Fousey Ignites Controversy After Repeating The N-Word In Front Of DDG & His Friends

October 17, 2024 by newhiphopnews

Fousey is a streamer and a YouTuber who has been embroiled in numerous controversies over the years. Overall, it always feels like Fousey is trying to make a comeback following a manic episode. This happened in 2018 and it happened again in 2023. However, the star is back streaming in 2024, and many are wondering how long this is going to last for. Unfortunately, it already seems like Fousey is back to his old ways, which is leaving many in a state of fear.

Fousey was on stream with DDG and some of the rapper’s friends. Overall, it was supposed to just be a chill get-together, but when Fousey is involved, that is rarely the case. As you can see in the video down below, Fousey started using the N-word repeatedly, much to the shock of everyone in the room. However, everyone just kept letting him use it unchecked. This turned into a viral clip that is now making the rounds all over social media.

Fousey Did Not Seem To Care

Fans reacted to this with a bit of shock and disgust, while others simply resorted to making jokes. Ultimately, this is not a great look for Fousey. Having said that, he streams on Kick which is a platform that does not care about this kind of thing. They let their creators do whatever they want, and while it has led to huge problems, they have refused to change their business model. Overall, this is why Twitch will always be the more popular and serious platform.

Let us know what you think about all of this, in the comments section down below. Do you believe that someone should have stepped in to tell Fousey that what he was doing is wrong? Do you think that any of the people he associates with have his best interests at heart? Additionally, stay tuned to HNHH for the latest news and updates from around the entertainment world.

Fousey Reveals He Attempted Suicide, In Heartbreaking Letter To Fans

June 5, 2024 by newhiphopnews

Fousey is someone who had an incredibly difficult 2023. Overall, this was due to his manic episode that was broadcast to thousands upon thousands of people. If you remember, he was going viral thanks to a Streamathon in which he was live on Kick 24 hours per day. He was always streaming, and fans got to see every single interaction and ever single moment of his day. Unfortunately, it all came to an end when Fousey was arrested on stream after making terroristic threats over the phone. Months later, Fousey has taken to Twitter to share where he’s at right now.

“As you know, it’s been almost a year since I’ve been on social media, and I need to be brutally honest about where I am,” Fousey began. “Ever since the live streaming incident last year that changed everything (again), I have been suffering deeply, and I don’t know how to escape this pain. Every day, I feel trapped in my own mind, suffocating, and battling suicidal thoughts. I even attempted to take my own life this year and failed. Now, I feel like a dead man walking—emotionless, empty, and stuck in a cycle of despair.”

This is all very heartbreaking, and it just goes to show that content creation and the internet can weigh heavily on one’s mental health. Furthermore, Fousey noted that he has been suffering from Anhedonia. For those who may not know, this is when you stop enjoying the things that used to bring you joy. It’s a complete lack of feeling that strips you of your desire to do things that are fun and exciting. Moreover, Fousey says he is still trying to get better, but acknowledges that depression is something he will have to battle for the rest of his life. These are heartbreaking admissions that many can empathize with.

If you or someone you know is struggling with depression and suicidal thoughts, please call 1–800–273–8255. We hope that Fousey is able to find peace and comfort during this incredibly difficult time. Mental health is no joke, and if you find yourself dealing with a hard time, it is imperative to seek help. There is no shame in that.

November 21, 2023 by newhiphopnews

Fousey is someone who is always making headlines, one way or another. For those who do not know, he is a content creator who was known for making pranks. Over the years, he gained prominence and was one of the biggest names in the YouTube space. However, in 2018, things went awry due to his July 15th event. Subsequently, he went away for a while, only to come up and go away on a periodic basis. Most recently, he became a streamer who then went on to have a manic episode, leading to his hospitalization.

This has happened to Fousey before, but he has not learned from these lessons. Instead, he is being enabled by those who stand to make money from him. As it turns out, he plans to return to streaming very soon. He is even making some sort of promotional video to usher in this new era. As you can see in the post below from DJ Akademiks, the streamer was dressed up as the nurse version of the Joker from The Dark Knight. Clearly, he is cooking up something interesting.

For a lot of people, the entire Fousey arc is one that is not worth watching all over again. At the end of the day, it was like watching a trainwreck every time he went live. However, for some people, that is the entertainment they desire. Overall, we hope that Fousey is going to be okay. It has been a difficult road for him, and it would be sad to watch things go off the rails again. Only time will tell whether or not those around him are actually looking out for him. After all, Los Angeles is full of fake people.

Adin Ross Gifts Fousey With $100K: Watch

November 6, 2023 by newhiphopnews

Adin Ross is someone who has certainly gotten a lot of flack for his on-stream antics. After all, he is someone who is known to say some pretty outlandish things sometimes. However, he has been able to stay pretty even-keeled as of late. Additionally, he has been trying to give back to people by gifting huge amounts of money. At this point, Ross is one of the richest streamers out there, so he certainly has the cash to spend. Not to mention, it always leads to a perfect viral opportunity.

For instance, Adin Ross recently had Fousey on his stream. If you don’t remember, Fousey was arrested on his stream months ago due to a mental health crisis. He was streaming 24 hours per day and his mental health was seriously deteriorating the entire time. Now, however, he appears to be back, albeit in a more subdued manner. In the video below, you can see Adin and Fousey having a conversation with one another. During the conversation, Fousey revealed that he was having financial troubles. As a result, Ross decided to bless him.

Adin Ross x Fousey

Near the end of the video, Adin reveals that he is fiving Fousey a total of $100K. Of course, Fousey was very excited about this and gave Ross a hug. Ross couldn’t keep it too serious, however, as he made sure to get in a joke about r*pe. Regardless, this was a great move for Ross to make especially since people have been feeling bad for Fousey. He went through a lot during his subathon, and now, he has some money that will allow him to rebuild his life.

Hopefully, Fousey is able to see a mental health specialist and get himself right. Let us know what you think about all of this, in the comments section down below.

Fousey Remains In Mental Hospital, Streamer Attempts To Break Him Out

September 6, 2023 by newhiphopnews

If you are a fan of the streamer Fousey, then you know that he has been out of comission for a while now. Overall, things were getting seriously out of control with him. He had been streaming every single second of every day for two months, and his mental health was faltering. Moreover, he has a history of mental health issues, which led to lots of concern. Eventually, his streams became a vehicle for his deteriorating mental state, and it finally blew up. He called the cops claiming to be a hostage, and he was subsequently arrested for wasting the police’s time.

At the time of his arrest, it was clear that he was in need of some sort of help. Consequently, the authorities took him to a mental hospital where he was given treatment. Since that time, he has spoken about, but he only did so on one occasion. He has yet to speak again, and it appears as though he is still in the hospital. Overall, fans are concerned about him and they are looking for answers. As you can see in the video below from Drama Alert, fellow streamer Baked Alaska tried to get said answers.

Baked Alaska Tries Rescuing Fousey

As you can see, the streamer enters a mental hospital where he is looking for Fousey and his information. The man claims that his family and friends are worried for him as they haven’t heard from him. Subsequently, the person at the desk tells him they don’t have information for him. This leads to Baked Alaska believing he might be at the wrong hospital. It’s a bit of a strange video, and some felt like Alaska was just trying to farm some clout on the situation. If that is the case, then that is pretty despicable.

Hopefully, Fousey is just getting the help and treatment he needs right now. It was becoming clear that streaming was getting toxic and unhealthy for him. Now, however, he is free from his schedule, and can focus on getting his mind right. Let us know your thoughts on the situation, in the comments section below.

Sneako Claims He, Adin Ross, And FouseyTube Are Considering Starting A Content House

August 30, 2023 by newhiphopnews

Content houses are a concept that has lost much of its luster in recent years. Once seen as a surefire way to maximize networking and content goals, they are now seen as something of a relic. With content becoming increasingly virtual and short-form, the idea of content creators living together just doesn’t have the same appeal as it once did. Furthermore, docuseries such as Netflix’s series surrounding “Hype House” went a long way to dispelling much of the glamor behind the idea.

However, that’s not stopping three of the most divisive figures in content creation from considering it. Speaking on a recent stream, Sneako announced that he was potentially considering starting a content house alongside Adin Ross and Fousey. As mentioned, these three have reputations and not very good ones at that. Furthermore, the idea was not exactly well received online.

Viewers Roast Sneako/Adin Ross/FouseyTube Content House Idea

The top comment under the clip of Sneako discussing the idea is a gif of house exploding. In fairness, that is a very good description of how the project will likely go down. “The worst of the worst are coming together to be bad,” remarked another user. However, the general sentiment is that this idea is terrible but the content would be amazing. While some people mean that sincerely, it’s clear that others are imagining the inevitable streaming docuseries about just how badly things went inside this house.

It’s unclear if this is a thing that will actually happen. Furthermore, it’s unknown who else they would bring into the project. After all, content houses are rarely that small. Additionally, the level of toxicity present would be intolerable if there weren’t additional parties to dilute (or concentrate) it. This may be a story to keep an eye on. If anything comes of it, will have all the updates here at HotNewHipHop. Do you think it sounds like a good idea? Or is this going to make for one hell of a car crash? Let us know in the comments.

Who Is Fousey? Famed Prankster & YouTube Vlogger

August 30, 2023 by newhiphopnews

YouTube has enjoyed longevity and exponential growth over the years. Numerous creators who started on YouTube have transitioned into massive media personalities and internet superstars. One such creator is the infamous YouTube prankster, Fousey. The YouTube sensation, who deems himself the “Kanye Of Social Media,” was led away by the police while on a livestream after calling them on himself on Wednesday, August 23. Reports soon came in that he was not arrested, but rather taken for a mental health evaluation. It remains a developing story.

Fousey’s Background And Ascent

Fousey was born Yousef Saleh Erakat on January 22, 1990. The YouTuber and Vlogger was born in California, to Palestinian Muslim parents. Erakat is known for his vlogs, pranks, and social experiment videos. He created and ran a number of YouTube channels between 2011 and 2014, mostly focusing on fitness. However, it was in 2015 that the YouTuber gained popularity with his engaging new content and energetic personality. He has since adopted the names “Fousey,” and “FouseyTube” which is also the name of his most popular YouTube channel.

Evolution Of FouseyTube

Fousey’s rise to fame was marked by his ability to connect with a wide audience. His videos often featured comedic sketches and public pranks. He also experimented with transformation pranks, using make-up and costumes to alter his appearance and engage with people incognito. Additionally, he explored emotional pranks that elicited heartfelt reactions, showcasing his ability to create varied content beyond just comedy.

FouseyTube’s content further evolved to include vlogs and personal stories where he shared his experiences, struggles, and triumphs. He openly discussed mental health issues, relationships, and his own journey, connecting on a deeper level with his audience. Throughout his career, Fousey has consistently incorporated motivational messages into his content. Furthermore, he aims to inspire viewers to pursue their dreams, be kind, and overcome challenges.

Challenges And Controversies

Fousey has faced criticism for certain aspects of his videos, which were either deemed too dangerous or staged. His most notable public event was a concert he dubbed “Hate Dies, Love Arrives,” which he was set to host on July 15, 2018. It is also possibly his most criticized stunt to date. After recording a number of about 1,500 attendees, the event was shut down, and the organizers were forced to evacuate the audience due to a bomb threat. Following the incident, he took a hiatus from posting on his social media accounts.

He returned to YouTube in 2021 with a boxing-related channel and went on to have a short-lived boxing career. Although he made his boxing debut in 2019, it was in 2022 he vowed never to fight again, after losing his second-ever career match.

In August 2023, he was involved in another controversial incident, which involved an intoxicated woman he claimed to have sex with. He eventually rescinded his statement, claiming it was a prank, but he received heavy criticism regardless and was subsequently banned from Twitch. He later announced he would move on to stream on another live-streaming service, Kick. It was while streaming on Kick he was apprehended by the Miami Police on August 23.

Fousey Breaks His Silence Amid Stay At Mental Health Hospital

August 28, 2023 by newhiphopnews

Fousey, AKA FouseyTube, has been making a whole lot of noise in the streaming space as of late. However, this noise isn’t exactly good. For those who don’t know, the man was originally a prank YouTuber. Although, when the prank industrial complex came to an end, he moved on to trying to put on live events. This subsequently led to a manic episode in 2018 which put him in the hospital. From there, he got into YouTube boxing. This ultimately failed and in 2023, he started a 24/7 subathon on Twitch and Kick. Overall, this led to massive success that derailed fast.

In his most recent stream, Fousey was arrested after causing a disturbance at a hotel. He claimed that there was a gun to his head and that he was in danger. However, this was not actually the case. Sure, he was being harassed by another streamer via phone calls. That said, he responded in the worst way possible. His behavior was indicative of a pattern that fans had noticed for weeks. It was clear he needed help, and the authorities took him to a mental health hospital for evaluation.

Fousey Is Back

It has been almost a full week since fans have heard from Fousey. Over the weekend, however, he offered an update from the hospital. In the video above, you can see him telling his fans he is disappointed with how they have treated him. He believes they aren’t talking to him enough on Discord and that everyone is simply being “weird.” Moreover, the streamer says that he is being drugged every time he says the wrong thing. It was hard to tell whether or not he was joking. However, there is no timetable on when he will be released.

This is a developing situation, so stay tuned to HNHH for all of the latest news from around the entertainment world. Additionally, let us know what you think of all this, in the comments section below. Can Fousey eventually come back from this? Or should he stop the streams for his safety?

Fousey Confronts The Island Boys For Kissing Each Other

August 24, 2023 by newhiphopnews

Fousey has been making all of the headlines as of late as it pertains to the world of streaming. Back in 2018, he had to leave the internet after he experienced a horrific manic episode that culminated in dozens of YouTube documentaries. Subsequently, he has tried to work his way back into relevance. Just a few months ago, it worked as he became an “In Real Life” streamer. Originally, these streams were nice and wholesome. However, once his viewership went up and he got a big contract from Kick, delusions of grandeur kicked in. Now, it seems like he is having another manic episode, and his fans are scared.

For instance, just a couple of nights ago, Fousey was on stream when he was threatened by a stalker. This subsequently led to him calling the police. Although, things devolved as he began yelling at them while acting in an unhinged manner. Consequently, the streamer was put in handcuffs and was taken to the hospital for a mental health evaluation. Since that time, many have been pulling up clips from his last stream, including the one below, which involves the Island Boys.

The Island Boys are also known for their antics online. They got into a huge controversy for kissing each other and also pretending to give each other oral sex. In the clip posted by DJ Akademiks, Fousey confronts the Island Boys for the former of these offenses. The streamer says it is something you shouldn’t do and as a Muslim, he is very much against it. He called the Island Boys “gay” and proceeded to berate them. The two brothers pled their case, saying the whole thing wasn’t sexual, however, Fousey was not buying it for a second.

It was yet another viral clip from a stream that will be remembered for a long time. Albeit, for the worst reasons. Let us know your thoughts on the Fousey situation, in the comments section below. Additionally, stay tuned to HNHH for more news and updates from the entertainment world.

Fousey Taken To Hospital For Mental Health Evaluation

August 23, 2023 by newhiphopnews

Popular streamer Fousey has been going through a lot as of late. For the last two months, he has been engaging in a subathon where he streams for large amounts of time. However, a lot of his streams have been going off the rails. He has gotten himself into trouble with the law, while also getting belligerent in public. Overall, it has been hard to watch, however, his fans are still feeding into it. Unfortunately, last night, things seemingly hit a climax with a very disturbing scene from a Miami hotel room.

As we already reported, Fousey was streaming when he received a call from someone who had previously threatened his mom. Fousey gave the man a warning, however, it fell on deaf ears. Subsequently, he called the police and falsely claimed that there was a hostage situation and that he was the victim. The cops showed up, only to find out that there was no hostage being taken. From there, we see Fousey yell at the cops before being handcuffed and taken away. The stream quickly ends after that.
