NewMediaRockstars (NMR) was an online magazine which was launched in December 2011 and primarily covered YouTube performers, entrepreneurs, and artists with videos and interviews.[1] In 2013, NewMediaRockstars closed because of lack of funding,[2] but was subsequently acquired by Danny Zappin (former CEO of Maker Studios) with the aim of building an online entertainment weekly. In 2014, Filup Molina took over all operations for NewMediaRockstars and rebranded the company as NewRockstars. The company switched focus to film and television analysis and the company's YouTube channel became its primary publication platform.[3][4][5][6]
