He described how Cooper attempted to interview O'Malley in 2024 regarding her fallout with LaPaglia. Portnoy advised Cooper against conducting the interview alone due to criticism directed at LaPaglia from social media users. Portnoy suggested that Cooper interview both O'Malley and LaPaglia, but O'Malley refused, leading to the cancellation of the interview.
Additionally, Cooper signed O'Malley's podcast, Disgraceful, to her Unwell Network. Portnoy, who described himself as a fan of both Cooper and LaPaglia as well as Alix Earle, said LaPaglia's dislike of Cooper stems from the handling of the O'Malley situation and Unwell Network. On Tuesday, Cooper called out LaPaglia on Instagram for referring to her as a mean girl.
LaPaglia defended Earle against Cooper on Instagram Stories, stating that Earle described Cooper as a very mean person. Cooper also posted a TikTok rant on Monday, urging Earle to address her grievances directly instead of using passive-aggressive reposts. Earle acknowledged Cooper's video but has not yet aired her grievances publicly.
