Transcript
00:00David Dobrik reacts to Olivia Jade and the USC admissions scandal.
00:07Olivia reveals she never had a choice when it came to college.
00:10Plus, Dr. Dre shades Lori Loughlin and faced major backlash.
00:15Hey guys, it's Ali for Hollywood Life and we've got some Olivia Jade updates.
00:21But first, let's recap.
00:23Back in early March, news broke that the FBI had prosecuted over 50 people
00:27in the largest college admissions scam, otherwise known as Operation Varsity Blues.
00:33Among the mess is YouTuber Olivia Jade, the daughter of Full House actress Lori Loughlin,
00:38who reportedly paid $500,000 to get Olivia and her sister into USC.
00:43Olivia has since lost her partnerships with Sephora and Tresemme,
00:47disabled comments on her YouTube channel, and declined returning to school.
00:52And on top of that, Olivia and her sister Isabella may even be banned
00:56from the USC campus altogether.
00:58But let's talk about some parental reactions for a sec.
01:02TMZ caught up with Jordan Belfort at LAX and the real-life wolf of Wall Street
01:06told the site he was approached by someone about paying to get his son into Georgetown.
01:11All right, so my son was in 12th grade, right?
01:14Someone found out I was applying to college.
01:16I got a call, I forgot who it was.
01:17Someone said about getting him into Georgetown, all right?
01:20And they wanted money.
01:21And I was like, what?
01:22I was like, what the?
01:23I was like, no, wait.
01:24First of all, I don't think my son, right?
01:26You're not doing your kid a favor by buying his way to school.
01:28Anyway.
01:29Another parent being vocal about the scandal is Dr. Dre,
01:32who posted this photo of him and his daughter with the caption,
01:35My daughter got accepted into USC all on her own.
01:38No jail time.
01:39Dre was hit with a wave of backlash and has since deleted the picture.
01:43Fans consider the post to be tone deaf,
01:45especially because he and Jimmy Iovine donated $70 million to USC
01:49and has a building named after them.
01:51Adding to this, it seemed that Dr. Dre was pushing his daughter to attend USC,
01:55similar to how Lori Loughlin was with Olivia Jade, according to a report.
02:00Truly Young posted this photo last May with the caption,
02:03Dad pushing me to go to USC.
02:05But okay, David Dobrik may not be a parent,
02:07but he's also reacting to the scandal.
02:09Entertainment Tonight reports David has nothing but support
02:12for his friend and fellow YouTuber, Olivia Jade.
02:15David told the site, I haven't gotten to talk to her a lot,
02:17but she's a sweet, smart girl, so I'm sure she's holding up good.
02:20He continued by saying, I wish her the best.
02:22It's the worst to get wrapped up in anything bad.
02:24We love you, David, but come on, give me something I can use.
02:28And you might want to actually give her a call
02:30because a source close to Olivia told us exclusively
02:33that she has found the entire situation hard and shocking, of course.
02:37She never imagined her parents would do something like this.
02:39They are a tight-knit family unit,
02:41and she has really counted on her mother for everything,
02:44including career advice and life guidance.
02:47We're hearing the family has had multiple conversations
02:49since all of this has happened,
02:51and Olivia is feeling several different emotions.
02:53Despite her love for her parents,
02:55she has feelings of doubt and betrayal.
02:57She wanted to focus on her career,
02:58but her parents were adamant about a college education,
03:01so she felt she never had a real choice to begin with.
03:04But alright guys, hit that sub, like and bell button,
