Adam I’d like to talk to you about what it’s like to take legal action against a childhood abuser as I’m currently doing, the benefits vs risks and what it does emotionally/ the toll it takes. You absolutely have grounds to take civil legal action and there’s possibly even criminal legal exposure but let me tell you it is a lot. It reopens old wounds and shows you just how affected you have been, more so than you even realised. But it’s also nice to feel like you’re getting some acknowledgment and justice.
Ps. My story staying consistent over the 17 years is why I’m able to go after my abuser civilly. Every time you say that it really resonates with me. I know you are telling the truth and I can see it’s affected you. Just know you are coping so well. Your strength and resilience is inspiring.
Absolutely. While making and raising a human is very hard, being a mom is not unique. I'm pretty sure most people have children. I can't figure out the mental gymnastics that goes on that makes the specific "Mothers" think they're above other people. Also, "Boy Moms" show some extreme behavior. I have a little boy, but I'm not one of those "Boy Moms" who threaten their 2-year-old son's potential future wife. That's weird to me.
I can't look at that sentence the same way ever again since Serena Williams tried to use it in the middle of the match because she was losing the game. The word lost it's meaning for me because of people like that. Everytime i hear it i cringe so hard and remember that moment.
but shes TOTALLY not a groomer! Groomers dont rely on convincing their victims they want things because they dont know any better! Silly little internet haters! /s
I just want to bring attention to Adam’s parents. Particularly, Adam’s mom. Mama McIntyre is the unwavering hero for paying such close attention to Adam’s interactions online and for fostering the kind of relationship that she could pick up on what was really going on when Colleen planned to ditch Adam and literally waited on the street to look out for him. Then texting Colleen directly to back up her son! Legend. 👏🏻 👏🏻 👏🏻 Thank you, Mama McIntyre.
No his parents are part of the problem. Not only not monitoring what he does online, not looking into Colleen and taking him to meet her in London and just leaves him at a restaurant with her where he’s abandoned. His mom is an idiot and more to blame than Colleen
@@trint3089 nobody left him 🤦🏽♀️ his mom *let him think that* so he could feel grown, but she was waiting for him- literally part of OP also, why be so negative (especially towards strangers) when WE CAN SEE (in the end) Adam is doing better than just alright😅
Colleen: "The child wanted it" That's literally what men have said on Dateline's To Catch a Predator after Chris Hansen busts them and reads the nasty stuff in their chat logs. And he'd always respond with, " *But that doesn't make it right. You're an adult and you should know this!* "
Adam- you are not ugly in your video. You looked upset and that is OK. She put you through the ringer. Be kind to that boy in that video. He turns out pretty OK.
She dismissively calls it "ugly underwear" to make it less creepy. Screams guilty 😂 Ma'am that was a string bikini and a see through bra. Nasty. And I will never get over James Charles saying that you BEGGED for YEARS 😂 As if you had no childhood; all your time was spent spamming Colleen over some lingerie
If Colleen comes back with a pregnancy announcement after the grooming allegations to try to "repair her image," that is ukulele level insanity. "I'm pregnant. You can't hate on me for being creepy with kids." Say what, now?
Not only that, she went on and on and on about how difficult her pregnancies are (probably due to her unhealthy eating habits) and doing that right now would actually be endangering the child. Not that she would give a crap.
I WANT to say I doubt it because she quite literally has hated her pregnancies…. Although she doesn’t eat properly I don’t think it affects her symptoms? Idfk but IF she got pregnant to get people to forget about this ish….. OOH I WILL SCREAM!!!!!!!!!!!!
Its actually ironic to hear her say "it wasnt a secrect, creepy, thing. It was a silly mistake." Her whole demeanor is built around this. Evil is built around this. It has to be in your face.
One part of grooming that people don't talk about is the method that makes everyone seem complict. You think everyone already knows and that it isn't a secret. And if everyone is already acting normal and moving on, you have no place to talk about what happened to you. She's hitting that button real hard. "Old news. No one complained. Wasn't a secret.' Happened to me. Wasn't until I was an adult that I found out that no one knew how badly I was treated. They only saw the surface damage.
I don't want to speculate about any legal actions you may be involved with, rightly so. As an observer, a trauma survivor, and a mother, all I keep looking for is for her to acknowledge that she and her team caused people harm. Simple. She can go on about her intentions all day long, but if I'm driving down the road, drop my coffee in my lap, and hit somebody, I'm not off the hook because I didn't mean to. Her failure to consider the humanity of the people she hurt *is* the indictment of her character.
this. but so many abusers either cant or wont dont that because acknowledging they messed up breaks the glass wall of delusion. Intentions dont matter at ALL the second you hurt someone this badly. The fact that her victims have had worlds more grace dealing with the harassment and coping than Colleen has had about ANYTHING...
Yeah, it's disturbing to me that Colleen seems to wholeheartedly believe her intentions exonerate her fully and it just doesn't work that way. Everything isn't okay because you say "I didn't mean to". Plenty of tragedies happened by accident, it doesn't undo the harm. When that mindset is applied to parenthood? That gets dangerous and I hope she doesn't bring that sort of ideology into how she raises her kids because yikes.
Beautifully said. So many people need to understand that your actions aren’t excused just because of your intentions. At the end of the day your actions affect people and have impact, not intentions.
@@SheldonMoonsmom2019 I'm too old and too ugly to deal with someone's ignorance especially as they resort to swearing to make their point. Just shut up and drive.
Re: the lingerie Adam brings up a great point that what she sent him was not “ugly,” comfy chones that she bought as a gag. I think she bought them on purpose because she liked them and possibly wanted to wear them in private with her husband. I think she forgot they were in that order. And I think her weirdo bestie shamed her on live about them, immediately calling them ugly, shading her sexual life, and *wearing them*, so she went along like this purchase was just a big joke because she and Kory are emotionally stunted, sexually repressed middle schoolers in middle-aged bodies. Her reaction and Kory’s as they open the packages has always struck me as off somehow, and the whole “these are so trashy that I literally paid to have them sent to my house” has never made sense to me. There’s waaaay more audacious underwear out there if she was looking for a gag. That stuff was just so vanilla, basic, and *in her size* that I don’t think they were a part of a giveaway bit until Kory woke up her shame.
As someone who watched colleen a few times and followed her pregnacy with her twins, she does NOT want another kid. She has stated that it was too much on her body, and didnt mean to falll pregnant with the twins. If she does come back with a pregnancy announcement, it would seem so intentional.
Idc if she pregnant or not, being pregnant doesn’t give you a pass to turn a blind eye to fucked up and ILLEGAL things that you did during the time that you weren’t pregnant. So she can try to come back with a prego announcement, but that won’t stop me from reminding her that she needs to be held accountable for what she did to MINORS
I couldn't help but laugh when she brought up the discovery phase... because that would be Colleen's worst nightmare. Her sleep paralysis demon is like "What are they gonna discover, Colleen??? That you're a groomer, not just a loser???"
I think every one of these videos and posts have been saved as well and every single person, commenting and hosting the shows will be held accountable as well. Parents will be investigated. Can’t see any winners coming out of this but you guys are asking for it sure doesn’t seem like a smart move.
@@Sun_and_rain_lmao sorry she IS a groomer, with plenty of evidence against her. She had a whole group chat with children. She sent lingerie to a minor. If you're a parent or guardian & you can dismiss her behaviour simply because she's "goofy" you're absolutely disgusting & you enable this kind of grooming behaviour. Do better.
@@Sun_and_rain_parents will be investigated? There’s no way they can investigate all the parents of all the kids that ever been to a Miranda Sings live show. Plus, the parents didn’t create the show and were in on it beforehand like Colleen and her team.
The grotesque part of the 'fart joke' is that it could easily have been interpreted as a 'queef joke' - especially with the leg spreading element - which just makes it ten times worse than it already was.
What still gets me is that it wasn’t like she was like “hey these are funny, here…have them haha”. She legit asked you personally if you wanted them, told you to take pictures wearing them, got your address and information, boxed them up and sent overseas. That wasn’t a casual joke. There was quite a bit of effort put into it. During which she never once stopped to think to herself “hey maybe this is extremely inappropriate and I shouldn’t be sending lingerie to a minor, even on the off chance that it could be misconstrued”. There was clear intent behind the entire thing. As the adult, “part of my brain was missing at the time” isn’t really a defense. If she even had an ounce of remorse about doing it she wouldn’t be diminishing her actions to save face. She’s only sorry that it’s affecting her.
I found you through EDB and Runkle. I cry watching these videos. You were a kid. You are not responsible for their bad behavior. They should have known better. It is so obvious the way she is trying to flip everything, displace blame, with the endgame of silencing you and those she harmed. I wish you peace Adam. I hope that you know, or will come to know, from the core of your being, you hold no blame and this ain’t your shit!
@AdamMcIntyre - I have wanted to comment on so many of your vids - but have refrained. I just want to tell you I AM SO SICK OF HER USING THE WORD MISTAKE. She wasn’t making mistakes - she was making DECISIONS. That to me is the ULTIMATE SIGN that she is not at the point of accountability. People who groom or exploit minors don’t “make mistakes”. NO, absolutely not. That is SO MINIMIZING.
@@notefish328 If you've been traumatized by someone to the extent Adam has been, it's quite understandable to be more than a little obsessed with getting justice and bringing your abuser consequences.
@@miipmiipmiip can confirm. as a CSA victim myself i still struggle to think about what happened and 10+ years after the abysmal torture i went through, even getting my abuser to muster a simple "sorry" would never be enough. its life changing in the worst way possible. trauma is permanent.
@@notefish328if he is obsessive, he has every damn right to be, and the stuff that b!+€h needs to keep being talked about, because it's high time shit stops being swept under the rug
Colleen getting a new kid is like shane and ryland, or onion, getting a new kid. Just because she can grow her own victims doesn’t make it any less dangerous. Maybe when predators grow their own kids after amassing dozens of underage victims, something could be done about that
I mean she shouldn’t have shown Kodee when she talked about minors harmed by Colleen. Because Kodee was her goddamn age the entire time and was never a victim.
something really interesting that i just noticed... colleen threw adam away because of the tweet scandal.. but also adam was 17 meaning he was about to not be a minor anymore. it's possible that she lost interest in adam because he was about to no longer be a minor.
15:47 so, even if you DID put it on and think it was funny you were 13. She was 30. If grown people act like things are funny teens and younger people who are influenced by that person will also think it’s funny. Grooming is convincing others what you’re doing isn’t wrong. If you put it on either to be funny or to get them to stfu it’s because you were groomed and still 100% her fault.
7:23 folks who are going through the worst shouldn't be expected to look Instagram ready. Adam your appearance and voice are genuine. That's what I take from it all. You didn't get all dolled up, you didn't plan for your image to be the moral of the story. That speaks volumes.
I don't blame you for wanting to look your best in your "Stop Lying" video, but I think the fact that you look obviously distraught makes the video feel very honest, unforced, and genuine. I'm so sorry that Colleen's mind fuckery has made it so hard for you to feel good in your skin and appreciate how handsome you are. All the love to you and your family.
CPS really needs to investigate. Even if there’s no « physical » abuse happening there’s no way these kids aren’t seeing,hearing or being in situations that are inappropriate. The « lessons » they are learning at that house, by even just watching her videos, are absolutely horrifying. I’m scared in the future be will see them start to sexualizing themselves to get attention, not understand consent, not understand apologizing and taking accountability, and horrifying normalization of sexual undertones, even flat out sexual abuse, with family members. The fact her brother (and imo Colleen as well but it’s not as obvious) has, with receipts, been shown to be grooming children with the expectation of future sexual contact. There’s so many worrying lessons « passed as jokes » children who watch her videos learn, the possibility her children are learning similar, and potentially « worse », lessons not under the guise of « humor » but as reality is quite high.
Not to downplay anything of the horrible shit Colleen has done, but I have a big suspicion that she must have been groomed in some way when she was younger, to believe this kind of behaviour she’s subjecting kids to, is okay. I dont know. its so deranged. I’ve never seen anyone not realise you cant do this. She has literally conditioned kids to dress “slutty” to get her attention on stage, and think degrading them is okay and funny. Its so sickening and how she’s not realising thats extremely wrong, unless she’s been conditioned to it herself at some point. I dont know.
Oh i definitely agree. I don’t think it’s downplaying to speculate something like this, it’s absolutely deranged to think any of this behavior is okay and it must take some unique mental issues in order to think that. Since she was homeschooled it very well could’ve been a tutor or something like that.
I think it’s a combination of this and theater culture-theater culture has such an egregious lack of boundaries, taught to you at a VERY young age. Changing in front of each other, Rocky Horror Picture Show gags, inappropriate adults who are entirely too involved in your life…the combination of that and grooming can’t be good. The cringey underwear thing is such a theater gag, but those were always between people of similar ages. She just doesn’t get it and doesn’t care.
It could also be she's always pushed people's boundaries and nobody ever told her no or her family always defended her pushing boundaries. I've seen this before where someone wasn't groomed or abused as a child but they would also push boundaries or be inappropriate and their family always defended them.
There are PLENTY of people who abuse children that have not experienced any sort of trauma in their childhoods similar to what they perpetrate, and also vice versa, people like myself who suffered abuse well into adulthood and do everything in their power to end the cycle. As someone who has suffered literally every single kind of abuse possible, I find the concept of attributing harm in childhood to later committing more egregious harm to be an extremely dangerous stereotype that further perpetuates fear and disbelief in s* abuse survivors. I am not saying this to demonize you or tell you that you are a bad person for saying this or thinking that to be true, I just want to express how deeply hurtful it is as someone who has survived similar experiences to constantly see people attempting to relate abuse to something rational. Abuse is often not rational, it is often not based in anything other than ego and rage and the desire for power over others. I hope you can read what I said and take it into account and realize I am only trying to spread awareness.
In just 2 mins Adam went from a squeaky little voice all excited about seeing Disney ears to I am stressed out before watching not knowing if I will be dragged into the legal part... BUT I CAN TAKE IT !!!!!
The moment I saw this on my YT page I clicked it. This woman seems very good at this just, and just as Adam says, very intelligent. Honestly, I feel blessed that I was not aware of Colleen until this summer, but it still fills me with statisfaction seeing her dig her own grave deeper and deeper. I cannot however image the stress this causes you, Adam and her other victims. Please take care of yourself.
Adam just want to say I hope you are taking some time for you and not over exhausting yourself. I can only imagine what’s been going on behind the scenes for you and for many others. Sending you, and your family lots of love. Another great video💕
He just got back from two trips: California and Paris. He has the loving support of his family, friends and muckers. I think he has been handling all this rather maturely and very well.
When I came out about my assault, it didn’t go well. Police refused to help, and my assaulter got people to harass and bully me. They eventually got my boyfriends ex & (assaulters) sister to graffiti my name, calling me bad things. Nothing ever came of it, and now my assaulter has a child. It’s sickening.
I could see her doing a pregnancy announcement, and then announcing a pregnancy loss. Then she could get some hella empathy without having to actually get pregnant.
That's what I was thinking too. The fact that this fits her so well though... like totally seems like something she would do. I can't believe I used to like her.
Hot take. She created Miranda because she was told her whole life she couldn’t sign so she made a character that couldn’t sing in order to make herself feel better
Objectively speaking she has a good voice. I think she incorporated parts of her garbage personality in to the character to try and get away with being a mean girl.
@@kartgalshe is fine as a singer. She can hold a tune. She would be fine in community theater. Her biggest problem is she lacks creativity and basically just does every theater trope on earth when she’s performing.
everyone saying she can sing, theres a video out there of her performance in waitress thats literally cringe inducing. theres a good video from a vocal instructor on that video called can colleen even sing?
That fart joke was and is so disturbing because even as an adult that shit would be humiliating & embarrassing, the joke was entirely at her expense and not in her favour.
Watched this in the stream, and I see why people wanted Adam to watch these. Legal Bytes really did a good job of breaking things down from a legal perspective in a bit more detail than others, it seems. Part 2 where she speaks about hiring fans/minors is even better. And, as usual, it is amazing to have people like this in Adam and the other victims' corner.
I still think its so funny that no one knew who Colleen Ballinger was on the Nicoldeon Orange Carpet so she had to change and Mean Mug as Miranda Sings to get people to notice her.
How is it even deniable of what she had done. The evidence is there and you have it. I don’t know how people can pretend like she is right. You put all the evidence on the table and nobody listened. That is so messed up. I’m so sorry that this happened people are awful :(
That's what happens when you're brainwashed/loyal to someone you don't even know on a personal level. When they don't want to believe it they will choose willful ignorance over admitting "I supported the wrong person." However, some of these supporters are kids. So they're too young to understand and process the level of manipulation that goes into situations like this
8:47 Honestly, same. I found out about the situation after discovering your channel earlier this year, and after watching both your 2020 video and Colleen's response, I was baffled that anyone took her side. I mean, she showed your mom's message (which made her look insanely bad) and admitted to sending a minor lingerie (which isn't okay in any context) in the year 2020!!! How did anyone let that slide?!?!?!
I feel like Codi only came out about this because Colleen did something to piss her off or alienate her because Codi was an adult herself and did nothing but defend her while this shit was happening.
Seeing your old video and you reliving the moment just broke my heart because no minor shouldn't go through this or be hurt by people they once trusted. Keep your head high, Keep telling your story and stay strong. You got this. 💅
God listening to Colleen talk is to triggering, i honestly dk how you are doing it. You are so strong, wishing you a lot of healing and peace of mind 💙🙏
I certainly hope you and the other children can sue the h*** out of her. Shame on her. Cannot believe she was a 30’ish old woman/mother. Truly disgusting 🤢
I’ve never, in my life, have been sensitive to watching things// I don’t really need a trigger warning for anything. The “bae” bit makes me so uncomfortable, I have to fast forward. Even with the kids faces covered. I can’t stand the act or the response from the audience. ITS SCARY!
I am having a hard time understanding the parents in this situation. While I completely understand that their children would be embarrassed if their parent stood up against this during a show, the child’s safety is more important. What is more concerning? Your kids being embarrassed, or preventing them from being sexually assaulted. This is not to say that I am putting blame on the parents, as I think this is 100% Colleen’s fault. I just don’t understand why no parent stood up against this if they saw it at the show. Anyway, sending you love Adam♥️ you sharing your story is so important and I hope you never stop speaking up against this ♥️
Because it's not just about getting the kid away. Anyone who interrupts a show to confront the star is putting a massive target on their back for all the other people there to potentially hound them, and that's not something most people are comfortable with doing.
@@user-mv5zt8qd9l that is true but as a parent, your child’s safety should take priority over everything. As a parent, your main concern and focus is to make sure your kids are safe, no matter what the situation is. You could be held at gunpoint and your child’s safety would still take priority.
I think your criticism is fair. There’s only so much you can do around situations like this! It’s hard to say what the exact right way to react is. I remember once, I took my nephews to eat icecream, a homeless man walked up to us and pulled out a porn magazine… I didn’t know what to do! I didn’t want to make it a big scene, but I also didn’t want to draw attention to the magazine. I just ignored the homeless guy and told my nephews to eat their ice cream, I asked them if they liked their icecream…. People around us started looking around and getting concerned… the homeless guys eventually walked away. I don’t know if I did the right thing, but at the time, I just didn’t know what to do. I’m hoping they have no recollection of it, I think, it was the right call… but won’t be sure until I ask my nephews when they’re much older…. That’s like a decade from now. Idk, if I had a daughter, I wouldn’t of let her go on stage. I would’ve cursed out Colleen, or stopped her. Done anything to prevent the humiliation.
@@cannibalrainbowsI totally see your point. It’s hard to know what you would do in a situation you have never had to deal with. I just try to put myself in their shoes and think about how I might have reacted. It’s just super interesting to me because now in hindsight, we can all look back at these videos that have been online for years, and see how inappropriate it is, yet at the time, it wasn’t thought twice about. I would be interested in hearing stories from parents who may have left the show early due the nature of the content.
She posted an update a few days ago saying they're working really hard to get it out but want to make sure it's not rushed - I think it will drop soon 🤞🤞
That woman complained, cried, moaned and groaned everyday of her pregnancies. She hated every minute being pregnant. A big part of that imo was being extremely unhinged over her body changes and weight gain . That is painful for people with anorexia which I whole hardly believe she was and is.
Its crazy but colleen used to talk about everything in her vlogs. I remeber her saying something about Becky, the kid that reached down her pants, she even mentioned there was a female employee in haters back off who would "try to put her down, not support her ideas". Edit: Fyi i dont support colleen or excuse her behavior in any way.
im glad people are talking about the fact she only gets pregnant during the time her career is dying or whenever she gets into a scandal because she said many times she didn’t wanna get pregnant again after flynn. after her career was dying she decided to get pregnant again? not saying shes not allowed to, but its weird for someone who was 100% against getting pregnant again…ends up getting pregnant again (and then again because she miscarried which is devastating and i feel bad for her) if she ends up getting pregnant again i wont be surprised
IMO Colleen made that ukulele song because I think she thought it would make her fans feel bad for her and attack you again like last time, but it back fired on her! Listen closely to the words and imagine being a die hard 12 year old fan of hers, the words sound like an open invitation for attack on you if your think like a “kid” lol
Interesting that she always frames her behavior as "stupid," "dumb," and a "silly mistake." Never "inappropriate" or "wrong." I think she wants to keep doing it. If she says "I was inappropriate" on record then people can show her with her words that she knows it's wrong. So instead she plays dumb.
I'm just learning your story darling and binge watching your content, you've got a new supporter here, I'm sorry for what you went through! You've got a new subscriber here, it's sad it took so long for you to get some sort of peace with this but it's definitely a testimony for truth triumphing over evil and lies. Also, karma always catches up. Keep up the good work, I look forward to binging on your non she devil content 🤗
I don't understand how she got away with doing those shows for so long, because there had to have been some adults in those audiences, right? Why wouldn't any of them had a problem with what she was doing and spoken out about it?
👋👋 hi Adam, hope you had a lovely time in Paris and you get to Amsterdam soon 😊 Peace, love, prayers and healing light to you, all CB survivors and all reading this x
Yeah that’s one thing I’ve thought about it’s wild that people like Colleen and Shane are still allowed to post on TH-cam and yet J station had his channel Permabanned when all he did was obnoxious pranks and faked his girlfriend’s death.
I hate when women use "I'm pregnant" as a "Get out of jail" free card for something horrible they did. Like I hate it because they'll say "I'm changing for this new baby." Okay? What about the rest of your kids? Oh they don't matter? Not changing for them? Just for the new baby because he/she is going to "save" you from the sh*t you did? Honey. The internet never forgets. And it never will. Her being pregnant will not excuse her. And on top of that you also get people like "Guys she's pregnant let's not be so hard on her." Like b*tch she only got pregnant just so the hate will stop because once the hate stops people won't be talking about her anymore. Like yeah you don't want to stress the Mother out when she's pregnant, but at the same time...not to be mean, but people who are gross or have been gross to minors shouldn't get a break even if they become pregnant. Because you becoming pregnant should not excuse you. Or anyone. Period. You want to prey on kids? Well then you deserve the hate and backlash even when pregnant. And I don't like to say this about people, but when it comes to people who hurt kids, they don't at all deserve to be parents or have kids. Like I'm sorry, but people like that don't at all deserve to create a life. Like to me that's so f*cked up you'd hurt a child then have the audacity to go and get pregnant is so unbelieveably f*cked up you don't deserve that child or to be a parent at that point. Like that point I lost all damn respect of you as a human being and you more so shouldn't even be called human at that point because your just a straight up a monster. And another thing, if she does or is trying, that kid is going to grow up and learn the real reason to why they were created. And it's not because it was an "accident" or it was planned. It was to legit get out of the hate of being a legit creep to other kids. I would hate to be born from a p*do. Like that's going to RUIN her baby if she does get pregnant. I hope she doesn't...If she does her baby is going to hate their Mother and be disgusted of her and why they were really created.

Adam I’d like to talk to you about what it’s like to take legal action against a childhood abuser as I’m currently doing, the benefits vs risks and what it does emotionally/ the toll it takes. You absolutely have grounds to take civil legal action and there’s possibly even criminal legal exposure but let me tell you it is a lot. It reopens old wounds and shows you just how affected you have been, more so than you even realised. But it’s also nice to feel like you’re getting some acknowledgment and justice.

The "I'm a mother" community needs to address the way they intimidate and belittle people.
SO many of them genuinely only have children so they have an innocent, weak person reliant on them to give them power/narcissistic supply.
Absolutely. While making and raising a human is very hard, being a mom is not unique. I'm pretty sure most people have children. I can't figure out the mental gymnastics that goes on that makes the specific "Mothers" think they're above other people.
Also, "Boy Moms" show some extreme behavior. I have a little boy, but I'm not one of those "Boy Moms" who threaten their 2-year-old son's potential future wife. That's weird to me.
People won't pity mom's that make pity babies, that won't change the awful person they are, it will make them look worse.
I can't look at that sentence the same way ever again since Serena Williams tried to use it in the middle of the match because she was losing the game. The word lost it's meaning for me because of people like that. Everytime i hear it i cringe so hard and remember that moment.

Still wild to me that, in defense of sending sexy clothing to a child, her response was, "But the child _wanted_ it."

Exactly!!! What kind of defense is that? “He begged for it” really? How about you are a responsible grown up and don’t send it?

Colleen: "The child wanted it"
That's literally what men have said on Dateline's To Catch a Predator after Chris Hansen busts them and reads the nasty stuff in their chat logs. And he'd always respond with, " *But that doesn't make it right. You're an adult and you should know this!* "
Child might beg for 10 pounds of chocolate, doesn’t mean they should have it
If train travel dies in America, it’s because of Colleen’s “ALL ABOARD” triggering an entire generation of commuters 😂😂
I hate trains as it is. She just gives me more reason to hate them 😭
My husband is a train conductor (but freight) and I’ve been humming it to myself for weeks 🙄🙄 I hate it lol
Adam- you are not ugly in your video. You looked upset and that is OK. She put you through the ringer. Be kind to that boy in that video. He turns out pretty OK.
I think he turned out AMAZING!!!
She dismissively calls it "ugly underwear" to make it less creepy. Screams guilty 😂 Ma'am that was a string bikini and a see through bra. Nasty.
And I will never get over James Charles saying that you BEGGED for YEARS 😂 As if you had no childhood; all your time was spent spamming Colleen over some lingerie
literally 😭 it was a shein lingerie set and she was acting like they were granny panties
@@karleeeveee and even granny panties would be super inappropriate.
For real! Who the hell sends an innocent child their bra and panties?!
@@sarahwieland3243 a pedo!
The fact she lied about Adam asking for it shows damage control .
If Colleen comes back with a pregnancy announcement after the grooming allegations to try to "repair her image," that is ukulele level insanity.
"I'm pregnant. You can't hate on me for being creepy with kids." Say what, now?
Not only that, she went on and on and on about how difficult her pregnancies are (probably due to her unhealthy eating habits) and doing that right now would actually be endangering the child. Not that she would give a crap.
Ew, imagine she does that. That would be basically using an unborn fetus to get away with something. Imagine being that child.
I WANT to say I doubt it because she quite literally has hated her pregnancies…. Although she doesn’t eat properly I don’t think it affects her symptoms? Idfk but IF she got pregnant to get people to forget about this ish….. OOH I WILL SCREAM!!!!!!!!!!!!
Nah she's just getting a new one to be creepy to right from scratch. 💀
@@haleywhitten1947 yes. It would be an ugly way to start a life.
Its actually ironic to hear her say "it wasnt a secrect, creepy, thing. It was a silly mistake."
Her whole demeanor is built around this. Evil is built around this. It has to be in your face.
One part of grooming that people don't talk about is the method that makes everyone seem complict.
You think everyone already knows and that it isn't a secret.
And if everyone is already acting normal and moving on, you have no place to talk about what happened to you.
She's hitting that button real hard. "Old news. No one complained. Wasn't a secret.'
Happened to me. Wasn't until I was an adult that I found out that no one knew how badly I was treated.
They only saw the surface damage.
I don't want to speculate about any legal actions you may be involved with, rightly so. As an observer, a trauma survivor, and a mother, all I keep looking for is for her to acknowledge that she and her team caused people harm. Simple. She can go on about her intentions all day long, but if I'm driving down the road, drop my coffee in my lap, and hit somebody, I'm not off the hook because I didn't mean to. Her failure to consider the humanity of the people she hurt *is* the indictment of her character.
this. but so many abusers either cant or wont dont that because acknowledging they messed up breaks the glass wall of delusion. Intentions dont matter at ALL the second you hurt someone this badly. The fact that her victims have had worlds more grace dealing with the harassment and coping than Colleen has had about ANYTHING...
Yeah, it's disturbing to me that Colleen seems to wholeheartedly believe her intentions exonerate her fully and it just doesn't work that way. Everything isn't okay because you say "I didn't mean to". Plenty of tragedies happened by accident, it doesn't undo the harm. When that mindset is applied to parenthood? That gets dangerous and I hope she doesn't bring that sort of ideology into how she raises her kids because yikes.
Thissssss it shows her character so well…
100%, I completely agree.
Beautifully said. So many people need to understand that your actions aren’t excused just because of your intentions. At the end of the day your actions affect people and have impact, not intentions.

Re: the lingerie
Adam brings up a great point that what she sent him was not “ugly,” comfy chones that she bought as a gag. I think she bought them on purpose because she liked them and possibly wanted to wear them in private with her husband. I think she forgot they were in that order. And I think her weirdo bestie shamed her on live about them, immediately calling them ugly, shading her sexual life, and *wearing them*, so she went along like this purchase was just a big joke because she and Kory are emotionally stunted, sexually repressed middle schoolers in middle-aged bodies.
Her reaction and Kory’s as they open the packages has always struck me as off somehow, and the whole “these are so trashy that I literally paid to have them sent to my house” has never made sense to me. There’s waaaay more audacious underwear out there if she was looking for a gag. That stuff was just so vanilla, basic, and *in her size* that I don’t think they were a part of a giveaway bit until Kory woke up her shame.
completely COMPLETELY agree
Yes!
As someone who watched colleen a few times and followed her pregnacy with her twins, she does NOT want another kid. She has stated that it was too much on her body, and didnt mean to falll pregnant with the twins. If she does come back with a pregnancy announcement, it would seem so intentional.
This.
Idc if she pregnant or not, being pregnant doesn’t give you a pass to turn a blind eye to fucked up and ILLEGAL things that you did during the time that you weren’t pregnant. So she can try to come back with a prego announcement, but that won’t stop me from reminding her that she needs to be held accountable for what she did to MINORS
It also doesn't keep you out of prison. I'm not saying that prison is where this is leading her to, but there are pregnant women in prison.
@@lisadgingersnaps9843 in prison is where she damn sure belongs, imo!
Same!
Lmao and she did it right after Flynn. Friggin weirdo. She has a kid and then perpetuates the grooming onto Adam.
No you are wrong Colleen is innocent Colleen has done nothing wrong leave Colleen alone you are wrong.
I couldn't help but laugh when she brought up the discovery phase... because that would be Colleen's worst nightmare. Her sleep paralysis demon is like "What are they gonna discover, Colleen??? That you're a groomer, not just a loser???"
👏👏👏👏👏
Sorry, not a groomer.
I think every one of these videos and posts have been saved as well and every single person, commenting and hosting the shows will be held accountable as well. Parents will be investigated. Can’t see any winners coming out of this but you guys are asking for it sure doesn’t seem like a smart move.
@@Sun_and_rain_lmao sorry she IS a groomer, with plenty of evidence against her. She had a whole group chat with children. She sent lingerie to a minor. If you're a parent or guardian & you can dismiss her behaviour simply because she's "goofy" you're absolutely disgusting & you enable this kind of grooming behaviour. Do better.
@@Sun_and_rain_parents will be investigated? There’s no way they can investigate all the parents of all the kids that ever been to a Miranda Sings live show. Plus, the parents didn’t create the show and were in on it beforehand like Colleen and her team.
Why does everyone always call this situation a "controversy"? It is literally a CRIME. There is nothing controversial about it...
The grotesque part of the 'fart joke' is that it could easily have been interpreted as a 'queef joke' - especially with the leg spreading element - which just makes it ten times worse than it already was.
What still gets me is that it wasn’t like she was like “hey these are funny, here…have them haha”. She legit asked you personally if you wanted them, told you to take pictures wearing them, got your address and information, boxed them up and sent overseas. That wasn’t a casual joke. There was quite a bit of effort put into it. During which she never once stopped to think to herself “hey maybe this is extremely inappropriate and I shouldn’t be sending lingerie to a minor, even on the off chance that it could be misconstrued”. There was clear intent behind the entire thing. As the adult, “part of my brain was missing at the time” isn’t really a defense. If she even had an ounce of remorse about doing it she wouldn’t be diminishing her actions to save face. She’s only sorry that it’s affecting her.
The first time you drop that "don't forget we're dealing with international" like OH SHIT! Adam has something up his sleeveless sleeves! 😂
I found you through EDB and Runkle. I cry watching these videos. You were a kid. You are not responsible for their bad behavior. They should have known better. It is so obvious the way she is trying to flip everything, displace blame, with the endgame of silencing you and those she harmed. I wish you peace Adam. I hope that you know, or will come to know, from the core of your being, you hold no blame and this ain’t your shit!
@AdamMcIntyre - I have wanted to comment on so many of your vids - but have refrained. I just want to tell you I AM SO SICK OF HER USING THE WORD MISTAKE. She wasn’t making mistakes - she was making DECISIONS. That to me is the ULTIMATE SIGN that she is not at the point of accountability. People who groom or exploit minors don’t “make mistakes”. NO, absolutely not. That is SO MINIMIZING.
It's like people who cheat saying they made a mistake. No, you made a choice.
"Im not a groomer, im just a loser🥺" GUESS WHAT COLLEEN?!?!?!? YOU CAN BE BOTH!!!!😃
She’s selling herself short 😂
i have so much respect for you being able to continually speak out about and hold ur ground against c*lleen
Seems obsessive
@@notefish328 If you've been traumatized by someone to the extent Adam has been, it's quite understandable to be more than a little obsessed with getting justice and bringing your abuser consequences.
@@miipmiipmiip can confirm. as a CSA victim myself i still struggle to think about what happened and 10+ years after the abysmal torture i went through, even getting my abuser to muster a simple "sorry" would never be enough. its life changing in the worst way possible. trauma is permanent.
@@notefish328if he is obsessive, he has every damn right to be, and the stuff that b!+€h needs to keep being talked about, because it's high time shit stops being swept under the rug
did you just…censor colleen????
Colleen getting a new kid is like shane and ryland, or onion, getting a new kid. Just because she can grow her own victims doesn’t make it any less dangerous. Maybe when predators grow their own kids after amassing dozens of underage victims, something could be done about that
I mean she shouldn’t have shown Kodee when she talked about minors harmed by Colleen. Because Kodee was her goddamn age the entire time and was never a victim.
Good on Adam’s mom for saving hard evidence.
I noticed she deleted her “Apology” video…
It's still up
It’s still up
something really interesting that i just noticed... colleen threw adam away because of the tweet scandal.. but also adam was 17 meaning he was about to not be a minor anymore. it's possible that she lost interest in adam because he was about to no longer be a minor.
anybody else waitin for a "bye." video where colleen sings a song about going to prison 😃🤭🤔
Watching you grow into the adult that 13 yr old Adam needed has been the ultimate glow up! You should be so proud of yourself Adam ♥️
15:47 so, even if you DID put it on and think it was funny you were 13. She was 30. If grown people act like things are funny teens and younger people who are influenced by that person will also think it’s funny. Grooming is convincing others what you’re doing isn’t wrong. If you put it on either to be funny or to get them to stfu it’s because you were groomed and still 100% her fault.
THIS! Thank you!
Not an ad for “MeUndies” where a girl talks about receiving her undies in the mail RIGHT as you’re talking about Colleen sending you lingerie! Lmfao
Colleen’s legal mistakes: Colleen’s choices.
7:23 folks who are going through the worst shouldn't be expected to look Instagram ready. Adam your appearance and voice are genuine. That's what I take from it all. You didn't get all dolled up, you didn't plan for your image to be the moral of the story. That speaks volumes.
8:16
“Kody and some other people.”
😭😭😭 now we know who those other people are ahem*johnny*ahem
"S/He was asking for it" is the quintessential script for SA
I don't blame you for wanting to look your best in your "Stop Lying" video, but I think the fact that you look obviously distraught makes the video feel very honest, unforced, and genuine. I'm so sorry that Colleen's mind fuckery has made it so hard for you to feel good in your skin and appreciate how handsome you are. All the love to you and your family.
CPS really needs to investigate. Even if there’s no « physical » abuse happening there’s no way these kids aren’t seeing,hearing or being in situations that are inappropriate. The « lessons » they are learning at that house, by even just watching her videos, are absolutely horrifying. I’m scared in the future be will see them start to sexualizing themselves to get attention, not understand consent, not understand apologizing and taking accountability, and horrifying normalization of sexual undertones, even flat out sexual abuse, with family members. The fact her brother (and imo Colleen as well but it’s not as obvious) has, with receipts, been shown to be grooming children with the expectation of future sexual contact. There’s so many worrying lessons « passed as jokes » children who watch her videos learn, the possibility her children are learning similar, and potentially « worse », lessons not under the guise of « humor » but as reality is quite high.
Not to downplay anything of the horrible shit Colleen has done, but I have a big suspicion that she must have been groomed in some way when she was younger, to believe this kind of behaviour she’s subjecting kids to, is okay. I dont know. its so deranged. I’ve never seen anyone not realise you cant do this. She has literally conditioned kids to dress “slutty” to get her attention on stage, and think degrading them is okay and funny. Its so sickening and how she’s not realising thats extremely wrong, unless she’s been conditioned to it herself at some point. I dont know.
Oh i definitely agree. I don’t think it’s downplaying to speculate something like this, it’s absolutely deranged to think any of this behavior is okay and it must take some unique mental issues in order to think that. Since she was homeschooled it very well could’ve been a tutor or something like that.
I think it’s a combination of this and theater culture-theater culture has such an egregious lack of boundaries, taught to you at a VERY young age. Changing in front of each other, Rocky Horror Picture Show gags, inappropriate adults who are entirely too involved in your life…the combination of that and grooming can’t be good.
The cringey underwear thing is such a theater gag, but those were always between people of similar ages. She just doesn’t get it and doesn’t care.
It could also be she's always pushed people's boundaries and nobody ever told her no or her family always defended her pushing boundaries. I've seen this before where someone wasn't groomed or abused as a child but they would also push boundaries or be inappropriate and their family always defended them.
There are PLENTY of people who abuse children that have not experienced any sort of trauma in their childhoods similar to what they perpetrate, and also vice versa, people like myself who suffered abuse well into adulthood and do everything in their power to end the cycle.
As someone who has suffered literally every single kind of abuse possible, I find the concept of attributing harm in childhood to later committing more egregious harm to be an extremely dangerous stereotype that further perpetuates fear and disbelief in s* abuse survivors. I am not saying this to demonize you or tell you that you are a bad person for saying this or thinking that to be true, I just want to express how deeply hurtful it is as someone who has survived similar experiences to constantly see people attempting to relate abuse to something rational. Abuse is often not rational, it is often not based in anything other than ego and rage and the desire for power over others.
I hope you can read what I said and take it into account and realize I am only trying to spread awareness.
@@vinylpharmwait is this theatre culture thing based on lived experience?
Imagine having a mother who not only supports but creates a culture that most parents would do anything to protect their children from.
In just 2 mins Adam went from a squeaky little voice all excited about seeing Disney ears to I am stressed out before watching not knowing if I will be dragged into the legal part... BUT I CAN TAKE IT !!!!!
The moment I saw this on my YT page I clicked it. This woman seems very good at this just, and just as Adam says, very intelligent. Honestly, I feel blessed that I was not aware of Colleen until this summer, but it still fills me with statisfaction seeing her dig her own grave deeper and deeper. I cannot however image the stress this causes you, Adam and her other victims. Please take care of yourself.
Wdym intelligent? This piece of shit has the longest thoughtless thousand yard stare I've ever seen!! He's got the same IQ as frigging Cyraxx!!😂😂😂
It’s really horrifying when you see it through the eyes of an impartial observer.
Adam just want to say I hope you are taking some time for you and not over exhausting yourself. I can only imagine what’s been going on behind the scenes for you and for many others. Sending you, and your family lots of love. Another great video💕
He just got back from two trips: California and Paris. He has the loving support of his family, friends and muckers. I think he has been handling all this rather maturely and very well.
Never knew anything about Colleen's live show, but how tf did she get away with this content for so long???? It's so gross.
Look at Trisha paytas. Always got away with her disgusting content.
Colleen is a legal mistake 😭
For legal reasons, that is a joke‼️
This 💀💀💀💀
16:20 'no matter how much he asked' god she's so manipulative 😭
When I came out about my assault, it didn’t go well. Police refused to help, and my assaulter got people to harass and bully me. They eventually got my boyfriends ex & (assaulters) sister to graffiti my name, calling me bad things. Nothing ever came of it, and now my assaulter has a child. It’s sickening.
I'm so sorry that happened to you
I completely agree about her coming back with a pregnancy. It’s the only things she’s got left. This woman is a predator on so many levels.
I could see her doing a pregnancy announcement, and then announcing a pregnancy loss. Then she could get some hella empathy without having to actually get pregnant.
That's what I was thinking too. The fact that this fits her so well though... like totally seems like something she would do. I can't believe I used to like her.
Erik will have nothing to do with that. He never wanted the first 3 and I really doubt he's even sleeping with her.
Hot take. She created Miranda because she was told her whole life she couldn’t sign so she made a character that couldn’t sing in order to make herself feel better
Objectively speaking she has a good voice. I think she incorporated parts of her garbage personality in to the character to try and get away with being a mean girl.
@@cady__she hadn't just shoved aspects of her personality into her character. She shoved her whole ass into her character
She created Miranda to make fun of young girls’ singing while she herself is a terrible singer? That says everything you need to know
She’s no Lady Gaga but I do find her to be pretty talented at singing tho
@@kartgalshe is fine as a singer. She can hold a tune. She would be fine in community theater. Her biggest problem is she lacks creativity and basically just does every theater trope on earth when she’s performing.
She can sing, she just puts down others who cant sing as good as her
She can sing she's just very basic at it. But she does have a nice voice.
everyone saying she can sing, theres a video out there of her performance in waitress thats literally cringe inducing. theres a good video from a vocal instructor on that video called can colleen even sing?
That fart joke was and is so disturbing because even as an adult that shit would be humiliating & embarrassing, the joke was entirely at her expense and not in her favour.
Watched this in the stream, and I see why people wanted Adam to watch these. Legal Bytes really did a good job of breaking things down from a legal perspective in a bit more detail than others, it seems. Part 2 where she speaks about hiring fans/minors is even better. And, as usual, it is amazing to have people like this in Adam and the other victims' corner.
I still think its so funny that no one knew who Colleen Ballinger was on the Nicoldeon Orange Carpet so she had to change and Mean Mug as Miranda Sings to get people to notice her.
When younger Adam says "I considered us good friends" it brought up so much anger knowing how everything went AND IS STILL GOING.
Who's ready for the BOMB that Swoop is gonna drop!?!?!?
i cant wait to see colleen on court pulling the ukelele as a legal defense 😭 sis is going straight to jail im so sorry
How is it even deniable of what she had done. The evidence is there and you have it. I don’t know how people can pretend like she is right. You put all the evidence on the table and nobody listened. That is so messed up. I’m so sorry that this happened people are awful :(
That's what happens when you're brainwashed/loyal to someone you don't even know on a personal level.
When they don't want to believe it they will choose willful ignorance over admitting "I supported the wrong person." However, some of these supporters are kids. So they're too young to understand and process the level of manipulation that goes into situations like this
She diiid play the ukelele though... Underrated af.
Legal Bytes us a California lawyer so her reacting to this is chefs kiss ❤
And here I thought the ukulele was her legal mistake…her idiocy and moral disregards holds no bounds
I find adams voice very soothing for some reason. Love his videos.
8:47 Honestly, same. I found out about the situation after discovering your channel earlier this year, and after watching both your 2020 video and Colleen's response, I was baffled that anyone took her side. I mean, she showed your mom's message (which made her look insanely bad) and admitted to sending a minor lingerie (which isn't okay in any context) in the year 2020!!! How did anyone let that slide?!?!?!
11:55 Yes!!!! That bugged me too. Like I get that it's subjective, but she sent a red, lacy matching set, not granny panties.
the “part one” In a 40 minute video is taking me OUTTT 😭😭❤️
Ahaha the “ugggghhh I don’t even wanna hear it. I don’t even wanna hear it”😂 same boo, same.
Ur SO REAL for bringing up her facetune smooth filter on her ukulele video 😂😂 ive BEEN SAYING thats why she looks so creepy
I feel like Codi only came out about this because Colleen did something to piss her off or alienate her because Codi was an adult herself and did nothing but defend her while this shit was happening.
I think that's exactly what happened and that's why Codi got so much backlash so fast
Adam, your sense of humor is great in this! I mean, it always is, but for some reason this was especially funny.
im crying at the kodie jumpscare omg
Seeing your old video and you reliving the moment just broke my heart because no minor shouldn't go through this or be hurt by people they once trusted.
Keep your head high, Keep telling your story and stay strong. You got this. 💅
I wouldn't worry about the expecting mother defense because Elizabeth Holmes (of Theranos infamy) tried that shtick and got an 11.5 year sentence ✌️😘
Adam, you have been so consistent this whole time
I just love the corpse bride tattoo
God listening to Colleen talk is to triggering, i honestly dk how you are doing it. You are so strong, wishing you a lot of healing and peace of mind 💙🙏
I certainly hope you and the other children can sue the h*** out of her. Shame on her. Cannot believe she was a 30’ish old woman/mother. Truly disgusting 🤢
i watched this yesterday on live but it hits diff watching again
so excited for the twitch stream later love u adam!!
I’ve never, in my life, have been sensitive to watching things// I don’t really need a trigger warning for anything. The “bae” bit makes me so uncomfortable, I have to fast forward. Even with the kids faces covered. I can’t stand the act or the response from the audience. ITS SCARY!
I am having a hard time understanding the parents in this situation. While I completely understand that their children would be embarrassed if their parent stood up against this during a show, the child’s safety is more important. What is more concerning? Your kids being embarrassed, or preventing them from being sexually assaulted. This is not to say that I am putting blame on the parents, as I think this is 100% Colleen’s fault. I just don’t understand why no parent stood up against this if they saw it at the show. Anyway, sending you love Adam♥️ you sharing your story is so important and I hope you never stop speaking up against this ♥️
Because it's not just about getting the kid away. Anyone who interrupts a show to confront the star is putting a massive target on their back for all the other people there to potentially hound them, and that's not something most people are comfortable with doing.
@@user-mv5zt8qd9l that is true but as a parent, your child’s safety should take priority over everything. As a parent, your main concern and focus is to make sure your kids are safe, no matter what the situation is. You could be held at gunpoint and your child’s safety would still take priority.
I think your criticism is fair.
There’s only so much you can do around situations like this! It’s hard to say what the exact right way to react is. I remember once, I took my nephews to eat icecream, a homeless man walked up to us and pulled out a porn magazine… I didn’t know what to do! I didn’t want to make it a big scene, but I also didn’t want to draw attention to the magazine. I just ignored the homeless guy and told my nephews to eat their ice cream, I asked them if they liked their icecream…. People around us started looking around and getting concerned… the homeless guys eventually walked away. I don’t know if I did the right thing, but at the time, I just didn’t know what to do. I’m hoping they have no recollection of it, I think, it was the right call… but won’t be sure until I ask my nephews when they’re much older…. That’s like a decade from now.
Idk, if I had a daughter, I wouldn’t of let her go on stage. I would’ve cursed out Colleen, or stopped her. Done anything to prevent the humiliation.
@@cannibalrainbowsI totally see your point. It’s hard to know what you would do in a situation you have never had to deal with. I just try to put myself in their shoes and think about how I might have reacted. It’s just super interesting to me because now in hindsight, we can all look back at these videos that have been online for years, and see how inappropriate it is, yet at the time, it wasn’t thought twice about. I would be interested in hearing stories from parents who may have left the show early due the nature of the content.
And again, I don’t want to take the focus off of colleen because like I said before, I still think it is 100% her fault that this all happened
Legalbytes has done two and a third is still on the way. They are quite good.
When is Swoop's part 3 coming out?
She posted an update a few days ago saying they're working really hard to get it out but want to make sure it's not rushed - I think it will drop soon 🤞🤞
Thank you for passing over the toxic gossip train song. goodness, if i never have to hear it again it'll be too soon.
That woman complained, cried, moaned and groaned everyday of her pregnancies. She hated every minute being pregnant. A big part of that imo was being extremely unhinged over her body changes and weight gain . That is painful for people with anorexia which I whole hardly believe she was and is.
I love that adam is a (non cringe) gen z disney adult, i feel less alone lmao
Its unique 🙂
8:30 just picked up that you were sharing Johnny there lol
Its crazy but colleen used to talk about everything in her vlogs. I remeber her saying something about Becky, the kid that reached down her pants, she even mentioned there was a female employee in haters back off who would "try to put her down, not support her ideas".
Edit: Fyi i dont support colleen or excuse her behavior in any way.
im glad people are talking about the fact she only gets pregnant during the time her career is dying or whenever she gets into a scandal because she said many times she didn’t wanna get pregnant again after flynn. after her career was dying she decided to get pregnant again? not saying shes not allowed to, but its weird for someone who was 100% against getting pregnant again…ends up getting pregnant again (and then again because she miscarried which is devastating and i feel bad for her) if she ends up getting pregnant again i wont be surprised
IMO Colleen made that ukulele song because I think she thought it would make her fans feel bad for her and attack you again like last time, but it back fired on her! Listen closely to the words and imagine being a die hard 12 year old fan of hers, the words sound like an open invitation for attack on you if your think like a “kid” lol
Interesting that she always frames her behavior as "stupid," "dumb," and a "silly mistake." Never "inappropriate" or "wrong." I think she wants to keep doing it. If she says "I was inappropriate" on record then people can show her with her words that she knows it's wrong. So instead she plays dumb.
I'm just learning your story darling and binge watching your content, you've got a new supporter here, I'm sorry for what you went through! You've got a new subscriber here, it's sad it took so long for you to get some sort of peace with this but it's definitely a testimony for truth triumphing over evil and lies. Also, karma always catches up. Keep up the good work, I look forward to binging on your non she devil content 🤗
Not the baby onboard defense lol
Yeah, Elizabeth Holmes gave that one a try too. Didn’t really work out for her though.
8:08 , i realized that maybe when he mentioned "other people" he was talking about johnny!!
I don't understand how she got away with doing those shows for so long, because there had to have been some adults in those audiences, right? Why wouldn't any of them had a problem with what she was doing and spoken out about it?
Before all the Colleen stuff, i didn’t know there was a whole legal genre of yt 😭
Being one of Colleen’s kids myst suck. A lot. Like, having a mom like that must suck.
Done reacting but : money money money
I'm sure Pete mon will piggy back too lmfao

Can’t believe her channel is even up still
Yeah that’s one thing I’ve thought about it’s wild that people like Colleen and Shane are still allowed to post on TH-cam and yet J station had his channel Permabanned when all he did was obnoxious pranks and faked his girlfriend’s death.
@@user-hj1zt7pv3whe was also accused of abuse by his exes so uh.. yeah not “nothing”
I hate when women use "I'm pregnant" as a "Get out of jail" free card for something horrible they did. Like I hate it because they'll say "I'm changing for this new baby." Okay? What about the rest of your kids? Oh they don't matter? Not changing for them? Just for the new baby because he/she is going to "save" you from the sh*t you did?
Honey. The internet never forgets. And it never will. Her being pregnant will not excuse her.
And on top of that you also get people like "Guys she's pregnant let's not be so hard on her." Like b*tch she only got pregnant just so the hate will stop because once the hate stops people won't be talking about her anymore. Like yeah you don't want to stress the Mother out when she's pregnant, but at the same time...not to be mean, but people who are gross or have been gross to minors shouldn't get a break even if they become pregnant. Because you becoming pregnant should not excuse you. Or anyone. Period. You want to prey on kids? Well then you deserve the hate and backlash even when pregnant. And I don't like to say this about people, but when it comes to people who hurt kids, they don't at all deserve to be parents or have kids. Like I'm sorry, but people like that don't at all deserve to create a life. Like to me that's so f*cked up you'd hurt a child then have the audacity to go and get pregnant is so unbelieveably f*cked up you don't deserve that child or to be a parent at that point. Like that point I lost all damn respect of you as a human being and you more so shouldn't even be called human at that point because your just a straight up a monster.
And another thing, if she does or is trying, that kid is going to grow up and learn the real reason to why they were created. And it's not because it was an "accident" or it was planned. It was to legit get out of the hate of being a legit creep to other kids. I would hate to be born from a p*do. Like that's going to RUIN her baby if she does get pregnant. I hope she doesn't...If she does her baby is going to hate their Mother and be disgusted of her and why they were really created.
