Episode Transcript
It's time for Nina's what's trending. There's a guy named
Scott Kelly who woke up trending nationwide like companies like Pepsi,
Old Navy and people all over are trying to help
him get hired. And why and how he's been discovered
is actually the story. And I'll tell you what that
is coming up in a second, But first I want
to know what you guys think about this. Do you
(00:20):
think Matthew McConaughey is selling out or smart for investing
in an AI company that delivers celebrities voices? So so
many celebrities have been holding out on all AI, especially
when it comes to anything and like acting or voiceovers
or all of that stuff. Yeah, there's a company called
eleven Labs that Matthew McConaughey is an investor in that
specializes in celebrity voices. A lot of them, a lot
(00:44):
of them have already passed. Like if you want to
hire the voice for like a commercial or I mean
mostly that commercial or other stuff voice exactly. So there
are some celebrities who are actively you know, buying into No,
I don't know if you'd get buy in or you
get bought in or you get paid for your voice.
I'm not really sure how that works, but there's some
(01:05):
celebrities that are signing on and then some are half
passed that are also being used for this stuff, so
their estates are using it. But because of the pushback,
it's like, Okay, Matthew McConaughey is one of the guys,
so that's probably why people are co signing, Like but
is he smart or is sellout?
Speaker 2 (01:19):
I feel like half and half because I probably have
to pay for the voice they want to use, Like
whatever one is on there, I appreciate you just like
read a bunch of lines and then they can pay
a certain amount and use your voice. Part of me
is like they're gonna use your voice anyways, Like AI
will be used for whatever anyone wants it to be used,
So it's like you're getting at.
Speaker 1 (01:36):
Least paid for it. I feel like you're smart as
we'll buy in and embrace it.
Speaker 2 (01:39):
It's taking over, not helping by like showing like hey,
we need to stop this, but it's not going to stop.
Speaker 1 (01:46):
So what do you do?
Speaker 2 (01:47):
Well if they put like a certain like a band
on like certain kind of like AI's I see like
but they're not like who will, like like a union
would have to do that or something like that. I
don't know.
Speaker 1 (01:59):
Yeah, it's going to get out of control. I mean
it already kind of is in some areas. I think
it is. So it's probably smart to just embrace it, like, well,
it's all going there anyway, so you might as well
benefit it.
Speaker 2 (02:08):
Yeah, exactly, it's true.
Speaker 1 (02:09):
Interesting, right, so look out for eleven Labs. Maybe you
can even hire somebody to sing you a birthday song
Cannon expensive. That will be absolutely I don't know, maybe not,
but here we go. Scott Kelly. Gosh, this guy he
woke up so famous. He was at a Jonas Brothers
concert in Buffalo. Yeah he was, well, he wasn't actually
at the Jonas Brothers My bad. Hold on, let me
(02:30):
start over. What There was a person that was at
the Jonas Brothers concert in Buffalo who was sitting down
while they were performing, scrolling through their phone reviewing Scott
Kelly's resume. Scott Kelly wasn't actually there, but his resume
was being reviewed during the Jonas Brothers concert. So somebody
posted about it. Somebody that was sitting next to the
person that was reviewing the resume and it went super viral.
(02:52):
So the Jonas brothers have commented on it, Pepsi's commented
on it. Old Navy's commented on it. Wow, So people
around the country are like, Scott Kelly always dresses professionally,
highly recommended. Hopefully he got the job. I mean, at
this point, he's got to get the job. He's famous,
and if he doesn't get that job, he's going to
get a job.
Speaker 2 (03:11):
This video, though, is funny because the guy looks so
uninterested that the jonesposure like performing and everyone around him
was standing and singing, and they just like sitting there
scrolling dressing. He obviously came with somebody. He brought somebody there.
Speaker 1 (03:22):
It's like I work to do exactly, but it really
worked out. Little did he know Scott Kelly's the man. Now, Yay,
you're welcome. That's funny, but that is what's trending.
