If You Were Wondering What Happened To Ms. Rachel, I Have Some News For You
Parents and caregivers of the tiny tots with short attention spans, don't panic!
There's an update on the whereabouts of the popular YouTuber Ms. Rachel.
While Ms. Rachel (real name Rachel Accurso) has been active on Instagram recently, her popular YouTube videos have been on hiatus, and the absence of her videos has potentially thrown some parents and children into a panic.
A famous content creator among parents and young children, Ms. Rachel's most popular video has over 1 billion views, and dozens of videos with 100 million views on YouTube.
Parents, kids, and even celebrities like Robert De Niro and Drew Barrymore are obsessed with Rachel and her content, which uses techniques early childhood experts and speech therapists recommend to teach young children important development skills.
Her last video was released on Jan. 9, and her absence on the website left her followers flocking to Instagram comments searching for their treasured digital babysitter.
"Hide and Seek with Ms. Rachel & Elmo + More Games, Kid Songs, Nursery Rhymes & Social Skills," which reached over 40 million views, was the last time in two months since a video was uploaded.
In an Instagram post about her husband and co-creator and producer, Aron Accurso, a follower asked, "When are we getting more episodes? I feel like since you've signed with Netflix we don't really get good content anymore..."
A four-episode season of Ms. Rachel premiered on Netflix on January 27. The show included interactive lessons that cover topics like "Speech and Toddler Learning," "Milestones, Nursery Rhymes, and Songs," and "Phonics, ABCs, and Preschool Learning."

But Rachel has cleared the air that the Netflix series isn't why her content's been absent from YouTube.
She responded to the comment, "I'm sorry. We've had some family things to attend to. Nothing to do with Netflix, as that is content from YouTube."
In response to another fan, Rachel said, "I will make a little video tomorrow to help ❤️."
So, to all the moms, dads, aunts, uncles, grandparents, guardians, and caretakers of little ones who were beginning to worry that we would have to start making our own Ms. Rachel videos — worry not.
Our early child development queen will make her triumphant return to the YouTube soon.
Thank goodness! Now I can take that pink shirt, blue overalls and $500 of camera equipment out of my Amazon shopping cart.

BET Awards: Jamie Foxx Tearfully Thanks God for Giving Him a 'Second Chance' After Health Scare
Jamie Foxx got emotional while accepting the Ultimate Icon Award at the 2025 BET Awards on Monday night. The actor-comedian-singer struggled to hold back tears during his speech as he thanked God for giving him a 'second chance' following his health emergency in April 2023. He revealed in his Netflix special, Jamie Foxx: What Had Happened Was…, that he had suffered a brain bleed that led to a stroke. More from The Hollywood Reporter Jonathan Mayers, Concert Promoter and Bonnaroo Co-Founder, Dies at 51 Doechii Calls Out Trump's "Ruthless Attacks" Amid L.A. Protests in BET Speech: "What Type of Government Is That?" Thank You, Sly Stone 'I cannot even begin to express the love that I feel from everybody out there,' Foxx began after accepting the award. 'I gotta be honest, when I saw the In Memoriam, I was like, man, it could have been me. I don't know why I went through what I went through, but I know my second chance, I'm not gonna turn down.' 'I have so much love to give. I told him [God], I said, man, just give me one more crack at this,' Foxx continued as his eyes filled with tears. 'I said, for whatever reason you put this on me, I promise I'm gonna do right. And I'm gonna do right in front of y'all 'cause I know a lot of times when we get on, we forget about where we come from. When I did my special, it was in front of Black people. Black people were the ones that said, man, we got you. Not to say that white people can't pray either. I know that sounds weird, but y'all know what I'm saying. It's like you guys held me down, and I don't want to make this whole speech about that, but you can't go through something like that and not testify.'

He added, 'I say this all the time, thank you to Black people and the Black award, because this is what really counts. A lot of people think like the Oscars is the biggest thing, and we got to quit thinking like that. And that's coming from a person who won an Oscar, I was nominated twice, but the Icon Award is the most important award because it comes from us.'

The Beach Boys Remember Brian Wilson: 'He Was the Soul of Our Sound'
The Beach Boys themselves are paying tribute to Brian Wilson after his family confirmed the news of his death Wednesday. 'The world mourns a genius today, and we grieve for the loss of our cousin, our friend, and our partner in a great musical adventure,' the band wrote on their official Instagram account Wednesday. 'Brian Wilson wasn't just the heart of The Beach Boys — he was the soul of our sound. The melodies he dreamed up and the emotions he poured into every note changed the course of music forever. His unparalleled talent and unique spirit created the soundtrack of so many lives around the globe, including our own. Together, we gave the world the American dream of optimism, joy, and a sense of freedom — music that made people feel good, made them believe in summer and endless possibilities.' More from The Hollywood Reporter From the Streets to the Songwriters Hall of Fame, the Doobie Brothers Look Back at 50 Years of Rock Hits Paul McCartney Pays Tribute to Brian Wilson: "He Had That Mysterious Sense of Musical Genius" Apple Music Head Calls It "Crazy" Other Streaming Platforms Offer Music for Free The band further said they were 'heartbroken by his passing.' 'We will continue to cherish the timeless music we made together and the joy he brought to millions over the decades,' the Beach Boys wrote. 'And while we will miss him deeply, his legacy will live on through his songs and in our memories.' Al Jardine, one of the founding members of The Beach Boys, gave a separate statement beyond the band's well. 'Brian Wilson, my friend, my classmate, my football teammate, my Beach Boy bandmate and my brother in spirit, I will always feel blessed that you were in our lives for as long as you were,' Jardine said. 'I think the most comforting thought right now is that you are reunited with Carl and Dennis, singing those beautiful harmonies again.' Jardine and Wilson were two of the original Beach Boys, alongside Mike Love and Wilson's two brothers, Carl and Dennis. The three Wilson brothers, their cousin Love and their friend Jardine officially formed the band in 1961. As Jardine referenced, Carl Wilson died in 1998, while Dennis Wilson died in 1983. 'You were a humble giant who always made me laugh and we will celebrate your music forever,' Jardine said. Brian, I'll really miss you…still I have the warmth of the sun within me tonight.' After Wilson's family confirmed his death, tributes began pouring in for the late icon. Elton John said on Instagram that Wilson was 'the biggest influence on my songwriting ever.' John Stamos, who has performed with The Beach Boys, including during their stint on Full House, shared a tribute on Instagram. 'Brian Wilson didn't just soundtrack my life…he filled it with color, with wonder, with some of the most unforgettable, emotional, joyful moments I've ever known,' Stamos wrote. 'It's hard to put into words what it meant to stand beside him, laugh with him, play his music with him. Brian wasn't just a musical genius, he was a gentle, soulful, funny, complex, beautiful man.'
