The girlies are fighting. Alex Cooper asked Alix Earle what’s the beef between them after Earle had seemingly been reposting and commenting on shady videos about her for some time. So why are the two fighting, and why is TikTok the arena? Both Cooper and Earle were at Coachella, so maybe an awkward run-in inspired Cooper’s “Miley, what’s good?” moment. Here’s what Cooper had to say about Earle and why Earle may not be too happy with the Call Her Daddy she-EO.
The Call Her Daddy host posted a TikTok on April 13 and tagged Earle asking what Earle’s problem with her is. “At this point, it feels long overdue. Alix Earle, hey girl,” Cooper began. “The passive-aggressive reposts and the likes and the commenting on things. I gotta call you out here. You’re going to need to get specific and say what you need to say about me. There’s no NDA, no one is stopping you. Stop hiding behind other people and just say it yourself.” In one of the videos Earle reposted, someone wished women would stop making Call Her Daddy their first interview on a press tour or after a traumatic event, saying it feels predatory to interview someone at their lowest.
A few hours later, Earle took up the challenge, writing in a comment: “Okay on it!!”
There are some other arenas besides TikTok where the two could settle their differences. Earle’s got a new reality show brewing with Netflix, so Cooper could make an appearance to chitchat. A Call Her Daddy interview could also be an option, but either choice would put one above the other. Maybe Barstool would be more fair territory. Dave Portnoy did say he’s friends with both of them.
Earle’s Hot Mess podcast was one of the first created for Cooper’s Unwell Network in 2023. Two years later, Unwell relinquished the rights to the show, and the departure seemed not to be amicable. Months after the split, a commenter asked Earle what had happened with Cooper, and Earle replied, “How much time do you have?” Cooper has reiterated that Earle has the rights to her podcast, after she received hate from the TikTok party girl’s fans that it’s not Unwell’s fault if she’s not podcasting. Earle is filming her new reality show with Netflix, so it’s an opportunity for a story line. When one door closes …
