  • H3H3’s Ethan Klein blasts YouTubers collaborating with James Charles after controversy – Dexerto

    H3H3’s Ethan Klein blasts YouTubers collaborating with James Charles after controversy Instagram: jamescharles / YouTube: H3H3 PodcastYouTuber Ethan Klein of H3H3 Productions has called out creators such as Brent Rivera for collaborating with YouTuber James Charles after he returned to the internet following allegations of ‘grooming’ against him. James Charles is one of the biggest beauty influencers on YouTube, with over 24 million subscribers to his name on his channel. In April, Charles was accused by multiple teenage boys of messaging them inappropriately, leading to a huge wave of backlash against the YouTuber. He claimed he didn’t know they were underage at the time he was talking to them. The beauty guru took a several-month break from the internet after this, returning in July to regular uploads on YouTube. This includes collaborations with other people, such as his recent participation in Brent Rivera’s ‘Squid Game’ video. However, H3H3 Productions’ Ethan Klein condemned Rivera’s decision to collab with Charles. Read More: Valkyrae opens up about RFLCT drama – “I don’t f**king get this. I don’t get it,” he said. “Why are people working with James Charles? Why? That’s like going and doing a collab with R. Kelly at this point. I mean, maybe a little less bad but, what’s the difference, honestly. “How can you put James Charles in your video you sick f**k? You really don’t care? All these people, FaZe Rug? What’s up, dude? You don’t care that this guy’s praying on kids on Snapchat?” Topic starts at 56:47 He then went on to point out the like to dislike ratio of the video. “I just feel like these people need to be shamed, because clearly they don’t have a f**king brain, and what they’re doing is they’re rehabilitating James’ reputation because look, overwhelming ‘like’ majority here. These people are all enabling and rehabilitating a predator. Straight up. Period,” Klein added. James recently explained that although he’s taken a long break from the internet, it was “very much needed,” and said that he’s just been taking things “really really slow.”

  • H3H3 challenges Logan Paul to sue him amid Coffeezilla feud – Dexerto

    H3H3 challenges Logan Paul to sue him amid Coffeezilla feud YouTube: H3 Podcast, Logan PaulYouTube commentator Ethan Klein of H3H3 has publicly challenged Logan Paul to sue him amid the latter’s ongoing feud with cryptocurrency investigator Coffeezilla. Logan Paul is currently embroiled in a controversy involving his 2021 NFT game, CryptoZoo. Paul’s game was publicly called out by cryptocurrency-focused YouTuber Coffeezilla, who made a three-part video series in late 2022 calling out the influencer for what he deemed a “scam” that purportedly took advantage of his fans. Paul replied to Coffeezilla in a YouTube video on January 3, 2023, where he threatened legal action against the influencer for including an “illegal recording” of a private conversation in his investigative series. “I suggest you use the money from your Patreon to hire a good lawyer, you’re gonna need it,” Paul said in his response. “See you in court.” Since then, multiple content creators across the internet have weighed in on the situation — the latest of which is H3H3’s Ethan Klein, who seems eager to check Paul’s threats of taking his battle with Coffeezilla to court. H3H3’s Ethan Klein calls out Logan Paul over “scam” accusations Klein publicly called out Logan in a biting tweet on January 4, saying he’d be game to take legal action against the YouTuber if that’s where things are headed. “Since Logan Paul seems eager to sue [Coffeezilla] for defamation let me say this; Logan Paul is a scammer, a serial scammer, actually, and I’ve been saying this for a long time,” he wrote. “So if you want to sue someone for defamation, Logan Paul, please include me too, you scammer.” Although Paul has yet to respond to Klein’s post, he did upload an episode of his IMPAULSIVE podcast that same day, where he further expounded upon the Cryptozoo controversy and claimed he was advised to “stay silent” when the game first broke down in 2021. For now, it looks like Paul is still facing criticism on all fronts — but he’s not the only influencer getting flamed right now. YouTuber KSI also facing backlash from names like Tyron Woodley, Slim Albaher, and Joe Fournier after picking FaZe Temperrr as a replacement when Dillon Danis dropped out of their January 14 fight earlier this morning… so it looks like both business partners are taking the heat.

  • H3H3 blasts “scumbag” Jaystation for allegedly faking girlfriend’s death – Dexerto

    H3H3 blasts “scumbag” Jaystation for allegedly faking girlfriend’s death ImJaystation, H3H3 Highlights – YouTubeYouTuber “Jaystation” has come under fire for allegedly faking the death of his own girlfriend — something that Ethan Klein, member of YouTube comedy duo H3H3, isn’t too fond of. Jaystation, known across the online entertainment space for his divisive videos (which include him holding ‘seances’ with deceased celebrities), has once again sparked controversy for another contentious upload. The YouTuber, who currently boasts over 5.5 million subscribers, claimed that his girlfriend Alexia had been killed by a drunk driver, as told in his emotional January 22 video titled, “My Girlfriend Alexia has died… *Rest in Paradise*.” However, her purported death was hotly contested, as another video had been posted to his second channel that features a very much alive Alexia. Due to this fact and his storied past, many criticized Jaystation for appearing to falsify his partner’s death for views. One of his biggest critics has been Ethan Klein, who went on a brutal rant during an episode of his H3H3 podcast with wife Hila Klein. While the outrage surrounding Jaystation is no secret, Klein was firm on his stance on the subject, labeling the YouTuber as “scum” and entertaining the idea that the entire storyline had been fabricated to gain subscribers. “He’s just driving subs!” Ethan noticed as Jaystation said he’d been “so close” to reaching one million subscribers on his secondary channel. “What a f**king scumbag! He’s barely talking about her. …This guy would murder his own grandma if it got him more subscribers.” The duo also speculated that Jaystation would bring Alexia “back from the dead” after a short break, further adding to his already bursting portfolio of purported ‘seances’ and talks with late celebrities — or pinning her death on their possible breakup. “He’s the trashiest person, not [just] on YouTube, but possibly alive today,” Klein said of the YouTuber. With Jaystation even uploading a video visiting his girlfriend’s memorial site, it comes as little surprise that critics are either accusing him of monetizing her passing or faking a serious matter for views, adding yet another chapter to his list of questionable uploads.

  • H3H3 Blasts YouTube for New Subscription Box Algorithm – Dexerto

    H3H3 Blasts YouTube for New Subscription Box Algorithm Ethan Klein from H3H3 Productions has blasted YouTube for their recent changes to optimizing subscription boxes in new ways. A number of YouTubers have expressed disappointment in recent weeks with the decision at YouTube to alter the current subscription feed, which make it more difficult for subscribers to see new videos. Klein, who has a history of making videos complaining about YouTube, has picked up the camera once again to tear into the video sharing site for their emphasis on pushing hand picked content. Prior to the new changes, subscribers could go to their subscription feed and find a chronological list of the latest content uploaded by channels they have chosen to subscribe to. Klein doesn’t just focus on the changes to the subscription algorithm, but also goes after YouTube for all of their “optimization” changes. He also believes that the new subscription algorithm has the potential to in fact make channels invisible to their subscribers. He reckons the subscription box feed will soon operate like the home page and sidebar of YouTube, “completely up to YouTube, nobody knows how it works.” The sub feed was the last place that was untouched by YouTube’s “optimization”. Now YT can make ur channel completely invisible even to ur own subscribers. Stop wasting our time @TeamYouTube – just erase the sub button already and show us what you want us to watch. pic.twitter.com/FKcE3XUplc — Ethan Klein (@h3h3productions) May 24, 2018 “YouTube finally now has full control over what content you see It means people who are subscribed to you, notified to you, can actually not have access to your content, if YouTube decides its not what they want you to see. Now YouTube can make your channel completely invisible even to your own subscribers. The sub box, was the one place users knew what to expect, but now, YouTube is taking control of that as well.” Klein sarcastically exclaims YouTube should “remove the subscription feature altogether and just show us the content you want us to watch.” YouTube noted that they are experimenting with these changes, and they may not be permanent. Klein believes that this change to the site could potentially ‘ruin’ YouTube and lead to a sever decline in users.

  • H3H3 and KEEMSTAR’s heated YouTube feud explained – Dexerto

    H3H3 and KEEMSTAR’s heated YouTube feud explained YT: DramaAlert/H3H3ProductionsEthan ‘H3H3’ Klein and Daniel ‘KEEMSTAR’ Keem are two of America’s biggest YouTube stars, who have recently been engaged in a very public and personal feud. But why are the pair at odds? Who are H3H3 and KEEMSTAR? Both are immensely popular YouTubers. At the time of writing, KEEMSTAR’s channel ‘DramaAlert’ sits at just over 5.5 million subscribers, while Klein’s main channel has over 6.5 million. KEEMSTAR has amassed his following by covering internet ‘drama’ – essentially reporting on news and conflicts within the YouTube, streaming and esports communities. In contrast, the majority of H3H3’s content is based around reacting to videos and satirizing online culture. He often appears alongside his wife, Hila. The pair have publicly criticized one another in the past. The origins of this recent feud go back years, to older comments made by H3H3, that Keem interpreted as targeting friends of his. While the two have never been friendly, they have more or less quietly coexisted on the internet. That is, until May 19, 2020, when Klein released a 46-minute video about KEEMSTAR. H3H3’s video on KEEMSTAR The video details multiple transgressions on Keem’s behalf, seeing Klein criticize the YouTuber for comments and behavior he has exhibited in the past. Back in 2016, Keem made a video making very serious, yet unfounded, allegations about streamer ‘RSGlory AndGold’. The video was swiftly deleted after the mistake was realized, but the streamer states that he is still harassed over the incident to this day. H3H3 includes clips of Keem, a year after the original mistake, telling the streamer to “f**k off” for commenting on the harassment he still receives. Klein also criticized Keem’s behavior towards late YouTuber Desmond ‘Etika’ Amofah, who tragically took his own life in June 2019. Footage included in Klein’s video shows Keem speaking to Etika on his Drama Alert show, and commenting on how Etika has “lost his mind”. After Etika’s suicide, Keem responded compassionately, asking for viewers to stop forcing him to explain himself when he was mourning a friend. H3H3 also added clips of Keem allegedly leaking personal information pertaining to personalities he was clashing with, and admitting to ‘doxxing’ multiple people. Klein responded to Keem’s allegations of “felony fraud” by speaking to Starbreeze’s Global Brand Director on-camera to prove his innocence. KEEMSTAR responds to H3H3 Following the publication of Klein’s video, Keem promptly stated his intention to respond. On May 20, he published a video entitled ‘H3H3 lies’. The video, the first of two KEEMSTAR is set to make in response to Klein, deals primarily with the accusations that Keem contributed to the death of Etika. In the video Keem cites a text message that appears to be from Etika’s mother, in which she absolves Keem of any responsibility for her son’s death. The text states that Etika wanted to make the episode of Drama Alert “both memorable and exciting”, and that he “loved” Keem’s internet show. Keem also included multiple screenshots of tweets that Klein did not include in his video, that he says show his support and friendship for Etika, prior to his tragic death. A video of Etika showing affection for KEEMSTAR is also included. He concludes that Ethan Klein took multiple statements out of context, and that his friendship with Etika was always there, even if it was not that obvious to the general public. As previously mentioned, Keem has stated that his responses to H3H3 will involve a second part, in which he gives his side to the other allegations made. H3H3 doubles down On May 21, before Keemstar’s second video went live, Klein made another video entitled ‘Nuclear Fallout – Keemstar’. In the video, H3H3 criticizes Keem for allegations he made against YouTuber Bashur, and portraying himself as a “victim”. Klein also defendended himself against allegations of going after KEEMSTAR’s sponsors, by including clips of Keem criticizing the sponsors of Soar Gaming when the organization had several accusations made against it. Keem responds, again On May 24, Keem uploaded his second response video to H3H3. The 24 minute video, entitled ‘Ethan Klein Detached from Reality! – H3H3’ sees Keem respond to the other allegations made by Klein, not just those relating to the death of Etika. In the video, Keem criticized Klein for his own comments made about the Catholic Church and YouTuber Patrice Wilson. He suggested that Klein is hypocritical to accuse Keem of unfounded allegations against individuals, because he has done similar things in the past. The Drama Alert star also defended himself against the ‘doxxing’ allegations, arguing they were only carried out against toxic YouTubers who were attacking other people through ‘swatting’ and ‘cease and desist’ letters. We will continue to update you on the situation as it changes.

  • H3H3 banned on YouTube after video classed “too dangerous to watch” – Dexerto

    H3H3 banned on YouTube after video classed “too dangerous to watch” YouTube: H3H3 ProductionsYouTube star Ethan Klein revealed that his account ‘H3H3Productions’ has been banned from posting for a week, after one of his old videos was marked “too dangerous to watch” following alleged mass reporting. H3H3’s Ethan Klein has gained popularity over the years with his gossip-style videos, as well as a bit of drama between him and other creators. Because of his often controversial content, H3H3 has gained the attention of quite a few people who have chosen to dislike him, and throughout the years have mass reported his videos in an alleged attempt to get his channel removed. On December 20, Ethan Klein revealed that his account ‘H3H3Productions’ has been banned from posting for a week after an old video was allegedly mass reported, causing YouTube to mark it as “too dangerous to watch.” H3H3 banned on YouTube On top of being banned from posting for a week, Klein also revealed that the Christmas podcasts that they’ve been planning for a month will not be happening at all. In a series of Tweets, he explained what was happening: “Our final Christmas podcasts that we’ve been planning for a month will not be happening. We just randomly got a strike because a video we reacted to over a year ago was deemed “too dangerous to watch.” “They won’t even tell me what it was. Cant upload for a week.” https://twitter.com/h3h3productions/status/1473034134251442176?s=20 The issue doesn’t stop there, though. According to the H3H3 host, the video that YouTube issued a strike for is still available to be watched on the website with an added age restriction. After he explained that he doesn’t understand why they are being penalized so heavily, the creator pleaded with the platform: “Please reconsider your decision, it has a tremendously negative effect on our business and community during an important time.” In his final tweet, Ethan wrote to the alleged trolls that he’s been dealing with: “With any luck, you’ll have our channel erased by Christmas.” https://twitter.com/h3h3productions/status/1473037510334816265?s=20 After many of his friends and fans pleaded to him to appeal the decision, he posted an update shortly after the original tweets stating that YouTube denied his appeal, and they are stuck with the one-week posting ban. He further provided thoughts on the situation: “That’s the way it goes when you dedicate ur life to YouTube, have 10 full-time employees, owe rent on ur studio, & have 1000s of paying members… Merry Christmas.” This isn’t the first bit of YouTube drama that the channel has suffered from recently. On December 14, they announced that they are suing a Korean media company for issuing copyright on one of his videos that featured their work — despite it being a clip of them reacting to an H3H3 video.

  • H3CZ reveals insane $10k basketball bet with Dr Disrespect – Dexerto

    H3CZ reveals insane $10k basketball bet with Dr Disrespect Instagram: heczOpTic Chicago founder and NRG co-CEO Hector ‘H3CZ’ Rodriguez has revealed the insane 1v1 bet Dr Disrespect has offered him — and it’s got to be settled on the court. Dr Disrespect is a man that knows no boundaries in the physical or gaming worlds. He’s 6’8”, and you’ll often hear him brag of his 37” vertical leap, which makes him not only a genetic masterpiece but built for a record-breaking career in the NBA. Instead, he’s dedicated himself to a life of gaming entertainment as the 1993-94 back-to-back Blockbuster gaming champion, and you’ll often see millions watching him in the arena when he’s livestreaming. According to H3CZ, though, he’s not all talk, and actually made a huge bet with him to face off on the court. During a vlog with some of the OpTic team ahead of the CDL launch later in January, H3CZ revealed the wager Doc had made with him. “No one in esports can beat me [at basketball],” Rodriguez said. “Especially, exclusively, and I am literally meaning this, Dr Disrespect.” He continued: “Dr Disrespect bet me $10,000 that he could beat me in a game up to 11 by one, me having 10. I don’t know who this guy thinks he is. I think the two-time blockbuster thing got to his head.” Topic starts at 6:30 It’s unclear whether H3CZ took the Doc up on his pretty generous offer, but this is definitely something we would love to see. It definitely raises the question of how good the Two-Time really is, but surely that’s an offer you take if you only need to score one point. Hopefully, it’s not happened yet, because this would make incredible viewing, and would probably take some doing from H3CZ to get the better of the Doc — though stranger things have definitely happened.

  • H3CZ saves family puppy from drowning in swimming pool – Dexerto

    H3CZ saves family puppy from drowning in swimming pool Former OpTic Gaming CEO Hector ‘H3CZ’ Rodriguez has shared a heroic episode of him saving a young puppy from potential drowning, after the pet jumped into his backyard pool. Outside of his love for video games and esports, H3CZ is a dog lover too, with he and wife Jude proudly showing off their litter of canine friends in many of their vlogs. Among them is great dane Henry, who stands almost as tall as a grown man, and who Hector loves to show off in his videos. But, he takes care of dogs in all shapes and sizes, including his mother-in-law’s tiny puppy, with whom the potentially dangerous incident occurred. On January 3, Rodriguez explained that he had been looking after the “baby” puppy, who, as well as being the “cutest thing ever”, had never seen much of the world outside of a cage. While playing in the garden with the other dogs, the puppy, named Yusimi, seemed to get a little overexcited, and lunged into the pool, before presumably flapping for dear life. Without a moment’s hesitation, Hector dived in, fully clothed, to come to the dog’s rescue, hoisting her above the cold water while now completely drenched. I’m a hero… I was walking Yusimi (mom inlaw’s girl dog) cutest thing ever by the way, she was a baby who’d never seen anything but a cage… or a pool… it was 50 degrees… @jud3 saved both of our lives by providing towels. pic.twitter.com/T9Y3822d0X — OpTic HecZ (@H3CZ) January 3, 2020 “I’m a hero,” he proclaimed, before also thanking his wife Jude for saving both their lives with prompt towels to dry off and warm up. Although it might be presumed that dogs, even puppies, would naturally ‘doggie paddle’ in water, the temperature of the water can be a major issue. H3CZ explained that Yusimi was already far out and submerged by almost a foot. by the time she jumped I realized that she had cleared a good 2 feet out and 1 foot submerged. My only hesitation was how cold I was about to be. — OpTic HecZ (@H3CZ) January 4, 2020 Like humans, dogs can be vulnerable to cold water shock, leaving them stiff and unable to swim, or even worse, prolonged exposure to cold water could lead to hypothermia. Small breeds and puppies are even more vulnerable to cold water exposure. Typically, it’s advised that if water is too cold for a human, it’s probably also too cold for a dog. Even on warmer days, the water temperature can still be low. Jude may indeed have been a lifesaver with the towels too, as it’s crucial to dry a dog off immediately if they have taken a dip in cold water, as the dampness mixed with the air could also lead to hypothermia. H3CZ’s quick thinking and sacrificing his dry clothing may well have saved this puppy’s life, and serves as a PSA to any other dog owners. He’s not the only dog lover at the helm of esports either. Envy founder and CEO Mike ‘Hastr0’ Rufial made a large donation to a charity for service dogs in late 2019.

  • H3CZ explains why Dallas Cowboys should hire TimTheTatman as commentator – Dexerto

    H3CZ explains why Dallas Cowboys should hire TimTheTatman as commentator YouTube, HECZ/YouTube, TimTheTatmanOptic Gaming CEO Hector “H3CZ” Rodriguez explained why he feels the Dallas Cowboys should hire popular streamer TimTheTatman as commentator on the latest episode of the Eavesdrop Podcast. Episode 110 of the Eavesdrop Podcast has been uploaded to H3CZ’s YouTube channel, this time with special guest Dr. Ben ‘The Bentist’ Winters. The two went back and forth about Twitch’s recent streamer revenue leak and how much people need to innovate and be original to make their way to the top of the list. During their conversation, they used TimTheTatman’s recent signing with Complexity Gaming as an example of ways to stand out from other creators. The Optic CEO then shared his thoughts on what the Dallas Cowboys should do to retain viewership with the younger demographic. TimTheTatman as NFL commentator Starting off the conversation topic, H3CZ said: “At some point, the Cowboys are going to have to realize that as much as the current commentators are good for current fans, the younger demographic being introduced to football would be better suited if Tim was a commentator.” As The Bentist mentioned that Tim already does NFL streams on his channel, Rodriguez explained that he could have his assistant Wipz on the field relaying information to him as he commentated the game. (Clip at 28:43 for mobile users) “These sort of tokens are available for everybody. Instead of hating on someone making millions of dollars a year, focus on yourself,” Rodriguez mentioned. Since becoming co-owner of Complexity with Dallas Cowboys owner Jerry Jones, Tim has streamed from the AT&T Stadium with running-back Ezekiel Elliot, showing that he may have a connection with the players of the team to help build a relationship between them and the creator’s fans. It’s unknown whether or not Tim has had this idea up his sleeve, we’ll have to wait to see what he announces next.

  • H3CZ reveals how much Nadeshot owed him after KSI vs Logan Paul 2 bet – Dexerto

    H3CZ reveals how much Nadeshot owed him after KSI vs Logan Paul 2 bet KSICall of Duty days. As long-time friends, H3CZ was crashing at the 100 Thieves content house in LA throughout the weekend of the international spectacle that saw YouTuber’s KSI and Logan Paul throw down in a boxing ring for the second time. The rematch was a closely contested bout for the most part. Being a mere six-round affair as opposed to the traditional 12-round boxing stipulation, every minute of the fight was crucial in swaying the scorecards of the judges at ringside. Unfortunately for Logan Paul, an outrageous foul in the fourth round saw two points being deducted which ultimately cost him the split decision loss. Fortunately for those backing the British YouTuber however, bets placed on the underdog KSI were ready to cash-out some big winnings and H3CZ’s friendly bets were no different. “Oh my God I just won six grand. One thousand from [Nadeshot] and five thousand from Rob,” he shared with his vlog, completely elated at the result. If the foul hadn’t occurred and points were not deducted from Logan Paul, there’s a very good chance that fans could have been treated to another draw. Narrowly dodging a repeat result, H3CZ explained how he was “so hyped, no draw, that’s on JJ one thousand percent, so happy.” Following the second match, Logan Paul expressed how it didn’t “feel like a loss” this time around. Echoing the same sentiment, Jake Paul demanded: “the committee should contest it and if they don’t flip that decision, then it’s bullsh*t!“ Having already been mocked by fans online for his excuses of being under the weather on the day of the event, there’s no telling how Logan Paul will look to rebound. KSI jokingly offered a novel suggestion of fighting former WWE Champion CM Punk under MMA rules, so perhaps that might be in the cards down the line. For mobile readers, the relevant segment begins at 11:45 below. Taking a thousand dollars from the owner of 100 Thieves is no small matter but the two are on the best of terms so the gamble was purely for a laugh and nothing more. In a much less amicable situation though, two other internet personalities were caught brawling in the midst of the LA crowd before the main event walked out.

  • H1ghsky1’s manager blames Tfue for underage bans following FaZe lawsuit – Dexerto

    H1ghsky1’s manager blames Tfue for underage bans following FaZe lawsuit FaZe ClanAmid the drama of Turner ‘Tfue‘ Tenney’s lawsuit against FaZe Clan, their youngest member H1ghSky1 was banned from Twitch, Twitter, and now Discord, according to his manager, as he was revealed to be underage. While most eyes have been on what is going on with Tfue and FaZe, one FaZe Clan member, who was mentioned in the initial lawsuit, is suffering all sorts of issues. H1ghsky1 has been banned from Twitch and Twitter already due to the revelation that he was underage, and many are pinning the blame for this on Tfue since he initially brought it to light. The host of Drama Alert, Daniel ‘KEEMSTAR‘ Keem, likes to remind people that Tfue got H1ghsky banned and now it looks like H1ghsky’s manager is even jumping on that bandwagon. In a direct message KEEMSTAR revealed to Twitter, we learned that the young pro’s Discord account has been suspended as he is not old enough to have an account on the platform. In a now-deleted tweet, KEEMSTAR revealed H1ghsky’s manager blames Tfue for the banning, and thanks Keem for showing his support through all the turmoil. “Tfue got patric’s discord banned too btw,” read the DM. “Also, Patric just wanted me to tell you Thank you so much for ur support. The kid really appreciates you and send his love. he says he can’t wait to see you soon.” Since his ban on Twitch, Highsky has started streaming on YouTube instead, as the platform allows minors to stream as long as they have a parent present to supervise. While this is quite the setback in his career, Highsky still has a bright future in Fortnite and with FaZe, as they haven’t stopped supporting him through all of this. The lawsuit against FaZe and Tfue is still ongoing, and we don’t yet know what impact, if any, it will have on the esports giant.

  • OpTic’s H3CZ explains that he’s “on Nade’s side” in falling out with NICKMERCS – Dexerto

    OpTic’s H3CZ explains that he’s “on Nade’s side” in falling out with NICKMERCS H3CZ – YouTube / Valkyrae – InstagramIt’s no longer a secret that popular streamer Nick ‘NICKMERCS‘ Kolcheff and 100 Thieves CEO Matt ‘Nadeshot‘ Haag have had a falling out, and OpTic Gaming‘s Hector ‘H3CZ‘ Rodriguez has given his take on their situation. One of the biggest topics of discussion in the esports community over the past few days has been the public discord between NICKMERCS and Nadeshot. On May 24, Nick announced that he had parted ways with 100Thieves after three years with the organization, revealing that he wants “nothing to do with” Nadeshot. The sudden nature of the split stunned fans, and it was a topic brought up in the March 27 episode of H3CZ’s popular ‘The Eavesdrop Podcast,’ in which the CEO said that he was siding with Nadeshot in this instance. “Knowing Nadeshot for as long as I have, there’s no way that I can offer an opinion other than that fact that I’m on Nade’s side,” he said. While he had complimentary things to say about NICKMERCS and the way he conducts himself, H3CZ dropped several pointed hints that he may not have totally agreed with making such a public video about matters that took place behind closed doors. “I don’t know the ins and outs of what their relationship was like,” he said. “Every single time I asked Nade, Nade’s like ‘it’s between me and him, I got nothing to say.’ Which is honorable as fuck! To me, behind closed doors, shut door, he’s like ‘nah it’s between me and him.’” However, H3CZ made sure not speak too directly on the situation at hand, considering that he remains close friends with Nadeshot and has probably been privy to information that the 100T CEO may not want spoken about in a public forum. One thing he did make clear was how regrettable the split was, believing that Nick and Nade could have been a powerful duo in esports. “It would have been an incredible duo-ship right there,” he said. “I think they would have done fucking amazing work together.” You can check out the entire episode 30 of The Eavesdrop Podcast below, with the segment about NICKMERCS starting at the 22:22 mark. Why did NICKMERCS leave 100 Thieves? NICKMERCS first joined 100 Thieves back in 2016, when the organization was nowhere close to being as prominent as it is today. Three years later, Nick announcing that he was leaving the org, revealing that things hadn’t worked out the way he had envisioned when he first joined, which ultimately disintegrated his relationship with Nadeshot. Overall, it has been a major period of transition for Nick, who also recently moved back to his home state of Michigan, where he plans on continuing to build on what has been a very successful past year-and-a-half.

    h1ghsky1 spotted inside Clout House amid FaZe Clan legal battles H1ghsky1, Instagram / FaZe ClanFortnite Battle Royale pro Turner ‘Tfue’ Tenney has filed a lawsuit against esports giant FaZe Clan over his “oppressive contract” – but that is far from the only legal battle the org is facing, with one of their youngest players admitting to lying about their age to secure a spot on the team. FaZe’s Patrick ‘h1ghsky1’ stirred controversy in late May, after Tfue’s lawsuit alleged that the player was a mere 11 years old upon signing with the group, who had touted him as a 13-year-old Fortnite aficionado. The young pro’s Twitch and Twitter accounts were suspended shortly thereafter, with h1ghsky1 later admitting during a YouTube stream that he had, indeed, lied about his age to “follow his dreams” – but the drama didn’t mark the end of his stint with FaZe. H1ghsky1’s involvement with FaZe Clan stirred up controversy after Tfue’s lawsuit alleged that he was signed at the young age of 11 – an accusation that was later confirmed by the youngster.600 H1ghsky1 was later seen inside the Clout House (the California-based mansion shared by members of FaZe Clan) in the midst their legal scuffles, as evidenced by a video uploaded by FaZe Kay on June 15. In the video, the youngster can be seen running about the house, elated about the reinstatement of his Instagram account, which was also suppressed in light of Tfue’s lawsuit. H1ghSky1 is so happy he got his Instagram back!! pic.twitter.com/njV2r8zh1V — FaZe Kay (@FaZeKay) June 15, 2019 With reports confirming that h1ghsky1 was 11 years old as of being signed to the group in mid-March, many critics began to question the legality of his signage, prompting FaZe co-owner Ricky Banks and Drama Alert’s KEEMSTAR to stake $10,000 each on the legitimacy of the operation. With California labor laws requiring a special permit for performers under the age of twelve, matters are a bit murky in regards to h1ghsky1’s involvement with the group, especially considering that he doesn’t actually live in California – although it could be argued that much of his work for FaZe takes place in the state. H1ghsky1 has had a roller coaster of a time with FaZe Clan, with co-owner Ricky Banks taking the youngster to meet such celebrities as Marshmello and rapper Lil Yachty.https://www.dexerto.com/entertainment/faze-banks-surprises-13-year-old-fortnite-pro-h1ghsky-celebrity-meet-up-504534 It has since been revealed that other contracts offered to Tfue by FaZe were illegal, as stated by his lawyer, Bryan Freedman, during an interview with theScore Esports on June 14. “Those contracts provide for illegal procurement without a talent agency license,” Freedman said of the matter. “Even worse, those contracts attempted to get Turner to waive the California Talent Agency act. No one could possibly sign something like that because it would be so illegal.” While h1ghsky1’s adorable enthusiasm quickly won hearts across the net, his situation is now being met with ample criticism in wake of Tfue’s legal action against FaZe.

  • Gypsy Rose under fire for plans to get plastic surgery to look more “feminine” – Dexerto

    Gypsy Rose under fire for plans to get plastic surgery to look more “feminine” Instagram: peopleGypsy Rose announced she will be undergoing plastic surgery amid her separation from her husband Ryan Anderson, but fans are wondering where the money is coming from. After recently announcing her separation from her husband, Ryan Blanchard, just three months after an early prison release, Gypsy Rose revealed even more shocking news. “I’m going through a personal transformation journey currently and that includes a physical one, too,” Gypsy Rose told People. Nadiya Vizier, a close friend of Gypsy Rose’s, also commented on the upcoming cosmetic procedure, which is scheduled for April 5. “The main thing is that she wanted a more feminine-looking nose. She just wants to fix it up and give it a more feminine look,” Nadiya said. Nadiya also mentioned that Gypsy Rose is “a bit nervous,” but “happy” she’ll be getting her dream transformation. Gypsy Rose’s plastic surgery journey will be featured on Lifetime’s new docuseries, Gypsy Rose: Life After Lock Up. “Wish me luck with my surgery and watch the whole thing this summer on Gypsy Rose: Life After Lock Up,” she said. After social media heard about Gypsy Rose’s plastic surgery plans, many people asked where the money was coming from. “Where is this person that just got out of prison getting money for all this stuff?” asked one. “Kills mother… makes a lot of money from it… gets plastic surgery. Makes perfect sense,” said another. “Ex-con pays well,” someone added. Amid Gypsy Rose’s physical transformation, she’s been seen with her ex-fiancé, Ken Urker. The two recently got matching tattoos and were seen holding hands while shopping. Gypsy Rose admitted in The Prison Confessions of Gypsy Rose Blanchard that she was still in contact with Ken despite being engaged to Ryan in 2022. She even revealed she still had feelings for Ken at the time. With Gypsy Rose undergoing cosmetic surgery, only time will tell who she ends up with. Will her newfound confidence cause her to leave Ken? Or will they soon be married?

  • Gypsy Rose slams “panini-pressed” TikToker for not having a man in viral rant – Dexerto

    Gypsy Rose slams “panini-pressed” TikToker for not having a man in viral rant Instagram: gypsy.rose.blanchard.instaGypsy Rose clapped back at an influencer, saying she wasn’t threatened by their antics because she had a man and they didn’t. Gypsy Rose is going viral for a social media post she made about TikToker Flawless Nina, who allegedly tried to steal her boyfriend, Ken Urker. In her online rant, Gypsy told the TikToker that she was “so not threatened” by them. With a confident look on her face and a smirk, she went into detail about her relationship with Ken. “My man wouldn’t touch you with a ten-foot pole… and last time I checked, you don’t have a man.” She continued, “So it looks like you’re the one that’s panini-pressed… call a spade a spade, honey.” Gypsy, who was wearing black lace lingerie during her spiel, also called Nina out for being mad because she’s the one who has a “Chad.” She was referring to the term that means a superior and confident male. Gypsy and her boyfriend Ken got together in March 2024 after she separated from her husband Ryan Anderson. She and Ryan were only together for three months outside of her seven-year sentence for the second-degree murder of her mom, Dee Dee Blanchard. However, Ryan and Gypsy got married while she was in prison during a ceremony in 2022 after they became pen pals. Much like her relationship with her ex-husband, Gypsy and her current boyfriend Ken met while she was in prison after he wrote her a letter in 2017. They then became “fast friends” and were engaged in 2018 when he popped the question during a prison visit. However, their engagement ended in 2019 when Ken called it off. “Panini-pressed” TikToker sets the record straight Flawless Nina, who is a beauty and gossip influencer on TikTok, joined the TMZ Verified Podcast on June 20 when she revealed she was at the center of the Gypsy Rose drama. Allegedly, Gypsy and Ken were live-streaming when Ken asked Nina out for drinks. She said he played it off like he and Gypsy were “just friends.” Two days after the livestream, Ken sent Nina a direct message to show that he was interested in her. However, Nina told the podcast that it was a “hard no” when it came to her feelings for Ken, as they were nonexistent.

  • Gypsy Rose under fire after revealing pregnancy with Ken Urker before divorce – Dexerto

    Gypsy Rose under fire after revealing pregnancy with Ken Urker before divorce Instagram: gypsy.rose.blanchard.instaGypsy Rose announced she was pregnant with Ken Urker’s baby, but netizens were more concerned for her ex-husband, Ryan Anderson, as the two are not divorced yet. Gypsy Rose announced to her millions of social media followers on Tuesday, July 9, that she and her ex-fiancé, Ken Urker, are expecting their first child. “Well… the rumors are true! Ken and I are so excited to start our family together,” she wrote in her emotional announcement on YouTube. During her reveal, she shared that she is currently 11 weeks pregnant and is expecting to be due in January 2025. Gypsy Rose then detailed that her and Ken’s “blessing” of a pregnancy was unexpected and not planned at all. She’s even experienced symptoms that have been way out of the norm for her. Initially, she suspected that she was pregnant after her craving for orange juice became stronger. And when she noticed her severe mood swings (which Ken has been supportive of), it all made sense to her. Though it took time for Gypsy Rose to realize what was going on, Ken picked up on it right away and urged her to take a pregnancy test. She also noted that her journey has been a breeze so far, except for how tired she’s become, although she only has mild morning sickness The woman even detailed that nothing else matters – now that she’s pregnant. “I feel a shift in myself. When I found out that I was pregnant, none of anything else mattered.” “I know that there are going to be people who feel like I’m not ready to be a mother, and I don’t know if anyone is really ready to be a mother.” Gypsy Rose continued to say that her main concern was having a healthy baby and a positive relationship with Ken. She even brought up her mom, Dee Dee Blanchard, whom she was convicted of murdering in 2015. “I want to be everything my mother wasn’t,” she said. And though both she and Ken grew up in an unstable and broken family, Gypsy Rose emphasized that she and Ken would be sticking together no matter what. “We’re not breaking because we are a family now.” Netizens have since reacted to her viral news by saying they ‘felt bad’ for her ex-husband, Ryan Anderson. “I feel bad for your ex,” quipped one. “Ryan’s def punching the walls right now,” added another. Gypsy Rose and Ryan met as pen pals while she was serving her seven-year second-degree murder sentence. Though they were married for two years, they filed for divorce in April, just three months after she was released from prison. Though many reactions were about Ryan and how getting pregnant might not have been her ‘best move,’ Gypsy Rose found some support from her following. “Y’all need to let her have her moment… congratulations to both of you,” wrote one. “You are going to experience one of life’s greatest blessings and you will be surprised how much you get to live and experience through your child’s eyes,” added another. Though Gypsy Rose and Ken Urker were once engaged after they met as pen pals in prison, there has been no confirmation on whether or not she and Ken are going to get married. However, she made one thing very clear in her announcement, “I am a mother now – and I’m happy.”

  • Gypsy Rose debunks marriage rumors after fans spot Ken wearing wedding band – Dexerto

    Gypsy Rose debunks marriage rumors after fans spot Ken wearing wedding band Instagram: gypsyrosemediaFans speculated that Gypsy Rose and Ken Urker secretly tied the knot. That is, until she set the record straight. Gypsy Rose Blanchard and her boyfriend of five months, Ken Urker, enjoyed a night out at the popular Japanese restaurant, Nobu. After their “lovely evening” together, Gypsy took to Instagram on September 8th to express how nice their date was, adding a couples’ photo of her and Ken. As fans took a closer look at the picture, they were quick to notice one particular detail that they’d never seen in previous photos. Ken, who Gypsy initially met in 2017 while she was serving her seven-year prison sentence for the second-degree murder of her mom Dee Dee Blanchard, was wearing what appeared to be a black wedding band around his ring finger. “Is that a wedding band on Ken?” questioned a fan. Gypsy then promptly responded, “It is a promise ring that I gave to him.” Netizens also asked why Ken was wearing a wedding band if they weren’t married, leading some fans to defend the couple. “It doesn’t matter why he’s wearing a wedding band. It’s what he wants to do,” wrote one. After the rumors about Gypsy potentially being married or engaged went viral, sources close to her told TMZ that the black band was purchased by Zales for $275. It was also reported that Gypsy gave Ken the promise ring after their gender reveal on August 10th when they found out they’d be having a girl in January 2025. Sources added that Gypsy doesn’t feel that it’s right to wear an engagement ring on her ring finger until her divorce is finalized with Ryan Anderson. She and Ryan married in July 2022. However, their relationship ended just months after their nuptials. Fans grew concerned for them in January after an interview of theirs went viral. During this, Gypsy nudged Ryan after he was asked a question – leading many to believe something wasn’t right.

  • Gypsy Rose ‘separates’ from husband Ryan Anderson three months after prison release – Dexerto

    Gypsy Rose ‘separates’ from husband Ryan Anderson three months after prison release Instagram: goss.ieGypsy Rose announced her separation from her husband, Ryan Anderson, just three months after being released from prison. Gypsy Rose married Ryan Anderson while she was in prison. The two tied the knot in 2022, just months before Gypsy’s early release in 2023. Gypsy and Ryan had been pen pals since 2020 after the special education teacher from Louisiana initiated their communication. However, in recent days, according to Gypsy’s private Facebook account, she and Ryan are currently going through a “separation.” “People have been asking what is going on in my life. Unfortunately my husband and I are going through a separation and I moved in with my parents home down the bayou,” Gypsy wrote. As her post continued, Gypsy said, ”I have the support of my family and friends to help guide me through this. I am learning to listen to my heart. Right now I need time to let myself find… who I am.” Though the two were only together for three months since Gypsy’s release from prison, fans questioned their relationship during her ‘after-prison press tour.’ During one interview, Gypsy could be seen squeezing Ryan’s hand for including his two cents. After seeing the clip, fans claimed Gypsy was a “monster” like her mother Dee-Dee. In November 2022, Gypsy also filed for an annulment to “end” her marriage to Ryan. In a statement, she wrote how she believed they were in “different places” at the time. Though Gypsy recently announced her and Ryan’s official separation via social media, she has not commented further, at this time, about why they are calling it quits.

  • Gymshark athletes expose viral fitness hacks in hilarious YouTube video – Dexerto

    Gymshark athletes expose viral fitness hacks in hilarious YouTube video mattdoesfitness, Instagram / Shake Weight for MenBodybuilders and YouTubers “MattDoesFitness” and Zack Perna tested the mettle of the net’s most viral and “obscene” fitness products — but do they live up to the hype of their infomercials? If you’ve ever channel surfed on the sofa, you’ve likely seen infamous TV spots for such items as the “shake weight,” ab stimulators, and various other items meant to take the “work” out of your workout. Boasting lofty claims and supposedly shocking results, Gymshark athlete MattDoesFitness decided to put these products’ pride to the test in a hilarious video that exposed some of television’s most widely-advertised fitness enhancers. Of course, Matt began with the “shake weight,” noting that the product felt as though it had been assembled at the now-defunct Toys-R-Us. Upon watching the informercial, both Matt and his co-host Zack Perna couldn’t help but laugh at its apparent difficulty, calling it “absolutely outrageous” and were “amazed that it’s allowed to exist.” However, the “PY Neckline” machine actually impressed Zack, who claimed that he could feel the double chin-eliminator actually working his neck muscles. “I actually feel it in my neck,” he admitted. “Dude, I’m not gonna lie, this is actually, like… I get DOMS (delayed onset muscle soreness) here!” Matt was also pleasantly surprised by the “Workout Arms” machine, admitting that it does work the triceps — although its ability to help the biceps and chest is a bit murky, in comparison. “Fair enough,” he began. “To an extent, you are engaging your triceps. Biceps, that’s mechanically impossible. Chest — if you have the weakest chest in the world.” These were far from the most outrageous product, though, with the duo later trying out the “Slim Suit,” designed to allegedly help weight loss while doing everyday tasks. To drive the ridiculousness of the suit home, the athletes wore the “duct tape” duds out in public, even using some of their newfound workout equipment in full view of confused onlookers. While some of the fitness products pleasantly surprised the Gymshark athletes, they ultimately encouraged getting results the good old-fashioned way: by hitting the gym and eating right.

  • Gypsy Rose Blanchard defends her husband from “haters” – Dexerto

    Gypsy Rose Blanchard defends her husband from “haters” Instagram: Ryan_s_anderson_Munchausen by proxy victim Gypsy Rose Blanchard took to Instagram to defend her husband from “haters” after spending eight years in prison for the murder of her mother. Gypsy Rose Blanchard was released from prison on December 28, 2023, following her conviction for her involvement in her mother’s murder, who subjected her to abuse. Blanchard spent the rest of the day following her release out shopping with her husband. Since then, the two have garnered quite a bit of attention both online and offline. Gypsy Rose Blanchard takes to Instagram to defend husband Back in November 2023, over a month before Gypsy Rose was released from prison, her husband Ryan Anderson posted a picture on Instagram that garnered many comments making jokes about him. Comments like “please be normal,” and “something off about you” were left on the post – but Gypsy was quick to defend her husband from the “haters” just a few days after being released. “Ryan, don’t listen to the haters. I love you, and you love me. We do not owe anyone anything. Our family is who matters,” she said. “If you get likes and good comments great, if you get hate then whatever because THEY DON’T MATTER. I love you besides they jealous because you are rocking my world every night…yeah I said it, the D is fire. Happy wife happy life.” Ryan was quick to respond to her comment as well, calling his haters “jealous people.” “Who said I gave a damn about what these jealous people say anyway, haha…now come get it Baby,” he responded. Since Gypsy’s release, the comments appear to be pretty positive and in support of Ryan — with many just wanting to make sure he takes care of his wife. “We are rooting for you, Ryan! Give that girl the world,” one user replied. Another said: “Pls be good to our girl Gypsy.” According to WebMD, Munchausen syndrome by proxy is a rather rare behavioral disorder that causes people — often moms — to gain attention by seeking medical help for exaggerated or made up symptoms of a child in their care. The most famous case of this disorder involves Blanchard, who in 2015 recruited her online boyfriend into killing her mother and served eight years in prison for being an accomplice.

  • Gymnast Livvy Dunne gives tearful reply to Markell Washington feud – Dexerto

    Gymnast Livvy Dunne gives tearful reply to Markell Washington feud Instagram: livvydunne / YouTube: BFFs with Dave Portnoy and Josh RichardsViral gymnast Olivia Dunne is defending herself against accusations from TikToker Markell Washington, who claims she was rude to him when he approached her for a handshake. 20-year-old Olivia Dunne is taking over the internet after skyrocketing to social media stardom in early 2023, garnering a swath of young male fans (some of whom notably swarmed outside of a January 6 gymnastics meet in an attempt to meet their idol). The Louisiana State University gymnast (affectionately known as ‘Livvy’) boasts over 6.7 million followers on TikTok and continues to appear on ‘For You Pages’ across the app… but not everyone is enamored with the college athlete. Recently, TikToker Markell Washington claimed that Dunne was rude to him while he was standing in line at Saddle Ranch in Los Angeles. According to Washington, he reached out for a handshake — only to get the stink eye in return. Markell Washington accuses Livvy Dunne of rude behavior “I reached out and tried to shake her hand, I tell you not, sis looked like this [imitates giving side eye], ‘Hi, nice to meet you — Wait, ‘Roommate,’ where did you say y’all were going?’” he explained. “We ain’t gonna hate her, that was just my only ever encounter with her, but it’s like, first encounters are everything,” he continued. “Even if she were to apologize or say she didn’t see me type sht — btch, you saw me!” (Topic begins at 53:30) Washington went on to further explain his side of the story after speaking his piece about Dunne on the BFFs Podcast, arguing that he wasn’t lying about the encounter and admitting that the entire situation was “stressing” him out. Dunne quickly took notice of Washington’s comments and gave a tearful response to the whole ordeal in a live stream on TikTok. “I just want to do my gymnastics and make content,” Dunne said. “I would never, ever… I’m not being dramatic. My feelings are hurt.” She went on to say that Josh Richards, co-host of the BFFs Podcast, FaceTimed her and apologized for the hate Dunne was receiving after the show went live. “I guess that’s what social media is,” the gymnast continued. “People can just make stuff up.” For now, it looks like public sentiment is decidedly against Dunne for her alleged treatment of Markell, with some critics claiming she exhibited discriminatory behavior toward the TikToker — who is set to be the next internet “it” girl following an NCAA rule change.

  • Gymnast Olivia Dunne set to be next big TikTok star after NCAA rule change – Dexerto

    Gymnast Olivia Dunne set to be next big TikTok star after NCAA rule change Instagram: livvydunneGymnast Olivia ‘Livvy’ Dunne is set to make it even bigger on TikTok, after an NCAA rule change in several states means it will now be possible for college athletes to profit off their own names. TikTok has become home to some of the internet’s biggest stars, with Charli D’Amelio at over 100 million followers and Addison Rae not far behind. Each of these creators has gone on to have hugely profitable careers on social media thanks to their popularity, and plenty of people want to follow in their footsteps. LSU gymnast Olivia Dunne has over a million followers on Instagram, and now four million on TikTok, but up until now college athletes in the United States were unable to take advantage of their own name and likeness through things like sponsorship opportunities. Now, the NCAA has cleared the way for student-athletes to profit off their own name thanks to a law change across several states. This means that Livvy will be able to make the most of having an already large following on social media, and as the sponsorships begin to roll in, this could mean that she gets even more popular on the platform quite rapidly. The Gymnast even got her own billboard to celebrate the change in policy, with the video showing off both her gymnastic skills and popular social media profile. “Dreams are coming true,” she wrote in the caption. On Instagram she also teased that “big things [are] coming,” so it looks like she’s planning on making the most of the opportunity to use her platform to earn money, be that on TikTok or beyond. Existing fans are ecstatic for the gymnast, and the news of the NCAA law change has no doubt brought even more followers her way, meaning there’s a good chance she’ll be gaining success at a rapid rate on social media very soon.

  • Gym-goer has internet split with viral videos of entering gym with random items – Dexerto

    Gym-goer has internet split with viral videos of entering gym with random items Instagram: Cade CombsA gym-goer has been going super viral across Instagram and TikTok as he manages to ‘enter’ gyms with a wide variety of random items, however, some viewers aren’t buying it. Checking into the gym can cause a few headaches. Some gyms allow you to scan a QR code, some want a personal code typed out on a keypad, and others need you to scan a card. So, if there are any technical issues, your workout is getting delayed. However, Instagram user Cade Combs has seemingly gotten around all of those potential problems. The gym-goer has been going viral over the last few weeks as he’s been heading to gyms like Planet Fitness and checking in with some random items. In a few of his videos, Cade swaps his gym entry card for a frying pan, swimming pool noodle, a Stanley Cup, and even a box of cereal. In all of them, he approaches the card swipe machine, swipes his random item, and then gets the beep needed to enter the gym. Man goes viral entering gyms with random items every day The gym-goer has been on over a three-week streak of not being caught as he enters the same Planet Fitness each time. Though, he has mixed in some other gyms to try and prove that the staff aren’t in on things. Some of his Instagram reels have gone super viral over the last few weeks, hitting up to 47 million views on his Honey Nut Cheerios attempt. Naturally, the videos have blown some viewers away as they can’t believe what they’re seeing. “You should scan your hand and say “beep” out loud,” one viewer urged. “No gym is safe from you,” another added. “Can’t wait for this man to check in with a trampoline or something,” another said. Other viewers aren’t buying the videos, though. “You never actually see the barcode, the card is taped to all that stuff,” one claimed. “This is Planet Fitness, people there don’t get paid enough to care lol. Try LA Fitness,” another added. Some viewers have also questioned why Cade says he has a three-week streak going but hasn’t uploaded daily videos. The gym-goer hasn’t responded to any of the questions and has continued to post his viral videos, and it doesn’t seem like he will stop anytime soon.

    Gym worker goes viral on TikTok after sharing DM from “obsessive” client TIKTOK: thatgirldray_A Gym worker went viral on TikTok for discussing workplace boundaries after she received an unsolicited DM from an “obsessive” client. In a TikTok video, which has amassed over 320,000 views, gym employee Andraya revealed a worrying Instagram message she received from a prospective client, who appeared to have found her personal profile based on her work email address. “Customer service workers should not be forced to wear a nametag with their name on it if they do not want to,” she said in the video. “Nor should their public work email be their first and last name.” “I currently work at a gym, and I had this guy sign up online for a membership,” she explained. “So I reached out to him through the work phone, and I let him know that I needed him to come into the gym to sign some papers to get his membership completed.” She continued: “We scheduled an appointment, and when we scheduled an appointment, it goes through my work email to send him a confirmation for the appointment.” The TikToker pointed out that her work email contains her first and last name, and that her first name is uncommon, making her “very easy to find.” She then shared a screenshot of the Instagram direct message that the client sent her. Click here if TikTok doesn’t load Gym worker shares worrying message from client The direct message read: “Not sure if you’re working tomorrow, but I can be in tomorrow to sign my corporate paper. Sorry I figured it’s easier to let you know via message, either way, stoked haven’t been in like… 2-3 years it’ll be good to be back.” Andraya added: “I would just like to know how it’s easier or appropriate to message me on my personal Instagram account with matters regarding the gym/work. So that message alone freaked me out.” She explained that she also had a similar issue at another job, where a customer contacted her on Facebook based on information from her name tag. “I ended up going to the cops about it, and found out that this guy had like a list of priors, like the cops know about him,” she shared. Andraya further revealed that she has a mutual Instagram follower with the gym client, who she reached out to after he sent her an unsolicited DM. “This girl comes back to me and says, ‘Run, this guy’s crazy. He’s a stalker. He’s obsessive,’” Andraya said. She continued: “And now he has my information. He knows my name. He knows where I work. And he can literally just show up to my work anytime he wants because I work at a gym.” The TikToker said she intends to speak to her manager to file an incident report.

  • Guy Beahm breaks character to address Dr Disrespect’s E3 ban – Dexerto

    Guy Beahm breaks character to address Dr Disrespect’s E3 ban Guy Beahm, TwitterPopular Twitch streamer and internet personality Guy Beahm, otherwise known as Dr Disrespect, has broken character to officially deliver a response to his bans from both Twitch and E3 2019, after broadcasting in a public bathroom at the event. Beahm posted a Twitlonger link from his personal account on July 1, nearly two weeks after his ban on June 12. “I’d like to talk about Dr Disrespect’s Twitch ban from E3,” he wrote, addressing his persona in the third person. I’d like to talk about Dr Disrespect’s Twitch ban from E3. Read: https://t.co/lxwclHxR9h — Guy Beahm (@GuyBeahm) July 1, 2019 Beahm’s Twitlonger post, as shown below, attributed his “mishap” to occuring during his first-ever IRL stream in character as the Doc – a persona that he wanted to go “all in” with during his first real-life broadcast. “When we were walking around filming at E3, we clearly weren’t thinking about the laws/repercussions of filming in the bathroom because honestly, it wasn’t in our mind frame at the time,” Beahm explained. “We were sort of ‘all in’ with the Doc livestream experience and capturing the E3 event through the character. We were so into the E3 IRL journey that we became a little blind in what’s ok and what’s not ok.” “This incident was a step back, but like anything, we learn, become stronger, and move forward,” he wrote. “If you follow the brand or myself, I hope you continue to stay with me on this vision.” 600While the Doc uploaded a humorous video recapping his E3 experience on June 13, he was relatively silent about the matter, revealing that his manager had been fired amidst the debacle – which caught the attention of major online personalities, in the process. The Doc later announced his return to Twitch on June 27, with a humorous video skit that revealed his comeback for July 8. While fans are already chomping at the bit for his return to the platform, it looks like Guy Beahm is taking some well-needed time off to reflect on his bathroom streaming debacle, as evidenced by his July 1 statement on the matter.

  • Gym bro eats dog food to get gains and instantly regrets it – Dexerto

    Gym bro eats dog food to get gains and instantly regrets it TikTok: henry.fitA fitness influencer tried eating dog food after becoming aware of the protein content in vittles specially made for man’s best friend. Fitness is quickly becoming a trending topic on social media. For example, fitness instructor Joey Swoll is a hugely prominent online figure, known for calling out toxic gym-goers and promoting positivity in the gym. However, the occasional fitness fail will also go viral, like the time one woman got stuck in an inversion table late at night and had to call 911 for help extracting herself from the machine. The latest of these ‘gym fails’ is actually a product of morbid curiosity, and it all started thanks to TikToker ‘kizaru adm.’ In a viral video, the creator warned gym goers against eating dog food after realizing how much protein it has, lest they fall into temptation. Gym bro eats dog food after realizing how much protein it has Of course, one influencer couldn’t resist after learning this information. User ‘Henryfit’ decided to take matters into his own hands after discovering that one brand of dog food purportedly contained 666 grams of protein per 200 grams (as per measurements on the MyFitnessPal app). Well, as they say, curiosity killed the cat — or, in this case, the influencer. Henryfit ultimately decided to try out a dog food protein shake to see how it would shape up as a post-workout meal… but he couldn’t stomach a bowl of dry Kibbles ‘N Bits, saying the experiment “wasn’t worth it.” That wasn’t the end of his taste test trial, though. Thanks to a commenter, Henryfit discovered that one brand of cat food apparently contained an alleged 69,000 grams of protein per 36 calories, with another boasting 8,000 grams of protein per 285 cals. (Again, these measurements were taken from the MyFitnessPal app, which, in a statement to the New York Post, Henryfit claimed must have been a “glitch.”) The influencer grabbed a can of wet cat food and gave it a spin — but couldn’t stop himself from gagging. “I would rather stay small than eat this,” he admitted. “Honestly, I don’t even want the protein anymore.” It’s worth noting that pet food is not made for human consumption, and can actually contain ingredients that are toxic to people. UK Pet Food states that pet food can contain levels of sodium that are so high, they may cause humans to develop hypertension. MyFitnessPal also commented on the situation, saying in a statement to Buzzfeed that they’ve seen a spike in people logging dog food in their apps due to a dog food trend on social media — although they didn’t say anything about the wild protein numbers in dog and cat food. Needless to say, it’s not a good idea to get your gains from pet food. Experts say that lean meats and protein powder are healthier ways to achieve this end. This is far from the first time that doctors have called out unsafe health fads online. In fact, health experts and dietitians warned against taking part in the ‘Lion Diet,’ which contains only meat, salt, and water.

After months of grinding, he has finally 100% completed a song thought to be impossible by the community. Guitar Hero streamers on Twitch have the choice of hooking up a Playstation 2 to a capture card or going the route of Clone Hero, a fan-made PC version of the game with custom-created songs. Among those songs are custom-created “tests” which are a mash-up of notes created to test a player’s ability to master the game. There are plenty of other creators that focus on the Guitar Hero clone, including one that participated in ‘Awesome Games Done Quick.’ Frif does the impossible Apart from the list of songs created to test a user’s ability is one called ‘Megalodon’, created in 2018 by a user named Jarvis9999. ‘Megalodon’ is a 19-minute gauntlet of some of the most challenging guitar content the community has ever seen. For a significant amount of time after its release, the song was mainly used for high scores and grabbing individual ‘fc,’ also known as a full combo. Frif once considered this song completely impossible, however after months of practice, the Guitar Hero pro finally managed to full combo the song from start to finish. Frif’s achievement will likely stand as one of the best accomplishments within the entire Clone Hero community for a long while. Maybe in the future, we’ll see someone attempt to challenge him.

  • Gus Johnson claims Abelina Sabrina video denouncing YouTuber “mischaracterized” him – Dexerto

    Gus Johnson claims Abelina Sabrina video denouncing YouTuber “mischaracterized” him YouTube: Gus JohnsonGus Johnson was condemned following an October 2021 video from ex-partner Abelina Sabrina claiming the YouTube star was abusive during their relationship, including through an ectopic pregnancy. Six months on, Johnson has said he has been “mischaracterized” throughout the drama, sharing his story. Abelina Sabrina’s October 2021 video titled “My ectopic pregnancy” — while not mentioning Gus Johnson by name — claimed the YouTube star across their three-year relationship was unsupportive, abusive, and uncaring, including during her pregnancy scare. Sabrina outlined situations where Johnson was dismissive of her issue, including ignoring her pain to create content instead and go out drinking. Gus Johnson did issue his own apology in a five-minute reply in January, around three months after Sabrina’s allegations were made public. However, another three months on, Johnson has defended himself in a candid interview with Twitch star ‘Paymoneywubby’. In it, the disgraced YouTube star stated Sabrina “mischaracterized” Johnson’s actions throughout the ordeal. He also explained while he doesn’t “want to negate or discredit some of the legitimate trauma she had to go through,” there were two sides to the story. “It was real. It was painful. I was just absolutely so saddened that we had to go through this shit,” he opened with. Johnson explained Sabrina and himself agreed that if she did get pregnant, they “would seek a termination” since they “didn’t have a lot of [their] personal life in order.” However, after they got the news she was expecting, Sabrina “started to express a change of her mind in regards to what we’d do with the kid. “She fully changed her mind on that, and I didn’t deal with that in a mature way. I was really fearful, and I told her that ‘I wasn’t ready for this,’” he admitted. Once it was discovered Sabrina had an ectopic pregnancy — where it starts developing outside of the uterus — he tried to be supportive. While he didn’t go with her to hospital, instead honoring a podcast obligation, he soon joined her for surgery and then recovery. “In the year that followed the surgery, she and I went to so many doctors appointments together, saw dozens of specialists. Our lives, day-to-day, were pretty heavily dictated by the situation,” he explained. “It felt like nothing was being figured out, and nothing could be done this entire time [in recovery]. There was just times I just frustrated at the problem, at the situation not getting better, and I said some stupid things. I have since apologized for these things. It’s embarrassing. “This was borne out of fear and exhaustion, but that does not make them okay.” Things in Johnson and Sabrina’s relationship soured in the years following the ectopic pregnancy, culminating in their September 2021 break-up. However, after nearly a year of couple’s therapy and them then privately parting, Sabrina expressed an interest in getting back together. “It was pretty shortly after we did privately break up that I was watching the dog one weekend to get some stuff from my house and get the dog. She surprised me because she had brought me some gifts and said she wanted to get back together with me. She was sorry it didn’t work out, and she didn’t want to give up. “I just looked at all the effort we had put in the last year, and I thought we had as much of a try as we could have, but I said, ‘I’m sorry, I’m just not there right now.’ This was before I put out the public statement on Twitter, and I was texting her that morning saying ‘I want you to weigh in on what we’re saying.’ “She screamed at me, saying, ‘put out whatever you want but don’t say it was mutual, that’s a lie.’ She slammed my door and left the house. Very shortly afterwards this video came out that talked about the worst time in both of our lives, and I just wasn’t expecting it.” The fallout from that video, Johnson believes, deeply mischaracterized him. This included Sabrina sharing posts from random people on Twitter attacking him, as well as making memes about the situation. Sabrina also reportedly approached close friends of Johnson, as well as business partners, pressuring them into distancing themselves from him. This includes Eddy Burback, who Gus did a podcast with up until October 2021. “She took to a lot of my friends and people I do business with to get them to stop working with me. I know this because in the last half a year I’ve had a number of these people come to me personally and just say that she made them feel extraordinarily uncomfortable,” he stated. Johnson did put out a sketch in December 2021 which received widespread criticism for being tone-deaf to Sabrina’s concerns — something he admitted was “never his intention” despite reaching out to others for advice. He later put out an apology video in January 2022 to address the problems publicly head on. Sabrina discredited some of Gus’ claims, including one where they went to couple’s therapy. After sharing receipts and documentation on Twitter, her tone then changed in his eyes. “There were a lot of digs at my character and my decisions,” he continued. “She tweeted out trying to discredit the counselor, calling her a TikTok therapist, and then she tried to share intimate details — completely mischaracterized and taken out of context — about things we talked about in those sessions. “She took that down immediately, and then an hour or so later, she tweeted out she was not going to continue talking about this. I think you could clearly see the contradiction in intention in those two things within the span of a few hours.” https://twitter.com/Gusbuckets/status/1485735357945552898 As Johnson looks at rebuilding his platform on YouTube — he has posted about once a week since the apology went live — he is also working towards clearing his name with those important to him. For the general public? He has “no interest in a public back-and-forth about this situation.” “I’ve been living…really afraid of what to do and uncertain of where I stand with a lot of people. I want people to know that I’m not trying to discredit anymore or start any problems with people,” he concluded. “In the last half a year, it’s been really difficult in a lot of areas and it’s eroded my mental health significantly. I’m finally getting to a place in my personal life where hopefully a lot of this has subsided, but it’s difficult as I continue to put myself on my own platforms. “It’s hurtful, embarrassing, and difficult to see a good number of people with a fully misrepresentative idea of what happened.”

  • Guitar Hero player shreds Colleen Ballinger’s apology video – Dexerto

    Guitar Hero player shreds Colleen Ballinger’s apology video Colleen BallingerA Guitar Hero player made no mistakes while performing the apology video that Colleen Ballinger (better known as Miranda Sings) uploaded on her channel. On June 28, Ballinger uploaded a video responding to the grooming allegations she has faced over the past few weeks. The accusations first appeared in 2020, but recently surfaced again after former fan Adam McIntyre revealed text conversations between him and Ballinger. In a series of YouTube videos, McIntyre discussed how Ballinger allegedly manipulated her fans into performing free labor. She would also ask her viewers about their appearances and other various inappropriate questions. Following Ballinger’s apology video, many people were furious about how she handled the situation with a strange ukulele song. Moreover, one creator took the cringy track to Guitar Hero and managed to get a perfect score. Guitar Hero player gets perfect score on Colleen’s apology song Alec ‘Acai’ Castillo – a Guitar Hero YouTuber with 1 million subscribers – uploaded a video of him rocking to Ballinger’s apology video. YouTuber Jimmehzz used Clone Hero – a Guitar Hero freeware game – to recreate her song, “Toxic Gossip Train.” “This was hard to make, because Colleen cannot keep time and it made making the chart hard,” the video’s description read. In the comment section, viewers revealed this was much better than Ballinger’s original video. “This is the only thing that could bring me to actually watch the full apology LMAO,” one YouTube user wrote. “Had I been gifted a voice like that, I would have simply made money off of it without being a weirdo to kids,” another person added. “I haven’t heard the whole apology until this video, but wow, that’s genuinely a terrible response. I didn’t hear a single ‘sorry’ for the entire video,” one person remarked.

  • Guinness World Records responds after YouTubers get random copyright strikes – Dexerto

    Guinness World Records responds after YouTubers get random copyright strikes Guinness World RecordsDays after Ducky revealed that he received a copyright strike from Guinness World Records, the company finally responded to the YouTuber’s appeal. On July 28, 2023, Ducky revealed in a post on Twitter that Guinness World Records issued a manual copyright strike on a four-year-old YouTube video of his. After doing some investigating, he found out that it was due to the use of their iconic logo in the thumbnail for the video, which had 200,000 views at the time of the strike. Just days later on August 3, 2023, Ducky revealed that GWR had finally responded to his attempts to appeal the strike, stating that it was all a mistake. GWR reponds after Ducky & others get YouTube strikes In the update post on Twitter, Ducky revealed that the company issuing copyright strikes wasn’t something that happened on purpose, and they will work towards removing his copyright strike. “Guinness World Records contacted me and let me know that the strike was a mistake due to an automated system, and that they’ve sent in a request for the strike to be removed,” he said. “Have to give props to them for a quick turnaround in getting this situation fixed.” Ducky wasn’t the only big-name YouTuber to get hit with a copyright strike from the company, either. LazarBeam, one of the most iconic Fortnite content creators on the internet, revealed just a couple of days after Ducky’s tweet that he had also been hit with a copyright strike. “Guinness world records making the psychopathic decision to strike YouTube videos that mention ‘world record’ or use their logo in thumbnails. Video was 5 years old with 26 million views,” he said. “Probably legally allowed to do this but its still sad behaviour” It’s unknown if GWR has contacted Lazar about his copyright strike like they have Ducky, but it’s safe to say he’s looking to get it removed from his channel. We’ll update you if Guinness World Records makes a public statement or we hear anything else from Lazar, Ducky, or any other YouTubers that may have been affected by the automated strike.

  • GTA V RP streamer gets racially harassed multiple times during live broadcast – Dexerto

    GTA V RP streamer gets racially harassed multiple times during live broadcast MsAshRocks, Twitter / TwitchIt’s no secret that online platforms can harbor overwhelming amounts of toxicity, and gaming communities are not exempt from this rule – but a session of GTA V RP turned out to be a harrowing experience for one player. “GTA V roleplay” is a modification of the popular Rockstar title, allowing players to get even more immersed in the game by taking on the role of an NPC and interacting with fellow roleplayers. While most RP servers enforce strict rules and boast faithful communities, some players do not adhere to these guidelines – resulting in a less-than-savory experience for one user. 600https://twitter.com/MsAshRocks/status/1143413820460638208?s=20Twitch streamer ‘MsAshRocks’ was participating in a storyline during a broadcast in late June when she became a victim of targeted, racial harassment, as her character is a black, female paramedic. One clip from her stream shows a car suddenly running over her character while she was “investigating” a crime scene, with the perpetrator shouting obscenities and racial slurs as she yells in surprise. MsAshRocks wasn’t the only one shocked by the incident: her fellow RPer’s likewise found the debacle “all kinds of fucked up,” but that wasn’t the end of the harassment, by far. The streamer was targeted yet again by another racist player, who mowed her down in a semi truck and yelled repeated racial slurs toward her – a tirade that was so appalling, MsAshRocks went silent. MsAshRocks’ fellow players deduced that there must have been two harassers, with her chat expressing shock and sympathy that she was being targeted in such a brutal manner. Despite the distressing harassment, MsAshRocks has decided to remain fiercely positive in light of the drama, choosing to be a “light” in her community to counter the hate. “You’re looking at a strong black woman that won’t take shit from anyone,” she wrote in a Tweet following the stream. “I know I am a positive light in this community and you will not dim it! EVER. I am a black woman and I deserve to be listened to. Period. I will share any and everything I encounter and overcome.” You’re looking at a strong black woman that won’t take shit from anyone :shrug::skin-tone-5:♀️ I know I am a positive light in this community and you will not dim it! EVER :blue_heart::tada: I am a black woman and I deserve to be listened to. Period. I will share any and everything I encounter and overcome.:raised_hands::skin-tone-5: pic.twitter.com/pg5F4NXynC — MsAshRocks :honey_pot: (@MsAshRocks) June 24, 2019 This wouldn’t be the first time GTA V RP has brought toxicity out of the woodwork, either; another female streamer was likewise a victim of targeted harassment, after appearing on a broadcast of popular Twitch streamer Greekgodx in late March. After Greek asked if the streamer was actually crying, toxic members of his audience flocked to her chat, accusing her of being “mentally unstable” and calling her broadcast, “the worst stream I’ve ever seen.” While Greekgodx later apologized to the streamer and denied any involvement with the toxic viewers, MsAshRocks has received no such sentiment from her harassers as of June 26.

    GTA RP streamer RatedEpicz responds to accusations of homophobia and emotional abuse RatedEpiczGTA RP streamer RatedEpicz has responded to accusations of emotional abuse and being homophobic throughout a two-year-long relationship. Facebook Gaming streamer RatedEpicz has come under fire after being accused of homophobia, and emotional abuse. The accusations were made by Twitch streamer ‘Megskii’ — who, in a now-deleted January 26 TwitLonger, opened up about her two-year-long relationship with Rated. While admitting that both sides were toxic to each other, Megskii claimed that the popular NoPixel roleplayer was emotionally abusive and homophobic throughout their relationship. GTA RP streamer RatedEpicz responds to accusations The NoPixel star has since responded. First acknowledging the allegations of making homophobic comments, RatedEpicz apologized to his friends and more important his community — adding that he didn’t intend to be derogatory in any way. “This isn’t an apology to her, this is an apology to my friends and honestly even to my viewers,” he said. “So I’m apologizing because I said it, and I know I said it. I do apologize for the words that I said back then. “I never meant to say it in a derogatory term. I don’t have anything against any people. I said it five, six years ago. I am sorry. I don’t mean to and if I did offend anyone, I do apologize sincerely because I can’t imagine how it feels especially if you look up to me.” Addressing the allegations of abuse, the RP streamer noted how there were “there was many ups and many downs” throughout their relationship. “She said some crazy f**ked sh*t. I did as well I ain’t going to lie. It happened both ways.” He continued: “If I was such a quote-on-quote abusive guy, someone you don’t like, someone that’s so crazy, you hate, why would she keep hitting me up to be friends, play Valorant this that, and the third. “Don’t get me wrong, I did do f**ked up sh*t and I’ve learned from it, and honestly the trauma that it caused me I let it out on the wrong people and they know how sorry I am to them, you know, it sucks. And I do apologize for the way I was, even to her bro, I said f**ked up sh*t.” With Rated claiming that his ex-partner revealed private information, such as his name and face, it’s unclear if the situation will escalate further.

GTA RP is a community made mod of the beloved game, where players live out their own roleplay personalities. But in Twitch streamer Viviana’s case, she went a bit too far and beyond with her persona. Upon receiving a comment from Twitch chat, she immediately proceeded to insult the viewer, bringing race into the discussion. “You’re white, you’re Caucasian, and you will never have any f**king personality,” she stated, beginning her rant. “At least I have personality, at least I will be something. Ayo, ayo what? Ayo what? You will never have no type of personality, you will never have nothing. Your name is literally f**king James. That is the most like, pasty f**king name I have heard in my whole entire life,” she yelled, presuming the person’s race and personality purely based on their name. “Don’t f**king come for me bitch, cuz guess what? Guess f**king what? Don’t f**king come for me b**ch. ‘I’m white?’ Okay, who asked? No personality, no culture, no hairline, like who asked?” The streamer was swiftly banned from NoPixel after popular streamer Félix ‘xQc’ Lengyel reacted to her rant.

  • GTA RP players pay beautiful homage to late Brazilian YouTuber – Dexerto

    GTA RP players pay beautiful homage to late Brazilian YouTuber Um Gamer Aleatorio, YouTube / Gaules, TwitchThe Grand Theft Auto V role playing community is often hailed for the drama and hilarious debacles that arise between its players – but the death of a Brazilian YouTuber brought out a different side of the game’s playerbase, altogether. Brazilian YouTuber and Twitch streamer Thiago Guilherme, known online as ‘Futebolista,’ tragically passed away at the young age of 16 after being hospitalized for several days. Futebolista reportedly suffered from a condition that affected his muscles, and hoped to reach 100,000 subscribers on his YouTube channel before his passing. http://esportsmpb.com.br/morre-youtuber-e-streamer-thiago-futebolista-que-lutava-contra-problemas-musculares/With this in mind, members of the Brazilian GTA RP community began a campaign to help the young player reach his goal – but that wasn’t the only tribute they paid the ‘Soccer Player,’ by far. After receiving news of his passing, the community of his server came out en masse in a touching tribute to the youngster, dressing their characters in black and collectively walking down the streets with hands held up in peace signs, while one streamer sang a rendition of Jeff Buckley’s ‘Hallelujah.’ A friend of Futbolista, Gabriel ‘Random Gamer’ Lopes, likewise paid tribute to the player, compiling an emotional video of his gaming moments with the help of another community member in remembrance of the youngster. Even English fans were touched by the Brazilian playerbase’s memorial, with Reddit commenters finding themselves surprisingly moved by their in-game tribute after a clip of the stream went viral. “How is this making me tear up?” one commenter asked. “I don’t even know the guy. Bless this RP community.” “Things like this really do give me hope in humanity,” another wrote. https://www.reddit.com/r/LivestreamFail/comments/bqjerv/after_the_death_of_the_brazilian_streamer/This wouldn’t be the first time an online community has come together in support of another streamer, either; in early April, a few good-hearted viewers came to the defense of a streamer who was being bullied due to a facial birth defect, which ended up raising the broadcaster enough money for a new streaming PC. Despite the well-documented vitriol often spewed by random internet groups, the Brazilian GTA V RP community shone a heartwarming light in the midst of a heart-wrenching tragedy.

  • GTA RP streamer PENTA explains why it’s pointless to report xQc on NoPixel server – Dexerto

    GTA RP streamer PENTA explains why it’s pointless to report xQc on NoPixel server Twitch: PENTA/xQcPopular GTA RP streamer Penta explained that people, including himself, won’t report Felix ‘xQc’ Lengyel to the NoPixel devs because of his fans, even though he breaks the rules. Plenty of big Twitch variety streamers have gotten involved with GTA RP, but there’s been no bigger than xQc. The Luminosity Gaming content creator has hit close to 200,000 viewers at some points when he’s robbing banks and committing crime. While his hijinx are entertaining to some, he has landed himself in hot water with his fellow roleplayers, and has been banned from NoPixel on four different occasions. Since his last ban, he’s stayed out of trouble somewhat but has continued to get into drama with other players. While some viewers have called for a fifth ban, some roleplayers don’t want to report xQc. That includes Penta, a popular GTA RP streamer who plays entertaining characters like Mike Block, Randy Wrangler, and Jane Obama. Read More: GTA Online Summer update 2021 revealed – After the former Overwatch star shot him down randomly on May 22, which is breaking the rules in NoPixel, the streamer said that reporting xQc is just not worth the hassle because of his fans. “Why would I report it? So I get 150,000 people pissed off at me, only for him to get unbanned in a week? Yeah, dude, that sounds like a really f**king good idea,” Penta said. “F**k that! Only to get people would actually want to murder me in real life, just so the admins unban him in a week, wow, good idea. That sounds like a great f**king idea.” Penta reiterated his point that it “doesn’t make sense” to report xQc’s mishaps, just because it paints a target on the back of the streamer who does so. As shown before, streamers have actually gotten in trouble for threatening xQc’s fans after his mishaps. It’ll likely be on the NoPixel devs to act, instead of putting streamers in the firing line.

  • GTA RP streamer Penta leaks insane multi-million dollar Facebook streaming offer – Dexerto

    GTA RP streamer Penta leaks insane multi-million dollar Facebook streaming offer Twitch: PentaTwitch streamer Penta is a well-known member of the GTA RP NoPixel community, and he’s revealed how much Facebook offered him to stream on their platform — and it’s a seriously jaw-dropping amount. Streaming is becoming an ever more lucrative endeavor, with the top names on Twitch earning millions for sponsorships, let alone their subscriber and donation incomes. There are plenty of streamers — across multiple platforms too — making a healthy living off of their content, but there’s clearly an upper echelon of creators who are making incredible amounts. While Penta might not be as big as your Ninja’s, NICKMERCS’ and TimTheTatman’s of the world, he’s still built himself a solid and successful foundation of a channel, and could be about to make a serious bag from it. Facebook tends to fall behind its biggest streaming competitors in Twitch and YouTube, but there is some top talent on there, with the likes of Corinna Kopf and Warzone aficionado ZLaner streaming on the platform. It turns out there’s good reason for it too, because the amount of money Facebook is offering is genuinely impossible to just ignore, especially if Penta’s reveal is anything to go by. “Let’s just say I’m going to have to go on that “Who wants to be a blank?’ show and win the grand prize five times to make up for it,” Penta explained, talking about the offer he received and not accepted from the company. The show he mentions is, presumably, Who Wants to be a Millionaire, and winning it five times would total $5 million. While Penta later suggested it wasn’t actually $5m, having to win that much to cover the cost proves it’s definitely a ludicrous amount. Facebook have made no secret of their desire to really stake a big claim in the livestreaming world, and when they’re offering this much money, we might see a lot more big names making the switch.

Within any community, there are going to be a few unfortunate events happen, especially within a community the size of the NoPixel GTA RP server. NoPixel has figured out their own way of memorializing the people behind the characters, by created The Memorial Wall. Located in Legion Square in the heart of the city of Los Santos, the city the server is based on. Displaying four names of members that have passed, the memorial also shows various items related to the names of the people on the wall. Among those items is a sign that contains “What’s goooood?” the catchphrase itsStarkey was known for; A blue heart for bLuE622; a lifeguard surfboard for CallMeGrub who was known for his lifeguard antics; and a sledgehammer belonging to Misty Mocha aka DovahPug. Kimchi bikes across the United States Twitch streamer and fellow GTA RP player Kimchi, known for his character Sun Moon, has decided to take that memorial to the next level by challenging himself for a charity stream. Biking from Philadelphia, Pennsylvania to San Francisco, California, Kimchi has set a goal of $100,000 for three charities, each affecting the four that passed. The streamer has chosen The Cancer Support Community, The National Center on Addiction and Substance Abuse, and The American Foundation for Suicide Prevention. The charities that i’ve chosen are “”Cancer Support Community The National Center on Addiction and Substance Abuse American Foundation for Suicide Prevention””— Kimchi (@aka_Kimchi) August 23, 2021 Kimchi also explained why he felt like he needed to do this: “I’ll be honest, if I didn’t set up this goal 2 years ago, my name would probably be written on that wall. Since then, I’ve realized something, that it’s okay to not be okay. “It’s okay to not do anything. Took me a while to realize this. Our friends might have passed away and moved on to better things, however, we’re still here and we need to remember their struggle, so others don’t have to go through the same.” Our friends might have passed away and moved on to better things, however we’re still here and we need to remember their struggle, so others don’t have to go through the same. — Kimchi (@aka_Kimchi) August 23, 2021 He added: “The goal for the charity will 100,000$, “if we reach this before we get to San Francisco, i will keep raising it, if we pass 500,000$. Quote me on this, I will then return by bike to Philadelphia” Biking across the US isn’t the first big feat he’s pushed himself through, either, as he very recently became an American Citizen. The GTA RP Player is also streaming the bike ride on his Twitch channel as he goes, giving him the platform he may need to get to his $100k mark within the next few days. While we hope Kimchi surpasses his goal, we also wish him the best of luck with making it across the US safely.

  • GTA RP streamer Buddha reveals big step on road to recovery after brain surgery – Dexerto

    GTA RP streamer Buddha reveals big step on road to recovery after brain surgery Twitter: Thebuddha_3Popular Twitch streamer and GTA RP star Buddha has given fans another tentative health update after undergoing brain surgery in November 2022. Buddha is a prominent Twitch streamer with over 820,000 followers on the broadcasting platform. Best known for his GTA roleplaying streams, Buddha has accrued a large and supportive fanbase over the years. However, his viewers were shocked when the streamer revealed that doctors had discovered a bleed on the left side of his brain on November 13, explaining that he’d have to undergo surgery to fix the issue. Luckily, Buddha came out on the other side just fine and was discharged from the hospital a few days later. He was prescribed anti-seizure medication and was told he’d have to return to the hospital at a later date for a CT scan. “This was one of the scariest things I’ve ever experienced,” the streamer said of the matter. “Thank you for all the kind words and love, it means a lot and helps me push through. [I] will update here when I can.” Buddha had to undergo another surgery later that month to clean out an incision that doctors had made during the first operation. “Really hoping after this I can just start bouncing back and getting back to normal,” he wrote. Buddha offers tentative health update after brain surgery Now, over a month later, Buddha has returned to social media with another positive update regarding his health in wake of his emergency surgery. According to the streamer, his follow-up scan went well, saying that doctors saw nothing of concern in the imagery. “Just finished my follow up CT scan and initial[ly], doctors didn’t see anything concerning,” he wrote in a January 3 tweet. “Will get [an] official update from my doctor in 24 hours, but a great way to start the New Year.” Buddha also gave a few more updates in his official Discord server, where he said he was “really happy, just gotta hope my official doctor doesn’t ruin it.” “But I think we’re clear,” he added. “They literally didn’t let me leave until a doctor there confirmed I was good. …I don’t know if that means he can see other sh*t or what, but I think I’m good.” Buddha also made sure to clarify that he isn’t completely out of the woods just yet, and is still waiting on another confirmation from his doctors before getting the all-clear. Fans are offering their congratulations in the comments under Buddha’s latest tweet as the creator continues to heal from the frightening ordeal.

    GTA RP streamer Buddha shares positive health update after emergency brain surgery YT: Shot Callers EsportsGTA RP streamer Lucas ‘Buddha’ Ramos has provided another update on his health after undergoing emergency surgery for a bleed on the brain. The Grand Theft Auto RP community was left concerned for one of its most popular content creators after Buddha revealed he was to undergo emergency brain surgery on November 12. The Twitch giant explained that doctors had discovered a bleed on his brain, requiring immediate brain surgery to drain the blood. What followed was an anxious wait for many, before xQc, fellow streamer and friend of Buddha, provided a reassuring update that “he’s safe and made it out good. He’s chilling and recovering now. People can have peace of mind about it.” Now, the streamer himself has shared a positive update about his health. Buddha confirms hospital discharge following emergency brain surgery In a November 18 tweet, Buddha confirmed he has now been discharged from hospital, having spent nearly a week under observation following his surgery. “Hey all [I] got discharged today,” he said in a message originally from Discord. “They claimed the surgery went well and kept me at the hospital to make sure I was okay. I go back for a CT scan in 2 weeks but assuming all goes well and I don’t show any symptoms I’ll make a full recovery in a few months.” He explained that he’s also been prescribed “anti-seizure” medication and plans to take his recovery day by day. Buddha continued: “[There’s] no timetable for [a] return considering this was one of the scariest things I’ve ever experienced. Thank you for all the kind words and love, it means a lot and helps me push through. [I] will update here when I can.” Fans were relieved at the update and continued to wish the streamer a speedy and full recovery.

  • GTA RP streamer banned for racist outburst returns to Twitch and gives apology – Dexerto

    GTA RP streamer banned for racist outburst returns to Twitch and gives apology Rockstar / TwitchTwitch streamer ‘Viviana’ returned to Twitch after being unbanned following a racist outburst during a GTA roleplay stream, explaining that she “f**ked up” and won’t appeal the permanent NoPixel ban. Back on January 14, streamer Viviana was permanently banned from NoPixel as a result of a racist outburst directed at a viewer. She was also subsequently banned from Twitch, with the outburst receiving a significant amount of attention after xQc reacted to it live on his stream. Now, one month on, she has been unbanned from the Amazon-owned streaming platform, but remains banned from the NoPixel server. Her unban was confirmed and, a couple of days later, she returned to streaming on the platform itself. Her stream immediately attracted thousands of viewers, with many flocking to it to hear what she had to say on being allowed back on Twitch. Viviana admitted she “f**ked up”, before explaining her “side of the story”. “I just wanna start off by saying that everything I said was wrong,” she said. “I know that, I know why people are mad and I understand all the backlash… What I said was extremely out of pocket and I went from zero to one hundred real fast… It was not okay at all. “I wish I could tell you myself [why I said it]. I don’t know girl, I was in a really bad mental space. Which obviously doesn’t excuse anything, but I think that it doesn’t take a rocket scientist to know I wasn’t really okay… When everything happened I was in the middle of a psychotic break.” Topic starts at 6:35 She also explained that the issues were exacerbated by viewers mocking her voice, by which she was “triggered”. “It was just wrong,” she finished, before apologizing specifically to the person she verbally attacked. She clarified that she will not appeal the NoPixel ban, believing it to be the correct decision and “fair”. Some did argue that Twitch have been too lenient given the severity of her comments, but the platform does not comment on their ban procedures, nor are they likely to alter their decision to unban Viviana.

  • GTA RP streamer banned from Twitch after ‘dropped the soap’ joke – Dexerto

    GTA RP streamer banned from Twitch after ‘dropped the soap’ joke Twitch: Knotty/TwitchPopular GTA RP streamer Knotty got hit with a one-day ban from Twitch after being involved in some lewd jokes in NoPixel. With NoPixel’s 3.0 update rolling out in early 2021, streamers both big and small have made their way to try out GTA RP in some fashion. Even though the roleplaying mod uses GTA 5 – which is an 18+ game and has plenty of adult themes – they still have to abide by both the rules of the server and Twitch itself. Shooting people is fine, but making sexual references crosses the line and can land you with a suspension, as Adin Ross found out after some remarks and actions on his own server. Now, popular GTA RP streamer Knotty has been hit with a suspension for being involved with some crude and lewd roleplay in NoPixel’s prison. Knotty, alongside two other streamers – KClient and SgtApollo – made jokes about ‘dropping the soap’ the prison showers while also using some pretty funny, but ultimately inappropriate, in-game actions. The actions almost certainly fall under the lable of ‘erotic roleplay’, or ERP for short, which breaks both NoPixel rules, as well as possibly Twitch’s own. There’s no way to know for sure if this is the exact reason for his Twitch suspension – the platform does not comment on community guideline violations to respect the privacy of users. His Guy Jones character won’t be out of commission for long, however. The streamer noted that it was a one-day ban after the suspension was handed down. However, he won’t be able to play on NoPixel until the ban is lifted, given he may appear on Twitch streams, and banned streamers can’t do so. He’s not the first, and won’t be the last streamer, to be suspended in similar circumstances. Plenty have been banned before him for much worse. A second suspension from Twitch following a 24-hour ban, however, would see him out of action for a little bit longer, but fans can be glad that it’s not a permanent suspension.

  • GTA RP star Buddha takes over NoPixel management from Koil amid controversies – Dexerto

    GTA RP star Buddha takes over NoPixel management from Koil amid controversies Twitch: BuddhaGTA RP fan-favorite Buddha is now helping lead the NoPixel server in place of owner Koil amid ongoing controversies surrounding it. Whenever GTA RP has its boom periods on Twitch, there is typically only one big server that streamers are hoping to play on – NoPixel. The server has been at the forefront of the community for the last few years and helped with the 3.0 boom back in early 2021. Though, in recent weeks, the server has been swept up in a number of controversies. They cut ties with popular streamer RatedEpicz after a number of women made accusations about his behavior in relationships, including the use of homophobic language and abuse NoPixel owner Koil has also been under fire, including being involved in a $150,000 lawsuit brought back former dev DW after he was terminated from working on the server and getting into a fiery back-and-forth with Twitch star PENTA over the state of the server. Buddha joins NoPixel team amid GTA RP server controversies PENTA, as well as some other popular roleplayers, have left the server to go play on IgniteRP but others, including Buddha, have stuck around. Now, Koil is handing off some of the leadership responsibilities to Buddha to help “steer” the direction of the server. “I do not plan to leave NoPixel or streaming, just focus more on things I enjoy and have it run in a way that is healthy,” the server owner said in a Discord message to fans. “I know it’s clear to everyone I am not as intertwined as I once was and to remedy that, we will be bringing on Buddha to help steer the ship of NoPixel.” The GTA RP is certainly renowned for his roleplaying skills and has been at the forefront of many of NoPixel’s biggest and most interesting stories over the years. He has had his own complicated history with the server, as he was banned for an extended period back in the day. Though, he’s been thriving ever since 3.0 came around and should continue to do so.

  • GTA RP star Penta blasts NoPixel as he quits server – Dexerto

    GTA RP star Penta blasts NoPixel as he quits server Twitch: PentaGTA RP Twitch streamer Penta has blasted NoPixel and its owner Koil on his way out, as he quit the server to join IgniteRP. Over the last few years, Penta has skyrocketed in popularity thanks to his GTA RP streams, with over 11k hours streamed on the game so far. The Twitch streamer has played a variety of characters inside of the NoPixel GTA RP server, but his time with the community has come to a close. On May 1, 2023, Penta revealed he was leaving the server due to issues with server owner Koil and other members of the community. Penta blasts NoPixel as he leaves for IgniteRP server On April 30, NoPixel owner Koil was talking about Penta when he compared the Twitch streamer to “emotional girls on the internet,” in regards to potentially making a Twitter post about his issues with the server. Just recently, the NoPixel community had several women come forward with accusations against banned streamer RatedEpicz, leading many to believe Koil was comparing Penta to them. After Rated was banned there was also a flurry of other accusations about members of the NoPixel server which raised questions about how the server is run. A day later, Penta was live on his Twitch stream when he began blasting NoPixel admins and part of the community. After joining the IgniteRP server, he called Koil and Chang Gang out for “verbal abuse.” “Hopefully this will inspire some people who are sick of the verbal abuse from Koil and Chang Gang to get the f**k off the server man,” he said. “Shoutout to all the women that came out about the abuse they were receiving on NoPixel, that’s really important too. “I think there’s a lot of abuse that isn’t exactly sexual abuse that needs to be addressed as well. All kinds of abuse is bad.” Penta also called out the NoPixel admins for enabling the abuse in another clip. “To admins. I know that some of you guys are too far gone but I seriously hope that you wake up and realize what you’re enabling,” he said. “Because… you are.” The Twitch streamer also took a second to call out Koil yet again, slamming him for gambling on CS:GO and “ranting” about Penta. “F**k Koil, dog. That guy’s such a piece of sh*t dude. I’m gonna say it. I’m not gonna tiptoe around it anymore,” he said. “I don’t even know what his streams are anymore. It’s just him gambling on CS:GO and ranting about me. “This guy’s whole f**king existence is pathetic.” Koil has yet to respond to Penta’s comments, but we’ll be sure to update you if he does.

  • GTA RP group Chang Gang removes RatedEpicz following Nopixel permaban – Dexerto

    GTA RP group Chang Gang removes RatedEpicz following Nopixel permaban Chang GangGTA RP content group Chang Gang has decided to part ways with RatedEpicz following his permanent ban from the NoPixel RP server. On April 2, 2023, Facebook Gaming streamer RatedEpicz was permanently banned from the NoPixel GTA RP server by its owner during a broadcast. He quickly responded, stating that the ban was due to breaking the server’s TOS. NoPixel owner Koil issued a statement on April 6, calling for those affected by Rated to share their experience. The GTA RP content group Chang Gang which he has been associated with inside and outside of the popular server has also decided to part ways with the creator. Chang Gang removes RatedEpicz from group In a tweet on April 6, 2023, Chang Gang member JoblessGarrett posted a message regarding RatedEpicz and his position within the group. “In light of recent developments, Chang Gang as a collective and its individual members have made the decision to part ways with RatedEpicz. We respect the privacy of all involved parties and will not be sharing further details,” it said. Other than a retweet of Garrett’s post by Shotz, no other members of the Chang Gang have made a statement about the recent situation surrounding RatedEpicz. Since it was formed, the Chang Gang has become known outside of the NoPixel server as well by streaming other games together on Twitch. We’ll have to wait to see what happens in the near future, as Koil has made it clear they are working with legal counsel to handle whatever caused him to ban Rated on stream.

  • GTA RP invisible car launches summit1g into devastating highway car crash – Dexerto

    GTA RP invisible car launches summit1g into devastating highway car crash Summit1g, TwitchJaryd ‘Grand Theft Auto RP, but nobody could have expected him to end up in such a huge mess on the highway after hitting an invisible vehicle. The popular Twitch streamer was sent flying through his windscreen while driving up the main highway near La Fuente Blanca in GTA, with his car causing a devastating collision between around 20 other drivers, but this time it was through no fault of his own. However, that wasn’t the way the police saw it as they sprung onto the scene to investigate just what had happened, as players had crashed and others were ran over in the accident. “Oh, fuck. I think we hit somebody invisible. Fuck, you guys OK man?” he said, after striking the invisible vehicle at 116mph, flying through the windscreen and dying. Summit then started to repair his ride, before being met with a surprise. Not realizing what was ahead, the traffic started to drive right through the scene of the accident, wiping summit1g’s character Charles Johnson right off his feet. The hilarious carnage never stopped there as the police officer was also mowed down by a driver in the midst of the chaos. “It was a ghost car chat. I had heard about them. I hadn’t hit one yet,” the streamer said as his character remained on the ground, injured. Another officer with access to a vehicle approached the scene of the accident, hurrying over to summit and got him inside the car, before rushing him to the hospital. As the former CS:GO player was taking up the seat inside, the policeman that was hit by a car was forced to jump inside the truck for the ride. Once they arrived at the medical facility, the streamer was patched up and let go to carry on the broadcast as normal. This appears to be a glitch that is just affecting gameplay in GTA RP servers, which are an online modification of the original game, meaning that GTA Online players shouldn’t be facing the same issues. While it might have created a hilarious moment for people to watch, this incident just goes to show how devastating glitches can be. The AI drivers going rogue didn’t help matters either! As a notorious criminal in the NoPixel server, whenever Charles Johnson is interacting with police it is usually investigating some sort of plot, but clearly things turned out a little differently this time around.

  • GTA 5 is replacing Just Chatting as Twitch’s most popular category – Dexerto

    GTA 5 is replacing Just Chatting as Twitch’s most popular category Rockstar GamesJust Chatting is usually the king of Twitch, however, as the calendar has turned from April to May, it’s been overtaken by Grand Theft Auto 5 as GTA RP continues to be huge. There have been a few iterations of GTA RP over the last few years, and each time a new update releases, the multiplayer mod becomes pretty popular on Twitch. However, with the release of NoPixel’s 3.0 update, the game has skyrocketed in popularity. Streamers like xQc, Summit1g, HasanAbi, Sykkuno, and even Pokimane have gotten involved, and more content creators are lining up to play. What’s surprising this time around, though, is just how big it’s become on Twitch. GTA RP usually lands GTA V in the top five most-watched games for a few weeks, but it is continuing to go strong. GTA RP dethrones Just Chatting on Twitch In fact, the interest in GTA RP has gotten so strong that, in the first week of May, it’s taken the crown off Just Chatting for the most-watched category on Twitch. Just Chatting, as any regular Twitch user knows, is pretty much untouchable and will sit in the most-watched slot for days, unless there’s a huge esports event or a new game being released. However, in the first week of May, according to stats from SullyGnome, it’s been dethroned by GTA RP. The GTA section has averaged just over 5,000 more viewers for the first week of May, but the peak viewership is way higher and tops at almost 300,000 more viewers. xQc & Summit1g are GTA RP stars While some full-time roleplay streamers have gotten a nice boost from the increased interest, some of the biggest viewership bounces have gone to already established creators. Both xQc and AuronPlays – a Spanish streamer who plays on his own server, not NoPixel – regularly average over 150,000 viewers whenever they drop into GTA RP. Then you’ve got the likes of Sykkuno, Summit1g, and MoonMoon helping bump everything up with their huge followings. Now, this isn’t all to say that GTA RP and GTA 5 are going to stay atop Twitch for a long time, but it does show just how big it’s gotten this year, and especially now in May. Some streamers have started to wain themselves off the multiplayer mod and find other things to play, but as more updates roll out, it could skyrocket even further. We’ll just have to wait and see.

  • GTA Online sabotages streamer’s heist at worst possible moment – Dexerto

    GTA Online sabotages streamer’s heist at worst possible moment Rockstar GamesThere are few things worse than grinding through a mission just to fall as you get close to completing it, but as Grand Theft Auto Online, it’s even more frustrating when it’s the game’s fault you fail. Grand Theft Auto V released way back in 2013, but six years on, it remains one of the most popular games in the world, thanks in no small part to GTA Online, which is constantly updated with new missions, tasks, and heists. Heists involve players going through a number of setup missions that culminate in a massive and difficult final task that usually involves players robbing banks or breaking prisoners out of jails, with hundreds of thousands of dollars up for grabs for those who successfully pull them off. For EL1T3ttv, he had already gone through the hassle of completing his setup missions and was ready to take on the big challenge. GTA Online had different plans for the streamer though, who was left stunned when his heist was ruined, through no fault of his own. After watching a cutscene where his team jumped out of a plane, EL1T3ttv found himself flying a helicopter, with the game telling him to wait for the remaining members of his heist squad at the beach. Things didn’t go to plan though, with GTA seemingly failing to give him control of the vehicle, leaving the streamer powerless as it crashed into the sand and rolled into the ocean, immediately failing the entire team for the error. The 20-year-old, who regularly streams his escapades in Los Santos, was understandably stunned by the glitch, staring open-mouthed at the screen as he tried to explain what had just happened to his team via the in-game chat. “What the fuck was that?” he asked, still shocked. “The load screen hit, it loaded, and then the propellors stopped spinning!” What caused this to happen will likely never be revealed, but the streamer can rest easy knowing that everyone gets hit by a crazy GTA glitch every now and then, including Jaryd ‘Summit1g’ Lazar who got caught by a number of bizarre invisible car bugs.

  • “Groundbreaking” AI that scans actors’ digital likenesses resembles Black Mirror episode – Dexerto

    “Groundbreaking” AI that scans actors’ digital likenesses resembles Black Mirror episode Netflix: Black MirrorA new AI proposal includes scanning actors for their digital likeness, a notion previously explored in an episode of Black Mirror’s latest season. Two of Hollywood’s big three labor unions are on strike following failed negotiations between the Screen Actors Guild – American Federation of Television and Radio Artists (SAG-AFTRA) and the Alliance of Motion Picture and Television Producers (AMPTP). SAG-AFTRA president Fran Drescher and chief negotiator Duncan Crabtree-Ireland announced the board had unanimously voted to go on strike following the AMPTP’s refusal “to offer a fair deal on key issues essential to protecting the livelihoods of working actors and performers.” The AMPTP has since issued a statement claiming they presented the guild with an offer “with the goal of forging a new, mutually beneficial contract”. However, one particular part of this offer sounds a little too similar to one of Black Mirror’s latest episodes… The component of the Producers’ offer in question discusses “a groundbreaking AI proposal which protects performers’ digital likenesses, including a requirement for performer’s consent for the creation and use of digital replicas or for digital alterations of a performance.” However, Crabtree-Ireland was evidently not impressed, alleging that the “groundbreaking” AI proposal would see companies claim the rights to a background performer’s image for only one day’s pay. Speaking on the offer, he said it stated “Their companies should own that scan, their image, their likeness and should be able to use it for the rest of eternity on any project they want, with no consent and no compensation. So if you think that’s a groundbreaking proposal, I suggest you think again.” AMPTP spokesperson Scott Rowe has denied these allegations, saying “The current AMPTP proposal only permits a company to use the digital replica of a background actor in the motion picture for which the background actor is employed. Any other use requires the background actor’s consent and bargaining for the use, subject to a minimum payment.” However, it is hard not to see the similarities between the offer and Black Mirror’s Joan is Awful. The latest season’s debut episode follows Joan, a manager at the media company Streamberry — the universe’s equivalent of Netflix. Joan discovers that Streamberry has replicated her life and likeness for a new TV show due to her agreeing to the job’s terms and service. As well as this, the actress playing her — Salma Hayek — isn’t actually Hayek but her image, which was licensed to the company to use as seen fit. While Black Mirror is known to use technology and media in dystopian settings to comment on current social issues, Joan is Awful is starting to feel a little too real.

    Grubhub customer claims he received a cup full of urine instead of his drink Instagram: grubhubA Grubhub customer alleged that he was given a cup full of urine instead of his Chick-fil-A milkshake. Nothing is worse than missing food items after receiving your delivery order from services like Grubhub and DoorDash. However, Grubhub customer Caleb Woods’ recent experience may take the cake for one of the worst delivery orders ever. Though he anticipated getting a milkshake, Woods shared with Fox59.com that he, instead, was given a cup full of urine. Grubhub customer confronts driver for giving him a urine-filled cup Woods recently ordered fries and a milkshake from Chick-fil-A through Grubhub. However, he was shocked to find that his frosted treat was nothing but someone else’s urine. Unfortunately, Woods became aware of the highly contaminated drink after he took a sip. He then called the Grubhub driver back to his home to confront them. Having a camera ready to record their discussion on his porch, Woods took the opportunity to get the truth. After he asked the driver, “Do you realize this is pee?” The driver allegedly told him that they work long hours and accidentally mistook the milkshake cup for a cup full of urine in their car. Though Woods fell ill after drinking the urine, he told Fox59.com that Grubhub took four days to respond to his situation. They then refunded him only $18 when the meal was nearly $30, as the platform refused to give back the delivery fee and tip he provided. After receiving low-quality customer service, Grubhub released a statement saying that the representative who helped Woods was undergoing extensive “coaching.” As for the driver, they were fired and are unable to work for Grubhub for the foreseeable future.

  • GrossGore accuses Blizzard of mocking him with ‘troll’ WoW character – Dexerto

    GrossGore accuses Blizzard of mocking him with ‘troll’ WoW character Grossgore / Blizzard entertainmentPopular World of Warcraft expansions. The popular content creator GrossGore has been known for his highly entertaining twitch streams on games such as League of Legends and World of Warcraft. With the highly anticipated launch of WoW classic soon to be on its way, GrossGore learned of one of the NPC trolls called “Grozgore” which was added to the game in a previous expansion and claimed that Blizzard had done it in an attempt to mock the popular streamer. GrossGore responded to Blizzard’s addition to the WoW universe by complaining about the fact they had chosen to use a Troll for the character, with a similar name to his own, and that they also give the NPC a big nose, claiming that it was done on purpose to mock his nose. “Guess what it is? It’s a troll, not a humanoid, a fucking troll!” GrossGore said, before detailing the NPC “This troll has a big fucking nose, a massive crooked fucking nose, huh sounds familiar, well guess what I used to have a big nose and it used to be really bent as well just like the NPC.” The streamer was not impressed by Blizzard’s choice in naming their new character expressing that they could’ve chosen another name for the troll, “They could’ve picked any fucking name or word in the world and guess what they called it? Grozgore! Yeah, I’m not fucking joking.” I’ve got a complaint to make against @Blizzard_Ent /@Warcraft I’m not joking. Please share this video to raise awareness with my situation. pic.twitter.com/8EYeEsJbyz — Gross Gore (@GrossieGore) August 25, 2019 Gross Gore then asked for Blizzard to make changes to the in-game NPC, claiming that it was damaging his reputation by making him look like a troll in World of Warcraft. “Damaging my reputation and everything I built up to make me look like a big fucking troll, do you think its funny? Because it ain’t. I’ll forgive you and take back my complaint if you can change the NPC from a troll to a humanoid, make me a king and I’ll forgive you.” It remains to be seen if Blizzard will be willing to change the name or look of their in-game NPC who’s name clearly resembles the popular Twitch streamer, GrossGore.

  • GrossGore responds to “sexual predator” accusations – Dexerto

    GrossGore responds to “sexual predator” accusations GrossGore/YouTubeTwitch streamer GrossGore has responded to allegations of being a “sexual predator” that surfaced on social media over the weekend. On March 12, GrossGore posted a photo to the r/RoastMe subreddit, then quickly deleted it just a couple of hours later after allegations of him being a “sexual predator” started to appear. A list of allegations was also compiled a pastebin of everything that the streamer has been accused of over the years. Multiple Twitter users, including @EVEVE24, posted about their alleged interactions with the streamer over the years as well, including claims he had sexually harassed them, sent his fans after them, and more. Gross Gore: a long history of being a sexual predator Read: https://t.co/ezaAxI5uXL — E (@EVEVE24) March 13, 2021 On March 13, the UK-based streamer posted a new video on YouTube defending himself from the accusations after deleting the post, which he said was “getting out of control.” “This isn’t me. There are some disgusting things from my past and I can promise you that’s not who I am today. I look back, I cringe, I get embarrassed and I regret so much,” Ali said in the video. “This pastebin has been floating around for a long time now and I thought I need to address this.” Despite the opinion a lot of people were sharing — that GrossGore is just cleaning up his act as he finds new popularity on Twitch — the streamer claimed that was not the case. “I know some people might not forgive me. I want you to understand that some people do change, I’ve learnt a lot over the years and I have a positive mindset now,” Ali said. “Some people out there believe I’ve only changed because of the new Twitch ToS, but that’s not true, I’ve acted stupid and crazy in the past for attention, because I thought no one would like watching me for who I am.” Not long after the video was posted, streamer Celestia Vega posted a multiple-tweet response to it in a thread. Vega and Ali used to date before the two broke up in 2016, and the fallout of drama soon spread throughout social media. “I’m the actual person that everybody’s speaking about, so it would probably be helpful to actually consult me,” she wrote. https://twitter.com/celestia717/status/1371099261631401984?s=20 GrossGore has been banned multiple times in the past by Twitch, but has recently been seeing an upsurge in popularity and viewer count on the site. Whether these accusations will lead to more action by Twitch or any other social media remains to be seen.

  • Gross Gore subreddit allegedly banned for sending him a ton of yogurt – Dexerto

    Gross Gore subreddit allegedly banned for sending him a ton of yogurt The subreddit for controversial YouTuber and streamer Ali ‘Gross Gore’ Larsen was shut down after users allegedly mailed copious amounts of yogurt to his home. On December 16, users logging into Reddit noticed that Gross Gore’s subreddit had been banned by Reddit staff “due to a violation of Reddit’s content policy against harassing content.” The user who posted the screenshot of the banned subreddit page, TriHardo, also provided an alleged explanation as to why the community had been removed. “According to a mod of his subreddit, they were in good standings with Reddit admins,” TriHardo wrote. “This was until someone put his home address on Google Maps and made it a public business called something along the line of “Rachaels Br*thel” (it’s removed now).” The fake business was named after Gross Gore’s wife, Rachael, and wasn’t immediately removed, which gave users on the subreddit access to the content creator’s home address. But why would fans send something as random as a ton of yogurt? Well, TriHardo explained that the yogurt was allegedly part of an ongoing meme in the community. “Him feeding his daughter poor food had been a long term meme/worry of his fan base, he quite frequently snapchats her eating KFC and McDonalds with huge amounts of ketchup,” TriHardo said. “He also allegedly snapchatted (I have never seen the video) himself tipping yogurt on her head before.” “So his fan base decided sending him yogurt would be a good way to troll him,” they concluded. “Either because of the memes or due to the relation with the fake business name.” Getting someone’s address and sending them anything without them asking (even if it is a ton of yogurt) could definitely be considered harassment, and it’s more than likely yogurt was only part of the stuff the streamer was receiving. Gross Gore has yet to respond or release a Twitter rant about the situation, so it’s unclear if yogurt was actually the reason the sub got shut down or something else entirely.

  • Gross Gore’s Keyboard Broke in the Middle of a LoL Game, and His Reaction was Priceless – Dexerto

    Gross Gore’s Keyboard Broke in the Middle of a LoL Game, and His Reaction was Priceless British League of Legends streamer Ali ‘Gross Gore’ Larsen experienced an embarrassing technical difficulty during a League of Legends match. He was in the middle of a game when his keyboard went haywire, sending him across the screen and typing a ton of random spam into the game’s chat. His chat was quite amused at this turn of events – but Gross Gore wasn’t laughing. Read More: KSI Went on Tinder as ‘The Boxing Champ’ in a Prank Video – and Made Some Unlikely Matches – The streamer was thoroughly shocked and dismayed, reeling back from his setup in confusion. “Oh my god! My keyboard! What is my keyboard doing? It’s not me!” Gross Gore held up his keyboard to the camera to prove that he wasn’t behind the machine’s madness. Those in the game’s chat had no idea what to make of all the spam, and asked if he was trolling. He vehemently denied that he was trying to spam the chat. He appeared to try to type a response, but more spam came out in the place of comprehensible human language. Even Gross Gore himself began to doubt if it was a glitch, but rather the work of hackers. “My keyboard’s fucked! Am I hacked?” As he reached over to unplug the keyboard, the spam started up again at an incredibly fast pace. He admitted that he’d spilt water on it, citing it as a probable culprit in the matter. He shook it out after removing it from the tower, noticing water leaking from the keys. He managed to successfully dry the device and get back to the game – albeit a bit late. Once it was over (and the team had lost) he pleaded his case with his audience, showing the keyboard in question and stating that only a tiny bit of water had spilled on the thing. Hopefully, Gross Gore will learn to be more careful with fluids around his setup in the future – but we’ll be darned if it wasn’t funny.

    Gross Gore responds to multiple accusations of sexual harassment and physical assault Twitch / RunefestLeague of Legends streamer Ali ‘Gross Gore’ Larsen has been accused of sexual harassment and violent behavior at Runefest 2018. A Twitter user by the name of Cath came forward with the allegations in a post, where she stated that the streamer was ‘horrifically sleazy’ and ‘disrespecting everyone’s personal space’ during the event. Cath wasn’t the only one to come forward with allegations of this sort, either. Runescape streamer Elliot ‘Skiddler’ affirmed her claims, and provided a write-up that described an instance where Gross Gore became violent after Elliot approached him about claims made by multiple women at the event. Gross gore is a fucking gross human. Every encounter I had with him this weekend he was being horrificly sleazy to any girl he could (despite having a fiance and a kid with her) trying to get them to fuck him, disrespecting everyone’s personal space and being aggressive as fuck — Cath (@hellcathh) October 7, 2018 Both he and Gross Gore were escorted away from the scene by police – but Gore denies that he ever incited a brawl. “I haven’t had a fight since I was eleven,” he stated in a recent livestream explaining his side of the story. “I don’t fight, I don’t believe in fighting, I don’t like fighting.

  • Gross Gore reveals how trolls cost him £9,000 sponsorship deal – Dexerto

    Gross Gore reveals how trolls cost him £9,000 sponsorship deal Gross Gore, TwitterPopular Twitch streamer Ali ‘Gross Gore’ Larsen is battling his haters, once again — but this time, he’s revealed that they’ve cost him more than just a peaceful online experience. Larsen has dealt with multiple instances of harassment from internet trolls in the past, experiencing everything from faked screenshots of racist DMs to even receiving oodles of unwanted food to his home address. However, his latest stint with haters comes at quite a hefty price point, as revealed during a broadcast on February 22. https://twitter.com/GrossieGore/status/1226602395578380288?s=20 The streamer paused his Runescape session to announce why he’d banned all the trolls in his Discord channel, claiming that they’d pulled a stunt that seriously affected him on the business end of his career. According to Gross Gore, he’d been partnered with a company known as PartyPoker, an online card room where users can play poker with other enthusiasts in a virtual setting. This seemingly profitable partnership has since been allegedly disbanded, as Larsen claimed that his horde of online trolls had actually prompted the company to pull out of their deal after making a number of fake reviews for the site. That’s not all; the partnership was purportedly worth a whopping £9,000, leaving the streamer high and dry without any cash to show for his business deal. “I was sponsored by PartyPoker, and they’ve dropped me, because the hate group decided to make 50 fake reviews on Google,” he explained. “And they dropped me because of it.” That wasn’t the end of his explanation: the streamer also revealed that he wasn’t the only one affected by the faked reviews, claiming that his middleman and friend Ryan likewise missed out on some significant cash. “You are all permanently banned in this chat, because you just f**king cost me nine grand,” he continued. “Not just me. You cost my middleman two grand, and you’ve cost Ryan, who doesn’t even f**king have a job, who has no money in his bank account… that three and a half grand would have set him up to go to TwitchCon and to buy a new car.” Although Gross Gore’s issues with haters have taken extreme measures in the past, this one takes the cake — and £9,000 in profits, too.

  • Gross Gore indefinitely banned on Twitch for “adult sexual exploitation” – Dexerto

    Gross Gore indefinitely banned on Twitch for “adult sexual exploitation” Gross Gore Twitter / TwitchAli ‘Gross Gore’ Larsen has been permanently banned by Twitch for “adult sexual exploitation,” but the streamer believes the company made a mistake and is looking to reverse the suspension. On March 18, Twitch banned his channel from their streaming platform. The star’s partner status has also been revoked – a typical sign that means the company plans to permanently oust a creator from their services. “After reviewing multiple incidents of serious violations of Twitch’s Terms of Service… related to your Twitch account ‘grossie_gore’, we are terminating the Agreement effective as of 3/18/2021 and indefinitely suspending your account effective immediately,” read Twitch’s message to Gross Gore. Immediately following the ban, Larsen made a video reacting to the decision, calling it a “mistake” and is hoping his plea will be “heard by the right people.” I really do belive @Twitch has made a mistake/decision banning me & I would appreicate any retweet’s to get this video heard by the right people.I don’t know what to say anymore. I feel nothing. I’m very sad & lost…@TwitchSupport pic.twitter.com/Uv4HGBSZnv— Gross Gore (@Gross_Gorex) March 18, 2021 Gross Gore revealed Twitch’s email on his ban in the same video outlining exactly why the company moved to shut down his channel. The streamer believes that Twitch must be basing the decision on his 2015 episode with Celestia Vega in which he describes as simply “showing her mom her Instagram account on a USB. Celestia was 18 at the time, going on 19.” This comes on the heels of even more allegations against Gross Gore popping up in light of a post on the RoastMe subreddit that resulted in many people coming forward with their stories again. Shortly after the ban hit, Gross Gore reacted to the situation. He was “heartbroken” to hear that “drama brought up from 2015” managed to get him banned. “I just got banned on Twitch from the drama brought up from 2015?” he said. “I don’t know what to say. I don’t know what to say or do. I’m heartbroken.” Gross Gore has been banned in 2016, 2018, and in 2021. The first had to do with harassment allegations, and his second incident warranted a 30-day suspension on his account for mounting accusations of sexual harassment and physical assault from several parties. The streamer will now try to see if he can undo the ban, but has revealed he plans to take his livestreams to YouTube for the time being.

  • Gross Gore quits streaming weeks after claiming he’d be “world’s biggest streamer” – Dexerto

    Gross Gore quits streaming weeks after claiming he’d be “world’s biggest streamer” YouTube: Gross GoreAli ‘Gross Gore’ Larsen said he was going to become the “world’s biggest streamer” on YouTube after his March Twitch ban. Now, the former League of Legends star is quitting yet again, claiming “there’s no hope for it” and he’s “wasting his life”. Gross Gore tried to reclaim his Twitch glory on YouTube after being permanently banned from the Amazon-owned platform for “adult sexual exploitation”. However, just two months into his quest to make it big — even bigger than he was during his peak as a League of Legends streamer in 2015 — he’s abandoned the task, citing mental health issues and a lack of love for streaming. He claimed that the time he’s spent streaming since his Twitch ban has gone “down the drain”, and that he’s “wasting [his] life trying to become a streamer on YouTube.” “Am I quitting streaming? I’m not going to say I’m quitting, but I don’t want to stream anymore. There’s no point. It’s never going up, it’s always going down. There’s no hope for it. YouTube is not made for streaming,” he said in a June 29 YouTube video. I’m going to be the biggest streamer in the world one day & I’ll do it on YouTube. Remember this tweet. — Gross Gore (@Gross_Gorex) May 29, 2021 Larsen, who has been open about his struggles with depression and bipolar, said his fall from Twitch grace left him “in a really bad place”. “I hate being stuck in doors, sitting down, pretending everything is going to be okay. There’s going to be people commenting saying ‘how lucky I am and how privileged I should be to stream in front of 500, 600, 700 viewers.’ “But you’ve got to remember, going from 10,000 viewers to 700 is demoralizing. Just talking about it makes me depressive.” “When I’m streaming League of Legends, it’s going nowhere. My brain is not getting the release it needs to feel good about myself. I’m not achieving anything, I’m currently stuck in Diamond 1, and I don’t enjoy streaming League of Legends.” While Larsen believes he could have “easily [made] a million followers” on Twitch (he was at 502,000 at the time of his ban), his ban put a stop to that climb. A return wasn’t on the regards either. “I appealed to Twitch three months ago, and it was denied. Even if I do get unbanned, what’s the point? I could sit here and beg Twitch and meet people and try and work my way back in, but what’s the point,” he said. “What’s the point in crawling back to Twitch just to get rebanned again because people out there get jealous and kick up a shitstorm which will lead to nothing.” After stating he was over $13,000 in debt to tax authorities and “financially f**ked”, he said he’s going to continue in his content creating quest — just not in streaming. “I’m going to work on my YouTube channel. I want to post content all the time. I’m just going to post content of anything — me going out in the Supra, me going carspotting. That’s what I want to do. “I’m going to focus on becoming a YouTuber like when I was a kid. I want to become known in the YouTube community — not the streaming community. All I care about is my YouTube channel.” Gross Gore’s YouTube channel has 350,000 subscribers as of the time of publishing.

  • Gross Gore hits out at fake Snapchat accusing him of abusing daughter – Dexerto

    Gross Gore hits out at fake Snapchat accusing him of abusing daughter Ali ‘Gross Gore’ Larson has warned fans about fake Snapchats of him abusing his daughter circulating, calling it “sick.” Gross Gore has laid low on Twitch over the last few months to help raise his two-year-old daughter, Ellie Blue. Instead, he’s kept up his profile on Twitter with a number of rants about internet and streaming culture. However, his latest subject was a lot more personal, defending himself from critics over accusations of poor parenting and warning fans of fake videos accusing the streamer of abusing his daughter. The topic of Gross Gore’s parenting started circulating once again after Ian ‘idubbbz’ Carter’s girlfriend Anisa Jomha criticized the former League of Legends streamer on January 12. “I want people to know that when [Gross Gore] announced that he was pregnant, I looked at my mom and was like ‘that poor kid is f**king going to grow up in the sh*ttiest home,’ and that was like when she was first pregnant,” she said.

F**king sort it out.” Response to every streamer that shit talks me & my daughter; pic.twitter.com/YWbc0Bx9cA — Gross Gore (@Gross_Gorex) January 12, 2020 The supposed harassment hasn’t stopped there, with the streamer receiving allegedly edited videos of him verbally abusing his daughter at home. “One of you sickos did this,” he said, before playing the allegedly doctored video. “You hear that? Someone’s edited a video of me swearing and overlapped it with my Snapchat and people believe that it’s real. It’s fake, it’s f**king fake.” The streamer seemed visibly upset in both videos, getting emotional during both rants as he looks to keep aspects of his private life out of the public spotlight. https://twitter.com/GrossieGore/status/1216370576559935488 Gross Gore had his child with streamer girlfriend Rachel back in December, 2017. The two separated briefly in July 2019, but reconciled near the end of the year, describing their rekindled relationship as “open.” He often shares short clips of him with his daughter to his fans, but otherwise tries to keep her out of his regular run of content across social media.

  • Gross Gore hits back at accusations of drug use with epic Twitter rant – Dexerto

    Gross Gore hits back at accusations of drug use with epic Twitter rant British streamer Ali ‘Gross Gore’ Larsen has slapped back at accusations of cocaine use at TwitchCon 2019 with a fiery rant via Twitter video. The 27-year-old fell victim to accusations following an after party at TwitchCon 2019 in San Diego, California, where it was rumored he was allegedly spotted snorting cocaine – something he strongly denied. On December 28, the League of Legends streamer addressed the allegations further in an explosive Twitter tirade, while also taking shots at people who do actually use the drug. Gross Gore goes wild In a one minute and 24 second video titled “Don’t ever accuse me of sniffing cocaine. Disgusting people,” the British Twitch star erupted at those who partake in substance abuse. “I’ve just seen someone on Instagram sniffing cocaine and bragging about it. Listen to me very carefully, you disgusting scumbags of the human Earth planet,” he began. “If you sniff cocaine, you’re a crackhead. You’re a f**king cokehead.” He then launched straight into addressing the accusations that he himself uses the illegal narcotic. “A lot of people accuse me of f**cking sniffing cocaine, that’s what I hate. People think that I sniffed cocaine at TwitchCon, people were doing it around me, that’s not the first time that’s happened, I see people sniff cocaine around me all the time.” Don’t ever accuse me of sniffing cocaine. Disgusting people. pic.twitter.com/qn7vhMjbhH — Gross Gore (@Gross_Gorex) December 29, 2019 Gross Gore continued his rant by stating that users of the substance are ruining their lives. “Look at the time, it’s goddamn midnight, look at me, you think I need cocaine? You’re ruining your lives, good. Get your life f**ked up, bruv.” “You think I do cocaine, you think I need that s**t?” he said, responding to the claims further. “When I’m natural I’m hyper. When I have sugar I’m hyper. When I wake up I’m hyper. I’m always this.” “You wanna be me, you little c*nt?” the streamer finished. “You need to be on drugs to be like me. Go get help you f**king losers!” The 27-year-old has become known for his fiery rants on Twitch, and has accumulated a following of over 411,000 people on the platform who tune in to watch his explosive personality. He started off his career as a RuneScape streamer, before switching to League of Legends and Q&A broadcasts where he interacts with fans.

  • Gross Gore can’t make any money streaming after StreamLabs & StreamElements ban – Dexerto

    Gross Gore can’t make any money streaming after StreamLabs & StreamElements ban YouTube: Gross GoreStreamer Ali ‘Gross Gore’ Larsen has claimed he is the first person to be banned by both StreamLabs & StreamElements, saying he’s had “no text-to-speech and no income.” On March 18, Gross Gore was banned from Twitch indefinitely and had his partner status revoked for ‘adult sexual exploitation.’ The streamer claimed that he was banned as a result of an incident from 2016 involving Celestia Vega, which he described as: “showing her mom her Instagram account on a USB. Celestia was 18 at the time, going on 19.” However, as Celestia claimed in a Twitter voice recording, she was 17 going on 18 at the time, meaning the privately sent nude images that Ali allegedly put on the hard drive and that were leaked online would have been from when she was underage. UK law states: “Taking, making, sharing and possessing indecent images and pseudo-photographs of people under 18 is illegal.” Larsen has been streaming on YouTube since the ban, but in a video uploaded to Twitter on May 6, he explained that when he was banned on Twitch, he was also banned by StreamLabs and StreamElements, two popular tools that allow creators to add useful features that enhance their streams. “A lot of people have been asking why I haven’t been streaming for the past two weeks,” he began. “When I got banned on Twitch on March 17th, StreamLabs and StreamElements banned me from their platforms, because they didn’t want the bad press. They didn’t want to be associated with Gross Gore.” He claimed he is the “first person to be banned from StreamLabs and StreamElements,” and added: “I’ve had no text-to-speech and no income. And I’ve got employees, and I have a daughter, but these guys don’t give a crap, they just want to look good, it’s business, all they care about is not looking bad, they’re scared of bad PR.” A very important video; Appreciate it @streamlabs & @StreamElements pic.twitter.com/ZQUt1y6E1x — Gross Gore (@Gross_Gorex) May 6, 2021 Larsen said that when he streamed through the month of April he “killed off his stream” because he had no text-to-speech, and even lied to his viewers about the reason he had the feature turned off. However, after explaining what has been happening over the past two months since his ban, the streamer explained that he’s “got something sorted out” for future streams, and said that when he’s back he’ll be “grinding harder than ever.”

  • Gross Gore contacts police after trolls spam his house with unpaid kebabs – Dexerto

    Gross Gore contacts police after trolls spam his house with unpaid kebabs Twitter: @GrossieGore / PixabayTwitch streamer Ali ‘Gross Gore’ Larsen had to end his broadcast early on February 9 after trolls kept ordering takeaway kebabs to his house. He then vowed to go to the police and get to the bottom of who’s sending him the unwanted and unpaid food. Gross Gore has allegedly fallen victim to food pranks in the past, with his subreddit forum on Reddit supposedly being shut down because he was sent copious amounts of unwanted yogurt to his home address. More recently, trolls decided to spam the Twitch personality’s house with takeaway orders, and he’s had enough. It’s gone so far that he’s getting the police involved to put a stop to it once and for all. Trolls spam Gross Gore with kebabs During his February 9 Old School RuneScape broadcast, the streamer opened up about his struggle with being trolled after an unknown assailant sent not one, not two, but three unpaid orders to his home while he was live. “This is the third kebab ordered to my house tonight,” he said as he held the food bag up to the camera. “Unpaid for. I don’t find it funny at all, and I’ve got to close the stream because of it, so that’s what I’m gonna do.” The 27-year-old then revealed how he was going to talk to the police and local fast food shops to put a stop to the trolls. “Tomorrow, I’m going to be contacting the police and I’m going to go to every kebab shop in my area and tell them the situation,” he said before he ended the stream earlier than planned. After the livestream ended, the British personality took to Twitter to vent his frustrations and ask his followers for their advice on the situation with a video captioned “I seriously am not happy. I don’t know what to do.” “I had to turn off my stream after three hours because it’s been happening all day,” he explained as he angled the camera towards numerous takeaway bags. “Kebab, kebab, kebabs, about £50 worth of food unpaid for to my address. I’m sick of people thinking it’s funny to deliver food to my address.” “I’m going to take a day off streaming tomorrow and sort this out. I don’t find it funny, and it’s not nice, and it’s a reason my anxiety has been playing up for the last four years,” he continued. “You will get in trouble if you’re caught, and you’re wasting my money, you’re wasting these food companies’ money, and I just don’t find it funny.” https://twitter.com/GrossieGore/status/1226602395578380288 After he was sent the first kebab during his stream, Gross Gore revealed how trolls had actually been targeting him for a while, and had even found the office building where he used to work and targeted him with food deliveries there. “I had a little electric box in the corner, and they knew where I was working from. They knew the room number. They knew because this electric box in the corner!” he said. “And I come on stream one day, and everyone’s spamming “Unit 26 WideHardo” … I was scared! I thought I was being followed! I legit, I s**t myself, my anxiety went through the roof! I thought I was gonna get killed.” Read More: Logan Paul drops Antonio Brown diss track – The Twitch personality then revealed the lengths his aggressors went to in order to harass him. “Turns out that they somehow had blueprints of the building. Can you believe that s**t? You should have seen it, it’s like they went detective mode on Discord. Mission ‘find where Gross Gore works’ … It was scary! … These guys are super freaks!” While you usually have to pay for food upon ordering, certain apps like Deliveroo and Uber Eats allow you to pay in cash when it arrives at an address in the UK, which is presumably what these trolls were doing to Gross Gore. It is unclear at the time of writing as to what action the police will be taking once he reports the situation, but Dexerto will keep you updated with any further developments.

  • Gross Gore destroyed by Ninja after rant over True Geordie podcast – Dexerto

    Gross Gore destroyed by Ninja after rant over True Geordie podcast Tyler ‘Ninja’ Blevins had the perfect response to verbal criticism from fellow streamer Ali ‘Gross Gore’ Larsen who was furious when the Mixer star called him out on an episode of the True Geordie podcast. Gross Gore took aim at Ninja back in August, when it was announced that the 28-year-old was leaving Twitch in favor of signing an exclusive deal with Microsoft-owned platform Mixer. The Brit labeled his streaming peer a “sellout,” and the move “disrespectful,” and when discussing his move on an episode of the True Geordie Podcast with Brian ‘True Geordie’ Smith and Laurence McKenna, Ninja called Gross Gore “the biggest douche I’ve ever seen,” and stated that his criticism was “bulls**t.” Unsurprisingly, Gross Gore was unhappy with the streamer’s decision to blast him, posting a video on Twitter with the caption; “Have the f**king balls to say my name before you try and sly diss me again.” “True Geordie and Ninja are talking about me on the latest podcast,” he said. “Am I (the biggest douche)? Really? Have I ever f**king been wrong? Never, you stupid w**k.” “I look like a douche? You’ve got smurf f**king hair mate. What are you on about? You couldn’t handle the truth. I’m so glad I’m in your f**king brain Ninja. I’m so glad you’re still thinking of me.” Have the fucking balls to say my name before you try & sly diss me again @Ninja pic.twitter.com/M0Vvd9uedZ — Ali Larsen (Gross Gore) (@GrossieGore) December 2, 2019 While some may have been stunned by the Twitch streamer’s outburst, Ninja appeared to take his jabs in his stride, sending back a simple: “Who are you?” in response to the video that had Twitter users in stitches at the brutal nature of his response. Gross Gore chose not to respond to Ninja, but that didn’t stop him from getting in another confrontation, sounding off at YouTuber JJ ‘KSI’ Olatunji who challenged him to a sparring session. During his appearance on the True Geordie Podcast, Ninja also discussed why he wants to be recognized as the world’s greatest gamer, and also explained why his move to Mixer was partly to help other Twitch broadcasters.

  • Gross Gore banned 30 days following allegations of sexual harassment and physical assault – Dexerto

    Gross Gore banned 30 days following allegations of sexual harassment and physical assault Twitch streamer Ali ‘Gross Gore’ Larsen has been banned from Twitch for 30 days in the aftermath of mounting sexual harassment and physical assault allegations. In the days following RuneFest 2018, which took place October 5-6, multiple attendees came forward with accusations towards Gross Gore of both sexual harassment and physical assault. While Gross Gore denied such claims, saying that any of his behavior could be contributed to his “flirty personality,” many wondered whether Twitch would hand out a ban of some sort in response to the allegations. Just 10 days after the accusations surfaced, Gross Gore has announced he had been handed a 30-day ban from Twitch. Well… Due to past event’s that happend last week. I’ve been issued a 30 day ban on Twitch & I am NOT allowed to attend Twitchcon.No words… I’ll be making VLOGS on my Youtube Channel & staying active on all social media until then… — Gross Gore (@GrossieGore) October 17, 2018 Moreover, since Twitch bans also dictate that banned streamers can’t appear on any Twitch-related stream whatsoever, Gross Gore will also be unable to attend TwitchCon in San Jose, California on October 26-28. In a video that has since been deleted from his now-inactive Twitch account, Gross Gore states that his ban was almost permanent, but someone at Twitch stepped in to prevent that from happening. Read more: Twitch streamer JasonR denies any wrongdoing in face of claims that he banned subscribers based on gender – It appears that his ban, however, doesn’t stem from the allegations made against him, but rather due to videos from RuneFest that showed Gross Gore crawling on his knees that had been “deemed as harassment.” No, I’m not allowed to stream on YouTube (confirmed just now by Twitch) as I’m still under Partner Contract. Just to clarify I wasn’t banned for the allegations, but banned for a clip of me at the event crawling on my knees as this was deemed as harassment.— Gross Gore (@GrossieGore) October 17, 2018 Gross Gore’s most recent banning from Twitch marks the second time the streamer has earned an extended ban from the platform, as he was previously banned for harassment allegations back in 2016.

  • Gross Gore blasts Mizkif and Pokelawls after blocking on Twitter – Dexerto

    Gross Gore blasts Mizkif and Pokelawls after blocking on Twitter Twitch: GrossieGore/MizkifPopular Twitch streamer Ali ‘Gross Gore’ Larsen hit out at fellow broadcasters Mizkif and Pokelawls by explaining why he had moved to unfollow and block the pair of them on Twitter. The British streamer who gained popularity through IRL (in-real-life) streams, can usually be found playing Runescape or World of Warcraft these days, keeping to himself rather than collaborating with others. However, that doesn’t mean that other streamers can’t impact his stream. In fact, he did just that when he aired his feelings about Mizkif and Pokelawls after explaining that he’d had enough of seeing them on Twitter. During his January 31 stream, the British streamer had been playing Runescape when one of his fans posted a clip of Mizkif reacting to a jokey Twitter video of his in the chat. Immediately, the streamer was confused by how Miz had been watching it, revealing that he had blocked him. “I’m not joking, I’ve blocked him on Twitter, I blocked him on Twitter – how is he looking at my Twitter?” Gross Gore asked before responding to Mizkif’s reaction to his video. “This is why you’re blocked Mizkif.” However, Gross Gore wasn’t finished there, after seeing Pokelawls get in on the act, he revealed that he had unfollowed him too because his fellow streamer had become “annoying as f**k.” Yet, he circled back to Mizfik – taking aim at him again. “The guy, for like a year and a half, he had 10k subs and 10k viewers, right,” Gross Gore said. “Then, he talks about my Twitter videos and he says ‘oh GrossGore, I hate his Twitter videos, he does them all for attention.’” The streamer continued: “Bro, you’ve got 10k subs and 10k viewers, and everything in your world is poggers. ‘Guys, I just took a s**t, poggers.’ Like, what’s up with that? Damn. And as for Pokelawls, I just found him really annoying so I unfollowed him and now he’s crying about it. Just stop. Who gives a f**k.” Despite that tangent from his game and attempts at leveling up in Runescape, the streamer quickly returned to his initial conversation – leaving fans laughing about his previous rant. As for his fellow streamers, well, it appears as if they’ll be staying on the blocked and unfollowed list for the foreseeable future – even if they can find a way to get around that.

  • Groom under fire for texting while walking down the aisle – Dexerto

    Groom under fire for texting while walking down the aisle TikTok: cynthiaumunzeA distracted groom is coming under fire after getting caught texting while walking with his newly-wedded wife down the aisle after saying their vows. Weddings are supposed to be fun-filled affairs celebrating the joining of two families — but more often than not, these big events can become catalysts for major drama. We’ve covered a heap of shocking wedding moments here on Dexerto, from guests getting slammed for wearing white dresses to their friend’s wedding to brides blacking out after having a little too much fun at their receptions… but this latest viral wedding situation is dropping jaws all across the internet. Picture this: You’re walking down the aisle with your partner after saying your vows when they pull out their phone and start texting someone, seemingly oblivious to the guests giving you their well-wishes and congratulations. Groom faces backlash for texting at wedding ceremony That’s exactly what happened to one bride after she and her brand-new hubby were walking out of a church after tying the knot, surrounded by friends and family congratulating them on their nuptials. A fifty-second clip of the moment shows the couple walking out of a church, during most of which the groom completely absorbed with his phone. That’s not all; at around thirty seconds in, the couple seems to have a bit of a tense conversation before making their way out of the venue. A video from the wedding was reposted from TikTok user ‘Cynthia Umunze’ to Twitter with the caption: “My body is here with you, but my mind is outside of town.” The clip has gone viral, amassing over 42 million views in just three days after being posted on June 2 — and commenters aren’t happy with the groom. “Y’all relationship truly inspire me… to be single,” one user wrote. “This is what he needs,” another wrote, attaching a photo of an old-fashioned ‘knuckle-sandwich.’ “This better be a skit,” another said. “If not, baby girl get an annulment NOW!” This better be a skit. If not baby girl get an annulment NOW!!!!!! — #BigMommasHouse #Superstarxxx #Bbwbootyhole (@KnobSlobberz) June 3, 2023 For now, it’s not clear what the couple was discussing in the video — but it does look like Cynthia’s TikTok video was deleted, and her account is nowhere to be found. This is just the latest jaw-dropping wedding video to take over the internet after commenters became furious with a groom’s explicit wedding vows that compared his wife and actress Margot Robbie, among other… interesting tidbits.

While he may have hoped to get a smile or laugh out of his new wife, her reaction was anything but. Instead of a smile, she can be seen visibly upset, with the Groom then reacting defensively and stating “It was just a joke.” TikToker Ryans_Truth_ reacted to the viral clip, offering up his thoughts on the awkward wedding moment. “This is just my opinion” began Ryan. “Now I know a lot of people feel like she should just be able to take a joke, especially on their wedding day because it wasn’t that serious.” However, Ryan offers up another perspective on the situation. “This woman has been dreaming and thinking about being married for the majority of her life. And now the time has finally arrived with the man she’s in love with…and this special and intimate moment has been ruined by a joke.” The comments section of Ryan’s TikTok, which now has over 750K views, is filled with people supporting the bride and defending her reaction and clear disappointment at the joke. “I would honestly cry and question everything, I’m an overthinker so I’ll probably think ‘Do they even want to marry me?” Another wrote “My SO made a joke at our wedding and tbh I never got over it. Still hurts thinking about it sometimes. It’s just not the time for a joke like that.” As well as defending her clear pain at the moment, other TikTok users applauded the bride for not being afraid to show that she was upset by the joke from her husband. “Honestly, I respect the hell out of her for showing how much it bugged her instead of trying to pretend it didn’t. She’s strong as hell,” commented another. For all the latest TikTok news and updates, be sure to check out Dexerto’s full coverage here.

  • Groom slammed on TikTok after being carried to aisle in a coffin – Dexerto

    Groom slammed on TikTok after being carried to aisle in a coffin TIKTOK: tobz88A groom went viral on TikTok after shocking guests, by turning up to his wedding in a coffin that was carried down the aisle. One baffled wedding guest filmed and shared a clip of the groom, as he made the bizarre choice to be carried into the outdoor ceremony in a black coffin. “Is this a funeral?? No, this is how my friend decided to walk down the aisle,” tobz88 wrote over the video, which has amassed over 8.3 million views. During the 1-minute clip, dramatic music is heard playing in the background, as a car arrives before the coffin is taken out of the trunk by six attendees. The wedding guests appeared confused at first, and then stunned when the groom popped out of the black coffin, after it was placed near the makeshift altar. One of the groomsmen shook his head in disbelief. “Tell me you’re dramatic without telling me you’re dramatic,” the video was captioned. Groom slammed over coffin stunt In the comments, most TikTok users were less than impressed with the groom for showing up in a coffin. “Tell me you don’t want to get married without telling me,” one wrote. “They all were so embarrassed. I’d be embarrassed as well, no offense,” another added. “We would be divorced before we said I do,” a third shared. “If I were his wife I wouldn’t have married him, I’d take it as ‘his life was over,’” someone else said. “And as a friend I wouldn’t go, I’d be too embarrassed.” Others, however, thought the bizarre move was hilarious. “Is this a ’till death do us part’ version for the man to note,” one user joked. “When you’ve been dying to walk down the aisle,” another quipped. “‘Over my dead body’ was taken way too seriously here,” someone else added.

  • Groom sparks debate after walking down the aisle to a Future song – Dexerto

    Groom sparks debate after walking down the aisle to a Future song Twitter: shannonsharpeeeSocial media has reacted to a groom walking down the aisle to a Future song, sparking a debate about his ‘toxicity.’ During a recent summer wedding, a groom stood before an outside venue full of friends and family where he would soon await his wife as she walked down the aisle. Though the tradition of a wedding is to prioritize the bride, this groom had other intentions, taking hold of the ceremony and making it his own, as he chose to walk down the aisle to a rap song by Future. Now that a video of the groom’s wedding entrance has gone viral, social media has reacted, debating on whether or not his actions were acceptable. Twitter says the new marriage is “doomed from the start” In a pink and white rose-covered wedding ceremony, a bride and groom said their vows for better or for worse. However, before the bride made her way down the aisle, the groom made his entrance to await his soon-to-be wife. But this was no ordinary entrance, as the groom clearly wanted to make a statement of his own in front of his closest friends and family. Not only did the groom steal the show with his white and black tuxedo with a classic bow tie, but he also surprised his guests with a Future song as he walked towards the marriage officiant. The song he chose was ‘I’m dat N—’ which consists of flagrant lyrics such as, “I turn average b—hs to a Popstar.” Bro walked out to future song “I’m Dat n****” at his wedding 😂🔥💯 pic.twitter.com/gKeB0QzCQI — Shannonnn sharpes Burner (PARODY Account) (@shannonsharpeee) August 24, 2023 Additional lyrics to the song include, “A boss, my left wrist a faucet (brr). My ring cost, it’s pink like an ostrich (brr). I feel lost, this b— got herself hostage (brr). I done got exhausted, runnin’ through the money (brr).” However, the groom chose to walk down the aisle to the chorus of the song which repeatedly said, “hot, hot, hot, I’m dat N—.” Since the groom’s video has gone viral, viewers have debated his behavior with some calling him “toxic,” as well as, “corny and lame as hell.” Others urged people to let the man live his best life, saying, “If you can’t vibe to your favorite song on your wedding day, what’s the point of getting married!? Anybody mad at this is mad at themselves.” If you can’t vibe to your fav song on your wedding day what’s the point of getting married!? Anybody mad at this is mad at themselves 😂 — 🌹 𝐒𝐘𝐍 🌹 (@PrydeKnx) August 24, 2023 While another agreed, saying, “It’s your day, live it your way,” and “Let that man vibe.” However, there were also people who claimed that the relationship was “doomed from the start.” While another concurred, saying, “Don’t expect him to be faithful.” Though there was no follow-up video regarding the bride’s entrance, the wedding guests were elated to see the groom having such a good time. There have also been no comments from the groom on his choice of song and decision to woo the crowd with his unique walk down the aisle.

Starting off her speech, the bride said: “The past year and a half, you have been working so hard to make sure we can build the home of our dreams.” But her heartfelt words were interrupted, as she was bombarded with bird poop. “Did I just get s**t on?” the bride asked, unsure what the slimy substance was. “I don’t know,” her groom replied, struggling to contain his laughter. He then wiped the guano off her shoulder, before she realized that it was in fact bird faeces. “Oh my God. Are you kidding me? Yeah it s**t on me!” she exclaimed, before joining her groom in laughter as their amused family and friends watched on. “It smells. It smells pretty bad!” her soon-to-be husband said, failing to hold back his chuckles. TikTok users in the comments explained that a bird pooping on you is a sign of good luck in some cultures. “I would be mortified if I was the bride,” one user said. “But a bird pooping on you is a sign of good luck in some cultures.” “It is good luck!

  • Grocery store called out for putting hairspray with food: “Y’all gonna kill somebody” – Dexerto

    Grocery store called out for putting hairspray with food: “Y’all gonna kill somebody” Flickr/AmbrosiaRose88/TikTokA woman is calling out a Kroger grocery store for an aisle mishap that could result in people accidentally cooking with hairspray. Grocery stores go viral all the time in this day and age with so many people having access to social media and the latest incident could be a catastrophe waiting to happen. In October 7, TikToker ‘Big T’ uploaded a video of an aisle in a Kroger store that had made a pretty big error while stocking cooking oils. As users could see in the clip, Kroger had placed Olive Oil Nourishing Sheen Spray next to Avocado Oil, completely in the wrong section – something Big T warned was a recipe for disaster. Kroger warned after putting hairspray in food aisle Since being posted, the video has gone viral, amassing nearly 5 million views with fellow users concerned that someone could cook with hairspray by mistake. “Whoever working at Kroger, I’m going to need them to learn how to do their job. This is hairspray, y’all gonna kill somebody,” Big T said. “This is how that girl got stuck with that Gorilla Glue.” To make matters worse, the TikToker returned to the store and noticed that the cans still hadn’t been moved and admitted that she may as well just tell Kroger about the mistake herself. In the comments, other users shared their experiences and revealed that this may be a much more common mistake than once thought. “My husband literally almost bought this thinking it was the cooking spray,” one remarked. “I swear my DAD made some fried eggs one day and with one bite I stopped everyone in the dining room from eating. Ran to the kitchen and saw the can,” another recalled. So far, Big T hasn’t posted another update on the situation, but hopefully, no one ended up mistaking the cans for cooking and they were moved to their proper location.

  • Grocery store worker shocked as customer buys $1,000 of groceries with empty food stamps card – Dexerto

    Grocery store worker shocked as customer buys $1,000 of groceries with empty food stamps card TikTok: ayeitslikA Food Lion employee took to TikTok to shade a customer for having him ring up over $1,000 worth of groceries without being able to afford any of it. One would assume that customers who shop and fill a grocery basket up with items would be able to afford said items in the cart. However, for one Food Lion customer, that wasn’t the case. It wasn’t that they didn’t want the products they chose, like Gatorade, Ramen Noodles, lasagna dinners, and plenty more, it was that they weren’t able to afford it. Sure, they had food stamps — but not enough, causing a Food Lion worker to shade the customer in a now-viral TikTok video. Food Lion customer filled three carts full of groceries they didn’t take home A Food Lion employee by the name of Malik recently took to TikTok to expose a customer for not being able to afford their groceries. The video shows at least three full carts of food ranging from Hungry Man meals to assorted beverages and snacks like Rice Crispy Treats and Mott’s Gummies. Though the customer wasn’t revealed, Malik videotaped their receipt of food that they made him ring up, despite not taking a single item home. In the now-viral video, Malik opened with the commentary, “This y’all, this is why… three carts full! They didn’t even buy it and that’s what makes me mad.” Malik proceeded to explain that everything the customer had in their multiple carts had not even been rung up yet. He also captioned his video, “I hate food stamp day,” as the customer allegedly didn’t have the cash nor food stamps to cover their groceries. Those who have seen Malik’s video commented on their own shopping stories, saying, “I’m over here with my calculator out in the store making sure I don’t go over $160 per week for four people with our 50-hour work week.” While another asked the rightful question, “How do people not check their card balance before going to the store?” One person even became nostalgic, remembering when three carts full of groceries used to cost roughly $300 instead of $1,000. Though news reporters from The Daily Dot reached out to Malik for comments regarding the large grocery haul, he has yet to make an additional statement separate from his TikTok video. However, the viral video has reached at least 1.1 million views with almost 3,000 comments regarding people’s own grocery shopping and employee stories.

  • Grimes faces backlash on TikTok over her theory about A.I & communism – Dexerto

    Grimes faces backlash on TikTok over her theory about A.I & communism TikTok: GrimesSinger and producer Grimes has faced backlash after she posted a TikTok with a bizarre theory about artificial intelligence and communism. While it isn’t rare to see her bizarre and strange posts online, musician Grimes (real name Claire Boucher) has managed to confused everyone once again after posting a strange TikTok in which she claimed that AI would be the fastest path to communism. Boucher filmed herself in front of an image from Japanese Manga comic Berserk using the green screen filter and said: “I have a proposition for the communists. So, typically most of the communisms I know are not big fans of A.I. But, if you think about it, A.I is actually the fastest path to communism. “A.I could automate all the farming, weed out systematic corruption, thereby bringing us as close as possible to genuine equality,” she continued. “So basically, everything everybody loves about communism but without the collective farm ’cause, let’s be real, enforced farming is really not a vibe.” The entire thing left many people totally baffled, especially considering her relationship with Tesla founder Elon Musk, one of the world’s richest men — a far cry from the communist ideas Grimes speaks on. One person in response on TikTok wrote, “Bestie, how you gonna talk about communism when your husband is a capitalist,” to which Grimes herself responded “Haha I am not a communist! This is a joke – but maybe the technocrats and communists could get along!” Another commenter referred to Elon Musk, writing “But AI is currently in the hands of capitalists like your lil boyfriend which will not just give it for free.” On Twitter, people were also confused with one tweet in response with more than 6,000 likes saying “lmao please what the f*ck is grimes talking about.” lmao please what the fuck is grimes talking about pic.twitter.com/mrFuH4Ouvb — Olivia Little (@OliviaLittle) June 3, 2021 People continue to be amazed by Grimes and Elon Musk as a couple and while their political views may differ, they certainly have a shared passion for new technology.

  • ‘Grinch’ mom under fire on TikTok for telling 4 year old son Santa “isn’t real” – Dexerto

    ‘Grinch’ mom under fire on TikTok for telling 4 year old son Santa “isn’t real” TikTok and CanvaTikTok mom Charlie Hayes has broken the golden rule of childhood — disclosing the secret of Santa Claus to her four-year-old son, Jasper. The ‘grinch’ mother told him Santa “isn’t real”, and the child proceeded to tell everyone at school about it, with everyone having a laugh about it. With the holidays creeping around the corner, the beloved international super star, Santa Claus, comes back into the conversation. Many used to celebrate his magical gift giving, but parents are now wondering if its really okay to deceive their children in such a way. TikToker Charlie ‘churchofstrawberry’ Hayes expressed her opinions on the matter. “So basically as a mum, I don’t do Santa. I think it’s bullsh*t,” she mentions in the beginning of the video. She continues on, listing out her reasons: “One, I wanna get credit for the presents. Two, I don’t want Jasper thinking Santa Claus is scum or what, the rich kids get better presents. No, the parents buy them. Three, I don’t want to deal with the heartbreak of finding out Santa isn’t real at a later date after lying to him his entire life.” Her reasoning here makes logical sense, but people had more issues with the latter part of the story. “Christmas will always be magical for him, because he never had any bullsh*t surrounding the event. So I’m quite factual with him, and told him Santa was actually based on Saint Nicholas, who lived a hundred years ago,” Hayes shared. But since the kid has a basic understanding of lifespan, he therefore knew that Saint Nicholas has since passed. “This f**ker keeps telling all the kids at school that Santa is dead. I’m so sorry if your kid goes to school with my kid,” Hayes admitted towards the end of the video. Commentors shared their own opinion on the matter: “It’s completely up to you how you go about it with your child, however when it’s ruining it for other kids I think that’s unfair,” one user stated. Another viewer provided an alternative solution: “we tell our kids ‘mommy and daddy buys the presents and Santa delivers them like an Amazon man with magic.’” The alternative handles the money and present comparison issues that arise, but still relies on deception to keep the magic alive. There is no real perfect answer, but that is often the case when it comes to parenting.

  • Grimes accidentally punched Bella Poarch in the face on set of ‘Dolls’ video – Dexerto

    Grimes accidentally punched Bella Poarch in the face on set of ‘Dolls’ video YouTube: Bella PoarchMusic artist Grimes accidentally landed a sucker punch on Bella Poarch’s face while filming their epic fight scene for the ‘Dolls’ music video — and the internet is gobsmacked. Bella Poarch unleashed the cinematic music video for her latest song ‘Dolls’ this July, and fans have already watched it over 8.7 million times on YouTube. The action-packed video includes a fast-paced fight between Bella Poarch (who plays a humanoid robot that breaks free from its programming) and Grimes, who portrays an android assassin working for the opposition. While their fight ends in a mutual understanding that both women have a common enemy, it features some majorly kick-ass moments — like Grimes literally Hulk-smashing Bella Poarch into the floor. However, fans might not know that things actually got physical for real during filming. Behind the scenes footage of the video shows Grimes and Poarch exchanging fake “blows” before Grimes actually landed a punch to Poarch’s face. Grimes instantly stopped the choreography to ask the shocked Poarch if she was alright. It looks as though the ‘Dolls’ singer was just fine, and their fight scene obviously came out flawlessly. Fans can’t help but point out the fact that Grimes asked Poarch if she’d ever been punched in the face prior to filming the fight scene, and Poarch herself expressed some fear before the cameras rolled: “I don’t know. I’m like, scared. I might hit her. She might hit me.” (Topic begins at 0:20) That’s not all; Grimes even admitted that she might win in a real fight between herself and Poarch… provided she could “cheat” and if it were a “fight to the death.” Fans are rolling over the unexpected moment, with some even suggesting the gals go head-to-head for the next Creator Clash. While it’s clear there’s nothing but love between these powerhouse artists, this slip-up certainly made for a hilarious clip that has fans laughing out loud… but Bella’s past military training could give her a leg up if she ever decides to get into boxing.

    Grimace’s takeover continues as Skyrim mod introduces the purple shake in-game Bethesda Game Studios / Gabby RomeroThe Grimace Shake has become an unstoppable internet sensation, with its latest conquest reaching the lands of Skyrim. When McDonald’s announced a new purple meal celebrating the birthday of its character ‘Grimace’ the internet went wild with countless memes and plenty of cursed lore. In particular, the mysterious Grimace Shake has captured the interest of many content creators. The weirdly infectious phenomenon has made one thing clear: don’t drink the purple concoction. While TikTok was the first to engage with the purple monster’s birthday shake, Grimace has since spread his evil clutches to various platforms and games. Now the drink is continuing to wreak havoc, this time shaking things up on Skyrim. Uploaded by user MissleMann, the Grimace Mead mod is a new addition to the game and can be purchased from Belethor’s General Goods in Whiterun. The mod description doesn’t give away what properties the shake offers, stating, “Go and purchase the one-of-a-kind mead Belethor made to celebrate his good friend’s birthday. He only has one, just for you! So make sure to enjoy it! Happy Birthday Grimace!” Based on playthroughs on YouTube, the shake transports players to a new secondary location with various side effects. Sometimes the screen is obscured by a purple haze, while other times players have found themselves surrounded by a strange purple goo. While the Grimace Shake doesn’t actually have any serious real-life consequences, it doesn’t seem like the internet will stop churning out cursed Grimace content any time soon.

  • Griffin reveals suspicions of Dixie D’Amelio & Noah during relationship – Dexerto

    Griffin reveals suspicions of Dixie D’Amelio & Noah during relationship Instagram: Griffin Johnson/ YouTube: Dixie D’AmelioTikToker Griffin Johnson has said that he was suspicious of Noah Beck and Dixie D’Amelio’s budding romance while he was still in a relationship with her. Griffin and Dixie dated earlier this year, but the relationship came under scrutiny in early July after TikToker Chase Hudson accused Johnson of cheating on Dixie with two other women. Later on, Dixie revealed she had an alleged “48 screenshots” of proof that Griffin had cheated. Thereafter Griffin faced huge backlash for his behavior online including a ‘fake’ apology he posted to YouTube. Since the debacle, rumors about Dixie D’Amelio and Noah Beck being romantically involved were heavily fuelled by the kiss they shared in the music video for Dixie’s song ‘Be Happy.’ The pair then confirmed they were dating in October. This week Griffin was a guest on BFFs with Josh Richards and Dave Portnoy. Since launching the podcast Dave has already built up a reputation for probing into TikTok drama and this week was no different as he challenged Griffin about Noah and Dixie. It’s no secret how Griffin feels about the pair after he released a diss track on them in September, but he has only now revealed that he thinks something more was brewing while he and Dixie were still together. He told Dave, “There was a lot of weird sh*t going on between them the entire time. It was weird dude, they had this best friends group and they were going on trips to Malibu, or whatever they would do at night, and I thought about it and I was like ‘this is weird’.” Dave responded, “I’m gonna give you very honest advice. If you’re dating a girl and she’s going on BFF trips to Malibu at night, your girl is f**king somebody else…unless Noah isn’t straight which he clearly is because they’re dating.” On Tuesday, November 17 Griffin tweeted “Before this BFFs podcast comes out I would just like to say that I have nothing but love for everyone,” appearing to anticipate that any drama might ensue. before this BFFs podcast comes out i would just like to say that i have nothing but love for everyone — Griffin Johnson (@lmgriffjohnson) November 17, 2020 However, neither Dixie nor Noah have commented on the issue so far, leaving fans to wonder whether Griffin’s suspicions were justified.

  • Grimace Shake trend inventor breaks silence as it’s taken over the internet – Dexerto

    Grimace Shake trend inventor breaks silence as it’s taken over the internet thefrazmaz/TikTokThe inventor of the controversial Grimace Shake trend on TikTok has opened up about his video going viral. He also discussed how he first came up with the idea of the bizarre trend. The Grimace shake trend has taken the internet’s storm, much to McDonalds workers’ dismay. The trend includes TikTokers taking a sip of their Grimace Shake and then finding themselves on the floor. Typically, they’re surrounded by a crime scene, as if the drink has poisoned them. But where did the trend start? TikToker Fraz (@thefrazmaz) posted a video on June 14 which now has over 3.2 million views, where he wished Grimace a happy birthday and then pretended to have died after trying the drink, as the last clip showed him lying on the floor with the shake all over his mouth and on the floor. For the caption he jokingly wrote: “R.I.P Grimace (and me) Fraz reveals the inspiration for the Grimace Shake trend As the trend has been making rounds on TikTok, Fraz posts another video explaining how he was inspired to create the video which now has over 10m views. “What does this trend mean? Is the shake bad? What’s going on?” Fraz asked. “Since I am the original ‘victim’ of Grimace, it’s quite literally just a meme.” “When I decided to make this video, I was thinking, ‘Oh this is like the Spider-Verse burger,’ it’s an unnatural color, it’s unique.” He added: “And I saw a guy do it with the burger where he took a bite and the next scene was him in the hospital. So I was like, let’s do something similar. “It’s just supposed to be a meme about, it’s a really weird color, it means it’s not good you, Grimace is collecting victims… It’s just funny, ya know.” Fraz further explained in the caption: “I originally made it for a quick, funny, one-off video, and a lot of people jumped on board which honestly made it so much funnier.”

  • Griffin Johnson trolls FaZe Jarvis after leaking Addison Rae’s number – Dexerto

    Griffin Johnson trolls FaZe Jarvis after leaking Addison Rae’s number Instagram: GriffinJohnson / YouTube: FaZe JarvisFaZe Clan’s Jarvis ‘Jarvis’ Khattri has come under fire for accidentally leaking Addison Rae’s phone number, leading to backlash from some of the biggest TikTok stars like Griffin Johnson and Bryce Hall. Jarvis is never one to stay out of the spotlight for all too long. Whether it’s good deeds for the community or getting banned on multiple social media platforms, he’s always striving to be the center of attention. His YouTube channel follows that same mentality, with many of his videos pushing boundaries for the sake of content. The latest idea was to message 100 fellow YouTube celebs and ask for a simple dare. Barely a few minutes into the video, however, and Jarvis had already run into some issues without realizing. The fifth person on his list was Addison Rae. Given that he’d already been in contact prior to the video, some personal information showed up, revealing her phone number in the original edit. Naturally, it didn’t take long before TikTok personalities fired back at him. The leak went completely unnoticed while recording, but Rae’s partner Bryce Hall made sure Jarvis couldn’t live it down. “You’re an idiot,” he bluntly tweeted on December 7. Just moments later, fellow TikToker Griffin Johnson has followed up with a more thoughtful response. There were no words in his reply, just a meme that clearly had some effort put into it. While Pokemon cards are a huge trend again, Johnson decided to put Jarvis on one of his own. A ‘fake’ card for that matter. The meme has Jarvis at his most viral moment, crying in response to his permanent Fortnite ban. It also includes some key stats like 200 in the “aimbot” category for aiming “every freaking shot.” Another power is simply the “banned cry” which would have this theoretical Pokemon crying “for like an hour.” Clearly, the two were frustrated by Rae’s personal information being leaked online. Though Jarvis wouldn’t let them have the final word. He replied to Hall’s tweet before quickly deleting it seconds later. “So we’re both cheaters then,” the since-removed post said. This could be the end of the beef, but there’s always a chance the internet personalities continue butting heads over this issue. Rae is yet to make a comment on the leaks, but we’ll be sure to keep you posted if that changes.

  • Griffin Johnson under fire for ‘fake’ apology after Dixie D’Amelio drama – Dexerto

    Griffin Johnson under fire for ‘fake’ apology after Dixie D’Amelio drama YouTube: Griffin JohnsonGriffin Johnson has found himself in hot water once again after uploading a misleading apology video on August 12, following his scandalous breakup with former partner Dixie D’Amelio. TikTok stars Johnson and D’Amelio didn’t have the smoothest breakup among internet celebrities. Following rumors of Johnson’s infidelity, the couple unfollowed each other on social media to begin with. Despite denying the cheating allegations at first, D’Amelio soon spoke out and all but confirmed the situation. While the former couple has been relatively quiet since the relationship came to an end, many expected an apology out of Johnson. With daily uploads still coming through on his YouTube channel, the messy breakup had to be brought up sooner or later. It finally seemed the 21-year-old was ready to address the controversy on August 12 with an upload titled ‘I messed up.’ However, the community soon erupted in a wave of backlash after hearing what the video was actually about. “The real story… of how I messed up,” the description reads for his latest upload. Naturally, his near 1 million subscribers assumed this would be his apology to D’Amelio. Though just seconds into the video, it appeared that wasn’t the case and his wording was purely there to mislead viewers. “I made a bet with Bryce that I was going to hit a million subs on YouTube before his birthday,” he said. While “it was a good run,” he’s still 15,000 away from reaching that goal. “I messed up… just wanted to tell you guys I’m sorry,” he expressed sarcastically. Not only was the video title misleading, but Johnson also decided to post on a special day. August 12 is D’Amelio’s birthday and he even addressed her directly in the video. “Shoutout to Dixie, happy birthday to you. You’ve done a lot for me so hope you have a good day doing whatever you’re doing.” Closing in on 10,000 dislikes at the time of writing, the video hasn’t landed well with his audience. “No one actually cares about that stupid bet,” one fan said. “We want to hear your apology to Dixie like she deserves.” “He’s more worried about a stupid bet than he is about cheating on a girl,” another responded. “He actually said happy birthday Dixie, can you actually believe this man.” The video was clearly intended to rile up his community and Johnson doubled down on this towards the end. “Thanks for watching this, I’m sorry if you thought it was going to be something more. This is just really important to me,” he concluded. There are no signs that he’ll offer a more formal apology to his former partner anytime soon. While he doesn’t seem all too phased by the breakup, D’Amelio has revealed that she’s not looking for a new relationship anytime soon.

  • Griffin Johnson responds to Kelly Osbourne dating rumors – Dexerto

    Griffin Johnson responds to Kelly Osbourne dating rumors Instagram: Griffin Johnson, Kelly OsbourneWith rumors swirling about the nature of Griffin Johnson’s relationship with Kelly Osbourne after they were papped going for dinner, the Sway House star has put an end to the rumors once and for all. Griffin Johnson only recently had an extremely messy breakup with fellow TikTok star Dixie D’Amelio, but as she has moved on with new man Noah Beck, it seems like fans are more fascinated than ever by Griffin Johnson’s own relationship status. This led to a celebrity reporter at The Hollywood Fix confronting Johnson and his manager Michael Dunmore during a dinner at Craig’s in LA – the same restaurant he went with Osbourne that started all these rumors in the first place. When the reporter asked Johnson why he and Kelly Osbourne “have been spending so much time together”, the two of them didn’t hesitate to set the record straight. Topic starts at 4:12 “Well, he’s trying to be a host and Kelly is one of the best,” Dunmore explained. Gesturing to Johnson, Dunmore said repeatedly that Kelly was “a mentor” to the rising star. “She’s just a mentor,” the manager insisted. With the reporter remaining unconvinced, they asked Johnson whether they were “saving this tea for the podcast”, to which Johnson replied, “No, actually”. Swiftly changing the subject, Johnson added that his “podcast is doing really well”, adding that there was a new episode coming out soon. How did these rumors about Johnson and Osbourne start? Griffin Johnson and Kelly Osbourne put the rumor mill into overdrive after they were spotted eating dinner together at Craig’s in LA earlier this month.

  • Griffin Johnson seems to call Dixie D’Amelio a ‘dog’ in Noah Beck duet – Dexerto

    Griffin Johnson seems to call Dixie D’Amelio a ‘dog’ in Noah Beck duet YouTube: Griffin Johnson, Dixie D’AmelioTikTok star Griffin Johnson became the brunt of internet backlash after splitting up with Dixie D’Amelio in August — and now, he’s taking even more heat thanks to his caption on a recent duet video. [jwplayer ZXB9LNVP] Griffin and Dixie shocked the net by breaking up a few months ago, with Dixie hinting at infidelity on her ex-boyfriend’s part as reason for their split. This became confirmed after she leaked several screenshots that showed him talking to other girls, prompting an outpouring of anger against the Sway House member for seemingly cheating on the oldest D’Amelio sister. Now, Griffin has become the center of yet another episode of outrage thanks to his caption on a duet with TikToker Noah Beck — another member of the Sway House and Dixie’s new boyfriend. View this post on Instagram make sure to go check out my youtube video w @noahbeck !!! link in bio 🖤 The duet shows Griffin, Noah and Vinnygotheat dancing to Britney Spears’ ‘Gimme More,’ while Noah holds up a German Shephard pup. On the other side of the screen, Griffin appears to sit on a toilet, giving the camera a confused look as Noah lifts the dog up in the air. However, the content of the TikTok isn’t what has viewers flummoxed — instead, it’s Griffin’s caption, which reads, “NOAH PLS DON’T STEAL MY DOG.” While it would appear that Griffin’s caption is simply referring to the adorable animal in the video, some viewers are taking it to mean that he’s actually talking about Dixie — especially considering that Noah ended up dating Dixie shortly after she and Griffin broke up. Multiple comments on the video show that viewers are convinced Griffin is throwing shade at Noah, although the two have already “made up” in the past and even collaborated for the very video he duetted. Griffin is also known for joking about the backlash he receives online, notably making a fake apology video after fans accused him of cheating on Dixie D’Amelio when news of their breakup first hit the net. For now, it seems like Griffin’s relationship with public sentiment will continue to be as volatile as it’s ever been — especially if he keeps talking about his and Dixie’s past romance.

  • Griffin Johnson slams Dixie D’Amelio & Noah Beck in new diss track – Dexerto

    Griffin Johnson slams Dixie D’Amelio & Noah Beck in new diss track Instagram: Griffin Johnson/ YouTube: Dixie D’Amelio[jwplayer ZXB9LNVP]TikToker Griffin Johnson has released a diss track aimed at ex-girlfriend Dixie D’Amelio and Sway house member Noah Beck after they kissed in Dixie’s latest music video. Griffin Johnson was recently dumped by Dixie D’Amelio after cheating rumors surfaced that he has since denied. After the dramatic breakup, Griffin has faced backlash online for his behavior online including a ‘fake’ apology he posted to YouTube. In the meantime, Dixie has been killing it with recent projects including her and Charli’s collaboration with Morphe, a partnership with Hollister, and all the promotion around her single ‘Be Happy.’ On September 20, Dixie released the music video for the remix to the song with Blackbear and Lil Mosey. Fans of the star went crazy over the scene in the video of Noah Beck and Dixie kissing on a beach, seemingly confirming that the pair could be dating. Despite major signs that appeared to give the impression the two were in a relationship or at least testing the waters, the pair have previously denied any involvement with each other. Noah said that they were “just best friends, just good friends” which dashed the hopes of many fans. Just last week it appeared that Griffin was totally fine with the situation. He said to the Hollywood Fix, “Yeah, dude, I don’t care. We’re friends!” when asked about Noah and Dixie. “They looked happy,” he continued “Noah’s doggin’ out. Respect, you know?” “It’s just people chirping, you know? I would say it’s almost like good fun. They’re giving us a hard time. I don’t really take it that deep.” However, Griffin is evidently less than fine with the potential new couple, after he released his diss track “Convenient” on YouTube on Sunday. While he didn’t mention Noah or Dixie by name, the references are unmissable. In the chorus, Griffin says, “She said I cheated, that’s just fucked up, but you believed it, ain’t that convenient.” Referring to his breakup with Dixie and the “dirty laundry” exposed online, he raps “She took it out of context, now my heart’s in the comments,” and “you text me while I’m writing this song like you know the difference between right and wrong.” With clear reference to Noah Beck, Griffin says, “You said you’re just friends but you’re wearing his clothes.” In a world full of deception, be the person that forgives. I’m setting the record straight, but I’ve forgiven. Life’s too short to hold a grudge. — Griffin Johnson (@lmgriffjohnson) September 21, 2020 Griffin has since posted cryptic tweets that appear to refer to the track, saying “Cheaters cheat, lovers love. I’m a lover.” and “In a world full of deception, be the person that forgives. I’m setting the record straight, but I’ve forgiven. Life’s too short to hold a grudge.” Both Noah and Dixie are yet to respond.

  • Griffin Johnson reacts to Noah Beck feud “rumors” over Dixie D’Amelio – Dexerto

    Griffin Johnson reacts to Noah Beck feud “rumors” over Dixie D’Amelio YouTube: Griffin Johnson, Interview Magazine[jwplayer ksH6zuKH]TikTok stars Griffin Johnson and Dixie D’Amelio became the center of social media drama after purported claims of infidelity — and now that Dixie could be moving on, some fans think there might be a feud between Griffin and her new beau. Okay, there’s a lot to unpack here, so let’s start from the top: the scandal started in early July, after TikTok queen Charli D’Amelio began shading her own ex-boyfriend, Chase Hudson, with hints that he’d cheated on her. Things only escalated after Hudson took the opportunity to expose other high-profile TikTokers for their own relationship problems, claiming that Griffin Johnson had cheated on Dixie with two other women. Naturally, this seemed to have caused some tension in their relationship, as the two parted ways shortly thereafter, with Dixie even begging fans to stop harassing Griffin over their relationship issues. https://www.instagram.com/p/CCU6bKbnDIu/?utm_source=ig_web_copy_link However, Dixie wasn’t playing nice for too long, and went on to state that she’s got a grand total of 48 screenshots that prove he cheated on her (not looking good, Griff!). Now, it seems that Dixie has moved on to TikToker Noah Beck (although the two have clearly stated they’re just friends) — and some fans think this might be introducing some tension between he and Griffin. Johnson dispelled these rumors during an interview with the Hollywood Fix on September 8, claiming that the speculation is just that — speculation. https://www.instagram.com/p/CEkU5V3nsfG/?utm_source=ig_web_copy_link “Aw, that’s not true,” he answered when prompted with the rumors. “Yeah, dude, I don’t care. We’re friends!” “They looked happy,” he continued after being asked about Noah and Dixie’s paparazzi beach photos. “Noah’s doggin’ out. Respect, you know?” “It’s just people chirping, you know?” he continued. “I would say it’s almost like good fun. They’re giving us a hard time. I don’t really take it that deep.” (Topic begins at 0:33) It seems that Griffin and Dixie have since made up, with Griffin even issuing a public apology to his ex-girlfriend via Twitter shortly after she spoke up about her purported screenshots. While it’s always fun to sit back and wonder about celebrities’ love lives, in the end, they are private affairs — and rumors aren’t always an indication of truth.

  • Griffin Johnson removes Dixie D’Amelio diss from Spotify & Apple Music – Dexerto

    Griffin Johnson removes Dixie D’Amelio diss from Spotify & Apple Music Instagram: imgriffinjohnson, dixiedamelio[jwplayer ZXB9LNVP] After receiving a significant amount of backlash from fans and friends alike, TikToker Griffin Johnson has removed the diss track he wrote about ex-girlfriend Dixie D’Amelio from streaming services such as Spotify and Apple Music. When he first dropped the song on September 20, it immediately took off online with his friends hyping it up and, as expected, many of Dixie’s fans from TikTok kicking off online. While Griffin never said the track itself was explicitly about Dixie or new flame Noah Beck, it had clear allusions to the two and references that appear to be about his former relationship with Dixie. Now, though, it appears he may be looking to backtrack. After Dixie used the song as a backing track for a TikTok to expose Griffin’s infidelity with screenshots of his messages to other girls, it picked up even more steam and the situation began to grow bigger than it already was. Even Bryce Hall got involved, slamming the Hype House for their reactions to the track, calling out their “disgusting habits” as a result. Now, though, it looks like the backlash has become too much, as Johnson has removed the song from both Spotify and Apple Music. It’s unclear why Griffin decided to do this, as he has not commented publicly on the issue, but the lyric track remains live on his YouTube channel for his fans to keep listening. Whether or not this video gets removed eventually, or the track returns to streaming services, remains to be seen. He received plenty of backlash for the track, and perhaps didn’t expect to be exposed by Dixie as a result, so he might be regretting his decision to release the song right now.

  • Griffin Johnson laughs off Dixie D’Amelio’s struggle to forgive him – Dexerto

    Griffin Johnson laughs off Dixie D’Amelio’s struggle to forgive him Instagram: dixiedamelio/imgriffinjohnsonIn the week following the release of Griffin Johnson’s explosive new track ‘Convenient’, the drama between him and Dixie D’Amelio, the once-unbreakable TikTok couple, has just kept coming. When Griffin Johnson dropped his new diss track on September 20, it came hot on the cusp of a lot of drama for the former power couple. When Dixie D’Amelio wasn’t busy passionately kissing rumored new man Noah Beck in a raunchy music video, she was publicly slamming Johnson for allegedly cheating on her after previously denying the claims. Although Johnson bit back with his revelatory diss track, it wasn’t up for long, after the TikToker opted to later remove the track from the Apple Music and Spotify streaming platforms. But, it seems like, for Dixie D’Amelio, the damage had already been done, as she ended up unfollowing her ex on Instagram. In a conversation with reporter Kevin Wong, D’Amelio seemed to make it clear that there was no going back for the former couple. When asked by Wong whether she and Griffin were on good terms following her unfollowing of him on social media, she said bluntly: “I don’t think so, but I’m chilling.” However, while D’Amelio was clearly still smarting over the diss track incident, Johnson seemed a lot more cheery when he bumped into Wong a few days later. When Wong recounted his conversation with Dixie to Johnson and asked him how he felt about it, his immediate response was to chuckle and say “boobs” as his friends laughed along in the car. Griffin was then pressed about whether he’d be willing to forgive Dixie if she ever forgave him, and seemed a bit more positive in his response, dropping the jokes to tell the reporter that he’d “hope for the best” in terms of repairing the relationship. What was the diss track drama? When Griffin Johnson released his diss track in September, a lot of fans were shocked at the stark references to the fallout of his relationship with Dixie D’Amelio. In what was clearly a jibe at the ’48 screenshots’ worth of evidence D’Amelio posted detailing Johnson’s alleged infidelity, one line of the song said, “She took it out of context, now my heart’s in the comments”. Other lyrics seemed to allude to her budding romance with Noah Beck, as the song mentions how “you said you’re just friends but you’re wearing his clothes.” It didn’t take long for D’Amelio to weigh in, as she posted a TikTok showing further evidence of his cheating alongside the backing track of his song, and since then it seems the relationship between the two has gone well and truly downhill.

    Griffin Johnson not surprised Bryce Hall & Addison Rae are official again Instagram: GriffinJohnson / Instagram: AddisonRaeBryce Hall and Addison Rae just announced that they’re officially back together again, though fellow TikTok star Griffin Johnson has explained why he wasn’t surprised at all. After a full year of on again off again social media teasers, ‘Braddison’ is finally official. Despite months of dodging rumors and claiming they were just friends, the two TikTok celebs officially confirmed their relationship on November 30. “He asked me out on October 13 to be his girlfriend,” Rae explained in a November 30 YouTube video. “This is our second time dating.” While the confirmation set the internet ablaze, with fans around the world overjoyed at the news, one TikTok star wasn’t all too shocked.

Obviously one of Hall’s closest friends, he’s sure to have known the good news for quite some time now. After taking things slow throughout all of 2020, it came as no surprise to Johnson that the duo got back together. The newly reformed TikTok couple kept things under wraps at first. A few months went by as they got the relationship going for the second time before making it public. “Well, it’s the internet,” Johnson said, implying the two kept things under wraps to avoid new levels of attention.

  • Griffin Johnson is roasting troll comments on TikTok and it’s amazing – Dexerto

    Griffin Johnson is roasting troll comments on TikTok and it’s amazing YouTube: Griffin JohnsonGriffin Johnson is no stranger to troll comments, but this time he fired back and roasted them in one of his latest viral TikTok videos. [jwplayer ZXB9LNVP] Griffin Johnson is no stranger to troll comments. It’s inevitable when you have almost ten million followers on TikTok. However, in one of his latest viral videos, he decided to strike back with a vengeance and dropped some absolute fire. In the video, he is wearing a king’s robe and crown with Canceled by Larray blaring in the background. Then, he proceeds to act out the lyrics, which say, “Let’s start off with Bryce Hall, yeah, he got some smelly balls. B**ch, I only know his name, ’cause Addison gave him fame.” In the first scene, he poses next to an odd painting of Bryce Hall and points to his “smelly balls.” Then, it cuts to him lying down in front of a portrait of Addison Rae, who “gave him fame.” Next, he dances, twerks, and struts, until the lyrics eventually say, “Up next is this boy named Noah, Mr. thick neck b**ch.” He also makes a gesture with his hands when Larray says Noah’s name, implying something about his ‘manhood.’ The video has been viewed more than five million times and has more than one million likes. However, while it seemed like he was having a bit of fun, it attracted some negative comments. “Why did you cut the part that says “Bigger Peter Ain’t Right Griffi?” Fear of success Griffi?” wrote one user. It’s a reference to the next two lines of lyrics, which also happen to throw him some shade. Griffin Johnson wasn’t having a bar of it. “No it’s [because] that’s where the sound cuts genius,” he replied. “Take that crown off, you don’t deserve it,” wrote another user, who was clearly less than impressed. “Shut up,” replied Griffin, keeping it short, sharp, and sweet. “This is so embarrassing, what are you wearing?” wrote one more. “TAKE COVER THE DUNKINS ARE BACK,” said Griffin, which some fans thought was hilarious. In the end, some found humor in the video, while others thought it was needless and immature. Either way, it’s clear that Griffin Johnson wasn’t holding back. He slipped on his gloves and dove head-first into the troll comments and even managed to come out on top. The key takeaway, however, is that it’s sparked a lot of discussion between fans, which was probably the point of the video in the first place.

  • Griffin Johnson is taking a break from dating after Dixie D’Amelio split – Dexerto

    Griffin Johnson is taking a break from dating after Dixie D’Amelio split YouTube: Griffin JohnsonTikTok star Griffin Johnson has revealed that he’s taking a hiatus from the dating world after his highly-publicized breakup with ex-girlfriend Dixie D’Amelio and subsequent romance rumors with Kelly Osbourne. Griffin Johnson is one of TikTok’s biggest personalities. A member of the Sway House, Johnson has amassed over 9 million followers on the viral video app, and became a social media superstar in his own right before linking up with Dixie D’Amelio. The two were quite an item prior to their breakup in August, which at first appeared as mere rumors and speculation from fans. However, Dixie quickly hinted that she had “48 screenshots” that proved Johnson had cheated on her, with other photos showing that he’d asked another girl for — wait for it — feet pics. Despite all the drama that ensued, which included a “joke” video from Johnson “apologizing” for the entire situation, it seems that all is now well between the two; but while Dixie has moved on, Griffin is taking some time away from the dating scene. In an interview with People Magazine’s Jodi Guglielmi, the TikToker revealed that he has no interest in jumping back into a relationship in wake of his drama with Dixie. “I’m taking a complete break,” he said. “I’m chilling. I haven’t even hardly talked to a girl or had a girl on a date or to hang out in at least a month or two. I’m completely out of that market at this moment. Everyone reacts to things and gets over things differently. For me, after that, I was crushed.” “It’s hard for me because I get it every single day, and some days it’s obviously worse,” he added, referencing the near-constant criticism he receives on social media due to the scandal’s aftermath. “My comment sections, interviews, paparazzi, when I’m walking out in public, it’s still, to this day. It’s been so many months.” View this post on Instagram Being an internet star might seem like a charmed life, but the incessant comments and speculation from users don’t make it an easy profession. Luckily, he is on good terms with Dixie’s current boo, Noah Beck, and is currently busy working his way through college classes, according to his Twitter feed.

  • Griffin Johnson hints that Sway House may be ending – Dexerto

    Griffin Johnson hints that Sway House may be ending YouTube: Griffin Johnson[jwplayer ksH6zuKH] TikTok star Griffin Johnson is part of the popular content collective Sway House, a group of male social media influencers that rivals the Hype House — but it could be facing a major reshuffling in the near future. The Sway House was created as a way to stick it to the Hype House, another group of popular TikTokers that once housed the most followed influencers on the viral video app. However, the Hype House quickly came under scrutiny after former member Daisy Keech accused fellow co-founder Thomas Petrou of making key business decisions without her knowledge or consent, and even filed a lawsuit against him. This news came in the wake of several key members taking their leave from the org, including the likes of Charli D’Amelio and Addison Rae. Now, the Hype House is a shadow of its former self — and the Sway House could be following suit. https://www.instagram.com/p/CC36Zg-Dx7u/?utm_source=ig_web_copy_link Celebrity news outlet the Hollywood Fix caught up to Sway House member Griffin Johnson during a night out on the town, who dropped a few key hints that could point to its dissolvement very soon. According to Johnson, the Sway House influencers are no longer living in the same home together and seem to be on different paths in regards to their own careers as entertainers. “For now, we all have different goals and we’re all doing our own thing, you know?” Johnson said of the situation. (Topic begins at 1:55) That’s not all; other sources claim that neighbors near the Sway House are sleeping better at night, further hinting that the TikTokers have moved out and on from the famous content powerhouse. While Griffin didn’t elaborate any further on the House’s current affairs, this news isn’t particularly surprising; the Los Angeles city mayor punished the group for throwing massive parties in violation of city ordinance by shutting off the home’s power and water in response to neighbors’ complaints. With members Bryce Hall and Blake Gray facing potential jail time for orchestrating the parties, it isn’t too out of left field to think that the group is taking a major step back in response to the drama.

On Monday, October 19, popular creator Alyssa Mckay posted a “rich girl rap” referencing Dixie and Griffin’s dramatic breakup, painting Griffin in a pretty bad light. Griffin Johnson and Dixie D’Amelio dated earlier this year, but the relationship came under scrutiny in early July, after TikToker Chase Hudson accused Johnson of cheating on Dixie with two other women. Later on, Dixie revealed she had an alleged “48 screenshots” of proof that Griffin had cheated which Alyssa refers to in her TikTok. Afterward, Griffin faced backlash for his behavior online including a ‘fake’ apology he posted to YouTube. Griffin still can’t get a break. Alyssa’s TikTok, which has already amassed nearly 2 million views, is a part of a POV series where she pretends to be a “rich girl” who is ironically sad about her life. Her character raps about her TikTok famous boyfriend, and having “caught him in the act.” She continues, “It wasn’t really hard to connect the dots, especially since I had a gallery of screenshots.” “Don’t worry I won’t release that, except you decided to write a diss track. You know I’m doing better now because you’re still watching and I’m finally with someone who doesn’t treat me like an option.” Sarcastically adding “I’m sorry, did I ruin your career?” Alyssa has 4.3 million TikTok followers and has grown on the platform after posting short raps calling out LA influencers for their behavior.

  • Griffin Johnson finally apologizes for Dixie D’Amelio cheating scandal – Dexerto

    Griffin Johnson finally apologizes for Dixie D’Amelio cheating scandal YouTube: Griffin JohnsonAfter weeks of avoiding the issue, famous TikTok personality Griffin Johnson has finally spoken up about his scandalous breakup with Dixie D’Amelio, apologizing to his fans and his former partner all at once. Many accusations were thrown around at the beginning of July. Fresh into their relationship, Johnson and D’Amelio were allegedly on a bumpy path. TikTok fans quickly connected dots with other social media celebrities and highlighted Johnson’s infidelity. While D’Amelio deflected these accusations at first, confirmation soon came to light. The 19-year-old was spotted liking very specific tweets and even reaching out to other girls that Johnson had made contact with. After coming under fire for a fake apology video, Johnson has now addressed the controversy in a new statement. A September 1 tweet reflected on the past few months of drama and served as an apology to fans and to D’Amelio. Seemingly having come to an end in late July, Johnson’s response came weeks after the controversy boiled over. “People have been asking me for a long time to make an apology,” he admitted. His apology came so long after the fact as he attempted to “limit press & attention outside the TikTok community.” “Sadly, it’s been over a month now and if anything, it has gotten worse so I want to end this.” Johnson explained how he has been “taking heat” for the drama but that the relationship was “far from perfect on both sides.” “I am sorry to everyone that followed me before, I’m not always proud of my decisions,” he added. “Most importantly, I want to publicly apologize to Dixie for the hurt that I have caused. I am human, I am not proud of some of my choices.” His fake apology video didn’t go over well within the TikTok community. However, Johnson owned up to that side of the drama as well. “I have dealt with a lot of this in an immature manner because honestly, I had no idea what to do.” here’s some of my thoughts/words put into a short summary. pic.twitter.com/8eiYIZRtUm — Griffin Johnson (@lmgriffjohnson) September 1, 2020 He asks that his millions of followers across social media “respect Dixie and her decisions moving forward.” Based on an earlier tweet from D’Amelio, it appears she wishes her audience would do the same as well. Amidst the dating drama, it appears as though more major shakeups are on the way for Johnson and his TikTok career. The mega-popular Sway House could soon be coming to an end if recent statements hold true.

Like many popular TikTokers, he generally posts lip-sync and dance content, as well as the occasional bit of comedy. Griffin hangs out with some of the other hugely popular TikTokers such as Sway House’s Bryce Hall and Noah Beck, and it’s not uncommon to see those stars along with many others share clips of them working out in vlogs, and social media posts. While it seemed like Griffin has always been a part of the gym lifestyle alongside Bryce and the others, fans were shocked when they compared images of the star’s body from just a few months ago to his body now, seeing a total transformation in that time. The TikToker described the transformation as being from “the beginning of summer till now,” though in another reply clarifies that it was actually from the end of summer that he began the grind, a fairly short amount of time for the progress he was able to make. actually, not even beginning of summer.. the end holy shat — Griffin Johnson (@lmgriffjohnson) January 9, 2021 In the before picture he appeared relatively small in frame compared to the more recent picture, which shows his broader shoulders and more defined muscles.

[jwplayer ZXB9LNVP] Following many accusations early into the pair’s relationship, Dixie had initially deflected from the idea of Griffin cheating on her but has since spoken out about the scandal. After weeks of avoiding the accusations and even coming under fire for a fake apology video, Griffin Johnson finally issued a proper apology, on September 1, taking the blame for the pair’s split earlier in the year. While rumors were continuing to spread about why they broke up, the TikTok star has now also addressed the cheating accusations. During Bryce Hall’s latest YouTube vlog on September 12, Sway House members grouped up to pull some stunts with fellow content creator Tanner Fox. However, before they set off, Hall began to joke about Griffin Johnson being single and asked him directly whether or not he cheated on Dixie. When discussing what to title the vlog, Hall suggested that “Did Griffin Johnson actually cheat?” would likely draw in a lot of viewers. Topic starts at 2:45 However, the conversation quickly took a more serious route, with Griffin denying the rumors and claiming to see the record straight. “Why are you guys doing this to me? No,” Griffin responded, in denial of the rumors.

  • Griffin Johnson explains “weird” relationship with Noah Beck after Dixie – Dexerto

    Griffin Johnson explains “weird” relationship with Noah Beck after Dixie Instagram: imgriffinjohnson / TikTok: noahbeckTikTok star Griffin Johnson has revealed that although he remains friends with Noah Beck, ex-girlfriend Dixie D’Amelio’s new partner, he feels as though there is still a “weird” dynamic between them. Sway House’s Griffin Johnson and TikTok sensation Dixie D’Amelio appeared to be the perfect pairing before they split back in August, implied to be as a result of cheating allegations. The drama has continued since then, with Dixie hitting out at her ex-boyfriend’s diss track over lyrics like “you’re the one that didn’t want me,” and “you aired our dirty laundry out for everyone to see.” But Dixie moved on from her old relationship well and truly when she confirmed her relationship with fellow TikTok star Noah Beck in the latter half of this year, leaving the internet swooning over their adorable relationship. However, things are made a little awkward by the fact that not only is Noah a TikTok star, but he is also part of the Sway House alongside Griffin. The dynamic is certainly a bizarre one, and in an interview with People Magazine’s Jodi Guglielmi, Griffin opened up on what the relationship between the two stars is like now after all this drama. Read More: Who is Jake Paul fighting next? – “I love Noah and I don’t really care about the past. I still consider him one of my friends, but it definitely puts a weird thing between us in a way,” he said. While it’s clear that the pair have no intention to create drama between each other for no reason, it certainly seems to be the case that it’s impossible to truly forget everything that’s happened, particularly as it’s all still relatively recent. Griffin went on to say that “I wish it could just be over and I could carry on normally and not have to worry about that.” It’s apparent that Griffin just wants to put everything in the past so he can restore the dynamic of his friendships back to where they were originally. In the same interview, he revealed that he has not been dating anyone and is staying completely off the market. Many fans will be glad to hear that despite some potential awkwardness, Griffin and Noah’s friendship is still very much intact, and they may hope that as time goes on things will start to go back to normal.

But while feuds and dramas aren’t all sunshine and rainbows, Griffin Johnson explained that it’s an inevitable part of the game. He also said that if you play your cards right, it can be beneficial. In an interview with Newsweek, Griffin was asked about drama between TikTok influencers. He confessed that he doesn’t avoid TikTok drama. Instead, he embraces it because it helps him and other influencers stay relevant, which is all a part of the business. “I actually don’t avoid the drama,” he said. “I used to try, but it just got to a point when I got to a certain amount of followers that it was just inevitable. Everything you do is tracked so closely, and not only that, but people feed on the drama.” “So if you don’t stay in it a little bit, then you don’t keep your name relevant,” he added. “It keeps your name up on the top of the charts and in people’s mouths, and that keeps them thinking about you. So now I just make jokes out of it. Like, I don’t care at all. I used to care, and it used to bother me, but now it’s just like, whatever, another day.” It’s no surprise that making headlines is good business for influencers, regardless of whether it’s good or bad. Of course, serious issues and allegations will paint them in a bad light. However, a harmless feud helps keep both parties relevant, which is mutually beneficial.

  • Griffin Johnson confirms his Spotify was hacked after ‘DIXIE’ song appeared – Dexerto

    Griffin Johnson confirms his Spotify was hacked after ‘DIXIE’ song appeared Instagram: dixiedamelio / imgriffinjohnsonFans of TikTok star Griffin Johnson were left baffled after a song appeared on his Spotify account called ‘DIXIE,’ though he revealed later that his account had actually been hacked. Griffin Johnson is a popular social media star who found popularity via TikTok, with his account now sitting at over 10 million followers. Earlier this year, Griffin and fellow TikTok star Dixie D’Amelio ended things with each other, and she has since moved into a new relationship with Noah Beck. However the transition was not totally smooth, Griffin calling his ex out in the form of a diss track, much to Dixie’s frustration. So it wasn’t all too out of the ordinary when a new release popped up on the star’s Spotify account entitled simply ‘DIXIE’ in all caps. However, upon giving the track a listen, fans quickly realised that it likely wasn’t Griffin behind the strange tune. griff is your Spotify hacked?? pic.twitter.com/1KeI6AzR56 — chloe🦋⁹⁸⁸| jads and griffin are superior (@chloexhossler) December 26, 2020 The star took to Twitter on December 26 to clear up any misunderstandings. “My Spotify is hacked btw,” he said. “I don’t even have premium so enjoy my account lol.” I don’t even have premium so enjoy my account lol — Griffin Johnson (@lmgriffjohnson) December 26, 2020 He also made sure to clear the air with Dixie, the subject of the song’s title, tagging her in his tweet and saying, “no worries Dixie I learned the first time,” followed by some lighthearted emojis. This is by no means the first time that a TikTok star has found themselves subject to a hack, with Charli D’Amelio having her Spotify and VSCO accounts compromised in the past, and just recently with Dixie’s TikTok account being temporarily deleted after a hack. Fans made sure to send support Griffin’s way online after the incident, one fan saying expressing their frustration that the star “suddenly [got] hacked and hated on for something he didn’t even do,” to which Griffin replied, “it runs in my DNA.” At the time of writing the song remains live on Griffin’s Spotify, though it is hoped that he will be able to recover his account soon to remove the unexpected new release.
