Why did Ethan Klein offer to buy Creator Clash?
In the aftermath of Creator Clash 3's cancellation, the once-celebrated influencer boxing event now hangs in the balance. Yet where some see failure, others sniff opportunity, and now, two of the Internet's most controversial personalities vie for ownership of what remains of the brand.
On July 20, 2025, Drama Alert host Daniel "Keemstar" posted an "open letter" on X, publicly expressing an interest in buying the intellectual property rights to Creator Clash. "As a long-time fan & viewer," wrote Keemstar, "this is a serious inquiry. Owners, please reach out to me for talks."
While some brushed it off as a bit of performance theatre, Keem maintained the offer was serious, dismissing any joke despite his reputation.

Ethan Klein
: With a Side of Sarcasm?
Soon after Keemstar's comment, Ethan Klein came into the picture and gave his shot of sarcasm and unpredictability. In a post to his community, Klein wrote:
'I WILL BUY CREATOR CLASH - OWNERS REACH OUT! Shall I buy Ian's house, too?"
The "Ian" he mentioned is Ian "iDubbbz" Kane Jomha, the original founder of Creator Clash and a name which has recently become closely associated with the event's collapse. On the other hand, although with great humor, one could hardly just disregard the comment given Klein's large platform and connection with previous internet drama.

It's unclear if Klein intends to actually pull the big buy-off or whether he's simply mocking his long-time nemesis Keemstar,or even iDubbbz himself. In this unpredictable culture of influencers, at times, healing comes from the pain of the jest, and sometimes the beauty of an awkward smile is that it is genuine.
What Happened to the Creator Clash?
The influencer boxing event, once widely respected as the perfect amalgamation of entertainment and charity, took quite a hit as Creator Clash 3 was officially cancelled on July 7th, 2025. The organizers called it a "hard decision," citing behind-the-scenes complications. Refunds were issued automatically to all pay-per-view buyers with the fans speculating about
The process was the nadir of all those ambitious, community-oriented attempts to get benefit-based content creators into the ring.
Future Prospects: A Real Bidding or More Drama?
Whatever the consideration, it is to be kept under consideration whether they actually want to take Creator Clash into their hands or are only trying to be provocative figures in the sprawling online gossip movement about Creative Clash.
Ethan Reacts To Creator Clash Being Cancelled Officially
Whatever the situation, these developments have once again made public interest bloom around the near future of influencer boxing. The event is currently in limbo, but with bigger names being attached to the IP, a comeback may well be in store for this, albeit in a greatly altered form.

Friendship breakdown raises fears of a lyrical takedown According to Rob Shuter's #ShuterScoop, tension reportedly began when Swift became involved in Lively's legal battle with It Ends with Us co-star Justin Baldoni. 'Taylor's been distancing herself since the legal stuff started blowing up,' a source claimed, adding that Lively now worries she'll be 'the subject of a song… and not the flattering kind.' The insider went further, saying the Gossip Girl alum 'went from being Taylor's inner-circle icon to a ghosted contact.' They warned that 'with Taylor, when you're out… you're a verse away from being dragged.' Another mutual friend suggested Lively's already dreading the lyrical fallout: 'Blake's smart enough to know the lyrics before they drop. And she's scared they'll rhyme with 'betrayal.''

Ashish Vidyarthi isn't just one of the most celebrated actors of our times. He wears many other hats, too. He is a vlogger, a motivational speaker, and a traveller. But why is he seen so less in films these days? The veteran actor answered the question in his latest vlog on his own YouTube channel, proclaiming that he wants to do 'central roles'. (Also read: Ashish Vidyarthi talks about Bollywood boycott calls, says 'such hatred is worthless': Agar aap khud se naraaz hai...) Ashish Vidyarthi has acted in over 240 films in 11 languages over 30 years. What Ashish said Facing the camera in his new vlog, Ashish said, "Today, let's talk openly. Let's make a few things clear. All of you (audience) are completely right. These days I am not seen in as many films as I was a part of back in the day. I don't know if the nation wants to know, but some of you definitely want to know. I am admitting this myself: Main ek behtereen actor hoon (I am a great actor). Someone who has done incredible roles throughout his career. But now I am looking for the kind of roles that haven't been offered to me yet: amazing central roles.' 'I won't hold bitterness in my life' He continued, 'I talk with directors, producers and casting directors, and I say to them, 'Ab tak nahi mila hai iska matlab yeh nahi ki ab nahi de sakte aap mujhe yeh role (Just because I haven't got them yet doesn't mean that you can't give me those roles now).' I am grateful for the fact that throughout my 30-year career, I have done 300 films in 11 different languages. But now I have decided that I want to do some good central roles. Sometimes we isolate ourselves from the world. We sit alone in our homes, but I am not going to sit around feeling depressed. I won't hold bitterness in my life.' Ashish then went on to add that in this period of waiting, he has taken up time to pursue other paths like motivational speaking, wrote a comedy sketch, named 'Sit Down Ashish', as well as a vlogger and traveller. Ashish has featured in many films in the last few decades and also won a National Film Award. He has been part of Drohkaal, 1942: A Love Story, Oh Darling Yeh Hai India, Baazi, Mrityudaata, Ziddi, Major Saab, Soldier, Haseena Maan Jaayegi, Arjun Pandit, and Vaastav. Most recently, Ashish was seen in the first season of reality show The Traitors, which was hosted by Karan Johar. He was eliminated in the circle of shaq.
