Allday vs ALLDAY PROJECT? Aussie rapper threatens 'major legal battle' against K-pop's new co-ed group; receives hate
Co-ed K-pop group ALLDAY PROJECT is once again embroiled in controversy—this time, just days after their official debut on June 23, 2025. The group is drawing attention due to a potential legal battle with Australian rapper Allday, who claims ownership of the trademark for the name.
The situation erupted after Allday shared a screenshot of an article featuring ALLDAY PROJECT on his Instagram. In the caption, he expressed clear frustration over the group's use of a name similar to his and announced his intent to take legal action.

What did Allday say?
He also posted the update on Facebook, writing: "People keep asking me about this… I have a trademark on the name Allday. Maybe I don't have 20 billion streams like that K-pop shit—which mostly sucks, by the way. But I do exist and own the trademark to my name. Prepare for the greatest legal battle of all time."
Fans react to legal threats
His remarks quickly ignited discussion online. K-pop fans had varied reactions - some dismissed the post as petty or bitter, especially due to the tone and generalization of K-pop music. Others argued that, despite his delivery, the rapper may have valid legal concerns depending on trademark laws and market overlap.
Meanwhile, some fans pointed out the powerful backing behind ALLDAY PROJECT, including the involvement of the Shinsegae heiress, suggesting that the legal challenge may not go far. Memes and sarcastic comments also flooded social media, with fans daring him to "try his luck."
One fan remarked, "Yeah go against one of the heir of Samsung and a sub label from one of the biggest money maker ever yeah... try it."
Another chimed in, "They aren't called 'all day' they're called all day project…"
Someone else wrote, "Sounds kinda but hurt, but whatever. If he has the trademark then the judges have to decide if ALLDAY PROJECT is different enough of a name. Making such a grand announcement is cringe to me."
Yet another added, "I would've cared more if he didn't talk like a frustrated 13 yo."
Allday receives hate
While K-pop fans had numerous opinions, it seems some went to the rapper's Instagram to spread hate comments. The Aussie shared a screenshot on his Insta story and wrote, "Getting so much hate for this...I didn't realise how many people grew with lead in their drinking water."
A new challenge for a rookie group
ALLDAY PROJECT has been dealing with its fair share of controversies, and this latest issue only adds fuel to the fire. While it's uncertain whether legal action will actually materialize, the rapper's comments have stirred international interest and reignited conversation around the group's turbulent debut.
Despite the noise, fans remain eager to see how ALLDAY PROJECT navigates its early days - and whether this name dispute will escalate or quietly fade away.

Teen gets grounded by parents; what his friends did next had a US reporter turn it into funny news segment
Sometimes, the biggest news stories don't come from city halls or press conferences, but straight from your front lawn. And sometimes, the reporters covering them are just as entertained as the rest of us. In one of the most delightfully unexpected videos floating around Instagram right now, an American reporter, Kayla Sullivan, has turned a classic sibling situation into a full-fledged breaking news segment. A boy named Nick was grounded by his parents. Nothing unusual there, until his loyal gang of neighbourhood friends showed up outside the house, holding an impromptu protest and chanting in unison: 'We want Nick!' While Sullivan isn't related to Nick herself, she was tipped off by someone who is – Nick's sister Karlee Riggs. Giving a shoutout in her caption, Sullivan thanked Karlee for the exclusive scoop: 'Thanks for the news tip @riggskarlee. Will you please confirm what your brother did? The public needs to know.' Naturally, she did what any good journalist would do – reported the 'developing story' with all the professionalism of a primetime news anchor. The result was a viral video that now has over 500,000 views and a comment section full of laughs, parenting confessions, and a few serious takes. A post shared by Kayla Sullivan (@kaylamariesully) Many reacted to the video in the comments. 'Stay strong and turn the sprinklers on,' said a user in the comments. Another user commented, 'This is so dang funny! I'm trying to visualize my dad, aka 'Norm', would not have found this amusing! He was military. Does that explain my childhood??? Hahaha!' Another user said, 'This definitely would NOT have worked with my mom. She would've doubled my punishment and grounded all of my friends.' A fourth user wrote, 'This is one of the best things I've ever seen lol.' A woman said, 'I'm afraid that as a parent this would work on me and my son would be instantly released.' However, not everyone was happy with the video. One commented, 'I sure hope that those parents hold their ground. Teens should not be able to control things like this. They need to respect the parents/ family. They need to know consequences.'

Samantha Ruth Prabhu shuts down naysayers calling her ‘skinny, sickly' with impressive workout video
Jun 28, 2025 05:14 PM IST Actor Samantha Ruth Prabhu is in no mood to take 'crap' from anyone. The actor, who has been vocal about her struggles with myositis, an autoimmune disorder, took to her Instagram stories to share a message for those calling her 'skinny, sickly'. (Also Read: Pushpa girls Samantha Ruth Prabhu and Sreeleela put rift rumours to rest with joint appearance. Watch) Samantha Ruth Prabhu is tired of people criticising her and her body. Samantha took to her Instagram stories on Saturday to post a video of her doing pullups during her workout. Sharing it, she challenged people to do at least three pullups before criticising her, her body or her health. She wrote, 'Here's the deal. You don't get to call me skinny, sickly or any of that crap unless you can do 3 of these first. If you can't… Then read between the frikkin lines…' Samantha Ruth Prabhu challenged naysayers to perform pullups. This is not the first time Samantha has had to respond to comments on her weight or looks. In November last year, the actor-entrepreneur responded to a social media post asking her to gain weight and 'bulk up'. She wrote, 'If you guys must know, I am on a strict anti-inflammatory diet which is required for my condition, which prevents me from putting on weight, keeps in a certain weight bracket and keeps me in a sweet spot with my condition (myositis).' She ended the note by asking people to stop judging and reminding them it's 2024. Recent work Samantha took a break from filming due to a flare-up of her myositis. In 2021, she divorced from Naga Chaitanya and was public about her disorder in 2022. Films she had shot for by then – Shaakunthalam Yashoda – were released in 2022 and 2023. In 2024, she starred in Shiva Nirvana's romantic drama Kushi with Vijay Deverakonda. She also acted in Raj & DK's Prime Video web series, Citadel: Honey Bunny. Samantha recently turned producer with Subham. She will soon star in Maa Inti Bangaram, which she's also producing and Rakt Brahmand: The Bloody Kingdom for Netflix.
