Iconic Metal Singer, 60, Scolds Concert Goers in Frustrated Display
Zombie went on to release more successful music, and venture into filmmaking, directing House of 1,000 Corpses, and the two Halloween remakes. He has made himself a place in the horror genre, whether that's music or film. Zombie has always branded himself with his distinct voice, which has now been used in some other ways.
At a recent headlining appearance at the Boardwalk Rock festival, Zombie got pretty frustrated with his crowd. Watch this.
Zombie's frustration around the phones is made pretty clear in the video. His comments sparked a lot of discourse over the issue, with fans taking sides.
"I agree, put the phones away and enjoy the moment," one fan commented, while another took the opposite stance, remarking, "Ok, roll those ticket prices back too since we're being all nostalgic."The arguments on either side continued, one fan in favor saying, "Agreed. You can find the performance on YouTube in every which way. Take 1-2 pics. A quick video if you must and just enjoy the show." Another fan showed their displeasure with Zombie's comments, arguing, "Concerts are too expensive. Let the people do what they want. Just play the damn song."
People seem to have really strong opinions on either side of this issue. Regardless, Rob Zombie is still selling tickets, and giving it his all on stage.

The YouTube-ification of streaming? Why Netflix is making big deals with YouTubers
YouTube-ification? Is that a thing? It appears to be what's happening now with Netflix and other streaming services. Some of YouTube's hottest creators are landing lucrative deals to bring their shows to even wider audiences on streaming services where bigger production budgets mean they can take their content to the next level. Beloved children's educator and entertainer Ms. Rachel has done just that with her bubbly, toddler-friendly learning videos, which have amassed more than 11 billion views on her YouTube channel. The creator, whose real name is Rachel Accurso, partnered with Netflix earlier this year to license four existing episodes for the streamer while still continuing to upload monthly content for her 16 million YouTube subscribers. It's a similar story for the Sidemen, a collective of seven British YouTubers who carry out wild stunts and do sketch comedy. They inked a deal with Netflix last year that saw them take their second season over to that platform, after saying they had hit the ceiling with what they could do at YouTube. It may seem that Netflix and its fellow streaming giants are trying to scoop up talent from a platform that already made creators famous — and rich, thanks to ads, sponsorships and other revenues. But as Netflix and YouTube vie for the eyeballs on TV sets, Netflix (and other streamers) are increasingly using YouTube to test the waters for the kind of content viewers will flock to. Philip Mai, co-director of the Social Media Lab at Toronto Metropolitan University, says companies like Netflix are trying to "meet the viewers where they are" and attract them with content without the risk of investing in an original production that may flop. Clash of the video titans YouTube has more than 2.7 billion active monthly users worldwide logging on to its website and mobile app to watch everything from viral videos to news reports and series that are created by individual users and independent content production companies. Netflix, however, has dominated the subscription-based video streaming market for years and has been an industry leader in creating original series and movies — and it's continuing to grow. The company's chief financial officer, Spencer Neumann, said in March that the streamer is "not anywhere near a ceiling" when it comes to spending money on both licensed and original content. He estimated Netflix would spend $18 billion US on content this year alone, according to Variety. LISTEN | How Ms. Rachel translated kid-friendly content to success — and a Netflix deal: He recognized there's stiff competition when it comes to viewers who are increasingly watching YouTube on their television sets, not just on its website or mobile app. But Nemann said what set them apart, when it comes to content, is that Netflix shares "in the creative and economic risk with our creators," where as YouTube creators often start to build their content and audiences on their own. But that's exactly why Mai says YouTube has become a testing ground for the streaming companies. He says it allows them to watch what becomes popular and then approaching creators about the possibility of licensing their content or collaborating on a series. "It's a cheaper way of doing development, without having to pay for the pilot," he said. Called up to the big leagues That's what happened with The Amazing Digital Circus, an animated series created by independent Glitch Productions, based in Sydney, Australia. The series only has five 25-ish-minute episodes on YouTube, but those have racked up a combined 750 million views since premiering in October 2023. Kevin Lerdwichagul, Glitch's co-founder and CEO, said Netflix came knocking about six months after they dropped the pilot episode. He compares it to being like a comedian scouted by a network television show while performing at open mic night. "The new version of that is like going to YouTube and you're hoping someone like Netflix sees your product and then brings you along," he told CBC News. WATCH | Trailer for the hit YouTube series The Amazing Digital Circus: Lerdwichagul says the audience for the series is teens and young adults, which remains a strong demographic for YouTube — and why it has no plans to abandon the platform — but going to a streaming service as well allows people "outside of that demographic circle" to discover the show. "Our friends [and] parents started watching Digital Circus once and moved to Netflix," he said, adding that another Glitch series called Murder Drums has made its way to Amazon Prime. What we're watching on the TV YouTube is also adapting to make content more easily viewed on televisions — and in ways that also make it easier for content to be adapted for streamers — such as allowing creators to make episodic content and have seasons. That's because more and more people are watching YouTube, Netflix and other streaming services on their TVs. But YouTube is the juggernaut. In June of this year, YouTube accounted for 12.8 per cent of TV viewing, a number that has been rising consistently for the past year, according to ratings tracker Nielsen. As for the streamers, Netflix still has the most eyeballs on it, with 8.3 per cent, followed by Disney (encompassing Disney+, Hulu and ESPN+) with 4.8 per cent. As such, Andrew Peterson, who is YouTube's head of content partnerships in Canada, says it's not a surprise that streamers are keeping a close eye on YouTube content. "We really see YouTube as the foundational home for so much creativity, where creators can build that audience," he said. WATCH | Quebec pushing for streaming giants to add more French-language content: YouTube not a pipeline to steaming platforms What is different about YouTube, says Peterson, is that creators can grow their channels and brands without the backing of a production studio or steaming deal and still hit it big. Brandon Katz, director of insights and content strategy at U.S.-based Greenlight Analytics, says you only have to look to YouTube success story MrBeast as evidence. The channel, created by American YouTuber Jimmy Donaldson, is the most-subscribed on the platform with a whopping 418 million followers. Amazon Prime Video and production house Amazon MGM Studios scored a highly sought after deal with Donaldson in 2024, shelling out a reported $100 million US for him to create Beast Games, with players taking part in what has been dubbed the biggest reality competition series ever in pursuit of a $5-million US prize. The first season was produced in Toronto and it was renewed earlier this year for Season 2. But Katz says it's only the "cream of the crop" that will can "successfully transition to more traditional entertainment." "You have to have a huge footprint already," he said. "You have have to content that is tailored to a new platform." At the same time, he says, YouTube remains lucrative for the top content creators like MrBeast and Ms. Rachel who have become popular enough to expand their empires. "The longer they exist on YouTube, the greater their following grows," he said, explaining that means they continue to make more off ads and sponsorships. "There's no way massive top one per cent creators are going to want to sacrifice all that." WATCH | How MrBeast made it big on YouTube:

50 Cent Denies Assisting JAY-Z's Alleged Son With Paternity Case: 'Keep My Name Out Of This Sh*t'
One thing about 50 Cent, he proudly takes ownership for whatever vindictive moves he makes as Hip-Hop's biggest villain. Thus, it came as no surprise that the 50-year-old rapper recently denied assisting Rymir Satterthwaite, Jay-Z's alleged son, with his decades-long paternity case. A YouTube account that brands itself as revealing, 'the truth behind celebrity drama, family secrets, and industry moves you were never meant to see' claimed that the G-Unit leader, 'personally reached out to Rymir and offered up his powerful legal team.' Fif caught wind of the accusation and addressed it via Instagram. 'Yo I never met this kid and I'm not helping him with anything,' he wrote in a now-deleted post. 'Keep my name out of this [sh*t] please.' The 'In Da Club' rapper never shies away from commenting on people's business, and has proudly been a thorn in Hov's side for years, so this type of act could be easy to pin on him. However, the Power executive producer is not willing to let that narrative fly. Satterthwaite, currently 31 years old, has been pursuing the Brooklyn rapper for decades, claiming that he was involved with his mother in the 90s, which led to his conception. Weeks ago, US Weekly obtained court documents revealing that Hov's legal team called Satterhwaite's lawsuit the latest effort in a 'decades-long harassment.' Satterthwaite has held firm and even accused the '99 Problems' rapper of attempting to suppress him from telling his truth. He claims Jay has taken advantage of the legal system to evade being held accountable. The Roc Nation leader has denied paternity in a variety of ways, namely via song. 'Billie Jean in his prime/ For the thousandth time, the kid ain't mine/ Online they call me Dad, kiddingly/ You're not supposed to take this Dad thing literally,' he rapped on 'Heard About Us' from his 2018 collaborative album with Beyoncé, Everything Is Love.

Jelly Roll gives credit to WWE stars ahead of SummerSlam: ‘That wrestling-is-fake stuff gotta go out the door'
Country music star Jelly Roll is set for a tag-team match at SummerSlam with WWE star Randy Orton against Drew McIntyre and Logan Paul this weekend. Jelly Roll appeared at WrestleMania 41 back in April, and as of late he was mixing it up in the ring as he tried to save Orton from McIntyre and Paul's assaults. The 6-foot-1 music star also took a dropkick to the face from McIntyre at Saturday Night's Main Event. On the penultimate 'Friday Night SmackDown' before SummerSlam, Jelly Roll delivered a Black Hole Slam to Paul. It was one of the last licks to get in before his match. Make no mistake, Jelly Roll said, pro wrestling is as real as it gets. 'These men and women put their bodies through hell … I really understand it now that I went in there. . . . Listen man, that wrestling-is-fake stuff gotta go out the door,' he said Friday on ESPN's 'Get Up.' 'There's no fake way to land on a piece of plywood in-front of 60,000 people. There's no fake way to go over a cable rope.' 'I broke my pinkie week one of training by accident. It's a constant collision.' Jelly Roll added that he wouldn't have had 'any courage' to perform at SummerSlam if he didn't have Orton in his corner. 3 Country music star Jelly Roll will appear in a tag-team match at SummerSlam this weekend. WWE / YouTube 3 Jelly Roll and Randy Orton brawled with Logan Paul and Drew McIntyre one night before their SummerSlam battle. WWE / YouTube 3 Jelly Roll credited WWE star Randy Orton for giving him 'courage' to enter the ring. WWE / YouTube Orton also gave Jelly Roll massive praise for how he's handled the increased spotlight in the last few weeks. 'I think it's pretty much common knowledge that Jelly Roll is an amazing human being. He makes time for everybody no matter who you are. He met my wife while he was hosting the 'Jimmy Kimmel Show' a few weeks ago,' Orton said. 'He was doing rehearsal, he was being pulled every which way, everyone needed a piece of Jelly Roll for rehearsal, but he made five minutes of time to meet my wife and gave her his time. 'He's just an amazing human being and he's working as hard as anyone if not harder as anyone who's come into our world.' SummerSlam is set for Saturday and Sunday night at MetLife Stadium in East Rutherford, N.J.
