Josh Richards under fire for making fun of Cooper Noriega on BBFs podcast YouTube: BFFs: Dave Portnoy, Josh Richards & Bri ChickenfryJosh Richards is coming under fire after Treva Noriega, the mother of late TikTok star Cooper Noriega, hit out at a clip of Richards poking fun at Cooper\u2019s crop top. Josh Richards is a prominent TikToker and co-host for the popular entertainment podcast \u2018BFFs,\u2019 alongside Barstool president Dave Portnoy and influencer Brianna Chickenfry. During a previous episode of the podcast, late TikToker Cooper Noriega appeared as a guest, in which he wore a cropped graphic tee that showed off his midriff. Noriega took a bit of ribbing from the BFFs hosts due to his attire, with Dave Portnoy notably saying, \u201cYou can\u2019t be a normal person and wear what he\u2019s wearing.\u201d Noriega put on an oversized hoodie following these comments, causing some fans to speculate that the late influencer felt \u201cbullied\u201d by the hosts\u2019 attitude toward his clothing. A clip from this segment of the podcast has gone viral online, set to sad music with a focus on Noriega\u2019s reaction to Richards and Portnoy\u2019s comments \u2014 but the TikToker\u2019s family isn\u2019t happy that the short video is making the rounds on social media. Cooper Noriega\u2019s mother lashes out at Josh Richards over crop top comments Cooper\u2019s mother, Treva Noreiga, spoke out against the clip in a comment on TikTok, where she also claimed that Richards should feel \u201cashamed\u201d for what he said about her son\u2019s clothing. \u201cI hate this is still being shown,\u201d Treva wrote. \u201cThis breaks me, and Josh should feel ashamed. Cooper loved him as a friend!\u201d While clips from this broadcast are still available on the BFFs YouTube channel, the full episode has since been removed. Comments on a segment from the podcast are in full support of Noriega, with users lashing out at Richards and Portnoy for how they treated the show\u2019s guest. \u201cJosh and Dave literally grilled this man, [this] was messed up,\u201d one commenter said. \u201cThey were so harsh and insensitive, and it really shows. The animosity Josh has built up inside is crazy. I hope everyone can forgive each other.\u201d \u201cThis is absolutely disgusting and so very disrespectful,\u201d another wrote. \u201cY\u2019all just made fun of him for being himself and being confident and comfortable in his body and clothing. Absolutely. Disgusting. Disrespectful. Fly high Cooper, we love you so much.\u201d Cooper Noriega passed away in June 2022 at the age of 19 due to \u201ccombined effects of alprazolam, fentanyl and lorazepam\u201d and \u201crecent clonazepam use,\u201d according to authorities. Fans continue to show their love and support to Noriega and his family in the months following his death.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
