Allday vs ALLDAY PROJECT? Aussie rapper threatens 'major legal battle' against K-pop's new co-ed group; receives hate
Co-ed K-pop group ALLDAY PROJECT is once again embroiled in controversy—this time, just days after their official debut on June 23, 2025. The group is drawing attention due to a potential legal battle with Australian rapper Allday, who claims ownership of the trademark for the name.
The situation erupted after Allday shared a screenshot of an article featuring ALLDAY PROJECT on his Instagram. In the caption, he expressed clear frustration over the group's use of a name similar to his and announced his intent to take legal action.
ALLDAY PROJECT The Debut Single 'FAMOUS'OUT NOW!🔗 https://t.co/9yJClTFiKA2025.06.23 6PM (KST)#ALLDAYPROJECT #ADP #올데이프로젝트#FAMOUS #WICKED#THEBLACKLABEL #더블랙레이블 pic.twitter.com/2AuQvug8Ap
What did Allday say?
He also posted the update on Facebook, writing: "People keep asking me about this… I have a trademark on the name Allday. Maybe I don't have 20 billion streams like that K-pop shit—which mostly sucks, by the way. But I do exist and own the trademark to my name. Prepare for the greatest legal battle of all time."
Fans react to legal threats
His remarks quickly ignited discussion online. K-pop fans had varied reactions - some dismissed the post as petty or bitter, especially due to the tone and generalization of K-pop music. Others argued that, despite his delivery, the rapper may have valid legal concerns depending on trademark laws and market overlap.
Meanwhile, some fans pointed out the powerful backing behind ALLDAY PROJECT, including the involvement of the Shinsegae heiress, suggesting that the legal challenge may not go far. Memes and sarcastic comments also flooded social media, with fans daring him to "try his luck."
One fan remarked, "Yeah go against one of the heir of Samsung and a sub label from one of the biggest money maker ever yeah... try it."
Another chimed in, "They aren't called 'all day' they're called all day project…"
Someone else wrote, "Sounds kinda but hurt, but whatever. If he has the trademark then the judges have to decide if ALLDAY PROJECT is different enough of a name. Making such a grand announcement is cringe to me."
Yet another added, "I would've cared more if he didn't talk like a frustrated 13 yo."
Allday receives hate
While K-pop fans had numerous opinions, it seems some went to the rapper's Instagram to spread hate comments. The Aussie shared a screenshot on his Insta story and wrote, "Getting so much hate for this...I didn't realise how many people grew with lead in their drinking water."
A new challenge for a rookie group
ALLDAY PROJECT has been dealing with its fair share of controversies, and this latest issue only adds fuel to the fire. While it's uncertain whether legal action will actually materialize, the rapper's comments have stirred international interest and reignited conversation around the group's turbulent debut.
Despite the noise, fans remain eager to see how ALLDAY PROJECT navigates its early days - and whether this name dispute will escalate or quietly fade away.

Shefali Jariwala Battled Epilepsy For 15 Years: 'I Couldn't Take Up Much Work After Kaanta Laga'
Last Updated: In a resurfaced interview, Shefali Jariwala revealed she battled epilepsy for 15 years, which kept her away from more film work post Kaanta Laga. Actress and model Shefali Jariwala's untimely demise at the age of 42 has left the entertainment industry in deep shock. Amid the heartbreaking news, a throwback interview of the Kaanta Laga star has resurfaced, where she opened up about her health struggles and why she stepped back from her career. In an interview with The Times of India, Shefali Jariwala revealed she had been suffering from epilepsy since the age of 15. 'I had an epilepsy seizure at the age of 15. I remember at that time I was under tremendous pressure to do well in my studies. Stress and anxiety can lead to seizures. It's interrelated, you could get a seizure due to depression and vice versa," she shared. The actress candidly described how the condition affected her confidence and ability to work. 'I have got seizures in classrooms, backstage, while on roads, and somewhere that lowered my self-esteem," she said. Talking about the impact of epilepsy on her career after Kaanta Laga, Shefali added, 'After I did Kaanta Laga, people asked me why I didn't do more work. I can now say that it was because of the epilepsy seizures that I couldn't take up much work. I didn't know when I would get my next seizure… this went on for 15 years." View this post on Instagram A post shared by Shefali Jariwala 🧿 (@shefalijariwala) In the same interview, Shefali proudly shared that she had been seizure-free for nine years, crediting her recovery to holistic care and emotional support.

Shefali Jariwala passed away on Thursday, reportedly due to a cardiac arrest. She was brought to Bellevue Multispecialty Hospital by her husband Parag Tyagi and others, where she was declared dead on arrival. Her body was then shifted to Cooper Hospital for a post-mortem. The family has not yet released an official statement. Fans and celebrities continue to express their sorrow and disbelief online. First Published: June 28, 2025, 04:37 IST

Jeff Bezos And Lauren Sanchez Are Now Married. See First Pic Of Newlyweds
Venice: Amazon tycoon Jeff Bezos and Lauren Sanchez tied the knot Friday at a sumptuous ceremony with the rich and famous on an island in Venice's lagoon, out of the sight and sound of protesters. "This city seems impossible! It can't exist and yet, here it is!" an enchanted Bezos told a La Repubblica journalist Thursday who got close to the magnate as he whizzed around the canals by boat. But protesters had a different view, wondering how long Venice can endure: While the billionaires party, activists say the fragile city is sinking, overrun by tourists, and a victim of depopulation as locals unable to pay soaring rents are forced out. "No Kings, No Bezos" read a sign in green neon projected on the St Mark's Campanile tower on Thursday night. - Serenaded - Sanchez late Friday posted a photo on Instagram -- under a new name, laurensanchezbezos -- showing her in a long flowing white dress and him in black tie, though it did not provide any indication where it was taken. View this post on Instagram A post shared by Lauren Sánchez Bezos (@laurensanchezbezos) Bezos and Sanchez, a former news anchor and entertainment reporter, celebrated their nuptials with guests including Kim and Khloe Kardashian, Oprah Winfrey and Orlando Bloom. The tech magnate, 61, and Sanchez, 55, are staying at the Aman hotel, a luxury 16th-century palazzo on the Grand Canal with a view of the Rialto bridge. Other A-list guests are staying at the Gritti Palace and the St. Regis. The couple exchanged vows at a black-tie ceremony on the island of San Giorgio Maggiore Friday afternoon, according to Italian media reports. The wedding is thought to have taken place in a vast open-air amphitheatre on the island, which sits across from Venice's iconic St Mark's Square. The newlyweds were to be serenaded by Matteo Bocelli, son of the famed opera singer Andrea Bocelli, reports said. Michelin-starred chef Fabrizio Mellino prepared the wedding dinner, while the cake has been made by French pastry chef Cedric Grolet, the Corriere della Sera said. Sanchez is alleged to have prepared 27 outfits to wear during the festivities. - 'Enchanted' - Wedding guests snapped by paparazzi as they hopped into boats included Jordan's Queen Rania, French luxury goods executive Francois-Henri Pinault, American football player Tom Brady, US fashion designer Spencer Antle, the singer Usher, and Ivanka Trump, daughter of US President Donald Trump, and her husband Jared Kushner. The guests reportedly lunched Thursday in the gardens of Villa Baslini, on the islet of San Giovanni Evangelista. The celebrations are set to end Saturday with a party likely at the Arsenale, a vast shipyard complex dating back to when the city was a naval powerhouse. Bezos and Sanchez are donating three million euros ($3.5 million) to the city, according to Veneto's regional president Luca Zaia, and are employing historic Venetian artisans. Venice's oldest pastry maker Rosa Salva is baking 19th-century "fishermen's biscuits" for party bags that will also contain something by Laguna B, renowned for its handblown Murano glass. Trump and her family visited a glass-blowing workshop on the small island of Murano on Wednesday, according to the owner. "They were amazed and enchanted by the magic of glass," Massimiliano Schiavon told the Corriere della Sera, adding that the family had a go at blowing glass. Venice, home to the oldest film festival in the world, is used to VIPs whizzing around in speed boats, and happily hosted the star-studded nuptials of Hollywood actor George Clooney in 2014. Some say this wedding too brings good business. Italy's tourism ministry said Friday it expected the wedding to bring the city nearly one billion euros, with about 895 million of that estimated to come from the "media visibility" generated. But critics say Bezos, one of the world's richest men and founder of a company regularly scrutinised for how it treats its workers, is different. "Tax Billionaires", read protest signs along canals. "In the time it takes you to read this, Jeff Bezos's wealth has increased by more than your monthly salary", they read in English and Italian. Environmental activists have also pointed to the carbon footprint of the mega yachts and dozens of private jets -- at least 95 -- bringing the rich and famous to the city. But Samuel Silvestri, a 55-year-old salesman, welcomed the extravaganza. "Over-tourism is caused by those people who come with a backpack and their own food, and contribute very little," he said, "not those who transform Venice into a mini-Monte Carlo. This marriage helps the image of the city." Italy's health ministry has issued a red heat alert for Venice for the weekend, part of a heatwave affecting much of southern Europe.
