In case you missed it, Zac Efron is now on YouTube.

He isn't the first high-profile performer to have his own channel: Jack Black and Will Smith have their own channels as well. And all three men's channels are now facing criticism, but not because of anything the actors have done.

Others also weighed in.






YouTube has not responded to requests for comment.

Iranian state media and health officials said the strike occurred early Saturday morning in Minab, in the country’s southern Hormozgan Province.

Model Accuses Fashion Brand Of Using AI To Recreate Her Looks For Ad Instead Of Hiring Her
