So\u2026 what\u2019s brewing? Addison Rae goes viral for \u201cawkward\u201d BBMAs presentation Who\u2019s involved? Addison Rae is one of TikTok\u2019s most popular (and highest-earning) content creators, who has taken to hanging out with the likes of Kourtney Kardashian after launching her very own makeup line. What\u2019s the tea? Considering her celebrity status, it comes as little surprise that Rae was conscripted to help host the 2020 Billboard Music Awards \u2014 but some critics didn\u2019t find her performance to be up to snuff. During her presentation for Harry Styles\u2019 Billboard Chart Achievement Award, Rae didn\u2019t open up her envelope, which is the general tradition for those presenting such awards. This moment soon went viral, with many dubbing her presentation \u201cawkward\u201d and wondering why a TikToker was at such a prestigious event in the first place. She looks like she is in a funeral lmfaooooo. Also the way in how she announced that Harry won is so cringy like girl put some emotion in it cuz its Harry freaking Styles who u talking abt not a tiktok dancer \ud83d\ude44\u2014 Kay (@kaysedits_1) October 15, 2020 How did she respond? It doesn\u2019t look like Rae is letting the haters get her down, though, as the star later posted a series of bombshell Instagram photos with the caption: \u201cAfter last night\u2019s show, I finally learned how to open an envelope! Thank you @BBMAs > https:\/\/www.instagram.com\/p\/CGYe8_Wh-2r\/?utm_source=ig_web_copy_link What do you think of her response to the criticism? Do you think social media influencers should host major award shows? Pokimane hits out at \u201ccreepy\u201d Twitch viewers Who\u2019s involved? Imane \u2018Pokimane\u2019 Anys is one of the most popular streamers on Twitch, also hailed for her involvement in the broadcasting group \u2018OfflineTV.\u2019 What\u2019s the tea? As one of Twitch\u2019s most well-known female broadcasters, it stand to reason that she isn\u2019t new to having the occasional creep in her chat from time to time \u2014 but it seems that she\u2019s had enough with users who take \u201ccreep clips\u201d from her stream. \u201cCreep clips\u201d are, in essence, short clips taken from women\u2019s broadcasts that paint an otherwise innocent moment in a sexual light, such as when someone clips a streamer turning away from the camera or bending over to pick something up. What did Pokimane say? Both Pokimane and streamer QuarterJade hit out at these types of clips in a series of tweets, with QuarterJade very pointedly telling such users: \u201cF**K YOU.\u201d if you are the type of loser that clips when i walk away from my cam, bend over, etc\u2026 FUCK YOUUUUUU i\u2019m so sick of you stupid perverts and i hope your penis gets stuck in a lawn mower \u2014 QuarterJade (@QuarterJade) October 15, 2020 This post appeared to spark some backlash, which prompted Pokimane to speak out on the matter: \u201cWhy do we, as female streamers, need to work around the creeps in our chat?\u201d she replied. \u201cEspecially in regular and far-from-sexual scenarios, like standing up from our chairs lol.\u201d why do we, as female streamers, need to work around the creeps in our chat? especially in regular and far from sexual scenarios, like standing up from our chairs lol.. \u2014 pokimane (@pokimanelol) October 15, 2020 What do you think about \u201ccreep clips?\u201d Do you think Twitch can do anything to stop disturbing viewers from creating these kinds of videos? Bella Poarch hits back at criticism for acting \u201ckawaii\u201d Who\u2019s involved? Bella Poarch is a TikToker who is quickly rising to internet fame, even rivaling the likes of Charli D\u2019Amelio after seeming to earn double the amount of views on her videos and breaking a TikTok record. What\u2019s the tea? Despite Poarch\u2019s popularity, many critics are taking an issue with how she presents herself in her videos, with quite a few commenters being concerned over her \u201cchildlike\u201d mannerisms. Poarch hit out at these comments in a pointed tweet, claiming that being \u201ckawaii\u201d is a common part of Asian culture that she, as a Flipino, wants to be part of. \u201cWhy is it not allowed to act cute?\u201d she wrote. \u201cIt\u2019s a natural thing to most Asians. But people seem to hate me for it. I\u2019m Filipino and in the Philippines, we love ulzzang and kawaii culture. I grew up with it, so why can\u2019t I just be myself?\u201d Why is it not allowed to act cute? It\u2019s a natural thing to most Asians. But people seem to hate me for it\ud83d\ude41 I\u2019m Filipino and in the Philippines, we love Ulzzang and kawaii culture. I grew up with it so why can\u2019t I just be myself? \u2014 Bella Poarch (@bellapoarch) October 12, 2020 What\u2019s the verdict? It looks like the internet isn\u2019t sympathizing with her reasoning, however, with some critics accusing her of \u201cfetishizing acting childlike.\u201d What\u2019s your take on the situation? Do you think Poarch is acting too \u201cchildlike\u201d for her age? Joe Rogan teases podcast episode with Kanye West Who\u2019s involved? Joe Rogan is a well-known figure in the online world, best known for his uber-popular podcast, \u2018The Joe Rogan Experience,\u2019 which features all manner of celebrity guests. What\u2019s the tea? Assuming that rapper Kanye West needs no introduction, it seems like Rogan could be featuring him on an upcoming episode, after being specifically asked by the music artist in a recent tweet. \u201cWould love to go on Joe Rogan\u2019s podcast LIVE this week,\u201d Yeezus tweeted. \u201cI have my team trying to get your number. Joe, I\u2019m in Calabasas. Let\u2019s do this, my friend.\u201d https:\/\/twitter.com\/kanyewest\/status\/1315680854555848705?s=20 Fans will know that Rogan has attempted to get Kanye on his podcast quite a few times in the past, so with Kanye himself expressing an open interest in appearing on the show, it seems like this idea could very likely become a reality in the near future. How do you think this potential episode could turn out? Think we\u2019ll get any updates on the Kim Kardashian situation? Dave Portnoy starts a war with TikTok Who\u2019s Involved? Barstool Sports president Dave Portnoy and TikToker Josh Richards have begun their very own podcast, \u2018BFFs\u2019 \u2014 but it seems its first episode has already sparked an all-out war in the TikTok realm. What\u2019s the tea? During the podcast\u2019s first episode, Portnoy appeared to call out Richards\u2019 ex-girlfriend, TikToker Nessa Barrett, who infamously went viral for dancing to the Koran being read aloud. Claiming that Nessa had been \u201cusing\u201d Richards, Portnoy\u2019s comments sparked the ire of Nessa\u2019s fans, who went to bat for the young singer in a passionate tirade of social media posts. Fucking Vinny where you at! I\u2019m getting killed out here! pic.twitter.com\/eLso2dUOhR \u2014 Dave Portnoy (@stoolpresidente) October 14, 2020 Needless to say, Portnoy didn\u2019t seem bothered by the heat, even tweeting out an edit of a comical fight scene with other influencers\u2019 faces placed over the characters\u2019. https:\/\/twitter.com\/stoolpresidente\/status\/1316193555736649728?s=20 While Barrett herself has yet to weigh in on the matter, her fans are doing the heavy lifting for her, just a week after she claimed she \u201cregretted\u201d her kiss with Chase Hudson. Her reason? She was still in love with Chase, who appears to have completely moved on from the drama. This week was chock-full of online drama. What is your take on the \u201cTikTok war\u201d between Dave Portnoy and a bunch of youngsters making dance videos? Do you think Addison Rae should have received all that backlash for her presentation at the BBMAs?
