Why is that? Do people use a software to position models of players where all the layers are on automatically and they couldn't turn the jacket layer off?
If Etho ever plays MCC again, I’d LOVE to see his teammates all dress up as Naruto characters to keep the tradition of him not changing his skin. Someone on the MCC subreddit made skins with that in mind for MCC Kick Off, and I’m kinda sad they didn’t go with that. Still had a great time watching the team from Skizz’s POV, though
That would be so funny to just keep doing themes that Kakashi just manages to fit with. Different anime themes, japan themed, ninja themed, TMNT with a random Kakashi would be funny. Just dig into the bit edit: make it a creative challenge for the team for every MCC Etho is in with no repeats
@@sappical not exactly. His team that time dressed up as him so they all looked the same (minus their faces). I’m talking about his teammates being dressed up as other Naruto characters (someone on Reddit even made skins of Team TIES with Tango, Impulse, and Skizz as other Naruto characters while Etho remained exactly the same. It was very good imo)
Ethos skin is so ingrained in my head, that I just thought "ETHO!" when a friend showed me Naruto for the first time... (Or it's just that I'm uncultured)
I usually don't put too much weight in the idea that Etho can't or won't do something. He didn't like building... until he did. He wasn't good with noteblocks... until he was. He wasn't interested in MCC... until he was. Right now I'd put "changing his skin" as less likely than "becoming decent at Sword PVP" and more likely than streaming, asking for likes/subs, or face reveal. P.S. Thanks for compiling this info!
I feel like, much like every other bit of "etho lore" we've gotten in season 10, if Etho changes his skin it will be presented as the most casual thing, as if its not even a big deal
Love this video! The etho lore with that really old Mario skin is some bottom of the iceberg tier information. Doubt many of his OG fans remember that one! I certainly didn’t know
Commenting before watching, hoping you don't forget 'buttface Etho' Edit: ok, I'll explain 'buttface Etho' - I was randomly browsing on TH-cam when I found an old AnderZel video titled: "Mindcrack Caving with Etho Face Butt." This video is possibly the only appearance of 'buttface Etho' that still survives. Etho made a new skin for 1.8, but the Mindcrack server was still on Minecraft 1.7, and 1.8 skin textures don't map onto the player model properly in 1.7. This caused Etho to have a garbled appearance: with part of his shirt covering his face and other parts being completely blank! Most shocking of all, his miniature face appearing on his butt!
Not sure if this counts as a ‘canon’ Etho skin, but there’s also the white-eyed Etho clones that appear in episode 404 of the lp…anyway, great video! Thanks for putting all this together
I've been watching Etho for well over a decade and I didn't know about the Mario skin bit. It's funny because I was also a huge fan of Sethbling growing up and he became known for using a Mario skin so I like to imagine there's some version of reality where Etho never switched off the Mario skin and still got popular, leading to there being two Minecraft redstone creators with Mario skins 😭
This was very fun to watch! I'm suprised that there was so much to say on Etho's skins. I loved your idea of Etho changing his skin for a charity event! I kept thinking about what event would be the best situation for him to change his skin majorly for the first time, snd that sounds perfect! I'd kinda like to see that happen now, lol. 💜
Another excellent video. I actually learned a lot about Etho's history, he is a mysterious man indeed. I hope he does change his skin one day, I'm sure fans would go crazy. Thanks again for the mention of the archiving doc.
How did you even manage to expand this topic over 12 minutes?! 😭 Jokes aside, great history video once again. I just love how absolutely faithful Etho has stayed to himself, and especially his persona/character on TH-cam.
If Etho would be in blue team on the MCC, he can wear Kakashi's Susano, then it would be even the same character in the bottom layer and that blue on top, so technically, he wouldn't change his skin but activate ability
I feel like Etho is the type of person who would change his player skin for a simple joke and pretty much only for that reason, but the opportunity just didn't present itself yet.
It’s crazy that I’ve been watching Etho since I was a kid, and now I’m halfway through my undergrad. It’s a tad silly, but even with how much I have changed and ethos content has changed, it’s comforting that this somehow stayed consistent.
Etho also had his Millbee/Etho skin from the Mindcrack marathon. Everyone was wearing a Millbee skin because he wasn’t there (I think this is when he was banned on TH-cam).
It wasnt specific, but on the latest episode of the Imp and Skizz Podcast, they interviewed Etho and he reveleaded that the Mario Skin was based on the NES Mario, and that a lot of other people had that exact same skin. Great video!
As a Very longtime Etho watcher who has a memory for weird shit, I thought I'd drop a few notes and points mainly for the sake of the commenters! And also let me preface by saying the creator has done an excellent job, these are just a few things I've seen pop up! 1) Etho doesn't know how to/doesn't want to change his skin (for fear of breaking something) - I want to say this joke started in earnest during season 3 of Mindcrack (2012/2013)? At the very least, this was before the 1.8/1.7 skin update broke it briefly in the changeover. The fact that it has lasted so long as a gag is great, though. 2) I'm sure there are many people out there who were introduced to Kakashi via Etho and thought of this as the "Etho skin" without knowing it was Kakashi. Fear not, friends, now you know! 3) The 1.8 skin change was actually quite significant (I was a little surprised you didn't show us the before!) at the time- Before then, the face under the mask was plain colored around the base instead of having the band, and there was even a pseudo mouth? Sort of? It was two pixels roughly the same color as the mask but it was in the spot where a mouth would be, not attached to the chin! 3.5) The above was also before the head rendering(?) was adjusted so it would include hat features, so Etho was then subject to the bare face when beheaded issue that plagued many good men with layered skins at the time.
That was great. You did forgot the time Etho changed his skin for about 5 mins in one of his LP episodes. It was from the end of 2023. Can remember the episode name.
I swear In one of the first couple episodes of his Let’s Play he had a mask that covered his eye and “beneath the mask… is another mask!” Playing on the Naruto bit. I think it was something with General Spaz
The second skin is actually way more interesting than i thought it was? this whole time i thought he added the face on his chest *just* for Double Life, i didnt realise he's had that since 1.8
A little update for that Mario Skin if you watch the Imp and Skizz Podcast they had Etho on for two session and one he talks about his skin. Though what he said for the Mario skin is it was the 8-bit Mario skin because it was popular at the time.
I can think of at least two more times Etho had different skin (maybe 3 but I can't find third one now) 1 - Etho Plays Minecraft - Episode 394: Flying Sheep Farm (at the start) 2 - Etho Plays Minecraft - Episode 341: Minecraft World Tour (1.5 Million!) (1:05:12)
Etho influences me and my playstyle so much. I never made the connection to my skin history being roughly the same as his though, until just now. I started playing just a few months before 1.5 released (the update where he would invent The Etho Hopper Clock, one of my most used redstone contraptions), and a few days after starting, I found a Squall Leonheart skin that I really liked (the main player character from Final Fantasy VIII). I've only changed it once, and that was when 1.8 dropped. The girl I was dating at the time did a minor update for me, adding layers to make it more textured. It hasn't changed since, even outlasting the relationship. My alt account though... yeah, that's had dozens of skins and several name changes. Wouldn't be surprised to find out the same for Etho, silently and secretly out there playing on small servers.
I feel you, I’ve had 1 skin and then changed the color palette on it. I’ve added a Halloween mask and Christmas scarf but never changed it seriously other then that!
I do remember Etho had asked something like “How do I change my skin?” in game chat during the time when Mumbo made the original button. (In season 7 I think?) He did consider it, but ended up dyeing leather armor and wearing that, instead!
I honestly don't think Etho will ever change his skin, unless he was asked to by friends but everyone has such respect for him and admiration for him that I don't think anyone would want to ask him to. also I don't think anyone really wants him to.
@@molecoid He has a few meme skins he used to troll people on Hermitcraft and on the Life series, but yeah it's not on the same level as Grian or Scar. Can't wait! I am sure you will do an amazing job!
Don't know when or where, but I am confident to say that Etho has mentioned that he had issues with changing his skin regarding the Alex model for skins in the past and this withheld him from changing stuff as well.
Instead of a charity drive to change Etho’s skin, I’d love to see dual fundraisers where one side is trying to change his skin and the other wants to keep it the same
Finding out about the active/newer (i've been here since forever) ethoslab fans, is so wild to me. Like recently I found out there's the self proclaimed 'ethogirls' from the skiz podcast's top comment lol. Always been a passive fan- ie. only watch videos and it's so neat to see the actual communities be them new or old recently, like it feels like Platos Cave Allegory is my life lmao
I think if Etho *had* to change his skin, he would. But typically people just accept the fact that he doesn't want to hassle with it lol or they buy his "idk" excuse which I find more funny to think
as a more recent hermicraft watcher, this as the first time i heard younger etho's voice and he seems to have a stronger accent than right now? it almost sounds french too i havent considered him coming from french canada but its rlly interesting
You mentioning the charity event reminded me of a dream I had where X showed up to one and the highest goal was "Xisuma face reveal". the goal wasn't reached in the dream. But I imagine, knowing X, he'd be wearing a different mask under the scream mask.
I saw Etho's skin before i watched Naruto and instantly thought "Ooooh so this is where he got it from" and same with Ph1lza when i finally decided to watch bleach like 3 years ago. I got shook when i saw that it wasn't an original skin.
There was a skin swap charity event (season 8?) and I beleive that Etho was supposed to switch with either Cleo or Stress? I don't think it ever ended up happening because Etho had quit playing for his real life reasons at the time, but that was another potential Etho skin swap.
Just like Etho I've not really changed my skin since selecting one in the very early days of Minecraft..I settled on a (at the time) well-detailed Indiana Jones skin..
@@molecoid The mod that turns pumpkins into different things. Hermitcraft has it, Scar makes himself a new hat all the time! They could have done pumpkin ties for Limited Life, doesnt make Etho change his skin but still gives him the tie that Skizz wanted everyone to wear.
Etho is so real for sticking to one skin. Also if aren't already making another, you should totally do mumbo's skins next. I like using your vids as art reference for them cause the skin app wont work for me💔
wait omg. i remember when i first jouned the fandom it was always a joke (that seemed to be based off of truth for me) that etho didnt Know how to change his skin, and that the etho face under the jacket stayed Only for that reason. WDYM ETHO ADDED LAYERS AND THAT STUOID FACE HIMSELF. I GENUINLY NOT ONLY LEARNT SMTH NEW FROM THIS VIDEO BUT ACTUALLY LEARNT THAT I WAS _WRONG_
Always hoped he'd switch to a more original concept skin that was just inspired by Kakashi rather then directly being Kakashi himself, just because I've always preferred having unique and custom-made skins rather then ones anyone could theoretically use, or ones that are of existing characters. At this point though, that might be a bad idea if not impossible. it's gotten to the point where people see Kakashi and think "Etho" instead of the other way around. The Kakashi skin has BECOME his skin. Plus changing skins would be a whole branding issue, suddenly old merch is no longer accurate and the like.
@@molecoid was that even possible then? Id love to try and find the video to go check, but honestly have no clue how to even find it. It wasn't ethos video, maybe pause? Idk it's been awhile, my memory probably has warped it a bit
@@molecoid ok bcs i could not stop thinking about it, I did find the video... It was a head If your curious the video is orange wool on mindcrack by mcgaming
My friends tell me I'm like a knock-off Etho and recently I realised that I haven't changed my Minecraft skin since August or September 2013. Maybe they're right.
When I first started playing minecraft on Mobile. I had the Same skin as Etho even though I didn't know who he was. Lots of people would call me Etho and I had never watched Naruto, so... I thought Etho was the character in the Anime my MC skin was named after. LMFAO. I didn't find Etho until I started watching Hermitcraft in Season 6. Funny stuff. Now days I wear what I call the Lloyd Dobler skin. It's just a skin wear a brown fedora and a brown trench coat reminiscent of Lloyd Dobler played by John Cusack in the movie Say Anything. If only I could get my MC character to hold up a boombox playing In Your Eyes by Peter Gabriel.
Next mcc his team should all dress in other Naruto themed skins, like if his team is Lizzie, fbm, and oli. Lizzie could be Sakura, FireBreathMan could be sasuke and oli could be Naruto
I don't even like Naruto, but I do know that Kakashi is one of the most important characters for the series... and it's kind funny that Etho choosed that skin even before he became the guy who he is today... you know, one of the most important figures in Minecraft, you can probably say that Minecraft would be different if wasn't for him, how much different is another question... but certanly it would be different.
Etho is so popular that they made an anime out of him
Lol so true
Joel being the reason Etho finally changed his skin is so fun to me lol
I like to think, lore wise, Joel stole his shirt and never gave it back lmao
I love this idea lol
I love how even in fan art, etho is just kakashi. In hermitcraft fan arts you have some random minecraft youtubers and kakashi is just there as well
Yeppp
Your custom characters in the cutscene:
Etho should have Canadian leaf instead of classic one from Naruto)
@@scottdesemberer8751 agree
This isn’t a youtube short?? Wild
Trust me I thought it was going to be a short too lol
Lool
Yeah it’s WILD
@@zilkorvideos me or the comment
I will forever love how Etho's jacket was trolling TH-cam thumbnails for a good 5 years before Joel bullied him into changing it
I know right!!
Why is that? Do people use a software to position models of players where all the layers are on automatically and they couldn't turn the jacket layer off?
@@Pepso8P
Yeah all those MC characters doing silly thumbnail poses. I dont know the program but you nailed it.
What do u mean
etho is just dad lmfao all of the lore he dropped the current hermitcraft season is just craaazzzyyyyy
The setup drop shocked me
6:58 "ethos notorious for not wanting to change things, such as his ancient setup" 💀Im dead
The tissue box is 5 years old, come on

i also think just a little colour change on part of the skin like the headband or the badge on his sleeve would be cool for him in mcc.
Ethos skin is so ingrained in my head, that I just thought "ETHO!" when a friend showed me Naruto for the first time... (Or it's just that I'm uncultured)
Omg same I actually got a kakashi toy recently because to me it is etho
See, I was deep into Naruto well before minecraft started AND YET all that knowledge has been overwritten. That skin is Etho now.
I felt the same way about philza's skin. Its a character from bleach... And i almost legit blurted out "oh look its philza!" 💀
yes being a ethogirl has infected me, i have a friend who likes naruto and whenever they show me kakashi i’m like “ETHO”
Same happened to me
I usually don't put too much weight in the idea that Etho can't or won't do something. He didn't like building... until he did. He wasn't good with noteblocks... until he was.

Interesting, I think it will be a big deal since he never switches it!
@@molecoidfor us it would, but I can totally see Etho not even addressing it or just casually commenting on it like nothing important happened
That would be a VERY Etho thing to do.
If i were etho i would change my skin only slightly in a insignificant way so barely anyone would notice lol.
Oh people stalk his namemc they’d notice
@@molecoid building on the above comment if I were him I'd "change" it to be the exact same skin just to keep us on our feet

Yay, so glad you learned something!!
9:25 Joel is obsessed with Etho
YEPPO
Someone actually did a graph of the number of hermits mentioned in videos and aside from his own name Joel actually says Gem's name more then Etho's.
New lore dropped in Imp and Skiz podcast. Apparently it was “NES Mario” he had
Omg
Commenting before watching, hoping you don't forget 'buttface Etho'
Edit: ok, I'll explain 'buttface Etho' - I was randomly browsing on TH-cam when I found an old AnderZel video titled: "Mindcrack Caving with Etho Face Butt." This video is possibly the only appearance of 'buttface Etho' that still survives. Etho made a new skin for 1.8, but the Mindcrack server was still on Minecraft 1.7, and 1.8 skin textures don't map onto the player model properly in 1.7. This caused Etho to have a garbled appearance: with part of his shirt covering his face and other parts being completely blank! Most shocking of all, his miniature face appearing on his butt!
Omg I have never heard of this!!
I remember that episode. Anderzel was always the one to make me laugh the hardest.
Not sure if this counts as a ‘canon’ Etho skin, but there’s also the white-eyed Etho clones that appear in episode 404 of the lp…anyway, great video! Thanks for putting all this together
Yes I think it’s in the redstone dream episode too!! I don’t really count it as another skin but I’ll mention it to my archivers
bro once i saw like a kakashi keychain and i genuinely was like ‘oh cool they watch etho’
Etho merch yep
I must say the MCC teammates that Etho played with working with his whole "never changing his skin" tradition is very sweet and wholesome.
I suppose that’s one way to look at it, but to me it seemed like they didn’t actually discuss skins with etho and just assumed he wouldn’t change it.
I mean what could they have done? Deny Etho? Impossible.
I've been watching Etho for well over a decade and I didn't know about the Mario skin bit. It's funny because I was also a huge fan of Sethbling growing up and he became known for using a Mario skin so I like to imagine there's some version of reality where Etho never switched off the Mario skin and still got popular, leading to there being two Minecraft redstone creators with Mario skins 😭

To be fair, part of it could be MCC, to be fair
9:17 "Would you know how to change your skin Etho?" is so funnyy 😭😭

Thank you so much, etho is so so consistent and I love that for him
Etho's MindCrack Ultra Hardcore, season 4 episode 1 around 13:25 ish, Doc says that Etho changed his skin for the occasion.
:) yay for etho lore
Thank you!!

You’re telling me Ethos first skin was Mario, and Grians original skin was Link????? They are linked since the beginning
Yepppp
Only Ethos love for Joel could get him to change his skin. lol
Obsessed
Etho also had his Millbee/Etho skin from the Mindcrack marathon. Everyone was wearing a Millbee skin because he wasn’t there (I think this is when he was banned on TH-cam).
Someone else in the comments mentioned this! Very cool
It wasn’t a skin, it was just a Millbee head. Back then, the top layer of a skin would show above custom heads.
Can’t wait for Mumbos
It’s in the works!
Yay
If Season 6 had Etho. There’s a decent chance of Etho changing his skin if he joined Demise
Ooo interesting

It might have been a minecraft thing, they do that sometimes
Thank god Etho didn't use THAT anime skin. People that have seen the anime know.

Ooo I’ll have to look into this!!
Don't know when or where, but I am confident to say that Etho has mentioned that he had issues with changing his skin regarding the Alex model for skins in the past and this withheld him from changing stuff as well.
Oh hm, I did not find this info!!
Instead of a charity drive to change Etho’s skin, I’d love to see dual fundraisers where one side is trying to change his skin and the other wants to keep it the same
Omg yes that would be so cool!
Finding out about the active/newer (i've been here since forever) ethoslab fans, is so wild to me.
Like recently I found out there's the self proclaimed 'ethogirls' from the skiz podcast's top comment lol.
Always been a passive fan- ie. only watch videos and it's so neat to see the actual communities be them new or old recently, like it feels like Platos Cave Allegory is my life lmao
I can’t believe you haven’t heard of etho girls!!
"If it ain't broke dont fix it"
-Etho probably
Trueee
3:50 He said in a recent podcast that it was specifically the NES Mario skin
I saw! Very cool
etho's setup reveal is deeply hilarious to me, for one personal reason.
my mic, too, is sitting in a tissue box
Omfg not you too
When I wrote my comment on the grain video I didn’t expect it to be an actual video, I thought it would be a short lol
Haha so did I! Thanks so much for commenting that you inspired this video for sure
I think if Etho *had* to change his skin, he would. But typically people just accept the fact that he doesn't want to hassle with it lol or they buy his "idk" excuse which I find more funny to think
I totally agree!
as a more recent hermicraft watcher, this as the first time i heard younger etho's voice and he seems to have a stronger accent than right now? it almost sounds french too i havent considered him coming from french canada but its rlly interesting
He sounds way different in old videos, his inflection is different too. I had to kind of edit around his very long pauses lol
You mentioning the charity event reminded me of a dream I had where X showed up to one and the highest goal was "Xisuma face reveal". the goal wasn't reached in the dream. But I imagine, knowing X, he'd be wearing a different mask under the scream mask.
Omg I do think a charity event is the only way some of the faceless hermits would face reveal
This is a really neat video! :0 Love it!
Ahhh thank you!!
I saw Etho's skin before i watched Naruto and instantly thought "Ooooh so this is where he got it from" and same with Ph1lza when i finally decided to watch bleach like 3 years ago. I got shook when i saw that it wasn't an original skin.
I think tangos skin is also from an anime!
Etho having a kakashi skin is so fitting
Ikr
me; "oh every etho skin"
me; "what."
ok ok you did Etho now you gotta do his other half Bdubs skins
Bdubs is on my list!!
There was a skin swap charity event (season 8?) and I beleive that Etho was supposed to switch with either Cleo or Stress? I don't think it ever ended up happening because Etho had quit playing for his real life reasons at the time, but that was another potential Etho skin swap.
Oooo interesting! Thanks for sharing!
For a man that doesn’t change his skin I wasn’t expecting a lot of new info! A Mario skin was his og??
Yes!! I wish I knew which one
Just like Etho I've not really changed my skin since selecting one in the very early days of Minecraft..I settled on a (at the time) well-detailed Indiana Jones skin..
I also haven’t really changed mine, I picked one and then changed the color scheme.
I think a chairety event won't let Etho change his skin. I think Etho will change his skin when he feels like it and is not being told to.
I was suggesting he would volunteer to do it, not be forced to!
OH MY GOD YOU ACTUALLY DID IT
I did it!!
I would love to see a Joel skin history (even though the video would be multiple hours probably)
He has so many skins!! I am planning on doing one for him so keep an eye out.
People should just make those pumpkin things. He wears different things all the time!
Wait what pumpkin thing??
@@molecoid The mod that turns pumpkins into different things. Hermitcraft has it, Scar makes himself a new hat all the time! They could have done pumpkin ties for Limited Life, doesnt make Etho change his skin but still gives him the tie that Skizz wanted everyone to wear.
It my first time hearing etho's voice from that long ago and its wild! Lol
He sounds so different!
Etho is so real for sticking to one skin. Also if aren't already making another, you should totally do mumbo's skins next. I like using your vids as art reference for them cause the skin app wont work for me💔
Mumbo is on my list!!
@@molecoid YEAAHHHH!! can't wait, take your time😋
wait omg. i remember when i first jouned the fandom it was always a joke (that seemed to be based off of truth for me) that etho didnt Know how to change his skin, and that the etho face under the jacket stayed Only for that reason. WDYM ETHO ADDED LAYERS AND THAT STUOID FACE HIMSELF. I GENUINLY NOT ONLY LEARNT SMTH NEW FROM THIS VIDEO BUT ACTUALLY LEARNT THAT I WAS _WRONG_
Haha so glad you learned something new!!
Always hoped he'd switch to a more original concept skin that was just inspired by Kakashi rather then directly being Kakashi himself, just because I've always preferred having unique and custom-made skins rather then ones anyone could theoretically use, or ones that are of existing characters.
At this point though, that might be a bad idea if not impossible. it's gotten to the point where people see Kakashi and think "Etho" instead of the other way around. The Kakashi skin has BECOME his skin. Plus changing skins would be a whole branding issue, suddenly old merch is no longer accurate and the like.
He is kakashi at this point!!
@@molecoid Kakashi is Etho
I still remember the millbee skin bit from mind crack
I think that was just a head not a full skin
@@molecoid was that even possible then? Id love to try and find the video to go check, but honestly have no clue how to even find it. It wasn't ethos video, maybe pause? Idk it's been awhile, my memory probably has warped it a bit
@labdean222 I’m not too sure, some other comments have discussed this as well and I’m fairly sure it was a head!
@@molecoid ok bcs i could not stop thinking about it, I did find the video... It was a head
If your curious the video is orange wool on mindcrack by mcgaming
My friends tell me I'm like a knock-off Etho and recently I realised that I haven't changed my Minecraft skin since August or September 2013. Maybe they're right.
this skin lore is wild 💀
Yeppp
is that noteblock animal crossing music in the background
Lol yes! Done by me :)
I need to know how many Etho videos you watched to find the one about his Mario skin
I am an etho girl
When I first started playing minecraft on Mobile. I had the Same skin as Etho even though I didn't know who he was. Lots of people would call me Etho and I had never watched Naruto, so... I thought Etho was the character in the Anime my MC skin was named after. LMFAO. I didn't find Etho until I started watching Hermitcraft in Season 6. Funny stuff. Now days I wear what I call the Lloyd Dobler skin. It's just a skin wear a brown fedora and a brown trench coat reminiscent of Lloyd Dobler played by John Cusack in the movie Say Anything. If only I could get my MC character to hold up a boombox playing In Your Eyes by Peter Gabriel.
Omg how funny!!
Next mcc his team should all dress in other Naruto themed skins, like if his team is Lizzie, fbm, and oli. Lizzie could be Sakura, FireBreathMan could be sasuke and oli could be Naruto
That would be so cute!!
I don't even like Naruto, but I do know that Kakashi is one of the most important characters for the series... and it's kind funny that Etho choosed that skin even before he became the guy who he is today... you know, one of the most important figures in Minecraft, you can probably say that Minecraft would be different if wasn't for him, how much different is another question... but certanly it would be different.
Very true!
What about docs skin? I heard it has a lot of lore
He’s on my list!!
surprised this is longer than a minute, would love to see a lizzie one - these videos are amazing ‼️🩷🩷
Noted on the Lizzie video!! Thank you so much ❤️
