- 0:23James. Hey guys, welcome back to Normal
- 0:27Gaze, where we take on insanity. I'm Brad Palumbo here with
- 0:30Clarkson Lawson. Guys, we're back and I've got a
- 0:33scratchy throat, so I'm going to be miserable.
- 0:36From what? From I have Hantavirus.
- 0:40EW, you know what? From the gay cruise?
- 0:43Yep. That's what I was doing.
- 0:45That was you in a past life. Now now I went to Universal
- 0:49Studios and I. So, Lily Tino.
- 0:53I got a Slytherin Cup, you guys. I didn't get Brad one I thought
- 0:56about. It and you considered getting us
- 0:58both Slytherin robes. Yeah, but this was already $35.
- 1:01And it's so funny because this man will spend $200 in a a week
- 1:05on DoorDash. It's food, it sustains my life.
- 1:08OK but my life the like the least God forbid that wasn't
- 1:11sustained. I can pull it.
- 1:15From you, God forbid that because you make us lots of
- 1:17money so. Thank you.
- 1:18Thank you very much. Compliments starting out the
- 1:20episode great. We are we just not going to
- 1:22address the first trap in the room her.
- 1:26She has earned her legendary spot on normal gaze.
- 1:30I wanted to get Brad. Where am I?
- 1:31I'm looking here. I wanted to get Brad one, but
- 1:34you were too cheap. They were $100.
- 1:36And I'm not worth that to him. I'm not worth a day.
- 1:38And I just felt like if somebody's going to order one
- 1:41for Brad, it should be Brad. Like he can do it.
- 1:44I think it's kind of funny if there's just one for you at 1st.
- 1:47We need to get you double horns though.
- 1:48We could get has a Halo. We could get James Charles jump.
- 1:52Scare. Don't get me started on him.
- 1:54Well, I'm going to narrator. He's going.
- 1:57We're, we're getting, we're getting into it.
- 1:59Actually, you know what? I'm ready for this episode.
- 2:01Yeah, like we are going to eat up James and.
- 2:04Oh no, we're not. Ever.
- 2:05No, like eat him. I would never touch.
- 2:07That no, he's not. All right.
- 2:09Wait, James Charles would? No, no, I guess.
- 2:12But I'm about to give you a would you rather OK, James
- 2:14Charles or Lily Tino gun to your head?
- 2:18Lily Tino is more masculine so she's more my type so I would
- 2:23have to choose Lily Tino I think.
- 2:25But that BMI? Though I mean, I don't know, I
- 2:30feel like Sue. The gun goes off, Yeah.
- 2:35I think, I think that might is that, yeah, I don't know what
- 2:38would happen. That word for sure.
- 2:40Anyway, presumably you've heard about the James Charles drama.
- 2:44Yes, I did, and I you made a good point in your post as well.
- 2:47But we're going to talk about it in depth.
- 2:48We're going to watch James. As you probably know by now, he
- 2:52made a very out of touch rant about a Spirit Airlines employee
- 2:58who may or may not exist who was laid off obviously because
- 3:01spirits going under and and sent him a GoFundMe request.
- 3:04And so we have his original video that's getting roasted and
- 3:07then we also have his first apology video that he then
- 3:10deleted and put out APR apology video because the first apology
- 3:14video isn't an apology at all. He basically just like y'all I
- 3:18stand on business. But of course that one has now
- 3:20been deleted. But the Internet is forever so.
- 3:23I can't get over my bicep, it looks so big because it's just
- 3:26blown up. Well.
- 3:28I'm and the zit is blown up on my face and you don't zoom in on
- 3:30it. And the ChatGPT make my bicep
- 3:33look. Bigger as well?
- 3:34No, it's just that big. What are you holding in your
- 3:38hand in it? My phone.
- 3:40But it looks like you can't really.
- 3:42I can't see it. Do you see what I'm saying?
- 3:44How it looks? They cut out my phone.
- 3:47What the? That looks So what in the I told
- 3:50you it's because he ChatGPT D it to make his.
- 3:51Biceps I did not ChatGPT it OK. Caught in 4K.
- 3:56Cardboard cut out USA or whatever the company is.
- 3:58They didn't sponsor this video. Eyebrow.
- 4:00You went with cardboard. Cardboard cut.
- 4:02I just googled how to make a blow up your anyways James.
- 4:05Charles James Charles. Yeah, we'll roast.
- 4:07Him Speaking of never mind what? Nothing I.
- 4:10Just got Adm on here. From a girl that said good
- 4:12morning James. I know you'll probably never see
- 4:15this, but if you could just take one minute to read it would
- 4:18really mean a lot to me. I'm really struggling right now
- 4:21because Spirit Airlines just found for bankruptcy and I
- 4:24haven't lost my job. Here's the GoFundMe link.
- 4:30Blair says something funny about James where she says that he
- 4:32sounds like he's always underwater.
- 4:34James permanently sounds like he's underwater.
- 4:37Charles, you've heard the voice when you're underwater and you
- 4:42try to talk. Yeah, that.
- 4:43Oh my God. Or like a in his throat, Yeah.
- 4:48I just everything about this gives me the ick.
- 4:51He just pisses me the off. Like I've tried before the PDF
- 4:56allegations to just be like, oh, like, you know, he's, he's
- 4:59creative, he's himself, whatever.
- 5:01But his vibe just feels very inauthentic and gross to me.
- 5:04I don't know. Yeah.
- 5:05I need donations help. I'm sure they do, sweetheart.
- 5:11I'm sure they do. You know what else would help
- 5:13you? Getting another job.
- 5:15Yeah, try that. Because in the time that it took
- 5:18you to copy and paste the same. Last.
- 5:20Message to myself who you don't follow, by the way.
- 5:23And probably 100 and. Celebrities you could have
- 5:25applied for 100 other jobs but you didn't because you're a lazy
- 5:28piece of and you're entitled and you think the influences and
- 5:33celebrities should fund your life.
- 5:34For you Why? Why?
- 5:36Would I ever help you? You're not a fan.
- 5:38You don't even follow me. You've never supported me.
- 5:40This is your first time gaming and you think that I'm going to
- 5:43send you money because you lost your job?
- 5:45Oh my God. Welcome to the real world
- 5:47sweetheart. People lose their jobs every day
- 5:50and you're white and pretty and able bodied.
- 5:52Oh my God, you're in a much better position than a lot of
- 5:54other people out here. Who are cringe cringe?
- 5:56Oh my God, harder. To make a better he brought in
- 5:59race to try to get some woke points because he knew how.
- 6:03Like out of touch and obnoxious everything.
- 6:05So he's like, oh, it's because you're white and like, bitch,
- 6:08that's not going to help. I don't want to smoke weed
- 6:10because I don't want to get fat. I don't know what else to say
- 6:15about it. But it doesn't stop you from
- 6:18taking edibles at dinner. I only take legal edibles.
- 6:22Disclaimer, Florida sells them at every store and I they're
- 6:28legal so I took one before dinner.
- 6:30Sue me. Sue me, don't sue me.
- 6:34Well, you may soon be able to take more edibles, though
- 6:37actually, not sure this would actually affect this, but
- 6:39there's a lot of debate and conversation right now about
- 6:41whether President Trump will reschedule marijuana.
- 6:44And according to our partners at Kalshi, people think that there
- 6:48is a 83% chance that marijuana will be rescheduled before
- 6:52January 20th of 2029 and a 35% chance it will happen before
- 6:562027. And this is of course, all about
- 7:00what Trump will or won't do on this.
- 7:04And Kaushi is the first CFTCA regulated exchange dedicated to
- 7:09trading on the outcome of future events.
- 7:12So if you think it's cool to see what people are thinking, what's
- 7:16going to happen, I have it on my phone and, and I'm getting
- 7:19updates about which markets I'm I'm trading on and everything.
- 7:23You think it's cool. You can go ahead and check out
- 7:25Kaushi today using the link in the description or the pinned
- 7:28comment or my code Brad P to get $20 free when you trade $20
- 7:33today. Now back to the show.
- 7:35Dogging on white people is not going to help with.
- 7:37This it's not going to give you and you made a great point that
- 7:40I'm just going to RIP off here. He's trying to be HRA.
- 7:42You can see it with the hand gestures.
- 7:43Like that really sassy, crazy, unhinged Instagram.
- 7:46By the way, I did comment on one of her posts and said come on
- 7:48our podcast Skinny Queen and she she didn't respond, But do you
- 7:51want me to DM her? Yes, direct message.
- 7:54Her we'll. Fly her out.
- 7:56She. Only does podcast when she flies
- 7:57out Yeah, we'll. Tell her we'll fly her out.
- 8:00She'd be so funny. But obviously with her it's a
- 8:02bit and she's and she's funny. It seems you're not funny,
- 8:06you're creepy. It's.
- 8:07Also like when a lot of gay men try to appropriate like this
- 8:12like unhinged female behavior and it doesn't work.
- 8:15It doesn't work the the reason people.
- 8:17Like when you're a predator that it really doesn't.
- 8:20Hit That's a whole other thing. Nervous.
- 8:22Yeah. It's like, it's kind of like
- 8:24when when like gay men try to be like female pop stars in music
- 8:28videos and like, be like them. Like, there's a lot of gay men
- 8:31who try to like, rob that aesthetic.
- 8:32And it doesn't work because the reason like these women are,
- 8:35like, admired is because they're kind of going against the grain
- 8:38of femininity. I don't know, There's just
- 8:40something weird about it maybe. He's like, listen, you could
- 8:43have just said nothing and kept it moving.
- 8:45James. You didn't have to go all rant
- 8:48about this person ask you for money after they've been laid
- 8:50off, but you want to hear my theory?
- 8:51Should we finish the video first?
- 8:52No we will, but my theory is I this person might not even
- 8:57exist. This might just be like a bot,
- 8:59you know, like a scam bot that sends out like links and stuff
- 9:03and he fell for it or just thought he'd have a little
- 9:05moment and. I think it's the latter because
- 9:08The thing is is I don't even get annoyed by scam messages and he
- 9:11has 10 times the following 15 * 20 times the following that that
- 9:15we have and we those messages don't bother us.
- 9:18So why are you triggered by one message when you have?
- 9:20Because Clarkson, the person didn't even follow him.
- 9:23No, it's not about death. And also.
- 9:25He's not offended, he's just trying to get he's trying to be
- 9:27HRH. And it's not working.
- 9:28It's not working. It y'all, you're just giving
- 9:30Michael Jackson. Sorry, I don't know how to
- 9:34imitate his voice without sounding like I have a mental
- 9:37disability. Just imagine your mouth is full
- 9:40of marbles and you're trying to speak anyway.
- 9:42That's girl, sorry. No, sorry, no.
- 9:45Sorry, it's not going to work, I don't already do it.
- 9:47Oh, but the other part where he's like, welcome to the real
- 9:49world, bitch, as you've been a beauty influencer since you were
- 9:53like 17, you're worth millions of dollars.
- 9:55Leaked out when TikTok was going to get shut down.
- 9:58Yeah. I remember that.
- 9:59Like you almost lost your job, bitch.
- 10:01Get a job, get to work, bitch. And yeah, and then complained
- 10:04about how Instagram is a scary place.
- 10:06Because. Welcome to the real world bitch.
- 10:09God forbid the algorithm doesn't censor all the comments about
- 10:12you messaging allegedly 13 year old boys.
- 10:15Well, that part is alleged, but he's admitted to messaging
- 10:18minors inappropriately. I I haven't done it.
- 10:21I haven't. Oh, you did I?
- 10:22Didn't because trust me, all of this is going to come up.
- 10:25We're going to roast this bitch down and but let's let him run
- 10:29the rest of his little yap here. To make a better life for
- 10:31themselves. Why would I help you?
- 10:34Aside from that, 17,000 people lost their jobs at Pier
- 10:37Airlines. Why do you think you need to go
- 10:39fund me? I can at least like 1% respect
- 10:42the mentality of closed mouths. Don't get that.
- 10:44Doesn't hurt to try, but honestly it does hurt to try
- 10:46because now you pissed me off. OK I'm not the one.
- 10:48Go find Mr. Reese. This is literally his entire
- 10:50shtick. I'm sure the next YouTube video
- 10:52is literally going to be like I rehired all 17,000 of the Spirit
- 10:55Airlines employees and it's going.
- 10:57To be the real life Hunger Games, the last one of them
- 10:59Spirit. Airlines plane gets to be the
- 11:01CEO of the new company and gets a house and a car $10 million
- 11:04that everybody else dies like go find that video to compete and
- 11:07baby, I'm not helping you. I'm not helping you.
- 11:10All you did was lost your job. Okay, welcome to the real world.
- 11:13I can at least understand if you were like James.
- 11:16I'm a long time fan. Here's a trillion years of DMS
- 11:19and and my support for you. I love you.
- 11:21You must prove your worth. To me, it's literally you.
- 11:25He's saying everything he says. Oh, you know, just get another
- 11:28job. It welcome to the world goes out
- 11:30the window if you send him enough.
- 11:31DMS if you follow him this is. I mean The thing is like people
- 11:35do have audacity. Can I say something?
- 11:38Oh God, do not say that you would sleep with James.
- 11:40Charles No. What the?
- 11:41I was literally, I was about to end this podcast and I was going
- 11:45to, even though you guys are married, I was going to divorce
- 11:48you on behalf of. I'm about.
- 11:50He who shall not be named. Too old for him.
- 11:53Yeah, I know, 20 maybe. He's an old bitch, Y'all that?
- 11:58Would mean he's into 8 year olds.
- 12:00I thought you were like, I thought you were like 40.
- 12:05This whore. Somebody said I rage bait you
- 12:08and I've just really kind of gotten into that persona now.
- 12:11You are you're. The body blue, Yeah.
- 12:12I don't even I don't even care about like sharing my opinions.
- 12:16You were rage baiting me on the one episode we did about the
- 12:18love. Don't judge where we.
- 12:20Yeah, because it was just so stupid that I'm like, I got to
- 12:22make some fun. Of 'cause you were just trying
- 12:23to defend the indefensible. Well, no, he was cute.
- 12:27We're not re litigating you trying to the death.
- 12:29Row we don't have to litigate it because I was correct.
- 12:34Anyway, back to James Charles. What was I saying about him?
- 12:38Oh, I was not about to give a Hear me out to James.
- 12:40Charles OK, So what is like? Listen, there's a lot of things
- 12:44where you could shave me. That's a bit low even for you.
- 12:47What I was going to say is, wow, you made me lose my train of
- 12:51thought. Oh, not this bad.
- 12:53But the touch of narcissism where it's like, well, maybe if
- 12:56you followed me, I would give you money, but you don't even
- 12:59follow me. So I don't care about your
- 13:00tragedy. Like 10% of that I could see
- 13:03you. Like, oh, no, I totally relate
- 13:05to that for sure. Like if somebody when people
- 13:08like, if somebody doesn't follow me and they like, I don't know,
- 13:10like, yeah, I would probably think the same thing, but you'd.
- 13:13Have the common sense to not. Do but why post about it?
- 13:15Because first of all, it's most likely that this DM is a scam.
- 13:19Second of all, it's like they're probably sending it to a bunch
- 13:21of people. There's so many weird people on
- 13:22the Internet that why are you as somebody with I don't know how
- 13:25many millions of followers a lot he's got to at least be
- 13:28surpassing 60 million and and like the cross all across all
- 13:32yeah why are you annoyed by Adm so then that like.
- 13:35Even reading your DM request. That leads me to the conclusion
- 13:38that this. Because you're hoping for minors
- 13:40should be involved. No, Yeah, actually, cause like
- 13:44what you it's either that's so many.
- 13:45Memes where it's like this. He would have responded if it
- 13:48was a 13 year. Old boy This was like a 15 year
- 13:50old boy with abs. Or God, that's the thing.
- 13:53It's like, no, allegedly. Is it alleged?
- 13:56Is it alleged you, James? I just feel like he's trying to
- 14:01do a bit and what's honestly so interesting about this is
- 14:04there's so many influencers with a huge amount of followers that
- 14:07are behind on the culture. Like this type of video probably
- 14:11would have done well 2020, end of 2023 into 2024.
- 14:15Before the class. Warfare before they're.
- 14:17Cheering for assassination? Like, well, yeah, because back
- 14:21then it was like, oh, you're edgy, you're cool.
- 14:23Like you're saying what people don't want to hear.
- 14:26But now it's like we've kind of surpassed that era where you it,
- 14:29we're like balancing. Out there's so much Rage Against
- 14:31wealthy people and affluent people, especially with his fan
- 14:34base are the like Luigi is so hot many of them and yet he
- 14:39thinks he's going to come up here as a multi millionaire and
- 14:41berate some and probably probably non existent working
- 14:44woman. The whole thing's a disaster.
- 14:47It it is very like MAGA influencer coded.
- 14:50Though I will say like this rant, I think it's like very
- 14:54much. Oh, it could Emily saves
- 14:55America. I could see.
- 14:57I could see her. Emily.
- 14:58What's like this? Yeah.
- 14:59You probably, she probably saw this video.
- 15:01Emily, I know you're watching. This he probably saw Emily's
- 15:03videos and saw like a MAGA influencer that's a woman do it.
- 15:07And he's like, oh, I kind of like this vibe.
- 15:09And then he does it and it's like.
- 15:10But you know who does this too? Savior.
- 15:13He posted video just like this but it doesn't hit with him
- 15:15either. It's like I find that to be so
- 15:18obnoxious. Although I don't know if he
- 15:19would do this about Spirit Airlines.
- 15:21Didn't he do a video? He did.
- 15:22He was like oh y'all are sad about walk with me?
- 15:26Y'all brokies are sad about Spirit Airlines going under IA
- 15:30Queen could never my checks from BB.
- 15:33I only be going first class. Like.
- 15:36That's a joke. I know he doesn't actually get
- 15:38checks from BB but from Prageru or whatever and that to me I was
- 15:40also. Yeah, I mean it is making fun
- 15:43of. Those.
- 15:44But honestly, it's kind of like a you can tell it's a bit with
- 15:47him. This seems very genuine, like.
- 15:50But also not though because he's also trying to be like HRH, like
- 15:54the funny but the sentiment might be genuine but the ACT
- 15:57he's putting on is not. Correct at all.
- 15:58Correct. Like I don't think that James
- 16:00actually cares about Spirit Airlines employees being fired,
- 16:04and I don't think this DM exists either.
- 16:06Well, I think it exists, but it's like a fishing link.
- 16:08Yeah, maybe it's from like a random profile.
- 16:11Yeah, it's it's from a Pakistani man.
- 16:13Is he? Curling.
- 16:13Does he have curls in his hair? I don't know is.
- 16:15He doing a perm for that. No, I'm I'm.
- 16:17I'm just. Wondering producer says yes
- 16:19that. Is what I can't see.
- 16:21I mean I should. If I looked like that, I'd just
- 16:23give up and I wouldn't try. I mean.
- 16:25Some. I have thin hair so I should
- 16:28maybe start perming my hair but not like I won't do a video.
- 16:31Let's just watch the end of this and then I'm going to get into
- 16:33the allegations, which I did look up, OK?
- 16:36You, I love you. I'm suffering with a really rare
- 16:38genetic disease that there is no cure for and I'm trying to raise
- 16:40money for myself and other people that have this.
- 16:43Maybe I would help. Maybe I would help because I
- 16:46love you and I appreciate you. This, this.
- 16:48You lost your dog. Oh, oh, oh.
- 16:52I mean, OK. What are we going to do?
- 16:54Nothing. I'm going to you do nothing.
- 16:57You know what you need to do. Go find a new one, girl.
- 16:59Thinks he's Kim K into. The workplace he's.
- 17:03Trying to go back, I want to say about this is and we talked
- 17:07about this, I made a TikTok about it is that I was like
- 17:09starting out making content. I was a like I was an, I was a
- 17:15very mean spirited person because I just was.
- 17:19But you were actually. Funny though, like.
- 17:21When you're when you pop up and it's like Aslan Bird is like
- 17:24don't send Clarkson. Love.
- 17:25I don't think, OK, I don't think that I don't think my Azenberg,
- 17:27I don't think I was a comment with Azenberg honestly, like.
- 17:30You weren't a no. No, no, no, I like I've always
- 17:33came from a good place, but like my delivery was very like mean
- 17:36spirited. I will say that.
- 17:37But as I've gotten bigger. You do that thing at the end
- 17:40where at the end of the three minute video bitching someone
- 17:43out. You do it.
- 17:43This is not me tik. T.O.K this is just for enter.
- 17:45For it's a respectful disagreement.
- 17:47Please don't go and bully this creator.
- 17:49Yeah, that's what I say. It's so the algorithm doesn't
- 17:51flag it. Does that work?
- 17:53Yes it does. OK.
- 17:55Because if it's an if an algorithm is summarizing all of
- 17:58your words and then it detects anti bullying sentiment and then
- 18:02somebody says it's bullying. Wow, you've.
- 18:04Really got it all figured out. Anyways, but the point that I'm
- 18:08making is that as I've gotten bigger, I've gotten more humble
- 18:11because it's like, even with like the normies, like we have
- 18:141000 / 1000 people whose pay us just to make content.
- 18:17It's humbling actually. Yeah, I, I look, I literally
- 18:19like during the day I'm like doing nothing.
- 18:20I'm like, I don't what is my life like?
- 18:23I don't deserve this. I feel that way with the people
- 18:25that watch me. It's a privilege and an honor.
- 18:27And I also constantly think about like how they go out and
- 18:30they, some of them are teachers and they're getting up at 5:00
- 18:33AM and. They're like, I can't afford my
- 18:35subscription this month, but next month and it's like I.
- 18:37Wish, by the way, that YouTube had a functionality to gift.
- 18:40Subscriptions. If it exists, I have not to be
- 18:43unable to find it, because I would absolutely for those
- 18:46people if them free subscriptions.
- 18:49I I I can't find a functionality to do so or I would.
- 18:52Now, I mean, we're both bitches, but like we're not mean
- 18:55spirited. Like this is a level of disdain
- 18:58for somebody in a hard situation that I cannot comprehend.
- 19:02No. And all that's also even
- 19:05assuming it's authentic, which like I said, we don't even
- 19:07really think it is. But also the you have to be
- 19:10really dumb to think this was not going to go over extremely
- 19:14poorly. Do you think he knew it was
- 19:16going to go over poorly? No, you don't think so.
- 19:19I think he thought everyone was going to think he was Kim K
- 19:22saying nobody wants to work these days and it was going to
- 19:24be iconic and instead it actually enraged people.
- 19:28Yeah, I think we sometimes I give big creators too much like
- 19:32benefit of the doubt that they are like really thinking about
- 19:35what they're saying and how it's going to be perceived.
- 19:37But really they're just, I don't know.
- 19:40So I I wanted to point out a couple things.
- 19:43So one, I personally went to the comments on his video and
- 19:46everybody's just commenting the PDF sign.
- 19:52Oh my God. Which listen, but see.
- 19:54OK, this is this is the part that makes me know it's not
- 19:56authentic. You're angry over Adm of
- 20:00somebody asking you for money, but people are constantly
- 20:03calling you. He knows that's like.
- 20:05And you're not enraged over that?
- 20:08Because it's kind of. True.
- 20:09I mean, I mean. So here let me I went and
- 20:13revisited the facts. So I want to be extremely clear
- 20:15about what is and isn't he admitted in in 2021 to sending
- 20:21inappropriate explicit messages with 216 year olds and.
- 20:27He knew where they were 16. His claim was that he was not
- 20:30aware and that he thought they were 18.
- 20:32Got it. Since then a quite a number of
- 20:36young men, Roy's men now I guess, have come forward and
- 20:39said that he was Instagram messaging, snapchatting them
- 20:43when they were 141516 and then they how?
- 20:48Old was he when? 20211922 like he he was.
- 20:54Because if he's like a senior in high school and he's 18, that
- 20:57was. Different that, but it wasn't
- 20:59it's not like he's 40, but he's still too old to be doing any of
- 21:02this. Yeah, 14.
- 21:03And also like he at that point been a celebrity and there's
- 21:07this huge power balance and then he, these people show.
- 21:10And the way I'm, the way I'm coming from it is even if 50% of
- 21:15the allegations and screenshots that people have put forward are
- 21:18fake, right? Even, or even if 90% are fake,
- 21:23the 10% there that, that are real is enough that there's
- 21:27something very creepy is going on with this man where he has
- 21:30Instagram and you, you can see how sent photos, sent photos,
- 21:33sent photos, sent photos, sent photos, sent photo with
- 21:35somebody. There's no like normal 22 year
- 21:40old celebrity that's going be sending photos back and forth
- 21:43with a 15 year old boy who follows them.
- 21:46That's. Weird.
- 21:47That's disgusting. And it's also insane as even a
- 21:52self protection common sense thing as a celebrity.
- 21:56Even if you were creepy like that and you, you should have
- 21:59known that would go poorly for you just from pure calculated
- 22:03self-interest. Right, like you would think and
- 22:05like it. Let's say he didn't know, right?
- 22:09Why aren't you checking as somebody at your sat?
- 22:11Like whenever even on like grinder or something, I'm always
- 22:13like, I mean, I like older guys, so I don't really ever run into
- 22:17this problem, but I'm always like, OK, how old are you?
- 22:20Just to make sure I have it on record because you never know,
- 22:23like 16 year olds could be on steroids now and like.
- 22:27I mean, if I was him, I'd be like, send me your driver's
- 22:29license. Yeah, yeah.
- 22:31Like it. It has to be the vetting process
- 22:33has to be that. Serious nowadays.
- 22:35The thing is, it's not like it happened twice.
- 22:38When he was first a celebrity, he wasn't doing his due
- 22:41diligence. They lied to him and said he was
- 22:4218 and they were They said they were 18 and they were actually
- 22:4516 and he didn't think to like ask for IDs or anything.
- 22:49It's like at this point, it is a long pattern of behavior
- 22:52allegedly, but it's like very, very clearly something strange.
- 22:55But I agree with you that it it does make it does make it all
- 23:01the more strange that you're crashing out over somebody
- 23:03sending you a GoFundMe link when people are commenting PDF on
- 23:06your post all day. It's not even just comments.
- 23:08People are making full blown think pieces about this.
- 23:12I mean, we're doing it, yeah. That's why that you have to have
- 23:15a level of like, sociopathy. Is that a word?
- 23:18Yeah, but it is always strange to me how people's careers were
- 23:22ruined over like minor social justice transgressions, but then
- 23:26somehow he admitted to like, pretty serious wrongdoing and
- 23:30faced accusations of much more widespread wrongdoing and
- 23:34involving minors and every. And he still like collabs with
- 23:37the big brands. Lots of celebrities collaborate
- 23:39with him and he just like, never got cancelled.
- 23:42It was always a very strange thing in cancel culture where
- 23:44some people just got a complete. Pass.
- 23:47If you double down, you don't. That's the thing.
- 23:50If you already have a big enough following, it doesn't really do
- 23:52anything. So on this one, he originally
- 23:54did double down on this controversy.
- 23:56OK, but isn't it like, crazy that we're even talking about
- 23:58this controversy when it's like he should not?
- 24:00Be in other yeah or even OK, so let's operate under the
- 24:04assumption that James claims about his history are real,
- 24:08right? Like he didn't know.
- 24:09Let's say he was 18. They were 6.
- 24:11How old was he? Well, he's 26 years old now, and
- 24:15this was this was about five years ago.
- 24:17In 2021, he admitted to it. OK, so let's say he was
- 24:21catfished, right? We're going to operate on an
- 24:23assumption. We're going to give him the
- 24:24benefit of the doubt that he's catfished.
- 24:26Even if you were catfished and you were caught doing this,
- 24:30wouldn't you think that you would feel so disgusted and
- 24:34ashamed of yourself and want to repair your, you know,
- 24:38reputation that you would not be making content like this?
- 24:41Not rage baiting. Not rage baiting and making
- 24:43content that's like has disdain for the lower class.
- 24:46Like you're better than everyone because your plate is not clean,
- 24:50James, So you might want to work on cleaning it before, you know,
- 24:54making it messier. I don't know.
- 24:55So that makes me think he's just like, I don't know, there's
- 24:58something going wrong. And well, let's watch his first
- 25:01apology, which wasn't an apology, it was a double down.
- 25:04Let's. Watch that 10 toes down.
- 25:06Instead of spending an hour or copying and pasting the same DM
- 25:08to 100 different celebrities or influencers you could have spent
- 25:11the same amount of time copying and pasting a job application
- 25:13to. Or hear me out, put in a little
- 25:17bit of effort. If you want to send the DMS, at
- 25:20least spend 20 seconds before you hit send customizing it to
- 25:23the person that you're asking for money from, right?
- 25:25Hi sister James, I've been watching your YouTube video
- 25:28since I was a teenager. You really taught me how to do
- 25:29makeup and have positively impacted my life every single
- 25:31Friday. Hey, I'm in the situation.
- 25:33Do you think that you could help?
- 25:34Probably would have gone a lot further than a generic message.
- 25:38Or instead of copy and pasting the same job application to
- 25:40hundreds of different companies, send in 10 job applications into
- 25:43companies that you really care about and you think you could
- 25:45fit in with. And let's customize your
- 25:46application in the cover letter letting these recruiters or
- 25:49hiring people know that you're the best candidate for this job
- 25:52and why they should want you on their team.
- 25:54I know putting in the extra work and effort probably feels
- 25:56useless when you know that you're in a sea of DMS or job
- 25:58applicants, but trust and believe as somebody who's now on
- 26:01the other side of things, the little bit of extra effort does
- 26:03go a very long way. And unfortunately, taking the
- 26:06easy route is usually never going to work.
- 26:08You see, I don't disagree with his sentiment, but why is he
- 26:12trying to phrase this as like, oh.
- 26:14I'm I'm actually. Trying to help you because I
- 26:16know better. It's like you called them.
- 26:18Lazy to get a job bitch, but I'm not going to help you.
- 26:21You're not. This isn't coming from a good
- 26:23place. No, you're justifying you being
- 26:26an and us saying that is rich because we are but not like so.
- 26:31When people are half the time we're like, wait, it's kind of
- 26:34iconic. But with him, it's just not.
- 26:36No it's not. I mean, I feel like we mostly
- 26:39bully like bullies on here and we are ethical bullies on here.
- 26:43I'm trying to justify us being mean.
- 26:45We are going to talk about Lily Tino and how fast she got.
- 26:47That's fine, Lily Tino anyways. Well, now, so this was his like
- 26:52original like follow up video to the first wave of the
- 26:56controversy. But then it started to break
- 26:57containment and it was no longer just TikTok and now Youtubers
- 27:01and Twitter and news outlets were all covering this.
- 27:05And so then his PR team or his agent must have come in and he
- 27:08started the bed. He's like, oh, put out a real
- 27:10apology. I'm so sorry.
- 27:12I'm can you guess give us. OK, let me get in character.
- 27:17I was so sorry that. I was in a men spirited mood and
- 27:22I let myself get triggered but I really just wanted the best for
- 27:26my followers and that was me trying to give advice well in a
- 27:30heart moment. In my life, he did use the word
- 27:34trigger. No, he didn't.
- 27:35He did. Ha ha, I win.
- 27:38I can't do his voice. Though let's watch.
- 27:40As somebody with a platform. It's my responsibility to humble
- 27:42myself and to never take what I have for granted.
- 27:45And when I made that video today, you should listen exactly
- 27:47what I did. I was speaking from a very
- 27:50privileged, obnoxious, ignorant standpoint.
- 27:52And for anybody that saw that video and was disappointed or
- 27:55upset with what I said, I am super sorry.
- 27:57Especially to the woman from Spirit Airlines, I did try to
- 28:01look for her message earlier before making this video and I
- 28:04couldn't find it. If you see this video and you
- 28:06want to get in touch, I would love to apologize to you
- 28:09directly and to help you out a little bit, but if you are not
- 28:12comfortable with. That what happened to get a job.
- 28:15I really appreciate anybody that sent me a message or left a
- 28:18comment about this video today letting me know how insensitive
- 28:21it was. I really needed to hear that and
- 28:25I really need to think twice before I hit record and just
- 28:28start yapping on this account. See how the first one was him
- 28:32standing 10 toes down and then the agent called and he's like,
- 28:36I just want to humble myself, I am so sorry, blah, blah, blah.
- 28:39I want to help you out. What happened to get a job?
- 28:42Bit the HRH bit didn't. Work As soon as the brand deal
- 28:45started to come into question, you changed up quick.
- 28:48As soon as you almost lost your job, bitch.
- 28:51And it's actually funny, I forgot how much he melted down
- 28:53when they were going to ban TikTok and in hindsight just get
- 28:57a job bitch like. In well, I mean, your followers
- 29:00are what pay your bills. So if you're melting down in
- 29:03front of your followers saying I need this, I need this, I need
- 29:05this. You're basically doing the same
- 29:06thing the Spirit Airlines person is doing.
- 29:08Go out, get a get a real job. James, I want to see you working
- 29:10in the fields. In your because he'll be too
- 29:13ugly so in your culture. Clarkistan In Clarkistan, James
- 29:16would be doing manual labor you. See those AI reels that are like
- 29:23alt right or whatever they say? What do they say?
- 29:255 three month in Dagestan or whatever?
- 29:28Yeah. In Clarkistan actually, and we
- 29:30would not, you know who else would go in the fields?
- 29:33His plastic surgeon because. You should lose your license
- 29:38babe. But also some shit can't really
- 29:39be fixed. I think that if James was a
- 29:43normal person. I just had the worst.
- 29:45Thought got on testosterone and like was a little bit.
- 29:48More I just had the you're going to be so mad when I say this
- 29:50thought. Oh my God, don't I don't.
- 29:53OK, I'm going to say it and then I might make us edit out later.
- 29:56I was I I had the thought it wouldn't be so bad with the the
- 29:59pup furry mask over It's a joke. It's.
- 30:02Just not a brat. Brad is into pop play.
- 30:10This. No, this started out as a bit
- 30:12and I, I, I've been saying everything I do is a bit because
- 30:15it usually is, but like I think Brad is now doing bits, but he's
- 30:18forgetting that they're supposed.
- 30:20To be No, they're just. Because this is becoming a
- 30:23little bit of. Becoming concerns for me.
- 30:27It's a pad. You want me to pull up the?
- 30:28No, I don't want to mess up the hotspot.
- 30:29Oh true OK but I've I've been sending him reels and they all
- 30:33if. They are nasty.
- 30:34It'll be what is it like? It's like from the point of view
- 30:37of the the mat pup master. I don't know.
- 30:40We're not talking about this anymore.
- 30:42We're done. Did you see one of our videos
- 30:44got age restricted? Yep.
- 30:46And do you know what did it? Was it?
- 30:48Was you? What did I say?
- 30:49You're talking about, you know, you're going to have to bleed.
- 30:52All these, oh, you know, they're.
- 30:54Yeah, exactly. That was deemed sexually
- 30:56explicit. It was educational.
- 30:58OK, it was not educational. Yes, it was.
- 31:01Because guess who was right? Me.
- 31:03Just because you were right. Doesn't.
- 31:04I can't even say what we were talking about.
- 31:06We're. Not trying to get this video
- 31:09demonetized too. What else do we have to talk
- 31:12about with James? Just that he's crested.
- 31:14I mean, there's nothing else to say.
- 31:17Other than he should be on a watch.
- 31:18List I just don't like his vibe like even if his alligate like I
- 31:23try to take I'm not I don't believe him obviously when he
- 31:26says he didn't know their ages but just for legal purposes I
- 31:30try to take it. As true.
- 31:33And even with that, I just don't like.
- 31:35But then there's like there's like multiple people who have
- 31:38come forward with accusations against him since he admitted to
- 31:41those that you're thinking of. And they have like lots of
- 31:45receipts and obviously they're just allegations.
- 31:47And I do agree that innocent till proven guilty, but there's
- 31:53so much out there about him. I don't know.
- 31:56I think he's, he's really, really.
- 31:58Great. I just think like, I don't know,
- 32:00the job market is really bad right now and people are really.
- 32:04Gas prices are high. People are struggling.
- 32:06I sometimes I forget what it's like and I, I mean, we're not
- 32:10like rich rich by any means, but like we're not struggling.
- 32:14So we can. Pay our bills, we can pay our
- 32:15bills and we can. I can go on vacation for two
- 32:19weekends this month, but I like forget how hard it was when I
- 32:23was struggling and just thinking about that and like losing your
- 32:25job and not having a savings. I don't know.
- 32:27This, this video just was odd to me.
- 32:30It was very odd. But I do come back to the idea
- 32:33that it's very strange that of all things, this is what he's
- 32:37getting backlash for. And that makes me wonder if it
- 32:39wasn't all a plot from in the beginning to like, maybe make
- 32:43this why people hate James Charles instead of I.
- 32:46Don't think he's that smart. Maybe, maybe not.
- 32:49We're. Over intellectualizing this
- 32:51conversation. We do that a lot.
- 32:52Around, you know, where do we just want to hear ourselves?
- 32:54Yeah, we're going. To shut up now and you guys let
- 32:56us know what you think in the comments.
