Alex Cooper and Alix Earle are both seeking to confront each other in a public forum. The host of the "Call Her Daddy" podcast and a former contestant on "Dancing With the Stars" first sparked rumors of a feud in March 2025, after Earle's "Hot Mess" podcast was removed from Cooper's Unwell Network. This move came after Earle was one of the first creators to sign up for the new company in 2023. While Cooper, 31, confirmed in TikTok comments at the time that "Alix not being able to podcast has nothing to do with Unwell," Earle, 25, had a slightly different perspective. In fact, she told WSJ Magazine in May that her departure involved "a little bit of a hot mess" behind the scenes.

The duo's beef recently came to a head after Earle reposted an April 9 TikTok that likened Cooper to an "ambulance chaser" and "grim reaper" due to the traumatic stories celebrities share on her podcast. And Cooper had some thoughts following the repost.
"Alix Earle, hey girl, the passive-aggressive reposts and the likes and comments on things—I got to call you out here," Cooper said in an April 13 TikTok. "You're going to need to get specific and just say what you have to say about me. There's no NDA, no one is stopping you. Stop hiding behind other people and just say it yourself."
"What's the beef?" she continued. "Because I'm really tired of waking up and seeing you using this big drama to distract from other things going on online for you. Not interested, I know what happened, and so do you."
Cooper added, "I have nothing to hide when it comes to you and me."
Earle was quick to respond, writing in the comments under Cooper's video, "Okay on it!!" The influencer then posted her own TikTok on April 14, sharing that she was woken up by friends showing her Cooper's video the day after she attended Coachella. And she found herself genuinely amused by Cooper's call-out, laughing as she noted that the video "literally made my whole day."
