You don’t get worse when you started out that bad. She’s been terrible for years but hid it fairly well or people were just blind to it. But I know it has always been there.
A mistake is accidentally stepping on your cats tail in the middle of the night because you can't see them. Sharing nude photos, talking to and then grooming children over and over again is NOT a mistake. Even more so when you KEEP doing it. Like this is a pattern.

Jesus, people are incredibly *retarded* (yes I went there, they aren’t mentally handicapped but I feel the insult is warranted) because these are the same people who will mock people with disabilities! Because they do think they are superior in some way just because they don’t have a disability and having one automatically makes you a lesser human. How else would you treat a grown man who JUST CANNOT HEAR AND HAS AN HEARING IMPLANT FOR SOME TIME, as an child who doesn’t see anything wrong with they are doing? He really sounds like one of those people who showed on Dateline. You know what? That reminds me one of the creeps who showed up to have sex with a kid had cerebral palsy and confined to a wheelchair. HE STILL PREYED ON KIDS AND KNEW IT WAS WRONG. Just like Trent knew it was wrong and told the girl to keep it a secret.
@@pokaay3163 right… I feel the fact her character is - when you boil it down - a disabled kid that has a creepy relationship with her uncle makes me think these kids definitely saw/experienced some kind of abuse when they were little. Even the deaf brother or maybe especially him which would be sick. Unfortunately, it’s a known fact many child predators were abused themselves when they were young. I feel Colleen is not likely to tell that story because it’s the kind of thing that rips a family apart. However, if she ever comes out with such a story, I’d probably believe her. Even if all my speculation is true, two wrongs don’t make a right and it certainly doesn’t matter for their victims.
How to spot a manipulator: Generalizes her predatory behavior on stage as a “fart joke” Also equates getting canceled as her getting violently murdered.
Twice in song she accuses the train of destroying her reputation. Her actions ARE her reputation. The internet just finally cleared the smoke and mirrors and now we can see what her reputation clearly. Colleen is the mask - Miranda and her uncle are the actual person behind it.
The face she makes after she says “fart joke” where she bites her lip and looks down as if she’s being crucified for nothing fills me with rage. How, after everything that’s come out, she was able to be so condescending and unapologetic is truly embarrassing.
@@jilllime3824the fact that the “fart joke” lead to grown ass men that were in the crowd, so actual fathers most likely, started looking at the minor it happened to in a veeeeery particular way, as said by the woman it happened to herself while she was a girl. LIKE YOU CANT ACT LIKE ENDANGERING A CHILD BY PUTTING THEM IN THE EYES AND MINDS OF PREDATORS BY SPREADING THEIR LEGS APART IS JUST A FART JOKE AND LIKE PEOPLE ARE BLOWING IT OUT IF PROPORTION. LIKE WHAT
Am I the only one who actually finds Miranda more palatable than Colleen? People keep saying Colleen is the mask. But I don't think so. I think Miranda is the mask. Because Miranda wasn't the one sending nudes of other YTers to literal children. That was all Colleen. Miranda isn't the mask because Colleen has shown her true face a million times AS COLLEEN. She doesn't even need Miranda. Miranda is just another way to get away with her fucked up behavior. 😊
@@demi8890and then after all that sent her a link to the toxic gossip train song, and then Trish saw the screenshots for herself finally.... the timing couldn't have been more oddly cinematic imo
We should stop calling this grown ass woman a girl lmao She's 36 with three kids and she was already 30 when she was at the height of her career, dming kids left and right
my favourite part is when she compares *getting called out for being a child groomer* to being murdered. it's giving 'to catch a predator' when the creep realizes that Chris Hansen has been filming the whole convo & has all the receipts. they'll just break down begging him not to release it, & immediately blame the crew of people there for 'ruining their life' - even tho they are the ones willingly who showed up cause they thought they were gonna be able to you-know-what a child. "but-but i don't want to face the repercussions of my actions!! waaah waah, i-i'm just dumb and everyone is being mean to meee."
The facial expressions, the tone of voice, and the actual UKELELE, to me at least, all seem like things she’s doing to appeal to her younger audience aswell. Because why on Earth would you ‘apologise’ this way? And she hasn’t even apologised! She basically just picked some strings and went ‘nuh-uh’ for over 10 mins
i think she knows she can’t get out of this with her adult audience who have the ability to understand the gravity of the situation so she’s like well i can probably get these kids to believe me!
@@cherryfleur8933which is sad because if you look at the comments there are a bunch that basically agree with her narrative. Fuck there's even a subreddit colleenballingersings where people are still defending her.
She really said “everybody makes mistakes. Everybody has those days…when you inappropriately talk to children in your 30’s and send explicit messages and pornography to them.” ☠️
This is the most aggressively passive aggressive thing I think any of us has ever seen on the internet, she literally used every excuse she could all at once. "It's not true, it's toxic gossip, it was in the past and wasn't as bad as people are saying, people are just being haters for clout, it was an innocent mistake, harm was never my intent, her actions were misinterpreted as creepy when it was her trying to be besties with everyone in a "loser-ish" type of way except when she was genuinely trying to be like a creepy aunt, Miranda did it all not me, the shows are pg13 the parents should have never taken there kids to see me, I'M ONLY HUMAN AFTER All, I'm not a bad person..." She threw EVERYTHING out as a defense.
She contradicts herself. “No, I didn’t do anything. But yes, I did some things but it was years ago and also, I didn’t have bad intentions. You all are toxic gossipers and I’m just a little skinny girl. You all should be ashamed of yourself”. She is insane
I love how she said talking about her sex life with kid fans was “a bit creepy”, as if a 30 year old man wouldn’t immediately be cancelled for the same thing.
Honestly, not surprising she tried to go that route. The bias against female predators being a thing is so ingrained in us, just look at Alex and fraser in the beginning with the comment about how she's less the weird wine aunt than the weird beer uncle. No, she is the weird wine aunt, and the wine aunt can touch you inappropriately just as an uncle can. (remember perks of being a wallflower?)
This song is utterly stuck in my mind and it's horrible, I just find myself at random parts oft he day going about my business singing "one way ticket to manipulation station" like I was deep in a walk in freezer clearing it out and my boss asked me what I was singing, I didn't even notice
it shocks me that shes made it this far doing all these horrid things. it's so clear how easily people got away with this sort of stuff and its so disgusting that people have only just started calling her out. especially when it was right in front of our faces.
Even Trisha didn’t deserve to be violated along with the 100s of children who were violated in the most disgusting and disgraceful way possible. Trisha may be bad but that’s just plain wrong ,their human too.
@@sumsumplays idk when lol i feel like that happened tho edit: ok so it wasn't banned but that character was removed from the book, it was called "The Worlds Worst Children"
You know what's so crazy to me, she sent random unsolicited pics and watchparties of trisha on her OF just to later make a podcast with her and invite her to her house. Adam also said that Colleen was actively hating jer and she was actually scared that trisha would find out and expose her OG trisha style. That is so disgusting she disgusts me so much.
Haters Back Off, on Netflix, was a fever-dream nightmare. The Miranda character has the mentality of a child but with weird… sexually perverse undertones. As awful as this is, it’s not that surprising. 🤮
I've been thinking about this and I realized she didn't make this video to try and explain herself and save face. This video is her throwing a molotov cocktail on the floor and running out of the room.
Look out you just won the smartest American award... Everyone in Australia who saw it worked out straight away she was passive aggressively telling everyone to suck her cock ..
its funny how all the things shes saying adam is doing is exactly what she did to him when he was 17!!! he got doxxed, swatted, and got death threats because he got fed up with colleen and tried to tell the truth
I’ve never groomed a child. In that sense, I *am* perfect. Also. I cannot believe how much this woman loves the sound of her own voice. Even down to the Closing Of the Eyes and Grooving out on How Amazing I Sound. I thought that “Miranda Sings” was supposed to be a parody of *other* people who thought they were better than they actually were. But now she *is* the people who think she’s better than she actually is. If that makes sense. Why is “porn” part of a kids’ show? Asking for a friend. I don’t have kids.
the fact that this woman is over 30 and formed friendships with underage kids is already so weird… like all the other stuff she did is absolutely messed up but that’s where it already should have stopped
I think it’s the predatory friendship that’s weird. Kids should be friends with older people because they can teach them life skills that maybe their parents didn’t and get them more exposed to good role models, mentor relationships are very good and the fact that any relationship between and adult and someone underage is seen as predatory is actively harming people. Kids should have good people to help care for a guide them through life (it takes a village to raise a child, after all.) Obviously this isn’t that kind of relationship, she’s a predator. But the stigma around normal mentor relationships is weird.
@@apidgin30they should have mentors, not be friends with adults. you don't need to be friends with a child in order for them to benefit from your relationship or have healthy boundaries and behavior from adults modeled to them.
@@AliceBunny05 Yeah i agree with that, ig i just worded it weird. Where i’m from any relationship that’s not romantic or family are called friendships even if they’re really not. But I still stand by the point that the fact that it’s automatically assumed that those relationships are predatory and weird is harmful, even if Colleen’s was.
@@apidgin30 yeah I agree. it's important that kids get some healthy interaction with adults modeled to them outside of strictly family, so that they are less susceptible to thinking grooming behavior is okay, because they already have a good grasp on what a healthy relationship with an adult looks like.
I realize now that the way you respond to controversy is actually much more important than the controversy itself (in terms of public opinion). She could have been fine originally but that song sent her career crashing down.
she really released this thinking that the majority of people believed she was in the right and would think this was the biggest hot take song that was ever dropped as if everyone relates to "accidentally" grooming and making literal children feel horrifically insecure
She literally acknowledges that people will probably disprove of the song then proceeds to post it as if that will somehow make people agree with her because she's 'self-aware' or something
When I went to her show in march as a 27yr old fat fan after only a few years watching her daily vlogs, she didn’t look at the front row of mainly adults and my mom and I once. Not a single glance down at us at all she was locked onto entertaining the rows of teen girls dressed up like her screaming so yes she’s fully for the kids
some fans that feel betrayed??? betrayed???? no sir those fans were sexually harassed by you. they don't feel betrayed. they feel angry, regretful, sad and god knows what else because of what you did.
the whole porn bit insane. Why would she think its ok to say those things and objectify a 14 year old???? and the whole reaching in her pants for a snack.. i didnt realize the context of that was they were on a "date". like theres just wayyy to many creepy things for it to be "a joke" or "gossip" or whatever the hell she calls it.
Fraser's right about 9mil being an underestimation because I haven't seen the original video and I've watched both of your videos on it. Yeah even the entirety of frasers. I'm not giving views to colleen lol! It's likely many others haven't watched the original either
@@liittlemiissdowning up to what she did, not lying and constantly blame shifting like she did in this video. she blames the kids parents for not deciding the show wasn't suitable for kids, when it's HER responsibility as the adult who's doing inappropriate things like talking about porn at her shows to not allow kids to have access to them. yet she doesn't address that or take accountability, she shifts the blame to the parents. she says the victims are making things up for clout, she never once addresses all the screenshots and clips from her live shows. this whole video is riddled with manipulation.
I can think of two reasons Colleen would go this route and I don't know which I think is more likely: Either "I've made a whole career out of being QuIrKy GirL, I'll just do something QuIrKy and tell my fans it's all fake and then I can move on, business as usual." Or "I'm going to do the most batshit non-apoligy I can think of and everyone will be so busy talking about my ukulele they'll forget about *what* I was in hot water for." If it's the second one, oops, people continue to remember what she did and now even more people know she's a garbage human. Fail! Also, I can't see Fraser on my screen without having a a Pavlovian response that I must comment BEANS
So I am not in the TH-cam drama sphere at all, most of my TH-cam views are political news, recipe videos and cinematography video essays. And SOMEHOW I have stumbled onto this horrifying world because she made this video. It's as you said, this ukulele bit absolutely gave her way more attention than anything else. I can't believe she got away with this behavior for so long.
i love 'film cooper's point on the intent - yeah she may not have had bad intent but like you said... WHAT WAS THE INTENT?! and regardless of what the intent was she needs to actually admit what she has done and yk maybe apologise
Something I’ve only seen a few people mention: In the beginning, she says that everything is untrue, but then in the last part, she claims everything is “a mistake”. Which one is it, Colleen? Did you not do it, and everything is a lie? or did you do it, but it was “a mistake”? She can’t even get her bs excuses straight
I can't stand anyone that throws themselves a pity party... I'm glad that they're holding this woman accountable .. I could never stand that stupid character she would play - when people would collaborate with her and she'd be that person , I would have such second hand embarrassment
Imagine all of the scenarios are gender reversed.....a man having a 9 year old reach in his pants....a man spreading the legs of a 16 yr old female....it would not be funny or taken lightly.
This is why there is a huge problem with the lack of recognizing females as predators too, and they keep getting away with it, because they down play it as "Oh, but I am a female, that's something MEN can only do, I am an innocent flower, and could NEVER do something like that...." . The double-standards. And before anyone @'s me for being a women hater, I am a female.
i mean, dont be obtuse lmao. everyone knows that the stereotype of a weird aunt is that theyre quirky and kinda out there yknow, whilst the stereotype of a weird uncle is one thats weirdly close to the kids.
Its bad enough that she asks little boys to stick their hands down her pants to pull out a "snack" but ahe literally puts it in the context of her and this child dating and "getting all close and comfortable" like its the first step in hooking up. Its so gross i agree if i was there with my son id flip the fuck out.
I've been trying to turn the volume down whenever it's her singing and then turning it back up when she's on pause. Not sure how well that worked, though, I can still hear "🎶 Toxic Gossip Traaaainn! 🎶" In my head 🥲
I kinda think this was her motive. With the speed the internet moves on from things, soon she’ll be more remembered for the song, rather than everything that led up to it. Another way of dodging accountability.
I don't know what it is about their chemistry but I feel like Alex and Fraser are the funniest when they're with each other. Idk why but the way they bounce off each other and enable each other to escalate the jokes really enhance their humour.
9 million is an underestimation because how many of these videos have i seen the entirety of the song without having to click on hers once. I think most of those nine million are commentary channels lol
I just finished Fraser’s 3 hour and 30 minute video about her I can’t get enough of him u don’t know how happy I was to see this pop up in my recommendation
I would literally criticise her to her face with this. As someone who has been groomed myself it genuinely p***** me off seeing her sing a song on a ukelele saying shes innocent
The fact she's diminishing what people have gone through by passing it off as some dumb mistake she made (which clearly any of us would also do) and summing it all up as gossip they made up for clout, like girl you literally broke the law, bullied and harassed a child and traumatised at least one fan on stage in front of millions of people Where are the lies/gaps 🤔
At least TH-camrs that have genuinely just made mistakes actually apologise. Meanwhile she deflects - a massive sign she's actually guilty. One of the reasons I like iNabber is because he's genuinely pointed out dumb shit he's done or contributed in like Shane's video about Jake Paul being a sociopath or just general opinions he no longer stands by because they're genuine mistakes that people just make. Not saying he's a saint (cuz obviously I don't know him) but there's a clear difference between taking accountability and singing about how much of a victim you are
I admire the courage you both have to confront this matter thoroughly, and you have managed to cover each other's blind spots. Quality programming indeed, so cheers. If there is still any doubt as to why she has selected this tone, it's because she is still pandering to her target audience. Thank you for doing the debunking work, so that we can all agree on this from the same plane of knowledge. Leave the kids alone.
I'm glad someone pointed out how she alludes to death more than once. Maybe it was supposed to relate to the whole train track theme, but it comes across so manipulative and guilt trippy. If facing the consequences of her actions is that hard then she can go off and live happily with her family and all her money, and in a few years maybe she'll stop being recognized.
Colleen be like: “Just because I made some mistakes, and spReaD some undErAge ChEeks on Staageee, doesn’t make me a terrible personnn. WhOahhhhh!!!!”🤨😭😭💀💀☠️
What their sexuality has anything to do with this? No one says “heterosexuals coming together to react to this”. People are weird. Not making a scene out of anyone’s sexuality is how people should relate to it. This thing about making someone’s sexuality their entire identity as a person is odd.
@@Dontmind8bro its a joke 😭. but people who make it their personality probably arent allowed to be themselves freely so they do that online in some cases :)

@@jilllime3824the fact that the “fart joke” lead to grown ass men that were in the crowd, so actual fathers most likely, started looking at the minor it happened to in a veeeeery particular way, as said by the woman it happened to herself while she was a girl. LIKE YOU CANT ACT LIKE ENDANGERING A CHILD BY PUTTING THEM IN THE EYES AND MINDS OF PREDATORS BY SPREADING THEIR LEGS APART IS JUST A FART JOKE AND LIKE PEOPLE ARE BLOWING IT OUT IF PROPORTION. LIKE WHAT
Am I the only one who actually finds Miranda more palatable than Colleen? People keep saying Colleen is the mask. But I don't think so. I think Miranda is the mask. Because Miranda wasn't the one sending nudes of other YTers to literal children. That was all Colleen. Miranda isn't the mask because Colleen has shown her true face a million times AS COLLEEN. She doesn't even need Miranda. Miranda is just another way to get away with her fucked up behavior. 😊
making fun of Trisha, behind her back, for YEARS isn't JUST a "mistake".. it was "a MISSION, for a DESCRIMINATION CAMPAIGN"..
Talk about toxic gossip
@@demi8890and then after all that sent her a link to the toxic gossip train song, and then Trish saw the screenshots for herself finally.... the timing couldn't have been more oddly cinematic imo
@@nickit7655......AWL ABOWRD.. 🤠
Trisha's only a victim to you people when it fits the narrative... weird how that is
@@mooma10or.... a bad person can also be a victim
Colleen's the type of girl to believe pulling out ukulele and invalidating victims with "toxic gossip train" is a good idea
I WAS JUST THINKING THAT,
Crazy man
We should stop calling this grown ass woman a girl lmao She's 36 with three kids and she was already 30 when she was at the height of her career, dming kids left and right
@@HappySoulLovesYoushe has infantilized herself for a decade, I thought she was younger, she's four years older than me lmfao imagine my shock
I see u on all of Alex and George's vids lmao
my favourite part is when she compares *getting called out for being a child groomer* to being murdered.
it's giving 'to catch a predator' when the creep realizes that Chris Hansen has been filming the whole convo & has all the receipts. they'll just break down begging him not to release it, & immediately blame the crew of people there for 'ruining their life' - even tho they are the ones willingly who showed up cause they thought they were gonna be able to you-know-what a child.
"but-but i don't want to face the repercussions of my actions!! waaah waah, i-i'm just dumb and everyone is being mean to meee."
The facial expressions, the tone of voice, and the actual UKELELE, to me at least, all seem like things she’s doing to appeal to her younger audience aswell. Because why on Earth would you ‘apologise’ this way? And she hasn’t even apologised! She basically just picked some strings and went ‘nuh-uh’ for over 10 mins
i think she knows she can’t get out of this with her adult audience who have the ability to understand the gravity of the situation so she’s like well i can probably get these kids to believe me!
@@cherryfleur8933which is sad because if you look at the comments there are a bunch that basically agree with her narrative. Fuck there's even a subreddit colleenballingersings where people are still defending her.
She really said “everybody makes mistakes. Everybody has those days…when you inappropriately talk to children in your 30’s and send explicit messages and pornography to them.” ☠️
This is the most aggressively passive aggressive thing I think any of us has ever seen on the internet, she literally used every excuse she could all at once. "It's not true, it's toxic gossip, it was in the past and wasn't as bad as people are saying, people are just being haters for clout, it was an innocent mistake, harm was never my intent, her actions were misinterpreted as creepy when it was her trying to be besties with everyone in a "loser-ish" type of way except when she was genuinely trying to be like a creepy aunt, Miranda did it all not me, the shows are pg13 the parents should have never taken there kids to see me, I'M ONLY HUMAN AFTER All, I'm not a bad person..." She threw EVERYTHING out as a defense.
She pretty much said “yeah, I did it, BUT WHAT DID I DO???”
She contradicts herself. “No, I didn’t do anything. But yes, I did some things but it was years ago and also, I didn’t have bad intentions. You all are toxic gossipers and I’m just a little skinny girl. You all should be ashamed of yourself”. She is insane
And then has the nerve to say she's "taking accountability" smh
Sounds like the narcissist’s prayer
I love how she said talking about her sex life with kid fans was “a bit creepy”, as if a 30 year old man wouldn’t immediately be cancelled for the same thing.
Honestly, not surprising she tried to go that route. The bias against female predators being a thing is so ingrained in us, just look at Alex and fraser in the beginning with the comment about how she's less the weird wine aunt than the weird beer uncle. No, she is the weird wine aunt, and the wine aunt can touch you inappropriately just as an uncle can. (remember perks of being a wallflower?)
Well I mean, she is being imideatly canceled for this.
This song is utterly stuck in my mind and it's horrible, I just find myself at random parts oft he day going about my business singing "one way ticket to manipulation station" like I was deep in a walk in freezer clearing it out and my boss asked me what I was singing, I didn't even notice
Lmao same 🤣🤣🤣
Ughhhh same. It’s killing me 😂😭

Yeah. Fraser is very kind for forgiving them all.
@Lucifer01432 what happened?
I literally clicked on this video so quickly
it shocks me that shes made it this far doing all these horrid things. it's so clear how easily people got away with this sort of stuff and its so disgusting that people have only just started calling her out. especially when it was right in front of our faces.
Even Trisha didn’t deserve to be violated along with the 100s of children who were violated in the most disgusting and disgraceful way possible. Trisha may be bad but that’s just plain wrong ,their human too.
You know you messed up when the Drama Queen of TH-cam takes the mature route
Just as a side note David Williams has also done the same things on stage. Harassing and abusing kids on stage. He should also be held accountable.
@olenchkaI think they’re referring to David Walliams- British comedian
@@antisocial.amandaand author, i'm pretty sure one of his books was banned for having a racist asian character ? i'm not sure on that though
@olenchka *Walliams phone autocorrected
When? 😭😭😭
@@sumsumplays idk when lol i feel like that happened tho
edit: ok so it wasn't banned but that character was removed from the book, it was called "The Worlds Worst Children"
It is impressive that Alex turned a 10 minuet video into 35 minuets and we need more colabs like this
You know what's so crazy to me, she sent random unsolicited pics and watchparties of trisha on her OF just to later make a podcast with her and invite her to her house. Adam also said that Colleen was actively hating jer and she was actually scared that trisha would find out and expose her OG trisha style. That is so disgusting she disgusts me so much.
UH OH
Haters Back Off, on Netflix, was a fever-dream nightmare. The Miranda character has the mentality of a child but with weird… sexually perverse undertones. As awful as this is, it’s not that surprising. 🤮
both alex and Fraser look so healthy and happy nowadays & it’s so nice to see ❤what a duo
There is absolutely nothing behind her eyes. I've seen a lot of bad TH-camr apologies, but this is the coldest thing I've ever watched.
I've been thinking about this and I realized she didn't make this video to try and explain herself and save face. This video is her throwing a molotov cocktail on the floor and running out of the room.
She's going to retire, going out with a bang. "You guys want drama? Well here, you can have *DRAMA*"
Look out you just won the smartest American award... Everyone in Australia who saw it worked out straight away she was passive aggressively telling everyone to suck her cock ..
Career Suicide note
I don't think anyone will be able to play a ukulele seriously ever again
She literally created 'Gaslighting: The Musical' but somehow we are the problem?
I hate having to watch her video multiple times because it's so cringey but I love all the different reactions lol
i love how you can absolutely slate someone and be so miserable but happy about it at the same time, thank you for your service Alex
its funny how all the things shes saying adam is doing is exactly what she did to him when he was 17!!! he got doxxed, swatted, and got death threats because he got fed up with colleen and tried to tell the truth
Yeah, but she thinks he’s having SO much fun with all of this! 🙄 so out of touch with reality. True Narcissist.
playing the ukulele after this feels illegal. i feel i need to pick up a new instrument
The island strum will never feel the same 😢
Just start plugging it into effects pedals 🤙 don't let this asshole take your art away from you!
I mean, guitar is like a big ukulele. Should probably be pretty easy to switch over right?
Harmonica is very fun lol. But knowing crazy TH-camrs they'll ruin that for us too 😭
Hawai'i's beloved instrument will have to recover from that reputation through no fault of its own :(
I’ve never groomed a child. In that sense, I *am* perfect.
Also. I cannot believe how much this woman loves the sound of her own voice. Even down to the Closing Of the Eyes and Grooving out on How Amazing I Sound. I thought that “Miranda Sings” was supposed to be a parody of *other* people who thought they were better than they actually were. But now she *is* the people who think she’s better than she actually is. If that makes sense.
Why is “porn” part of a kids’ show? Asking for a friend. I don’t have kids.
the fact that this woman is over 30 and formed friendships with underage kids is already so weird… like all the other stuff she did is absolutely messed up but that’s where it already should have stopped
And sending kids her underwear and nude pics of Trisha Paytas… what kind of a freak she is?
I think it’s the predatory friendship that’s weird. Kids should be friends with older people because they can teach them life skills that maybe their parents didn’t and get them more exposed to good role models, mentor relationships are very good and the fact that any relationship between and adult and someone underage is seen as predatory is actively harming people. Kids should have good people to help care for a guide them through life (it takes a village to raise a child, after all.)
Obviously this isn’t that kind of relationship, she’s a predator. But the stigma around normal mentor relationships is weird.
@@apidgin30they should have mentors, not be friends with adults. you don't need to be friends with a child in order for them to benefit from your relationship or have healthy boundaries and behavior from adults modeled to them.
@@AliceBunny05 Yeah i agree with that, ig i just worded it weird. Where i’m from any relationship that’s not romantic or family are called friendships even if they’re really not. But I still stand by the point that the fact that it’s automatically assumed that those relationships are predatory and weird is harmful, even if Colleen’s was.
@@apidgin30 yeah I agree. it's important that kids get some healthy interaction with adults modeled to them outside of strictly family, so that they are less susceptible to thinking grooming behavior is okay, because they already have a good grasp on what a healthy relationship with an adult looks like.
I realize now that the way you respond to controversy is actually much more important than the controversy itself (in terms of public opinion). She could have been fine originally but that song sent her career crashing down.
she really released this thinking that the majority of people believed she was in the right and would think this was the biggest hot take song that was ever dropped as if everyone relates to "accidentally" grooming and making literal children feel horrifically insecure
She literally acknowledges that people will probably disprove of the song then proceeds to post it as if that will somehow make people agree with her because she's 'self-aware' or something
And this is not including the racism and dodgy charities. Like there is even MORE to her scandals.
When I went to her show in march as a 27yr old fat fan after only a few years watching her daily vlogs, she didn’t look at the front row of mainly adults and my mom and I once. Not a single glance down at us at all she was locked onto entertaining the rows of teen girls dressed up like her screaming so yes she’s fully for the kids
The most infuriating part to me is the fact she says several times that she "took accountability" but never actually shows any evidence of that
some fans that feel betrayed??? betrayed???? no sir those fans were sexually harassed by you. they don't feel betrayed. they feel angry, regretful, sad and god knows what else because of what you did.
"I got a one way to ticket to sending a child a picture of trisha paytas" absolutely ended me 😂😂
the whole porn bit insane. Why would she think its ok to say those things and objectify a 14 year old???? and the whole reaching in her pants for a snack.. i didnt realize the context of that was they were on a "date". like theres just wayyy to many creepy things for it to be "a joke" or "gossip" or whatever the hell she calls it.
Fraser's right about 9mil being an underestimation because I haven't seen the original video and I've watched both of your videos on it. Yeah even the entirety of frasers. I'm not giving views to colleen lol! It's likely many others haven't watched the original either
"you don't actually want me to take accountability"
"no colleen that's literally what we want to do"
Define accountability tho, like what would you take as her actually taking accountability?
@@liittlemiissdowning up to what she did, not lying and constantly blame shifting like she did in this video. she blames the kids parents for not deciding the show wasn't suitable for kids, when it's HER responsibility as the adult who's doing inappropriate things like talking about porn at her shows to not allow kids to have access to them. yet she doesn't address that or take accountability, she shifts the blame to the parents. she says the victims are making things up for clout, she never once addresses all the screenshots and clips from her live shows. this whole video is riddled with manipulation.
I can think of two reasons Colleen would go this route and I don't know which I think is more likely:
Either "I've made a whole career out of being QuIrKy GirL, I'll just do something QuIrKy and tell my fans it's all fake and then I can move on, business as usual."
Or "I'm going to do the most batshit non-apoligy I can think of and everyone will be so busy talking about my ukulele they'll forget about *what* I was in hot water for."
If it's the second one, oops, people continue to remember what she did and now even more people know she's a garbage human. Fail! Also, I can't see Fraser on my screen without having a a Pavlovian response that I must comment BEANS
Third possibility: she realizes she's likely to be convicted for this and put out that video as a precursor to an insanity plea
So I am not in the TH-cam drama sphere at all, most of my TH-cam views are political news, recipe videos and cinematography video essays. And SOMEHOW I have stumbled onto this horrifying world because she made this video. It's as you said, this ukulele bit absolutely gave her way more attention than anything else. I can't believe she got away with this behavior for so long.
"They didn't say I couldn't sing... What I wanna say so-"
*Cat has entered the chat*
iNabber in a video less than 2 hours long? Mad
cackling at this
"Alfie Days isn't that bad"
Alfie Days: *cries* "I'm not a Tory" *cries*
i love 'film cooper's point on the intent - yeah she may not have had bad intent but like you said... WHAT WAS THE INTENT?! and regardless of what the intent was she needs to actually admit what she has done and yk maybe apologise
Time for you to make one.
Something I’ve only seen a few people mention: In the beginning, she says that everything is untrue, but then in the last part, she claims everything is “a mistake”. Which one is it, Colleen? Did you not do it, and everything is a lie? or did you do it, but it was “a mistake”?
She can’t even get her bs excuses straight
AAa
Not Alex actually learning the song on the ukulele 🤣
I can't stand anyone that throws themselves a pity party... I'm glad that they're holding this woman accountable .. I could never stand that stupid character she would play - when people would collaborate with her and she'd be that person , I would have such second hand embarrassment
I tried to watch her because she was so popular and all my friends liked her. She always gave me the ick and when I was young I didn't know why.
@@graciesugarbeeyour gut knew
It's sad how the 'weird aunt' is acceptable according to her but if this was a weird uncle it would be an entirely different story..
“They put their hands down my pants not the other way around!”
The fact she has a running "joke" that her character is being molested by her uncle.... like girl calling yourself the weird aunt is not the move 💀
Imagine all of the scenarios are gender reversed.....a man having a 9 year old reach in his pants....a man spreading the legs of a 16 yr old female....it would not be funny or taken lightly.
This is why there is a huge problem with the lack of recognizing females as predators too, and they keep getting away with it, because they down play it as "Oh, but I am a female, that's something MEN can only do, I am an innocent flower, and could NEVER do something like that...." . The double-standards.
And before anyone @'s me for being a women hater, I am a female.
i mean, dont be obtuse lmao. everyone knows that the stereotype of a weird aunt is that theyre quirky and kinda out there yknow, whilst the stereotype of a weird uncle is one thats weirdly close to the kids.
HOW DID IT GET WORSE?!
Exactly lol
It didn't, theyre just milking it. Be patient and Watch some of the video before asking easily answered questions
@@moxiemaxie3543don’t tell people what to do lmao
I think theyre talking about that it came out that she did blackface ON TOP of everything else but I could be wrong. Just picking up on context clues.
@@newalebroironically you just told them what to do
she is the musical theatre kid that all the other musical theatre kids hate
Its bad enough that she asks little boys to stick their hands down her pants to pull out a "snack" but ahe literally puts it in the context of her and this child dating and "getting all close and comfortable" like its the first step in hooking up. Its so gross i agree if i was there with my son id flip the fuck out.
25:07 “she’s going for A minor”💀
I've watched so many videos on this response that I know it off by heart and it keeps getting stuck in my head and it's scary 🙂
Same😭😭 I was lying in bed last night and could not get this stupid song out of my head lol
dont worry it's in all our brains forever, because what the actual fuck 😭💅
I've been trying to turn the volume down whenever it's her singing and then turning it back up when she's on pause. Not sure how well that worked, though, I can still hear "🎶 Toxic Gossip Traaaainn! 🎶" In my head 🥲
I kinda think this was her motive. With the speed the internet moves on from things, soon she’ll be more remembered for the song, rather than everything that led up to it. Another way of dodging accountability.
@@ezzie_aus knowing how manipulative she is, yeah 🥲
thanks colleen for serenading us its not as if youve traumatized every kid youve come across..
I don't know what it is about their chemistry but I feel like Alex and Fraser are the funniest when they're with each other. Idk why but the way they bounce off each other and enable each other to escalate the jokes really enhance their humour.
“How dare you emotionally manipulate me! If you keep doing that, I might do something horrible!!!” - a crazy person
I am slowly unwillingly learning this song. I have to watch my favourite TH-camrs though!
I caught myself humming it earlier. Dark times lol
I’m watching this after going to the pub, this is the only way this topic isn’t too overwhelming lol also I’m so glad to see Fraser in a video!!
As a linguist, I am confident that Colleen did NOT write the song. A British person did.
That’s so interesting, how do you know?
wow this sounds really interesting -i’d LOVE to know more if u can explain any of it!!
is it the vocabulary or the word stress? or something else?
No she’s just a theatre kid
please elaborate in a comment or a video form omg
Oh wow you tried this on your ex with the " ït wasñt yōür fāūlt"
9 million is an underestimation because how many of these videos have i seen the entirety of the song without having to click on hers once. I think most of those nine million are commentary channels lol
my man you havnt been recommended to me in like 4 years im so glad to see ur face again
🖤🖤🖤
I just finished Fraser’s 3 hour and 30 minute video about her I can’t get enough of him u don’t know how happy I was to see this pop up in my recommendation
I love how Alex takes every opportunity possible to show that he knows the song on ukulele
1:02 if only Lewis had had that advice
i've noticed alex cuts people off all the time- he doesnt rly let ppl talk
The only thing this woman cries and gets upset about is her own ego and reputation being damaged. No remorse, no guilt, no empathy.
31:02 --how British it is that all the mistakes he could come up with off the top of his head had to do with tea 😂😂😂
Can we take a moment to appreciate Fraser's glow up? 🥰
Waiting for yours mate 😂 oh the hypocrisy 👌
I would literally criticise her to her face with this. As someone who has been groomed myself it genuinely p***** me off seeing her sing a song on a ukelele saying shes innocent
The fact she's diminishing what people have gone through by passing it off as some dumb mistake she made (which clearly any of us would also do) and summing it all up as gossip they made up for clout, like girl you literally broke the law, bullied and harassed a child and traumatised at least one fan on stage in front of millions of people
Where are the lies/gaps 🤔
At least TH-camrs that have genuinely just made mistakes actually apologise. Meanwhile she deflects - a massive sign she's actually guilty. One of the reasons I like iNabber is because he's genuinely pointed out dumb shit he's done or contributed in like Shane's video about Jake Paul being a sociopath or just general opinions he no longer stands by because they're genuine mistakes that people just make. Not saying he's a saint (cuz obviously I don't know him) but there's a clear difference between taking accountability and singing about how much of a victim you are
Not just diminishing…she’s angry. She is furious that this is happening to her.
There's a huge gap though. It's the *age gap.*
I admire the courage you both have to confront this matter thoroughly, and you have managed to cover each other's blind spots. Quality programming indeed, so cheers.
If there is still any doubt as to why she has selected this tone, it's because she is still pandering to her target audience. Thank you for doing the debunking work, so that we can all agree on this from the same plane of knowledge. Leave the kids alone.
I'm glad someone pointed out how she alludes to death more than once. Maybe it was supposed to relate to the whole train track theme, but it comes across so manipulative and guilt trippy. If facing the consequences of her actions is that hard then she can go off and live happily with her family and all her money, and in a few years maybe she'll stop being recognized.
Colleen be like: “Just because I made some mistakes, and spReaD some undErAge ChEeks on Staageee, doesn’t make me a terrible personnn. WhOahhhhh!!!!”🤨😭😭💀💀☠️
9 million views not on top of how many people have seen the clips spread all over online. I REFUSE TO WATCH IT. She’s so sick

bisexuals coming together to react to this mess
What their sexuality has anything to do with this? No one says “heterosexuals coming together to react to this”. People are weird. Not making a scene out of anyone’s sexuality is how people should relate to it. This thing about making someone’s sexuality their entire identity as a person is odd.
@@Dontmind8bro its a joke 😭. but people who make it their personality probably arent allowed to be themselves freely so they do that online in some cases :)

Omg Alex im with u… if that was my son on stage grabbing Cheetos out of her pants, id be up there smacking her in the face x
“Maybe she’ll understand if we sang it to her”🤣🤣
the thing that makes me giggle about her response is thinking how many times she’s recorded it incase she got a lyric wrong
her deaf brother was apparently involved in this as well. he was in group chat. his name is Trent
I genuinely don't think she is lying, I think she is so delusional that she thinks she is telling the truth. Kinda horrifying.
Yep she is completely delusional
"I won't survive in the crash but hey" - every time I listen to it this line sounds like a threat.
