Call Her Daddy’s Alex Cooper Leaves UTA, CAA Talks

Following turbulent months and the end of her beverage brand, Alex Cooper is embracing change, at least when it comes to her representation.

The Call Her Daddy host is in serious talks with CAA, Deadline can confirm. Nothing is signed, sealed and delivered yet, but the expectation is Cooper will make the uberagency her new home after a sudden exit from UTA.

Cooper’s team were mum on the move, and CAA declined to comment. UTA did not respond to Deadline’s request for comment on Cooper’s departure from her now former long time business building home. Bloomberg were first to report on Cooper’s agency shift.

Along with apparent feuds with Dave Portroy and ex-Cooper ally Alix Earle (both repped by UTA BTW), the blockbuster podcaster has seen a lot of not so great attention directed to her spouse Matt Kaplan. Still, with $125 million from a new UTA negotiated deal with SiriusXM in 2024, Cooper and Kaplan’s Unwell Media saw a big injection of cash last week from Patrick Whitesell and Jason Lublin.

The WTSL investment manifested with Unwell getting a $500 million valuation.

Because, regardless of your agency, nothing says call me like cold hard cash.
