTikTok star Addison Rae is facing a serious amount of criticism from concerned fans after a photo surfaced that showed the influencer allegedly holding what appears to be a cigarette between her fingers. Addison Rae is one of TikTok’s most popular content creators. Boasting over 80 million followers on the popular video app, Rae has launched her own makeup line, released her first original song ‘Obsessed,’ and has even scored a starring role in Netflix’s upcoming ‘He’s All That’ film. As such, it comes as little surprise that the influencer has all eyes on her, all the time — but this isn’t always a good thing, as she’s currently facing the ire of the entire internet after a certain photograph went viral. On May 31 (Memorial Day for the United States), a picture showing Addison Rae holding what seems to be a cigarette surfaced on social media… and it doesn’t look like critics were happy about it. The pic quickly made the rounds on social media, with several influencers claiming they’d been sent the photo multiple times from concerned fans and trolls hoping to spark debate on the issue. However, many more found it ridiculous that so much negativity was being directed toward Addison — and still others worried about her health, with some wondering if she isn’t stressed out about all the drama with ex-boyfriend Bryce Hall or too busy with her current schedule. The TikToker may have posted a possible response to the drama with a cryptic Tweet, simply writing “double standards” — perhaps alluding to how some celebrities are glamorized for smoking, while others (like influencers) get piled on for doing so. Rae is far from the first TikToker to get backlash for smoking, though; ‘La Di Die’ singer Nessa Barrett was also put under the microscope in January, after posting a photo of herself and Jaden Hossler lighting up cigarettes on Instagram. Read More: What is the fire challenge on TikTok? – Charli D’Amelio also received ample backlash for getting caught vaping in a video in August 2020, leaving her fanbase divided (although some speculated that it was an anti-anxiety pen). View this post on Instagram For now, it doesn’t seem like the constant speculation surrounding TikTok’s biggest personalities is dying down anytime soon, with the outrage around Addison’s purported smoking photo being the latest in a string of such incidents.

Addison Rae addresses rumors she is “more than friends” with Kourtney Kardashian Instagram: Addison RaeTikToker Addison Rae has addressed rumors that she and Kourtney Kardashian are “more than friends” after she made an appearance on Keeping Up with The Kardashians. Addison and Kourtney recently raised eyebrows due to their unlikely friendship, causing some fans to express their concern on social media, especially due to their significant age gap. 19-year-old Addison Rae is one of TikTok’s most popular content creators, boasting over 80 million followers on the viral video app. She and 41-year-old Kourtney Kardashian collaborated together on an at-home glute workout over Zoom in May 2020, which sparked a close friendship for the two ever since. It became a controversial topic among fans, and some took issue with after the pair posed together in a swimming pool for what many felt was an overly-sensual photoshoot. But it wasn’t just the fans who had concerns. In April, Addison appeared in an episode of KUTK in which Kim revealed that the rest of the family had a theory of their own. Kim said: “Honestly at the beginning, we were like, wait… are they hooking up?” with Scott adding that he’s “still thinking that,” calling it “the elephant in the room.” Addison has now addressed the speculation in an interview with E!

Addison Rae addresses dating speculation amid Bryce Hall rumors – Dexerto
Addison Rae addresses dating speculation amid Bryce Hall rumors Instagram: brycehallAddison Rae has once again faced questioning over the ongoing rumors that she is back with fellow TikTok star Bryce Hall, and given fans a definitive answer. Starting in October 2019, we saw Rae and Hall appearing in each other’s TikToks and before long it became clear that the two were definitely seeing each other. Though it was seemingly never confirmed that they were an item, there was definite chemistry between them, and Bryce in particular has made no effort to hide his feelings, regularly referencing her in his posts. Though rumors seem to be heating up throughout the early days of June, with Hall once again making jokes and speaking about Addison, a new video has surfaced confirming what is going on. In her appearance in a video for the Vlog Squad’s Jeff Wittek, Addison gets a haircut and hangs out with Wittek and Nick Antonyan, before moving on to more personal matters. While Wittek is getting started with the haircut, he asks the one question on everyone’s minds: “You dating anybody?” With a very slight hesitation, so minute you might just miss it, Addison simply says “I am single,” dispelling any rumors that her and Hall were dating again. When asked what kind of men she likes, she said that she just likes someone who’s passionate about what they do, which is very much open for interpretation for Bryce Hall fans. (Timestamp: 10:08) Obviously, Antonyan didn’t miss a beat, asking if she “liked the acting [he] did earlier,” adding that he “put a lot of passion into it.” Addison also said that she doesn’t have a preference on appearance, but that personality is a big thing and they have to be funny as well as passionate. It’s worth noting, however, that this video was filmed in May, so it’s very possible things have changed since then. Whether or not Bryce fits the bill is entirely down to Addison, at the end of the day, so we’ll just have to wait and see what happens.

However, in spite of her success and bubbly personality, Rae has been at the center of near-constant online criticism following an incident in July, when she addressed backlash for sharing a video years prior that called the Black Lives Matter movement a “cult.” While Rae has apologized for sharing the video, critics are still quick to slam the creator over just about anything and everything — from the time she danced to a song discussing eating disorders for a partnered video to allegedly liking comments that shaded Charli D’Amelio. https://www.instagram.com/p/CD9ZeH6BgmK/?utm_source=ig_web_copy_link It seems that the hate train just isn’t stopping for Rae, and she finally sat down to discuss the near-constant criticism in an Instagram Live on September 15. “I think people are so misunderstood, especially on the internet,” Rae said. “There’s people that get portrayed a certain way, or people just attack them for things that aren’t necessarily true, or right. And you never really know what’s going on.” “I’m gonna be honest, it does get to me,” she continued. “There are moments when I read things about myself, and I read comments and I read things like that… I can’t sit here and act like has never affected me, because it has.” Rae even ended up shedding a few tears toward the end of her broadcast, showing just how much the criticism is getting to her; but, unsurprisingly, her stream still managed to spark the ire of haters amid the many comments showing support for the TikToker. This latest broadcast comes shortly after Rae received backlash over liking older comments, one of which appeared to glorify eating disorders. While she didn’t directly address the issue, it’s safe to say that this scandal may have prompted her to go live, providing yet another prompt reminder that celebrities are still people — even if you only ever see them from behind a smartphone screen.

Addison Rae roasted for “stealing” from Black TikTokers and hanging with Kardashians – Dexerto
Addison Rae roasted for “stealing” from Black TikTokers and hanging with Kardashians Youtube, The Daily Show. Instagram, Addison RaeTikTok influencer Addison Rae has been accused of “stealing Black culture” by Dulcé Sloan on Trevor Noah’s The Daily Show, as the comedian joked about her appearance on Late Night with Jimmy Fallon. The clip was part of a wider discussion of the Black creator dance boycott on TikTok over their dances not being properly credited by top influencers. Rae is one of the biggest influencers on the social media platform at number three with over 81 million followers. Roy Wood Jr who was also hosting with Sloan started the discussion about Rae: “The white girl went on the late-night show doing all the black dances and the black dancers never got credited. “So they had to bring the black dancers on like a week later, being like ‘hey, sorry about that. These were the ones that actually did the thing’”. Addison Rae called out on Trevor Noah’s show Topic starts at 3:41 Sloan went on to name Rae as the person they were talking about. Sloan also discussed Rae’s friendship with Kardashians, accusing them also of appropriating Black culture saying: “It is interesting that the girl that was stealing black culture was with the people that be stealing black culture”. “I guess she wanted to do a masterclass on how to steal from black culture”, Sloan joked. Rae had previously appeared in an episode of Keeping Up With the Kardashians and Kourtney Kardashian featured on Rae’s podcast. The Kardashians have long been accused of appropriating Black culture, too. Wood Jr then joked that Sloan was being “saucy today”. Sloan then replied it “just makes sense. You study at the feet of the master”. What is the TikTok strike by Black creators about? Due to a lack of credit by White influencers on the platform, black creators went on “strike” and refused to create new trends in June 2021. This has involved not doing dances to songs in order to highlight what they bring to the social media platform but is often undervalued by creators. With one song in particular ‘Thot S**t’ by Megan Thee Stallion, Black creators refused to dance to the song in order to see what white TikTokers would do instead.

Adam22 trashes his invite to Jake Paul & Tana Mongeau’s wedding – Dexerto
Adam22 trashes his invite to Jake Paul & Tana Mongeau’s wedding Mike Majlak Vlogs, YouTube / Tana Mongeau, InstagramYouTube stars Tana Mongeau and Jake Paul tied the knot in a livestreamed wedding on July 28 – but not everyone is certain that the couple will last, including “No Jumper” podcast star Adam22. Adam “Adam22” Grandmaison gave his thoughts on YouTube’s most buzzed-about wedding during an episode of “The Night Shift” with Maverick member Mike Majlak, where he admitted that he wasn’t exactly a believer in the “Jana” pairing. While Adam is a close friend of Mongeau, he feels as though the MTV starlet should focus on herself rather than getting hitched – or, as he jokingly put it, being a “porn star.” 600https://www.instagram.com/p/B1ZfSOABlIk/?utm_source=ig_web_copy_link“I’m not a believer [in Jana],” Grandmaison explained. “I think Tana needs to live her inner slut and just be a porn star.” That’s not all: Adam even destroyed his gigantic invitation to the YouTubers’ wedding, throwing it against the ground multiple times before chucking the shattered invite out by the dumpster behind his building. (Timestamp: 12:30 for mobile viewers) Although he may not be confident in “Jana’s” endurance, his other thoughts on the subject were likely well-intended jokes, as he attended the YouTubers’ wedding and has been a staunch supporter of Mongeau’s career – but not everyone is as optimistic on the subject. Read More: Pokimane catches merch thief red-handed – In fact, massive pop star Billie Eilish unfollowed Tana following her last-minute wedding to the Team 10 founder, after she’d commented some less-than-positive posts about their Las Vegas engagement (including such quips as “Eek” and “Yikes” – both of which Tana found laughable). billie doesn’t approve of my engagement hahahahahaahaha https://t.co/NGxZdouZEp — Tana Paul (@tanamongeau) June 29, 2019 However, both Tana and Jake have made it abundantly clear that they “don’t care” about naysayers, with Mongeau even creating a fake “apology” video toward Eilish in light of her unfollow on Instagram. With Mongeau admitting that her wedding to Jake wasn’t exactly “legal,” fans are still divided on whether or not the couple will last: but the opinions of critics don’t seem to concern the couple, who celebrated one month of marriage last week in spite of widespread doubts.

Adam22 spends $160k on CryptoPunk NFT after saying he hated them – Dexerto
Adam22 spends $160k on CryptoPunk NFT after saying he hated them Instagram: adam22Popular YouTube podcaster and creator Adam ‘Adam22’ Grandmaison has explained why he spent $160k on a CryptoPunk NFT, not long after saying he hated them. NFT’s have become the next big thing in the blockchain space. Digital artwork that is assigned to just one owner, you now see loads of top influencers rocking NFTs as their profile pictures or just showing off what they own online. We’ve seen names like FaZe Banks, Nadeshot and Logan Paul spend thousands upon thousands of dollars on them, believing and investing in the CryptoPunk space so heavily. While Adam admits to having initially been a skeptic, that’s clearly changed a lot as he’s spending some serious amounts on NFTs now. While hosting an episode of the No Jumper show with AD and Lil Housephone, the trio got onto the topic of NFT’s, with both his co-hosts surprised by his sudden change of heart. “Bro, you so fake on this NFT sh*t bro,” AD tells Adam after he says they should make one. “You said it was the stupidest sh*t ever, and now you bought a f**king bear and think that you’re Mr. NFT!” Adam then clarifies that he was given the bear, but spent $160k on a Punk. “I realized that the technology itself, even though it might not be used right now to a fully optimized state… The technology itself is what I’m a big believer in, and I think it has a big future ahead of it.” When they asked Adam to explain what actually changed his mind, he simply stated that he “just started to believe,” with both AD and Lil Housephone surmising that he must be being paid for this “ad.” There’s clearly been a huge switch in Adam’s stance on the NFT space, and while the rest of the world is still trying to figure out whether these digital tokens are really worth investing in, he’s making sure to get involved early.

Adam22 says Kanye West is “disgracing his Mom’s legacy” with Kim & Pete Davidson drama – Dexerto
Adam22 says Kanye West is “disgracing his Mom’s legacy” with Kim & Pete Davidson drama YouTube: Bradley Martyn/Architectural DigestKanye West’s ongoing feud with ex-wife Kim Kardashian and her new boyfriend Pete Davidson has been making every headline imaginable — and YouTuber and podcaster Adam ‘Adam22’ Grandmaison has called the rapper out for “disgracing his mother’s legacy” with his antics. Kanye and Kim started dating in 2011 before tying the knot in 2014. They went on to have four children together before separating in 2021. With the divorce now finalized, Kanye has been very outspoken about his relationship, the problems they continue to face, and her new boyfriend Pete. In fact, Kanye even posted the animated video for his new single ‘Eazy’ with The Game, in which he can be seen depicted burying a Davidson lookalike alive. Speaking of the ongoing drama, Adam22 went on Bradley Martyn’s Raw Talk podcast with his wife Lena, and wasn’t afraid to speak his mind on exactly how he felt. “I honestly feel really bad for them,” Adam said. “To me, it’s pretty transparent that he’s behaving like a f**king child. Of course he’s going to be embarrassed of all this bulls**t down the road. “To me, what’s really embarrassing about it is that you watch that documentary, you see his mother, you realize what an incredible person she was, and then you see him putting out an album named after her while acting like a bozo and blatantly just not respecting Kim’s personhood.” Timestamp 1:23:13 He went on to mention Kanye “dating all these new women” and his belief that the rapper is basically saying he can date all these new women, but Kim can’t date one person. He added: “It’s a disgrace to his mother’s legacy, the way he’s been acting.” While Kanye and Kim fans are very heavily in favor of each side, Adam made it abundantly clear that he sides fully with Kim, especially because of the relationship he should have with her for their children.

Adam22 reveals hardest part of interviewing rappers on No Jumper podcast – Dexerto
Adam22 reveals hardest part of interviewing rappers on No Jumper podcast YouTube: No JumperYouTuber and No Jumper podcast host Adam ‘Adam22’ Grandmaison has revealed one of the hardest parts of interviewing rappers, during a conversation with Chicago hip-hop artist G Herbo. Adam22 has become one of the go-to people for insights into the rap scene, starting out by interviewing underground rappers from SoundCloud before his (and their) growth saw him move to the forefront of the scene, and now one of the biggest personalities in the game. He is a skilled interviewer, and found a brilliant niche from which to build himself a career and lifestyle out of – but, he says, it’s not always easy to do. Speaking about Herbo’s recent album PTSD, the two discuss the struggles of rappers who haven’t always been able to wear their heart on their sleeve and speak openly about their feelings and “most vulnerable states.” This is something that Adam understands perfectly, having interviewed so many rappers, saying it’s “part of the problem” when talking to them. He says: “A lot of dudes just grow up with the codes of the streets embedded in them, where the rules are: you don’t talk to people you don’t know, you don’t talk on the record, you definitely don’t talk on camera… There’s a lot of rappers who you will never hear open up about their girl because they don’t want to seem soft.” Topic starts at 8:43 for mobile users. Though he references rappers not wanting to discuss their girlfriends, it’s clear the implication is much wider and that many rappers wouldn’t want to touch on subjects that G Herbo does in PTSD, based on his own mental health issues. Herbo, in turn, explains that he’s confident enough in who he is to discuss it so openly, believing that he’s “not taking away from [his] masculinity by embracing these situations.” The two later opened up about the loss of their friends over the years, including the likes of Juice WRLD, XXXTentacion and Pop Smoke, and the effects it has had on them over the years.

Adam22 responds to accusations his vlog exposed LA drug dealers – Dexerto
Adam22 responds to accusations his vlog exposed LA drug dealers Instagram: adam22Adam22 has become the go-to guy for the biggest up-and-coming rappers across the US, but now he’s being accused of snitching on some of them in a vlog that reportedly showed them making crack cocaine. Adam22’s interviews on the No Jumper podcast threw him into the spotlight as well as helping propel some of the biggest young names in hip hop to the forefront of the scene. Names like Lil Peep, XXXTentacion, and more saw huge hikes in their fanbases thanks to the podcast, but given the nature of the podcast, Adam has worked with a number of people with all kinds of backgrounds. Drugs are a common topic of discussion in Adam22’s vlogs and on his podcast, but now he’s being accused of “snitching” on one group, members of the Nickerson County Bounty Hunna Watts Blood, thanks to the contents of one of his vlogs. https://twitter.com/SouthLAHoods/status/1437079755510091778?s=20 According to the tweet, 19 members were indicted after appearing in one of his vlogs, which saw them allegedly making crack for a music video. Adam decided to clear up any rumors that he had snitched on the rappers, responding to the above tweet with his version of events. “I show up in the projects to film a vlog with a young artist because YG asked me to,” he said in a response tweet. “They say they wanna do a scene cooking ‘crack’ (actually candle wax) for the vlog. I said okay but we blurred it for the final edit.” I assumed that if they wanted to be filmed pretending to cook up drugs that that meant they probably didn’t actually sell crack. Because that would be self snitching. If they wanted to snitch on themselves, I don’t really consider that my fault — adam22 (@adam22) September 14, 2021 He continued: “I assumed that if they wanted to be filmed pretending to cook up drugs that that meant they probably didn’t actually sell crack. Because that would be self snitching.” Finally, Adam noted that “if they wanted to snitch on themselves, I really don’t consider that my fault.”

Adam22 responds to claims of faking attempted robbery Adam22, InstagramPopular YouTuber and ‘No Jumper’ podcast host Adam ‘Adam22’ Grandmaison was held at gunpoint during a live stream – but some critics are claiming that the incident was faked. Adam22 spoke out on the debacle during an episode of Drama Alert with host Daniel ‘KEEMSTAR’ Keem on March 18, where he expressed some sympathy toward those who questioned his laughter during the attempted robbery. “The thing he said was, ‘Give me all your money,’” Adam explained. “At that moment, I think I had 50 Australian dollars in my pocket.” [Timestamp: 5:40 for mobile viewers] Adam also admitted that he thought the robbery was merely a prank, noting that he was well-defended by security, who had drawn a gun on the robber as soon as he entered the room. “I thought it was a joke, at first,” he continued. “I thought it had to be a joke. It just seemed more likely that it was a prank. …I thought it was a crazed fan.” In an ironic turn of events, many clips of the incident are being demonetized, due to a song by rapper Post Malone playing in the background of the video.

Adam22 kicks “pervbusters” off podcast after being accused of talking to 16-year-old girl – Dexerto
Adam22 kicks “pervbusters” off podcast after being accused of talking to 16-year-old girl YouTube: No JumperPodcast host Adam22 has deleted a livestream podcast with “officialpervbusters”, after they confronted him about allegedly talking to a 16-year-old girl when he was over the age of 21. Although the podcast episode was deleted, a video taken by one of the members of the “pervbusters” duo on Instagram was later posted to Twitter. The video, which has over 11 million views on Twitter, shows “pervbusters” Jay and Dreday confronting Adam22 over allegations that he dated a 16-year-old when he was 23. When asked by the pair about the allegations, Adam responded: “When I spoke to her on the phone, she was 16. That was before I realized she was underage.” The “pervbusters” responded: “That’s how we catch a live one”. When Adam accused them of using his platform to spread lies about him, the pair asked him again if he spoke to her when she was 16. Adam replied: “For like five minutes. And I was 21.” Adam then admitted that he couldn’t remember how old he was at the time, before kicking the duo off the set and deleting the livestream. The confrontation was the latest series of misconduct allegations put against Adam. In 2018, he was also accused by two women of sexual assault in a Pitchfork interview. In his response, Adam accused one of the women of intentionally trying to damage his record deal. He said: “That s**t was bulls**t. Like, a girl that I dated like, 12 years ago, who… we had a delightful relationship, to be real, until she cheated on me with this guy in a band. That was kinda upsetting.” “But then later on for some reason after I did this little label deal with Atlantic, they f**kin’ got in touch with this girl, and for the first time in 12 years, I heard that she thought that something improper had happened in our relationship. It just didn’t.” The No Jumper podcast was recently in the spotlight when rapper and guest Almighty Suspect started a fistfight with Lil Kelpy.

Adam22 confirms KEEMSTAR’s suspicions of who tried to steal his cat – Dexerto
Adam22 confirms KEEMSTAR’s suspicions of who tried to steal his cat Massive YouTuber and ‘No Jumper’ host Adam ‘Adam22’ Grandmaison created a tweet on September 17, which revealed that an unnamed rapper was attempting to kidnap his cat. The tweet was featured on KEEMSTAR’s YouTube show Drama Alert, where Adam22 responded to KEEMSTAR’s curiosity on the matter in a video clip. In the clip, Adam described an instance where fans told him that someone was outside his store attempting to pay them to steal his cat, Tony. Adam described the rapper as, “a person who has been accused of a few other bad things.” KEEMSTAR took to Google to determine the source of the villainy, and concluded that SoundCloud rapper Kid Buu had to be behind the claims. Adam22 confirmed this resolution in his latest YouTube video. In the video, Adam stated that Kid Buu (taking his name from the Dragon Ball character) was upset at him for not being featured in Adam’s ‘No Jumper’ podcast, which generally features underground music artists. According to Adam, the rapper had asked to borrow Tony for a video shoot, offering him $150 to use the cat. Apparently, the rapper was upset that Adam didn’t comply with his request, and asked some of Adam’s fans to kidnap the animal for $300, as confirmed in a Tweet in response to Adam’s initial post on the subject. Adam ended his video by inviting Kid Buu onto the podcast, in order to “speak up and explain” the allegations against him. While Buu has yet to reply to his invitation, his appearance on other notable podcasts and desire to be featured on ‘No Jumper’ could potentially lead to an interesting conversation between the two personalities.

Adam Savage pits Boston Dynamics robot dog against police training course – Dexerto
Adam Savage pits Boston Dynamics robot dog against police training course Instagram: therealadamsavage / Boston DynamicsTech YouTuber and former Mythbuster’s star Adam Savage finally got his hands on one of Boston Dynamics’ incredible robot dogs, and put the amazing machine through a rigorous test by taking it to a course used to train Sheriffs in California to see what it’s really capable of. The robot, known as Spot, is one of the most impressive pieces of engineering in the world, with the machine able to walk, run, jump, carry heavy loads, and even open doors. On top of that, Spot can climb over obstacles, clamber over tough and rocky terrain, and even do backflips thanks to the incredible power in its legs. If you really want to test the limits of a contraption though, who better to hand it off to than Adam Savage, who spent 14 seasons breaking down myths and creating crazy scenarios to push items to their limit. Now, the 52-year-old has gotten his hands on the company’s dog, and he didn’t waste any time in putting it through its paces to see what it can do. After opening the massive crate inside his Tested studio, the American decided it was time to take Spot on an early adventure, jumping into the car and driving out to a Sheriff’s training facility in California to give the robot a proper run-out. Things immediately got off to a rocky start — literally — when he tried to send the dog careering over a mound of rocks. Spot struggled, almost slipping off them entirely, but eventually clambered up and stood on the summit, much to the delight of Savage. From there, the former Mythbusters host had Spot moving through tunnels, climbing stairs, and even make an attempt at crouching underneath a section of flat bars, with Spot eventually grinding to a temporary halt when the distance between the ground and the roof became too small. Finally, it was time to take Spot into the great outdoors, sending the robotic canine for a run-up an incredibly steep hill after maneuvering over a pile of sandbags, with the Boston Dynamics creation having no issues as it reached the top and stood proudly beside its new master. With the Software Development Kit now available to the public, owners are able to customize the robot and see what other tricks they can make it perform, with Boston Dynamics confirming that Savage will be working to “develop and deploy custom hardware and software” for Spot. Based on his early time with the device though, it seems like Spot won’t be living a life of luxury in the Tested studio with Savage.

Adam Saleh reveals Fouseytube’s response to his allegations YouTuber Adam Saleh created a four-part video series detailing allegations against controversial social media star Fouseytube, who has now responded to the claims. Saleh revealed a video that Fouseytube had sent him after their joint tour wrapped up in early September, where he responded to Saleh’s concerns regarding his behavior. Read More: Alissa Violet confirms allegations of mental abuse against Jake Paul, claims they were never really dating – While Fousey apologized for his actions against Saleh, he claimed to have had no idea about how Saleh had felt, and felt as though “every single person” was setting out to make him look like a villain. He also commented on his promise to perform with rapper J. Cole at one of his concerts, which ended up not happening at all. “If anything the J. Cole thing taught me, it’s fuck J. Cole and everything involved in it,” he stated. Saleh took issue with Fousey’s response, citing an email he had sent to Saleh after the YouTuber had refused to be part of his production team. “When I rejected it, you got salty, and tried to email me, tried to sue me,” Saleh claimed. Saleh also expressed that he never wanted to have dealings with Fousey again. “Please, do not call me your brother when you’ve done multiple, fucked up things to me,” he replied. ”I want nothing to do with you in the future. This whole experience left a bitter taste in my mouth.” Although Saleh is staying away from the YouTuber moving forward, he stated that he wants him to ‘fix’ his actions – which includes paying out a Go Fund Me to a cancer patient, whose chemotherapy he had allegedly promised to pay for during their tour.

Adam Saleh hits back at KSI’s match fixing accusations: “I will end your boxing career” – Dexerto
Adam Saleh hits back at KSI’s match fixing accusations: “I will end your boxing career” YouTube: JJ Olatunji, Adam Saleh VlogsYouTuber Adam Saleh has responded to KSI’s latest video, where he brought up allegations against Saleh that accused him of fixing a boxing match against MMA fighter Marcus Stephenson in 2019. As one of the YouTubers responsible for pioneering the current influencer boxing trend, KSI gave his two cents on all the internet stars who have thrown down in the ring thus far during a July 1 YouTube video. However, when it came time to rate Adam Saleh, KSI brought up allegations from Saleh’s former manager, Naz, who’d accused Saleh of paying off MMA fighter Marcus Stephenson to lose their fight two years ago. “Adam Saleh, you’re a f**king fraud,” KSI said of the allegations. “Get out. Right back down to ‘Should Retire and Never Enter a Ring Ever Again.’ You f**king fraud!” (Topic begins at 5:41) While Naz made the accusations in March 2021, KSI’s video brought them up in a huge way to his over 13 million subscribers a few months later… and it was only a matter of time before this news reached Saleh. Just a day later, Saleh posted his response to the matter — and he didn’t exactly address the rumors. Instead, he took shots at KSI, claiming that he could take him out in one round. “I honestly would TANK DAVIS this dude if I have ONE round with him in the ring,” he wrote. “I’ll even fly to the UK and do it. But NOPE, he would never lmaooo, then he won’t be able to fight Jake or anybody. Smart boy!” View this post on Instagram “He’s always been scared to fight me or even SPAR me,” he continued, posting a video of KSI telling a fan that he wouldn’t fight Saleh. “Gimme one round and I promise you I will END your boxing career. He knows better.” It’s true that KSI is looking forward to boxing Jake Paul once his music career has settled down, but a potential bout with Saleh is still up in the air. KSI has yet to comment on Saleh’s reply at the time of writing.

Adam Saleh exposes Fouseytube for lying to cancer patient during tour – Dexerto
Adam Saleh exposes Fouseytube for lying to cancer patient during tour YouTuber Adam Saleh has uploaded Part 1 of his series exposing social media personality Fouseytube, who he feels has turned on him after ample support. In a 24-minute video on the subject, Saleh revealed a slew of Fousey’s alleged wrongdoings, one of which involved lying to a cancer patient during their joint ‘Adam Meets Fousey’ live tour. Fousey invited a fan who was diagnosed with cancer onto the stage during the tour’s first show in Sydney, Australia, and offered to pay for his chemotherapy. However, while Fousey created a GoFundMe page for the fan, it looks like the funds were never paid out to the patient in question. Saleh messaged the boy through Instagram, who admitted that he had never received the funds that Fousey had promised him. When approached by the boy’s family about the funds, Fousey allegedly “rubbed off” the claims, citing the as-yet unpaid GoFundMe as proof enough of his efforts. “It upset me so much that you were handing out empty promises,” Saleh said of the situation. “He does it so easily.” Saleh went on to make a plethora of other claims around Fousey, calling him a “real diva” in reference to his ‘July 15’ event, for which he asked organizers to remove three dates in their tour. Saleh’s video follows his recent rant on Twitter, where he called Fousey a “garbage human being” and claimed that he was a “rat” to his own friends and family. More details concerning the duo’s relationship will likely be exposed, as Saleh has now teased a fourth installation in his series on the matter.

Adam McIntyre responds to Colleen Ballinger’s apology: “She made fun of me” – Dexerto
Adam McIntyre responds to Colleen Ballinger’s apology: “She made fun of me” YouTube: Colleen Vlogs / YouTube: Adam McIntyreColleen Ballinger finally addressed the grooming allegations made against her in a now-viral ukulele apology video on YouTube. Following that, a former fan who previously accused Ballinger of inappropriate behavior has since responded. Former fan Adam McIntyre first alleged Colleen Ballinger, aka Miranda Sings, groomed and bullied minor viewers in 2020. The allegations caught fire again this year, with Ballinger receiving an onslaught of backlash. The YouTuber lost multiple brand deals and more former fans came forward with their own story, including one who claimed Ballinger “exploited” her minor body. Ballinger finally addressed the allegations on June 28, posting a bizarre musical apology to YouTube. Now McIntyre has responded, sharing his reaction to the apology. Streaming live on Twitch and posting to YouTube shortly after, McIntyre watched Ballinger’s video and commented on the various lyrics featured within the song. McIntyre explained he initially watched the video with his family on call for support, expressing his surprise when Ballinger “pulled out a ukulele”. “This is your response?” McIntyre exclaimed. “Your response is making fun of us?” “I’m so glad this is a joke for her,” McIntyre went on to say sarcastically. Seemingly frustrated by the video, McIntyre told viewers he didn’t understand Ballinger’s approach to the situation and pointed out numerous inconsistencies that he spotted. “I don’t feel gaslit because I know that she’s in the wrong and I know that she’s an awful person,” McIntyre said. He concluded his response in adding that, “She has shown you all the type of disgusting person she is.” Ballinger’s response has since been dubbed by some as “The worst YouTuber apology ever”.

Adam McIntyre mocks Colleen Ballinger’s musical apology with own ukulele response – Dexerto
Adam McIntyre mocks Colleen Ballinger’s musical apology with own ukulele response YouTube: Adam McIntyreColleen Ballinger’s apology video has been dubbed by the internet as “the worst” by any YouTuber. Now one former fan has pulled out his own ukulele to respond. Accused of grooming and bullying by multiple former fans, Colleen Ballinger, aka Miranda Sings, has responded with a musical apology. And the internet is not having it. Adam McIntyre was the first to speak up against Ballinger, as far back as 2020. After initially posting his reaction to Ballinger’s apology, he has now taken things steps further. Mocking the Miranda Sings star, McIntyre pulled out his own ukulele to respond to the apology. Titling his video the same as hers, McIntyre told viewers that if Ballinger believes a musical response is appropriate then perhaps she will pay attention if he does the same. He proceeded to respond to each of Ballinger’s lyrics with his own, singing along to her chorus and calling out inconsistencies he saw in her apology. At multiple points within the video, McIntyre pointed out that despite Ballinger insisting she will only focus on facts in her apology, she never provided any evidence or proof. “Then show the gaps. Show them,” McIntyre sings to Ballinger claiming that “rumors look like facts when you don’t mind the gaps”. In one particular part of Ballinger’s video, she sings “I’m not a predator even though a lot of you think so because five years ago I made a fart joke.” McIntyre put down his ukulele for his response to this part, stating he couldn’t bring himself to sing about something so serious. “You didn’t make a fart joke. You called a fan who was a minor on stage and spread their legs and made their body a joke… you used their body for humor and you didn’t protect them on stage,” Mcintyre said. “I’m not even singing for this part, how dare you diminish that.” Viewers showered McIntyre’s video with support, mostly loving his response to Ballinger’s bizarre musical apology. One wrote, “This is the best example of ‘when life gives you lemons make lemonade’. Adam, you are amazing and an icon.” “Oh my God, Adam my heart dropped when I saw you made another video and I was so worried about what else you could possibly have to respond to, but you blew me away,” another commented. “You’ve been through so much but you still have absolute guts and nerves of steel, I respect this move so much.” McIntyre has not been the only one shocked and appalled by Ballinger’s response, with many YouTubers rising up to slam the Miranda Sings star for her tone-death approach. As the story progresses, we’ll be sure to keep you updated here.

In her video, Stroh claimed that she carried out a year-long affair with Adam Levine, who is notably married to Victoria’s Secret model Behati Prinsloo. After breaking off contact with Levine for a “period of months,” Stroh then said that Levine reached out to her again via Instagram with a jaw-dropping message asking for permission to name his next baby after her. (Prinsloo is currently pregnant with their third child.) Stroh claimed she felt “exploited” and “completely manipulated” by Levine, and said her “morals were unknowingly compromised” during the affair. Levine spoke out about the incident in a statement via his Instagram stories the next day, where he admitted to using “poor judgement in speaking to anyone other than my wife in a flirtatious manner” but denied Stroh’s accusations of cheating with her. “I did not have an affair,” he continued. “Nevertheless, I crossed the line during a regrettable period in my life. In certain instances it became inappropriate; I have addressed this and taken proactive steps to remedy this with my family.” Levine continued his statement by saying that he takes “full responsibility” for the issue and that he and his family “will get through it.” Sumner Stroh responds to Adam Levine’s comments on cheating scandal Stroh has seemingly given her response to Levine’s comments in a cryptic Instagram stories post, where she simply wrote “Someone get this man a dictionary” in white text on a black background. Stroh also published a follow-up video to her initial internet-breaking confession, where she reiterated that she came forward about the affair after telling one of her friends, who allegedly tried to sell screenshots of her texts with Levine to the press.

Adam Levine defends Olivia Rodrigo amid Paramore ‘Good 4 U’ songwriting drama – Dexerto
Adam Levine defends Olivia Rodrigo amid Paramore ‘Good 4 U’ songwriting drama YouTube: Jimmy Kimmel Live / Instagram: Olivia RodrigoMaroon 5 lead Adam Levine is stepping up to defend Olivia Rodrigo after the Disney star added two of Paramore’s members as writers for her song ‘Good 4 U.’ Olivia Rodrigo broke the internet with the release of her viral breakup anthem ‘Driver’s License’ earlier this year. Rodrigo, who first found fame as a Disney actress, has gone on to release her first album, ‘SOUR,’ to critical acclaim. However, once the album had time to simmer, it received a fair amount of criticism, with listeners comparing quite a few of her songs — and album artwork — to other artists. Among the comparisons are names like Courtney Love, with Hole’s ‘Live Through This’ looking quite similar to SOUR’s cover art, and Rina Sawayama, whose ‘XS’ video seems like a direct inspiration for Rodrigo’s ‘Brutal’ music video. What’s the drama with Paramore and Olivia Rodrigo? Now, the internet is in a tizzy after Paramore’s Hayley Williams and Josh Farro were retroactively added as writers on Rodrigo’s song ‘Good 4 U’ — meaning that she didn’t add them until the song and album were already released. Paramore’s ‘Misery Business’ has been popularly paired with ‘Good 4 U’ online, and it’s no surprise, as the two sound fairly similar. According to Variety, a source closely involved with the proceedings claims the credit is an ‘interpolation.’ This basically means that a part of an older song was re-recorded and mixed into a newer track. The situation went largely under the radar until Williams uploaded an Instagram story commenting on the proceedings. Her post was taken from a screenshot of her publisher, who congratulated her and Ferro on their credits for ‘Good 4 U.’ “Our publisher is wildin right now,” Williams wrote. Adam Levine comments on the Paramore comparisons Now, Adam Levine is throwing his two cents into the fray — and he’s of the opinion that new artists making big waves in music should be celebrated, not picked apart. “I do think that we can meet this with a little more compassion and understanding,” Levine said in an Instagram story. “All this calling out and s**t, like, music is a creative thing. I just hate to see it crushed by… you know.” “When you take someone who’s a newer artist and she’s doing things that kind of emulate the ones from generations removed, I don’t know how bad that is. I think it’s kind of a cool thing to introduce a whole generation of people to different musical ideas.” For now, it looks like Levine’s opinion has fans divided as more and more netizens weigh in on the backlash surrounding Rodrigo’s musical success.

Ada Wong’s Resident Evil 4 Remake VA fires back at players harassing her for her performance – Dexerto
Ada Wong’s Resident Evil 4 Remake VA fires back at players harassing her for her performance CapcomLily Gao has fired back against players harassing her online because of her performance as Ada Wong in Resident Evil 4’s Remake. The voice actress faced threats and harassment online from players dissatisfied with her performance in the role of Ada Wong in Resident Evil 4’s Remake. Lily already played Ada Wong in 2021’s “Resident Evil: Welcome to Raccoon City” movie which received middling reviews from sites like Rotten Tomatoes or IMDb. However, the actress would only start receiving hateful comments after the premiere of 2023’s “Resident Evil 4 Remake.” Many players were dissatisfied with Capcom’s decision to replace Ada Wong’s voice actress from Resident Evil 2 Remake, Jolene Andersen. Said “fans” seemingly took it out on Lily, a puzzling outrage given that Ada Wong’s voice actress changed 7 times for different appearances of the character in various media since 1998. Not even counting performances in languages other than English. Lily Gao claps back at players harassing her Lily released a statement via her personal Instagram account. Beginning the message by stating what an honor it was to portray the iconic character from such a legendary franchise. Before stating that soon after the release of the game she started receiving comments that go beyond just being a critique. “While criticism is expected, it’s not the first time an actor of colour faces racist and sexist harassment, for simply participating. Inauthentic casting perpetuates an unhealthy image that further dehumanizes the community they seek to reflect,” wrote Lily in her message. She then went on to state that her performance aimed to alter the portrayal of the character from being a “stereotype” to something much more complex. While the end result will not appeal to every player, one should always voice their issues in a constructive manner. Harassing and belittling actors or actresses for their portrayal of a character is not constructive and leads only to devaluing your critique.

Actress Sarah Paulson reacts to viral “Killer is Escaping” TikTok trend – Dexerto
Actress Sarah Paulson reacts to viral “Killer is Escaping” TikTok trend Hulu, TikTokSarah Paulson’s iconic line from American Horror Story: Asylum has taken TikTok by storm, inspiring the likes of Lizzo, Billie Eilish, and others to join in on the trend — but she isn’t convinced they know the sound is from her. TikTok is a hive for creative content of all kinds, birthing numerous memes, trends, and dances. In the spirit of the Halloween season, some spookier trends are taking over the site, including an iconic line from American Horror Story. In the series’ Asylum storyline, actress Sarah Paulson notably calls out “The killer is escaping!” The scene is unique in that she delivers the line with a completely deadpan expression in spite of the horrifying urgency of her tone. The contrast between her tone and her facial expression has sparked a hilarious meme on TikTok, with users lip syncing to the line while appearing to be completely unfazed. Although a ton of influencers and celebrities have hopped on the trend, perhaps one of the best viral TikToks to spawn from the meme comes from Billie Eilish, who somehow managed to sync her flaring nostrils to Paulson’s terrifying howls. It seems that Paulson is well aware of her newfound status as an internet meme queen… but she isn’t certain that everyone knows the sound comes from her line on the show. Sarah Paulson has the perfect response to being a TikTok trend She discussed the trend in an Instagram live stream with fellow actress Leslie Grossman, noting that a huge lineup of mainstream celebrities had used the sound in their own TikToks. She said: “They have no connection to me, they just know that there’s some weird chick saying, ‘The killer is escaping’.” “I was doing one of my screams that the kids like to tell me how horrible they are. And it’s like, that’s just how I scream! Let’s see how you sound when you’re running for your life, kids!” Thus far, it looks like fans are living for Paulson’s humorous response to the trend, although they collectively disagree that no one knows the sound comes from her line in the show. With Halloween fast approaching, we’ll have to wait and see if any more big-name celebs hop on this trend that Paulson so humbly believes wasn’t inspired by her impressive acting chops.

Actress on $15k an episode goes viral after revealing her true earnings – Dexerto
Actress on $15k an episode goes viral after revealing her true earnings TikTok: Adelaide KaneAn actress went viral on TikTok after she revealed the full breakdown of her income and expenses despite being paid $15k per episode for almost 80 episodes. Actress Adelaide Kane, known for her role in Reign, went viral after she responded to a comment on her TikTok account asking her how her finances in the acting world worked out. Her response revealed some serious expenditure on different parts of the acting world that she described as vital to her job. Actress goes viral after revealing true earnings on TikTok In her TikTok video, Kane said: “Say I did 78 episodes. That pairs out to $1.56 million for four years of work, so assuming I’ve made $5 million in my entire career since I started working at 16, here’s how that breaks down. “10% goes to my agent, 10% goes to my manager, 5% goes to my lawyer, 5% goes to my business manager, and then I get taxed a further 30% because I’m a foreign national working in the US. “So I lose 60% right off the bat, which leaves me with about $2.2 million over the last 14 years, which if you average it out comes down to $178,000-ish a year. Which is fine, good wage. “Except that I have to pay rent in major cities, sometimes in two major cities at once, I have to pay a publicist, which is usally $2-3000 a month, when I’ve had social media teams thats been about $2000 a month. Stylists run anywhere from $1700 to $1500 an outfit, and hair and makeup is about $1000. The comments were divided; some viewers thought the expenses made sense in the industry, while others thought it was still preferable to other types of work. One watcher said: “I tell people often that many actors & actresses they think are “rich” are not…this is great…and it doesn’t even get into other expenses.” Another countered: “You’re complaining to an app full of people who work at Burger King for $20k a year, I don’t think they’re hearing you.” For more updates and news on TikTok, check out the recent arrest of Jackson Mahomes.

Ryan herself spoke out on the issue in a Tweet the very same day, assuring concerned fans that she was well aware of the malicious hack. “Yeah, no, I know,” she simply Tweeted of the matter. Ryan isn’t the only high-profile personality to have been targeted by the group, by far: YouTube stars James Charles, Shane Dawson, and even the Twitter account of deceased YouTuber Desmond “Etika” Amofah were targeted last month, with the hackers posting offensive messages to their profiles and similarly threatening to release nude photos of the hacked celebs. 600Even Twitter co-founder Jack Dorsey was hacked by the same group, always using the hashtag “#chucklingsquad” and linking to a Discord channel. Twitter later confirmed that the hack was due to a “security oversight” from Dorsey’s mobile provider, which “allowed an unauthorized person to compose and send tweets via text message from the phone number.” The phone number associated with the account was compromised due to a security oversight by the mobile provider. This allowed an unauthorized person to compose and send tweets via text message from the phone number. That issue is now resolved. — Twitter Comms (@TwitterComms) August 31, 2019 However, it looks like the hackers have since moved on to other platforms, and are now targeting major celebrities in wake of their massive Twitter attacks in late August. With none of the hackers having yet been identified, it looks like their reign of terror isn’t over – and there’s no telling who they’ll target next.

Actor Jason Diaz goes viral on TikTok after landing mystery Disney role – Dexerto
Actor Jason Diaz goes viral on TikTok after landing mystery Disney role Instagram: Jason Diaz, Pixabay, TikTokStarring in a Disney film is quite the feat to have on your filmography and for TikTokker Jason Diaz, his dreams might just have come true. In the world of entertainment, Disney has always reigned over the industry – but their purchase of 20th Century Fox and other studios has given them unparalleled dominance. With various live-action remakes and original animated films still hitting cinemas, alongside their other box-office smash hits like the MCU, it is an honor to feature in one of their films no matter how big or small the role may be. TikTok sensation Jason Diaz is cagey with the details, but the actor is potentially set to make his Disney debut in the near future. Jason Diaz teases cryptic Disney role Diaz has seemingly been hiding this news for a while, but his latest TikTok has revealed that his next big role could be in a large-scale Disney production. “I don’t know how to feel,” reads the caption of his celebratory upload which has spread like wildfire. His post currently has over 4.4 million views and almost 10,000 comments at the time of writing. The specifics of Diaz’s role are currently unknown, but the wait to confirm the project with his fans must mean it is definitely worth the secrecy. Diaz often showcases his athleticism on his TikTok page, and that has led to plenty of speculation about just what his role could entail. “I can see you playing 4 roles, Aladdin, Jafar, Scar, and Tarzan,” said one. Notably, the reference to the latter has appeared numerous times in the comments, as the actor bears a resemblance to the iconic character. “Say Tarzan pls because we need a Disney Tarzan live-action movie,” added another. We’ll just have to wait and see what Disney has planned for the actor.

Activision sues Anthony Fantano for ‘misusing’ IP laws after demanding payment for TikTok audio – Dexerto
Activision sues Anthony Fantano for ‘misusing’ IP laws after demanding payment for TikTok audio Activision/Anthony FantanoActivision is suing Anthony Fantano for “misusing” IP laws after the music critic demanded payment for usage of his TikTok audio. Anthony Fantano, a well-known YouTuber who runs The Needle Drop channel, has been heralded as one of the most influential music critics of our generation. However, the popular critic is now being sued by Activision. In a lawsuit filed by the game publisher, they are suing Fantano for misusing intellectual property laws after he demanded payment for Activision’s usage of his viral TikTok audio in one of the company’s TikTok posts. The “it’s enough slices” TikTok video was created by Fantano, which has now become a popular audio on the platform. This is what Activision used in a TikTok post where they showed off a pair of custom Crash Bandicoot sneakers. According to Activision’s statement in the lawsuit, “in an apparent effort to even further profit from the Slices Video, Fantano has embarked on a scheme whereby he selectively threatens to sue certain users of the Slices Audio unless they pay him extortionate amounts of money for their alleged use.” Activision claims that when Fantano uploaded the Slices video on TikTok, the audio became available for use by the public, according to TikTok’s terms and services. Activision says that Fantano’s demands started around June 2023 when he asked Activision to take down the video as he felt it infringed on his publicity rights. According to the lawsuit, “Fantano suddenly decided that Activision’s video infringed his publicity rights and constituted a false endorsement. Moreover, even though Activision agreed to remove its video from TikTok, Fantano demanded that Activision either immediately pay him substantial monetary damages or be prepared to defend a lawsuit.” Activision further states of Fantano’s payment demands, “no reasonable consumer would mistakenly believe that Fantano – who admits that users have no idea the Slices Audio features his voice – sponsored or endorsed Activision or its video merely because the Slices audio was included in that video.” As of writing, Anthony Fantano has not made a public statement on the lawsuit, however, we will update you here if there are any changes.

ACE Family’s Catherine Paiz hits back at claims of flirting with Jake Paul – Dexerto
ACE Family’s Catherine Paiz hits back at claims of flirting with Jake Paul YouTube: Jake Paul, The ACE FamilyThe ACE Family has become involved in yet another controversy, after YouTube star Jake Paul accused matriarch Catherine Paiz of flirting with him in the DMs — but Catherine is having none of the speculation from her fanbase. The drama started after Austin McBroom — patriarch of the ACE Family — posted an photo to Instagram on November 15, showing himself wearing boxing gloves while posing with his wife in gym. “I’ve been an athlete my entire life, so it would be disappointing for me not to get involved,” McBroom captioned the pic. “Jake Paul been running from me for years. I got 5 million dollars for whoever steps into the ring with me.” It seems that Jake Paul was completely unfazed by this challenge, as he reposted the photo to his Instagram stories with a shocking caption. “I’d be more worried about your wife in my DMs,” he wrote. This kicked off a storm of controversy around the trio, with many critics seeming to speculate the merits of Catherine’s loyalty — but she isn’t backing down from the heat, as told by her response to a curious fan regarding the matter. In an Instagram stories post on November 18, Paiz responded to the controversy, after one fan asked if she really had been sliding in Jake Paul’s DMs. “Respectfully, anyone with a brain knows that’s not true,” she wrote. “Not saying you don’t have a brain, but you get it.” View this post on Instagram While Paiz herself is adamant that there’s nothing going on between she and Jake, the youngest Paul brother also posted a poll to Instagram asking his fans if he should post the “receipts” of their purported conversations, along with a screenshot that appears to show Paiz asking him to delete his accusations of their alleged flirtation. This news also follows an accidental video upload from the ACE Family in October, which showed the couple appearing to get into an argument, with McBroom shouting at Paiz. Although the couple quickly explained the issue away as a normal and “realistic” part of everyday married life, the incident has left some fans on edge, while others congratulated the duo for “keeping it real.”

Ace Family’s Austin McBroom addresses “secret daughter” rumors Instagram: Austin McBroomAustin McBroom has hit out at several TikTokers who have accused him of having a secret daughter this past month, saying he “feels sorry” for them for “making up lies”. The initial allegations about the ACE Family patriarch having a secret baby came when TikTok user Adrianna Vee posted a TikTok on 24 March of herself with large piles of money, with the text on screen saying: “When Catherine [McBroom] pays you to have an abortion after getting pregnant by her husband Austin.” Although she claimed to users in a later TikTok that she kept the baby, many fans pointed out that she used the hashtags ‘#itsa #joke’ in the initial video, which has shed doubt on the rumor that her three-year-old, who frequently appears in her TikToks, is indeed fathered by Austin. https://www.tiktok.com/@adrianna_veeh/video/6943369913981504774?lang=en&is_copy_url=0&is_from_webapp=v1&sender_device=pc&sender_web_id=6931184181967947270 However, rumors about the child’s paternity resurfaced once again after TikTok user ‘from760anon’ duetted Vee’s TikTok and said that her baby was “100% Austin McBroom’s child.” In now-deleted Tiktoks, the user claims to have worked at the daycare the child attended, and said that as well as being listed as the baby’s father on the paperwork, he also pays for her schooling. She also said in the TikTok that she was required to sign an NDA to keep the paternity of the baby quiet. https://twitter.com/defnoodles/status/1380388642674241538 In light of this latest TikTok, Austin spoke out on his Instagram stories, saying that people constantly use “his and his family’s name for views and to pay their bills.” He said that he doesn’t often comment on cheating allegations because they are “never true”, but added “people keep giving these attention w*ores what they want and that’s why they continue to make up lies and rumors.” “Y’all some real weirdos, what type of person do you have to be to make some sh*t up like this. I feel sorry for your life!” he continued. This latest drama comes while McBroom’s beef with TikTok star Bryce Hall continues to heat up in anticipation of the YouTubers vs TikTokers boxing match in June. In a heated war of words on social media, Austin referred to Bryce as “son” and advised him to stop being a “lil’ boy” and “stirring up drama” instead of training. He also implies that the Sway House star used steroids.

ACE Family YouTubers under fire again after forcing fans to pay for new videos – Dexerto
ACE Family YouTubers under fire again after forcing fans to pay for new videos ACE FamilyYouTubers the ACE Family are centered around a new controversy that has a lot of fans lashing out at the popular social media stars for indirectly forcing their audience to start paying for new content. The ACE Family is comprised of couple Austin McBroom and Catherine Paiz with their daughter Elle, and now the family have created another stir with their audiences as an initiative to bolster their app has many calling them out. The ACE Family released their own app in early 2019 that promised to feature “exclusive access to discounts, deals, and updates to the Ace Family gear” for a subscription price. All would be well and fine, but on January 28, the ACE Family came out with a video saying they were taking a break from YouTube. “With that being said, during our break, which is why we said it wouldn’t really be a break, we’ll be focusing on our app and our merch” Austin McBroom added. The decision was heavily criticized, as many people have called the move a scam. YouTube is freely accessible to all, so fans feel that by solely focusing on content creation for their app they are forcing their audience to pay for content through the app’s monthly subscription. (Timestamp of 1:25 for mobile viewers) Fans have speculated that the move is in response to the still unaddressed “Lollipop video,” in which McBroom provided a phallic-shaped lollipop to an adolescent girl and posting it on their Instagram. The ACE Family has taken a lot of heat recently, and moving their videos behind a paywall hasn’t let up the pressure from their supporters.

ACE Family shocked after Tesla breaks down on highway – Dexerto
ACE Family shocked after Tesla breaks down on highway The ACE Family, YouTubePopular YouTube family vloggers ‘The ACE Family’ took a sharp left turn from their usual arsenal of content after their Tesla broke down on the side of a highway in the middle of a video. Catherine Paiz and Austin McBroom are some of YouTube’s top family vloggers, known for sharing videos of their everyday life with daughters Elle and Alaïa McBroom. However, there’s more to this family than mere vlogs; the duo also releases their own music and music videos, as well as hosts an annual charity basketball tournament filled with other top content creators and even A-List celebrities. It was during one of their normal vlogs, though, that an unfortunate event occurred — their Tesla (high-priced electric vehicles) ran out of juice while they were driving on the highway, leaving both YouTubers stranded on the side of the road. The pregnant Catherine stepped outside of the car as husband Austin spoke to the camera, admitting that he’d thought 10% would have been enough juice to get them to their destination. “ACE Family, you won’t believe what just happened to us,” McBroom sheepishly revealed. “He said that 10% could get us to where we needed to go!” Catherine jibbed. “And we were at 1% still on the Freeway, and Austin was like, ‘No, we’re gonna make it! We’re gonna make it!’” “So, we just pulled over just to be safe, and the car ended up dying anyway,” Austin continued. “We’re new to being part of the Tesla family. We don’t know too much about this car or what it could do, but it let us down.” (Segment begins at 7:26 for mobile viewers) After jokingly sticking out a thumb in an attempt to “hitchhike” his way to their destination, the two were finally greeted by roadside assistance, which took their Tesla into a mechanic shop as well as gave them a ride. The ACE Family’s misadventure just goes to show that no matter who you are or what your status, unexpected accidents can happen to anyone, leaving even top YouTube personalities stuck on the side of the road asking for help.

ACE Family responds to backlash with surprising new docuseries – Dexerto
ACE Family responds to backlash with surprising new docuseries The ACE Family, FacebookPopular YouTubers known as the ACE Family are releasing a documentary series about their experience as internet moguls – and their lives aren’t as happy as their vlogs might lead fans to believe. The family dropped a trailer for the documentary on January 31, which appears to cover both the good and bad aspects of being a super popular YouTube group. One selection from the trailer detailed an interaction between ACE family patriarch Austin McBroom and a possible thief, while other clips from the ad dealt with similar issues of safety and invasions of personal privacy due to their large fanbase (the group currently boasts over 15 million subscribers). The four-part series is set to debut on February 23rd, 2019. This docuseries could mark a response to widespread backlash the family received in early January, after a controversial SnapChat video surfaced of McBroom buying a toddler (reportedly related to a family member of wife Catherine Paiz) a phallic lollipop from a Spencer’s outlet. Austin McBroom took a CHILD into a SEX STORE and bought her a DICK LOLLIPOP. I would LOVE to hear how he and other men try to defend this.pic.twitter.com/frTCvar7IC — ITS HOBIUARY BITCHES :purple_heart: (@bangtansdurag) January 7, 2019 In the video, McBroom explained that the child would have stolen the lollipop if he hadn’t bought it for her – but his explanation didn’t sit well with critics. The family likewise came under fire later in January, after announcing that they would take a break from YouTube to upload content on their mobile app. Fans widely decried this move, noting that regular viewers would have to pay in order to watch their videos on the app rather than watching for free through YouTube. While the family has yet to speak out about either controversy, their docuseries could provide a statement on the issues in question. For now, fans and critics alike will have to wait until the end of February for a possible answer.

Ace Family respond to outrage over part-time job video – Dexerto
Ace Family respond to outrage over part-time job video Family vloggers “The Ace Family” are generally known for their wholesome, family-friendly videos – but one of these videos sparked outrage from the working class, after the two “worked” a part-time gig for content. In what many saw as a slap in the face, Ace Family matriarch and patriarch Catherine Paiz and Austin McBroom tried their hand at working 24 hours in the food service industry – although they only ended up lasting a little over two. Critics across the net accused the couple of making light of the everyday struggles of the working class, with McBroom himself claiming that he “never had the opportunity to work a 9-5.” Just over a month later, the couple has finally replied to the mass backlash surrounding their video, with Paiz discussing the matter during a Halloween-themed upload on October 29. “It’s interesting how people always wanna take certain words you say and certain things you say and turn it into a completely different thing,” she said of the outrage. “And we live in this era where social media has really taken that to the next level, and it’s just really frustrating.” (Timestamp: 7:00 for mobile viewers) Paiz went on to explain that she’d worked in the service industry for years before rising to YouTube fame, claiming that their part-time video idea was a means to serve their fans. “…I was cleaning houses for several years,” she said. “I helped my mom. She had another job. That was actually my first job, along with many, many other jobs I’ve had… who gets to reach 17-18 million people at any given moment of the day and say, ‘Hey, come meet us. Let me serve you, let me make your food.’” 600https://www.instagram.com/p/B3AYNcjBIGf/?utm_source=ig_web_copy_linkThus far, it seems like fans are largely satisfied with Paiz’s response to the drama – although her restaurant stint is far from the biggest of the family’s scandals, at present. On October 14, fellow YouTuber Cole Carrigan accused Austin McBroom of sexual assault and rape. In Response, McBroom claimed he would be taking legal action against Carrigan on the grounds of extortion, and flatly denied the allegations. I hope you really all understand what’s going on here… pic.twitter.com/rQ2HEOBFnW — Austin McBroom (@AustinMcbroom) October 15, 2019 For now, it seems that the Ace Family’s restaurant issue has been laid to rest – but the allegations against McBroom continue to divide the YouTubers’ fanbase.

ACE Family reportedly hit with two lawsuits amid Social Gloves pay drama – Dexerto
ACE Family reportedly hit with two lawsuits amid Social Gloves pay drama YouTube: The ACE FamilyYouTubers Austin McBroom and Catherine Paiz of the ACE Family are reportedly facing two lawsuits amid controversy for not paying fighters involved in the Battle of the Platforms, as well as potential eviction from their $7 million home. The ACE Family has been having a difficult time these past few weeks. In mid-June, Austin McBroom was linked as the owner of Social Gloves, and was accused of not paying influencers involved in the YouTubers vs TikTokers boxing event — accusations that are still being levied weeks after the criticisms first came to light. That’s not all; it was recently reported that the ACE Family is facing eviction from their $7 million home, after purportedly failing to make mortgage payments on the house. The family is now facing pre-foreclosure on the mansion. Now, further documentation has come to light showing that the ACE Family may be facing two lawsuits in addition to their ongoing troubles. https://twitter.com/defnoodles/status/1412159101371441152 Is the ACE Family being hit with lawsuits? The first lawsuit was filed in September 2020 by a social media company named “Subify LLC,” while the second lawsuit, filed in April 2021, was filed by a rental company for construction equipment, named “Ahern Rentals.” At the time of writing, both suits are currently labeled as “pending,” and neither McBroom nor Paiz have spoken out about the situation publicly. https://twitter.com/defnoodles/status/1412486842478317569 Does Austin McBroom own Social Gloves? Austin McBroom is the CEO of Ace Hat Collection Inc., which owns the Social Gloves trademark, according to the United States Patent and Trademark Office directory. With this information in mind, it comes as little surprise that participants are hitting out at the YouTube star for not being paid for their time in the ring — and while McBroom hasn’t denied his ownership of Social Gloves, he has hit back at accusations of withholding pay from parties involved. Not the most desperate human being speaking on shit she doesn’t know about. Don’t try and bring me or the event down to make you feel better about Tanacon. Every fighter including myself will be getting paid and a lawsuit is happening and it’s not with social gloves dumb dumb — Austin McBroom (@AustinMcbroom) June 26, 2021 For now, it looks like the ACE Family has a lot on their plate, leaving fans and critics alike awaiting a public response from the YouTubers.

ACE family launches $50-per-month millionaire program despite admitting to “scams” – Dexerto
ACE family launches $50-per-month millionaire program despite admitting to “scams” YouTube: ACE FamilyAustin McBroom has announced his latest ambitious business venture, ‘How I Became A Millionaire, ‘which he claims will teach fans “the secrets to social media to help [them] achieve [their] dreams.” ‘How I Became A Millionaire’ (HIBAM), is the ACE Family’s new online learning program that claims to teach users how to become a millionaire social media influencer like McBroom himself. Some of the courses already on the site include ‘How to Make Money from Social Media’ and ‘How to Grow Your Social Media Platforms.’ In order to access these courses, fans need to purchase ‘Gold Membership’, which is priced at $49.99 a month. The program was announced on Instagram, with the official HIBAM account already standing at 23.5k followers. In a video posted to the account, McBroom can be seen standing outside his mansion in front of various sports cars, which he says he achieved through “the power of social media”. View this post on Instagram Yet, the website has already been causing chaos for consumers, with several fans reporting that their card had been declined when attempting to purchase the subscription. In an Instagram post, McBroom said that the website was currently “overwhelmed” due to “high traffic” but that the situation would be resolved soon. However, for many fans, it brought back memories of the early days of ACE Club, which was flooded with web issues during its first outing. One Twitter fan said, “He must want to get sued for a video or something because this is not going to end well.” What happened to the ACE Club? This new venture comes six months after the ACE Club, a premium members-only platform, was shut down. The website, which also operated as an app for smartphones, required users to subscribe for $2.99 a month to gain access to exclusive content, livestreams and giveaways. Opening up about the ACE Club in an Instagram livestream, Austin McBroom explained that the website wasn’t fit for purpose. He admitted that, as a result, users of the ACE Club were effectively “scammed”, although he insisted that they had “refunded everybody” who subscribed to the platform. Austin McBroom recently blamed a web developer for the “Ace Club” failing. In the live, Austin admits he scammed his fans. He adds they refunded everyone. pic.twitter.com/gdFihxZcye — Def Noodles (@defnoodles) February 6, 2021 “Unfortunately, the people we partnered up with for ACE Club ended up scamming us,” he explained. “It hurt us because, in reality, you guys got scammed. The website wasn’t built to the degree that we needed it to be, so you guys didn’t get the value you should’ve got, so unfortunately we had to stop funding the ACE Club.” But that’s not the end of the controversial venture; the family recently announced they’re working with a developer to re-launch the Club at some point.

ACE Family’s Austin & Catherine McBroom claim they were scammed amid home foreclosure – Dexerto
ACE Family’s Austin & Catherine McBroom claim they were scammed amid home foreclosure YouTube: The ACE FamilyFamily vloggers Austin and Catherine McBroom of the ACE Family have addressed rumors that they’re facing foreclosure on their house, claiming that they were scammed by contractors. The ACE Family is a hugely popular family vlog channel, run by parents Austin and Catherine McBroom who upload videos about their lives for their 19 million subscribers. In July 2021, there were reports that the couple were being evicted from their Los Angeles mansion as a result of missed payments, but Austin later responded that “Ain’t nobody getting evicted, ain’t nobody moving.” Now, the couple has addressed the situation in an hour-long YouTube video titled ‘Our House Story,’ with Catherine explaining that the contractor they used was not a licensed contractor, and was actually using someone else’s contracting license, which they were unaware of for two years. She went on to say that “because of that he was able to get everyone on his team to basically screw us,” including the architect and the realtor. The pair added that they went into escrow without getting the certificate of occupancy, although said they were promised they would be getting it imminently. However, they revealed that they were never given it. Catherine said that when you don’t have a certificate of occupancy, you don’t have gas in your house because it’s illegal, and as a result they’ve “never had gas” while living there. The first thing that made them realize they had been “screwed” was the front door, which after three weeks, started to warp in the heat of the sun because it was actually made of plywood and not mahogany as they’d planned. She also showed videos of the house leaking water through the ceiling, along with a series of other issues with the property. In response to accusations that they weren’t paying their bills, Catherine explained: “I have to say this. If it was true that we weren’t paying our bills — this is like the narrative people want to give it — if it was true that we didn’t pay our bills, why the freak would I spent $40-50,000 on my gardening and get all this gardening done just a couple months ago and literally show it to you guys on our channel?” She said that although she tried to “move forward and be positive” after getting scammed, when she found out their house was under foreclosure through someone asking her about it on Instagram, she “literally f**king lost it.” They explained their lack of certificate of occupancy meant they struggled to get loans, and that was why they went under foreclosure, after which it was picked up by “tea channels.” The couple slammed people joking about the situation, with Austin saying it was “outrageous” that people were laughing about it. The lender went on to buy the house for $10 million, though the couple say that the property was deemed to be worth $16.5 million in an appraisal a few months prior. Read More: BTS inspire viral TikTok dance trend – In response to the question of what they plan to do next, Catherine explained: “As far as us suing anybody, like we should be suing these people, but yeah, time and energy, like I’m just so over it, I just wanna move on. Yeah, we lost millions of dollars in this house, but we just got a new house.” They added that going forward they plan to be more private about where they live and the house they live in, although they are still planning on showing their audience the new property in their vlogs.

Austin McBroom denies reports of ACE Family’s eviction from $7 million home – Dexerto
Austin McBroom denies reports of ACE Family’s eviction from $7 million home The Ace Family, Youtube/InstagramAustin McBroom of the ACE Family has officially responded to rumors of facing eviction from his $7 million home over purportedly missing payments and facing pre-foreclosure. The Ace Family, a channel with over 19 million subscribers, on YouTube is hosted by Austin McBroom, his wife Catherine, and their three kids Elle, Alaia, and Steel. With videos often getting millions of views, they post about their life in LA and day-to-day vlogs in their extravagant LA mansion. The speculation surrounding potential eviction for the family comes after a recent string of controversies surrounding Social Gloves, a company that Austin McBroom allegedly owns. It is currently unknown whether Social Gloves’ financial troubles and the allegations made about the Ace Family’s lack of mortgage payments are linked. What’s Social Gloves and how is it linked with the Ace Family? Social Gloves was the company that oversaw the recent YouTubers vs TikTokers fight, the so-called “Battle of the Platforms”. After the event, a string of negative news came out including allegations it had made only 27% of its intended sales as well as accusations the boxers hadn’t been paid. Before the Battle of the Platforms fight, it was expected to pull in about 500,000 PPV (pay-per-view) sales but apparently only made 136,000, a long way off. This was then followed by comments on the BFFs podcast by TikToker Vinnie Hacker that they hadn’t recieved their money yet for the event. Social Gloves has insisted they are “working tirelessly” to ensure any fighter who hasn’t been paid yet will get paid. The first time Social Gloves was linked to McBroom was when Youtuber Tana Mongeau alleged that he owned most of the company on Twitter. McBroom was also one of the headline fighters at the YouTubers vs TikTokers fight. not austin mcbroom owning most of social gloves and then everyone being surprised people aren’t getting paid 💀 — CANCELLED (@tanamongeau) June 26, 2021 From there, the controversies have continued to escalate with other influencers such as Jake Paul getting involved including a verbal altercation between Paul and McBroom.

This is according to United States Patent and Trademark Office directory. Ace Hat Collection Inc.’s CEO is, you guessed it, Austin McBroom with Catherine listed as Secretary according to D&B Business Directory While McBroom didn’t deny Mongeau’s allegation on Twitter regarding his ownership of the company, he forcefully hit back about the allegations people were not being paid. Not the most desperate human being speaking on shit she doesn’t know about. Don’t try and bring me or the event down to make you feel better about Tanacon. Every fighter including myself will be getting paid and a lawsuit is happening and it’s not with social gloves dumb dumb — Austin McBroom (@AustinMcbroom) June 26, 2021 Has any of the Ace Family said anything? Austin McBroom finally responded to the eviction rumors on July 7, posting his reply to the drama in an Instagram story showing off his $7 million home. “Stop capping on me and my family’s name,” McBroom wrote. “Ain’t nobody getting evicted, ain’t nobody moving. Stop believing everything you hear haters say on the internet! If we were moving we definitely would have informed the world and made a video about it. Have a good rest of your day.” This latest news comes in wake of leaked legal documents alleging that the ACE Family is facing a number of lawsuits and being sued for $65,000 by a former landlord.

ACE Family “cancelled” after Austin McBroom spanks child in video Instagram: Austin McBroom[jwplayer mgzBNoPb]Popular YouTube family channel ‘the ACE Family’ is coming under fire after a video surfaced that showed patriarch Austin McBroom spanking his four-year-old daughter while making inappropriate comments. The ACE Family is comprised of five members, with the newest being parents Austin McBroom and Catherine Paiz’s infant son, Steel. The Family also boasts two daughters, Alaïa and four-year-old Elle, the latter of which has become the center of the YouTubers’ latest controversy. In late June, a video surfaced online that showed Paiz and McBroom sitting on a sofa with their two daughters, seemingly prior to the birth of Steel. In the video, McBroom discusses how he’s been working out, and slaps his derriere as if to showcase his “gains.” https://www.instagram.com/p/CBgdQIQDkOU/?utm_source=ig_web_copy_link Then, McBroom performs a similar action on the rear-end of his daughter, Elle, saying, “Oh, god d***,” — leading to an avalanche of outrage against the ACE Family patriarch for what many are considering predatory behavior. “This is so disturbing,” one critic Tweeted of the situation. “The way his daughter put her hand in front of his to stop him from doing it again is heartbreaking.

While the ACE Family are no strangers to controversy (with McBroom also having come under fire for past racist Tweets), they have yet to speak out regarding this latest outrage over the video at the time of writing, leaving both fans and critics alike waiting for a response over a disturbing video clip that has sparked deep-seated concern from viewers across the net.

ACE Family accused of stealing from small YouTuber for Ace Fest event – Dexerto
ACE Family accused of stealing from small YouTuber for Ace Fest event ACE FamilyYouTube stars The ACE Family are being accused of stealing footage from a small YouTuber to advertise their upcoming event Ace Fest. The ACE Family began selling tickets for their upcoming event Ace Fest back on April 9. Since then, stars of the channel Austin McBroom and Catherine Paiz have been accused of fudging the statistics on the number of tickets they sold after the pair claimed the event was completely sold out. Now, the couple is being called out on social media over claims they stole footage to promote Ace Fest as well. ACE Family allegedly stole footage for Ace Fest Social media users have pointed out that footage the couple has advertised across social media might be taken directly from a small content creator without their permission. The footage appears towards the end of the video below and shows an aerial view of a carnival including glowing rides and games. View this post on Instagram YouTube sleuth MadCatster tracked down the person who owns the footage, Jay and Mack Films, and asked them if they were aware ACE Family had been using their videos to promote their own event. The videographer said they hadn’t heard of ACE Fest using their footage until MadCatster had contacted them for comment. They also said, “That was the first time we heard anything about it… We came across that YouTube video that had over 2 million views where they’re using it to promote their Ace Fest and we saw our clips and were so shocked. Like, what the heck.” Video starts at 8:20 The YouTuber went on to say it was “wild” that the ACE Family didn’t contact them for permission or notify them they were using their footage to promote ticket sales for their own event. As we draw closer to the official date for Ace Fest, July 9, many content creators like Ethan Klein believe the event either won’t actually happen at all or will be “Fyre Festival” levels of disaster.

Ace Family accused of scamming fans by hand-picking winner in Tesla giveaway – Dexerto
Ace Family accused of scamming fans by hand-picking winner in Tesla giveaway Instagram: Catherine McBroomThe Ace Family is being accused of scamming fans by hand-picking a winner in a ‘randomly’ chosen Tesla giveaway. On June 11, Austin McBroom and Catherine McBroom of the Ace Family announced they were giving away Catherine’s Tesla Model X. Seemingly all fans had to do to participate was to tag two friends in the comments, download the Kick app, and follow them on the new streaming platform. And in the provided terms and conditions, they explicitly state the winner will be drawn at random, with the winner being announced on June 25. Austin further reiterated this point in a follow-up Kick livestream. However, fans have since accused the couple of rigging the giveaway, pointing to another Kick live stream and claiming the couple actually hand-picked the winner rather than committing to a random draw. “When it came to picking out the Tesla winner, it ended up being actually easier than we thought,” Austin said in the livestream. “The reason I say that is because we literally had like two other guys along with us looking for somebody who was really part of the Ace Family.” “We get really frustrated because we don’t really know if, if you know, the person is like part of the Ace Family. We don’t know if someone really comes on who [doesn’t really know us,” he said. Austin went on to claim the winner that was picked was one of the first fans to buy their merch. “This particular person, our team actually did their homework and research on this person.” “This person was one of the very first people to ever buy Ace Family merch,” he alleged, further explaining they wanted to give the car away to a fan that supported and appreciated them in the long term. The Kick livestream was meant to properly announce the winner, however, the winner was never publicly announced, nor have either Austin or Catherine posted about the winner on their social media pages since. The Ace Family has been accused in the past for scamming, as they are currently facing numerous lawsuits in relation to Austin’s boxing event, a cosmetics company suing Cathering for staging a “coup”, among others.
