Alix Earle spoke out about her feud with Alex Cooper months after the Call Her Daddy host called her out in April.
Speaking in an episode of her new reality series, Earle Meets World, Earle said she was "scared" of Cooper and had previously looked up to her as her "idol."
Earle shared a scathing text she wrote to Cooper but ultimately did not send, saying, "You took advantage of me at a young age in a new industry I knew nothing about."
Alix Earle has finally broken her silence on her feud with Alex Cooper, which was reignited earlier this year.
In the final episode of her new Netflix reality show Earle Meets World, which aired in full on Friday, the 25-year-old shared a glimpse of what was happening behind the scenes after Cooper called her out in a TikTok post on April 13.

Social media users have been waiting months for Alix Earle to address her feud with fellow podcaster and social media star Alex Cooper. The wait is officially over now that Earle has finally debuted her reality series "Earle Meets World," in which she talks about what happened with her former boss.
In an interview with USA TODAY ahead of the Sept. 4 release on Netflix, Earle, 25, was asked if she regretted not speaking out sooner or how she handled the situation. Her talking about the drama on camera was unplanned, she explained. "I can look back and think that maybe I could have done things differently," Earle said. "But honestly, I'm happy that I didn't speak out of emotions online at the time."
The two were business partners while Cooper's Unwell Podcast Network hosted Earle's "Hot Mess" podcast until March 2025. Earle abruptly left the network, took her show with her, and never explained exactly why. In April, Cooper issued a public statement regarding the feud speculation, and Earle said she would speak on it in the future.
In the first episode of "Earle Meets World," Earle briefly discusses the need to address the conflict. "I just get scared because everyone tells me not to fight with her," Earle says while talking with her dad, who's also her manager. "Because they always win and they always come out on top."
The content creator plainly says: "I definitely feel betrayed by Alex Cooper." She then goes on to explain when she was 22, she looked up to Cooper and was excited about being interviewed on Cooper's podcast "Call Her Daddy." But when Cooper hosted Earle's podcast, "she sold me on a dream that she was going to protect me and look out for me, and I feel like she took advantage of my admiration of her."

Mumbai/New Delhi: The future of Rohit Sharma and the shape of India's ODI team for the next World Cup cycle are set to dominate discussions when the BCCI's top brass meets in Mumbai on Thursday for a wide-ranging performance review.
While recent defeats in Ireland, England and Sri Lanka will be ***** sed, board officials are understood to be more concerned about the lack of a clearly defined ODI roadmap at a time when preparations for the 2027 World Cup should be taking shape.
BCCI secretary Devajit Saikia, president Mithun Manhas, head coach Gautam Gambhir, chief selector Ajit Agarkar and Centre of Excellence chief VVS Laxman will attend the meeting, with ODI and Test captain Shubman Gill and T20I skipper Shreyas Iyer also expected to be present.
At the centre of the discussions lies the most sensitive issue facing Indian cricket: Rohit's future. Though there is immense respect for the veteran opener's stature and achievements, selectors and members of the team management are increasingly aware of the need to prepare for a post-Rohit era.
According to sources, one option under consideration is to evaluate Rohit's role on a series-by-series basis rather than committing to a long-term plan through the entire World Cup cycle.
"It's very tough on a young captain like Shubman Gill when there is no clear direction. The dressing-room environment in the ODI team hasn't been the best, especially when it comes to dealing with stalwarts," a BCCI source said.
The uncertainty around Rohit reflects a broader concern. Of India's three national teams, the ODI side is regarded as the least settled. Injuries and workload management have prevented selectors from identifying a stable core, leaving several key positions unresolved.
The fast-bowling allrounder's role remains a particular headache. Hardik Pandya continues on a managed workload programme after recurring fitness issues, while Nitish ***** ar Reddy is yet to receive full clearance following rehabilitation.
"Hardik, at the moment, has been cleared to bowl six overs in a day. Reddy is still to clear his fitness tests. The ODI team doesn't have even half of the core ODI team ready. It has to be a joint effort between the CoE and the team management to zero in on players and formulate a roadmap to get them all on the park as soon as possible," the source said.
The review was initially planned after the Ireland and England tours but was postponed because of the subsequent Sri Lanka ***** ignment. It will now cover India's performances across multiple tours, including Zimbabwe and Sri Lanka.
India's 2-0 T20I series defeat in Ireland and the 4-0 drubbing in England raised alarm bells, with the 125-run loss at Nottingham viewed internally as one of the team's poorest performances in recent years. Gill's ODI side also lost the England series 2-1.
However, officials insist the exercise will focus on solutions rather than ***** igning blame, with particular emphasis on recurri

When Alix Earle spoke to Entertainment Tonight on the red carpet at the Los Angeles premiere of her new Netflix reality television series, "Earle Meets World," she slipped in a small dig directed toward her former boss, Alex Cooper, with whom she is currently embroiled in a months-long feud.
Earle was asked how it felt to finally address the beef on camera in the series that is due out Sept. 4. "I'm happy that I said my piece, but I'm happier just to, like, focus on the premiere and having the show out there," she told the reporter. "And, you know, hers are getting canceled, so it is what it is."
Earle's podcast "Hot Mess" was hosted on Cooper's Unwell Podcast Network until March 2025, when it was abruptly announced that it was leaving.
Cooper, best known for hosting the podcast "Call Her Daddy," took to social media in April of this year to address the rumors of their rift, saying in a video, "Hey girl, the passive aggressive reposts and the likes and the commenting on things — I've got to call you out here." She continued, "You're going to need to get specific and just say what you've got to say about me. There's no NDA. No one is stopping you. Stop hiding behind other people and just say it yourself." Then, Earle responded to her in the video's comment section: "Okay on it."

When bestselling author Katherine Rundell meets young readers, they sometimes play it cool.
They know fantasy books like her "Impossible Creatures," set on magical hidden islands with dragons and sphinxes, are fiction. But they lean in anyway, with a glint in their eyes, and ask, "Just to check, though, is any of it real?"
It's a rewarding comment for the author, 39, who crafted a world real enough to spark that kind of wonder. Speaking to USA TODAY with the soothing lilt of a Miss Honey, Rundell is protective of her young readers and their imaginations. In a recent essay in The Guardian, she argued that artificial intelligence "risks becoming an iron curtain that comes down between a young person and their potential for thinking."
Could fantasy books be the antidote? Rundell is the first author since J.K. Rowling to simultaneously top the children's book charts in the UK and U.S. Queen Camilla will gift every Year 6 student in the UK a copy of "Impossible Creatures" for Christmas this year. Walt Disney Studios has ***** ed up the film rights for a whopping seven figures. And a recent review said the series' next installment, "The Neverfear" (out now from Knopf Books for Young Readers) "would make JRR Tolkien proud."
"I don't think the world is going to become an easier place to be in the next few years. I think it's going to get harder … So I would love to write a book that has in it peril, danger, but also has in it a sense that even amid peril and danger and fear, it is worth finding reasons to rejoice," she tells USA TODAY. "There is a reason that the book begins and ends with a feast, because I wanted the idea that there is always cause for hope. There is always a reason to come together and celebrate love, celebrate humanity."

Cocrystal Pharma (NASDAQ: COCP) may look like another undercapitalized, clinical-stage biotech searching for its niche, and in need of a rescue, but there is more to this story than what meets the eye. Investors glancing at the stock chart may miss the signs of a strategic reset orchestrated by biotech legends, and miss this unique opportunity.
COCP is not a company that lacks science or researchers. It has a drug discovery platform technology capable of delivering broad spectrum antivirals on demand for high value diseases that include norovirus, influenza, coronaviruses, and hepatitis C. If you had to point to something they were lacking then the missing "it factor" was a clear strategic vision. They needed an operator and a commercialization guru capable of aligning the board to his vision and raising the capital they needed on favorable terms to turn a platform technology into an enterprise.
The appointment of James Sapirstein was a transformative moment for the company.
Sapirstein is a high powered biotech exec with an impeccable pedigree. He's not an eager early-career operator looking to make a name for himself. Investors need to realize he joined after decades of experience in commercial pharmaceutical leadership, antiviral development, product launches, and business development. From his bio we learned that he has participated in or led 23 product launches and has driven numerous business-development transactions. His résumé includes founding CEO of Tobira Therapeutics, CEO of Contravir Pharmaceuticals (Hepion Pharmaceuticals, Inc. NASDAQ: HEPA), executive leadership at Serono Laboratories, senior commercial roles at Gilead Sciences (NASDAQ: GILD), and international marketing leadership in Bristol Myers Squibb's (NYSE:BMY) infectious-disease division.

Cardano (ADA) continues to underperform its peers this year, as on-chain metrics continue to indicate that this former crypto darling meets all the criteria of a "zombie chain."
The native token of this blockchain has booked a 40% loss in 2026, dramatically lagging its former peers like Ethereum (ETH) and Solana (SOL), both of which have managed to trim their yearly losses 17% as a result of the latest rally.
Market sentiment has improved in the past couple of weeks, as indicated by the Crypto Fear and Greed Index. This key gauge has jumped from a recent Neutral reading of 36 to 75 at the time of writing, indicating that investors are now in "Greed" mode.
Despite this shift in sentiment, ADA is not among the token that has managed to break above its 200-day exponential moving average (EMA), primarily as investors seem to be focusing on more mature projects that have demonstrated their real-world use cases.
This explains the huge performance gap between ADA and its peers. We can list a couple of red flags that may justify why market participants are shunning this token.

EL PASO, Texas (KTSM) –The Mountain West Conference has officially made its stance on the ongoing courtroom battles across the country between high school Class of 2022 football players seeking a fifth season of eligibility and the NCAA.
On Thursday, Aug. 27, the MW followed the P4 conferences' lead in prohibiting "professional athletes" from competing in the league. The conference's statement read as follows:
"Consistent with NCAA eligibility standards, the Mountain West Board of Directors has unanimously adopted a Conference rule prohibiting professional athletes from competing in the sport of football."
"Under the rule, a student-athlete shall be ineligible to represent a Mountain West institution in football if the individual: declares for a professional sports league draft and does not timely withdraw; appears on the roster of a professional sports league; or signs a contract with a professional sports league to provide athletic services. Any student-athlete who meets one or more of these criteria shall be deemed ineligible for football competition at a Mountain West member institution."

A **** le shot is on the line for Mauricio Ruffy as well at UFC 331.
Ruffy (14-2 MMA, 5-1 UFC) meets top contender Arman Tsarukyan (23-3 MMA, 10-2 UFC) in a five-round co-main event on Sept. 19 at Crypto.com Arena in Los Angeles.
Tsarukyan has long been considered the rightful No. 1 contender, whereas Ruffy has a big opportunity to knock him off his position. Ruffy scored two-straight knockouts of Rafael Fiziev and Michael Chandler, and aims to leapfrog other contenders by beating Tsarukyan – at least that's what he's been told.
"That's the agreement with the UFC," Ruffy told Fox Sports Australia through an interpreter. "That's the last step to make. Let's make it happen."
Tsarukyan is a big favorite over Ruffy, and the Brazilian is aware of how good he is. However, after moving camps to train with UFC featherweight champion Alexander Volkanovski, Ruffy feels he has bridged the gap to compete with the division's elite.

Mourinho returns to the Bernabéu thirteen years later and MARCA sums up the challenge of Madrid's season in one word: connection — the one that must click between Vinicius and Mbappé if Real Madrid want to challenge for the biggest ******* les.
Livakovic arrives in Barcelona and, meanwhile, Laporta meets with Deco and puts the backup plan for Julián on hold for now.
The other Xavi of the day is academy product Espart, who stays with the first-team squad and takes the No. 12 shirt.
Betis knocked out Valencia with a stunning goal from Pablo García and saves from Álvaro Valles. A harsh reality check for Corberán's side.
The win leaves Betis and Sevilla, the two Seville clubs, as the only leaders with six points.

Jonathan David is a player Juventus want to offload during the final weeks of the transfer window, and the Canadian also wants to leave, but he wants the move to happen on his own terms.
David had always wanted to remain in Turin and believed his second season would be better. However, after failing to impress during pre-season, Juventus now believe the best option would be for him to leave the club this summer.
The attacker has attracted interest from some clubs, but not as many as he would have liked and certainly not from the top clubs in Europe. That has made David reluctant to leave Juventus despite the club's desire to move him on.
However, the arrival of Randal Kolo Muani means David could struggle for regular playing time. Juventus could also sign another striker before the transfer window closes, which would make his chances of featuring regularly even more difficult.
David has now accepted that he needs to leave the club, but he wants to have control over where he goes next. His preference is not simply to move away from Turin, as he wants to ensure that his next destination meets his expectations.

Adley Rutschman Earns Praise for Supporting Red Sox Pitching Staff: 'He Takes Care of the Pitcher' originally appeared on NESN. Add NESN as a Preferred Source by clicking here.
When Adley Rutschman was traded from the Orioles to the Red Sox at the trade deadline, a dark cloud hung over Baltimore. The Orioles were moving a player they intended to be part of the team's future.
The team also lost a valuable clubhouse leader, someone who always aimed for the pitching staff to thrive, something Boston's staff has learned to appreciate.
Rutschman was batting .251 with eight home runs, 47 RBIs and a .764 OPS before landing on the injured list with left wrist inflammation. The former No. 1 overall pick played his first game since July 18 on August 11. In 12 games in a Boston uniform, Rutschman is hitting .146 with one home run.
Despite early struggles at the plate, Rutschman is proving his value behind it. For one, he meets the pitcher at the end of an inning to offer words of encouragement. Words include, "Great job, let's keep it going," or "We're going to get through this."

Could UFC featherweight champion Alexander Volkanovski retire after his next fight? It depends.
Volkanovski is set to defend his ******* le against Movsar Evloev in the main event of UFC 333 (Paramount+) on Oct. 24 at Etihad Arena in Abu Dhabi. With roughly two months until the fight, Volkanovski, who turns 38 on Sept. 29, is open about the fact that retirement is a possibility.
"If things go terribly wrong, all right, we're done," Volkanovski said in an interview with Australia's 10 News. "If things go very well like the last one, no damage, go through, all right, we'll keep it rolling."
Volkanovski (28-4 MMA, 15-3 UFC) is in his second reign as 145-pound champion. During his first ******* le run, he defended the belt five time before Ilia Topuria knocked him out with a punch in February 2024, his second consecutive defeat by knockout after Islam Makhachev finished him with a head kick and punches four months earlier in a lightweight ******* le fight.
Many observers wondered then if Volkanovski was nearing the end of his career, but after Topuria vacated the featherweight ******* le, Volkanovski regained it by defeating Diego Lopes at UFC 314 and then successfully defended against Lopes in their rematch at UFC 325 this past February. Volkanovski will seek his second ******* le defends when he meets undefeated Evloev, who is 20-0 overally and 10-0 in the UFC.
