'That sh*t was crazy': Adin Ross breaks silence on family backlash after supporting Palestine live on stream

(Image via @adinross/Instagram) Streaming star Adin Ross is back in the headlines, this time not for his wild Kick broadcasts or viral collabs, but for something far more personal. The 24-year-old creator has revealed that his family and inner circle are upset with him after he publicly voiced support for Palestine, leading to an online wave of debate, division, and yes, another Adin moment going viral. Adin Ross sparks conversation with keffiyeh and 'Free Palestine' message It all started during a recent livestream where Adin was casually unboxing fan mail from his P.O. box. Among the usual mix of memes and merch was something that immediately changed the tone: a keffiyeh and a Palestinian flag. Without hesitation, Adin wrapped the scarf around his neck and declared on-stream: 'Free Palestine. I stand with my people. Everyone in my chat, I stand with y'all.' The moment instantly became one of the most talked-about clips from the stream. Fans flooded the chat with praise, while some others were visibly stunned. But what really caught Adin off guard was the reaction outside the stream. 'Very mad at me right now': Adin opens up about the backlash On a follow-up stream just over a week later, Adin opened up about the aftermath, revealing that some of the strongest reactions weren't from strangers on the internet, but from people who've known him his whole life. 'You guys know… family, friends, very mad at me right now for the Palestinian scarf,' he said. 'They saw the clip of me holding it up. So mad at me. I'm not even joking, bro. That sh*t was crazy.' Adin, who is of Jewish background, admitted that the criticism stung. by Taboola by Taboola Sponsored Links Sponsored Links Promoted Links Promoted Links You May Like If the Cat Bites You, Here's What It Really Means. Weird Cat Behavior Explained Undo He didn't name anyone directly but made it clear that the reaction felt disproportionate. Not a one-time message While the keffiyeh moment might've made the most noise, it wasn't a standalone gesture. Over the past year, Adin has repeatedly expressed solidarity with Palestinian and Muslim communities. Earlier this summer, in a now-resurfaced stream with fellow creator N3on, Adin said: 'You all matter… Yes, I'm Jewish. I take accountability for them. It's f**ked up. I'm sorry.' He's also encouraged creators like Adam Saleh to represent Palestine on bigger stages, telling the YouTuber-boxer: 'I want you to walk out with a Palestinian flag. I want you to rep whatever you want.' Politics, identity, and platform pressure With 7+ million followers across platforms and a highly reactive fanbase, Adin Ross knows that his words carry weight. But the latest controversy shows that not all backlash comes from the public; sometimes, it starts at home. Still, Ross isn't backing down. While acknowledging the tension, he maintained his stance on peace and empathy. For now, Adin's scarf moment continues to ripple beyond his stream, a mix of support, criticism, and complicated conversations that go way beyond the screen.

A former Rolling Stone says the Met has his stolen guitar. The museum disputes it

LONDON — It's only rock 'n' roll, but it's messy. A former Rolling Stone says the Met has his stolen guitar. The museum disputes it A guitar once played by two members of the Rolling Stones is at the center of a dispute between the band's former guitarist Mick Taylor and the Metropolitan Museum of Art. The 1959 Gibson Les Paul was donated to the Met as part of what the New York museum calls 'a landmark gift of more than 500 of the finest guitars from the golden age of American guitar making.' The donor is Dirk Ziff, a billionaire investor and guitar collector. When the Met announced the gift in May, Taylor thought he recognized the guitar, with its distinctive 'starburst' finish, as an instrument he last saw in 1971, when the Stones were recording the album 'Exile on Main St.' at Keith Richards' rented villa in the south of France. In the haze of drugs and rock 'n' roll that pervaded the sessions, a number of instruments went missing, believed stolen. Now, Taylor and his team believe it has reappeared. The Met says provenance records show no evidence the guitar ever belonged to Taylor. 'This guitar has a long and well-documented history of ownership,' museum spokesperson Ann Ballis said. Taylor's partner and business manager, Marlies Damming, said the Met should make the guitar 'available for inspection.' 'An independent guitar expert should be able to ascertain the guitar's provenance one way or the other,' she said in a statement to The Associated Press. While its ownership is contested, there's no disputing the instrument's starring role in rock history. It was owned in the early 1960s by Keith Richards, who played it during the Rolling Stones' first appearance on 'The Ed Sullivan Show' in 1964. The Met says that performance 'ignited interest in this legendary model.' The guitar – nicknamed the 'Keithburst' – was also played by guitar legends Eric Clapton and Jimmy Page. Taylor says he got it from Richards in 1967, two years before he joined the Stones, replacing original member Brian Jones. Jones died in 1969. Taylor left the band in 1974, reuniting with them for the Stones' 50th anniversary tour in 2012-2013. Jeff Allen, who was Taylor's manager and publicist for decades from the 1990s, said Taylor 'told me he got it as a present from Keith,' and also mentioned the theft. 'Mick did tell me that the guitar solo that he became quite famous for, on 'Can't You Hear Me Knocking,' was with the Les Paul that got stolen,' Allen said. The Met's records say the Les Paul was owned by Richards until 1971, when it was acquired by record producer and manager Adrian Miller, who died in 2006. The guitar has changed hands several times since then, and reappeared twice in public. It was put up for auction by Christie's in 2004, when it failed to sell. Ziff bought it in 2016, and loaned it to the Met in 2019 for an exhibition titled 'Play it Loud: Instruments of Rock & Roll.' It's unclear what will happen next. The Met, which plans to open a new gallery dedicated to its collection of American guitars, says it has not been contacted by Taylor or his representatives.
