A 13-year-old Canadian kid uploaded R&B covers to YouTube in 2008 from his bedroom. A talent manager named Scooter Braun stumbled on the videos and signed him.

For the next 15 years, Braun controlled everything. Tours, branding, business deals, public image. The kid became the biggest pop star on the planet, sold 150 million records, racked up 32 billion Spotify streams, and had three Diamond-certified singles before turning 25.

Then in 2022, he got hit with Ramsay Hunt syndrome. Partial facial paralysis. Cancelled the world tour. Disappeared from public life entirely.

Here's where it gets interesting.

In January 2023, he sold his entire 290-song catalog to Hipgnosis for $200 million. Every song he'd ever released. "Baby." "Sorry." "Love Yourself." All of it. Gone. At 28 years old, he cashed out his past.

Then he dropped Scooter Braun. After 15 years. No manager. No agent. For the first time in his career, nobody was making decisions for him.

Fast forward to this weekend. Coachella calls. He picks up the phone himself. Rolling Stone confirmed he negotiated his own headlining deal directly with Goldenvoice. No agent commission. No manager cut. $10 million for two weekends, and he kept all of it.

Then he walked onto the biggest stage in music, sat down behind a MacBook, and pulled up YouTube.

He played "Baby" from 2010. He played his bedroom covers from 2008. He harmonized with his 13-year-old self in front of 100,000 people. Katy Perry joked about whether he had YouTube Premium.

Half the internet called it lazy. The other half called it genius.

They're both wrong. It was a receipt.

He sold his catalog for $200 million. He fired the man who discovered him. He negotiated his own deal. And then he went back to the exact platform where it all started and said: I built this from a laptop. I'm headlining Coachella from a laptop. And for the first time in my life, every dollar is mine.

The kid from YouTube just closed the loop.

When girls from Kenya were telling Selena gomez that they were going to be sold to men if they couldn't pay education. And all selena said was "But do you believe in love?"💀

Gigi Hadid was fired from her role as an Adidas ambassador 2024 due to her support for Palestine and was replaced by Jennie from BLACKPINK

The brand generates approximately $6 billion in revenue, a significant portion of which goes to supporting Israel

Fun fact: when women are on their period, they're being flooded with testosterone. which means when men say we're emotional and hysterical on our period, it's actually because we're acting like a man.

Tahap teruknya lelaki sekarang, setiap kali travel dan saya perlu berhenti untuk solat, saya lebih rela memilih solat di RnR atau petrol pump.

Jarang solat di masjid/surau sebab tempat wanita selalunya sunyi. Tandas pula kadang terlalu jauh. Kena akui sesetengah masjid/surau memang tak mesra wanita.

Kebiasaannya suami akan jemaah di masjid, saya tunggu dalam kereta. Nanti berhenti mana-mana petrol pump, baru saya pula solat.

Kalau sunyi, memang suami akan tunggu depan pintu.

Kita wanita kena sangat berhati-hati sebab ramai lelaki otaknya sudah rosak. Tempat ibadah pun mereka tak kisah.
