Jeff Krauss, the co-creator of FanRoom Live, is a man on a mission. His goal is simple and noble.

It’s to bring notable figures (celebrities) a little bit closer to the masses who love them via virtual town-hall style, meet and greet events. To foster harmonious talent-fan engagement. And if some money is raised for charity along the way, even better. It’s noteworthy that FanRoom Live is unique, in that it is an interactive virtual event series online which unites a group of fans, in order to ask a celebrity the exact questions they’ve been passionately burning to know. It’s a fun group hangout, only your favorite star is staring at their screen right along with only you when it’s your turn to speak.

This incredibly exciting new venture has already had many household names grace the various virtual events thrown. Stars that have participated and are on the platform include: Cedric The Entertainer, D.L. Hughley, Ice-T and Coco, George Lopez, Jake “The Snake” Roberts, Kurt Angle, Kenny Aronoff, Holland Roden, Morgan Fairchild, LA Dodgers Star Chris Taylor, Anthrax lead singer Joey Belladonna, Jessica Parker Kennedy, Paul Wight amongst many others. These intimate meetings truly promise never-experienced, up close and personal group hangtime sessions, that also protects against the dangers of covid-19.

FanRoom Live has over 4 billion impressions and has had coverage from major media outlets.

Cedric The Entertainer is a fellow co-founder, along with Jeff Krauss and Mich Faulkner, of FanRoom Live. These three together, along with the rest of their team, including Jae Benjamin (Host & Co-EP) and producer Stacey Toy amongst others are making a noticeable impact with this new venture.

Naturally, anything these guys touch would turn to gold. Jeff Krauss is an entertainment industry veteran at this point. Since 2006, Krauss has been the founder and president of the IE Group, which performs creative event planning services, branding and marketing, VIP services, celebrity and influencer marketing, and charity events management. He’s worked with some of the biggest names in the entertainment industry. Krauss also does work with some New York-based nightclubs and restaurants, and judging from his instagram has seen the likes of 50 Cent and others perform. That type of high caliber of artist is brought to the venues he works with..

As Krauss puts it: “Cedric The Entertainer, Mich, and I get along so well, and make such great business partners because we are completely tuned into this industry and fully comprehend the wants and needs of consumers. We all have experienced our fair share of success and have put in the work and dedication for so long that we are very knowledgeable of what it is we are doing. Cedric is a great guy, amazing person, he’s the best. Working alongside him is a blast.”

The whole thing’s a blast!
