James Charles

[Moominfan]

Anyone following the drama? Seen comments on twitter but not sat through bye sister yet

It is so shady isn’t it! I gave up and stuck with pixiwoo after a while - zero drama and domestic insta stories

She's the one who helped him when he was starting out, she gave him time on her channel when he was a nobody to gain fans. She has constantly promoted his products for him.

Her husband was his manager at the start and got him all the official contracts at the beginning of his career and didn't even charge for it, whereas a manager usually takes a minimum 15 percent cut of profit.

James charles is just a spoilt kid who let fame get to his, who sexually harasses people and threatens them with runing their life

She has over 8 million subscribers which i would class as big.

And she literally made his career as well

I didn’t say she wasn’t big. I said she wasn’t a bigger YouTuber.

She had 6 million compared to his 16 million before the scandal.

His sister schtick irritates me. That harmless twinkly act when he is just a grubby little boy.
He made some video at Coachella saying hed live to do a q&a about how straight and gay guys are able to have a sexual relationship.
"Its not that difficult "
Words to that effect.
The lying.
His voice.
If anyone needs to see what a lot of money in a short space of time e can do to a 19byear old, James Charles should be on a poster somewhere .
His fans will move among to the ext 8 year old slathering themselves in overpriced grease on I Instagram and JC will just sink out of sight

Well there's an hour of my life I won't get back.
Successful media couple help young wannabe youtuber set up and monetize. Act almost in loco parentis as his family are on the other side of the country.
Young youtuber acts like a dick and overshares on social media/is lairy at dinner parties/is a bit of an arrogant nightmare to his own parents and the couple 'parenting' him while he builds his career. Media couple quietly warn him to be more careful about oversharing.
Young youtuber makes business deal against the best interests of media couple.
She eviscerates him on social media and shares private misdemeanours that he has done which no-one in the public eye would have known about. His mother defends him so she goes after the mother too.
Young youtuber weeps in apology on youtube and loses millions of fans.
FGS. He's a lad who does makeup. Yes he's been an arse. If they really did care enough to 'parent him' then they would have torn him a new one off camera, not destroyed him.
My youngest loves JC. He is good at makeup and the makeup tutorials are good fun.
Beyond that it's all willy waving bollocks from a kid who doesn't know better yet. I suspect he'll be a lot more thoughtful in future. Tough way to learn the lesson though.
I never thought I'd feel sorry for James Charles, massive idiot and social media harlot that he is (and yes I did by the awful and overpriced palette at Christmas for yDD), but I do today.
My 19YO got stern words from me when he (massively) overshared on social media. I didn't publicly destroy him though.

Did you miss the sexual harassment part then?

Is it just that Harvey Weinstein was older that made it bad then? Or just because they are all male?

jeffree star did own up and apologise for his actions and personally I disagree with cancel culture it doesn't allow ppl to grow up and mature. he said those things a long time ago. I don't know enough about JC tbh, but I watched tatis video last night.

Dd explained it to me. He's a dick who doesn't understand NO means NO. Heterosexual men are not a challenge for him to turn gay.

YouTube him singing at the meet and greet. I sing better drunk and I am no Beyoncé.

What he's done to his mentor is beyond shit.

God this thread makes me feel so old and past it 😂😂.. I have never heard of any of these people.

I've watched Tati's video, she's someone on YouTube I will often watch.

I don't really have time to watch 18 year olds, but Tati is around my age and seems lovely.

Her video shocked me, I think she care across really well

She’s right to be concerned about an adult male whose main demographic is 12-16 being openly so over sexualised - he’s got it so so wrong. It’s ok to be gay of course but that doesn’t mean it’s automatically ok to say and do some of the things he does to that audience

12-16 GIRLS it should say

Napa is right.

JC is the bigger name re: subscribers, I really should have used the term that Tati was more experienced and her channel longer standing.

I would feel (a very very tiny) bit sorry for JC if he hadn't been repeatedly warned about his behaviour.

Tbh I think Tati summed it up pretty well when she said she'd kept putting down repeated poor behaviour to being immature and hoped he'd simply grow out of it. However, that just didn't happen and you finally have to accept that's just someone's personality.

I'm sure it was amplified by money and fame, but fundamentally he's demonstrated that he's not a very nice person and has zero care for his friends, his fans and people's sexual boundaries.

I've watched Tati for years and she gets more articulate by the year. She's a class act.

I wasn't going to watch it cos it was 40 mins but people were like "No, seriously, you'll be riveted even if you don't even care about these people" and lol they were totally right. I've never watched a JC video in my life, I've seen snippets of him on other people's videos and his cottonwool-mouth enunciation drives me crackers. So I don't give a shit about him. But by God I was watching Tatis video like 😲😲😲😲😲.

I just wished I had popcorn!

Did you miss the sexual harassment part then?
You mean where he wouldn't stop flirting with waiters and cameramen who were straight and/or uninterested and told him to fuck off? Or where he mused that he fancied the opportunity to 'turn straight guys' (no success) or where he said he was confused when he found some transmen attractive and it made him re-evaluate his sexuality (really hard time from the TRAs on that one).

He's a little twat, and a massive oversharer on social media. But he hasn't actually hurt anyone. All of this only became an issue when he took on the hair vitamin endorsement from Tati's competition. It wasn't the right thing to have done given their relationship. She still comes off looking vindictive in that video.

She didn't come across as vindictive to me, rather someone who was done with being lied to and used.

He said he didn't want to promote her product because he didn't think it was right to tell teens to take vitamins. She was fine with that.

He then promoted a rival product.

Why did that company target JC? - because they knew his association with Tati would damage her brand.

What does it say about your product if the person who's a friend, did your wedding make up etc is promoting its biggest competitor?

He did it for money. He sold out his friend and (assuming he told the truth about not promoting vitamins in the first place) his own morals.

I'm not saying he should have supported her in everything ie gratitude in perpetuity, but publicly fucking someone over whose helped you enormously is a very different thing.

He has apparently manipulated and blackmailed people into doing things they didn’t want to sexually. I’m pretty sure that

Is sexual harassment. No idea why that deleted from the end of my post, damn phone.

Yep, there is info that he did favours for bi curious men but when they realised they didn't want to go through with having sex with him, he threatened them.

He has openly said he tries to turn straight men, and gets angry when they tell him to stop.

Imagine if it was an older, straight male that gave free give aways and stuff to young teen girls and got them tickets etc as a nice gesture but then threatened them to have sex with him or else he would leak them to the internet, there would be an uproar

I've to much time on my hands. So trans scandal he said he 5.5 gay because he'd been attracted to trans men briefly....cur outrage for suggesting trans men aren't men. Shame it didn't get more people thinking, he could have been a spokesperson for the topic but apologised for his transgression. Not that there is anything wrong with a gay man not fancying a bloke with a vagina. I digress

This man doesn't lie either

And this!

@Emu99 That tweet has now gone. I do wonder what Jeffree was suggesting, that JC has done something illegal and predatory? But to who? His brother's personality comes off just as bad.

I've fallen down a YT hole too and watched JC's apology again and that was someone apologising out of necessity, I wonder if he has an antisocial personality disorder.

I saw a video of a young man telling his experience of JC and it sounds like it could be true, JC was angry when he wouldn't drop things to meet up with him or when the man would say he was straight, it resulted in JC tweeting saying the guy led him to try and get fame through being with him which resulted in this man getting hate messages. I can't find that video now or remember his name, I think his initials were GG or JJ. Obviously it could be true that the man was flip flopping about his sexuality but if someone doesn't want to sleep with you, deal with it like everyone else does.

He tries to 'break' straight men and then apparently/allegedly was emotionally blackmailing them with evidence or threatening to ruin them and their careers if he does, or they refuse, etc.

He's a disgusting, vile predator and if he was targeting women and girls in the same way he'd be in bloody court.
