James Charles, a name so chilling

0:00:03.390,0:00:05.201
that it requires a trigger warning.

0:00:05.966,0:00:07.227
Trigger warning: James Charles.

0:00:08.171,0:00:10.522
You can say a lot of things about[br]James Charles.

0:00:10.993,0:00:11.951
Most of them are bad.

0:00:12.300,0:00:13.492
Like, really bad.

0:00:14.290,0:00:16.879
But objectively, he is one of the most[br]well-known

0:00:17.423,0:00:19.795
influencers from the last 10 years.

0:00:20.091,0:00:21.814
And because of how much exposure

0:00:22.527,0:00:25.492
and business success he saw[br]over the years,

0:00:26.325,0:00:30.396
James Charles is truly somebody who[br]could have had it all

0:00:30.923,0:00:34.150
if only he wasn't a piece of shit.

0:00:34.442,0:00:37.714
If you're watching this video, odds are[br]you've heard of James,

0:00:38.132,0:00:40.826
or you've at least heard of his infamy.

0:00:41.280,0:00:43.161
You may have had the petrifying[br]experience

0:00:43.420,0:00:46.299
of seeing his BBL or hearing him say

0:00:46.863,0:00:47.443
"Hi sisters!"

0:00:49.304,0:00:52.100
This guy's digital footprint has [br]some of the funniest

0:00:52.665,0:00:55.566
and grossest shit I have ever seen.

0:00:55.838,0:00:59.793
Because as we'll get into, he is a massive[br]creepo, freako,

0:01:00.153,0:01:00.879
womp womp.

0:01:02.337,0:01:03.536
It is quite a tale.

0:01:03.978,0:01:08.377
So allow me to take you on an Unhinged[br]James Charles Deepdive.

0:01:19.333,0:01:22.520
James Charles (or James Charles[br]Dickinson)

0:01:22.962,0:01:27.638
was born on May 3rd, 1999 in Bethlehem,[br]New York.

0:01:28.064,0:01:31.330
And he is Emily Dickinson's third cousin[br]twice removed -

0:01:31.673,0:01:34.003
ignore that, it was a lie, I just lied.

0:01:34.294,0:01:37.062
In 2010, at the age of 11, he started his

0:01:37.298,0:01:40.376
very first YouTube channel called[br]JaysCoding.

0:01:40.760,0:01:44.507
This channel mostly consisted of him[br]covering songs like

0:01:44.769,0:01:45.577
"Pumped Up Kicks".

0:01:46.056,0:01:49.732
♫ "You better run, better run[br]faster than my bullet." ♫

0:01:49.914,0:01:51.686
"Before He Cheats" by Carrie Underwood.

0:01:51.941,0:01:55.253
♫ "Carved my name[br]into his leather seats." ♫

0:01:55.728,0:01:58.677
But most notably, this [br]"It Will Rain" cover

0:01:58.971,0:02:00.036
where he's wearing this wolf hat.

0:02:00.233,0:02:03.286
♫ "- morphine at my door." ♫

0:02:03.456,0:02:05.601
And although these childhood videos are[br]wholesome,

0:02:05.872,0:02:08.078
this would be the start[br]of a very troubling

0:02:08.305,0:02:10.975
pattern of him[br]singing unprompted.

0:02:11.196,0:02:16.710
Although my personal favorite video[br]that I found on JaysCoding

0:02:17.233,0:02:20.747
was this six-second upload of just[br]a image of an eye.

0:02:20.981,0:02:24.057
Like, bro really uploaded an[br]image to YouTube,

0:02:24.294,0:02:26.143
and that is so of the time.

0:02:26.588,0:02:30.812
But in 2015, he would launch his second[br]and main channel

0:02:31.062,0:02:33.330
that we know today as James Charles.

0:02:33.967,0:02:37.060
And this is where he started uploading[br]makeup tutorials, such as

0:02:37.327,0:02:42.771
serpent makeup tutorial and[br]Snapchat Galaxy makeup tutorial.

0:02:42.995,0:02:47.572
And as you can see, none of these look[br]particularly good.

0:02:47.915,0:02:51.041
In fact, they're pretty bad,[br]but I assure you

0:02:51.253,0:02:54.644
everyone's makeup looked[br]really bad in 2015,

0:02:54.925,0:02:56.984
so that really means nothing I guess.

0:02:57.202,0:03:01.432
But he was gaining a really decent[br]audience from posting these tutorials.

0:03:01.666,0:03:05.813
But the inciting incident, the[br]catalyst that would launch

0:03:06.322,0:03:11.322
James Charles' career, happened in[br]September of 2016.

0:03:11.736,0:03:17.803
And this moment would have irreversible[br]repercussions on society and the Internet.

0:03:18.114,0:03:20.256
James was 17 years old at this point,

0:03:20.524,0:03:23.337
and he had just taken his senior photos,

0:03:23.611,0:03:26.135
which came out fugly according to him.

0:03:26.418,0:03:29.618
And so he hired the school[br]photographer to come back

0:03:29.916,0:03:33.159
and let him retake the pictures[br]with his ring light.

0:03:33.395,0:03:37.460
And as you can see here, his highlight is[br]definitely going off,

0:03:37.699,0:03:40.952
his brows have a good[br]Roblox look to them.

0:03:41.323,0:03:44.789
However, where I draw the line is[br]that man bun.

0:03:45.159,0:03:46.396
What the f**k?

0:03:46.675,0:03:48.984
Anyways, his friend convinces[br]him to post these

0:03:49.233,0:03:54.705
new glamorous pictures online[br]and they go extremely viral.

0:03:54.943,0:03:57.723
Like, this picture of James[br]was being shared

0:03:57.995,0:04:01.510
so much that CoverGirl noticed it.

0:04:01.742,0:04:06.089
And that is how he became the world's[br]first male CoverGirl.

0:04:06.351,0:04:11.792
Now because this was 2016, it stirred[br]controversy amongst conservatives.

0:04:12.295,0:04:13.354
And, you know, of course it did

0:04:13.593,0:04:17.116
because it's CoverGirl, not "CoverDong".

0:04:17.343,0:04:20.113
Seriously, though, I found this[br]old Twitter thread

0:04:20.428,0:04:23.470
where people are just bitching about this[br]like there's no tomorrow.

0:04:23.793,0:04:25.637
A great example is this one:

0:04:26.125,0:04:31.948
<i>reads tweet.</i>

0:04:36.889,0:04:38.993
There's also this one where[br]a woman compares

0:04:39.383,0:04:43.694
James being on CoverGirl to a white[br]person doing blackface.

0:04:44.155,0:04:46.645
Um... Nurse, she's out again!

0:04:46.808,0:04:50.329
Anyways, outisde of these randos making[br]a stink out of it,

0:04:50.628,0:04:53.082
this opened up a lot of opportunities

0:04:53.323,0:04:53.772
for James.

0:04:54.149,0:04:58.162
I mean, he went on Ellen, I guess that's [br]not that impressive, though.

0:04:58.437,0:05:02.548
As I mentioned in the Jojo Siwa video, you[br]could literally fart into a bucket

0:05:02.838,0:05:06.116
and somehow make it on Ellen at this[br]point in time.

0:05:06.340,0:05:08.493
And as his fame was escalating,

0:05:08.720,0:05:11.130
he did his first-ever fan meet.

0:05:11.497,0:05:14.189
Only 50 people showed up to this event,

0:05:14.432,0:05:16.509
and one of the videos that was taken there

0:05:16.732,0:05:19.217
was turned into a meme because at

0:05:19.355,0:05:24.739
some point James just sat down on the[br]ground and started singing.

0:05:24.896,0:05:33.336
♫ Bring me a little water now! [br]Bring me little water, Sylvie!♫

0:05:33.464,0:05:36.850
I don't know what my favorite part about[br]this meme is. It might be

0:05:37.085,0:05:39.602
the Snapchat caption that says "f**k it up"

0:05:39.887,0:05:43.237
which insinuates that he's doing a good[br]job singing right now.

0:05:43.480,0:05:45.470
Or it could be the fact that he raises

0:05:45.635,0:05:48.560
his finger up as if he's hitting those[br]high notes.

0:05:48.793,0:05:50.779
This was, of course, the very first time

0:05:50.969,0:05:52.988
that he was turned into a meme,

0:05:53.272,0:05:55.749
but it's certainly would not be the last.

0:05:56.055,0:06:01.206
This same year, James did a CoverGirl[br]promotion with Zendaya,

0:06:01.448,0:06:04.266
and oh my God, this has gotta be

0:06:04.420,0:06:08.071
one of the most unintentionally funny[br]videos I've ever seen.

0:06:08.276,0:06:12.562
So this video that they're doing is a[br]challenge to see what makeup

0:06:12.792,0:06:16.418
looks they could come up with in the[br]span of 5 minutes.

0:06:16.591,0:06:20.485
And so they're both in a rush and trying [br]to showcase these CoverGirl

0:06:20.750,0:06:22.239
products along the way.

0:06:22.514,0:06:22.781
And about 30 seconds in, James gets[br]befuddled and just starts

0:06:22.781,0:06:30.242
copying Zendaya and then acts like

0:06:30.616,0:06:32.725
everything he's doing was his idea.

0:06:33.022,0:06:34.463
- "I used it on my inner corner."[br]- "Same."

0:06:34.720,0:06:36.409
(Huh??)

0:06:36.647,0:06:36.897
- "I used this as a base for the blue."[br]- "Yeah, same."

0:06:37.402,0:06:41.169
And not only this, [br]the end result is so bad,

0:06:41.500,0:06:44.984
she absolutely ate him up, I can't [br]believe this video exists.

0:06:45.273,0:06:47.974
These two people should not exist in the[br]same universe.

0:06:48.220,0:06:51.155
James would soon also start doing collabs

0:06:51.401,0:06:56.308
with massive YouTubers like Tana Mongeau,[br]Joey Graceffa, and even

0:06:56.558,0:06:58.681
non-YouTubers like Maddie Ziegler.

0:06:58.938,0:07:01.269
However, he would soon find himself in his

0:07:01.479,0:07:06.497
very first controversy, and that is the[br]"Ebola" tweet.

0:07:06.720,0:07:09.750
On Febuary 16, 2017, James writes:

0:07:10.000,0:07:19.077
<i>reads tweet.</i>

0:07:19.234,0:07:21.433
So obviously this is very out of touch

0:07:21.651,0:07:27.471
and just kind of assumes that Africa is [br]like a diseased-riddled area,

0:07:27.736,0:07:30.046
and so people were not happy about this.

0:07:30.288,0:07:34.850
And so the very same day he [br]did his first public apology ever.

0:07:35.087,0:07:35.618
He wrote:

0:07:36.279,0:07:44.105
<i>reads tweet.</i>

0:07:44.255,0:07:48.540
And people definitely still thought James[br]was racist for, like, a good month

0:07:48.756,0:07:49.537
after this.

0:07:49.762,0:07:53.052
But the discourse got completely[br]overshadowed by the events of

0:07:53.242,0:07:59.530
March 5th, 2017, which was the birth of[br]Flashback Mary.

0:07:59.745,0:08:02.196
So what happened was that[br]James was at an event

0:08:02.407,0:08:05.858
and he had WAY too much[br]powder on his face,

0:08:06.095,0:08:10.634
and so when they took this picture of him,[br]it caused a flashback that gave him this,

0:08:10.848,0:08:15.673
like, ghostly, ghoulish, sinister[br]SCP look to him.

0:08:15.913,0:08:18.541
And the internet was immediately[br]obsessed with this.

0:08:18.735,0:08:23.063
Like, this is definitely one of the [br]biggest memes that has hit the Internet.

0:08:23.297,0:08:25.922
Ask anyone, ask your grandma, [br]ask your

0:08:26.072,0:08:29.819
local pastor, they know [br]Flashback Mary.

0:08:30.546,0:08:34.777
The main comparison that was being made[br]to James was of this spider from-

0:08:34.999,0:08:35.925
what is this show called?

0:08:36.070,0:08:38.622
It's called Miss Spider's[br]Sunny Patch Friends.

0:08:38.873,0:08:41.424
Like, I can't express to you [br]how many times

0:08:41.599,0:08:43.962
I've seen this image against my will,

0:08:44.137,0:08:46.623
I wish I could permaban it from my brain.

0:08:46.968,0:08:50.037
Something a little disappointing about [br]this meme, though, is that the

0:08:50.197,0:08:54.106
widespread image of Flashback[br]Mary is not the real one.

0:08:54.307,0:08:59.318
This is the real one, and I will say, the[br]flashback is still really bad,

0:08:59.516,0:09:03.888
but whoever edited this picture[br]just made it 70 times worse.

0:09:04.160,0:09:08.328
An interesting artifact of the time that I[br]found was this Redbubble page

0:09:08.545,0:09:15.965
that just exclusively sells Flashback Mary[br]furniture, such as clocks and pillows.

0:09:16.245,0:09:18.967
I really don't understand Redbubble,[br]people will just sell

0:09:19.236,0:09:22.028
tych-fck-ehchk-ANYTHING there.

0:09:22.174,0:09:26.477
Anyways, though, speaking of James[br]Charles' foundation, he does not

0:09:26.713,0:09:28.868
know how to match that shit.

0:09:29.052,0:09:32.795
Like, there's entire compilations[br]of him doing just that.

0:09:32.988,0:09:36.846
And in this video specifically, he[br]describes himself as having

0:09:37.482,0:09:38.952
warm undertones.

0:09:39.512,0:09:41.009
"<i>GASP.</i> That looks like it could be[br]such a good match for me,

0:09:41.260,0:09:44.141
everyone is convinced that my skintone[br]is, like, not warm."

0:09:44.285,0:09:46.413
Girl, you are PINK! You are PINK!

0:09:46.630,0:09:49.341
I think the funniest part about all[br]of this, though, is that he

0:09:49.714,0:09:54.817
literally has a YouTube video trying, [br]like, 40 different foundation shades, and

0:09:55.116,0:09:58.717
in the end he <i>still</i> chooses the wrong one.

0:09:58.937,0:10:04.301
Side note, though, another James [br]Charles-ism is that he chronically misuses

0:10:04.550,0:10:16.897
Facetune, especially in this era.

0:10:17.524,0:10:19.360
And to be fair, he's never hid that he[br]uses Facetune, but it just looks so bad

0:10:19.834,0:10:22.315
that I don't understand why he continues[br]to do it. Like, when I see these pictures,

0:10:22.315,0:10:22.565
I get uncanny valley, Russian[br]Sleep Experiment, creepypasta vibes.

0:10:27.091,0:10:29.519
Moving on, though, we have the "It"[br]debacle of 2017.

0:10:31.420,0:10:36.422
Now, the It debacle began on September[br]7th when James tweeted about

0:10:36.667,0:10:40.585
how he was gonna go see It, and[br]how excited he was about it.

0:10:40.796,0:10:45.199
But literally five minutes into the movie,[br]he started tweeting about how bad

0:10:45.418,0:10:47.685
it was, which, of course, is just nutty

0:10:47.864,0:10:49.776
because how have you already[br]decided that

0:10:49.946,0:10:52.502
you don't like the movie, and it's only [br]been five minutes?

0:10:52.695,0:10:55.546
And, like, why are you even on your phone?

0:10:55.796,0:10:58.883
About thirty minutes later,[br]James tweets again,

0:10:59.079,0:11:00.297
and this time, he says:

0:11:00.484,0:11:11.035
<i>reading tweet.</i>

0:11:11.286,0:11:14.797
Both of these tweets annoyed people for[br]obvious reasons.

0:11:15.041,0:11:19.120
Like, he's just been texting the entire[br]movie.

0:11:19.334,0:11:22.969
It doesn't even sound like he's been[br]watching it to know if it's bad!

0:11:23.264,0:11:27.993
And so in response to all the people[br]questioning why he's doing this,

0:11:28.138,0:11:28.520
he writes:

0:11:28.708,0:11:36.102
<i>reads tweet.</i>

0:11:36.302,0:11:37.000
But <i>then,</i>

0:11:37.214,0:11:40.504
Finn Wolfhard replies to one of these[br]tweets and says:

0:11:40.795,0:11:45.207
<i>reads tweet</i>

0:11:45.356,0:11:50.007
Granted, at this time, I think Finn was[br]12 or 13 maybe.

0:11:50.247,0:11:51.009
And so James tweets:

0:11:51.214,0:11:55.307
<i>reads tweet.</i>

0:11:55.468,0:11:58.854
Which sounds like he's accepting the[br]end of this.

0:11:59.097,0:12:02.236
Like, this should be the end of the[br]conversation.

0:12:02.432,0:12:07.341
But instead, he starts backtracking times[br]3,000, and he says:

0:12:07.669,0:12:15.561
<i>reads tweet.</i>

0:12:15.769,0:12:19.873
For the next few hours, people on [br]Twitter would not leave him alone

0:12:20.078,0:12:22.256
about why he was texting in the [br]movie theater.

0:12:22.529,0:12:23.817
And so he eventually says:

0:12:24.094,0:12:30.755
<i>reads tweet.</i>

0:12:31.008,0:12:33.839
And this dug his grave in even more.

0:12:34.100,0:12:38.012
Because people were like, "What do you[br]mean 'everyone does it,'

0:12:38.228,0:12:40.038
like, everyone does not do that!"

0:12:40.287,0:12:45.461
Personally, as an AMC Stubs member,[br]this pains me.

0:12:45.736,0:12:47.596
Follow me on Letterboxd so I can[br]feel important.

0:12:47.865,0:12:53.014
But this caused people to start doing[br]polls about whether or not people

0:12:53.240,0:12:55.183
actually texted people during movies.

0:12:55.500,0:13:00.456
And the results were, of course,[br]overwhelmingly NO.

0:13:00.722,0:13:01.825
No they do not!

0:13:02.171,0:13:05.797
And again, this should've been the end of[br]the conversation, but he just keeps

0:13:06.032,0:13:11.011
acknowledging it, and he ends up filming[br]an apology video in the backseat

0:13:11.287,0:13:12.471
of an Uber.

0:13:12.794,0:13:15.137
(James talking:) "I want to personally[br]apologize to Finn and anybody else

0:13:15.341,0:13:16.632
involved in the making of the movie It."

0:13:17.310,0:13:21.229
And regardless of all of this, a couple[br]days later, he ended up doing an

0:13:21.518,0:13:23.183
It makeup tutorial.

0:13:23.461,0:13:25.304
(James doing a Pennywise voice:) [br]"Hiya, sisters! James Charles

0:13:25.605,0:13:27.031
here, and welcome back to my[br]YouTube channel!"

0:13:27.341,0:13:30.088
Which, by the way, the first six[br]seconds of this video

0:13:30.391,0:13:34.603
changed my life for the worse, so I'm[br]gonna make <i>you</i> see this too.

0:13:34.891,0:13:37.933
(dubstep, intense music)

0:13:38.131,0:13:38.547
(scream sound effect)

0:13:38.805,0:13:41.175
In 2018, the "Sister Squad formed

0:13:41.509,0:13:44.030
And this was basically just of long

0:13:44.310,0:13:46.820
squad of these four best friends that

0:13:47.085,0:13:49.087
consisted of... I mentioned Ethan Dolan,

0:13:49.528,0:13:52.008
Grayson Dolan, and of course

0:13:52.245,0:13:55.642
James himself. Now Eathan Dolan / Grayson

0:13:56.002,0:13:59.226
had a huge Youtube channel that they

0:13:59.499,0:14:01.997
have been making videos on since 2014

0:14:02.264,0:14:04.403
And James ended up meeting them in late

0:14:04.723,0:14:07.731
2017 after he left he left a bunch of very

0:14:07.982,0:14:10.786
Questionably, thirsty Tweets on both of

0:14:10.991,0:14:13.022
Their Instagrams. These includes comments

0:14:13.394,0:14:15.166
Such as "Run me over with that

0:14:15.393,0:14:17.357
Motorcycle, daddy". "Choke me with that

0:14:17.791,0:14:18.991
Seatbelt, daddy".

0:14:19.355,0:14:21.439
And last but not least, " Hit me with that

0:14:21.676,0:14:22.460
Stick, daddy".

0:14:22.796,0:14:26.539
On June 9, 2018, the first ever "Sister

0:14:26.785,0:14:28.855
Squad" video was posted and this

0:14:29.099,0:14:31.825
Had a cultural impact like no other

0:14:32.090,0:14:34.393
Squad at the time. I don't care what

0:14:34.591,0:14:36.309
Anyone says. This is the truth.

0:14:36.586,0:14:37.918
The "Sister Squad" was such an

0:14:38.134,0:14:40.497
Immediate success and all their videos

0:14:40.740,0:14:43.246
Were pretty much just them hanging out.

0:14:43.496,0:14:45.957
Each one of the "Sister Squad" videos got

0:14:46.171,0:14:48.895
Around 30 million views a piece.

0:14:49.127,0:14:50.761
And so, they say that people were

0:14:50.984,0:14:51.726
invested.

0:14:51.960,0:14:53.272
In this friend's group dynamic

0:14:54.063,0:14:57.068
'It would be an understatement.

0:14:57.291,0:15:00.178
The most notable dynamics was that of.

0:15:00.585,0:15:02.886
Emma and Grayson because it was heavily

0:15:03.523,0:15:07.901
theorized that they secretly dating while

0:15:08.134,0:15:10.016
fans were constantly speculating them.,

0:15:10.498,0:15:13.281
making entire compilations of their

0:15:13.500,0:15:16.105
interactions. And secondly was the

0:15:16.297,0:15:18.771
dynamic between James and Grayson.

0:15:18.973,0:15:20.657
It was pretty much an open secret that

0:15:20.893,0:15:23.042
James had a crush on Grayson and there's

0:15:23.340,0:15:27.216
entire compilations of him unsuccessfully

0:15:27.513,0:15:29.249
flirting with him. And there's

0:15:29.456,0:15:30.390
definitely some of the incidents were

0:15:30.662,0:15:33.375
preplanned as a joke, but there's

0:15:33.633,0:15:36.143
also many that were pretty much very raw.

0:15:36.786,0:15:40.050
Very real like you can feel the rejection

0:15:40.350,0:15:42.075
in the air like <i>groaning</i>

0:15:42.341,0:15:44.835
this is very important to remember when

0:15:45.085,0:15:47.546
we get to bisister, so just keep this is

0:15:47.820,0:15:50.921
in mind that this group being able to

0:15:51.164,0:15:53.234
make millions and millions of views per

0:15:53.470,0:15:55.463
video and despite the way they seem so

0:15:55.715,0:15:58.353
close in these videos. These two things

0:15:58.612,0:16:00.785
have appeared to cause some turmoil

0:16:01.109,0:16:04.357
because by February 4th, 2019, Emma

0:16:04.593,0:16:07.407
unfollowed all of them and to be fair,

0:16:07.648,0:16:10.709
she did unfollow everyone but like six

0:16:10.927,0:16:13.757
people and posted on her story that she

0:16:13.949,0:16:16.582
had done that for a social media purge.

0:16:16.840,0:16:18.916
But to be honest, it doesn't really make

0:16:19.143,0:16:20.998
sense because if you are doing a social

0:16:21.220,0:16:23.401
media purge I think you still follow your

0:16:23.699,0:16:26.524
closest friends and just not anyone else.

0:16:26.836,0:16:29.865
So it kinda seemed like a convenient, uh,

0:16:30.164,0:16:32.766
excuse. And James Charles's response to

0:16:32.989,0:16:35.571
this was this tweet, "I posted a beautiful

0:16:35.894,0:16:38.121
makeup look today but you wouldn't know"

0:16:38.417,0:16:41.357
In November of 2018, James released his

0:16:41.569,0:16:43.946
first ever makeup pallet. And this, of

0:16:44.269,0:16:46.437
course, was James X Morphe. Now, let me

0:16:46.773,0:16:49.290
tell you, this pallet was extremely

0:16:49.738,0:16:52.717
popular at the time. Everyone that I

0:16:53.036,0:16:55.566
knew had this, I had this, and it was just

0:16:55.867,0:16:58.615
generally really well recieved. So this

0:16:58.881,0:17:01.716
new level of entrepreneurship really

0:17:01.958,0:17:05.571
brought him up a threshold of passionate

0:17:05.809,0:17:08.659
passionate fans. Like he did an appearance

0:17:08.908,0:17:11.347
at a Morphe store in Birmingham and

0:17:11.561,0:17:16.024
8,000 people showed up to the mall to see

0:17:16.256,0:17:18.808
him and it literally caused gridlock

0:17:19.095,0:17:21.093
outside of the store, like people were

0:17:21.322,0:17:23.962
trapped in their cars. That is how

0:17:24.241,0:17:27.008
popular he was at the time. However, it

0:17:27.284,0:17:30.340
wouldn't be long until James found himself

0:17:30.631,0:17:34.690
in another controversy. Also, oh my god, I

0:17:34.934,0:17:36.883
almost forgot to mention that he was

0:17:37.139,0:17:39.887
singing unprompted in front of this Morphe

0:17:40.186,0:17:40.869
as well.

0:17:41.097,0:17:44.392
<i>singing</i>

0:17:44.666,0:17:47.846
The 2019 Sisters Tour. So James was doing

0:17:48.056,0:17:50.856
a tour across the country and the most

0:17:51.119,0:17:53.585
expensive ticket that you could buy to see

0:17:53.801,0:17:57.821
him was $500. Which, a lot of people

0:17:58.100,0:18:01.005
were quick to call a scam. And he received

0:18:01.223,0:18:03.716
a ton of backlash for this. Personally, I

0:18:03.916,0:18:05.976
don't think this was a scam because you

0:18:06.208,0:18:08.521
were going to get what you paid for. Like,

0:18:08.732,0:18:10.288
it says right here what's included with

0:18:10.524,0:18:13.231
this. It says, "Exclusive hangout with

0:18:13.460,0:18:16.372
James Charles and the other Sister VIPS.

0:18:16.637,0:18:18.470
One on one photo with James Charles.

0:18:18.780,0:18:21.937
Exclusive Sisters VIP goodie bag. And

0:18:22.241,0:18:24.972
exclusive autograph tour laminate. Front

0:18:25.149,0:18:28.200
row seats and early access to merchandise

0:18:28.474,0:18:30.902
vendors". Okay, that last one is crazy.

0:18:31.084,0:18:33.961
Like, if your spending $500, I think you

0:18:34.234,0:18:36.081
should get some free merch. In no way do I

0:18:36.319,0:18:39.155
feel like this is worth $500 and like, in

0:18:39.398,0:18:41.376
my perspective, I would feel like an

0:18:41.574,0:18:44.360
asshole to hide a meet and greet with me

0:18:44.599,0:18:47.649
behind a $500 paywall. However, if you

0:18:47.920,0:18:50.344
really wanted to have all that stuff and

0:18:50.572,0:18:53.655
spend $500, that is your business. James

0:18:53.871,0:18:55.712
did say that he would try to talk to his

0:18:55.979,0:18:58.500
team about lowering the prices, but they

0:18:58.800,0:19:00.732
did remain the same. And in case your

0:19:00.983,0:19:04.111
wondering what the luxury VIP James

0:19:04.325,0:19:06.733
Charles experience was like, there's a

0:19:07.024,0:19:09.785
video on YouTube titled, "I PAID $500

0:19:09.995,0:19:12.711
TO SING WITH JAMES CHARLES" and it's him

0:19:13.014,0:19:15.416
surrounded by a huge group of girls

0:19:15.646,0:19:19.924
singing Listen by Beyonce very poorly.

0:19:20.157,0:19:26.001
<i>singing</i>

0:19:26.185,0:19:29.044
A genuine perk I see for anyone who went

0:19:29.246,0:19:30.998
on this tour though, was that they got to

0:19:31.205,0:19:34.046
witness the New Rules kick. In real time.

0:19:34.625,0:19:37.965
<i>video plays</i>

0:19:38.154,0:19:40.132
This became a meme just purely out of

0:19:40.400,0:19:43.459
being the perfect storm. People just found

0:19:43.685,0:19:45.861
out that some tickets to the tour cost

0:19:46.062,0:19:49.082
$500 and then they see this. Poor

0:19:49.692,0:19:52.651
singing and poor dancing. And that third

0:19:52.890,0:19:56.177
miscellaneous kick, muah.

0:19:56.411,0:19:58.256
Let's take a break to talk about something

0:19:58.492,0:20:01.551
that definitely isn't overpriced. Today's

0:20:01.745,0:20:04.380
video is sponsored by care/of. You guys,

0:20:04.632,0:20:07.296
I'm so excited that care/of decided to

0:20:07.539,0:20:10.087
partner with me again because I genuinely

0:20:10.325,0:20:13.410
love my vitamin packs. Like, care/of has

0:20:13.658,0:20:15.405
truly made remembering to take your

0:20:15.623,0:20:17.731
vitamins and incorporating them into

0:20:17.945,0:20:20.926
your wellness routines so convenient. And

0:20:21.115,0:20:23.005
all I had to do to get the vitamins that

0:20:23.211,0:20:25.353
were right for me, was take this little

0:20:25.560,0:20:27.871
online quiz and it basically asks you

0:20:28.171,0:20:30.943
questions about your lifestyle, and about

0:20:31.188,0:20:33.726
your health goals. Then boom. care/of

0:20:34.039,0:20:36.269
sends you doctor back recommendations

0:20:36.587,0:20:39.448
right to your door in compostable packets.

0:20:39.772,0:20:43.452
So! When I took my quiz, I said that I was

0:20:43.718,0:20:45.596
concerned about my skin health, my eye

0:20:45.873,0:20:48.190
health, and also that I wanted to improve

0:20:48.481,0:20:50.939
my focus. And they ended up recommending

0:20:51.196,0:20:53.417
me Astaxanthin, that's good for your eye

0:20:53.691,0:20:55.745
and skin health. Then I got some Ceramides

0:20:56.047,0:20:58.194
which is of course also good for your

0:20:58.388,0:21:00.173
skin health. I got some Rhodiola which is

0:21:00.634,0:21:03.692
for stress and focus. And honestly I could

0:21:03.931,0:21:06.361
really rave all day about all of these,

0:21:06.690,0:21:08.694
because since I've started taking these,

0:21:08.913,0:21:10.977
I'm hooked and I've never been more

0:21:11.258,0:21:13.856
satisfied with my skin, my hair, and my

0:21:14.118,0:21:16.387
focus. Like, I feel like I'm genuinely

0:21:16.678,0:21:17.930
getting good results.

0:21:18.259,0:21:20.708
Care/of also has these wonderful powders

0:21:21.010,0:21:23.285
that I love. I love their Collagen,

0:21:23.547,0:21:26.225
seriously. I have tried other collagens

0:21:26.703,0:21:29.633
and I hated them. They wouldn't dissolve

0:21:29.906,0:21:31.898
in my coffee. They had a weird taste.

0:21:32.286,0:21:33.888
And like they would just change the

0:21:34.162,0:21:36.517
consistency of the coffee itself, like

0:21:36.758,0:21:38.626
it was horrible. This is very important

0:21:39.192,0:21:40.222
to me, like you guys don't even get it.

0:21:40.544,0:21:42.656

Thank you so much Care/Of for sponsoring

us today. And now, back to the video.

0:22:00.227,0:22:02.997
Welcome back! Now we're entering the calm

0:22:03.365,0:22:06.569
before the storm and what I mean by that

0:22:06.927,0:22:10.900
is that we are on the cusp of dramageddon

0:22:11.272,0:22:16.206
This is literally April 2019 and no one

0:22:16.470,0:22:19.901
had a single clue that the biggest drama

0:22:20.210,0:22:22.909
of the internet would ever see what about

0:22:23.201,0:22:26.202
to occur. Now, let me introduce to the

0:22:26.539,0:22:29.074
central characters of the dramageddon.

0:22:29.397,0:22:32.228
Ok, so here we have Tati Westbrook. She

0:22:32.449,0:22:34.427
was a beauty guru as well as James'

0:22:34.712,0:22:38.144
mentor and close friend. He even referred

0:22:38.431,0:22:41.210
to her as a mother figure. As you can see

0:22:41.492,0:22:43.460
here, this is James doing Tati's wedding

0:22:43.802,0:22:46.101
makeup like that's how like this was how

0:22:46.352,0:22:48.590
close they were and prior to these

0:22:48.830,0:22:51.382
coming events, Tati had started her own

0:22:51.662,0:22:55.399
supplement company in 2018 called Halo

0:22:55.726,0:22:58.332
Beauty, and they basically sold like hair

0:22:58.616,0:23:01.702
vitamins and skin vitamins, hoopla hoopla.

0:23:02.069,0:23:05.056
Enter Jeffree Star. If you don't know who

0:23:05.316,0:23:08.043
Jeffree Star is, he's probably in the top

0:23:08.379,0:23:11.833
10 worst people on the internet and to

0:23:12.139,0:23:15.048
fully explain why that is that would

0:23:15.297,0:23:17.106
require like a whole three hour video.

0:23:17.661,0:23:19.207
<i>inaudible</i>

0:23:19.403,0:23:21.281
he has a very successful makeup company

0:23:21.572,0:23:23.432
called "Jeffree Star Cosmetics" and his

0:23:23.668,0:23:26.299
channel at this time was massive in the

0:23:26.600,0:23:28.843
beauty community. However, not

0:23:29.088,0:23:32.105
as massive as James' and side note,

0:23:32.371,0:23:35.841
in 2024 he lives on a farm and sells yak

0:23:36.065,0:23:37.822
meat. So, there's that. Our last big

0:23:38.434,0:23:41.529
dramageddon figure is Shane Dodsen.

0:23:41.795,0:23:45.706
Shane is probably also on that top 10 list

0:23:45.968,0:23:48.145
of worse people online. Come to think of

0:23:48.447,0:23:50.890
it, James is too, but we will cross that

0:23:51.142,0:23:52.687
bridge when we get there. What is

0:23:52.910,0:23:54.860
important to know now though, is that in

0:23:55.378,0:23:59.353
landscape of 2019 YouTube, for some reason

0:23:59.633,0:24:01.780
Jane Dodsen, like a respected

0:24:02.368,0:24:05.546
documentarian, and he has just done a

0:24:05.766,0:24:08.160
documentary series about Jeffree Star.

0:24:08.465,0:24:10.613
Looking back on it, these videos were not

0:24:10.916,0:24:14.165
good and 60% of them were just like

0:24:14.377,0:24:16.311
filler but each and every one of them got

0:24:16.542,0:24:18.748
around 30 million views. With that it

0:24:19.000,0:24:22.250
mind, this brings us to Coachella 2019.

0:24:22.557,0:24:24.646
This is where is all kicks off dude.

0:24:24.919,0:24:27.748
During this time, James was "seeing" an

0:24:28.051,0:24:32.221
influencer named Gage Gomez. "Seeing" it

0:24:32.464,0:24:37.371
in air quotes because it was less of an

0:24:37.632,0:24:41.967
actual relationship and more of actual

0:24:42.240,0:24:44.254
like bicurious experimental time on Gage's

0:24:44.727,0:24:47.191
end, but they were photographed at this

0:24:47.483,0:24:49.760
Coachella multiple times, which made fans

0:24:50.009,0:24:51.996
start to speculate that James had a

0:24:52.249,0:24:54.138
boyfriend. And so, a lot of people began

0:24:54.481,0:24:57.237
to tweet James about this and he actually

0:24:57.505,0:24:59.342
responded to one of these tweets saying

0:24:59.600,0:25:02.403
something along the lines of "No. I'm

0:25:02.603,0:25:05.208
sadly still single. I was manipulated by

0:25:05.485,0:25:07.237
a conman." I looked everywhere for this

0:25:07.237,0:25:07.839
tweet and read it and writing down

0:25:08.469,0:25:10.284
every thing it said at this point but

0:25:10.597,0:25:12.335
can't find it anymore. So, sources that

0:25:12.620,0:25:15.244
trust me. James just subtweeted

0:25:15.527,0:25:17.480
that Gage, several times over the

0:25:18.009,0:25:20.179
Coachella weekend, including this one

0:25:20.440,0:25:22.829
which says, "I'm sitting sobbing in my

0:25:23.122,0:25:25.857
hotel room at 8 am and have to be on set

0:25:26.097,0:25:28.020
in an hour. This is no one's fault but

0:25:28.302,0:25:31.066
my own because my dumbass continues to

0:25:31.321,0:25:33.332
go for the same type of insecure cute

0:25:33.589,0:25:35.586
boys and it gets me hurt, every single

0:25:35.809,0:25:37.634
time. I was started fucking to hate

0:25:37.856,0:25:40.434
myself". Tensions are rising. Things are

0:25:40.718,0:25:43.439
bubbling up, ok. And the next day of the

0:25:43.676,0:25:46.660
festival, James ended up getting mobbed

0:25:46.987,0:25:49.746
by fans because for some reason he didn't

0:25:50.013,0:25:52.590
have like a VIP ticket which would have

0:25:52.881,0:25:54.866
let him in like exclusive spaces to not

0:25:55.135,0:25:58.944
be around so many fans. And so, all these

0:25:59.167,0:26:00.934
people are running up on him right. He is

0:26:01.157,0:26:02.991
like, holy shit, what do I do? And this

0:26:03.259,0:26:05.570
led him to text his friend and fellow

0:26:05.844,0:26:07.772
beauty guru, Nikita Dragon. And he asked

0:26:08.265,0:26:09.605
her for help about the sicky situation.

0:26:09.926,0:26:12.944
And so, she connects him to the Sugarbear

0:26:13.192,0:26:14.897
Hair Team, because they're had their

0:26:15.180,0:26:18.240
own VIP tent space, and they were going

0:26:18.502,0:26:20.418
to let James in and in exchange for him

0:26:20.675,0:26:23.656
doing just one Sugarbear Hair

0:26:23.948,0:26:26.284
ad on his Instagram story and so,

0:26:26.558,0:26:29.115
with no other choice, he signs the

0:26:29.313,0:26:31.151
contract and gets in that tent. But let

0:26:31.376,0:26:33.574
it be known that Sugarbear Hair was a

0:26:33.822,0:26:35.418
very popular was a very popular vitamin

0:26:35.705,0:26:39.277
brand as in Beauty Vitamins, as in for

0:26:39.822,0:26:42.781
your skin and face. A.K.A. a direct

0:26:43.090,0:26:44.901
competitor to Tati Westbrook's

0:26:45.160,0:26:48.541
brand "Halo Beauty" Dramageddon arrived!

0:26:48.864,0:26:52.396
Her story in the making. On April 22,

0:26:52.684,0:26:56.075
James posted his contraction obligated ad

0:26:56.406,0:26:59.026
on Instagram. Notably, as you can see

0:26:59.318,0:27:02.203
here, he's actually promoting their sleep

0:27:02.534,0:27:05.460
gummies, not their skin or hair ones. But

0:27:05.669,0:27:07.323
he does this and then he gets on a plane

0:27:07.581,0:27:09.584
to Australia. For what I am about to say

0:27:09.805,0:27:12.755
next, at this point in time Tati

0:27:13.015,0:27:17.466
Westbrook is 37 years old and James was

0:27:17.755,0:27:20.824
only 19. By the time James landed in

0:27:21.061,0:27:23.480
Australia, Tati had already posted

0:27:23.767,0:27:27.078
multiple stories of her crying and

0:27:27.470,0:27:29.547
saying she feels so betrayed by a close

0:27:29.818,0:27:31.834
friend and she had been taken advantage

0:27:32.056,0:27:34.649
by somebody she thought she can trust and

0:27:34.901,0:27:37.780
she helped so much and it was very

0:27:38.064,0:27:38.345
obvious, like that she was talking about

0:27:40.566,0:27:43.359
James. Like he literally just posted that

0:27:43.783,0:27:46.494
Sugarbear Hair ad so, people added two

0:27:46.879,0:27:49.737
plus two together so unbeknownst to James,

0:27:50.161,0:27:52.526
thousands and thousands of people had

0:27:52.776,0:27:55.163
begun adding him on Twitter, messaging

0:27:55.472,0:27:57.750
him on Instagram. People he knew were

0:27:58.080,0:27:59.579
sending him messages being like what's

0:27:59.850,0:28:01.689
going on with you and Tati. And so, he

0:28:01.931,0:28:03.165
gets off the plane, right. He sees this.

0:28:03.484,0:28:05.837
He tries to call Tati. He tries to text

0:28:06.208,0:28:07.745
her. He tries to call her husband.

0:28:08.049,0:28:10.118
Neither of them answers but Tati just

0:28:10.407,0:28:13.362
continues to post on Instagram. So, he

0:28:13.674,0:28:15.885
decides to just make a public

0:28:16.188,0:28:19.006
apology post. So the apology read," I want

0:28:19.335,0:28:21.448
to publicly apologize to my close friend

0:28:22.770,0:28:23.889
Tati. She has been like a mother to me

0:28:24.122,0:28:25.613
since before my first days in this

0:28:25.849,0:28:28.047
industry and has given me more love so

0:28:28.324,0:28:30.291
important resources and advice that I

0:28:30.536,0:28:33.402
could ever ask for. This weekend I did an

0:28:33.670,0:28:35.828
Instagram story for sleep vitamins that

0:28:36.112,0:28:38.841
I have been taking because the brand helps

0:28:39.314,0:28:40.700
me with security when the crowd around me

0:28:40.985,0:28:43.152
at Coachella became unsafe. I did not

0:28:43.434,0:28:45.315
accept any money for the post. As most

0:28:45.723,0:28:47.352
of you know, Tati has a vitamin brand

0:28:47.653,0:28:50.088
which I take on a daily basis but at the

0:28:50.764,0:28:53.497
moment, I did not think about the

0:28:53.801,0:28:56.008
competition, which was a major oversight.

0:28:56.384,0:28:58.916
I've supported Tati both online and off

0:28:59.220,0:29:01.339
like she has done for me and I am

0:29:01.642,0:29:03.545
devastated that I hurt somebody that I

0:29:03.833,0:29:06.331
truly love and have endless respect for".

0:29:06.646,0:29:10.255
I think the mature thing for 37-year-old

0:29:10.514,0:29:14.038
Tati to do after seeing this would be to

0:29:14.276,0:29:16.424
just talk to him, but instead she just

0:29:16.662,0:29:19.648
continued ignoring him and posting and

0:29:19.904,0:29:21.725
posting about this situation and crying

0:29:22.037,0:29:26.460
online. And so, a few days later on May 4,

0:29:26.767,0:29:30.562
2019, Gabriel Zamora, another beauty guru,

0:29:30.941,0:29:33.701
posted this video titled "Makeup and

0:29:33.928,0:29:36.375
Opinions". And during this video, he

0:29:36.643,0:29:39.786
indirectly talks about the drama going on

0:29:40.052,0:29:41.720
between Tati and James, saying that it's

0:29:41.971,0:29:43.918
stupid that basically, Tati keeps like

0:29:44.200,0:29:46.075
sub tweeting about him but won't

0:29:46.364,0:29:49.009
actually say what's going on or just talk

0:29:49.254,0:29:50.992
to him and he's honestly so right, like

0:29:51.253,0:29:53.532
this 37-year-old woman just implying that

0:29:53.825,0:29:56.756
her 19-year-old colleague has done

0:29:57.080,0:29:59.808
something awful for days on end but then

0:30:00.096,0:30:01.532
refuses to say anything about it

0:30:01.928,0:30:04.324
to divulge more information and so

0:30:04.623,0:30:07.021
Gabriel concludes this segment of the

0:30:07.278,0:30:10.547
video by saying "Girl, go sit on the

0:30:10.824,0:30:12.351
internet and talk about it then". And

0:30:12.677,0:30:15.857
those words would unknowingly be the

0:30:16.155,0:30:19.509
final straw, the final catalyst for the

0:30:19.983,0:30:22.964
video that we all know today as the

0:30:23.601,0:30:28.698
"Bye sister". "Bye sister" is one of the

0:30:29.003,0:30:33.424
most iconic YouTube videos of all time.

0:30:33.671,0:30:36.984
Seriously, the cultural impact of this

0:30:37.246,0:30:40.194
cannot be minimized. Cannot be silenced.

0:30:40.532,0:30:44.094
I still remember where I was when "Bye

0:30:44.446,0:30:46.427
Sister" happened. It was a cold, windy

0:30:46.681,0:30:50.861
day. On May 10th, 2019, when Tati decided

0:30:51.147,0:30:53.901
that she needed to spill the tea "on

0:30:54.187,0:30:57.324
James' Charles". This video is insane

0:30:57.663,0:30:59.939
from start <i>gulp</i> to finished. It begins

0:31:00.222,0:31:03.584
Gabriel Zamora's famous last words, "Girl,

0:31:03.895,0:31:06.104
go talk about it on the internet then".

0:31:06.366,0:31:07.562
"If you are going to go on the internet

0:31:07.807,0:31:09.208
and cry and heavily imply that there

0:31:09.461,0:31:10.697
a horrible human being

0:31:10.954,0:31:12.796
and everybody can get what it is.

0:31:13.060,0:31:14.088
Girl, sit on the internet

0:31:14.354,0:31:15.462
and talk about it then".

0:31:15.703,0:31:17.910
Imagine being the person that made this

0:31:18.250,0:31:19.874
happen. But there were three major

0:31:20.109,0:31:21.907
claims that Tati makes in this video

0:31:22.388,0:31:24.880
against James Charles and let's just

0:31:25.076,0:31:27.520
tackle them bullet point by bullet point.

0:31:27.978,0:31:31.100
First and foremost, she claims that James

0:31:31.723,0:31:34.299
purposefully sabotaged her vitamin gummy

0:31:34.637,0:31:37.348
business by preorchestrating the Sugarbear

0:31:37.642,0:31:40.402
hair contract. Two, that James' obnoxious

0:31:40.709,0:31:42.582
and talks about c*ck and balls.

0:31:43.438,0:31:46.884
Three, and the most serious one, is that

0:31:47.185,0:31:50.149
he tries to manipulate straight men. But

0:31:50.376,0:31:51.967
let's start off with the vitamins. Tati

0:31:52.193,0:31:54.326
lists multiple ways in which she

0:31:54.569,0:31:56.732
supported James over the years by pouring

0:31:57.015,0:31:59.238
over contracts for him, setting up his

0:31:59.524,0:32:01.289
Google add cent by him even after he

0:32:01.900,0:32:05.324
tweeted about Ebola. But despite all this

0:32:05.691,0:32:07.368
stuff that she's given him, she claims

0:32:07.641,0:32:10.613
James gave her no warning before he posted

0:32:10.903,0:32:13.477
his Sugarbear Hair ad, and also that he

0:32:13.973,0:32:17.424
actually made the whole Coachella security

0:32:17.692,0:32:19.583
thing up like he wasn't getting bombarded

0:32:19.896,0:32:21.910
by fans or anything. He just already

0:32:22.197,0:32:24.533
planned to do the Sugarbear Hair ad. Her

0:32:24.779,0:32:27.213
reasoning is that there is no way that a

0:32:27.473,0:32:29.519
company would ever just go out of their

0:32:29.832,0:32:32.743
way to give you a contract just like that.

0:32:32.972,0:32:35.810
And so, he has to be liying and even if

0:32:36.035,0:32:37.615
there was a security problem.

0:32:37.885,0:32:41.108
Even if he was getting rushed by fans, he

0:32:41.323,0:32:43.632
should have simply walked away.

0:32:43.917,0:32:45.928
You should have walked away. You should

0:32:46.141,0:32:47.346
have held on to your integrity.

0:32:47.577,0:32:49.511
You're phony. I know that now.

0:32:49.785,0:32:52.009
These are all really interesting things

0:32:52.255,0:32:55.012
to say because at the high of James' fame,

0:32:55.326,0:32:57.544
I would think that a lot of companies

0:32:57.787,0:32:59.643
might want to leap at the opportunity to

0:32:59.917,0:33:02.273
work with him. I also kind of love it and

0:33:02.490,0:33:04.226
I am kind of gagged by the way that she

0:33:04.496,0:33:07.091
just says "walk away from people mobbing

0:33:07.389,0:33:07.787
you."

0:33:08.157,0:33:09.685
A lot of people are like were like what

0:33:09.980,0:33:10.755
is he supposed to do. It's dangerous.

0:33:11.013,0:33:12.155
Like leave. Go home.

0:33:12.409,0:33:14.543
Why are you drowning? Just breathe.

0:33:15.006,0:33:16.678
Why are you getting cyberbullying?

0:33:16.941,0:33:19.345
Walk away from the computer. She goes on

0:33:19.556,0:33:21.468
to blame him for potentially losing

0:33:21.742,0:33:24.189
thousands and thousands of dollars due

0:33:24.397,0:33:26.612
to his Instagram ad. Because nobody is

0:33:26.833,0:33:28.590
going to buy two different brands of hair

0:33:29.032,0:33:29.617
gummies.

0:33:30.004,0:33:31.824
It's not a palette. It's not something

0:33:32.077,0:33:33.423
that people buy multiples of.

0:33:33.730,0:33:35.860
Then she then contradicts herself by

0:33:36.138,0:33:38.059
saying that she doesn't needs ads. She

0:33:38.364,0:33:40.668
doesn't want ads and her product is

0:33:40.969,0:33:41.983
selling like hotcakes

0:33:42.325,0:33:44.655
We're selling like hotcakes. Like I don't

0:33:44.921,0:33:46.687
need to at this point. It seems like I

0:33:47.287,0:33:49.553
am going on about this first bullet point

0:33:49.847,0:33:53.433
for a while. It's because the majority of

0:33:53.741,0:33:58.282
the video is actually about the gummy

0:33:58.507,0:34:00.157
vitamins. She claims that James said

0:34:00.426,0:34:03.219
he couldn't advertise for halo beauty on

0:34:03.449,0:34:05.491
his channel because he had too many young

0:34:05.764,0:34:07.929
fans watching and he didn't want to like

0:34:08.195,0:34:10.132
market them supplements and so, she's

0:34:10.364,0:34:13.225
like "But here you are on your Instagram

0:34:13.524,0:34:17.098
story, selling sleep pills to kids which

0:34:17.352,0:34:21.782
is <i>whoa</i> thats a reach. Ma'am, these are

0:34:22.068,0:34:23.413
melatonin gummies.

0:34:23.705,0:34:25.839
Moving on to the fucking c*ck and balls

0:34:26.134,0:34:28.447
and straight boy allegation section.

0:34:28.760,0:34:31.073
Unfortunately, those two things are

0:34:31.365,0:34:35.291
interlinked in this video. So that's why

0:34:35.539,0:34:36.672
I'm roping them together. It's not

0:34:36.915,0:34:37.823
that I'm not taking

0:34:38.073,0:34:39.736
the last one seriously. It's that

0:34:39.945,0:34:42.116
Tati has... Tati has done this to me.

0:34:42.497,0:34:46.143
Tati claims that James tried to manipulate

0:34:46.337,0:34:48.431
a waiter at her birthday dinner into

0:34:48.690,0:34:51.400
thinking he was gay. She also claims that

0:34:51.626,0:34:54.531
he was saying very loudly explicit things

0:34:54.780,0:34:56.581
that he wanted to do to him.

0:34:56.885,0:34:58.931
But what was most shocking to her was the

0:34:59.209,0:35:01.603
fact that he was willing to talk about

0:35:01.827,0:35:04.546
all this in front of her family and his

0:35:04.777,0:35:06.573
own parents which is why we get the

0:35:06.831,0:35:09.744
iconic sucking d<i>ck and c</i>ck line.

0:35:10.047,0:35:11.176
Sucking and dick and cock. Like

0:35:11.446,0:35:13.184
I'm just like Oh my God

0:35:13.424,0:35:15.166
time and place and you did it at my

0:35:15.413,0:35:16.150
birthday dinner.

0:35:16.401,0:35:18.478
She claims she told James to leave the

0:35:18.681,0:35:20.444
waiter alone and that he was straight.

0:35:20.712,0:35:22.962
And in response he said it doesn't

0:35:23.204,0:35:25.039
matter. I'm famous. She concludes the

0:35:25.345,0:35:27.228
video with talking about some other

0:35:27.495,0:35:30.766
vague instances of James trying to

0:35:31.047,0:35:33.165
manipulate straight men and claims that

0:35:33.368,0:35:34.921
the only reason why she's posting this

0:35:35.212,0:35:37.545
is because it's a last ditch effort to get

0:35:37.786,0:35:39.750
through to him so that he will stop

0:35:40.034,0:35:42.668
trying to manipulate and seduce these

0:35:42.937,0:35:44.643
straight men. Okay, let me just do a

0:35:44.909,0:35:47.208
quick disclaimer here. I'm going to be

0:35:47.504,0:35:50.011
treating the bye sister allegations as

0:35:50.378,0:35:53.144
their own separate thing. Not really

0:35:53.391,0:35:55.914
trying to connect them to further

0:35:56.167,0:35:58.196
allegations because I feel like that will

0:35:58.439,0:36:01.134
get very crazy and twisted and that is

0:36:01.387,0:36:03.534
not what I want because a lot of bye

0:36:03.782,0:36:06.378
sister, as you will see, gets debunked.

0:36:06.628,0:36:08.794
Where as in the future. there are actual

0:36:09.322,0:36:14.088
victims that James like has with reciepts

0:36:14.373,0:36:15.823
So I don't want Dramageddon

0:36:16.070,0:36:17.138
and like that world

0:36:17.568,0:36:19.761
intermixing out of respect.

0:36:20.047,0:36:23.019
And so, with that in mind, we

0:36:23.250,0:36:24.609
need to talk a little bit more about the

0:36:24.818,0:36:27.321
elephant in the room with bye sister and

0:36:27.588,0:36:30.717
that is that Tati spent the majority of

0:36:30.981,0:36:34.134
video talking about her beef with James,

0:36:34.430,0:36:37.316
with the vitamins, but then in the end

0:36:37.574,0:36:40.254
claims that she making this video because

0:36:40.515,0:36:42.658
of the sexual ab*use allegations.

0:36:42.994,0:36:45.976
Including but not limited to the sexual

0:36:46.223,0:36:48.117
harrassment of the waiter at the

0:36:48.383,0:36:50.371
restaurant. Also just have to mention

0:36:50.615,0:36:52.565
it, I don't know if you noticed this but

0:36:52.815,0:36:56.625
the Jeffree Star Lipsticks sitting in the

0:36:56.873,0:36:59.997
background of this video. Oh My God!

0:37:00.418,0:37:04.044
Move over classic literature writers.

0:37:04.310,0:37:07.392
That is the best foreshadowing I've ever

0:37:07.640,0:37:11.168
seen. Regardless, the immediate public

0:37:11.480,0:37:15.121
response to bye sister was cateclismic.

0:37:15.716,0:37:17.783
The video quickly accumulated 30 million

0:37:18.045,0:37:22.287
views and a trend sparked within the hour

0:37:22.707,0:37:25.564
of burning or destroying your James'

0:37:26.441,0:37:28.263
Morphe palatte . There are many of these

0:37:28.485,0:37:31.029
compilations. This one alone is 10 minutes

0:37:31.307,0:37:33.772
straight of people just destroying their

0:37:33.975,0:37:35.587
James Morphe palatte. James Charles

0:37:36.765,0:37:39.473
is over party was trending on Twitter.

0:37:39.795,0:37:42.078
My personal memory of this is

0:37:42.300,0:37:44.621
going on Snapchat and seeing on

0:37:44.941,0:37:46.834
one of my friend's stories that there was

0:37:47.122,0:37:50.202
a line out the door at my local Ulta

0:37:50.547,0:37:52.689
of girls were just returning the

0:37:52.954,0:37:55.381
James' palette. I really, really wish I

0:37:55.661,0:37:56.782
could have found footage of that because

0:37:57.042,0:37:59.119
it contributes to a bigger picture here

0:37:59.401,0:38:02.276
and that is, I think, everybody had a

0:38:02.532,0:38:04.479
little bit of mass hysteria with this

0:38:04.772,0:38:07.510
because I have just never seen people

0:38:07.821,0:38:09.956
react in the way people reacted

0:38:10.241,0:38:13.098
to bye sister. Like people have done other

0:38:13.339,0:38:16.141
alleged things that are of equivalent or

0:38:16.408,0:38:19.730
worse and we have not seen

0:38:20.002,0:38:20.937
something like this

0:38:21.150,0:38:23.839
happen. Anyways, within all this havoc,

0:38:24.146,0:38:27.470
later that night James post an apology

0:38:27.731,0:38:30.650
video simply titled "Tati". This is a nine

0:38:30.958,0:38:33.641
minute video but I am willing to bet the

0:38:33.917,0:38:36.628
actual amount of talking in it is more so

0:38:37.024,0:38:39.023
around like four because in it,

0:38:39.274,0:38:42.375
James is very clearly jetlagged and

0:38:42.645,0:38:45.853
tired like he's whispering. He's talking

0:38:46.218,0:38:47.585
really slow.

0:38:47.954,0:38:52.504
I met Tati.

0:38:52.900,0:38:55.311
Not only that, he only apologizes

0:38:55.678,0:38:57.650
for disrespecting Tati. He doesn't

0:38:57.924,0:39:02.234
confirm or deny any other allegations. he

0:39:02.472,0:39:04.427
just needs to be more careful of his

0:39:04.739,0:39:06.379
relationships in the future in the

0:39:06.628,0:39:10.154
public eye. And so, posts and to say that

0:39:10.426,0:39:13.859
people um didn't receive it well would be

0:39:14.220,0:39:15.948
a flub. it would be a lil flub.

0:39:16.280,0:39:18.769
As soon as video dropped, a ton of

0:39:19.080,0:39:20.402
channels began to live

0:39:20.686,0:39:23.581
streaming. The live sub count of James

0:39:23.889,0:39:26.887
Charles losing thousands and thousands

0:39:27.180,0:39:29.421
and thousands of subscribers meanwhile,

0:39:29.776,0:39:33.290
showing Tati gaining subs. I'm not joking

0:39:33.570,0:39:34.696
with you guys when I say, there was

0:39:34.920,0:39:37.332
probably like 300 of these channels all

0:39:37.601,0:39:41.837
active at once and in the live chat people

0:39:42.156,0:39:45.197
were goading them on like a sports event

0:39:45.549,0:39:49.055
before terminally online makeup girlies

0:39:49.403,0:39:51.753
At least partially because of these

0:39:52.050,0:39:54.901
live sub trackers, James Charles would

0:39:55.173,0:39:58.270
become the first Youtuber to lose one

0:39:58.616,0:40:02.876
million subscribers in one day. There were

0:40:03.142,0:40:05.520
a ton of memes about the Tati apology

0:40:05.936,0:40:08.226
video floating around and let's just

0:40:08.455,0:40:10.840
say all of the breathing in it did not

0:40:11.137,0:40:12.005
help the case.

0:40:12.300,0:40:17.305
*breathing

0:40:17.554,0:40:19.847
Meanwhile, a ton of people started chiming

0:40:20.153,0:40:21.939
in about the situation on Twitter and

0:40:22.243,0:40:25.238
even just kind of making things up to

0:40:25.477,0:40:28.190
insert themselves into the conversation

0:40:28.529,0:40:30.155
because it was so trendy.

0:40:30.537,0:40:33.414
For example, the singer Zara Larson posted

0:40:33.691,0:40:34.574
this tweet that said

0:40:34.845,0:40:36.812
"I'm cackling cause he hit up my

0:40:37.159,0:40:39.013
boyfriend in the dms several times

0:40:39.307,0:40:41.519
knowing damn well he's straight".

0:40:41.786,0:40:43.839
She would later go on to apologize for

0:40:44.082,0:40:46.415
that because she didn't realize that he

0:40:48.799,0:40:49.624
had only sent her boyfriend one message.

0:40:50.970,0:40:53.361
There was also some person making the

0:40:53.549,0:40:55.302
claim that in high school, James had

0:40:55.834,0:40:57.502
catfished the entire football team just

0:40:57.502,0:40:57.910
to trick them into sending him d*** pics,

0:41:01.072,0:41:04.253
which I mean, it's a wild claim.

0:41:04.517,0:41:06.782
I'm not saying impossible but it's

0:41:07.041,0:41:08.450
f******* wild, I'll say that.

0:41:08.686,0:41:10.770
At this point, people also mass

0:41:11.021,0:41:13.724
unfollowing James on Instagram, as well,

0:41:13.985,0:41:16.583
and some of the people unfollowed him

0:41:16.859,0:41:19.066
include people like the Kardashians,

0:41:19.429,0:41:21.900
Demi Lavato, Ariana Grande....

0:41:22.189,0:41:24.814
But most importantly to all of this, is

0:41:25.120,0:41:27.883
the fact that every single one of the

0:41:28.103,0:41:29.816
members of the sister squad unfollowed

0:41:30.081,0:41:32.814
him which affectively ended it.

0:41:33.082,0:41:35.778
The next day, May 14th, Gage Gomez

0:41:36.105,0:41:38.495
uploads a video titled " My first

0:41:38.800,0:41:41.464
YouTube video" and in it he talks about

0:41:41.716,0:41:44.483
how James having sub tweeted him had

0:41:44.764,0:41:47.922
actually, caused a shit ton of his fans to

0:41:48.223,0:41:51.198
his page and start threatening him and

0:41:51.490,0:41:53.698
harassing him. He also says that James

0:41:54.055,0:41:57.225
realized that these sub tweets were wrong

0:41:57.755,0:41:59.580
because he ended up apologizing to him

0:41:59.840,0:42:02.244
and deleting them, but essentially he just

0:42:02.539,0:42:04.219
wanted to clear his name out of this.

0:42:04.556,0:42:07.031
Confusingly though, shortly after this

0:42:07.339,0:42:09.807
video was posted he went on a Instagram

0:42:10.123,0:42:12.568
live stream and when somebody asked him

0:42:12.886,0:42:15.445
if he was single he said that he had just

0:42:15.807,0:42:18.099
been dumped and seemed to imply that

0:42:18.390,0:42:21.162
it was either James or related to James

0:42:21.832,0:42:22.598
in some way.

0:42:22.985,0:42:25.604
Someone by the little name of, um

0:42:25.995,0:42:28.884
I'm not gonna say it. It starts with a J.

0:42:29.196,0:42:31.327
What makes this even more convulated to

0:42:31.621,0:42:34.495
is that I found out on one of the days

0:42:34.794,0:42:36.660
that James was at Coachella, he went to

0:42:36.984,0:42:39.957
brunch with this guy named DIllon Gike

0:42:40.284,0:42:41.493
I think and the *gasp it all is, is that

0:42:41.830,0:42:47.057
this person Dillon is Gage's friend and

0:42:47.388,0:42:50.311
speculated more than friend. So there's

0:42:50.631,0:42:52.976
that interesting thing. Then Dillon would

0:42:53.292,0:42:57.019
comment on Gage's page calling clout

0:42:57.323,0:42:59.207
chaser. I don't know what kind of friend

0:42:59.535,0:43:02.290
dynamics or anything more happening here,

0:43:02.636,0:43:06.806
but it made me very confused about Gage's

0:43:07.105,0:43:10.983
stance in all of this. Shortly after that

0:43:11.250,0:43:13.039
live stream though Gage would post

0:43:13.380,0:43:15.904
another video that just made me even more

0:43:16.174,0:43:19.066
confused because in this video he said

0:43:19.392,0:43:21.321
that James tried to manipulate him to

0:43:21.650,0:43:24.393
thinking he was gay, even after telling

0:43:24.655,0:43:27.681
that he was straight multiple times but

0:43:27.947,0:43:30.420
James kept pursuing him. I have

0:43:30.695,0:43:33.195
nothing more to say about this video even

0:43:33.459,0:43:35.034
though I totally believe it could have

0:43:35.261,0:43:37.321
happened but also, I am confused.

0:43:37.554,0:43:40.712
*Popping noise

0:43:40.953,0:43:41.655
Alrighty, Here we are.

0:43:41.907,0:43:43.523
I am just a little bit lost in it all.

0:43:43.787,0:43:44.455
Let's move on.

0:43:44.723,0:43:47.466
While all this is going on, Ian Jeffree,

0:43:47.848,0:43:50.817
A.K.A. James' little brother tweets out

0:43:51.211,0:43:53.524
" Why does everyone act so tough over the

0:43:53.691,0:43:54.065
internet".

0:43:54.336,0:43:57.688
And Jeffree Star chimes in within A.K.

0:43:57.934,0:44:01.084
47 for no reason he says

0:44:01.375,0:44:03.330
"Why is your brother a predator?? Why'd

0:44:03.526,0:44:06.079
you really move back to NYC? Exactly.

0:44:06.409,0:44:08.008
Shut the f*** up".

0:44:08.261,0:44:11.232
For context, I guess Ian had moved back

0:44:11.497,0:44:14.220
to New York City to be with their parents

0:44:14.483,0:44:17.575
recently, but saying this to a 17-year-old

0:44:17.865,0:44:20.762
that probably has no idea what you are

0:44:20.986,0:44:23.521
talking about. It's so Jeffree Star. Like,

0:44:23.768,0:44:26.421
at least he stays on brand like he just

0:44:26.693,0:44:29.040
continues to be a bad person.

0:44:29.281,0:44:30.991
But Jeffree ended up continuing he said,

0:44:31.242,0:44:33.618
"There is a reason why I haven't seen him

0:44:33.888,0:44:37.114
since Tati's birthday in February. He is a

0:44:37.408,0:44:39.874
danger to society. Everything that Tati

0:44:40.083,0:44:41.647
said is 100% true.

0:44:42.231,0:44:44.162
On the same day as these tweets, Sam,

0:44:44.595,0:44:47.704
the waiter from Tati's birthday party.

0:44:47.934,0:44:48.679
"Sucking a dick and cock"

0:44:48.913,0:44:52.113
Posted a video explaining his side of the

0:44:52.295,0:44:54.839
story and basically, Sam explains that

0:44:55.038,0:44:58.043
James had asked another one of the waiters

0:44:58.379,0:45:01.397
for his number and if he would was single.

0:45:01.704,0:45:04.167
He also complimented him on the way

0:45:04.412,0:45:06.163
that he looked. Since he didn't get his

0:45:06.450,0:45:08.463
number, he left the restaurant and that

0:45:08.773,0:45:11.674
was that but later that night, Sam's

0:45:11.954,0:45:15.789
sister convinced him to dm James and talk

0:45:16.108,0:45:18.533
to him again and so, he did and they

0:45:18.805,0:45:20.579
started talking. James apologizes for

0:45:20.911,0:45:23.299
flirting with him. At this point he

0:45:23.556,0:45:25.506
actually found it flattering.

0:45:25.791,0:45:28.658
The conversation escalated until James

0:45:28.941,0:45:32.094
invited him to his hotel room, and since

0:45:32.362,0:45:36.058
Sam says he is bicurious he went to

0:45:36.398,0:45:37.698
go meet up with him. He says

0:45:37.945,0:45:39.250
they ended up making out for around

0:45:39.462,0:45:41.792
an hour at the hotel and that James'

0:45:42.300,0:45:45.526
is the worst kind of kisser he's ever had.

0:45:45.876,0:45:46.753
It's just...

0:45:47.221,0:45:48.563
If I am being honest, he is the worst

0:45:49.035,0:45:51.026
kisser I've ever kissed. Way too much

0:45:51.318,0:45:53.479
tongue. He then goes on to say that James

0:45:53.767,0:45:56.416
begged him to stay in the hotel with him

0:45:56.766,0:45:59.307
but because he did not enjoy the kissing,

0:45:59.628,0:46:02.031
he decided to leave anyways. And now the

0:46:02.488,0:46:05.233
following week, James offered to fly Sam

0:46:05.464,0:46:08.035
out to California for his birthday, but

0:46:08.368,0:46:10.290
Sam told him that he figured out that he

0:46:10.613,0:46:12.928
was pretty much straight so it wouldn't be

0:46:13.189,0:46:15.043
right for him to accept the invitation. At

0:46:15.313,0:46:17.520
which point James became upset and told

0:46:17.790,0:46:20.004
him that he was not straight and that

0:46:20.294,0:46:21.812
he hoped that he would figure that out

0:46:22.129,0:46:25.264
sooner than later. The TLDR at the end of

0:46:25.631,0:46:28.208
this video is that the last draw for Sam

0:46:28.506,0:46:31.739
to cut contact off with James was finding

0:46:32.031,0:46:35.201
out he was also talking to Gage at the

0:46:35.532,0:46:37.880
same time meaning that he thought that

0:46:38.227,0:46:41.781
he was playing two straight guys at once.

0:46:42.086,0:46:45.645
On May 13th, Nikita Dragon jumps back into

0:46:45.998,0:46:48.905
Dramageddon and tweets out strange shots

0:46:49.227,0:46:51.725
between her and James Charles. She's

0:46:51.973,0:46:53.562
trying to back him up, trying to be like

0:46:53.884,0:46:55.843
"See, it really did happen guys",

0:46:56.151,0:46:59.126
like he was getting bombarded at Coachella

0:46:59.424,0:47:01.615
but this really only made things worse,

0:47:01.920,0:47:04.375
because after Tati's video, everyone

0:47:04.628,0:47:07.014
really believed that James had reached

0:47:07.283,0:47:09.592
out to Sugarbear Hair in a pre-planned

0:47:09.896,0:47:12.368
effort, not to mention that she didn't

0:47:12.641,0:47:15.102
bring up the straight boy allegations so

0:47:15.356,0:47:16.956
people were really clowning on her for

0:47:17.367,0:47:19.223
this. She posted a YouTube video the

0:47:19.457,0:47:21.525
following day titled "What really

0:47:21.809,0:47:23.963
happened" and this made plenty of fans

0:47:24.267,0:47:26.494
click on the video expecting her to

0:47:26.701,0:47:28.595
talk about James and Tati situation

0:47:28.853,0:47:30.284
because, of course, what else could this

0:47:30.569,0:47:33.314
be about and, mind you, I haven't actually

0:47:33.593,0:47:36.227
watched this video completely, scrubbed

0:47:36.572,0:47:38.523
from the internet. Cannot find it

0:47:38.821,0:47:41.304
anywhere. But apparently instead of

0:47:41.616,0:47:43.929
addressing anything relevant, she just

0:47:44.225,0:47:46.184
makes a general statement about mean

0:47:46.837,0:47:49.466
comments and then plugs her beauty brand

0:47:49.783,0:47:51.946
for the last, like five minutes. Which

0:47:52.312,0:47:54.467
goes to show how much people

0:47:54.741,0:47:57.185
were capitalizing off this beef. I mean

0:47:57.461,0:48:00.364
Nikita Dragon was literally just there at

0:48:00.647,0:48:03.335
Coachella with James. She could have said

0:48:03.639,0:48:05.568
something about the subject but

0:48:05.876,0:48:07.886
she was like I'm gonna get into this with

0:48:08.167,0:48:10.647
my Dragon Beauty brand. This same night,

0:48:10.943,0:48:12.934
Jeffree Star goes out on Snapchat and

0:48:13.243,0:48:15.487
starts talking about how he has crazy

0:48:15.836,0:48:18.565
receipts on James and he's going to be

0:48:18.862,0:48:22.106
exposing him very soon and I have to say

0:48:22.671,0:48:25.175
this is probably my least favorite thing

0:48:25.465,0:48:27.634
that Jeffrey does all the time is that I

0:48:28.193,0:48:30.954
feel like actually does have crazy

0:48:31.248,0:48:34.346
blackmail against people but he only ever

0:48:34.657,0:48:37.682
uses it for self-interest, Like he's like

0:48:38.429,0:48:39.989
he has something insane like crazy

0:48:40.270,0:48:42.761
proof that James Charles has done

0:48:43.020,0:48:45.200
something beyond the pale that we don't

0:48:45.441,0:48:47.423
even know about yet. The only way

0:48:47.708,0:48:49.468
he would leak it is if it was in his

0:48:50.085,0:48:50.597
own benefit,

0:48:50.872,0:48:52.746
On May 17th, Tati Westbrook post another

0:48:53.366,0:48:55.779
video addressing this whole situation

0:48:56.038,0:48:59.162
called "Why I did it" and for some reason

0:48:59.473,0:49:00.887
this video hasn't been archived.

0:49:01.239,0:49:02.837
I was only able to watch someone else's

0:49:03.127,0:49:05.413
reaction of it but basically gist that I

0:49:05.700,0:49:08.724
got was this was just her doubling down on

0:49:09.013,0:49:11.511
what she has said previously, only now she

0:49:11.805,0:49:14.517
wishes people wouldn't pick sides on what

0:49:14.787,0:49:15.490
between her and James.

0:49:15.755,0:49:17.563
But little did everyone know that that

0:49:17.832,0:49:20.366
the next day on May 18th, James would

0:49:20.619,0:49:23.096
upload "No More Lies", which is probably

0:49:23.410,0:49:26.355
the internet's biggest uno reverse.

0:49:26.662,0:49:29.797
Which nobody claims in bisister and so

0:49:30.159,0:49:32.745
many debunkinings and not debunkinings

0:49:33.062,0:49:34.812
happening in "No More Lies".

0:49:35.117,0:49:36.865
We are just going to take it category by

0:49:37.146,0:49:38.969
category again. No More claims state

0:49:39.208,0:49:41.479
of claim. Firstly, she said the ad was

0:49:42.021,0:49:43.870
preorchestrated. It was that Jamas talked

0:49:44.537,0:49:49.070
to the Sugarbear hair team on the grounds

0:49:49.366,0:49:51.799
at Coachella, Two, James didn't give her

0:49:52.359,0:49:54.479
any warning before he put up the ad.

0:49:54.727,0:49:56.790
He only says something after which was not

0:49:57.041,0:49:59.497
the case. He had screenshots of the text

0:49:59.757,0:50:01.874
message where he warned her in advance

0:50:02.219,0:50:05.386
and to which she replied "I'm so hurt"

0:50:05.672,0:50:08.114
and he gave a lengthy apology.

0:50:08.401,0:50:11.056
Three, she said James said he wouldn't

0:50:11.274,0:50:13.912
talk about Halo Beauty on social media or

0:50:14.174,0:50:15.457
his channel because he didn't want to

0:50:15.709,0:50:17.967
promote supplements to young kids.

0:50:18.555,0:50:20.662
This is a really weird and strange lie.

0:50:20.913,0:50:23.312
Like he promoted Halo Beauty multiple

0:50:23.560,0:50:25.825
times and across his social media pages.

0:50:26.079,0:50:29.522
So, I am trying to understand Tati, I am

0:50:29.748,0:50:31.676
trying why to lie about maniscule things.

0:50:31.958,0:50:39.796
*Inaudible

0:50:39.796,0:50:40.207
Another one of Tati's claims was that

0:50:41.746,0:50:44.415
James had been using his power, influence

0:50:45.199,0:50:48.176
and money in order to extort sexual

0:50:48.517,0:50:52.055
favors to people to manipulate them and J

0:50:52.313,0:50:53.574
James admits that he is a 19-year-old

0:50:53.889,0:50:56.456
virgin and that isn't the case because he

0:50:56.714,0:50:59.331
is not fuckin but I will say this. At

0:50:59.584,0:51:00.797
12:40 in this video he says

0:51:01.065,0:51:03.424
"We'll never use my fame, money, or

0:51:03.669,0:51:05.768
power to manipulate or get any sexual

0:51:06.139,0:51:07.088
actions from a guy",

0:51:07.348,0:51:10.678
Which did not age well. When it comes to

0:51:10.947,0:51:12.425
this allegation in the James Charles

0:51:12.740,0:51:14.999
timeline, I have a little bit of a

0:51:15.263,0:51:17.107
question mark over it because I am not

0:51:17.357,0:51:20.561
sure how much damage he had done at age

0:51:20.814,0:51:24.045
19. But from what we know about Gage and

0:51:24.345,0:51:27.061
Sam, the waiter, there were some strange

0:51:27.385,0:51:29.753
tendencies already at play.

0:51:30.058,0:51:32.434
Another claim Tati had was at her birthday

0:51:32.704,0:51:34.947
dinner she had tried to tell James the

0:51:35.192,0:51:37.076
waiter was straight and to leave him alone

0:51:37.345,0:51:39.837
He replied saying it doesn't matter. I'm

0:51:40.067,0:51:42.388
so famous, right? Well , it turns out

0:51:42.651,0:51:45.466
that was actually a lie as well, because

0:51:45.701,0:51:47.646
there are screenshots of James and all

0:51:47.914,0:51:50.555
of his friends including Tati making the

0:51:50.895,0:51:53.257
same joke where they say "We're so famous"

0:51:53.547,0:51:56.206
like definitely it was not supposed to be

0:51:56.448,0:51:58.281
a serious thing. Again, really

0:51:58.543,0:52:00.345
interesting. I don't understand the

0:52:00.624,0:52:03.303
choices to lie about something so petty,

0:52:03.541,0:52:05.101
especially when you are overall message

0:52:05.392,0:52:07.366
was supposed to be about something as

0:52:07.607,0:52:10.173
serious as like sexual misconduct

0:52:10.476,0:52:12.583
allegations. And speaking of Sam, the

0:52:12.838,0:52:14.363
waiter, James has screenshots of their

0:52:14.658,0:52:17.043
conversations as well. And in these

0:52:17.310,0:52:19.235
screenshots you can clearly see that

0:52:19.496,0:52:21.569
Same had actually told him straight up

0:52:21.839,0:52:24.471
that he was bisexual. So this is where it

0:52:24.733,0:52:26.392
gets kind of interesting cause Sam didn't

0:52:26.649,0:52:28.444
mentioned this in his side of the story.

0:52:28.733,0:52:30.166
After they agreed to stop their

0:52:30.427,0:52:31.903
relationship, James had blocked him.

0:52:32.415,0:52:34.491
And after this, Sam had used his friend's

0:52:34.764,0:52:38.293
phone to DM James from his account and

0:52:38.619,0:52:42.238
blocked and why he actually figured out

0:52:42.449,0:52:43.438
that he was full gay so that he could get

0:52:43.663,0:52:46.048
him on a FaceTime call and record him.

0:52:46.366,0:52:48.531
Instead of talking to James about his gay

0:52:48.801,0:52:51.302
revelation, he asked James if he was

0:52:51.616,0:52:53.871
talking to Gage at the same time that they

0:52:54.197,0:52:56.036
were talking. At this point, Sam told

0:52:56.579,0:52:58.339
James that he wasn't actually gay. He was

0:52:58.574,0:53:00.037
just trying to get him on this phone call

0:53:00.413,0:53:03.297
and so James hung up. But then, after the

0:53:03.596,0:53:05.995
call, Sam text him that he basically

0:53:06.284,0:53:08.792
confirmed bi, which it why in Sam's video

0:53:09.102,0:53:11.146
you saw the screenshot of James saying

0:53:11.456,0:53:13.515
that you are not straight, You are not

0:53:13.766,0:53:14.515
ever going to be straight. The sooner you

0:53:14.846,0:53:16.862
figure that out the better, etc. Now

0:53:17.184,0:53:19.963
outside of Tati's allegations, Jeffree

0:53:20.234,0:53:22.595
Star had personally been texted James

0:53:22.918,0:53:25.363
that he had a bunch a dirt on him and

0:53:25.607,0:53:27.474
that he was gonna expose him for various

0:53:27.773,0:53:30.036
things sooner or later, And so, at this

0:53:30.353,0:53:31.667
point in "No More Lies", we start to

0:53:31.946,0:53:34.619
address that. And so Jeffree's claims are

0:53:34.887,0:53:37.504
as follows: Number one: that James has

0:53:37.776,0:53:39.648
been talking shit about him. Number two:

0:53:40.194,0:53:42.265
that James had to try to Jeffree's

0:53:42.507,0:53:44.334
brother in law to like him and sent him

0:53:44.634,0:53:47.050
unsolicited, inappropriate pictures. And

0:53:47.401,0:53:50.268
thirdly, James trapped Sam the the waiter

0:53:50.586,0:53:52.728
in his hotel and that they were all gonna

0:53:53.081,0:53:55.129
get together and film a video about how

0:53:55.447,0:53:59.649
that happened and expose. Lastly, and

0:53:59.982,0:54:02.393
this is the craziest one that he had tried

0:54:02.624,0:54:05.286
to touch and molest Grayson Dolan in his

0:54:05.559,0:54:07.855
sleep and made him uncomfortable for

0:54:08.154,0:54:10.484
months. James' rebuttal to these claims

0:54:10.793,0:54:13.279
were that he had only talked to Jeffree's

0:54:13.570,0:54:16.454
brother-in-law a handful of times and

0:54:16.704,0:54:18.727
it was nothing inappropriate. And next,

0:54:18.970,0:54:21.041
the trapping Sam in the hotel room thing

0:54:21.306,0:54:23.316
we know is not true because Sam. himself,

0:54:23.610,0:54:25.799
said so. And then finally, the rebuttal

0:54:26.063,0:54:28.647
for the most serious and crazy allegation

0:54:28.925,0:54:31.176
is that this is simply not true and that

0:54:31.424,0:54:33.212
the rejection jokes that was in the

0:54:33.442,0:54:34.975
sister's squad videos were pretty much

0:54:35.349,0:54:37.507
all staged. James also claims that the

0:54:37.748,0:54:40.034
Dolan twins were among the first to call

0:54:40.274,0:54:42.168
him and make sure he was alright and

0:54:42.423,0:54:44.907
during the initial bisister of the

0:54:45.367,0:54:46.933
dramageddon of it all. There weren't any

0:54:47.135,0:54:48.790
receipts for that. We don't really know

0:54:49.093,0:54:51.630
what happened between them and neither

0:54:51.916,0:54:54.383
of the Dolan twins ever refollowed James,

0:54:54.730,0:54:57.518
so there is that as well. We'll talk a

0:54:57.771,0:54:59.332
little bit more about the Dolans later

0:54:59.606,0:55:01.445
on. But all in all, "No More Lies"

0:55:01.732,0:55:04.092
changed the YouTube landscape for weeks

0:55:04.442,0:55:06.884
and flipped the entire situation on it's

0:55:07.126,0:55:09.049
head. Like, never in my life have I seen

0:55:09.313,0:55:12.064
people switch up this fast before. And

0:55:12.311,0:55:14.359
despite every body being this initially

0:55:14.587,0:55:15.909
being on Tati's side in all of this,

0:55:16.187,0:55:17.811
right after this video dropped, his

0:55:18.038,0:55:19.730
subscriber account rise again and

0:55:19.994,0:55:24.455
meanwhile, Tati's began to fall. Speaking

0:55:24.720,0:55:26.987
of Tati, her immediate reponse to "No More

0:55:27.261,0:55:29.507
Lies" was to get on Twitter and say

0:55:29.892,0:55:30.554
things like this:

0:55:30.884,0:55:32.827
I have left town on a digital break to

0:55:33.075,0:55:36.465
heal and pray for healing on all sides. My

0:55:36.719,0:55:38.312
family made me aware on what was just

0:55:38.553,0:55:40.468
posted and I am disappointed ro see

0:55:40.745,0:55:42.856
it littered with so many lies and half

0:55:43.165,0:55:46.883
truths. I stand by my videos. Do not twist

0:55:47.175,0:55:49.474
my words to what they are not, hear the

0:55:49.776,0:55:50.464
message.

0:55:50.833,0:55:52.594
Dudes, can I be totally honest with you

0:55:52.957,0:55:55.067
guys right now? The way Tati speaks

0:55:55.355,0:55:58.179
like she's the Buddhist monk pisses me

0:55:58.449,0:56:00.408
off! She also posted a couple of

0:56:00.622,0:56:02.184
other Tweets but they basicaaly said the

0:56:02.453,0:56:04.725
same exact thing like, "Praying on all

0:56:04.978,0:56:07.423
sides", "Peace and love" da ba duh

0:56:07.695,0:56:09.809
Then she goes on to like a novel length

0:56:10.092,0:56:12.740
post and the TLDR that I give you says:

0:56:13.009,0:56:15.680
"I spent all the last few years building

0:56:16.142,0:56:18.584
up a career on honesty, integrity and

0:56:18.847,0:56:20.678
truth. But let me tell you guys that

0:56:20.989,0:56:23.767
Tati is a makeup reviewer. She basically

0:56:24.028,0:56:25.768
says things like "I hope that our

0:56:26.119,0:56:28.402
community is somehow strengthened from

0:56:28.657,0:56:30.711
all this madness and that we will all

0:56:30.948,0:56:32.819
strive to hold ourselves and each other

0:56:33.057,0:56:34.300
to a higher standard".

0:56:34.586,0:56:36.815
Girl, what?!? Jeffree Star also

0:56:37.074,0:56:38.917
immediately got on Twitter and said:

0:56:39.228,0:56:41.897
"Everyone keeps asking me for receipts...

0:56:42.231,0:56:45.111
I have so much to say and some really sad

0:56:45.388,0:56:47.435
and disgusting things to show you guys.

0:56:47.778,0:56:50.245
James Charles tried to mass manipulate

0:56:50.495,0:56:52.428
all of you today. When I show you

0:56:52.691,0:56:54.583
the proof and why I tweeted

0:56:54.900,0:56:57.412
the tweet about him, you'll understand"

0:56:57.729,0:57:03.943
and get this. Get this! Tati deletes Bye

0:57:04.264,0:57:07.424
Sister after just typing up novels about

0:57:07.667,0:57:10.255
how she said she said what she said and

0:57:10.504,0:57:11.536
she stands by it, And she is praying for

0:57:11.781,0:57:13.629
everyone on all sides. I hope the

0:57:13.920,0:57:15.923
community gets stronger out of this.

0:57:16.212,0:57:18.512
Like she can't claim that this was for the

0:57:18.789,0:57:20.271
betterment of society in and then

0:57:20.500,0:57:22.724
take it down. She then took like a week

0:57:23.007,0:57:24.932
and a half off of YouTube and returned

0:57:25.212,0:57:28.096
video called "I'm Back" and it's literally

0:57:28.367,0:57:30.343
just a makeup tutorial, She just pretends

0:57:30.630,0:57:34.045
like none of that even happened. And as

0:57:34.275,0:57:35.993
you can see here, the audience was just

0:57:36.241,0:57:39.624
really confused by this, The top comment

0:57:39.900,0:57:43.618
literally "Tati, I stand by everything I

0:57:43.855,0:57:47.174
said". Also,, Tati deletes video a day

0:57:47.416,0:57:50.122
after the Tati video. Sam, the waiter,

0:57:50.366,0:57:52.623
returns to the internet with a new

0:57:52.875,0:57:55.505
video titled "I'm sorry James Charles".

0:57:55.758,0:57:57.748
In it, he says that his friends and his

0:57:57.986,0:58:00.613
family pressured him to continue talking

0:58:00.847,0:58:03.336
to James and even typed out some of the

0:58:03.624,0:58:06.230
messages to James pretending to be Sam.

0:58:06.541,0:58:09.059
He also says that they hold him to be

0:58:09.280,0:58:10.989
just pretend to be gay and to date James

0:58:11.235,0:58:14.082
to get all the opportunities that would

0:58:14.333,0:58:15.185
come with that.

0:58:15.456,0:58:20.966
*inaudible

0:58:21.175,0:58:23.004
James returned to YouTube in a very

0:58:23.257,0:58:26.470
pleasant audience and a very different

0:58:26.689,0:58:29.916
internet compared to a just a few short

0:58:30.114,0:58:32.368
weeks a go. By all standards, Tati's video

0:58:32.655,0:58:34.222
should have been that final nail

0:58:34.783,0:58:36.873
in the coffin and impossible to come

0:58:37.195,0:58:40.516
back from, but there he was an amazing

0:58:40.845,0:58:42.641
comeback story at the time.

0:58:43.190,0:58:45.604
In November of 2019, Tati was still

0:58:45.866,0:58:48.851
trying to fully ignore what happened and

0:58:49.097,0:58:51.991
move on despite on not saying anything

0:58:52.234,0:58:54.060
and then she wants to make a brand

0:58:54.261,0:58:57.021
called Tati Beaity and spoiler alert, both

0:58:57.265,0:58:59.896
Tati Beauty and Halo Beauty would not

0:59:00.167,0:59:02.333
survive the upcoming pandemic.

0:59:02.598,0:59:05.325
And despite everything that Jeffree had

0:59:05.584,0:59:07.701
said about James being a disgusting

0:59:07.962,0:59:10.137
monster and how he had all these receipts.

0:59:10.381,0:59:13.137
He was ready to expose him. By March of

0:59:13.421,0:59:16.272
2020, he had done a full 180 and even

0:59:16.660,0:59:19.002
left us a supported comment on one of

0:59:19.267,0:59:21.483
James' post. I mean this is Jeffree Star

0:59:21.723,0:59:23.166
we are talking about so it isn't that

0:59:23.359,0:59:25.849
surprising. Jeffree Star, very lore heavy,

0:59:26.122,0:59:28.469
evil man. Even then, Jeffree then posted

0:59:29.856,0:59:30.867
a video title "Never Doing This Again"

0:59:32.619,0:59:34.933
and I know just from that title you are

0:59:35.205,0:59:37.270
thinking, "What, what is he never going

0:59:37.604,0:59:39.570
to do again?" In this video he basically

0:59:39.859,0:59:42.128
says, "Just because I said that I hate

0:59:42.604,0:59:45.020
James Charles and I want him to die

0:59:45.367,0:59:48.376
he's disgusting, doesn't mean I hate

0:59:48.732,0:59:50.195
James Charles."

0:59:50.699,0:59:52.714
Because I said those things, that does

0:59:53.328,0:59:54.419
that not mean that I hate James Charles.

0:59:54.792,0:59:56.311
But my personal favorite part of this

0:59:56.530,0:59:58.241
video is when he says there's no hate in

0:59:58.504,0:59:59.048
this heart..

0:59:59.354,1:00:01.085
There is no actual hate in this heart.

1:00:01.361,1:00:03.185
He also says that he's not going to give

1:00:03.428,1:00:04.403
the people what they want.

1:00:04.894,1:00:07.331
He's not going to come out with receipts

1:00:07.682,1:00:09.237
and cancel anyone today.

1:00:09.736,1:00:11.106
They want me to open up my phone and

1:00:11.367,1:00:13.537
expect me to expose it all.

1:00:13.818,1:00:15.039
He basically says that he was being

1:00:15.302,1:00:19.830
manipulated about James and being fed

1:00:20.109,1:00:22.915
things that wasn't necessarily true.

1:00:23.165,1:00:24.702
There are people telling me a lot of stuff

1:00:25.081,1:00:26.543
The video ends by him saying that he's

1:00:26.818,1:00:28.064
done with the tea and he's done with the

1:00:28.305,1:00:30.688
drama. He would then precede to have to

1:00:31.109,1:00:34.176
and the Tati and drama for the next like

1:00:34.393,1:00:35.225
four years. And something important to

1:00:36.402,1:00:38.026
note is that during this time, both

1:00:38.352,1:00:41.958
Jeffree and Shane Dodsan were pretty much

1:00:42.262,1:00:44.459
PR nightmares and there was both trying

1:00:44.754,1:00:47.305
to like quickly clean up and do a little

1:00:47.570,1:00:50.881
damage control and fans found resurfaced

1:00:51.166,1:00:53.776
images and videos of them doing various

1:00:54.063,1:00:56.688
problematic things. And, imagine that as

1:00:56.967,1:00:59.829
Jeffree Star's fans are demanding him to

1:01:00.099,1:01:01.636
take accountability for some old

1:01:02.250,1:01:04.907
problematic stuff. He decides it's time

1:01:05.217,1:01:07.469
to rewrite history a little bit when

1:01:07.736,1:01:10.598
it comes to his loyalty to James Charles.

1:01:10.908,1:01:13.620
Meanwhile, Shane Dolsan was having a

1:01:13.889,1:01:16.567
much harder time dealing with facing

1:01:16.887,1:01:19.854
his actions, because the thing about Shane

1:01:20.151,1:01:22.822
Dolsan is that he crumbles. He crumbles

1:01:23.156,1:01:24.771
under pressure. Meanwhile, Jeffree

1:01:25.029,1:01:26.633
Star, like I don't want to harm

1:01:26.848,1:01:29.379
psychology him, but he like might actually

1:01:29.707,1:01:32.697
be a psychopath. He is able to lie himself

1:01:32.963,1:01:35.582
out of any situation. Just like that.

1:01:36.111,1:01:38.505
Easy, simple. But this guy having to face

1:01:38.790,1:01:40.992
the ramifications of let's see. Let's

1:01:41.241,1:01:42.647
check our notes. Umm..

1:01:43.403,1:01:45.162
Black face. Racist characters.

1:01:45.528,1:01:47.852
Said the n-word. Said very various

1:01:48.102,1:01:49.949
other slurs. Various instances of

1:01:50.263,1:01:54.363
sexualizing minors and etc. There

1:01:54.637,1:01:56.119
was so much backlash with this that

1:01:56.426,1:01:58.889
YouTube temporarily demonatized Shane's

1:01:59.213,1:02:01.493
channel, which is really funny because it

1:02:01.807,1:02:03.863
all comes back to him not being able to

1:02:04.124,1:02:05.681
handle the heat. Like Jeffree Star's

1:02:05.979,1:02:08.686
channel, fine. What did Jeffree Star do?

1:02:08.983,1:02:11.698
A lot. Pretty similar things actually, but

1:02:11.947,1:02:13.909
he could take the heat and so imagine

1:02:14.204,1:02:15.894
you are on your tenth Youtube apology

1:02:16.191,1:02:17.664
pretty much and you have a bunch of

1:02:17.942,1:02:20.170
dirty little bug bites al over your neck

1:02:20.480,1:02:22.050
ok and you have scabies and you're

1:02:22.335,1:02:23.566
salivating *hag

1:02:25.169,1:02:26.415
I am so sorry that I sexualized Will

1:02:26.734,1:02:27.670
Smith. Nobody gives a f***!

1:02:28.276,1:02:29.412
Shane Dolsan f******cry.

1:02:29.749,1:02:31.478
Shane Dolson, that is your mindset ok.

1:02:31.783,1:02:32.998
You are going just a little bit loopy

1:02:33.725,1:02:36.745
already and then June 30th, Tati drops

1:02:37.021,1:02:39.440
a video called "Breaking My Silence".

1:02:39.760,1:02:42.906
And in this video, Tati says that she

1:02:43.187,1:02:46.195
was coerced into making bisister by

1:02:46.450,1:02:49.711
Shane Dolsan and Jeffree Star.

1:02:50.021,1:02:51.773
I made it as a result of all of the

1:02:52.055,1:02:53.967
poisonous lies that were fed to me by

1:02:54.258,1:02:55.894
Shane Dawson and Jeffree Star.

1:02:56.249,1:02:59.586
Fuck! This is so Netflix short little

1:02:59.857,1:03:02.311
special coded, limited series. There you

1:03:02.551,1:03:04.252
go! That's the fucking word. So Tati says

1:03:04.530,1:03:06.483
that she's apologized to James Charles

1:03:06.796,1:03:09.186
and that they met up together in private

1:03:09.475,1:03:11.467
and compared screenshots that they have

1:03:11.757,1:03:13.877
from both Jeffree and Shane

1:03:14.145,1:03:16.442
and come to the conclusion that this

1:03:16.726,1:03:17.976
whole thing was a mass

1:03:18.358,1:03:20.825
manipulation from both of them.

1:03:21.109,1:03:22.715
And according to Tati, she learned

1:03:23.010,1:03:24.794
that being friends with Jeffree Star

1:03:25.098,1:03:27.702
is like being friends with a lion.

1:03:27.974,1:03:29.099
I learned that being friends with Jeffree

1:03:29.338,1:03:31.291
Star like being friends with a lion. He

1:03:31.538,1:03:33.350
may have been dangerous but he was always

1:03:33.623,1:03:34.479
really kind to me.

1:03:34.751,1:03:38.153
Mind you, anybody at any age can be

1:03:38.441,1:03:41.146
manipulated. This is a very true.

1:03:41.412,1:03:44.878
However, in my opinion, there is no way

1:03:45.159,1:03:46.898
that she's not at least partially

1:03:47.220,1:03:49.846
responsible for some of this. And I can't

1:03:50.113,1:03:51.613
stress this enough okay. Don't freak out.

1:03:51.870,1:03:53.854
Don't freak out. Every character in this

1:03:54.136,1:03:56.649
story sucks. We have our main character,

1:03:56.945,1:03:59.725
predator backing in oven. We got racist

1:04:00.504,1:04:05.220
guy #1. We have a racist guy # 2 and at

1:04:05.524,1:04:09.053
least, petty vitamin woman. So on this v

1:04:09.304,1:04:11.463
video Tati makes a series of new claims,

1:04:11.775,1:04:14.761
okay. So, first off, she says that when

1:04:15.057,1:04:16.932
she met Jeffree Star, she knew he had a

1:04:17.233,1:04:19.146
controversial past but that she took it

1:04:19.427,1:04:21.475
among herself to try to make him a better

1:04:21.737,1:04:23.909
person and that get him involved with her

1:04:24.177,1:04:26.839
favorite charity, which did not work. She

1:04:27.089,1:04:29.089
also claims to have known nothing about

1:04:29.358,1:04:31.229
Shane Dawson's past and that she

1:04:31.498,1:04:33.857
did no research on him like all she knew

1:04:34.169,1:04:37.215
that he was the "most adored documentarian

1:04:37.425,1:04:37.943
on YouTube".

1:04:38.222,1:04:40.094
I wish I had educated myself and I was

1:04:40.330,1:04:41.360
aware of his earlier content.

1:04:41.787,1:04:45.031
In my opinion, this truly doesn't add up

1:04:45.306,1:04:47.367
because we are talking about Shane *gasp

1:04:47.604,1:04:49.521
Dawson. But anyways, she goes on to say

1:04:49.775,1:04:51.937
that Shane told her that he was making

1:04:52.232,1:04:54.255
a documentary about the beauty community.

1:04:54.556,1:04:56.521
and that it is rapidly developing and

1:04:56.773,1:04:59.417
rapidly changing due to new information

1:04:59.807,1:05:01.573
that Jeffree Star had collected on

1:05:01.857,1:05:04.009
James Charles. She said it was Shane's

1:05:04.380,1:05:07.213
idea to make bisister and even went as

1:05:07.444,1:05:09.307
far as to offer to edit it for her.

1:05:09.588,1:05:11.911
And when Tati hesitated, he sent her

1:05:12.206,1:05:14.760
a voice memo about an alleged victim of

1:05:15.023,1:05:15.391
James.

1:05:16.289,1:05:17.442
It wasn't enough for me to contact the

1:05:17.681,1:05:19.076
authorities. It was enough to scare me.

1:05:19.344,1:05:21.828
Jeffree and Shane claimed that as soon as

1:05:22.065,1:05:24.234
she posted bisister, a plethora of

1:05:24.515,1:05:26.417
victims were going to come forward.

1:05:26.712,1:05:29.022
But then they never did. Tati goes on

1:05:29.260,1:05:31.223
to theorize that Shane and Jeffree

1:05:31.465,1:05:33.264
actually orchestrated this whole thing

1:05:33.535,1:05:36.040
as a plot to destroy James because they

1:05:36.320,1:05:39.306
were jealous of his career trajectory and

1:05:39.550,1:05:41.991
they wanted as much attention as possible

1:05:42.258,1:05:44.025
when they released their collaborative

1:05:44.303,1:05:46.793
palette the "Conspiracy palette". She then

1:05:47.041,1:05:49.442
gets super tin-foiled-atty at the end and

1:05:49.711,1:05:51.498
says that she believes that there were

1:05:51.746,1:05:53.925
many more players involved to

1:05:54.143,1:05:55.947
orchestrate this whole thing, and that it

1:05:56.174,1:05:58.295
is not a coincidence that after the whole

1:05:58.535,1:06:00.544
fallout, Morphe came out with gummy

1:06:00.828,1:06:01.410
vitamins.

1:06:01.684,1:06:03.796
I do not think it is a coincidence that

1:06:04.011,1:06:05.468
Morphe is about to launch their own

1:06:05.708,1:06:07.815
brand of hair and nail gummy vitamins.

1:06:08.084,1:06:10.139
I have beef with every single one of

1:06:10.396,1:06:11.491
these people. Like we can grab. I don't

1:06:11.744,1:06:13.541
give a shit. But Tati, even though she is

1:06:13.843,1:06:15.928
not the biggest villain here by far,

1:06:16.197,1:06:18.498
really irks me because I feel like she

1:06:18.765,1:06:21.091
acted completely out of selfishness.

1:06:21.403,1:06:23.195
I agree that it is plausible to have

1:06:23.462,1:06:25.352
been manipulated by Shane ad Jeffree,

1:06:25.611,1:06:28.369
like especially Jeffree. But if Tati

1:06:28.611,1:06:32.568
truly, truly believed that the allegations

1:06:32.826,1:06:34.326
that Shane and Jeffree were telling her

1:06:34.617,1:06:36.185
were real and that serious, why did she

1:06:36.500,1:06:39.523
make the majority of bisister about gummy

1:06:39.780,1:06:41.950
vitamins? Why did she falsely accuse him

1:06:42.204,1:06:44.149
of sexually harassing waiter amongst other

1:06:44.494,1:06:47.012
things. Conclusively, the entire video

1:06:47.468,1:06:49.754
was based on somebody else's lies, but

1:06:50.047,1:06:52.679
she double downed on it multiple times

1:06:52.977,1:06:55.262
over the course of several months and

1:06:55.580,1:06:58.023
holds virtually no accountability for

1:06:58.280,1:07:00.663
causing the cultural switch against James,

1:07:00.947,1:07:03.262
who at this point, she is saying is

1:07:03.552,1:07:05.539
completely innocent. And like above all

1:07:05.794,1:07:07.394
else, I think the biggest issue is the

1:07:07.631,1:07:09.236
fact that she says that there's a voice

1:07:09.621,1:07:11.757
memo that is damning enough

1:07:12.044,1:07:13.793
that warranted her going through

1:07:14.088,1:07:16.111
with that public flogging, yet now

1:07:16.383,1:07:18.461
she is saying wait! That wasn't real.

1:07:18.732,1:07:20.169
And the question you might be asking

1:07:20.447,1:07:22.983
right now is what the fuck is in the

1:07:23.247,1:07:26.496
voice memo? Well, it's currently 2024 and

1:07:26.761,1:07:28.902
we still don't have the answer to that.

1:07:29.203,1:07:31.269
But there's been a ton of speculation

1:07:31.556,1:07:34.402
as to who it is. A lot of people theorize

1:07:34.624,1:07:36.158
that it's Grace and Dolan since Jeffree

1:07:36.407,1:07:39.460
made that claim about James molesting

1:07:39.662,1:07:41.034
him in his sleep. People also think this

1:07:41.319,1:07:43.459
because by the cultural shift back to

1:07:43.766,1:07:46.246
liking James, the Dolan twins still

1:07:46.558,1:07:47.861
haven't followed him back or even

1:07:48.248,1:07:50.782
publicly spoke to him but I'm not saying

1:07:51.060,1:07:52.985
that I believe this. This is just a

1:07:53.212,1:07:55.752
theory. I hope that's not true. With

1:07:56.010,1:07:58.251
Jeffree Star though, it is really hard to

1:07:58.495,1:08:00.632
tell what is actually true and

1:08:00.944,1:08:03.352
what's total bunk, because he seems to

1:08:03.611,1:08:06.459
always merge partial truths with lies.

1:08:06.741,1:08:09.500
And so it's like okay, part of this

1:08:09.703,1:08:11.000
could be true but that might not make the

1:08:11.378,1:08:13.366
entire story have validity. But in the

1:08:13.653,1:08:15.671
aftermath of the breaking my silence

1:08:15.935,1:08:18.162
video, Shane Dawson gets on a Intagram

1:08:18.435,1:08:20.341
live stream and starts like tweaking.

1:08:20.608,1:08:22.080
This is insane! This is insane! This

1:08:22.414,1:08:24.993
woman is like a fucking, omg!

1:08:25.239,1:08:27.614
This entire live stream consists of him

1:08:28.244,1:08:29.990
calling Tati a liar and running around

1:08:30.528,1:08:32.693
his house like he just drank iced coffee

1:08:32.919,1:08:34.011
and he has to take a shit.

1:08:35.479,1:08:36.244
I can't, I can't. I don't want to say mean

1:08:36.471,1:08:37.744
things about people. This is insane.

1:08:37.983,1:08:38.598
This is insane.

1:08:38.868,1:08:40.646
It's actually hilarious because I love

1:08:41.226,1:08:42.816
shaming Shane Dawson while he's down

1:08:43.069,1:08:44.495
and I would again. For legal purposes this

1:08:44.863,1:08:46.510
is a joke, but I wish that we could

1:08:47.450,1:08:48.953
collectively blast Shane Dawson into the

1:08:50.767,1:08:52.077
sun. James Just responds to all this

1:08:52.330,1:08:53.145
public freaking out that's just a tweet

1:08:53.418,1:08:54.901
that says "love you guys!"

1:08:56.199,1:08:57.409
All this same day, Trisha

1:08:57.741,1:09:00.123
also uploaded a video called "Tati's dumb

1:09:00.496,1:09:02.270
as hell" which I only mentioning because

1:09:02.750,1:09:05.187
it is so off the cuff and untethered.

1:09:05.535,1:09:07.344
And to summarize it in one clip:

1:09:07.649,1:09:12.854
"I was beyond gaslit, no we are just

1:09:13.168,1:09:13.619
stupid".

1:09:13.919,1:09:15.303
In the following days, Morphe cut ties

1:09:15.669,1:09:16.576
with Jeffree Star.

1:09:16.867,1:09:18.390
Morphe said they made the decision

1:09:18.629,1:09:20.233
to cease all commercial activity related

1:09:20.517,1:09:22.175
to Jeffree Star and related products

1:09:22.506,1:09:23.706
within the coming in the coming weeks.

1:09:23.966,1:09:25.314
And in the April 20th, he would go on

1:09:25.603,1:09:27.713
mom's basement podcast and reaffirm

1:09:28.017,1:09:29.958
to keep Team Star that James Charles

1:09:30.227,1:09:32.313
is a monster and that he still has the

1:09:32.600,1:09:34.896
voice memo of the alleged victim but

1:09:35.122,1:09:36.857
doesn't want to publicly out them.

1:09:37.195,1:09:40.697
Yet 2 months later, on July 18th, 2020,

1:09:40.965,1:09:43.120
he would release a video called "Doing

1:09:43.344,1:09:45.938
what's right" and in this video Jeffree

1:09:46.148,1:09:47.911
says a whole lot of f***** up.

1:09:48.528,1:09:50.542
He's like "Hey guys, I am not going

1:09:50.773,1:09:53.024
cancel anyone today. Sorry, I am not

1:09:53.265,1:09:54.813
coming in with steaming hot tea today

1:09:55.320,1:09:55.675
ya'll."

1:09:56.063,1:09:57.764
Today I will not be sitting her showing

1:09:58.006,1:09:59.642
a million texts messages and all these

1:09:59.992,1:10:02.063
things that allegedly are out there.

1:10:02.350,1:10:04.233
He goes on to say that he's done with

1:10:04.465,1:10:06.234
all the drama and that's there bigger

1:10:06.544,1:10:08.983
things in the world to worry about and

1:10:09.216,1:10:11.441
I honestly forgot that this apology

1:10:11.768,1:10:14.638
happened in 2020. So I was sent into a

1:10:14.910,1:10:17.359
whole whiplash when I heard him

1:10:17.625,1:10:19.891
say that we need to focus on Black Lives

1:10:20.160,1:10:23.486
Matter. Okay, back up. We are backing up.

1:10:23.756,1:10:27.269
Jeffree, first of all, you've made a lot

1:10:27.530,1:10:29.431
of claims buddy, and now you are coming

1:10:29.686,1:10:31.951
on your being like sorry, I am not

1:10:32.222,1:10:36.231
involved in any of this drama, "Drama",

1:10:36.534,1:10:38.292
when it is something supposedly serious.

1:10:38.589,1:10:40.232
And then you are deflecting the

1:10:40.491,1:10:42.042
conversation on to Black Lives Matter?

1:10:42.345,1:10:45.796
What? What? He literally uses murdered

1:10:46.085,1:10:48.075
people of color to take the attention off

1:10:48.367,1:10:51.152
of him, making claims that James is

1:10:51.422,1:10:51.920
a predator.

1:10:52.194,1:10:54.379
Black trans men are being murdered

1:10:54.613,1:10:55.987
every day and the news is silent.

1:10:56.308,1:10:57.964
Like, there are no words to describe this

1:10:58.212,1:10:59.914
chat. Are they words to describe this?

1:11:00.180,1:11:01.410
Are there words for something so

1:11:01.673,1:11:03.131
despicable? James is kind of like a

1:11:03.374,1:11:05.791
predator and a danger to society. But

1:11:06.074,1:11:08.070
that's like drama though. It's kind of

1:11:08.479,1:11:10.487
like "Hi, everybody. Welcome back to my

1:11:10.752,1:11:14.181
channel". The Freudian Slip. Meanwhile,

1:11:14.623,1:11:16.876
right after this whole Jeffree podcast

1:11:17.170,1:11:19.566
debacle, James Charles goes on impulsive

1:11:20.204,1:11:23.413
which is even Jake Paul's or Logan Paul's

1:11:23.660,1:11:26.110
Podcast. I don't know because I use their

1:11:26.397,1:11:27.922
names interchangeably and I don't know

1:11:28.387,1:11:30.573
who's who but this podcast seems chill

1:11:30.858,1:11:33.762
and it seems inconsequential at first.

1:11:34.078,1:11:36.295
But then James starts dropping bombs

1:11:36.582,1:11:38.875
left and right, like let me show you some

1:11:39.145,1:11:41.576
bullet points of what this man publicly

1:11:41.893,1:11:44.291
admits. A little over an hour into

1:11:44.525,1:11:46.625
the interview, James claims that he is

1:11:46.879,1:11:49.198
far more mature than other people his age.

1:11:49.449,1:11:52.138
By the way, he's currently 21 in this

1:11:52.395,1:11:54.170
interview. Then he then goes on to say

1:11:54.449,1:11:57.192
that he's just not attracted to older

1:11:57.459,1:12:00.295
men and the absolute lowest that he would

1:12:00.560,1:12:03.834
date was either 18 or 19 but looks a

1:12:04.079,1:12:06.104
little bit older and he says the absolute

1:12:06.357,1:12:08.019
lowest that he would date

1:12:08.305,1:12:11.150
The absolute youngest, like 18, 19, that

1:12:11.374,1:12:11.898
looks a little bit older.

1:12:12.143,1:12:14.226
This is already more than a little

1:12:14.476,1:12:16.382
questionable, like what is the point of

1:12:16.648,1:12:20.300
dating somebody who is 18 or 19 but

1:12:21.077,1:12:22.569
looks a little bit older. What is the

1:12:22.813,1:12:25.999
point of them being 18 and you just

1:12:26.264,1:12:28.548
said that you are more mature than

1:12:28.781,1:12:30.691
everyone else your age. So, why do you

1:12:30.923,1:12:32.487
want to date somebody more immature.

1:12:32.769,1:12:34.628
But as if that wasn't bad enough, a few

1:12:34.950,1:12:36.927
minutes later he goes on to say something

1:12:37.215,1:12:40.344
even weirder. He says that he tried to

1:12:40.613,1:12:42.301
fly boys out to LA because a lot

1:12:42.632,1:12:45.503
of them don't have any money or they

1:12:45.751,1:12:47.594
are still in high school or I mean a

1:12:47.851,1:12:48.877
senior in high school.

1:12:49.244,1:12:50.421
Because you can't afford a plane ticket,

1:12:50.673,1:12:51.880
you are probably still in either in high

1:12:52.128,1:12:53.640
school or still in college, a senior in

1:12:53.882,1:12:54.278
high school or in college.

1:12:54.685,1:12:58.278
Oh, so you really said that. Hmmm, and

1:12:58.554,1:12:59.576
who makes mistakes like that.

1:12:59.860,1:13:02.601
There's Madeline here who. Who makes

1:13:02.839,1:13:04.358
that kind of mistake and it's a probably

1:13:04.606,1:13:08.901
a minor. Admitting to outsourcing

1:13:09.203,1:13:11.954
teenagers from other states at the age

1:13:12.217,1:13:17.683
of 21 is crazy. And they didn't even have

1:13:17.967,1:13:19.304
to waterboard that out of him.

1:13:19.593,1:13:22.267
By the way, might I mention that nobody

1:13:22.546,1:13:24.632
had a negative response to this? Like

1:13:25.069,1:13:26.879
the boys on this podcast are just like

1:13:27.152,1:13:29.941
Oh, yeah! Totally! Maybe they just felt

1:13:30.218,1:13:32.658
awkward or wanted to keep the peace. Like

1:13:32.917,1:13:34.986
didn't know what to say. But damn, if that

1:13:35.267,1:13:37.869
was me, I would have a visceral,

1:13:38.164,1:13:41.631
uncontrollable reaction like what? And

1:13:41.884,1:13:44.054
not to be to be grossed ok. But like

1:13:44.309,1:13:46.362
these bold boys that he's outsourcing are

1:13:46.672,1:13:48.373
are literally the same age as his little

1:13:48.662,1:13:50.791
brother. Like does he see his brother

1:13:51.119,1:13:54.464
as in an equal when it comes to maturity

1:13:54.723,1:13:56.347
and growth. Oh yeah, and last question.

1:13:56.657,1:13:59.726
Have you seen every person on Earth

1:14:00.090,1:14:02.350
that is your same age or a little bit

1:14:02.706,1:14:04.237
older than you. Have you? How have you

1:14:04.508,1:14:06.654
already determined that you're not

1:14:06.981,1:14:08.921
attracted to people older than you.

1:14:09.229,1:14:11.825
There's people that older than all of

1:14:12.119,1:14:14.919
us that just look youthful. So what is it

1:14:15.211,1:14:18.211
really about, James? The last thing I

1:14:18.531,1:14:19.996
want to say about this interview, because

1:14:20.266,1:14:21.674
I can honestly talk about it forever, is

1:14:21.941,1:14:24.463
that he also claims that he wouldn't date

1:14:24.762,1:14:25.439
a fan in it.

1:14:25.705,1:14:26.445
You wouldn't date a fan?

1:14:26.759,1:14:27.180
No.

1:14:27.455,1:14:28.373
Just remember that ok?

1:14:28.834,1:14:31.929
On September 1, 2020, James would do a

1:14:32.133,1:14:33.997
collab with Emma Chamberlain, and this was

1:14:34.260,1:14:35.973
the first time that these two would

1:14:36.212,1:14:39.049
reunite since before dramageddon. In an

1:14:39.314,1:14:41.163
interview with the paparazzi, Emma also

1:14:41.466,1:14:43.608
said that her and James weren't in a

1:14:43.903,1:14:45.767
really good place. But when asked about

1:14:46.027,1:14:47.800
the Dolan twins, she basically says

1:14:48.339,1:14:49.293
"Don't hold your breath".

1:14:49.617,1:14:51.412
With the Dolan twins that if

1:14:51.733,1:14:53.252
everybody can get on the same page?

1:14:53.621,1:14:54.254
No promises.

1:14:54.894,1:14:57.902
On September 16, 2020, James would have a

1:14:58.224,1:15:00.553
mini controversy over some allegedly

1:15:00.834,1:15:03.564
stolen designs. Now as you can see here,

1:15:03.881,1:15:06.239
this is a color block, Sister's merch

1:15:06.598,1:15:08.917
hoodie, okay. And now let's compare it

1:15:09.300,1:15:11.164
to a hoodie that was originally designed

1:15:11.536,1:15:15.017
by Teddy Fresh, a.k.a. H Threes brand.

1:15:15.432,1:15:18.425
Well obviously, James' says Sister on the

1:15:18.898,1:15:20.356
front and this one just has like a red

1:15:20.683,1:15:22.240
square that says the fresh.

1:15:22.545,1:15:25.978
The sweater is the exact color grading.

1:15:26.443,1:15:28.548
Like it's the exact same shades and the

1:15:28.807,1:15:30.671
exact same spots. And when James was

1:15:30.950,1:15:33.012
confronted about this, he said he had

1:15:33.302,1:15:35.437
never heard of their brand before. Despite

1:15:35.719,1:15:37.856
the fact that people were quick to point

1:15:38.167,1:15:42.029
out that one of James' best friends, Lorai

1:15:42.489,1:15:45.220
had pictures in that exact Teddy Fresh

1:15:45.522,1:15:48.245
hoodie on his Instagram and was even

1:15:48.562,1:15:50.679
featured on the Teddy Fresh Instagram

1:15:51.112,1:15:53.964
page. And like, obviously, no one owns

1:15:54.267,1:15:56.351
colors. But the fact that they were the

1:15:56.699,1:15:59.454
exact same shades and the same areas.

1:15:59.980,1:16:01.979
It's just a suspicious set of lace.

1:16:02.308,1:16:04.432
Also, just generally speaking, James'

1:16:04.762,1:16:05.705
hoodie is just really ugly.

1:16:06.214,1:16:08.787
In October, James got his very own

1:16:09.136,1:16:11.375
YouTube original show called Instant

1:16:11.740,1:16:14.069
Influencer and it was a competition where

1:16:14.374,1:16:16.587
amateur influencers competed for

1:16:16.998,1:16:20.126
a $10,000 video setup, a collab with

1:16:20.415,1:16:22.960
James Charles, and $50,000 cash.

1:16:23.660,1:16:25.218
And the sheriff evolved around doing

1:16:25.527,1:16:27.926
different challenges. One very noteworthy

1:16:28.255,1:16:30.181
one is in episode where they do an

1:16:30.538,1:16:31.826
apology video challenge.

1:16:32.226,1:16:33.919
I just really want to apologize and I

1:16:34.185,1:16:35.885
want to change. *Sob Sob

1:16:36.176,1:16:38.197
Just, just terribly ironic and if I

1:16:38.623,1:16:41.111
can be completely honest with you guys

1:16:41.470,1:16:44.999
right now. If I had just one teeny James

1:16:45.390,1:16:47.983
Charles wish on a star. It would be that

1:16:48.314,1:16:50.530
Instant Influencer could come back but

1:16:50.856,1:16:52.567
obviously with a different host, because

1:16:52.939,1:16:55.311
this show is actually good. Like

1:16:55.607,1:16:57.535
literally, YouTube, can we get somebody

1:16:57.808,1:17:00.161
else, literally anybody else to host the

1:17:00.474,1:17:02.488
show. I've throw a shower. Let's go!

1:17:02.996,1:17:03.361
Of course, I already spoiled this for you

1:17:04.679,1:17:06.425
but the show does not exist anymore.

1:17:06.755,1:17:09.328
And I'm sure you already guessed why.

1:17:09.751,1:17:12.873
In February of 2021, a minor came forward

1:17:13.384,1:17:15.427
and alleged that James asked him for

1:17:15.813,1:17:18.461
totally explicit photos and videos over

1:17:18.766,1:17:21.264
Snapchat. The minor questioned, posted a

1:17:21.522,1:17:23.368
Tik Tok where he explained that he had

1:17:23.642,1:17:25.566
previously dmed James because he was a

1:17:25.886,1:17:26.399
fan.

1:17:26.733,1:17:27.946
Prove it to you right now. This is the

1:17:28.223,1:17:29.477
notification that I got when he snapchated

1:17:29.764,1:17:31.314
me first and this is further proof that

1:17:31.626,1:17:32.761
he deleted the chat in a way to deleted.

1:17:33.127,1:17:34.587
That's totally in his Snapchat.

1:17:34.835,1:17:36.175
And so he began sending snaps back and

1:17:36.491,1:17:39.518
forth and one day, James saw that he was

1:17:39.954,1:17:41.678
in the bathroom, so he began making the

1:17:41.955,1:17:43.052
conversation very sexual.

1:17:43.621,1:17:45.456
So, he started making the conversation

1:17:45.772,1:17:47.045
very and sexual and really got

1:17:47.557,1:17:47.954
uncomfortable.

1:17:48.288,1:17:50.530
Saying disgusting things like "Take a

1:17:50.815,1:17:52.666
video of yourself in the shower" and "Can

1:17:52.987,1:17:56.081
I see your muscles and hair". He then

1:17:56.343,1:17:58.023
began sending nudes of himself, which

1:17:58.322,1:17:59.950
I cannot show you, but I tell you why

1:18:00.311,1:18:02.531
this. It is very clearly James Charles'

1:18:02.914,1:18:06.297
musty BBL booty. Once he sent these nudes,

1:18:06.778,1:18:09.039
the victim told him that he was only 16,

1:18:09.427,1:18:12.122
to which James allegedly replied, "Oh,

1:18:12.454,1:18:14.001
but I haven't seen your dick yet". Then

1:18:14.335,1:18:16.085
after saying he didn't want to send nudes

1:18:16.816,1:18:18.982
James kept hounding him for them anyways.

1:18:19.431,1:18:22.123
Like, for example, in this screenshot here

1:18:22.498,1:18:24.819
he says, "It would literally take you 30

1:18:25.131,1:18:27.603
seconds to take a pic like this, awww".

1:18:27.851,1:18:29.411
James would later claim that the boy

1:18:29.717,1:18:32.527
told him that he was 18. In a Notes app

1:18:32.841,1:18:34.575
response on Twitter. And until the art in

1:18:34.896,1:18:37.970
lame Twitter notes app thing is that James

1:18:38.231,1:18:40.998
said that the boy messaged him excitedly,

1:18:41.390,1:18:43.863
telling him he loved him. And so, he began

1:18:44.178,1:18:46.565
talking to him without asking for ID.

1:18:46.877,1:18:48.897
And I find this really interesting

1:18:49.226,1:18:51.598
because he just said on the impulsive

1:18:51.921,1:18:54.152
Podcast that he did not want to date a

1:18:54.474,1:18:57.572
fan, but in conclusion he says, "I will

1:18:57.863,1:19:00.048
know be asking everybody for IDs. The

1:19:00.417,1:19:02.111
fact that he's like, I'm still going to

1:19:02.438,1:19:04.627
DM questionably young people but I am

1:19:04.910,1:19:06.690
still going to be asking for IDs now is

1:19:07.045,1:19:10.730
crazy. Also, even if they are 18, like I

1:19:11.044,1:19:13.324
said, seeking out a barely legal

1:19:13.859,1:19:17.876
18-year-old is creepy. Jeebs!

1:19:18.457,1:19:19.441
How does it make it ok? This is still

1:19:19.695,1:19:23.152
your teenage 18. That's a teenager fan.

1:19:23.439,1:19:26.997
Also in February, yet another underage

1:19:27.283,1:19:30.474
fan came forward. This time it was a

1:19:30.787,1:19:34.081
14-year-old and he also said that James

1:19:34.434,1:19:36.439
sent him unsolicited nudes and

1:19:36.785,1:19:38.585
inappropriate videos of himself. This boy

1:19:38.903,1:19:40.448
alleges that he reached out to James

1:19:40.761,1:19:43.661
Charles on a dare, not expecting James

1:19:43.961,1:19:45.786
to answer of course, but when he did,

1:19:46.089,1:19:49.287
he got very excited. Of course, this is

1:19:49.574,1:19:51.536
a famous person so, he wants to talk to

1:19:51.874,1:19:54.161
him. James then added him on Snapchat.

1:19:54.466,1:19:55.458
Are you seeing a pattern?

1:19:55.831,1:19:58.270
Are you seeing this? He claims that James

1:19:58.599,1:20:00.895
kept pressuring him to come out to LA

1:20:01.373,1:20:02.745
and that he was also trying to get him

1:20:03.121,1:20:05.239
to question his sexuality. And remember

1:20:05.783,1:20:07.718
that Impulsive Interview?

1:20:08.209,1:20:09.811
Even they confess that they can't afford

1:20:10.169,1:20:11.994
a plane ticket. It's like ok but I can.

1:20:12.309,1:20:13.207
So, get on the plane.

1:20:13.546,1:20:17.093
Wow, this alleged victim literally thought

1:20:17.453,1:20:20.026
that he was speaking about him in that

1:20:20.340,1:20:22.859
segment. Also, big shout out to Paige

1:20:23.698,1:20:27.302
Christie. I was literally only able to

1:20:27.668,1:20:28.305
find this information from her video. Like

1:20:28.577,1:20:29.374
so much of this has been just like

1:20:29.681,1:20:30.915
scrubbed from the internet, like Big

1:20:31.243,1:20:33.817
Sister is like watching. Trisha Paytas

1:20:34.126,1:20:35.801
replied to this whole situation saying

1:20:36.267,1:20:37.764
like: "I'll say without a shadow of a

1:20:38.032,1:20:40.389
doubt. James Charles in the only creator

1:20:40.680,1:20:42.639
that deserves to be banned and stripped

1:20:42.898,1:20:44.993
from all social platform. He's abusing by

1:20:45.255,1:20:48.171
sexting with minors!!! Repeated behavior

1:20:48.451,1:20:50.686
happening as recent as a few days ago.

1:20:50.948,1:20:53.770
This is an actual predator/pedophile.

1:20:54.025,1:20:55.220
I have to say I'm completely agree

1:20:55.502,1:20:56.602
and I don't know if he's the only one,

1:20:56.883,1:20:59.280
But I do completely agree that he should

1:20:59.536,1:21:03.586
not be on Tik Tok or YouTube or Instagram.

1:21:03.848,1:21:06.102
Like, and it just gets worse. On April 1,

1:21:06.378,1:21:08.654
James would upload "Holding myself

1:21:08.935,1:21:11.290
accountable in response to all of these

1:21:11.542,1:21:14.717
allegations". Yes, it's true he posted a

1:21:14.997,1:21:17.769
response to grooming allegations on April

1:21:18.037,1:21:21.097
1st. Now this video makes me mad from

1:21:21.446,1:21:23.373
beginning to end. He basically says he

1:21:23.673,1:21:25.337
trusted the information that was given

1:21:25.658,1:21:27.548
to him rather than the info that he

1:21:27.789,1:21:29.463
could've or should've gotten himself.

1:21:29.810,1:21:32.761
And yeah, that's true, but I feel like

1:21:33.070,1:21:35.502
he's immediately deflecting from the

1:21:35.980,1:21:38.314
fact that even what you thought you were

1:21:38.592,1:21:41.932
doing is wrong. James then goes on to

1:21:42.187,1:21:44.650
list being desperate for the reason for

1:21:44.918,1:21:47.769
why he makes all these dating faux paus.

1:21:48.135,1:21:50.171
And it is ridiculously embarrassing to

1:21:50.442,1:21:52.351
admit this but I'm desperate.

1:21:52.629,1:21:56.455
And then he starts bracingly lying like

1:21:56.729,1:22:01.347
outright like a dog, lying. He says that I

1:22:01.699,1:22:03.518
will partially quote so that I don't have

1:22:03.770,1:22:05.608
to play like a long clip and get

1:22:05.840,1:22:06.898
copyrighted or something. It's really

1:22:07.149,1:22:09.273
looking like I'm an actively searching for

1:22:09.619,1:22:11.548
younger people to be in a relationship

1:22:11.853,1:22:13.895
with and that's absolutely not the case.

1:22:14.241,1:22:15.600
My hope is that it always been in

1:22:15.963,1:22:17.226
a relationship with somebody around my

1:22:17.443,1:22:17.866
age or older.

1:22:18.172,1:22:21.404
Hey, wait a minute! Isn't this the exact

1:22:21.682,1:22:24.257
opposite thing of what you said earlier

1:22:24.612,1:22:25.585
this year.

1:22:25.879,1:22:27.585
I'm not physically attracted to older

1:22:27.832,1:22:28.621
guys which sucks.

1:22:28.885,1:22:30.525
He concludes the video with a detailed

1:22:30.777,1:22:33.210
description of how he came to the

1:22:33.540,1:22:34.685
realization that him talking to fans

1:22:34.949,1:22:37.783
created a power imbalance and that from

1:22:38.036,1:22:39.533
the get go he should of never had these

1:22:39.766,1:22:41.460
conversations to begin with because he

1:22:41.714,1:22:45.617
ignored red flags. Wave the red flags is

1:22:45.855,1:22:49.820
IOU. I have to saw is while this apology

1:22:50.082,1:22:52.277
video is definitely not is well received

1:22:52.610,1:22:53.530
and we will talk about it in a second.

1:22:53.840,1:22:56.426
He is pretty clever. I will say that.

1:22:56.880,1:23:00.226
His use of language really disassociates

1:23:00.515,1:23:03.331
himself with the facts of everything. He

1:23:03.547,1:23:03.971
says, for example.

1:23:04.300,1:23:06.621
And for that, for the example, so, so

1:23:07.952,1:23:08.290
sorry.

1:23:08.583,1:23:10.724
Okay, these are kids and these are not

1:23:10.972,1:23:13.389
just victims, they're your victims.

1:23:13.691,1:23:15.979
Ironically, holding myself accountable

1:23:16.272,1:23:18.793
would later be deleted. Later that month,

1:23:19.079,1:23:21.059
Morphee would release a statement saying

1:23:21.310,1:23:23.277
that they are permanently cutting ties

1:23:23.499,1:23:25.615
with James. But in the eyes of a lot of

1:23:25.846,1:23:28.131
fans, this was too little too late.

1:23:28.416,1:23:30.238
In light of the recent allegations against

1:23:30.491,1:23:32.694
James Charles, Morphee and James

1:23:32.966,1:23:35.180
have agreed to leave and our business

1:23:35.400,1:23:38.091
relationship and wine down sales of the

1:23:38.336,1:23:40.713
Morphe x James Charles product offering.

1:23:41.025,1:23:43.844
It is and has always been Morphe's goal

1:23:44.117,1:23:46.061
to create a positive, safe and

1:23:46.309,1:23:48.957
empowering space for all beauty lovers can

1:23:49.191,1:23:51.838
freely share their artistry and passion

1:23:52.111,1:23:54.231
for cosmetics. And Morphe is fully

1:23:54.693,1:23:56.567
committed in furthering that goal. I don't

1:23:56.806,1:23:59.730
know too much about PR but fuck all

1:23:59.974,1:24:01.900
if that wasn't really bad. First of all,

1:24:02.152,1:24:05.463
waited weeks to say anything and

1:24:05.697,1:24:07.270
when they finally did, they were

1:24:07.518,1:24:11.356
like we and James have decided to scale

1:24:11.629,1:24:14.935
back. Like, what do you mean we? Fans

1:24:14.935,1:24:16.519
were also quick to point out that all the

1:24:17.003,1:24:19.690
James Charles products were still being

1:24:19.933,1:24:23.032
sold at full price on their website. This

1:24:23.305,1:24:25.294
same week, YouTube announced that they

1:24:25.568,1:24:27.798
would be temporarily demonetizing James'

1:24:28.049,1:24:30.397
channel and as a result of all this, James

1:24:30.670,1:24:32.651
took a four month break off of social

1:24:32.872,1:24:34.806
media. When he returned he posted a

1:24:35.042,1:24:37.109
selfie on Instagram and announced that he

1:24:37.364,1:24:39.845
just posted a video called "An Open

1:24:40.129,1:24:42.707
Conversation" and I will say that this is

1:24:42.944,1:24:46.525
incredible on brand the worst way. Now the

1:24:46.778,1:24:49.259
comments on "An Open Conversation" are

1:24:49.583,1:24:51.736
so funny and this is this is the first

1:24:51.955,1:24:53.964
time that I have truly felt and notice

1:24:54.236,1:24:56.609
that there were so many people just done

1:24:57.334,1:24:59.426
with him. Like this video only has six

1:24:59.725,1:25:01.128
million views and I know that that's a

1:25:01.374,1:25:03.313
lot still, but in comparison to other

1:25:03.671,1:25:06.250
videos, even such as taking accountability

1:25:06.541,1:25:09.664
there was a huge dip in viewership. And

1:25:09.943,1:25:11.696
these people made the right call for

1:25:11.950,1:25:13.915
obvious reasons, and were also

1:25:14.190,1:25:17.321
fortunate enough to not bear witness to

1:25:17.605,1:25:20.098
this video turning into a makeup get ready

1:25:20.337,1:25:21.909
with me at the 4 minute mark.

1:25:22.216,1:25:23.881
An you guys know I posted my

1:25:24.127,1:25:24.951
"Holding Myself Accountable" video.

1:25:25.329,1:25:28.526
Absolutely dystopian fear. Getting sued!

1:25:28.826,1:25:31.831
In the following month of May, a former

1:25:32.270,1:25:34.992
employee of James, named Kelly Rocklein

1:25:35.347,1:25:38.177
sued James for wrongful termination.

1:25:38.458,1:25:40.541
And, let me just read you one of these

1:25:40.789,1:25:42.766
headlines so you can get the full gravity

1:25:43.122,1:25:43.945
of this situation.

1:25:44.535,1:25:49.049
James Charles' ex-employee speaks out

1:25:49.308,1:25:52.052
about lawsuit, claiming he didn't pay

1:25:52.290,1:25:55.041
overtime and asked her to shave his

1:25:55.351,1:25:56.390
butt. Ummmmm.

1:25:57.245,1:25:59.347
To get into the nitty gritty, the

1:25:59.635,1:26:01.799
specifics of the suit though, she

1:26:02.032,1:26:04.309
alleges that one, James had her working

1:26:04.572,1:26:08.197
12-hour days, seven days a week. Two,

1:26:08.479,1:26:10.528
that when she was promoted from video

1:26:10.811,1:26:12.885
editor to producer, he didn't hire

1:26:13.166,1:26:14.783
anybody to take over the former

1:26:15.075,1:26:18.210
position, so she was left doing both.

1:26:18.502,1:26:20.257
Three, she was not paid overtime for

1:26:20.522,1:26:22.754
any of this, and four, that she had

1:26:22.996,1:26:24.543
suffered a head injury in front of James

1:26:24.896,1:26:27.105
Charles. To quote this business insider

1:26:27.359,1:26:29.585
article directly, the head injury resulted

1:26:29.844,1:26:31.186
in her experiencing headaches,

1:26:31.481,1:26:33.496
temporarily loss of consciousness,

1:26:33.781,1:26:37.245
confusion, amnesia and other ailments,

1:26:37.536,1:26:39.192
according to the complaint. She alleges

1:26:39.426,1:26:40.950
Charles was not sympathetic to her

1:26:41.210,1:26:44.302
recovery needs and callously accused her

1:26:44.533,1:26:47.314
of not being dedicated to her job as a

1:26:47.615,1:26:49.408
result of her work being delayed when

1:26:49.696,1:26:51.794
she was hospitalized. And right after

1:26:52.074,1:26:54.253
Kelly returned from being hospitalized,

1:26:54.524,1:26:57.242
she was fired, despite never having

1:26:57.505,1:26:59.808
received negative feedback. Kelly also

1:27:00.079,1:27:03.150
alleges that James used the n-word in

1:27:03.380,1:27:05.311
front of her with the R &amp; R and everything

1:27:05.596,1:27:08.847
More on the ass situation, Kelly says

1:27:09.085,1:27:11.513
that James walked around the house naked

1:27:11.800,1:27:14.709
and call her names like "bitch" and once

1:27:14.971,1:27:17.813
texted her, "Kelly, I need help shaving

1:27:18.044,1:27:20.654
my butt in preparation for a revealing

1:27:20.942,1:27:22.420
Coachella outfit. James ha since publicly

1:27:22.692,1:27:25.519
denied all of this in a lengthy Twitter

1:27:25.785,1:27:26.162
video.

1:27:26.459,1:27:28.083
Just the craziest claims you can ever

1:27:28.291,1:27:28.931
imagine.

1:27:29.210,1:27:30.949
But the suit is still ongoing.

1:27:31.304,1:27:33.506
Although, I will say I can totally see him

1:27:33.753,1:27:35.493
doing all these things. Kelly, get behind

1:27:35.733,1:27:38.934
me. 2022 was a relatively quiet year for

1:27:39.213,1:27:41.585
this MF. Like, his only controversy was

1:27:41.899,1:27:44.521
talking on Instagram and twerking while

1:27:44.827,1:27:46.751
talked which resulted in him losing

1:27:47.033,1:27:50.972
130,000 followers in a day and I won't

1:27:51.223,1:27:52.998
show you that video here because you don't

1:27:53.253,1:27:55.760
deserve that. Everybody say "Thank you

1:27:55.965,1:27:58.681
Nikki!" And by the way, if you didn't

1:27:58.999,1:28:00.855
unfollow him for the groping but you did

1:28:01.101,1:28:02.900
for the talking and the twerking, I don't

1:28:03.132,1:28:04.822
know. It might be time for me to take

1:28:05.091,1:28:06.188
you out behind the barn and shoot you.

1:28:06.500,1:28:09.359
Since May 6, 2023, Morphe would end up

1:28:09.627,1:28:12.385
closing all of it's stores and this was a

1:28:12.634,1:28:15.129
crazy thing to happen for anybody who was

1:28:15.408,1:28:18.634
really into makeup in 2019 and 2020.

1:28:18.918,1:28:21.629
Like, it was a very popular store to the

1:28:21.932,1:28:25.431
point where it was valued at $2 billion at

1:28:25.670,1:28:27.316
it's peak, but the company had made the

1:28:27.550,1:28:30.445
unfortunate decision of fully investing

1:28:30.730,1:28:33.396
into James Charles and Jeffree Starr to

1:28:33.700,1:28:36.281
be the focal point of their stores,

1:28:36.576,1:28:40.017
especially James, like seriously I did not

1:28:40.275,1:28:42.868
know what the hell Morphe was before his

1:28:43.130,1:28:45.203
palette. The brand name had kind of become

1:28:45.465,1:28:47.665
synonymous with James, like he was their

1:28:48.011,1:28:50.864
most successful product. In other words,

1:28:51.161,1:28:53.473
James Charles is virtually the reason why

1:28:53.778,1:28:56.760
Morphe died. Like, that is very crazy to

1:28:57.014,1:28:59.177
think about. Bro brought down an entire

1:28:59.450,1:29:03.623
industry. On July 13, 2023, Cosmopolitan

1:29:03.925,1:29:06.030
published an article about James titled

1:29:06.305,1:29:08.112
"James Charles would like to be

1:29:08.362,1:29:11.368
uncancelled, please". This article, quite

1:29:11.624,1:29:14.211
frankly, is a blasphemous peace of trash.

1:29:14.521,1:29:16.609
Honestly, the woman who wrote it,

1:29:16.870,1:29:19.533
Gabrielle Bluestone should have to serve

1:29:19.767,1:29:21.604
public service for 6 months, just for

1:29:22.076,1:29:22.825
writing this shit, because it is so foul

1:29:24.133,1:29:25.887
you need to picking things up on the

1:29:26.125,1:29:28.261
highway. Get out of here. Let me just

1:29:28.504,1:29:29.749
read you a direct quote from here.

1:29:30.058,1:29:32.377
It's no surprise that a star's willingness

1:29:32.660,1:29:34.812
to answer any intimate questions about a

1:29:35.111,1:29:36.737
catastrophic stretch of their lives,

1:29:37.031,1:29:40.090
including pieces dramatically when they

1:29:40.352,1:29:41.470
have a project to promote. In today's

1:29:41.762,1:29:44.044
case, that is ostensibly Charles' new

1:29:44.317,1:29:46.242
makeup line "Painted". But it's also

1:29:46.520,1:29:49.698
Charles himself. This very interview is to

1:29:49.995,1:29:52.592
be a triplum. It's reception, the answer

1:29:52.916,1:29:55.736
to the question both of us and maybe

1:29:56.006,1:29:58.184
you, too. If what auto-populates in

1:29:59.038,1:30:00.790
Google search can be believed, are here to

1:30:01.054,1:30:04.241
ask, "Is James Charles still cancelled?"

1:30:04.558,1:30:07.658
So, that alone, basically self-diagnoses

1:30:07.924,1:30:10.917
itself that it purely exists for James to

1:30:11.406,1:30:14.701
win over public brownie points, so that

1:30:14.984,1:30:17.417
his new makeup line can do better.

1:30:17.662,1:30:19.679
Bluestone also writes, "When I pulled

1:30:20.024,1:30:22.491
friends and colleagues about Charles in

1:30:22.767,1:30:24.845
the run-up to this state, the general

1:30:25.253,1:30:26.730
consensus was that he had done

1:30:27.048,1:30:29.351
something bad, but no one was clear on

1:30:29.596,1:30:32.688
exactly what. This to me feels like her

1:30:32.968,1:30:35.714
claiming that these random civilians in

1:30:35.983,1:30:38.053
her office not knowing what James Charles

1:30:38.371,1:30:40.839
did is evidence that he hasn't done

1:30:41.197,1:30:44.667
anything that serious or at least less

1:30:44.949,1:30:46.870
serious than people are making it out to

1:30:47.156,1:30:48.667
be. Would is a real logical hootenanny,

1:30:49.010,1:30:50.598
I tell you that. The article then goes on

1:30:50.855,1:30:55.211
to say the wildest like, like...

1:30:55.649,1:30:58.476
My cat's looking at me. He's more cautious

1:30:58.785,1:31:01.777
now, although not so much that he's giving

1:31:02.053,1:31:04.856
up on the DM sliding completely. Instead,

1:31:05.178,1:31:08.136
he started requiring potential romantic

1:31:08.396,1:31:10.863
interests to provide ids before he'll

1:31:11.136,1:31:13.541
engage. I'm a club bouncer at this point,

1:31:14.061,1:31:16.274
he says, which even still hasn't stopped

1:31:16.540,1:31:18.563
the occasional breach of trust.

1:31:18.846,1:31:21.432
Earlier this year, a TikTok user shared

1:31:21.719,1:31:23.641
snippets of a flirtatious conversation he

1:31:23.938,1:31:26.667
had with Charles and which outlines his

1:31:26.920,1:31:28.782
requirements for a boyfriend. Charles

1:31:29.052,1:31:30.735
also tells me he recently caught a

1:31:31.028,1:31:33.890
17-year-old trying to lie about his age by

1:31:34.126,1:31:36.643
taking out a digit on his ID. And when she

1:31:36.935,1:31:39.837
asked James why, he wouldn't just use a

1:31:40.085,1:31:42.628
regular dating app to find a partner, he

1:31:42.878,1:31:44.370
basically says that he feels to exposed

1:31:44.627,1:31:46.722
on apps and that anybody can take a screen

1:31:46.979,1:31:49.552
shot of his profile and brag and tell

1:31:49.796,1:31:52.580
their friends about it. Ummm and ahhh,

1:31:52.813,1:31:54.001
but ummm, I don't know how to say this

1:31:54.248,1:31:57.912
nicely so, Are you stupid? How is talking

1:31:58.189,1:32:01.020
to people on social media any less risky

1:32:01.314,1:32:03.868
than using a dating app. The article just

1:32:04.140,1:32:06.942
got done saying that somebody leaked a

1:32:07.229,1:32:09.588
private DM on to the internet that was

1:32:09.826,1:32:11.491
from Instagram. It wasn't from a dating

1:32:11.680,1:32:13.595
app. It's also from a dating app you can

1:32:13.828,1:32:16.984
instantly verify like somebody's age. You

1:32:17.184,1:32:19.056
can investigate whether or not there are

1:32:19.282,1:32:21.185
catfish. You can investigate their social

1:32:21.437,1:32:23.724
media, if they have a link to the profile.

1:32:24.027,1:32:27.242
And so, at this point, I really have no

1:32:27.534,1:32:29.738
choice to assume that this isn't just

1:32:29.992,1:32:32.973
stupidity. It's malicious. Because you

1:32:33.245,1:32:36.540
know who's not on dating apps? Minors!

1:32:37.227,1:32:40.623
In September of 2023, James was seen

1:32:40.884,1:32:44.229
asking for a 17-year-old's age on a

1:32:44.229,1:32:45.874
TikTok live stream. And I mean, do I even

1:32:46.543,1:32:48.238
have to say anything? This is a direct

1:32:48.506,1:32:51.693
result of the same repeated behavior over

1:32:51.946,1:32:53.749
and over again. I found this clip from

1:32:54.013,1:32:56.128
Frenemies of all places that kind of

1:32:56.377,1:32:58.002
perfectly summarizes how I feel about

1:32:58.272,1:32:58.662
this.

1:32:58.959,1:32:59.893
Because you know what? These people

1:33:00.118,1:33:01.148
who are sick like this? They keep doing

1:33:01.400,1:33:03.276
it, but sick people can't help themselves

1:33:03.675,1:33:04.264
but do it again.

1:33:04.498,1:33:07.492
A normal person would have stopped. A

1:33:07.709,1:33:10.002
predator cannot help themselves.

1:33:10.338,1:33:14.376
In January of 2024, another boy would

1:33:14.612,1:33:16.700
come forward with claims that James had

1:33:16.935,1:33:19.067
talked to him inappropriately while he was

1:33:19.290,1:33:21.510
a minor, and this boy actually has a

1:33:21.792,1:33:24.514
screen shot of James sliding in his DMs

1:33:24.816,1:33:27.750
and saying "Age Check!".

1:33:28.018,1:33:30.656
He dmmed me that and I responded and I

1:33:30.938,1:33:32.824
said, " I am a very mature 16."

1:33:33.208,1:33:34.626
And, something that made me very sad

1:33:34.868,1:33:37.580
about this TikTok, where he talks about

1:33:37.821,1:33:40.054
all the inappropriate conversations that

1:33:40.250,1:33:42.267
they had was that had he says "I know

1:33:42.488,1:33:43.632
I shouldn't have been talking to him like

1:33:43.834,1:33:45.663
that. I know I had no business talking to

1:33:45.869,1:33:46.488
him like this.

1:33:46.776,1:33:48.042
Now I understand, right off the bat,

1:33:48.513,1:33:49.945
I shouldn't be talking like that or

1:33:50.164,1:33:52.116
chatting to like entice them.

1:33:52.370,1:33:54.737
It is just self-blaming of it all. It's

1:33:54.971,1:33:58.186
just.. It's said. Please allow me to just

1:33:58.408,1:34:00.839
like armchair/psychology this man for a

1:34:01.066,1:34:02.647
moment. James keeps getting himself into

1:34:02.915,1:34:06.675
these situations, right? And he blames it

1:34:06.929,1:34:09.042
on the fact that he can't meet people and

1:34:09.327,1:34:11.448
the way normal people can, but

1:34:11.722,1:34:14.835
riddle me this? Why is he the only person

1:34:15.080,1:34:17.314
with this problem. Like, do you know

1:34:17.854,1:34:21.434
how many gay influencers are in L.A. that

1:34:21.705,1:34:23.216
do not have this issue? Do you know how

1:34:23.482,1:34:25.761
many people, in general, just don't have

1:34:26.113,1:34:28.856
this issue? And I think what makes James

1:34:29.143,1:34:33.516
especially dangerous to be online is that

1:34:33.768,1:34:36.949
when he talks, he doesn't seem like a

1:34:37.245,1:34:40.851
manipulative monster. Quite the contrary,

1:34:41.045,1:34:43.574
actually. He's very well put together. He

1:34:43.810,1:34:46.294
can seem fun. He can seem creative and I

1:34:46.514,1:34:48.381
feel that that leaves his audience extra

1:34:48.625,1:34:51.302
susceptible to him. And to be honest at

1:34:51.530,1:34:54.276
this point, I think the only people that

1:34:54.535,1:34:57.191
start to watch him are younger teens that

1:34:57.426,1:34:59.693
just genuinely don't even know any of

1:34:59.946,1:35:02.438
this happened. James literally committed

1:35:02.696,1:35:06.604
a crime and he's not in jail. So, saying

1:35:06.973,1:35:10.922
that he should leave all social media is a

1:35:11.171,1:35:14.604
very light, light sentence. Like, my

1:35:14.912,1:35:16.413
brother in Christ, he should be in jail,

1:35:16.700,1:35:18.744
but he can't even do that and he's still

1:35:19.014,1:35:20.864
using social media the same way that

1:35:21.208,1:35:23.428
he's always has, as if none of this even

1:35:23.688,1:35:25.846
happened. It's ridiculous and as of was,

1:35:26.557,1:35:30.536
I can't help but wonder why with people.

1:35:30.821,1:35:33.823
I desperately want answers where there

1:35:34.371,1:35:37.812
are none like all of the time. And so when

1:35:38.118,1:35:40.864
it comes to people like James, I look at

1:35:41.117,1:35:42.387
pictures of them from when they were

1:35:42.617,1:35:45.346
younger. I think about how in this video.

1:35:45.643,1:35:49.111
James is just a few years younger than

1:35:49.362,1:35:51.268
somebody who he would prey on. It's so

1:35:51.551,1:35:53.959
disturbing that it almost makes me feel

1:35:54.236,1:35:55.978
bad for the person, because they

1:35:57.057,1:36:00.541
live as a piece of shit every day. To me,

1:36:01.121,1:36:03.801
to be so schemey and strange and creepy

1:36:04.048,1:36:07.087
seems very tiring. And this is just

1:36:07.416,1:36:09.920
a side tangent, but I always think about,

1:36:10.192,1:36:12.715
as somebody who has been through grooming,

1:36:13.001,1:36:15.014
is like no matter what, I would always

1:36:15.391,1:36:19.375
choose to be the victim rather than be

1:36:19.744,1:36:21.542
the person that hurts people. That's

1:36:21.824,1:36:23.876
just some food for thought. Like the idea

1:36:24.171,1:36:27.082
of being this person is ewwww!

1:36:27.383,1:36:30.150
That is about all I have for today though.

1:36:30.484,1:36:31.534
That is about all i can stomach.

1:36:31.844,1:36:34.603
Ummm, thank you so much for watching and

1:36:34.917,1:36:37.046
if you would like to see more videos, like

1:36:37.373,1:36:39.629
in this format, that would be cool.

1:36:39.960,1:36:41.698
I really do like, like putting together

1:36:41.901,1:36:43.469
all these slide shows. Big thank you

1:36:43.705,1:36:45.763
to my patrons! You guys are awesome!

1:36:46.053,1:36:48.977
I appreciate you so much and it is

1:36:49.225,1:36:51.494
actually, really wonderful to see so many

1:36:51.718,1:36:53.784
people connect into a little

1:36:54.025,1:36:56.075
community and the discord. You guys

1:36:56.316,1:36:58.081
are amazing. Before we go though, I also

1:36:58.356,1:36:59.827
did want to talk a little bit about

1:37:00.111,1:37:02.784
a fundraiser that I started about 2

1:37:03.067,1:37:04.929
weeks ago, called "Creators for

1:37:05.259,1:37:07.450
Palestine". This fundraiser is now

1:37:07.756,1:37:11.393
comprised of over a hundred creators and

1:37:11.692,1:37:16.329
we have so far raised over $700,000 for

1:37:16.567,1:37:19.608
Palestinian relief, which is insane.

1:37:19.939,1:37:22.718
Um, I did not expect this many amazing

1:37:22.969,1:37:25.805
people to get involved for us to actually

1:37:26.110,1:37:30.242
have a goal this large. Um, if you

1:37:30.506,1:37:31.803
like to support us, we are actually doing

1:37:32.055,1:37:36.030
a huge live stream on Thursday, the 30th.

1:37:36.353,1:37:38.038
I believe this video is coming out on a

1:37:38.268,1:37:40.781
Monday so this is just a few days away.

1:37:41.063,1:37:42.884
If you want to show your support, sharing,

1:37:43.203,1:37:46.441
or donating, that would be amazing.

1:37:46.741,1:37:47.867
Thank you so much for taking that time to

1:37:48.128,1:37:49.371
listen to me and, um, I will see you guys

1:37:50.151,1:37:53.050
very soon.
