00:00 wow
this might be the worst youtuber apology of all time actually, she pulls out a UKULELE LMAO

G G7 C D7 :) hope this helps xo ~
screaming
gabi cover of the song when
“you were over thirty in the dm’s gettin flirty (with kids) toxic gossip traaaaain” idk i’ll workshop it
Tysm
Bro.💀
Her pulling out the ukulele was like getting hit by a toxic gossip train
then immediately being sent to manipulation station
Honestly I had to put my phone down and take a break. This whole experience has been… surreal
On g "toxic gossip traiAIaiiiin" is gonna be the new "womp womp womp"
And just victim blame
@@kiingblue💀😭
'im not a groomer, I'm just a loser." Aww don't sell yourself short, colleen.
You're both!💛
LMAOOO
NAH I CHOKED ON MY SPIT
i legit wheezed
LMAO
DAMN-
'YOU WERE IN YOUR THIRTIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIEEEEEESSS"
THE BEST PART OF THIS VIDEO HAHAHA
That part is so fire tbh
The real victim here is the ukelele. it had to go through every single take, every single mess-up, every single time she probably muttered something to herself before recording again.
Salute our fallen soldier 🫡 🕊
@@JoeSmith-qy6qoI feel like we should start a gofundme page for the ukulele. And the worst part is I'm not even joking. Which is very messed up.
This is actually offensive to ukulele players
"toxic gossip train" is crazy because there's photographic evidence that she was grooming kids. that isn't gossip, girl 😭
I keep chuckling cuz of this
Even fact is "gossip" if you're gullible enough. Never forget orange man.
There’s videos of her doing it
is it bad when i saw "that isn't gossip, girl" i instantly thought of the "go piss girl" meme, istg my humor is broken 😭
i wanna know why she calls it toxic gossip and then later in the song admits that she made 'mistakes' like which is it colleen
I don’t remember the last time somebody did something so stupid on TH-cam that everyone collectively stopped what they were doing just to say a collective…….. wait what the fuck???
Are you gonna make a video about it??
@@StrawberryPop2805 considering on my second channel and/or as a short bc this is just too wild not to talk about
I don’t even know who this woman is (even though I’ve been watching TH-cam for over 10 years… I guess she never made videos I was interested in 😂) and even I’m being looped into the rabbit hole that is this lady because this crazy AF “apology video.” 😂😂
Shane Dawson.
@@wartygourdyou’re so right it was probably that “BECAUSE YOU MESSAGED DRAMA CHANNELS!!!!” that was heard around the world
Imagine being in court for your murder trial where you slaughtered a dozen people, then the judge asks you "do you have remorse for this horrific crime you've committed?" and you whip out a ukulele and start singing a song that blames the victims
"your honor, sometimes people make a mistake and it doesn't make them a bad person, woah-oh"
No matter your race, gender, political leaning, sexuality, mental disability, height, weight, or age, we can all collectively agree with how godawful this """apology""" is.
It's something the whole world can agree on
Next thing you know she gonna be like “✨🎶the whole world is against me🎶✨” 😑
I don’t agree. I don’t agree that there’s any apology there. It’s a denial/self-pity/counterattack, not an apology.
truly unifying all people
@@eh1702 yeah, you're right
The fact that she’s excusing grooming children by making herself the victim is honestly sickening
Don't worry, she's just a loser 😊
Oh were you physically ill. Poor guy
@@cabbageman7990????
her ex husband said that she did this kind of shit to him constantly
Even if she's just extremely stupid and her intentions were not "as bad as a typicial groomer's" she should face consequencews, apolgize, explain... wtf was that? Does she think she's better than everyone else, just because she didn't assault anyone? Is the bar so low in her mind?
TH-cam apologies have officially evolved from "I'm sorry I got caught" to "It's your fault for feeling that way"
Women
My similar comments are being deleted!!!!

@@D.r.e.a.m.rthis isn't the first time we saw an atrocious apology that lacks accountability.
Colleen: “tOxIC gOsSipppp TraaaAinn”
The internet: “Colleen you forced a little boy put his hand down your pants ON STAGE THERES PICTURES YOU CANT SAY IT WASN’T YOUR INTENTION YOUR INTENTION ISN’T THE PROBLEM”
Colleen: “tOxIC gOsSipppp TraaaAinn”
She has own toxic gossip train 🚂 she the driver in disguised 🥸 and she the one who tell the lies and won’t take the criticize on her toxic gossip train 🚂 if she wasn’t in the wrong this be pretty good song 🎵 but she the maker of a toxic gossip train 🚂 as picks more people in manipulation stations 🚉 😂please sing this to the tune of ( toxic gossip train 🚆)
The people she hurt just want an apology and for her to leave, but she can't even do that.
No gender equality here. Can you imagine if a man the same age had done the same things she has done how differently he would be treated..? Welcome to feminazi rule!
"They didn't say that I couldn't sing..."
It's because they didn't think they HAD to
colleen: i took accountability
also colleen: i did nothing wrong!
ALSO colleen: everybody makes mistakes. sorry mr perfect 🙄
The Narcissist’s prayer on full display
@@maxman1071thought the same thing, the only part still missing is "you deserved it"
Also also: i'm not being manipulative, you are
This!!!
I’m surprised she didn’t go full Hannah Montana and start singing “Everybody makes mistakes, everybody has those days”
Gabi harmonizing/ also making fun of her is absolutely what this was missing
that shit was so funny
i was showering and just listening to the video and genuinely thought the harmonizing was colleen till i heard the “you’re in your thirties” 😭
I thought you were making an adventure time reference for a second, but yeah that bit was perfect. Felt like a Disney song
LITERALLY we need a full duet version
desperately need a full version lmao
The fact that Colleen has literal children of her own, and thought that treating minors like this and just ignoring it afterwards is so weird and concerning for me. The woman is a mother, and never even thought of how she would've felt if someone did what she did, but to her own children.
Some of these types of sickos have children for this very reason. Poor children, hope they're safe.
SHE HAS KIDS?!
@@konosmar8719 I THINK TWO OF THEM
agreed! especially considering the fact that's she's so willfully regarding the kinds of things she "texted" to these minors as a "creepy loser aunt thing" that we're apparently according to her supposed to react with a oh! okay! nvm! It honestly makes me very concerned about not just the kinds of things she does as a parent but the kinds of people and family members her kids are also living around
the fakeout ending is insane because like. it’s a pre-written song. she did not just decide to keep going in the heat of the moment.
the fact that she had plenty of adult fans who she could've tried to befriend BUT SHE CHOSE TO TALK TO KIDS
Also even if she were "just friends" with the kids and didn't talk about sexual stuff it's still fcked up and not normal in any way
Like, respond to fan mail and stuff, but don’t like talk to them in such intimate settings. You’re a giant celebrity, act like it.
THIS.
How likely do you think adults fans would of tried to befriend her? I went through something similar in that i was & still am looking for adults to befriend via/on the internet. Also i was dealing with effects of trauma. What happens(ed) is adults act like children on social media & the young act like adults in that many more of them attempt to take an interaction online seriously than there are adults who do. Very different in nothing at all sexual, lingerie, etc. but for a while there & unknowingly i was interacting with young people online talking about parenting & being an adult. Different than the TH-camr in that it seems she was aware of her fans ages while i was not. But same in that i can understand how odd it may seem to others but if you’re throwing content out there online & looking to befriend adults what can happen is adults treat you like a child & children act like adults.
@@hashtagmate
(Sorry for this part, Idk what happened but I corrected a mistake and a whole word was erased and I don’t remember how I started it, I’m not gonna rewrite the entirety of it so just know that.
FUCK TH-cam)
that’s why parents tell kids to not trust adults and you’re reinforcing the wrong idea;
That gal wasn’t wrong for talking to kids, and you already know that I know how to read, but for being a litteral monster. A SANE AND NORMAL ADULT has still the right to talk to kids. The first and biggest reason why parents tell to not trust anyone is because they’re too lazy to teach signs so it feels like every adult on earth is a predator.
Tell them that there are sick people trying to hug and touch them because they want love but it’s wrong the way they do because adults stay with adults and kids are BIOLOGICALLY not meant for that love, you don’t need to get into details if they’re young, if you know what to say they’ll understand the right parts
Making kids believe any adult who will speak to them is bad or harmful is not only damaging for their education but also hypocritical. What about the very parents? The teachers, the family? They can be dangers too and suddenly nobody talks about it, and you gotta trust these adults unconditionally. That’s what’s wrong, you don’t realize it and I KNOW it’s not your intention but you’re helping abusive parents and acquaintances of victims
Let’s just educate ourselves as adults and figure out why it’s always wrong to talk to unrelated kids ok? If I happened to sit waiting for bus and a kid sat next to me and started talking, this social norm tells me that I shouldn’t answer or shouldn’t help because they’re just a kid. I’ve seen this happen so many times when people are just people?
Do you genuinely believe every adult is a potential groomer? Am I? Are you?
That "fart joke" was her spreading a 16 y/o girl's legs so the crowd at her live show could see up her romper, then making a fart noise. Becky compared the feeling to a time when she was s/a. She said she felt unsafe walking to her car with all the predatory looks she was getting.
Colleen also brings boys who look around 10 on stage and puts a bag of snacks in her pants for them to reach in and grab.
It's mind numbing to see the sly little ways that groomers get their kicks. Then they try to justify it all later and blame every single victim. She seriously mentioned, in this video, her tiny disclaimer on her website that her stuff is "pg-13 guys" so anything inappropriate is fine. Like this has been a part of her life since the very beginning of her online fame. Ugh Jesus how does she not see how bad this makes her look
hearting to boost since i didn’t know this one, im sick ew 🤢
@@CadgerChristmasLightShowut is PG-13 not this rating that allows you only one "fuck" per movie and no nudity? 😮 I mean, it is not the most edgy rating out there, sure is not for toddlers, but you still need to curb edgyness Quit a lot.
She's the Female EDP holy fuck. Someone lock this person up.
@@itsgabibellefunny enough this was a chance for her to admit that what she did was messed up, admit to having inappropriate conversations with minors and apologise to the people that have come out publicly detailing how her actions have traumatised them. But the fact that she sees NOTHING wrong with what she did is scary. SCARYYY😭😭😭
All im gonna say is Jenna Marbles apologized for nearly an hour, in detail and so much sorrow, for buying the wrong type of tank for her fish. Im glad shes not part of the community anymore to see what a cluster f*** this platform has become...
why do i feel bad that she had to apologize for getting the wrong tank for her fish is kinda sad - why do i fell bad for her don’t get me wrong i love animals but still lol.
@lexiislilacs She has such a heart of gold. Nearly all the people she rose to fame with are having to put glorified statements out about horrific things like talking to minors, promoting scams, and being toxic pieces of garbage, meanwhile the worst Jenna did was buy the wrong tank for her new Goldfish and we still got a far superior apology from Jenna for that, than we did any other apology on the internet.
@@navibanfield1591 So, uhm, I don't know her, only just looked up her Wikipedia page, but not sure I agree with having the wrong fish tank being worse than blackface
@lnt305 As someone that grew up watching her I suppose I am probably biased, but as I did see the content in question real time, I can say that the apology that she made in response was not only during the height of the toxicity of 'cancel culture' but it was an incredibly mature and not unexpected, genuine apology to accusations that were taken out of context and blown way out of proportion. I cant really explain it properly but if you're interested I highly recommend the TH-cam video Why the end of Jenna Marbles is the end of Authenticity by Donna as it explains what I'm trying to far better than I can. Long story short she came from a time in TH-cam when it was treated almost like a video diary or journal, she was an OG and after nearly 15 years on the platform she was bound to have a video or 2 that would be deemed problematic by today's standards, and it was taken out of context for the time most of it was made.
@@navibanfield1591 awh that’s sad. she probably loves the fish too.
I love how she says “I’m sure this won’t change anyone’s mind about me” even though she’s now made everyone on the internet hate her, including people who didn’t even know who she was
A 30-year-old who asks children if they are virgins and what is their favourite sex position is not a weirdo, or a loser. It's a perverse adult who is sexually harassing children. And I say this as a current 30-year-old who as a child was in very similar situations to this one and still remembers how uncomfortable and inappropriate everything felt.
Same. I’m 31. I work with kids. I would never even think to ask them any of these questions. I don’t care about or want to know that information. It’s screwed up that she does! And I was also put in that weird position as a younger teen online. It’s just really frustrating to see her gaslighting people into thinking she’s taking ANY accountability when she’s deflecting and excusing this vile behavior.
Ok so where are the people in this convos? Why aren’t they presenting the full convos? Why are these just 3 screenshots from random group chats where no one’s age is visible? You’re assuming she was talking to kids and this was representative of ‘grooming’ but no one else has anything to show?
Think critically. Don’t assume anything. It all started with that guy who made a career out of him being sent lingerie as a joke. A bad tacky joke but a joke. The guy wrote jokes for her on her Twitter then one day offended a bunch of people and lost that privilege. That is when he started to ‘expose’ her.
@@mercurialshift5793 okay so are you gonna talk about the lives she did where she told a child that there was a snack in down in her pants? Huuuh?
@@whitneymouseWho was she talking to though? Those screenshots are of random group chats and there’s only a handful of comments like this out of all these years of apparent inappropriate behaviour? Where are these victims? That doesn’t seem odd to you? This doesn’t seem like something that just exploded out of Adam McIntyre’s pantygate? He built a career attacking her for stuff he thought was hilarious at the time.
@@mercurialshift5793yuck you’re really defending her
Gabi harmonizing her rebuttals with Colleen is honestly gold
The AMAZING DUET! What sharp wit, sharp tongue, and lovely serenade to say, “So long” as this self- induced train wreck goes off the rails over a cliff and spirals down in a blaze of glory,”🎶You were in your thirties 🎵🎤WHhooOoaAaoh” Just Perfect.🎭🤸🏼♀️🏆
seriously had me rolling on the floor and her voice is so good
lowkey fire lmaooo 😭😭😭
13:05
i want a full video of that
The way she pretends she's about to end the video then goes back to staring at her script is my favorite part
6:51 Gabi fully shows off how she can sing better than Colleen while making fun of her atrocity of an apology. amazing... 👏
She has a Disney princess voice!!!
fr gabis voice is magestic
I can't be the only one who cringed as Colleen said "goooooooOOOOOOOOOOOOOooooosSSSsssip"
This isn't a millennial problem. I don't know what this is. We don't claim her.
i'm so sorry, i love most of u millennials
I think it has to do with the concept of truth becoming less of a concrete concept and allowed by a wide variety of people to be completely relative. That "Live your truth!" thing being taken to the nth degree you know? And as a result people think they can make the thing they want to be true reality even if reality goes against it completely.
Thank god she's too young to be a gen xer. She is, however, channelling the chat with the audience singy-song style of Ani DiFranco, who *is* gen x.
@@glitchsampleshe can't "girl boss" her way out of this
Oh that's definitely a millennial thing haha
This was the “go on girl, give us nothing” of apology videos when it comes to actual accountability.
Sis was onto nothing‼️‼️‼️‼️💯💯💯
Nononono, you're very wrong.
She gave us something, but it was horrible 😊
@@TheSilverHermitMagewho let sis cook ‼️‼️💥💥💯💯
she's adding cringe to the soup!!!
Gabi being genuinely distraught over “whoa whoa whoa whoa” 😂
16:46
Colleen: *not apologizing*
Gabi: *pausing* “Not the ‘whoa whoa whoa whoa’ 😔
Literally was waiting for someone to mention this, I absolutely lost it
16:14
“Not a groomer, just a loser.”
COLLEN, HONEY, DW, YOU’RE THE BEST OF BOTH WORLDS :D
the worst of both words I feel like tbh
she literally wrote a kids' song to gaslight kids into not speaking out against adults grooming them
Oh gosh! I just realized it was cutesy for that reason! That’s disgusting! Plus, she’s a mother!
Omg that's very disturbing but so true. Colleen is hella creepy
oh, this point! Excellent point, top comment for me
THIS
@@8bitdaydreamsYa she is
I'm no longer subscribed to her channels and I stopped supporting her entirely
Not only that but she's a pedophile!
You harmonzing with an apology video in a musical theatre style is peak
IM FVCKING DYING💀
🎼You were in your thirties🎶
Literally I replayed that part like twice which is saying something bc I am SO fed up w Colleen’s goofy song 💀
13:04 fr I had to replay that part again bc it was so good
PLEASE we need a full version
She actually made the song catchy
i think we should acknowledge youtube being shady and it’s whole part to play in this. really gross creators getting away with so much while small creators are getting demonetized and silenced for talking about important issues.
And she couldn’t even say the simple sentence “I’m sorry” or “I apologize”
Coleen is living proof of an old saying "Its better keep your mouth shut and let people think you're stupid, than to open your mouth and prove them right
Takes one to know one!
HAHAHA FRR
Well,I much rather open my mouth and people think I am stupid they will stay away from me
@@brunhildevalkyrieHey, Colleen! How's the train ride?
@@EclecticallyEccentric I don't think you get the simpsons refrence
Funny how she plays the 'creepy uncle' role which is part of the problem, then refers to herself as the 'creepy aunt' as some sort of justification 💀💀💀
Yeah that was my first thought too. Comparing herself to a creepy aunt implying that those types of family members aren't predatory when they very much can be.
@@postrachsmietnikow Yep. I had one
"Creepy aunt" WHO IS A LITERAL STRANGER TO THESE CHILDREN... Sure thing... Lmao.
I don’t like my aunt (because she’s racist), but at least she never asked me if I were a virgin and what my fave sex positions were 😕
11:34 shes absolutely right
I’d never message literal children inappropriately
If you watch with muted sound, her anger is all over her face all the time, especially angry-smiling. She was FURIOUS the whole time she was recording this.
If by "perfect" she means not sending porn to and discussing sexually explicit things with kids, she's right. I am perfect
i didn't even really do that at that age lol like how would anyone think that's appropriate. like just talking to them is already really weird but if it was just that, it wouldn't have been nearly as bad and that's how she's trying to portray what she did :/
Did she send porn? I saw her asking kids if they were virgins (which is totally disgusting, yes). But I haven't seen evidence (at least in this video) of her sending porn.
@@gFamWebhe did Adam confirmed it, and so did another person who was working under her. She went and found porn videos of Trisha Paytas and sent it to minors so that they could make fun of her body. And make jokes behind her back (Keep in mind. This was an adult pressuring kids into this and also that both people I mentioned already apologized.)
I’m so perfect I don’t even talk to kids, honestly I’m beyond perfect in her eyes cuz I straight up don’t like kids
@@gFamWebhe sent Trisha Paytas’s nudes or something to the group chat to make fun of it. Honestly even with adults that’s insanely weird
The fact that she didn’t tell us how it’s “gossip” and “not true”. She pretty much just looked at the allegations, the mass amounts of screenshots and credible evidence, picked up a ukelele and went “NUH UH”
It's like the meme where the guy shoots the guy in the chair
nu uh'ed her way out of this with a insufferable ukulele
I keep trying to think what she's referring to with that, since she conveniently doesn't specify anything, and the only claim I've heard that's hasn't been backed up with proof was the claim that she would make fun of Trisha's OF in their weenies chat.
She admitted to it all! In the same song she frames criticism of that as being "toxic."
It’s even worse than that cause at several points she reinforces they’re real by saying she made mistakes and their things in the past etc.
As a person who feels like a weirdo described by radio head I can speak on behalf of us that we don't accept Colleen and isn't a "manifestation of the song"
"You know when something is too cringe and you can't handle watching it alone" this is exactly why I looked for this video 😭
I think the thing that pisses me off the most about her 'apology' is every time she started owning up to her actions, she was like 'oh I guess you don't care' youre a disgusting human being Colleen
literally !! i was thinking the same thing
like she gets into the actual apology and then is like HAH frick you ?! you thought i actually was going to own up to what i did ??? NICE TRY !!!
Way to apologize, Colleen. People *love* the condescension in apology videos like that. I mean, I guess you could look at it one way and say she was right all along that nobody would care, but it's kind of a self-fulfilling prophecy isn't it? Don't actually apologize, just say nobody will forgive you anyway and.. no shit.. nobody will, because that's coming across as douchey.
Not to mention she has crazy eyes. You can tell by just looking at her eyes she feels no responsibility for what she did.
Guys, she made an apology video for all of this stuff THREE YEARS AGO. Shes making rude "the internet doesn't care if you apologize" comments because that's literally what happened.
She DID apologize. She spoke with one of the minor's parents to make amends, she addressed it and took full accountability.
.... and the internet didn't give a shit, and threw it back in her face again
@@jacobcrowder2600wait what, is it true?
“the only thing i groomed were my 2 persian cats.” as a grooming victim, i wish that line never existed
:)... Atleast I'm not alone😢 ❤ sending hugs
❤ I'm so sorry that happened to you. I hope you're doing better now.
From one victim to another, I hope you’re doing okay now. Stay strong 💜
She shoved her cat into her pants sooooo
I was disgusted hearing that. It’s not funny. That’s Shane Dawson behavior.
6:47 "they never I couldn't sing what I wanted to say"
but then she spends most of the song not singing. talking over a ukulele is still talking.
I’m glad you pointed out her face being weird and different shade than her body, I also noticed it and couldn’t tell if it was makeup, filter or some other thing. It makes her look really unnatural and kinda creepy, which fits this whole mockery of an apology.
I've never really cared about apology videos but I legitimately cannot stop watching reviews of this applogy- I'm just shocked this is real 💀
Same 😭 this is my 4th video
@@BlairBoggletrotsame :')
It's like not being able to look away from a car crash
This is truly a historic moment
Same here, too. I'm just flabbergasted. Bamboozled. Smackledorfed, even.
Best thing about 'em is getting the lowlights, w/o giving that creep our click$.
"It doesn't make them a terrible human. It just makes them.... human."
she's literally pulling the 'i'm only human, after all' meme in real life lmaoooo
dOnT puT the BLAME on MeEeEe-
Unless you send explicit stuff to kids then you are a terrible human.
Which she did
So yes Colleen you’re a creepy terrible human 💀
Pack it up boys, she got us
Yea hormones are human, and so is self control. Funnily enough when I told that to a cheater, they couldn't comprehend keeping it in their pants.
Cue "Human" by the Human League
It’s so hard and annoying to argue with people who ignore facts.
I’ve had toxic ‘friends’ like this and they always play themselves as the victim.
I'm so glad you called out the filter, I wondered why she looked so off
That apology video just wouldn't END. Every time I thought she was done she just. kept. going.
It had to be ten minutes long to get that sweet monetization 🤑
Gurl what apology
I can't see it anywhere
NO SAME SHE WOULD STOP PLAYING AND ID BE LIKE “is she gonna get serious now” AND SHE STARTED AGAIN I WAS IN ABSOLUTE AWE
It's to monetize her own lies
i was waiting in anticipation for her to put the damn thing down but NO IT GOES ON FOR THE ENTIRE 10 MINUTES
What's insane to me is the absolute 0 amount of self awareness. This grown woman, wrote lyrics, created a beat, practiced the song, memorized the lyrics, probably did multiple takes at the video. And throughout all of that not once did the thought "maybe I'm doing too much not apologizing" "maybe no one is gonna take me seriously saying I'm not a groomer". And absolutely thought what she was doing was fine the whole time.
I wonder how many takes of this she did
Exactly and the whole part about her seeing the comments saying that she's gaslighting just proves she either is stupid enough to know its gaslighting and still do it or that she doesn't even know wtf the word even means..It's gross. She somehow lacked any thought into this and clearly her weird and inappropriate actions. She really thinks that this response isn't VERY obviously manipulative and gaslighting? she's in her 30s and I'm 23 and somehow more mature than her and know what manipulative and gaslighting words are and NOT TO DO IT. Her saying "Fuck me right?" is just " so I'm the bad guy right?" tactic. Having gone through being manipulated and gaslit, this whole video especially in song boils my blood. she's much older than me, and still uses toxic tactics to get her way.
@@blaze556922 If you don't see something wrong with those screenshots . . . uh, get help.
@blaze556922 there's a pic from one of her live shows where she had a kid put his hand down the front of her pants. she's asked a kid to send pics of his butt, she's asked kids their favorite sex position, she sent a kid her lingerie, and she's discussed sex and such with children on multiple occasions. if you see nothing wrong with this, seek help
Plus she JUST left the group chat like four days ago.
10:12 the "what" 😭
Imagine how long and how hard she rehearsed to perfectly ruin her life in a single take
I’d like to very obviously point out that this was not an apology, nor was it meant to be 😥 This is literally her saying “I’m not sorry and I never will be”
So it's not the worst apology video!
@@SandwichGlitch Just the worst video!
IMO it was more like "Yeah that was bad and I'm sorry but YOURE MAKING ME FEEL BAD about it, I hope you're happy now!"
@@annavictrixIts literally just her trying to manipulate her fans into thinking they’re the ones who did something wrong and she’s the victim. 🤮
She can say F you if she wants. It's still a free country as of now. It's fun to lean into the hate. Watch all the wind up dolls get riled up! It's so predictable it's almost boring other than the funny squawking they all make. They're so easy to manipulate, the squawkers.
This is the most theater kid apology on earth. Also, she's literally a mom. Imagine if her kid was groomed in the same way by another TH-camr, she'd be pissed
she’s a mother?! i feel bad for her kids
She’s a mom?
Unfortunately being a parent doesn't automatically mean they wouldn't also do/tolerate terrible things to their own children 😔 so personally it's sth I stopped saying
that's an insult to theatre kids
she probably really wouldnt be. this idea that abusers are kinder to the kids they have the MOST legal control over because "theyre parents" always baffled me. she's probably just as creepy with them.
„I did inappropriate things, because I was a loser“ how did she think that was an apology when it is the exact thing she should apologise for
The most ironic thing about life is that the “feeling like shit” part always comes too late and the damage has already been done. And after this video, even if she did make another one and sincerely apologized, nobody would take her seriously.
Many years spent doing nothing but serving and helping other people for free and giving every penny she has to her victims are needed at this point to take her apology seriously.
I do worry that people are gonna meme this so much that it will only be remembered as a cringe fest and not actual grooming allegations.
why do you think she whipped out a ukulele for this
I wouldn’t be surprised if that was her intent, but I don’t know she could also just be really dumb. Either seem equally plausible to me.
@@AeiouaaaaaaaaaJudging from some of the things she's said to Adam when she was getting flack over a tweet, I suspect she really is so self-absorbed and self-conscious that she thought her "cute" little song would help.
yeah...the "🎶toxic gossip train🎶" is already earworming its way into an observational meme
@@EweOliveonly if you make it that way.

The part where she says “oh I didn’t realize all of you are perfect” is SO insane to me
Like yes colleen i don't talk to children in inappropriate ways so compared to you i'm pretty damn perfect 😭
@@hashtagmate EXACTLY LIKE 😭
@@binnieacheas a current minor (16) I would be very creeped out if Colleen asked me those things, especially after watching her Netflix show
I mean I've never sent a minor my underwear and livestreamed it nor DMed minors about their sex lives at age 30!!! Heck I don't even do the latter to 18 year olds as thats a high school student so yeah I am beyond perfect in this instance, thanks for noticing. Why isn't she charged with child endangerment?!
@@JacobDaDJ same here and if we at this age know it’s fucked up then there’s no way her grown ass didn’t know what she was doing
Funnily enough, her ex has previously said she'd claim any negative reaction to her behavior was "toxic" or "abuse."
I read from a source on reddit (who was confirmed to know both of them) that the ex was absolutely toxic and abusive, doesn't mean colleen is any better colleen is either on the same level or even worse (seeing as the ex has no grooming allegations) but just wanted to add the info
@@hashtagmate the ex was in contact in a fan when he was young but according to them more in like an “older brother way” (not that it makes it okay to talk to a minor but at least it was not in a sexual way to my knowledge). while i do think that they were both toxic to an extent, watching back on old videos of them together it is clear that colleen was the main abuser
@@hashtagmate Oh, yeah, it's worth adding; thank you. I believe he's admitted to inappropriate behavior with minor fans as well.
Well yeah, that's what narcissists do. They call you toxic and a narcissist for reacting.
That reminds me of a friend I used to have who would intentionally piss me off and then act upset when I got mad at them so they could keep a victim mentality over trivial bullshit
I feel like she looked at every TH-camr apology and was like how do i make it worse
the way she gets so close to apologizing but then burrows back into her own head reminds me of a fight I had with an ex-friend (college students) where he said "I already apologized to you" (this was all in text btw) but when I looked back at our messages, the closest thing I found was basically 'I have been stressed with school and work so if I've been negative that makes sense, but you should have brought it up to me better' (He literally confronted me in dms after I "sounded upset" ONE time for like 5 seconds, to which I explained clearly what was bothering me). Some people think that if you're "too" mad at them, they don't have to apologize to you. Colleen already decided how people were gonna react to her before she even did the thing people were supposed to react to. What somebody else did wrong is separate from what you did wrong.
1. Thanks for pointing out the filter. That’s such a silly way to try to make her look more soft and likable (in my opinion).
2. You figuring out and rewriting her little song is iconic, love that
I think she also trying to look younger to maybe down play she's a 36 year old adult!! The filter and the terrible bangs are not helping.
also i don't know if it's the filter but her eyes look so freaky for some reason

She literally was in these group chats right up until LAST WEEK. And she is 36! Talking to 13 year olds! It's insane.
As a 31 year old I just...can't imagine wanting to be in a chat with a bunch of preteens??? Like....girl....go straight to jail pls
@@amazingrainbowfruitI’m 19 and I feel super weird when preteens talk to me, like I can’t even imagine being in a groupchat with them
It’s incredibly nice to see someone else bringing up this point besides me.
The entire, “I changed years ago” wasn’t true….
@@rx500androideven at 17 I can't imagine being in a group chat with 13 year olds.
I'm 27, and I've been teaching undergraduates (typically age 18-22) 100-level classes for about 2 years now. I already see them as children, and can't imagine involving myself in a group chat with them, and those are legal adults. The very concept of talking to them like that makes my skin crawl, let alone a minor over a decade younger than me.
2:34 they fact that they knew and acknowledged that the parents of this kid (I’m assuming it was Adam) would not be okay with these grown adults sending their teenager lingerie and they just laughed it off and made a joke about it makes this even more disgusting, she knew exactly what she was doing, she knew it was wrong, she didn’t care
9:57 the ONLY impresive thing is that she can FUCKING PLAY AND SING like ive been a guitarist for about a year AND I STILL CANT 😭
Its the same like 4 chords over wnd over don't worryy
We lump it in as apology video, but it was more of a narcissistic pity party that nobody attended.
Unfortunely there are some commenters on her video cheering her on for this 🙄
You wouldn't apologize if you hadn't done anything wrong. What is it you think she's done? Wild claims require wild proof
@@fiaflora9585I don't see how anyone can like her but I don't think any of the things being said about her accurate
@@blaze556922 There's videos of her doing weird shit with kids. Example: At one of her live shows she made a 9 year old boy stick his hand down her pants. She, a GROWN women made a 9 year old CHILD stick his hand down her pants.
@@blaze556922Go look it up, there's screenshots, videos, etc. everywhere.. don't go around tryna defend someone accused of and proven, at least, talking sexually with minors, and inappropriate acts with minors on stage at her shows without doing your own research, you just look like an idiot.
Thank you for being the first person to finally talk about her using a blurring filter. It’s so apparent
I thought she looked eerie (aside from the wide, scary eyes) but couldn’t understand why. Now I get it.
I wonder if she used it to appear younger and "lighten" what she did (you know, 20 year old talking with teens may be seen as just a little bit less weird than 30 year old)
Seriously, she looked uncanny! I couldn't put my finger on it! She just looks like a mannequin!
I also noticed she looked SUPER weird and that her foundation didn't seem to match her neck
@@yann6109she definitely did.
She’s not sorry for her actions she’s sorry she got caught
8:36 yeah she left that group chat literally DAYS before posting this video
I was literally leaving an uke lesson when her apology blew up, and after watching the apology I called my teacher and jokingly/over dramatically told her I was quitting and my teacher just said "oh you saw the Colleen Ballenger apology"
I approve of your teacher
🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
I love playing the ukulele and I honestly feel personally wounded by Colleen's use of it for this toxic non-apology of a "song". I'ma have to play something else on my uke to cleanse my ears of "toxic gossip traaaaain".
THIS IS SO FUNNY PLS HELP
The "argument" of 'cause you're so perfect right? 🤪' is just really childish
Yep!
Like, no I’m not perfect but I’ve never been inappropriate with children?? I never asked a 13/14 year old if they were a virgin??? If the bare minimum is perfect then god I’m a saint rn
@@moosenman Exactly. I'm not perfect, but I don't groom children, Colleen.
"you jaywalked once, so you can't complain, we're literally the same"
@@moosenmanlmaooo well said
why did at 10:20 ish it seem like it was an offical breakdown of atwtmv and analysing lyrics
I’m SO GLAD someone else thought her face looked weird. I had no idea to think it was a filter.
The "I was inappropriate with minors because I was a loser who wanted to be friends" thing kind of reminds me of "I was inappropriate with minors because I was desperate "
It is interesting that she thinks that's a good defense, what's really interesting is that she(and James) unknowingly used a lot of the rhetoric that bredators use to defend their actions. Almost all the guys on how to catch a bredator say "I just wanted to talk, I don't have friends, blah blah blah". Or guys in prison will say "she lied about her age, I didn't know how old she was". They don't even realize how obvious they made it that they are part of that group.
so basically... a discord mod?
james charles??
On the other hand, James Charles was quite young himself, which makes Colleen look even worse. 😅
There was a coach in my hometown who got arrested for having “relations” with a 7th grader and his excuse was “I only texted her when I was drunk.”
Jesus this “apology” is the most passive-aggressive abusive crap. Like this is textbook blame-shifting and guilt-tripping.
i kinda think she doesn't know what she did
This right here.
@@asuka_the_void_witch it feels like that one episode of Gumball where Gumball and Darwin were apologizing without knowing what they did
The “toxic gossip train” and the ukulele; made me want to get hit by an actual train.
Calling it an apology is offensive to even the worst and most half-arsed youtuber apologies. She's very clearly and smugly not even pretending to be sorry
She's clearly not sorry. She's made a joke of it on stage. But I think the craziest part is that she genuinely doesn't see what she did as wrong. There isn't a bone in her body that realizes her actions had an impact on these CHILDREN.
Impact over intention. Every time.
The little British spin with calling her arse made this better somehow
I don't think she even called it that, she just said hi and that she's sharing her thoughts. She knows she's not apologizing, but that makes it even worse tbh
@@supersmashseandx1991 not British, just not American 😊
@@casssowary oh my bad, I just know that as a British ism
It's crazy, she gets called out for grooming and then goes on camera and fingers A-minor
STOPPPPPPP
NOOOOO OH MY GOD

*golf clap*
Oh no no no no no no
Thank you for mentioning the filter. I had no idea why something felt so off with her face and it was really validating.
Growing up in the UK, if you said 'grooming' and 'musical instruments' to me, I'd probably think of Rolf Harris. Not the sort of person Miranda would want to be reminding people of. She's lost the plot entirely.
Even if none of the other accusations were true, just the “trying to be besties” thing is insane by itself; there’s no reason a 30 year old needs “besties” that are literal children
This what I’m stuck on - why do you not have besties your own age?? Im a digital artist and get itchy if anyone under 24yo messages me ;; why would you SEEK THEM OUT
i am IN NO WAY defending colleen here but i don't think it's bad to have adult friends online as a teen? i did, and it helped having friends who were older and had perspective on the world i didn't have. did colleen cross a LOT of boundaries?? absolutely. but i don't think the internet should be divided into "kids internet" and "adults internet." adults and kids can be friends and i don't think there's anything inherently wrong or gross about that
is colleen gross yes was her behaviour gross yes. is it weird to have ONLY kids for friends? yes. but i think this "anyone who talks to a child online is a groomer" is unhelpful.
i'm 31 now, only a little younger than colleen, and i don't have any friends who are minors, but i remember fondly the friends i had online when i was in my teens who were in their 30s.
@@jampharosI played a game online when I was 16. I had no clue until probs a year in that most of the ppl on there were legit 11-12. I was a very innocent person in high school (wasn’t making innuendos on there), but I still panicked and then turned into more of a protective big sister role for them. They were no longer on par with me in terms of mental maturity and I felt the need to protect and educate them on online safety
The only time I can fathom being friends with a child is if it’s a family member. I’m 27 and my youngest cousin is 13. We share interests in games and anime and are super tight because of it (we are the only people on the side who are into them). I fill the role of cool anime/gamer cousin”, and I get to be supportive of her interests and share mine from when I was her age. It’s so much fun for us
That being said, I absolutely will draw a line if something is too far. One of her fave anime’s is defffffff not for kids, and I let her mom know. And I showed her an anime I watched when I was 14 that I loved in hopes of giving her something with more age appropriate queer content
@@jampharos no I agree with you, I don’t mean to make it a blanket statement; I do think it’s totally fine and even good for young ppl to have friends of all ages, and there’s lots to learn from relationships with older ppl. I’m in my 30s as well and I really enjoy mentoring teenagers in appropriate settings, and when I was young I was an only child living in a fairly isolated area so I had friendships online and in person with some older ppl simply because i didn’t have much access to ppl my age; and these relationships were both healthy and meaningful. The issue here is of course the boundaries, my focus is more on the fact that she shouldn’t be looking for “besties” among that age group.
Gabi adding vocals made it so much a banger omg her voice is so nice :3
I love when people add their own singing in with her like that its always so good
Knowing that 12 year old me would have believed Colleen and listened to this song on repeat is quite scary cause you know that this is what she is trying to do
Oh definitely I didn't even think about that because even though I hate to say it the vocals and ukulele playing was actually pretty good
@@-HopeIsNeat-eh, she used like two chords. but yeah its definitely bait for kids to support her.
she didn’t take accountability, she was justifying her actions.
🎶 I did ✨ nOtHiNg wROnG ✨ 🎵
She couldn't even do that right
she made a video 3 years ago where she literally takes accountability
She has kids too. What would she tell them when they're older and they hear about this? That it was all lies?
The whole "miranda sings is pg-13" comes from people saying that she acted inappropriately with fan's bodies in live shows. This is a bad argument because its not okay to treat 13+ minors in that way either. Also theres video proof :/
Abusers are so good at making themselves the victim in any situation.

"They said I shouldn't say anything, but they didnt say anything about singing."
These are the kinds of loopholes that abusers/manipulators use to prove they didn't do anything *actually* that wrong.
For real. And they use the "they said I shouldn't say anything" thing like a "ohhhh they're trying to silence me and my objectively correct opinion" to make themselves look like the world is against them. I'm glad more people are being able to recognize it for what it is because its SO obvious when it happens 😭its so gross but also annoying like girl...be real right now
Yup! She's so transparent
You wouldn't apologize if you hadn't done anything wrong. I've yet to see any evidence that she has committed any crimes. She's unlikable, can't sing, and shouldn't have a following to begin with but that's not my business or concern. People need to stop throwing the term groomer around lightly
@@blaze556922 Then you haven't looked.
@@blaze556922my guy, there’s literal screenshots in the video you’re currently watching. Even without that proof, Colleen admitted to talking to underage fans in her own video. Close shut case. pack it up I’ve seen all I need to see.
You know she was laying in bed at night daydreaming/fantasizing about this non-apology, thought of “toxic gossip train” and thought “oh yeah that’s good.”
This is what happens when you can’t control ur emotions. You end up making a stupid “apology” video
like seriously, she thought about it, wrote it, filmed it, edited it, and posted it and after all that she never once thought it wasn't a good idea
now think of everything else she thought of, and how "toxic gossip train" was the best one. Think of how many other terrible ones she must've came up with before that
OMG I LOVEE THIS SONG
on mute 😌🤌🤌🤌🤌
Bro she has kids and she was legit groomig others shes disgusting
I’m so worried that there’s gonna be a problem in the future with her thinking her actions with her fans were okay and repeating them with her own kids
3:43 Your reaction broke my funny bone and i DONT KNOW WHY! 😂
Can we just appreciate Gabi's beautiful singing real quick.
she made the song so much better. her voice is so nice
Gabi singing appreciation moment.
She actually made the song enjoyable ngl
Gabi carried the song
She should make music
Shes literally 36. Old enough to be some of those kids parent. Shes disgusting and the apology definitely matches. Literally an iconic apology in the worst way. What a way to gain infamy.
The worst thing is, she has a kid
@@SteamHyenazshe has 3 kids and 2 cats which are apparently "the only things she's groomed"
Honestly , if she never did it she wouldn’t be the person she is today, Im not saying it right but try being a 30 yr old modern women where little kids are who love you, at the time how else was she supposed to talk to her audience
@@pizzangels1yeah I still don't see anything inappropriate between her and her fans. They threw up some screenshots that are supposed to be damning but none of them were. Nothing is serious about any of this except calling her a groomer. Serious allegations require serious evidence. It has yet to be provided
@@blaze556922 even if you don't think what she did was criminal, it still isn't right to talk sexually with minors. Even if it's just a "joke", it's an overstepping of boundaries that you as an adult are responsible to set. If she were a teacher and she was in a group chat with her students and talked that way, she would've been fired. Just because she's famous doesn't excuse gross behavior. There's also a power dynamic there. She was, and is, a grown woman. Those were children. She took advantage of children, using them for free labor. Along with imo, being a generally bad person. She conned these kids into thinking they were "friends" and what she was doing and saying was okay, then going and talking shit about these, again, kids, to her adult friends. You can think she did nothing, or minimal things wrong or not believe the allegations. But in my eyes, if that many people say the same things, have screen shots, voice messages, etc, and then your apology is a shitty, self indulgent "song", it's hard to believe you're innocent and don't know what you did was wrong. She didn't say anything past "these kids lied about me" while providing no evidence past hurt feelings. Sorry a grown woman got her feelings hurt because she groomed kids. Allegedly. In my opinion.
14:20 Actually it is one of the issues. She says she is PG-13 "and has always been that way" but there's a lot of children in her audience (including the boys who she picked to grab cheeseballs out of her pants), a lot of pictures with children in her books and etc, while making inappropriate jokes about daddy's saddle, her uncle, being a porn, spreading teenager's legs on stage for a "fart joke", and other sexual innuendos.
11:10 That Boxxy vibe 🤣
