The world doesn't revolve around celebrities ‼
That shows the power celebrities wield!! Tupac and Aaliyah have both been deceased for over 20 years and we’re still talking about their movies and music 💯💯💯
‼‼‼
Facts!! Those 2 are the main one’s that are still being talked about
Social Media does this all the time! The guy that started "the blackout" got called out & exposed for being performative just recently! So, that's that!😂
Good ol' social media ‼ But really, there does seem to be a shift happening. Slowly but surely
@TonyTurner Idk, the shift I see is the older celebs/shows/movies are having a resurgence! Meanwhile, social media fame is rapidly fleeting!
Personally I think celebrities ned to stay in their lane and do their job which is to entertain the masses and help us forget our issues for a brief moment in time. Current political events isn’t their forte and their input won’t change a thing.
Honestly, I’m here for celebrity blockout 🤷🏾♀️. I wonder if this will be a forever thing or will it fall under the performative act… only time will tell.
Right ‼ How long will this really last until most drop it for the latest celebrity products to buy 👀
I'm actually all for celebrity blackout because I am sick and tired of these celebrities acting like they are above everyone else just because they're rich and famous; not to mention they constantly are not practicing on what they freaking preach because they expect their loyal fans to do it for them!
They keep forgetting that we are the ones who made them rich and famous in the first place!
It really does feel like the hunger games mixed with aristocracy!
I love that mic, Tony.
I don't get the whole celebrity blockout because they're going to be around no matter what.
Oh speaking of Aaliyah, one stan said I don't respect Aaliyah because this other UA-cam channel named "Aleeyah" was posting all her videos (interviews, audios, music videos, etc.) and I said in the comments that the channel is keeping her legacy alive, along with her fans and this guy continued to disrespect me, saying I don't respect her and my life is a joke.
I find that ppl act even weirder when it comes to deceased celebrities and the way ppl still support them. At the very least, some ppl are realizing that the world doesn't revolve around celebs and the higher powers that be 👀
@@TonyTurner I agree ;-;
I love the ambiance of you filming in your kitchen!! It’s very homey yet stylish. It almost feels like sitting at the kitchen table and talking with my brother ❤😊❤😊
Thank You ‼ I know most ppl like the high quality style but this better suits me
I find it refreshing..as even for a moment fans are able to realize celebrities breathe the same air as us regular folk. Like you Tony I used to be a huge stan of MJ and to an extent I still am today, however as time goes on and maturity happens I began to see celebs as mere humans who despite their major successes tend to pay a hefty price in the end. Its unfortunate however to keep my humility in tact I had to ask myself if I had the chance would I truly want to trade places with a celebrity...
Exactly ‼
Unfollowing celebrities is not enough. If people wanna make change they need to stop buying celebrity products, listening to their music, buying concert tickets, going to the movies, cancel every subscription etc.
People won’t do that because we all enjoy some form of entertainment.
Good discussion
Thank You ‼
@@TonyTurner no problem
Celebrities are people;
and the only stars are
in the sky. Unfortunately there was a time, I maybe use to put them
on a pedestal. However when you know better, you do better. There are still some I admirer. However I stopped calling myself a fan,years ago.
I've read comments in the past,where the audience was annoyed with celebrities takes on politics. But.. I guess nowadays the audience wants to hear more; from celebrities on global issues.
Celebrities are getting paid way too much money ! Where is the money coming from ?? Why they don’t speak on poverty ! We regular Americans have absolutely nothing ! idk why ppl support celeb brands they do absolutely nothing for us !
They do entertain us
It's just a phase because many of them know that their fans are fickle. Therefore, all they will have to do is say something and their fanbase will fall back in line.
Even if it is performative, I hope we can move away from buying things just because they are a certain brand or made by a certain celebrity. I hope that that's some good that can come from this.
This to me is very performative and unnecessary. People treat celebrities like they’re what’s wrong with the world when it it’s just a title. When I was growing up, we did not act like this towards celebrities. We actually appreciate and respected their work now. Everybody wants to trash on them, especially over something like this. I don’t think anybody is obligated to speak on something they don’t understand or have knowledge in. They’re not comfortable talking about. People expect celebrities to jump on everything and some of them just don’t feel comfortable doing that, and that should be ok.This doesn’t do anything but create more distractions
Those are fair points ‼ Because at the end of the day, these are celebrities known for certain things not politicians.
I don't think we should trash creative people unnecessarily, but we can hold them accountable - esp since wealth inequality and climate change are big problems.
It also depends on the person. Have celebs like, say, the Kardashians actually contributed anything meaningful to society at all? No. Their clothing brands were made by slave labor, they run their private jets like crazy, and they have never had any achievements other than being born wealthy already.
I have mixed feelings about this movement.
@@TonyTurner yeah this isn’t their lane lol, so, why speak on something don’t fully understand?
They’re people trying to promote a brand. Outside of that, I look at someone like J.K. Rowling (who I know is a writer but she falls into the category of a famous artist), and I feel like her franchise would still be huge if she could’ve kept her politics and her bullshit under wraps.
Now she’s just a grifter that caters to conservatives
@@britbritnicole9211 why do you assume that? do you think once famous all your braincells die off? they know what's going on. they keep quiet because it protects their status quo, even though they could do a lot of good by literally sending a selfie with the palestinian flag behind them that takes like 5 seconds. people are dying out there and youre all acting like this doesn't concern anyone. very american position to hold. and on top of all that, do you think politicians are all perfect to handle this? theyre doing the same thing as those celebrities, just protecting their asses lol. wake up
Off topic, but Tony should do a CD collection video 🤔🔥🔥🔥
I agree. Blockout 2024 is likely not to make a difference to some celebrities and could die out, but it is important.
I had read an interesting comment on another video regarding this. It stated that even if the celebrity blockout "works", in the long run nothing changed because people already treat influencers like celebrities. So it will just be people moving from one thing to another, rather than stopping anything.
There are already many people who treat even small influencers the same as celebrities, buying everything they promote, having a deep parasocial relationship with said person, have the same expectations of them as they do celebrities, etc.
Katt Williams was right! The day of reckoning is coming!
Honestly, the moment people stop putting celebrities on pedestals, you get to see that they're just people. I do think having them talk about pressing issues help educate those who use them as an escape; but time and time again we see that these celebrities are so driven by money that they get blinded by it.
I'm kind of hoping people don't fall for their performative activism and let these celebrities fall to obscurity.
The mic does make you sound like you're in an empty room.
Everything that glitter isn't gold and that's a fact. ❤❤❤❤💯💯💯💯
I knew it was a new mic before the reveal 😂😂 sounds more crisp
This was another interesting and insightful discussion Tony! I love your Aaliyah shirt and new mic. Keep up the excellent content. ❤❤❤❤
Thank You ‼
@@TonyTurner You're welcome
Great video bro!
It's too toxic and dangerous. I have a problem with people of toxic fan bases have no boundaries. Personally, I experienced toxic fans with their "self-entitlement" and lack of "empathy". People are human beings literally. I will say people just love controversy nowadays. Everything is a "big deal" and people just like drama. I feel celebrities should just be themselves and they can do it all. Having a gift and passion while balancing it is the way to go. They do have the right to live normal lives. There a few cool ones and a few Jeepers Creepers ones. With that being said it's all about boundaries. This is insightful. I pretty much look at it like this boundaries are important despite the celebrity media and social media climate. 💯
Right. Thank You ‼
@@TonyTurner No problem. 💯
One of the reasons why people are doing which i agree is because they are sick, and tired of celebrities being going to these rich parties.
Is there a limit, star wars suggests the bigger fish theory😈
there is a weird echo thing going on in this video. I though it was a glitch from UA-cam downloading it, but it sounds the same.
New mic glitching probably. Thanks for letting me know
I refuse to engage with celebrities, always have, even before I had an actual good reason to. This whole blockout thing is kind of a "What took you so long?" moment for me. Like holy shit its taken *so much* for it to finally click with people that millionaires, superstars, they're not your friends, they're the modern day aristocracy and we're the peasants. We break our backs and die so they can live in inhuman luxury.
I’ll be honest: Michael Jackson is my favorite artist of all time and I’m still unsure if the allegations are true or not. I usually just stay out of those conversations and feel no need to defend him one way or the other.
I have mixed feelings.
We need to stop expecting the wealthy (including celebs and entertainers) to solve the world’s problems. I think this reinforces the parasocial relationship, worship, and creates a belief that the wealthy should still hold all the power of change. I think Taylor Swift fans, for instance, viewed her as a social justice hero, feminist, and role model. She isn’t going to save women or the world, she’s just a pop star. A lot of celebs have had very bad - or harmful - takes on the issues they voiced upon. Some came across as performative. Some end up being hypocritical, like Taylor Swift voicing against climate change but being the top celeb polluter. I think it’s okay for not every opinion to be public. As for charity, most celebs do that already, but charity won’t solve the world’s problems ... in fact, the charitable industrial complex has been criticized as REINFORCING wealth inequality. It kind of exists for the wealthy to make themselves look like heroes and get praised while getting large tax deductions. Poverty Inc is a great documentary on the subject.
I took issue with the Met Gala because it promotes the luxury fashion industry, which is environmentally awful, based on slave labor, and can anyone justify spending $10k on a dress when people are starving? The Met Gala (even if I appreciate fashion design as an art form) is sponsored by major fashion corporations and other corporations, and it’s pretty much one big lavish advertisement.
I’d focus most of this energy, however, on the worst offenders of harm: politicians like Trump or billionaires like Bezos, Musk, and Rupert Murdoch. The social media platforms like Twitter, Facebook, UA-cam, and bad news outlets that have failed to act against hate and disinformation being promoted. Massive corporations like weapons companies that are fueling and profiting from the wars, or companies like Amazon that exploit workers and kill the planet.
All in all, I don’t know that this movement will have much impact or not.
Very true, but I find the criticism of the met gala very silly.
To be honest, the world is too political nowadays. It’s like everything has to end up having politics involved in some way, that includes celebrities.
What's your opinion Tony on this new Dame Dash interview?? He seems so hurt. They just asked him is there something that we don't know about Aaliyah that needs to be said. Same: a lot went on that you don't know and I'm not ready to speak about it yet
Ik this may be Off topic but could u make a vid about the rapper dolla who collaborated with akon in the song "like this" . Could u talk about his career and the story behind his death?
I would have to look into it for more details. Thanks for the suggestion‼
@@TonyTurner out of curiosity have u seen the details?
This might be one of the few good things to come out of the “free-Palestine” movement. However, I also don’t think that celebrities should always be pressured to speak on such hot button issues because who is to say that they’re educated on the topic? This is especially true for the Israel/Palestine issue that is not as black and white as many people have been led to believe. A lot of these celebrities also probably don’t want to alienate the Jewish or Arab portions of their audience , which is understandable.

I feel like it’s longest people keep it consistent and don’t fold within a week they could get the results they’re looking for obviously like you said not every celebrity is going to be bankrupt or even 5% of them, but it will get the message to a lot of them that they should use their platform for other things besides From promotion
Damn not jack black
I’ve never understood some peoples obsession with celebrities. Like some fans know the entire life story of their favorite celebrities, including any beef they have with other people & celebrities. It gets really creepy with some people.
I’m always sad when one of my faves ends up not being a good person. Like apparently Tara Strong one of my favorite VA’s is racist and then tried playing the race/ethnicity card (Jewish) to complain about being fired from a cartoon even though one of the creators is also the same race/ethnicity.
What was the Tara strong situation?
Take an L before ya raise one
This celebrity block out went from a fantastic idea to more so self centered and having bragging points on who has better morals than this celebrity.
I don't follow celebs like that, so this was very easy for me but i noticed that the celeb block wennt from lets block zionist celebs or celebs who been silent about whats going on in Palestine, Congo, Sundan, etc to now its "haha im more morally right than this celeb"
And i noticed these lists don't even have actual Zionists on it, they have celebritiies who has a history of being pro palestine.
I don't get how Amy Schumer isn't on these list barely and she's said some horrible things, supporting ongoing genocide but Jenna Ortega, who's been speaking out since she was a teenager on disney and even lost jobs for it is on there.
Like i was much here for the block but its so idiotic to me now.
Also some of these celebs, in my opinion, should've BEEN blocked.
Like the Kardashians. I had them blocked since we met them on that tv show
To block Zionist celebs is so alienating to Jewish audiences. I guess it’s good that people may not be focusing to much on celebrities, though.
I hate to say the Rihanna and Beyoncé of the world have not said anything about Gaza issues even my faves such as Chris brown and 21 savage and key Glock but dick Gregory said stop looking for celebrities to leads us in the community .
Lemme take the time to say YOU CAN WRITE IN YOUR VOTE!!! You don't need to pick Trump or Biden!!! LEARN WHO YOUR VIEWS ACTUALLY ALIGN WITH AND WRITE IN YOUR VOTES!!!!!
Terrible advice unfortunately. Voting for a third party inevitably only helps one of the two candidates.
@@chickensalad3535 because no writes in their votes.... You see how that cycle works!!
