Hudson Williams goes viral for kissing himself in ‘YAGA’ & reveals it was "awful"

Kissing another version of yourself takes more imagination than the finished scene suggests. Hudson Williams tells Etalk that filming YAGA's much-discussed encounter involved a double named Chris and, for one shot, kissing empty air. His verdict on that part: "It was awful."

The brief segment was the most watched of Etalk's fifteen new uploads, reaching roughly 12,000 views. It also carries the strongest daily momentum among the channel's videos right now. In the comments, viewers focus on the differences between Williams' two performances, while one expresses surprise that the double wasn't there for the air-kissing shot. Screen chemistry, meet production logistics.

Etalk also returned to a Lainey Lui interview with Donald Sutherland from 2012, when she asked what he had in common with President Snow. That archival Hunger Games exchange is the week's second-most-watched new upload and its next busiest source of daily viewing. A report announcing the live-action Stranger Things prequel, Other Worlds: A Stranger Things Adventure, follows in current momentum.

The Pink Awards supplied a broader red-carpet gathering, with Elliot Page, Emily Hampshire and Devery Jacobs among the interviewees. A separate Shawnee Kish clip centers her disappointment at the lack of Indigenous representation among Canada's Eurovision finalists, and why young people need to see artists who represent them.

Across the library, Etalk added nearly two million views, the largest weekly gain among its nearby TV and streaming peers. Subscribers grew modestly, although daily viewing is now well below its usual level. Williams' very unromantic explanation is giving this week's new interviews their most active conversation.

It's incredible to witness how beautifully Hudson gets into the skin of each character he plays, there's no trace of Logan in Henry and vice versa while they're both being played by the same actor!! He's outstanding!!!
