Kim Zolciak's daughter Ariana Biermann sentenced over 2022 DUI — days before Bravo show premiere
Kim Zolciak's daughter Ariana Biermann is the latest Bravo star to be sentenced for driving under the influence. In a hearing last Friday, the 23-year-old reality star took a plea deal to avoid jail time for her 2022 arrest, according to court docs obtained by In Touch. The outlet reports that she pleaded guilty to reckless driving and possession and use of drug-related objects. However, other charges, including a DUI, were dropped by prosecutors. Biermann will serve 24 months of probation, pay over $2,000 in fines and perform 40 hours of community service. Additionally, she also has to eliminate alcoholic beverages or drugs unless prescribed and complete an evaluation for substance abuse and take a Victim Impact program. The court warned Biermann that she could end up in jail if she violated any of her probation orders. 'Ms. Biermann maintained her innocence since her arrest. We are pleased that the State of Georgia eventually decided to dismiss the impaired driving charge and offer Ms. Biermann the opportunity to plead guilty to a traffic ticket,' her lawyer, Justin Spizman, told Page Six in a statement Thursday. 'Despite her desire to fight this case, she took advantage of the opportunity to put this matter behind her and focus her energy on all the positive endeavors in her life.' Page Six has also reached out to Biermann's rep for comment. In August 2022, Biermann, who was 20 at the time, was arrested on suspicion of drunk driving and charged with driving under the influence of alcohol, improper/erratic lane change and underage possession/purchase of alcohol. Her then-boyfriend, Hudson McLeroy, who was also 20 at the time, was arrested for an alleged DUI, along with allegedly furnishing alcohol to a minor and violating the conditions of his limited driving permit. Biermann denied the charges at the time and her lawyer said that she was 'involved in a minor fender bender. However, the police 'immediately initiated an investigation for DUI.' Biermann's sentencing comes days before her new show, 'Next Gen NYC,' is set to premiere on Bravo. The reality show follows a group of friends who were raised in the spotlight as they work their way through adulthood. 'Next Gen NYC' premieres June 3 at 9 p.m. ET/8 p.m. CT on Bravo.

YouTube's Victory in the TV Wars Depends on Parents
Here's a stat that might come as a shock to casual observers of the media ecosystem: The media company that commands the largest percentage of our eyeballs is not the mighty Netflix Inc., the Walt Disney Co. juggernaut or the omnipresent Inc. Prime. It's YouTube. The platform represents 12.4% of audiences' time spent watching television, according to Nielsen Holding Ltd.'s Media Distributor Gauge report for April. That beats Disney's 10.7% (which includes not only the platforms and channels that bear its name but ESPN and Hulu to boot), nearly doubles the 6.8% and 6.7% for Fox and Warner Bros. Discovery, respectively, and pummels the puny 3.5% share for Amazon. But before we hail the platform as another nail in traditional TV's coffin, it needs to accomplish something else: earn the trust of its users, particularly parents.
