Alex Cooper's Call Her Daddy Empire: Viral Moments, Fresh Controversies, and a $125M Deal
05 Nov 2025
Alex Cooper BioSnap a weekly updated Biography.Alex Cooper has dominated headlines this week as her Call Her Daddy empire continues to generate viral moments and stir both nostalgia and fresh controversy. On November 5, SiriusXM spotlighted global podcast powerhouse Alex Cooper hosting Taylor Momsen in an in-depth Call Her Daddy interview, where Momsen bared all about her transition from child stardom to fronting The Pretty Reckless, detailing high-profile struggles and deep personal loss. The show remains among the world’s most-listened-to podcasts under Cooper’s executive production, a testament to her enduring cultural pull, as further amplified by her massive $125 million SiriusXM deal inked last year and an exclusive feature on the streaming platform. Meanwhile, fresh attention has surged around Alex’s turbulent history with former cohost Sofia Franklyn following the release of Cooper’s recent docuseries Call Her Alex on Hulu, which premiered its first episode to voracious Daddy Gang curiosity. As reported by AOL and People, Cooper’s on-screen reflections have revived public debate about her breakup with Franklyn, dramatically recounting their early days at Barstool Sports, the infamous negotiation fallout, and the ultimate decision that led Cooper to sole ownership of the brand and eventual media deals worth staggering sums. Cooper recounts in the docuseries that she chose to take the Barstool deal when offered intellectual property rights to Call Her Daddy, underscoring that the movement was "bigger than both of us" and pushing her to become a solo podcasting force. Barstool’s Dave Portnoy made a cameo in the docuseries to weigh in on the financial stakes and behind-the-scenes wranglings, giving the saga extra media heat. Franklyn, for her part, reacted with social media posts and podcast commentaries, framing herself as ready to “crawl out” from her public persona shaped by that tumult and emphasizing her multidimensionality beyond the ditzy-sexual archetype that made her famous. Among the social media chatter, Franklyn’s comments have refueled speculation about the real reasons behind the split, but major outlets like Rolling Stone and People provide only the participants’ self-described motives—no new bombshells have emerged.In her personal life, Alex Cooper remains happily married to Hollywood producer Matt Kaplan, whom she credits with transforming her worldview and her opinions on relationships, as detailed in a recent AOL feature. No significant business ventures or public scandals beyond her ongoing podcast, interviews, and documentary promotion have emerged in the past few days, but Cooper’s relentless relevance—bolstered by major media partnerships and a signature blend of candor and controversy—shows no signs of waning.Get the best deals https://amzn.to/3ODvOtaThis content was created in partnership and with the help of Artificial Intelligence AI
