Sitting down with Atlanta’s Top Talent Manager, Justin Weatherford w/ FAM Networks

What’s your full name, age, and where are you from?

Justin Weatherford, 27, Atlanta, GA.

What made you want to start doing digital media? 

I first got involved in the digital media industry as a creator when I started producing my own videos back in 2012. I quickly understood the many challenges that faced creators and the opportunities that were becoming available. In 2015 I joined FAM Networks to start helping up-and-coming content creators grow their exposure and revenues by providing coaching based on my experiences as a creator. 

What was the hardest obstacle you had to overcome?

What would you consider your biggest accomplishment thus far in your career?

Our biggest accomplishment as a company is FAM Networks breaking the 50+ billion video view milestone for our clients across digital and traditional broadcast platforms.

What legacy would you like to leave behind for yourself?

I’d like to be remembered as the guy who came in and changed the management norm from mismanaged and ambiguous to transparent and talent-first. FAM Networks is paving the way for future influencers to be able to enter into an industry that will work for them and not against them.

Interview

Nene Leakes Left Wide-Eyed By Chrisean Rock’s 12-Kid Reveal

H

Reality icon Nene Leakes is no stranger to jaw-dropping interviews, but even she had to pause when Chrisean Rock dropped a bombshell on her latest appearance. As a guest on Nene’s talk show, the viral rapper and internet sensation opened up about her complicated relationship with Blueface, motherhood, and a surprise personal decision that had fans and Nene herself doing a double take. In a heart-to-heart moment, Nene delicately inquired about the infamous Blueface tattoo prominently inked on Rock’s cheek.

“Why you put him on your face because you have a beautiful face?” Nene asked, with the sass and sincerity only she can deliver. “Now, Chrisean… would you ever take it off?” Without hesitation, Chrisean confirmed what many fans didn’t see coming. “I’m do it on my stream,” she said confidently. “I want my fans to be a part of the process.” But just when the conversation seemed like it couldn’t get any more personal, Rock took it to another level by revealing she hopes to have twelve children in the future.

The confession left Nene and likely anyone watching with raised eyebrows and a host of follow-up questions. While Rock didn’t dive into the timeline or logistics, her conviction was clear. In an age where celebrities often filter their truths, Chrisean’s candidness struck a chord, if not a nerve. Nene, ever the seasoned host, managed to keep her cool, delivering her signature blend of shocked expression and knowing nod. “Twelve? Girl, you better get to work!”

Chrisean’s willingness to share her journey, including the removal of a very public symbol of her past and her dreams of a big family, gives a new dimension to the often misunderstood star. Whether or not the world is ready for Rock and her future football team-sized family, she’s doing things on her own terms. As for Nene, she may just need a moment to recover before the next guest walks in with a story to top this one.

Keke Opens Up On Why Her Jonathan Majors Interview Never Aired

H

Keke Palmer has always been open about her feelings, and this week was no exception as she talked about a canceled podcast episode featuring actor Jonathan Majors, who is currently facing legal challenges. Back in April, fans noticed a preview for what seemed to be an exciting and possibly controversial episode of her podcast, “Baby, This Is Keke Palmer.” The Wondry app described it with the phrase “Accountability. It’s a loaded word, right?” The episode was set to explore how society is changing its views on forgiveness, justice, and what it means to hold people, especially men, accountable for their actions.

Naturally, fans became curious when the episode didn’t air as planned. They wondered if it was canceled because of Majors’ legal issues or if Keke decided not to release it on her own. During a recent interview on “Way Up With Angela Yee,” Keke finally shared her thoughts. She explained that some of the decisions may have been beyond her control, but she spoke about it in a calm and respectful way. She didn’t blame anyone or go for shock value but hinted that there were bigger issues influencing the situation.

Keke’s honesty adds depth to ongoing discussions about celebrity culture, responsibility, and how media decisions are made. By choosing not to give too many details, she showed her maturity and professionalism, qualities her fans truly appreciate. This situation reminds creators of the careful balance they must maintain when discussing sensitive subjects. Keke, known for her honesty and charm, is willing to tackle tough conversations but understands when it’s best to hold back.

Whether or not the episode with Jonathan Majors will ever be released is still uncertain. However, Keke Palmer is not afraid to engage with difficult topics, she simply knows when to speak up and when to step back. In today’s world, where silence can often be misinterpreted as agreement, Keke demonstrates that sometimes, choosing to stay quiet is also a way of being accountable.
