When the tone of the messages went ahead to become more and more disturbing, Bailey took the step of securing a restraining order against her ex.
As of 2024, Halle Bailey's net worth is estimated at a whopping $3 million, according to a Marca report. This stems from her steady rise in income from her multiple talents, including both film and music. When her music career first kicked off, she gradually proceeded towards acting. Her role as Sky on the hit show Grown-ish helped increase her screen presence, after which she saw a major rise in her earnings.
YouTuber DDG's net worth was earlier rumored to be $8 million, but Bailey's ex later responded about this on a '360 With Speedy' show. DDG joked that the claim that his net worth was $8 million was 'way off', and that it could be much more than that. However, it could not be completely ascertained if he was actually serious.
However, during the show, he also revealed that his biggest monthly checks for YouTube content typically used to be $300,000 or $400,000.

Apoorva Mukhija's Ex-BF Says She Cheated On Him, Lied On Social Media: 'Kehti Sab Dhanda Hai'
Last Updated: Apoorva Mukhija is yet to react to her ex-boyfriend's shocking allegations. Apoorva Mukhija has grabbed everyone's attention again. After recovering from India's Got Latent Row, making her Bollywood debut in Nadaaniyan and winning hearts with The Traitors, the YouTube star has found herself embroiled in controversy again after her ex-boyfriend, Utsav Dahiya, accused her of cheating on him. Utsav took to Instagram to share a song he wrote to address the speculations surrounding their relationship. In the song, Utsav accused Apoorva of cheating on him, and then wanting to get back together for content. He took a jibe at the YouTube star and claimed that she only called him 'ghatiya" for more social media engagement and followers. Have a look at his Instagram post here: He wrote in the caption, 'Ab agar koi aur bakwaas kari toh main seedha receipts nikalunga. Never try to gain sympathy by fabricating lies or pushing false narratives just to make content and assassinate someone's character online. Having a big following doesn't give you the right to bully your way by rage-baiting your audience and unleashing them on others." He added, 'When I was being falsely painted as a cheat and an abuser because of things you said, I reached out to you and your agency, hoping to find a way to deal with the hate. Instead, I was told, 'You're a nobody, you should be happy you got to date her." So here's a message from that 'nobody': you tried your level best (and I won't lie, it wasn't easy), but I'm still here, still standing. That should tell you something: your big numbers only matter on an app. There's a real and much bigger world outside – beyond lies and kalesh." 'Truth doesn't need 'followers', it stands on its own. Toh tum chalao apna ghar kalesh se, but kisi ke baare mein jhoot bolna band karo. Baki logo ko life mein dhanke kaam karne do. Grow up, kid," he concluded. The video has gone viral on social media like wildfire. Meanwhile, Apoorva is yet to respond to Utsav's claims. Apoorva and Utsav announced their breakup on January 31 this year. Since then, Apoorva has spoken about a certain toxic ex-boyfriend who abused her and cheated on her. She even called him 'ghatiya" in several videos. While Apoorva didn't name Utsav, her jabs hinted at her recent ex, who then received hate online. Similarly, Utsav hasn't mentioned Apoorva's name, but his video is a clear indication of who the song was written for. First Published: Disclaimer: Comments reflect users' views, not News18's.

MrBeast locks a cop and a criminal in prison for 100 days. Winner gets Rs 4.37 crore. Viral video grabs internet's attention
How did the internet react? MrBeast has once again pushed the boundaries of YouTube challenges, and this time, he's taking things behind bars. In his latest video, Jimmy Donaldson built a maximum-security prison and locked a cop and a former criminal inside for 100 days. The catch? If either one quits before the time is up, they both walk away with nothing. But if they last, the duo walks out with a staggering Rs 4.37 crore. The internet can't stop talking about participants are as interesting as the challenge itself. Lenny, a police officer with 17 years of service, finds himself on the other side of the cell for the very first time. Sharing the space with him is Ian Bick, once convicted of fraud and money laundering, who has since turned his life around as a podcaster. Ian explained that his troubles began when he started lying, borrowing money from one person to repay another, and eventually losing everyone's money. The bigger issue was that he hid the losses, which left him with a $500,000 debt — the exact sum now at stake in the make the prison feel as authentic as possible, MrBeast designed it with strict routines. Inmates get three meals a day, lights out at night, and a wake-up call every morning. While Ian adjusted quickly, Lenny struggled with the reversal of roles. 'I've locked people up my whole life, so it's weird to be on the other end of it. Them telling me what time I gotta go to sleep, what time I'm gonna be waking up, and what time I'm going to be eating. Like, that's a wild, crazy adjustment for me,' he experiment is being seen as more than just a test of survival—it's about patience, trust, and the bonds people can form in the most unlikely places. Viewers pointed out how Ian earned respect for owning up to his past and even gained a lifelong friend through the challenge. Others praised MrBeast for creating content that blends entertainment with meaningful lessons, calling the video both wild and insane while also noting its themes of patience, care, and unselfishness.
