Exclusive: Former Untitled Entertainment and Relativity Media exec Kendall Rhodes has launched Paraluman Media, a management and production boutique specializing in digital and entertainment.

Paraluman will be a 360 talent management company, developing and producing content for all platforms while securing brand partnerships, business building and consulting on social media strategy.

Rhodes represents a number of artists and social media influencers including actors, directors, producers and multi-platform creators. Her client roster includes Yousef Erakat, aka Fousey, from Tyler Perry’s Boo (1 and 2)! who counts north of 14M subs on YouTube; actors Stella Hudgens and Sophia Esperanza who respectively count Instagram followers of 1M and 3M+; Lifestyle creator, Meghan Rienks, who produced and starred in the Lionsgate movie The Honor List and has a reach of 5M+ on social media; YouTuber Lily Marston, who starred in YouTube’s BeautyBreak and recently started her own channel and network; filmmaker Caryn Waechter (Deadcon); Tony E.

The Greek Theatre, a major concert venue in the Griffith Park area of Los Angeles, was evacuated Sunday night. Yousef Erakat, better known as fouseyTUBE, was performing when his show was moved outside to the venue’s parking lot.

A bomb threat forced about 1,500 people to leave the venue. A call to police indicated an explosive device was placed at the venue, but an investigation did not discover any such package.

The threat forced the cancellation of the show by performer and YouTube personality Fousey, titled Hate Dies, Love Arrives.

Afterward, Fousey posted on Instagram about not being able to get into his own event.

“We’re just being tested right now,” he said.

The Los Angeles Police Department said early indications are that it may be a case of “Swat-ting,” a prank in which a caller reports a problem in hopes that law authorities deploy an emergency team to a site.

"People got dead up there for real!" Oh boy, here we go again... Lionsgate has revealed the trailer for the newest Tyler Perry joint, another Madea comedy (sequel) titled Boo 2! A Madea Halloween. This is, obviously enough, a sequel to the goofy Halloween comedy Boo! A Madea Halloween release just last year. Tyler Perry not only returns to write and direct, but also star again as Madea (and Joe and Brian). The cast includes Cassi Davis, Patrice Lovely, Chandra Currelley, Yousef Erakat, Diamond White, Lexy Panterra, and Andre Hall. The plot involves Madea, Bam & Hattie going to a haunted campground where they find monsters, goblins, and the boogeyman. As much as I have absolutely no interest in these movies, I have to give them props on the amusing poster design. Other than that, if you want to watch then go ahead. Here's the official trailer (+ poster) for Tyler Perry's Boo 2! A Madea Halloween,...

Before the holiday weekend gets under way, Lionsgate set new release dates for a pair of its upcoming projects. First up, the studio has handed out an October 20, 2017 release date for Boo 2! A Madea Halloween, a follow-up to last year's Boo! A Madea Halloween, from star/writer/director Tyler Perry. The studio also slated the new Aardman Animation stop-motion film Early Man for release on February 16, 2018. Unfortunately for both of those projects, they land on very competitive weekends.

Over the last few years, the third weekend in October has become increasingly crowded, but last year, Boo! A Madea Halloween managed to come out on top with a box office win of $28.5 million, easily beating three more newcomers, 20th Century Fox's Keeping Up With the Joneses, Jack Reacher: Never Go Back and Ouija: Origins of Evil. However, it only earned $73.2 million domestically and just $1.6 million internationally for a worldwide total of $74.8 million,...

For close to six months, the FouseyTUBE and DOSEofFOUSEY YouTube channels, both of which star Yousef Erakat, were dormant. Erakat, who has often been open with his viewers about his struggle with mental illness, has taken short breaks from YouTube in the past, but his recent half-year hiatus marked his most significant departure from his fans to date.

Now, Erakat has returned to his DOSEofFOUSEY channel with a new video. In it, he explains the reason for his long absence, talks about his battle with depression, and vows to return with new content.

As he tells his fans, the strong reactions he had received from viewers worsened his mental state. “Every single day I chose not to pick up this camera is because I’m terrified,” he says. “I’m terrified about what the world has to say about me, I’m terrified about how people perceive me, and I...

Madea is definitely larger than life with each new movie.

In the next installment from Tyler Perry, Boo! A Madea Halloween will be available on Blu-ray, DVD and digital download tomorrow. The film was made in part due to a mockery in Chris Rock’s Top Five as the next Tyler Perry movie back in 2014.

Here’s the synopsis:

Trying to win the approval of her friends, 17-year-old Tiffany sneaks out of the house to go to a Halloween bash at a fraternity. The fun soon ends when police and the cranky, fast-talking Madea arrive to crash the party. Unhappy with this sudden turn of events, the vengeful collegians decide to scare Madea and her cronies with a series of pranks. She soon finds herself under attack and on the run from assortment of ghosts, ghouls and zombies on the scariest night of the year.

The films also stars Cassi Davis,...

Madea returns in Tyler Perry’S Boo! A Madea Halloween available on Blu-ray (plus Digital HD), DVD, Digital HD and On Demand January 31 from Lionsgate Home Entertainment. Also on January 31, Tyler Perry’S Madea On The Run (The Play) will be available on Blu-ray (plus Digital HD), DVD, Digital HD and On Demand.

Kick off the new year, and those well-intentioned resolutions, with the Matriarch herself in Tyler Perry’s Boo! A Madea Halloween on Blu-ray (plus Digital HD), DVD, Digital HD and On Demand January 31 from Lionsgate. NAACP Image Award-winning director Tyler Perry returns as Madea along with fan favorites Aunt Bam and Hattie to prevent her teenage niece from attending the crazy frat party next door. The outrageously funny return of Madea – after a three-year theatrical hiatus – was number one at the box office two weekends in a row with a $74 million-dollar worldwide box office. The laugh-out-loud film...

“Boo! A Madea Halloween” star Yousef Erakat has a major crush on a certain celebrity, and he’s clearly not afraid of expressing his feelings for her. During a new episode of “Drinking With the Stars,” TheWrap’s Stuart Brazell asked the YouTuber who was his celebrity crush. “Emily Ratajkowski,” Erakat stated — no hesitation. Also Read: 'Boo!

Tyler Perry never tries to make a horror comedy out of Boo! A Madea Halloween. Don’t be fooled by promotional posters spoofing The Exorcist, Halloween and other classic horror films. Madea is as Madea does, and she’s back for another preachy sermon about how kids these days need a swift kick in the ass. You know, like in the good old days when Madea was stripping on a pole like a real ratchet hoe (her words). It’s more of the same Christian tomfoolery and annoying “Hallelujer!” exclamations – just with spooky masks and Halloween themes this time around. Expectations, meet G-rated haunted house mediocrity featuring lippy PG-13 elders.

YouTube star Yousef Erakat is just starting to dip his toes in the world of feature films, most notably working with Tyler Perry on this week’s “Boo! A Madea Halloween.” “I liked it,” Erakat said about being in a film directed by someone else. “I had to definitely trust whatever he thought it was right. The way he works, he works very fast, so there were times on set when I didn’t feel comfortable in my performance and he was like, ‘We’re moving on,’ meaning he got it. I had the trust from early on.” But Erakat...

One of this fall's strangest movies has to be Boo! A Madea Halloween. Sure, it's part of a long running comedy franchise, but it all started as a joke. And now it's a movie. And on top of that, it's a spoof spoofing other horror movies! Will the madness ever end? Not as long as Tyler Perry is alive. While the filmmaker had originally planned to stop making Madea movies, he just couldn't resist resurrecting the sassy grandma for another adventure, this one taking place on everyone's favorite fall holiday.

"Something freaky is happening to the family living in this house. And a woman has been sent to help. That woman is Madea!"
