Mad Realities

The first-ever celebrity guest on Shop Cats was Tokischa, iconic Dominican rapper. Tokischa co-hosted an episode of Shop Cats with us, where we visited Princesa and a lovely Dominican bodega in the Upper East Side. We are loving the feedback from partners and talent managers in our universe that "our shows are part of the new press tour!" For talent inquiries, reach out to us at [email protected] ??

So proud to share the official launch of Hollywood IQ, a pop culture trivia series I have been producing with Mad Realities. In less than 2 months, we’ve grown to more than 60 million views across TikTok, Instagram, and YouTube Shorts. I’ve poured countless hours into writing original game formats, casting contestants, and editing footage, so it’s been wonderful to see the massive support online for this show. This concept was born out of my undying love for pop culture, TV, movies, digital communities, and, above all else, trivia. In a new age of media where almost all of our consumption is through the internet, it made perfect sense to develop a trivia show covering the very topics we congregate online to talk about: movies, music, TV, celebrities, fandom, and viral moments. On Hollywood IQ, history facts won’t get you far — but identifying Wendy Williams quotes, studying IMDb pages, and knowing niche internet references will. Because of longer lead time for traditional TV trivia shows, it's difficult for them to agilely integrate digital culture and relevant memes into their gameplay. Alternatively, Hollywood IQ operates at a pace that matches the rapidly changing discourse surrounding pop culture. We are able to acknowledge trends as they are happening and cover them long before they become stale. A huge viral moment will pop up one day, and the next day, we’ve already posted an episode about it. None of this would have been possible without my amazing team at Mad Realities who has given me the space to build this series on a mountain of stan Twitter screentime, Letterboxd diary entries, and TikTok brainrot. I’m so lucky to work alongside and learn from such an innovative group of people at the forefront of a brand new industry of short-form digital content.
