Introduction

In this riveting episode of the Digital Social Hour, host Sean Kelly delves deep into the tumultuous journey of Alexis Afshar, a prominent content creator who faced a devastating social media crisis. The discussion centers around how hackers managed to erase Alexis's million-view YouTube channel, the subsequent challenges she encountered, and the broader implications for creators navigating the digital landscape.

The Social Media Catastrophe

Alexis Afshar opens up about the sudden disappearance of her YouTube videos, which had amassed millions of views over time.

• [03:35] Alexis: “Every single YouTube video of mine is off the Internet. So many millions and millions of views.”

Alexis recounts attempting to locate her content, only to find it inexplicably vanished from all platforms. She suspects that a transition issue between YouTube Shorts and her main channel may have been exploited by malicious actors.

• [01:38] Alexis: “I went to look at my video and I can't find my video. It's nowhere to be found.”

Impact on Her Online Presence

The loss of her YouTube presence had a domino effect on her overall social media engagement. Alexis discusses the drastic drop in her visibility across other platforms like Instagram and Facebook.

• [04:10] Alexis: “Even Facebook. I posted something on Facebook. I have almost 3 million followers. It said that 40 people saw my post. That's absurd.”

She touches upon the issue of shadow banning, where platforms subtly reduce the visibility of content without explicit notification.

• [04:15] Alexis: “I'm the shadow band queen. ... I think trustworthy-hopeless even politicians have community notes, but I don't agree with those because they still have community notes that are absolute bull.”

Strategies for Recovery

Determined to regain her footing, Alexis shares the steps she's taking to recover her online presence. This includes leveraging other platforms like TikTok, where she's actively rebuilding her follower base.

• [02:16] Alexis: “I'm on my fifth TikTok. We're getting up to 6k followers. I really like going live on TikTok because people get to know me as a person.”

She also explores the use of paid advertisements to boost engagement, a strategy she typically avoids unless necessary.

• [03:39] Alexis: “I started putting money into ads to see if this will kickstart engagement. We're seeing what the vibes are.”

Challenges with Social Media Policies

Alexis vents about the perplexing and often inconsistent policies of social media platforms, which inadvertently contributed to her account bans and content removals.

• [04:40] Alexis: “The last time I posted Donald Trump with his hand going up, like a picture of it, it said false advertisement. Completely put a ban on my account until April next year.”

She highlights the difficulties creators face when navigating the opaque and sometimes arbitrary enforcement of platform rules.

Community and Support Systems

Despite the setbacks, Alexis emphasizes the importance of community support and collaboration among creators facing similar challenges.

• [20:05] Alexis: “I created Lex Luthor Records to service girls like me that have OnlyFans. I can help guide them from top to bottom, develop their projects, and create a safe community.”

Her initiative aims to empower independent artists and content creators by providing resources and a support network to overcome industry barriers.

Personal Resilience and Future Plans

Alexis reflects on her resilience in the face of adversity and outlines her plans to rebrand and expand her creative endeavors.

• [34:24] Alexis: “I'm on a mission. I have a crazy music video dropping in November. I might do some sort of rebranding because sometimes you have to change to overcome stigma.”

She expresses optimism about the future, intending to explore new avenues like acting and expanding her global presence.

Notable Quotes

Transcript

[Alexis Afshar]

I've got a lot of grandbabies. Like, a lot, a lot. And when it comes to finding a gift for each of them, you know, it could add up. But this year, while I was making my way through Walmart, I realized I don't have to spend a lot to get the gifts. They'll love an OPI mini mani set. I'm gonna do so much nail art. Oh, yeah. A Lego set. My own Awala water bottle. Ooh. And that's just half of them. Shop great gifts.

[Unknown Host]

They're sure to love for $25 and under at Walmart.

[Alexis Afshar]

[Unknown Host]

I went through some of your tweets. These were interesting. You ate a tuna sandwich at a donut shop. That sounds gross.

[Alexis Afshar]

It's the best tuna sandwich ever.

[Unknown Host]

What?

[Alexis Afshar]

It's so good. The corner donut shop, Birmingham High School in the Valley, they make the best tuna sandwich. I was like, give me the tuna sandwich. They're like, okay. They're known for it. I swear. It's like a thing.

[Unknown Host]

No one here has had one because.

[Alexis Afshar]

You guys aren't real Valley Los Angeles people is fine.

[Unknown Host]

All right, guys, we got Alexis Afshar here today.

[Alexis Afshar]

What's up?

[Unknown Host]

Going through a lot right now. Your YouTube got deleted. What's going on now?

[Alexis Afshar]

Every single YouTube video of mine is off the Internet.

[Unknown Host]

And you had tens of millions of views, right?

[Alexis Afshar]

So many millions and millions of views.

[Unknown Host]

Damn. So what? Exactly.

[Alexis Afshar]

I went to go, like, look and, like, be like, oh, look at my video. And I'm like, I can't find my video. Where is it searched? Search the Internet. It's nowhere to be found.

[Unknown Host]

How do you think they got in?

[Alexis Afshar]

This is where things get complicated because I had people working on it on my YouTube shorts and stuff like that. And I think when we transferred over to them, in between, something happened and it got hacked.

[Unknown Host]

Damn.

[Alexis Afshar]

There's no way. I. I can't get it back yet.

[Unknown Host]

No, you'll get it back.

[Alexis Afshar]

We're working. We're working it.

[Unknown Host]

Is your tick tock still up or are you banned there?

[Alexis Afshar]

Tick Tock. I'm on my. I'm on my fifth tick tock. We're getting up to 6k followers.

[Unknown Host]

Let's go.

[Alexis Afshar]

Let's go. You know what? I really like going live on TikTok.

[Unknown Host]

Why?

[Alexis Afshar]

You just. I don't know. People get to know you. Like, more like they're getting to know me and they're crossing over to Instagram and I can see, like, it's just a crossover. I don't know. I'm getting more of a fan base, a following from, like, me as a person, not like the twerking or like something that they found on Instagram.

[Unknown Host]

You know, I feel that.

[Alexis Afshar]

So it's pretty cool.

[Unknown Host]

Why'd you get banned on other accounts?

[Alexis Afshar]

It was very random stuff. Like, it didn't even make sense to me.

[Unknown Host]

Twerking, you know?

[Alexis Afshar]

No, actually, that's like the last thing I get banned for. One time. You're not allowed to tick tock in the car. I didn't know that.

[Unknown Host]

Oh, really?

[Alexis Afshar]

Yeah. You can't even be in the back of an Uber and live stream.

[Unknown Host]

Oh, wow.

[Alexis Afshar]

Like live streaming at least. Yeah, Live stream. Like rules that they don't tell you until you're. You get strikes or whatever.

[Unknown Host]

I would have never known that.

[Alexis Afshar]

Yeah. Don't go on an Uber live streaming.

[Unknown Host]

So something must. Someone must have.

[Alexis Afshar]

It's weird, right?

[Unknown Host]

Gotten an accident or something and then sued. Tick tock.

[Alexis Afshar]

Yeah.

[Unknown Host]

Damn, that's wild.

[Alexis Afshar]

But, yeah, these social. Social medias have been really rough recently. A lot of engagements gone down for me and a lot of my friends as well. I've realized talking to other people. I started doing more ads, like, putting. Spending money. I'm like, do they just want you to spend some money? Because I don't normally do that unless I'm not a single or like a record. Then I'll start putting money in it. But I'm not, you know.

[Unknown Host]

Yeah.

[Alexis Afshar]

And I'm like, I wonder if this will, like, kickstart it a little. So we're trying. And seeing the engagement's gone up. Obviously it has to go up, but we're seeing what. What the vibes are.

[Unknown Host]

Well, we're at the point now where you kind of have to. Because they throttle your reach so much.

[Alexis Afshar]

What?

[Unknown Host]

Like Instagram will only show your post to, like, 2% of your followers.

[Alexis Afshar]

Even Facebook. I posted something on Facebook. I have almost 3 million followers. It said that 40 people saw my post.

[Unknown Host]

Wow.

[Alexis Afshar]

That is absurd. 30. 40 people out of 3 million is. Something's wrong. Like, that's not normal.

[Unknown Host]

Maybe you're shadow banned or something, too?

[Alexis Afshar]

Yeah, I'm the Shadow band queen. I am the shadow band queen.

[Unknown Host]

Have you been posting a lot of politics?

[Alexis Afshar]

You know, I try not to. It just really gets me every day, though, like, fucking battle. Do I do it or not? Because I know that there's a possibility that it will get flagged. The last time I posted Donald Trump with his hand going up, just a picture of it, like a painting or whatever, it said false advertisement.

[Unknown Host]

Wow.

[Alexis Afshar]

Oh. Completely put a ban on my account for I don't know how long I'm in. I think till like, April next year. Hold on.

[Unknown Host]

That long?

[Alexis Afshar]

Yeah.

[Unknown Host]

Yeah.

[Alexis Afshar]

When I post, you not play.

[Unknown Host]

When I posted even Trump Jr. Not even Trump, I got shot a band. Like, my views are down 80%.

[Alexis Afshar]

This is bad. And we talked about this on the last time I was here. This is the second time now. The last time we talked about how it was bad and now it's getting worse.

[Unknown Host]

It's scary because, yeah, it's affecting our livelihood, honestly, you know, what do we do, y'all? I missed the days. I missed the days of getting solutions. Yeah. For real.

[Alexis Afshar]

Just millions of freedom of speech. Twitter's, which. Twitter's still cool, though. You know, we can say what we want on Twitter. Kind of. It's not as bad as bad. They still have community notes or whatever, which I think are absolute bull still.

[Unknown Host]

But you don't. You don't agree with those.

[Alexis Afshar]

No, a lot of them are still false. It's just like, why put. I don't know.

[Unknown Host]

Yeah. I wonder how they determine what's called.

[Alexis Afshar]

Community notes or whatever.

[Unknown Host]

I know you're talking about certain tweets have them on there.

[Alexis Afshar]

Like, this is the real thing. You don't know. Like, who's even saying it. Like, fact checked. Who. Who fact checked this.

[Unknown Host]

You just went on Fousey's live stream.

[Unknown Host]

Because you've known him for a while, right?

[Alexis Afshar]

I've known him for a long time and we've, I've dated his best friend. I said, look, we're friends. Like we could be friends. We're cool. That's about it.

[Unknown Host]

Damn. So you put him in.

[Alexis Afshar]

I don't know how he saw like a switch or when or whatever, but no, it's not gonna happen.

[Unknown Host]

It's tough for guys and girls to be friends.

[Alexis Afshar]

I think I asked him if he had any friends that like were girls like in that space. He's like, no, not like that he hadn't messed with. He's like, I'm like, you guys can't have girlfriends like at all that you guys haven't messed with. That kind of blows my mind.

[Unknown Host]

I can't, you know, just being honest, I can't.

[Alexis Afshar]

Damn.

[Unknown Host]

I've made girls.

[Alexis Afshar]

I understand there's a chemistry, a sexual tension thing. I get that. But I also have friends that like I've been friends with for so long and I don't know, I think you, yeah, maybe you have to put up a boundary and just really not think about crossing that line and it just naturally doesn't happen.

[Unknown Host]

I've made a few girls on the show call their best friend that are guys and asked them if they want to hook up. What do you think they said? I've done it a few times.

[Alexis Afshar]

Huh. See? Yeah. No, no, no, no. They thousand percent will.

[Unknown Host]

That's what I'm saying.

[Alexis Afshar]

There's no doubt about it. The thing is you got to just put the boundary there and not. You know what, that really upsets me though because like I have like two or three solid homie friends. It's just like my friends. And if you want to think about them wanting to bang me at all. No, you are my friend. I need you there as my friend.

[Unknown Host]

But do they know they're in the friend zone or.

[Alexis Afshar]

Yeah, they know. You don't. I mean if your friends that long, I don't think you have to like say something. I think obviously Fousey could have gotten the hint.

[Unknown Host]

Yeah.

[Alexis Afshar]

It hasn't happened yet. After how many years? What makes you think suddenly there's going to be like a switch?

[Unknown Host]

Some people be waiting, man.

[Alexis Afshar]

You know, the long game.

[Unknown Host]

The long game, that's way too long.

[Alexis Afshar]

Give up, honey.

[Unknown Host]

They wait till you're fresh out of relationship and your feels, you know, fresh.

[Alexis Afshar]

Out and vulnerable Dating. These men are fucking vulnerable.

[Unknown Host]

Yeah. I mean out Here they are. I heard people in general. LA's tough.

[Alexis Afshar]

Listen, date. I'm not gonna lie. Dating is really rough. And if you know me, you know this. Come on. My music is all about me. Crying about it. But, like, I started kind of talking to somebody recently.

[Unknown Host]

Okay.

[Alexis Afshar]

And Fousey got upset because I told him, like, he's like, well, why would you go out and hang out with me if you like somebody? I'm like, bro, we're hanging out, like, as friends. That's it. Like, this is what it was. Anyways, this guy is a. He was a fan of mine and I've never in my life, ever, ever, ever dated like a fan. So this is a very new, different situation like, situation for me scenario.

[Unknown Host]

That is interesting. Yeah.

[Alexis Afshar]

I don't know if we met in.

[Unknown Host]

Person too, and he told you he was a fan?

[Alexis Afshar]

Yeah, absolutely. Off the back, like, very clear.

[Unknown Host]

And that didn't turn you off?

[Alexis Afshar]

At first I was like, yeah, for a second. But the chemistry was.

[Unknown Host]

You saw past it.

[Alexis Afshar]

Yeah. Yeah.

[Unknown Host]

Interesting.

[Alexis Afshar]

And it's. It's really new. So I don't know.

[Unknown Host]

We'll see how it goes. Shout out to this.

[Alexis Afshar]

Updated the industry. And it's rough, you know, to date people in the industry. But then I also see that there's going to be some challenges that might face because he's not in the industry. So you don't understand certain things. I get that. So there's going to be a struggle. Probably.

[Unknown Host]

I think a lot of guys are probably intimidated to date you because of.

[Alexis Afshar]

All the success and people automatically think I'm a cheater. I think. Really, I've realized that recently.

[Unknown Host]

Huh.

[Alexis Afshar]

Why do you think they don't like that at all?

[Unknown Host]

I mean, why would they assume that?

[Alexis Afshar]

Because I just know everybody and I'm like. They think because I know these, like, celebrity guys and blah, blah, blah, like, I'm just gonna cheat, go for somebody better, different. I don't know. That's not fair, though. That's really up.

[Unknown Host]

Yeah, I. I guess it's more common in the celebrity culture to cheat. So they just assume. Right.

[Alexis Afshar]

I would more so think the guy, though.

[Unknown Host]

The guy. Oh, we talked about this last episode. You said guys cheat more. Yeah. That's way too high.

[Alexis Afshar]

Hell no, it ain't. 85% of the guys in the industry cheat, period.

[Unknown Host]

Okay. In your industry. Yeah. But you said 85 of guys.

[Alexis Afshar]

I did say guys, but then I did change it. I changed it. I said industry.

[Unknown Host]

Okay. I still think women cheat more overall.

[Alexis Afshar]

That's crazy.

[Unknown Host]

We'd have to see some data on it.

[Alexis Afshar]

But that is really crazy. I mean, I don't believe that at all.

[Unknown Host]

Really. I don't know.

[Alexis Afshar]

Can we get a round of hands? A round of hands?

[Unknown Host]

Yeah. We got some guys watching this right now.

[Alexis Afshar]

Give me a percent.

[Unknown Host]

All right. Out of the three guys watching this, have you guys been cheated on? Yes. One yes, one no. So two yes and one no.

[Alexis Afshar]

Name a guy that hasn't cheated. Do you have a friend that has never cheated? A boyfriend? A guy friend?

[Unknown Host]

Yeah. Shout out to Elon.

[Alexis Afshar]

Elon Musk.

[Unknown Host]

No, Elon Musk. Definitely.

[Alexis Afshar]

He's cheating with robots and, I don't know, everything in between.

[Unknown Host]

Yeah, he's probably.

No, I'm not a cheater. I'm a loyal girl. Love, love, love.

[Unknown Host]

So what's your definition of cheating, then?

[Alexis Afshar]

Like emotionally cheating? Like, if you're texting a girl every day or something like that. That's crazy.

[Unknown Host]

So that's cheating you?

[Alexis Afshar]

Yeah.

[Unknown Host]

And you've never done that?

[Alexis Afshar]

No.

[Unknown Host]

Wow. Yeah. Some people have different definitions. Some people just physically.

[Unknown Host]

Most guys would. Yeah, I think that way they could be texting a.

[Alexis Afshar]

Every day. Good morning, good night. Like you cheaters.

[Unknown Host]

I feel that, though.

[Alexis Afshar]

I always say that, like, guys texting guys. You shouldn't. I'm giving this advice to the girls that follow me. Like, don't fall for the text messaging because guys are like the President of the United States. And text message. Like, they will. They could be anything in text message. You know what I mean? And they will tell you whatever you need to know. So. Honey, get him on FaceTime. You like FaceTiming?

[Unknown Host]

I'm not a FaceTimer.

[Alexis Afshar]

No, you text your girl?

[Unknown Host]

Yeah.

[Alexis Afshar]

What about phone calls?

[Unknown Host]

We do calls too.

[Alexis Afshar]

Yeah.

[Unknown Host]

I'm not a facetimer, though.

[Alexis Afshar]

Why?

[Unknown Host]

I don't know. I don't like looking at myself.

[Alexis Afshar]

You know, I don't like looking at myself.

[Unknown Host]

Like, even Zoom calls on Zoom calls because I do a lot of, like, business calls. I turn off the camera.

[Alexis Afshar]

Oh.

[Unknown Host]

You know, I don't know. It might be some insecurity from.

[Alexis Afshar]

Well, you're cute and we all work on the self confidence.

[Unknown Host]

I got bullied. I was thinking about this. This girl told me I was ugly in fifth grade.

[Alexis Afshar]

That stuck with you forever.

[Unknown Host]

Low key. Yeah, cuz we used to. Oovoo. Did you have Oovoo?

[Alexis Afshar]

Wait, why does that sound so familiar?

[Unknown Host]

It was like before Zoom, before Skype.

[Alexis Afshar]

Okay.

[Unknown Host]

But yeah, as soon as I turned the camera on, she said, you're ugly. And then, yeah, that me up.

[Alexis Afshar]

Nah, screw that. How dare you. We talked about this. Bullies. You can go to hell. Go to hell.

[Unknown Host]

We both got bullied and we're both got bullied. We're all right now. I think it helped me in the long run.

[Alexis Afshar]

You guys thought I was a bully. I go, I got bullied. The backgrounds. Like, we thought you were the bully.

[Unknown Host]

I thought you were.

[Alexis Afshar]

Hell no. This badass personality is because I got bullied.

[Unknown Host]

That's what I'm saying.

[Alexis Afshar]

Fuck with me.

[Unknown Host]

Helped us in the long run. At the time, it sucked for sure.

[Alexis Afshar]

Yeah. Don't be mean. Y'all don't be mean. There's a lot of bullies online.

[Unknown Host]

Have you been partying lately? Going to Diddy's house? Oh, my God, you've been to a Diddy party. I know you have.

[Alexis Afshar]

You know what? I've been to Diddy's house twice.

[Unknown Host]

For parties or just.

[Alexis Afshar]

I've known their sons for like a long time.

[Unknown Host]

Wow.

[Alexis Afshar]

Since they were younger, just in the scene and music stuff. So I've been over their house, just hanging once. That was fine. That was normal, casual. He wasn't around now. And then there was a party in Miami a couple years back I went to, but everything seemed normal and fine, you know, it wasn't like a crazy experience. The crazy experience that I did have though is I saw like an ex boyfriend of mine and I completely freaked out that he was there and I ran across the room. You know when your heart just sinks to your chest, like it just drops to your floor? I had that feeling. So I had to like, go across the room.

[Unknown Host]

Okay.

[Alexis Afshar]

I was wondering why he was there though. I didn't know that he was familiar with the people there.

[Unknown Host]

So that was the craziest thing. At a Diddy party that happened to you?

[Alexis Afshar]

Yeah, they wouldn't let me in the house because I guess I'm not their type.

[Unknown Host]

Oh, okay. Did you have to sign anything to go in to the party?

[Alexis Afshar]

God, there's so many different parties that you can't bring your phone and sign. I don't remember signing anything, though. Oh, but probably. I don't remember. I remember.

[Unknown Host]

But you've been to parties where you can't bring your phone in.

[Alexis Afshar]

Yeah, definitely. Yeah. Yeah. That's weird. Stupid.

[Unknown Host]

Yeah.

[Alexis Afshar]

Nothing crazy. Crazy, you know, goes down, but just some celebrities, they don't want. Usually the rapper boys, they don't want things going down and, you know.

[Unknown Host]

And how do you feel about rappers? You've dated some rappers, right?

[Alexis Afshar]

I don't go for the rappers. I did date one rapper. He was the one that was at the party. Oh, okay. Lord. And no, I don't date rappers because I know the lifestyle they live, and there's no way I'm living that type of lifestyle. I tend to go for the other ones, the athletes, the other bad ones.

[Unknown Host]

Well, athletes are pretty wild too, right?

[Alexis Afshar]

They're all. They're all bad. Hence why I'm dating a very normal, good fan of mine.

[Unknown Host]

What's his. What's his occupation? Does he have a job?

[Alexis Afshar]

Yeah, thankfully he has a job, honey. He does construction.

[Unknown Host]

Oh.

[Alexis Afshar]

And he likes to play soccer. So he teaches, like, kids to play soccer. Wow.

[Unknown Host]

You're taking a whole different approach. A little family man over there.

[Alexis Afshar]

Yeah, Daddy.

[Unknown Host]

I think that's too normal for you, though.

[Alexis Afshar]

No, I like it. I'm a very normal girl, too.

[Unknown Host]

Come on now.

[Alexis Afshar]

I have two different sides to me. Honestly. Yeah, I'd like to be on the farm, too.

[Unknown Host]

You do?

[Alexis Afshar]

Oh, yeah.

[Unknown Host]

Okay.

[Alexis Afshar]

I'm a. I'm a little tomboy at heart, but, like, you know, I like the girly things, but I like a normal guy. I need a normal guy to ground me. I mean, what else? What other option? Honestly? I'm not gonna have some crazy, like, industry guy. I feel that too much.

[Unknown Host]

Yeah, because you're traveling a lot. You're a nomad right now, right?

[Alexis Afshar]

Yeah, honestly. Yeah, this year is going to be traveling for me.

[Unknown Host]

And what made you decide to pack up from Miami?

[Alexis Afshar]

I'm not married. I don't have children. I'm spending too much in rent. I live by Coastal right now, LA and Miami. I'm like, let me just pack up both. And I want to see the World. I want to go and, like, dive into, like, Japan for a month and a half, and then Thailand and Bali and then I want to go to Switzerland and, you know, different places like that.

[Unknown Host]

Okay.

[Alexis Afshar]

Get into the culture.

[Unknown Host]

I feel that.

[Alexis Afshar]

But who knows what's going to happen after this election. Lord, I hope we're all safe and well and able to do these things, you know?

[Unknown Host]

Yeah. I'm starting to think of some backup passports to potentially get.

[Alexis Afshar]

I need to get married to somebody that has another pass. Like a visa somewhere else.

[Unknown Host]

Wouldn't be a bad idea.

[Alexis Afshar]

Italy.

[Unknown Host]

Italy, France.

[Alexis Afshar]

I feel like these are more of the safe places now. I don't know.

[Unknown Host]

Well, no, France just banned Telegram. CEO or something. Arrested him. Did you see that?

[Alexis Afshar]

Oh, is he still locked up?

[Unknown Host]

Yeah. Or he might have bailed out, but it's looking weird over there.

[Alexis Afshar]

I have a bone to pick with Telegram too.

[Unknown Host]

Really?

[Alexis Afshar]

Hell yeah.

[Unknown Host]

What they do to you.

[Alexis Afshar]

I mean, there's like Telegram groups of like 3,000 people selling my content.

[Unknown Host]

What?

[Alexis Afshar]

Yeah, it's crazy. It's bad. It's terrible.

[Unknown Host]

So they get your content and they sell it for cheaper than what you sell it for? Basically, yeah. Wow.

[Alexis Afshar]

I didn't know that was 3,000 more people in this group.

[Unknown Host]

Holy crap.

[Alexis Afshar]

I can't get in.

[Unknown Host]

I'm like, oh, they banned you?

[Alexis Afshar]

Yeah, like, I can't get in.

[Unknown Host]

No, no.

[Alexis Afshar]

I tried different ways. I don't even know how they're in this group, honestly. It's like fucking crypt. Cryptid code to get in this group.

[Unknown Host]

Oh, they must have went through your.

[Alexis Afshar]

I feel like they DM people, you know, and they're like, do you want this content? Like, they're probably hit up all my fans on my pages. I don't know. They put in work, honey. Like, work.

[Unknown Host]

Wow. Must be some guys in India Telegram.

[Alexis Afshar]

I mean, what are you gonna do? You can't do anything about it.

[Unknown Host]

Yeah.

[Alexis Afshar]

That's really bad.

[Unknown Host]

Yeah. I've never heard of someone getting banned on there, so you probably can't report them or anything.

[Alexis Afshar]

Oh, you can't do anything.

[Unknown Host]

Wow. Does that happen to all the creators of Creators?

[Alexis Afshar]

Oh, I'm sure now. Yeah. There's a couple of girls that are in the group. Like, they'll pair us with a couple different girls so it fucks with our money.

[Unknown Host]

Damn. Are you still pretty active on Off?

[Alexis Afshar]

Yeah, very active on OnlyFans? Yeah.

[Unknown Host]

Nice.

[Alexis Afshar]

I'm actually creating. I created a label, Lex Luthor Records, to service girls like me that have OnlyFans that have budgets that come over to Me and I can help guide them from top to bottom. Like maybe they want to learn how to dj. They want to be a DJ or they want to be an artist. Like I'll actually develop them and turn them into what they kind of want and create their projects and then release and market them.

[Unknown Host]

Wow.

[Alexis Afshar]

Because a lot of girls aren't like, they won't work with a lot of girls like us that are edgier or on only fans and stuff like that. A lot of doors are closed. And so I've been in the industry for so long, I mean over 15 years now, the music industry. So I know a lot of people and ways and around things, you know. So I kind of want to build out like a community for us that it's a safe way and easier path. So I can just be like, don't do this. Don't like, because I've been through it, you know.

[Unknown Host]

Yeah. We talked about this last episode, how you were kind of blackballed by the music industry.

[Alexis Afshar]

Right, Right. There are certain places it's just like.

[Unknown Host]

But you probably wouldn't get invited to Rolling Loud, right?

[Alexis Afshar]

Yeah, Rolling Loud. Jesus.

[Unknown Host]

Because they're too corporate now.

[Alexis Afshar]

That too. And I've, I've messaged them, I've talked to them. Geez, I tried to perform there multiple times. For some reason they just. Well, I don't know.

[Unknown Host]

Well, they're too corporate because they got bought out by someone big.

[Alexis Afshar]

Someone just offered like, oh, pay $15,000 to be enrolling. Loud. I said, go fuck yourself.

[Unknown Host]

You have to pay them.

[Alexis Afshar]

I think now you have to pay. Wow. Some people are they. I just got offered this, but not by them, but by somebody else that was like, hey, I have this opportunity. And I was like, I've never heard of that before.

[Unknown Host]

Yeah, it could be a middleman, could be a scam.

[Alexis Afshar]

It could be a scam too. Yeah, you never know. I don't know.

[Unknown Host]

That's rough.

[Alexis Afshar]

But who knows? I mean, yeah, people buy on tours and things like this is normal in the industry also, you know. But the struggle with the of girls is like, you know, radios like teams won't play your songs because you have an of like I've dealt with a lot of the El Arabia situation, them taking me off of the COVID things like this. It's like, wow, we still have to deal with this. But it's okay for like girls like huge that are like with labels, they can have an only fans and not. No one says anything about it. It's totally fine. But someone like us, an independent Artist. We can't get a label because we have an OnlyFans. It's like, absurd.

[Unknown Host]

Yeah. That sucks. Damn. But you're still.

[Alexis Afshar]

We're pushing, honey. We. All we do is open doors and make our own path. Yeah.

[Unknown Host]

You just performed that Fashion Week. You're still getting some gigs, right?

[Alexis Afshar]

Yeah, of course. Yeah. Yeah.

[Unknown Host]

That's cool.

[Alexis Afshar]

It's going really great right now. New York is a vibe.

[Unknown Host]

Yeah. You might move there, right?

[Alexis Afshar]

Yeah. Yep, yep, yep. It's a vibe. Music is just. It's a good music hub. It's active. People are working.

[Unknown Host]

Mmm.

[Alexis Afshar]

I feel like people are working in the streets. People here work in their homes. They're so boring. Everyone in Los Angeles is so fucking boring. Where is everybody?

[Unknown Host]

Good question.

[Alexis Afshar]

They're just in their homes, like on the computer.

[Unknown Host]

Yeah. The streamers these days.

[Alexis Afshar]

Boring.

[Unknown Host]

Yeah. I feel like the celebrities these days are just, like, streamers and, like, people on their phone.

[Alexis Afshar]

Streamers are not. They're bad in their own way, let me tell you. Really bad. Because it's just so exhausting. But, like, at least they're doing something. They're out there being fun and doing things.

[Unknown Host]

Yeah.

[Alexis Afshar]

People are just kind of like, not doing things, I think.

[Unknown Host]

Technology.

[Alexis Afshar]

What do you do for fun?

[Unknown Host]

Fortnite, Basketball, video games. Old movies. I don't like the new ones.

[Alexis Afshar]

I just went to the movies yesterday for the first time in forever.

[Unknown Host]

That's what I mean. I don't like Beetlejuice. Oh. How was it?

[Alexis Afshar]

It was okay.

[Unknown Host]

That's what I heard.

[Alexis Afshar]

Wasn't my favorite.

[Unknown Host]

Yeah. Which is a shame. Jenna Ortega.

[Alexis Afshar]

Yeah.

[Unknown Host]

You would have thought she could carry it.

[Alexis Afshar]

It was because I picked, though, the one where you lay down and eat your food.

[Unknown Host]

Oh, the full recline.

[Alexis Afshar]

Yeah.

[Unknown Host]

Yeah. Modern movies don't hit, though. I know you're not. You're acting a bit too, right? Yeah.

[Alexis Afshar]

I want to get more heavy into it. I just did an independent film, actually.

[Unknown Host]

Okay.

[Alexis Afshar]

It's like a faith based scary movie.

[Unknown Host]

Whoa.

[Alexis Afshar]

Yeah.

[Unknown Host]

Faith based.

[Alexis Afshar]

Yeah. It's interesting.

[Unknown Host]

That is interesting. For you.

[Alexis Afshar]

So. Yeah. For me especially. So. It's coming. It's coming. Just wait for it. Yeah. Acting. I love acting. I just. I realize that older. The older I get. I love to act. So we'll see. I'll tap more into it. I need an agent, though.

[Unknown Host]

You do? All right. If you're watching this, guys.

[Alexis Afshar]

Yeah. I need an acting agent.

[Unknown Host]

Sign this woman. Acting's coming to Vegas.

[Alexis Afshar]

What do you mean?

[Unknown Host]

We just got Mark Wahlberg moved over. There's a studio being built oh, my gosh.

[Alexis Afshar]

Congrats.

[Unknown Host]

Yes. You might have to move to Vegas, too.

[Alexis Afshar]

No.

[Unknown Host]

You don't like Vegas?

[Alexis Afshar]

No.

[Unknown Host]

What?

[Alexis Afshar]

You will not catch me.

[Unknown Host]

Why? There's no way Vegas is lit.

[Alexis Afshar]

What? No way. A desert? Oh, gosh. This literally the last place I would ever move to.

[Unknown Host]

Wow.

[Alexis Afshar]

Is the desert really? No ocean, no water. Like, no trees? No way.

[Unknown Host]

So you like nature?

[Alexis Afshar]

Yeah. How do you survive over there?

[Unknown Host]

Not nature.

[Alexis Afshar]

You don't like nature? You're not.

[Unknown Host]

No, I like nature, but I have to travel so I can get my nature fix in Vegas.

[Alexis Afshar]

The only thing I would like about Vegas is the fact that, like, our friends come and go. You know, we have people in and out all the time, which. That's why I liked New York and Miami. Yeah, that's fine. But no, I'll come in and out and visit once in a while.

[Unknown Host]

Filled up. I went through some of your tweets. These were interesting.

[Alexis Afshar]

Oh. Oh.

[Unknown Host]

You ate a tuna sandwich at a donut shop. That sounds gross.

[Alexis Afshar]

I know. It's the best tuna sandwich ever.

[Unknown Host]

What?

[Alexis Afshar]

It's so good. I grew up next to a donut shop since, like, little. And now I still go the corner donut shop, Birmingham High School in the Valley. They make the best tuna sandwiches. And then I randomly went to a random donut shop. I was like, I'm gonna trust this. And I went to another Valley donut shop because Valley donut shops are the best. And it fucking hit so good.

[Unknown Host]

What?

[Alexis Afshar]

I was like, give me the tuna sandwich. They're like, okay. They're known for it. I swear. It's like, a thing.

[Unknown Host]

Oh, my gosh.

[Alexis Afshar]

It's a thing.

[Unknown Host]

I'm nauseous thinking about it.

[Alexis Afshar]

No one's had one?

[Unknown Host]

Hell, no. No One here has had one because.

[Alexis Afshar]

You guys aren't real Valley Los Angeles people. It's fine.

[Unknown Host]

Well, we'll go there one of these days and film it. I'll try it. But expectations are not high.

[Alexis Afshar]

It's like your mom. Like, if your mom was gonna make one. And they lit, like, in the kitchen. It's very basic. It's very simple ingredient.

[Unknown Host]

We'll give it a try.

[Alexis Afshar]

It might be, like, a canned tuna.

[Unknown Host]

I eat some weird. I ate camel.

[Alexis Afshar]

It's for sure. Can't.

[Unknown Host]

I ate camel yesterday.

[Alexis Afshar]

Are you serious?

[Unknown Host]

Yeah, camel jerky.

[Alexis Afshar]

And here.

[Unknown Host]

It was on the way here because I drove here from Vegas. Some jerky store had it.

[Alexis Afshar]

I always have those random jerky stores on the way to, like, Vegas.

[Unknown Host]

Yeah, they do. There was a couple, actually. I stopped that.

[Alexis Afshar]

Wait but why did you get the camel one?

[Unknown Host]

They had camel, they had turtle, they had. They had shark, they had.

[Alexis Afshar]

Illegal.

[Unknown Host]

I thought it was illegal. I don't know. Seemed legit. Turtle, Soft shelter or snapping turtle. Yeah, they ran out of that one, though. They had rabbit. They ran out of rabbit.

[Alexis Afshar]

No. How did it taste?

[Unknown Host]

Really good.

[Alexis Afshar]

Like, what did you tell.

[Unknown Host]

No. If I didn't tell you it was camel, you would have thought it was, like, beef or.

[Alexis Afshar]

I can't eat any weird meats at all. Very, very basic. I don't even eat lamb.

[Unknown Host]

What?

[Alexis Afshar]

No.

[Unknown Host]

Lamb is good.

[Alexis Afshar]

No, No, I can't.

[Unknown Host]

Goat.

[Alexis Afshar]

No, no, no, no. Poor billy goat.

[Unknown Host]

Veal.

[Alexis Afshar]

No. Oh, wait. Is veo. Baby.

[Unknown Host]

Baby cow. Yeah.

[Alexis Afshar]

I eat a little beer. Barely. Barely, though.

[Unknown Host]

So you stick the chicken?

[Alexis Afshar]

Hell, yeah. But I have Crohn's disease, too, so, like, all the other meats is not.

[Unknown Host]

Like, oh, it doesn't.

[Alexis Afshar]

I can't. Yeah. I can't do all that. The extra. No, I feel that the turkey, the chicken, and salmon is, like, good for me.

[Unknown Host]

You're looking a lot better. I remember the Crohn's. You talked about it last year and you were struggling with it, but majorly.

[Alexis Afshar]

Yeah, no, I've healed. Shout out to Jane Johnson. He's an amazing doctor and healer.

[Unknown Host]

You got him on my show.

[Alexis Afshar]

Yeah. How did that go?

[Unknown Host]

Dude? I almost cried. His story is inspirational.

[Alexis Afshar]

He's changed my. My whole life. I owe him so much.

[Unknown Host]

Yeah, Shout out to him, man. Yeah. What he overcame was, wow.

[Alexis Afshar]

He's healing a lot of people. And it's just crazy because so many people have IBS and Crohn's disease, and you don't know or they don't even know. And they are dealing with crazy symptoms, and I just. I feel for them.

[Unknown Host]

Damn.

[Alexis Afshar]

So when I meet someone, I'm like, wow, let me help you. I call Dana up, like, automatically.

[Unknown Host]

I love that. That's how I feel with Charlie.

[Alexis Afshar]

Rocket was the one who introduced us.

[Unknown Host]

Oh, yeah. So he had it, too.

[Alexis Afshar]

No, I called Charlie. I'm like, charlie, you have to know somebody. Like, I'm dying. He's like, oh, my God. I have the perfect person. Oh, my God, Charlie, you're a lifesaver. Obviously, he had somebody. And. Yeah, that's when Dane. I called Dane crying, devastated. In the studio. I couldn't even record. Yeah.

[Unknown Host]

Oh, your voice. Was that.

[Alexis Afshar]

No, my stomach. I was just, like, done for.

[Unknown Host]

Holy crap.

[Alexis Afshar]

Yeah. It takes over your whole body, everything.

[Unknown Host]

So what did you have to do to fix it?

[Alexis Afshar]

He put me on A liquid diet for two. Two weeks. Elemental shake. An amazing shake. Anybody should try it. It gives your gut. It's already digested, so it gives your gut a chance to not do anything for two weeks. So it, you know, rehabilitated or whatever you call it. And then I started doing, like, an elimination diet almost.

[Unknown Host]

Nice.

[Alexis Afshar]

Started adding things to the shake. And then I started eating what I was supposed to be eating.

[Unknown Host]

There we go. So now you can eat.

[Alexis Afshar]

Yeah. I mean, I fuck up, like, if I'm like, I definitely eat things I am not supposed to eat, but I'll know, you know, I know if I'm messing up and I know what to do to get myself back on track. And it's a process. It's a learning process. But the most important things is our body. And we don't even know how to handle or heal or put. What do we put in our bodies? So it's important to pay attention.

[Unknown Host]

Yeah. I've gone on a math massive health shift lately, too.

[Alexis Afshar]

Why?

[Unknown Host]

Similar to you. I just felt like crap.

[Alexis Afshar]

Really? Yeah.

[Unknown Host]

Because when you're young, you could get away with it. I feel like. Like fast food and stuff. But for sure, you start feeling it after school.

[Alexis Afshar]

Chips and.

[Unknown Host]

Oh, I used to eat four bags of chips a day.

[Alexis Afshar]

My sister's still eating Takis. I'm like, oh, I cannot eat those anymore.

[Unknown Host]

The ones from Costco, right?

[Alexis Afshar]

You got to get rid of them.

[Unknown Host]

Yeah, I used to pound those.

[Alexis Afshar]

Oh, I could only imagine. No way. When I have children. I'm so sorry. It's not happening.

[Unknown Host]

Yeah. I'm not giving them chips. I used to. My lunch in high school was four bags of chips. Flaming hot Cheetos. Yeah, I got bullied for that. Funyuns. Sun chips.

[Alexis Afshar]

Cool kid. Actually. They wanted your chips.

[Unknown Host]

They were low key. Jealous.

[Alexis Afshar]

You got money?

[Unknown Host]

Nah. They sold them in the cafeteria. They were like 50 cents each back then.

[Alexis Afshar]

Damn. My mom never did the chip thing.

[Unknown Host]

What?

[Alexis Afshar]

Because it was too expensive.

[Unknown Host]

Really?

[Alexis Afshar]

I feel like they were too much. Oh, damn. We would have. You know what? This is crazy. We have to go. We had to go to. I don't even know what they're called anymore. What are they called?

[Unknown Host]

Kitchen or whatever. Soup kitchen.

[Alexis Afshar]

Food.

[Unknown Host]

Food shelter.

[Alexis Afshar]

Yeah, like a food shelter. There's something different. But we used to go to those, and my mom would get groceries from them. And we used to love it because, like, we knew that we would actually get all the things that we would never get because all the rich people would give us the groceries. Right. So you would have, like, things like gushers and like, you know, the over expensive things.

[Unknown Host]

Damn.

[Alexis Afshar]

And we would be, like, grateful. We would be excited to go.

[Unknown Host]

Humble beginnings. I didn't know that about you.

[Alexis Afshar]

Yeah.

[Unknown Host]

Wow. Look at you now.

[Alexis Afshar]

Some humble beginnings. Look at me now, suckers. I always give back, though. I go. I go back to Sacramento. I grew up in Sacramento, Oak Park. And yeah, I love going back during Christmas time, buying a bunch of toys and like, you know, passing them out.

[Unknown Host]

That's cool.

[Alexis Afshar]

Yeah. It melts my heart.

[Unknown Host]

Yeah, it's. It's crazy how just like five bucks can change someone's life like that. Yeah.

[Alexis Afshar]

Christmas is coming up. I'm excited. We'll see.

[Unknown Host]

Yeah. I need to figure out how to get back in Vegas. How do you find all the kids?

[Alexis Afshar]

They're just out there.

[Unknown Host]

Yeah.

[Alexis Afshar]

In the streets.

[Unknown Host]

Oh.

[Alexis Afshar]

When you go up in the hood, they just, like hang out outside, you know, Go find them, or their parents will just be coming by and then they'll go grab their parents, or they'll be like, let me go get my family. And they go grab their family.

[Unknown Host]

Wow.

[Alexis Afshar]

Down. And they'll go grab the toys and stuff.

[Unknown Host]

Because a couple Christmas ago, I'll just.

[Alexis Afshar]

Be out, like on the streets with like a sign.

[Unknown Host]

Really?

[Alexis Afshar]

Yeah.

[Unknown Host]

A couple Christmases ago in Vegas, I made a bunch of sandwiches. And the thing is, though, you can't go where the homeless are in Vegas. They'll kill you.

[Alexis Afshar]

Oh, it's aggressive.

[Unknown Host]

Underground. Underground, where there's a name for it.

[Alexis Afshar]

They're actually underground.

[Unknown Host]

Yeah, they made a documentary about it. But yeah, if you're not homeless and you go in there, they'll kill you. And I just left them at the front.

[Alexis Afshar]

You gotta act homeless. You gotta walk in with like a limp or something.

[Unknown Host]

You have to be with someone that.

[Alexis Afshar]

Lives like, I'm homeless, y'all. You gotta act all, like, dirty or like, what is it? How do they know if you're homeless or not?

[Unknown Host]

You have to be with someone. They got a vouch for you.

[Alexis Afshar]

That's us. A gang.

[Unknown Host]

It's a system. Yeah. And there's a whole hierarchy down there.

[Alexis Afshar]

Like, how much money you got? You're too rich. We're killing you.

[Unknown Host]

Yeah. It's different out there. It's easier out here.

[Alexis Afshar]

Come on, guys, get it together. We don't need to be killing people, homeless or not. Lord. Jeez. Get it together.

[Unknown Host]

Yeah. For real.

[Alexis Afshar]

No one's getting sandwiches down there if you're killing people.

[Unknown Host]

No. I didn't see the risk to reward ratio there.

[Alexis Afshar]

No. We got to find the Kids. The kids are the ones that need the help.

[Unknown Host]

Yeah, it's rough. Kids and dogs have my. Have my heart. I'm big on dogs. I would have, like, 20 dogs if I could.

[Alexis Afshar]

Me too, but we travel. We can't. Yeah, I'd have another golden doodle. Thousand percent.

[Unknown Host]

You got a golden dude.

[Alexis Afshar]

Oh, God. They're the best dogs ever. This dog is incredible. I don't deserve him at all. Damn, he's incredible. Yeah. I can't believe it. What kind of dog do you have?

[Unknown Host]

Golden retriever. Bernie's mountain dog.

[Alexis Afshar]

Oh, so yours is amazing, I'm sure.

[Unknown Host]

Yeah.

[Alexis Afshar]

Damn.

[Unknown Host]

Golden retrievers are so pure. I'll see him tonight. Love you. Milo and Otis, if you're watching this.

[Alexis Afshar]

Wait, are you going back home tonight?

[Unknown Host]

Yeah, after this.

[Alexis Afshar]

Okay.

[Unknown Host]

Taking the drive.

[Alexis Afshar]

Okay. Yeah.

[Unknown Host]

Hopefully no traffic.

[Alexis Afshar]

No more beef jerky? No, I'm still turkey.

[Unknown Host]

I'm going to. I'm getting some ostrich on the way home. And elk.

[Alexis Afshar]

That's crazy.

[Unknown Host]

Yeah.

[Alexis Afshar]

I'd like to know which one tastes better, though. Out of all the crazy things.

[Unknown Host]

I'll give you some alligator jerky. That one's interesting.

[Alexis Afshar]

That has to fuck my stomach up now, swallowing an alligator. There's no way. My doctors would be like, you ate alligator. What do you expect?

[Unknown Host]

Oh, man. Alexis, what is next for you? Where can people find you?

[Alexis Afshar]

Oh, guys, I'm on a mission. I don't know what I'm doing, but I'm doing something. Music, Music, music album. I have a crazy music video dropping in November. I'm really excited about it. I kind of have, like, a rebrand with new music, new name. Because I've learned that sometimes you might have to do that when you have a name that's been around for a minute or, like, the stigma that's attached to it. Something in business, I've learned. So I might do some sort of rebranding.

[Unknown Host]

Okay.

[Alexis Afshar]

Or people are like, layla, who's that? And then they find out it's me.

[Unknown Host]

You know, keep them thinking.

[Alexis Afshar]

Yeah. So we'll see. We'll see. So I'm gonna do that. So keep an eye out for my music.

[Unknown Host]

All right, we'll link it below. Thanks for coming.

[Alexis Afshar]

My new YouTube channel that we're gonna figure out where it's at.

[Unknown Host]

Hopefully it's back by the time this airs.

[Alexis Afshar]

That's where the YouTube video will be.

[Unknown Host]

All right, we'll link below. Thanks for watching, guys. See you next time.
