the parents immediately trying to make their family the next kardashian's family immediately killed all of Charlie's momentum. Them trying to make her relatable is what killed it because when you go viral at a young age you're not relatable and it get worse as you grow older
pretty sure her dad probably started seeing her as a dollar sign once he realized how popular she was quickly getting. they already had loads of money and he saw the opportunity to exploit a market like a good capitalist.
Yeah I think her sister and family trying to piggyback off of her tiktok success is only bringing her more hate as people blame her for the rest of her families antics and gets a lot of teasing over the bits they ask her to do. She's famous for doing Tik Tok dances, just let her do that. Stop trying to make her into a reality tv star/celebrity. Realistically if she's really passionate about dance they should be focusing on her dance lessons and a dancing career. More music videos and back up dancing, less podcasts and family vlogs. Otherwise, when her audience grows up or tiktok loses popularity, she won't have a career to lean on.
Bingo! Logan and Jake's parents tried that too ... If you're smart and truly have your kids best interest at heart, you remain the parent, not the business partner. Even Dixie wanted a slice, which obviously I get, but Charli was and is always gonna be the big attraction, so let her be. Take away her you have nothing.
@squibbelsmcjohnsonthat aint it. Tiktoks are like whay, 1 minute max? Hers probably 20 seconds at best. She got famous for nothing which is fine, but its not unexpected for her basicslly fleeing and absolutely not dedicated "fanbase" not giving a fuck about her actual videos even if only 5 minutes long. Why would anyone care about what she has to say if all of her fame is based on silly easy dances 30 seconds long each?
@squibbelsmcjohnson And also because they aren't gonna sit through a 20-minute long (or however long it is) podcast. Especially if it's something they aren't interested in
@@MartyMcGoober bullshit, those who are already rich have access to far more resources that can help them succeed then those who are living pay check to pay check or those who are fucking homeless.
Rich people make good decisions because they have the space to make mistakes and have good connections with influential people. Poor people don't have the space to make mistakes and certainly don't have good connections. It seems you have no idea how the world works. I'd assume you grew up in a privileged background considering your comment @@MartyMcGoober
Glad this video is quite grounded on the criticism instead of tearing them down. Like I have no feelings for the family, but their situation also seems like a cautionary tale of what instant fame can do to normal people. The worst part is they started of at teens and seem to just go with the flow until there's no control. Kinda sucks for them even with all the wealth.
Yeah I'm glad this isn't a hit piece that's so popular today. As someone who's not very familiar with the subject, I want a fair and honest criticism, not one of those vile one-sided rants that seem to flood RUclips nowadays.
thats kind of the whole thing, young, famous out of control, I think thats the actual appeal! Its just so vanilla and straight, plus for many non americans its just a window into the world. This just made me catch a glimpse of insight on it. There is this saying a woman is at her most powerful or extravagant at sweet 16, and put worldfame on top, it like questioning where does a car with 1555HP but no driver go? put in her Sis on top, and then her whole family, its a formation and her Dad can hardly be seen as "in control" of that. And this video, very well made btw thank you for that work, just put up the answer, its going nowhere really. its bland with really no content, well except tiktok dance and dancing maybe, which is something.
the D’Amelios have always been weird to me, blowing up off of a tiktok and being treated like a celebrity instantly has been something thats bewildered me.
Good to see I'm not the only one who was absolutely baffled by the complete nonsense that we see online. Appreciate you bro, you made me feel better, I was starting to think I was just getting old or something but this genuinely is just pure unfiltered stupidity. God bless 🙏🏼👍🏻
i think he meant in a social aspect, not monetary. as in mom,dad,kids,blah blah blah. not living in a mega mansion in the mountains and constantly going on fancy trips on private jets,being tutored privately etc etc...that would be beyond average and very abnormal.
the "celebrity families are just like you" narrative gets me outraged every time, they're not just like you. They don't have real worries, they can literally do what they want, how is that similar to average? Oh, they eat dinner together, how sweet. It's made by a private chef, what do you mean "just like you", most people couldn't go to a restaurant on a daily
@@Kequinnn maybe for you buddy but the majority of Americans still go public schools. Depending on property taxs of your county or zip many public school can be just as competitive as private school. Then again those are exceptions and not the rule. All this is decided by states and ct probably has different tax laws necessitating the abundance of privatly payed for schooling but thats a different subject entirely.
@@wojciechsawicki4733in some ways they are. They get sick they have family members who they love, that get sick/pass away. They have mental illnesses. Suffer with depression/anxiety/sobriety etc etc. Thats just like us and their money doesn't fix all their problems.
thats many young people trying to be famous nowadays. They wanna call themselves a triple threat (or however many talents they are attempting) and try to do several things all at once to make it in the entertainment industry and fail at all of them. They seem disingenuous compares to someone that just really wants to act or just really wants to make music. When you try to act, sing, dance, etc all at once it feels desperate.
@@Halikarz31 That's where the "committed to nothing" comes in. Yeah I would try everything but if I was good at say 'acting' I would put all my effort into it instead of trying to make a clothing company, sing, dance, make products, etc.
theres a difference between having the opportunity to try things and creating brands for industries you know nothing about, beacause the latter costs people money and when you charge people money you should at least create a good product, her products stink, her skincare products do nothing, her tv shows are not entertaining, she's just obbjectively bad at everything she tries. Stick to what you do best, average tiktok dances that attract simps.@@Halikarz31
Already well-off spoiled, private school kids getting more internet money kinda miffs me. It's amazing how someone having what majority of kids who can't afford it have is very sad. A lot of kids on tiktok are lower middle-class or lower-class children, so seeing a relatively well off kid getting more income is just frustrating.
Your comment makes no sense. If one of those middle or lower class kids became popular, they would become spoiled and you would instantly shit on them as well. The only reason you would actually care who gets the money, is because it isn't you and you simply envy them, which is fair of course, you just sound like an immature kid.
The fact she was amazing on dwts shows the direction she should’ve gone. She actually showed talent, looked happy, and seemed to have fun. She easily could’ve transferred that success into something dance related. They could’ve showed her taking dance classes, improving, looking at careers. Instead they swept aside how she looked happy and interested and led her into a different direction.
@@sin3358 just because you don’t, doesn’t mean there isn’t any. I know a lot of them actually. And girls or guys who dance also know a lot. Twitch, Derek Hough, Misty Copeland, Julianne Hough, Carrie Ann Inaba, JLO, Paula Abdul, Shabba Doo, JoJo Siwa, Maddy Ziegler etc. If there’s an audience you can profit. Just because you don’t know any other dancers doesn’t mean others don’t. Once upon a time Soul Train and dancing shows were all the rage you never know what can happen. She could easily use TikTok to help boost her career and make her a bit mainstream. She could choreograph or dance with musical artists. She could do theatre. She could own a studio. And she could be rich too if she did it right.
Yes! She could’ve made it into a respectable and amazing career to be a backup dancer but someone with an ego like that would never want to be in the background. Imagine how much respect and money she could’ve made had she become a backup dancer for Rihanna, Taylor, or Beyoncé?
@@pumkinpatchwork When I was 16 I was still taught to treat people who are doing something for you with respect until it's no longer warranted. My eight year old nephew even knows if he doesn't like something, just quietly spit it in a napkin, not all over the floor.
They'll never go away. Brands will keep endorsing them because they think the 150m tiktok followers charli has aren't mostly bots, so that will keep their high profile image and attract more business ventures their way. At some point, they're going to reach the kardashian level where no one likes them, but they attract numbers, so brands will pay them millions to promote things. Everyone hates the kardashians by how they got famous but fail to recognise that Kris went into every possible business venture possible under their name where at some point they stuck around and people buy their products. (Skims, kylie Cosmetics, good american jeans)
But they didn’t use their money to make her famous .. so the money didn’t cause he success, she was stable but a lot of people are, she got luck, thats it. Money to make more money wasn’t the source of that
@@garretmorris6237 they meant that more abstractly. like in the sense that you have to be successful before you can be successful. It's like a one hit wonder blowing up off of Soundcloud with no real vision for what they want to do with their music.
@@garretmorris6237no hate to their family but money is a huge factor. Money means they have the time to film tik toks instead of working. Money means they have nice backgrounds to film, shiny hair, perfect skin and a stress free youthful glow. I don’t see the problem with it personally, use what you have to get ahead, but the reality is, the more money you have available to you, the easier it is to get on.
the thing is, over the years i’ve seen many many people be genuinely interested in the kardashians and whatever they have going on. i legitimately, not even online have seen anyone give an actual fuck about the damelios. at this point i feel like her following was half teenage girls who wanted to look like her, half older men who just wanted to creep on a teenage girl.
Unpopular opinion: Charlie just wanted to make TikTok and be a kid (rich or not) and the adults in her life saw the opportunity to capitalize on her fame. She may have been complicit and enjoyed the lifestyle and company she got to meet, I’ll give you that, but the ones who pulled the trigger was undoubtedly her parents and manager. The glitz and glamour of fame is always appealing until you’re in the middle of it and you have 10 different people in your ear telling you what to do next and you’re schedule is packed and you have no time for normalcy or privacy. Her sister Dixie (through envy or jealousy) wanted what Charlie has but I think Charlie would’ve been fine just being TikTok famous without brand deals and collab and went about her life, until the world moved on to the new sensation. Her folks definitely pushed her to do more and cash in on vapid mediocrity rather than develop her dancing skills and launch off of that. She would’ve have made a fine choreographer and made bank on that had to she stayed the course. I’m no fan of her or do I follow her (I don’t even have a TikTok lol). My 2 cents 😅
nah I agree 100, I hate this stigma where every online personality has to be some perfect person, she only got criticized so heavily for her spotlight & what she was handed completely by chance. she's a young girl who liked making tiktoks lol
that's what i think too. she was already living a comfortable life, i doubt she cared about being social media famous. 100% it was her parents' idea. even if she did think about getting famous, she didn't intend to start all these businesses.
As someone with skin problems since I was 12 I never understood celebrities getting into skincare. When you have real problems you go to dermatologist and they tell you what you should use. It's always something from pharmacy , dermatological cosmetics, brands that are on the market for years. Not once I ever heard any reccommedation of some celebrity brand from any doctor. Also people who actually are into skincare would never buy Kylieskin, rhode, florence or any shit like that. Even this celebrities don't use their own stuff.
In high school i tried out a skincare routine for my acne and didn't get results...then my PCP put me on benzoyl peroxide and the acne went away. I never got the skincare craze as a result. Save your money, just go see a derm.
Yup, reminds me of Ariana Grande “perfumes”. Only the teens buy them and yet they pump them out every two years as if it’s Chanel. It’s just “pocket change maintenance”.
I was thinking the other day how they have all the money in the world they could literally just Google “products dermatologists use” rip that off and make it slightly cheaper but instead they push out the cheapest shittiest products they “make” (read : push out their ass)
I think part of her appeal is her “average” lifestyle that is actually in no way average. Her family lives in a million dollar home and she goes to a rich kid school. Everything in their world looks good and is expensive. Their hair, nails, and clothes are always on point. I think this is a fantasy lifestyle for a lot of kids, who were primarily her fan base. Her parents are happily married, which right away puts them ahead of 50% of families in the US. It seems like a normal life, but in reality it’s not. Most people have some kind of bullshit going on in their world. Most of us don’t have that kind of money or lifestyle. And even if we do we don’t have parents that seem as great as theirs. It’s almost like watching a Disney channel show in some ways. The seem to live in this perfect world where everything around them is like a set for their videos, polished and nice. I think it’s a kind of escapism for a lot of kids
It's not hard to figure out why she got famous: she was a member of TikTok's target demographic, she got on it early, she had some talent at what she did, and was not too hard on the eyes. All this coupled with the platform's algorithm working in her favor the more people went and clicked on her videos made her account explode and grow exponentially. Is that really so hard to understand?
@@Escape628 maybe that's part of the charm, a girl next door? The Spice Girls weren't amazingly beautiful or talented but they were huge for a couple of years when I was a teenager.
the way the parents use charlie to stay relevant lmaooo. The parents and dixie have come to my ice cream shop job twice and no one knew who the fuck they were. The second time they ordered they were like “and one more for our daughter….our daughter CHARLIE” they way it took me the longest time to realize it was them both times😭
I'm shocked they let them eat a sweet, you know it's all about taking a photograph with the sweet/dessert and then throwing it away because you have to be *perfect*

I was a chef for over 25 years and would never offer snails to teen American girls like that. Also the first time i smelt snails preserved i threw up too. This kind of fame is so destructive. We will be reaping awful consequences for social media for many many years.
Yea I honestly think they got too much backlash for the whole snail incident tbh. Was it a little rude to throw it up? Yea kinda but you would think they killed someone with the amount of hate they were getting. Wasn’t that serious in my opinion.
She just reminds me of every teen that I've had the chance to work with as a camp counsellor recently. Kind of nice, no personality outside of their phones and awful at communicating with other humans due to COVID really stunting a lot of teenagers growth in the socialisation department
Im a dance coach and ive seen her videos from before the fame and she really missed her calling 😮😢😖🩰🩰 such a talented ballet/contemporary dancer. It seems like she misses it. She is young and I she finds her way back to herself someday. Dixie is clearly the one who wants the lifestyle 😪
Honestly feel so bad for that poor girl, she was literally a kid when she started and the expectations that ppl have for her is insane. She literally gets exploited by her managers and family which is lowkey sad after watching their show u can see how much pressure she's under while being a minor and providing for ur whole family. Never forgiving anyone for the way they treated her and still do, she's a teenager making mistakes like everyone else just with alot of eyes watching her. Honestly hope the best for her she deserves so much better
It's especially awful how she probably didn't expect any of this and somehow has to deal with millions of people watching her, the way her family keeps pressuring her into making more and more money, and how her sister does envy her. I don't think they just play that convo for the cameras.
Her name was exploited sure but fam stop being so dramatic. The whole video pointed out how her marketing was shtty at times but she’s had it good all her life So don’t be “sad”
@@ntbored7727bro have some empathy. it can seem like someone "has it good" but they can still struggle, feel negative emotions, have mental illnesses, or experience trauma. you don't know what she is going through. it's fine if you don't feel bad for her, but don't tell op how to feel... there is nothing wrong with having empathy for someone who went through something nobody else really has before. i'm not a therapist but i've been in therapy for years and i can imagine charlie prolly goes to therapy too . we know from other child/teen celebrities that fame is difficult at a young age. and the industries are very exploitative. charlie can be privileged but also struggle.
Doesn't exclude the fact that she was a child. Just cuz she had money doesn't mean anxiety, depression and internet exploitation didn't affect her. BFFR and stop being so insensitive
I completely understand and agree with your statement, but the problem is TikTok is infamous for having notoriously bad monetisation. So chances are they didn't make any money out of it until they started getting brand sponsorships.
These people need to take the money and run. If they live humbly enough, they'll never need to work again. They have an opportunity to count their blessings and walk away gracefully. I doubt they will, but they should.
I feel kinda bad for the two sisters simply because they grew up in front of an audience and got criticized as if they were adults. Every teenager has done/said dumb things, but not all had a camera in their face. I’m sure we all remember being uninterested and slightly disrespectful when we were at that angsty rebellious teenage phase. Add that with being a millionaire and you are going to have some cringy and bad moments
They can cry into the millions of dollars the fame has afforded them for zero talent. Save your sympathy for someone who sees you as a person not a number.
@@FugStatus it goes both ways, people see you have millions of dollars and followers and only see you based off that measurement. Humans have the same feelings regardless of if they are rich or not. I don’t think it’s right to spread hate to anyone let alone a kid
@@understanding77 People will never understand this, their envy gets the better of them and it’s like it completely kills their empathy. They’re children for crying out loud. Believe it or not, making more than your parents could ever hope to make and buying them a home in Hollywood Hills before you’re even out of high school is going to fuck you up in a way that people here will never understand. No child should ever be put in that position, child stardom is just flat out wrong. Just look at pretty much every child star ever, most are not in great shape so clearly there’s SOMETHING wrong with putting a kid in that place. Shame on their parents.
I've never liked James Charles and this may be wrong, but seeing how he acted at the dinner and was so well mannered during the dinner, this was the ONLY time I've respected him. Edit: I just wanted to say that I DO NOT support a child predator, I was seeing how he properly signed off and acted more well mannered for those 5 seconds than the D’amelios. I am not saying I respect him today or that I respected him throughout the whole dinner scene, just saying how I liked those 5 seconds where he humbled them. Sorry guys !!
They are one of the examples of people getting famous on TikTok and THEN figuring out what they are good at afterwards. I am honestly not as puzzled at their antics as I am Addison Rae's or the Kardashians'. It's clear this is something they did not expect.
They have a business team, that is figuring out how to extract wealth from the fame she has gathered. Its about cashing in now, then living your life after her 15 minutes have blown by. Luckily her parents had wealth before this, and will invest her earnings making sure with a trust she has the funds to last her a lifetime. Those kids are very lucky to have the parents they did, when this boon hit them.
Dixie is like the guy who constantly switches around their cosmetics during their play through of a game to spice things up, while Charlie is like the guy that just wears the standard fit the whole game
dawg most part she is a teen, shes gonna be hormonal, mf u are the problem too. When ur brain is still developing and ppl are judging they are gonna blow out of proportion @@ZuluGamingSeries
Hollywood isn’t destroying their family they are doing that on their own what happens when you give a teen millions of dollars for moving her hands back in forth.. it goes to their head. Can’t imagine good families becoming divided over getting everything they ever wanted.
The moves of the original Renegade dance by Jalaiah Harmon were not that simplistic, which was why Charlie and Addison’a version was modified and dumbed down. Even the versions of the dances that the original creators did on Jimmy Fallon were modified and dumbed down to look simple.
I’m kinda shocked by the standards people have held a teenage girl to. Like I get that there are probably equally or more talented people who will never be recognized for their talent, but why blame HER? Why not blame the corporations who are exploiting a teenager to sell their products?
The problem with TikTok and social media in general is that it will catapult bland personalities like the D'Amelios into stardom whilst actually talented people get little to no recognition for genuine skills. These guys can't even make pasta.
Can someone please explain to me the appeal of bland people like her??? It's very unrelatable to me, because if I'm going to waste my time watching some random content creator, then they better be talented, fascinating or, at the very least, bizarre enough to hold my attention. Boring people like her make me want to crawl out of my skin 1 minute into the video. I'm genuinely bewildered and desperately need someone to explain this topic to me.
@@pythondrink I'm sorry, but that makes no sense to me. If someone has nothing interesting to say or do, then they just cannot be fascinating to me in any way. I'll never forget when I decided to check out what all the hype with the Kardashians was about, I didn't even last 5 minutes. I felt like my brain was melting from boredom and I just couldn't keep watching anything to do with them. Is it all about the looks? Is it mostly pervs who are a large part of their audiences? I'm so very confused.
@@sirbuffalo it makes no sense to you? Well, chances are after watching this video, you went to watch Charlie's videos to understand what the appeal is. By doing that, you'd shoot her more into the limelight. If more ppl do this, the more ppl who will follow her just to keep up with drama. It's rly not that complicated. Just bcoz someone has large following doesn't translate to a large fan base as you assume. There's ppl who have followers that are just there to troll them. You also admitted that you did check out the Kardashians. Do you realize that by doing that, you increased the chances of other ppl seeing her and following her? That's literally how social media works. There's nothing mind-boggling about this.
i literally used to go to school with a “famous tik toker” who was friends with charli at the start of her “hype.” anyways, although he was rly popular and went to the sway house and shit, and was hanging out with all these tik toker so many people knew….no one at school cared AT ALL. walking past him in the hallway, i wouldn’t bat an eye, literally just no one cared.
Charlie D'amelio is just literally the epitome of the most popular girl in High School.. Like if there was a tier list of all the most popular girls in high school. She would edge out and beat pretty much everyone. Which is why I think she became the most followed on TikTok. In a nutshell.
I can't credit the youtuber who said it, but it was something along the lines of "it used to be that you would only see the people who stand out at your high school. On the internet, you see a massive collection of the top few people who stand out from every high school." Charlie is like if you put all the popular kids together and she is arbitrarily somehow the most popular. She's rich but not too luxurious to be relatable, good-looking but not eccentric or exceptionally stunning or sensual in a way that would make other girls super jealous. Talented but not exceptional. It's really quite incredible how someone so inoffensive could end up being so glamorized and yet so hated on. Hope she finds herself and something that fulfills her outside of internet fame.
@@JakeAdkinsOfficialShe went to a 40k a year private school and sounds like a muppet, are we seeing the same person? Nothing about her screams popular girl other than being rich, I think she is actually pretty goofy.
Let’s be honest the construct of fame has completely diminished in this aggressive social media era. On one hand you can see someone rise to “fame” in an instant and for virtually no reason . On the other hand this notoriety is fleeting since the market is so over saturated . There is so much pressure to adapt one’s fame into something legitimate . If they can’t they will fade into obscurity again.
Paris Hilton & Nicole Richie were the original "being famous for being famous" in the early 2000's. Then the Kardashian clan took a page out of their book, and became more successful because Mrs. Hilton was embarrassed by Paris's antics, but "momager" Kris embraced and joined in on her daughters antics. Now the D'Amelio's are getting in on it. Social media has made it easier & easier to get (or stay) famous for being famous.
paris hilton and nicole richie both had reasons for being famous, paris was the heiress to the hilton hotel company that was founded a long time ago, nicole richies (adoptive) dad was lionel richie a famous singer, paris and nicole went on to do the simple life which was one of the first reality shows in the 2000s and considered the most iconic of their time on tv, therefore giving them many reasons for their fame.
I read the comment about them making "James Charles look down to earth and mature.", and could not believe it. After watching this dinner, its too true 😭
It's amazing how someone, a family in this case, gets a genuine godsend gift of random popularity for literally no reason.... and decides to capitalize it by making the most boring, soulless, mediocre, generic mainstream moves and career choices that an out of touch Hollywood publicist could think.
It's not surprising at all. The "godsend gift" is average fans being star struck by a boring, average girl. She never had potential, so how could she suddenly do anything exceptional?

I heard about Charlie DAmelio, but i didn't know what she does or why she's famous, but really i can't blame no one but the parents in this.

Didn't a rep from the TikTok company say they "picked" (or a similar word) the D'Amelios from the data they had on them. It elevated them in the algorithm. They had the looks, family, came from a certain neighborhood, etc. They also hid/hide overweight, ppl of color, low income ppl, and unattractive people from the algorithm. I don't know if they still do that. But I remember seeing that interview and the response to a q from a rep to something like "do you manipulate the algoritm" and tiktok laughing and saying of course.
Bingo. She was white. She was young. She was thin. And she was decently attractive. Tiktok pushed her and the American public ate it up because they LOVE some good white female jailbait more than ANYTHING. Smart move for tiktok honestly. Racist, manipulative, and ridiculous of course but smart.
Hmm. I’ve a question…But that doesn’t explain why Bella Poarch (Filipina) became the most followed? Btw I just quickly checked who is the most followed creator as of 2023 and it’s this guy named Khaby Lame, a Senegalese-Italian. So, maybe the TikTok algo (mostly) elevates affluent people living in good neighborhoods in general?
I cannot watch this as a grown ass adult. Looking at how 2 teenage girls were cancelled because they were unmannered during dinner. This is insane. All while Patrick tells the story with a straight face as if this is perfectly normal.
she claimed she never wanted to be famous but 30 seconds before had a "vision board" which according to google represents wishes or goals, and it had jennifer lopez on it?
Unreal that these parents took their daughters at a vulnerable age and launched them into public scrutiny like this. Imagine using your daughter’s virality to move from the 1% to the top 0.1%
the opposite of love is not hate, it’s indifference. I don’t use Tiktok nor have I heard of this family. Congratulations or my condolences to them I guess
@@ramajyello for celebrities, especially influencers, strong emotions keeps them relevant. That’s why Kanye is so popular with his antics (some theorise Kanye purposely do some of the controversial stuff just to direct that attention to his next project).

These kids nowadays want to be influencers but don’t really know what that means, people dissect everything you do, because you got to this point in your life for a reason
What I don’t understand is of all the career paths the D’Amelios pursued for Charli, why didn’t they go into fashion & modelling? She already has the fame and the looks, and it’s not especially high energy, it’s literally perfect for people who don’t have anything else 😅
shes a dancer, how about dancing? why do you think she has an fashion talent? and she inst being scouted by any model agencys. Youhave just picked two careers paths as poorly suited to her as the ones her parents are picking.

She's a very young girl who caught a break on the internet and was confused what to do with that fame. The online bullying was unwarranted and made me empathize with her more.

@@vizerdgreene195 it's literally not the same when they've become multimillionaires simply because their parents have money. They can go cry in a Ferrari.
And we see that and then we throw more money at them as if they didn't already have enough. If you are rich people throw money at you. If you are poor then you are gross ( according to our culture.)
I think Charlie and Dixie’s parents are to blame cause why would you sell your daughter to an industry that is known for being extremely toxic. Charlie was 15 when she first rose to fame…
The fact they made James Charles look down to earth and good is crazy. This family needs to step away from social media and focusing on investments. They already made it big. The damage they’re doing to their brand won’t help with sustaining cash in the long run when nobody watches them anymore. There are many yt channels with millions of subs that gain 20k+ views per video when they used to get 1mil each vid. The more they space it out the more people would be interested in them so a break is much needed.
Ehh I'd throw up if someone fed me snail... don't care if you're a famous chef if it tastes like vomit...it's going to be thrown up I don't even care snail sounds disgusting! That's like if you're literally starving to death food not gourmet food 😂
@@MichellesdesignsEtc you aren’t wrong but if you have to resort to eating snails with a special guest episode interview then you’re already starving for views. This family needs better pr team and social media management. They’ve overdid their welcome. Tik tok was a great breakout but a reality tv show is overkill for what these girls can even do talent wise.
She’s a teenager, kids do dumb stuff without any real sort of substance. People complain she’s not committed to projects… how can a child commit their life to one thing? You get people in their 40’s who haven’t found a solid job yet. They’ve held her to way to high of a standard, it’s unfair and unkind. Pretty cruel to criticise someone so young.
Easy not to feel the need to commit to anything when you have everything you'd ever need from that commitment given to you already. She could've died rich never having worked a day in her life but just so happened to make money from tiktok.
As we've seen from child actors in Hollywood, a majority of the time, introducing insane fame and popularity at such a young age almost always messes with the kid's development; and yes kids because all this fame comes while they're still minors and barely have a conception of what the world is. I honestly blame the parents more than anybody else.
i'm a former dancer and i follow a few dancers on tiktok who post videos of their choreography/performances/rehearsals and you can tell how hardworking and talented they are. it kind of sucks that charli (who was likely fairly talented in her actual dance classes if she's been dancing for most of her life) rose to fame with the subpar "dancing" we all know her for. i guess when some people realize they're getting an absurd amount of popularity and wealth without putting in the effort typically associated with their craft, their artistic integrity and passion goes out the window. that said, for someone who does nothing, she attracts such a massive amount of hate. that can't be easy for anyone, let alone someone as young as her when she first started.
fr the amount of hate she receives is uncalled for, specially cuz at least she admits she just got lucky. she is unrpoblematic asf, just went viral and made the best out of the opportunity like everyone would have done. poor girl has been getting called talentless, cringey and worst things everyday since she was 15. I actually respect her for being as chill as she is.
I'm a dancer too and honestly I get why she snd other TikToks like hers get so much attention. They are relatable, fun and easy to do. I think dancers need to lower their expectations of social media
It's not really. It seems like it should be but it's not. Boogers taste like almost dry but diluted salt flakes. Snails taste like... I don't even wanna know
The real reason she became unpopular is because the creeps realized she was no longer an adolescent girl. If you think about that, it's a blessing in disguise. Life doesn't end at 18 it's just getting started and the world is your oyster. Some pathetic people can't handle that and constantly want to see someone still figuring out life, struggling, and naive. That means they never admired her.
@@pythondrink She's over 18 and we view 18 - 20 year olds as young adults instead of adolescents even though they're still psychologically maturing. She can sign papers for herself without permission. That's not something we expect adolescents to handle. Adolescents get sent to juvie, foster care, etc. and once they're over 18 even if support systems suck they won't have any at all after that. But she's free to live the life she wants even if it's not what her parents planned or even risky for her to consider.
We're like 60 seconds in and we've already got her saying "I was just like every other teenager" right after telling us that her parents spent hundreds of thousands of dollars for her to go to HIGH SCHOOL. Lmao Yeah, just like everybody else uwu
What’s funny is Fairfield County is one of the wealthiest places in the country, and the PUBLIC schools are the best in the country. So, her going to a private school and paying that much should tell you how well off they already were before the fame 😂 Edit: typo
Just cuz ur broke doesnt mean she has to also live a disprivelliged life for u? 💀😭 her parents worked hard to get a stable wealth for their children? If ur envious click off the video instead of sending hate comments charli dgaf shes living her life lol
I honestly feel really bad for Charli. It's clear she didn't really want this and it seems like she's been shoved through her whole career and has to go with it. We love when adults capitalize off children and subject them to hate
You do such a wonderful job with telling a story by being fair to all sides. I find this to be particularly sad because these girls were literally children and NO ONE deserves that kind of hate. I hope they get away from their toxic parents some day and learn from this horrible experience.
It can't be easy having all that attention on you at an age where you are bound to do and say dumb things. I wish them well, they're young and they'll find their feet at some point.
@@jackmmmmjacj did you even pay attention to the video. 33% or something of their users are under 14, lots are girls. So ya, those men are upset that their sons are being brainwashed…understandable. You not caring what kids are growing up with is a problem but you are too dense to realize it
Okay, I just have to say. As someone who can't help but wear my emotions on my sleeve. It makes me sooo damn sad to hear when people think of crying as being used to manipulate. Some people are manipulative and WILL use it as a weapon to gain sympathy or play the victim. But that's not everyone. Her tears seem genuine to me. I can't say that for other similar videos from other creaters. I have been accused before of using my tears as weapon, when I was genuinely and absolutely hurt. And that accusation honestly hurt even more. Just wanted to say, we do exist. And I realise some people will still accuse anyway.
Crying on a camera then recording it for millions of people to see is manipulative. Spare me your self righteousness Charlie should know better that actions have consequences especially on the internet
@@Legion849erm no it isnt💀 i literally dealt with a narcissist and was manipulated non stop for TWO YEARS, if charli really was manipulative i obviously wouldnt have been her fan? Like..? Educate urself on manipulation plz crying isn’t manipulation its literally a normal human emotion
When I first clocked on this video I didn’t think I’d be able to watch it although way through because of how long it is. But I did and it also felt short. They did a good job at making this video and keeping audience engaged.
It is still baffling to me that people become famous and put content out but don’t expect to get criticized and treated just like everyone else is treated on the internet.
I don't watch them at all but I'll never forget the snail scandal. Lol. The world came for a teenage girl for not liking something. I was dirt poor as a kid and would have had the same reaction. That's all. 😂
I mean it was shit but that's what internet is. If u have chosen an influencer as a career u always have to be on your best behaviour and most influencers know that shit and u should only choose that path if u are ready to handle the hate that comes with it. She's not the only influencer who get hate most tik tok stars have to deal with it.... It's something that just comes with it which is really sad but that's the reality of this business and also the fact that you aren't gaining much sympathy except from Ur followers as you are earning upwards of 20Mil an year by shaking your body on an online platform for 15 mins a day and not even being good at it
Saddest part is Jalaiah got credit only after Addison and Charlie made millons off her dance and they got called out for taking the dance. Its like yeah that's cool you did the right thing but only after you massively benefitted from doing the wrong thing. It's like a bandaid on a wound with gangren.
She's famous because she's basically the architype of that tiktok culture. She captured the network effect and it stuck. I.e. it doesn't matter that she's not the best dancer, she simply has the right 'look', the right character that the audience likes and simply has to keep producing videos. That's it.
The song "Roommates" by Dixie that you mentioned is actually a really good Pop song. It was written by Demi Lovato, Leland (who did Rush by Troye Sivan) and Nick Lopez (who did Numb Little Bug by Em Behold). The fact that these 3 decided to give it to Dixie is crazy, because you can tell that if Demi ended up singing it, it probably would have become a major hit.
It’s probably hard being a teenager and being famous at the same time. Yeah, it has it’s perks, but having the world judge you while you’re still trying to figure out what to do with your future is hard. I’m around Charli’s age, and me being famous right now would be a TERRIBLE thing for my mental health.
I usually don’t gaf about these shorties but it never makes sense on how they came up to be so famous and well off from just videos alone, I wish the actual creator of the renegade had everything she has 🤷🏽♀️, I would rather suffer in CYBERbullying than struggle with my family of 8.
I don't have tiktok and don't keep up with tiktok scene, but this video actually made the two girls (who I once felt were interchangeable) actually seem human. I felt bad for Dixie who was trying to do her own thing only to be betrayed by her entire family. Is that manufactured drama? Who can say?
I do feel bad for how hard the internet comes for Charli and Dixie, and how it seems like they have literally zero down time. I feel like the parents push them to work all the time. They’re VERY young. They don’t need all that weight on them. They didn’t even expect this level of fame.
I do feel bad for them. This family really does just seem like a normal family that was completely thrust head first into fame. They got a taste and now it’s impossible to accept it’s fading
Dude, the family was literally millionaires before all this happened; she lived in one of the wealthiest places in the US and her parents spend literal hundreds of thousands of dollars for her to go to one of the best private schools in the nation. You feel bad for them? holy hell (lmao). A normal family? WTF Are you smoking? I want some!
@@pyropulseIXXIthey were a normal family in the sense of their celebrity status, public recognition, etc… before they blew up on TikTok. Not how wealthy they were.
@@pyropulseIXXIJust because a school costs a lot of money doesn’t mean you’re necessarily rich buddy. Loans and scholarships exist lol. I went to a private school that was 20k and my parents couldn’t afford it. It’s not her fault that her parents worked and found success lol
I purposely avoided following them on any platform and avoided any news about them and I’m just now seeing this video about who they are and what they do and I’m so glad I did because this is exactly what I expected from these people. Ugh boring
Its always extra annoying when an already privileged person is handed the world, while so many of us are killing ourselves to still be broke and struggling.
SHE'S ATTRACTIVE My god is nobody else going to say it?! She's the popular girl in school that the guys want and the girls want to be (and let's not forget about creepy old men). A couple years in the future some talent agency will pick up the next attractive girl who relates better to a young audience, Charli will disappear, and the cycle repeats. Welcome to the industry. Attractive + some type of talent + luck = success. There you go any attractive girls watching, I just gave you the golden formula. (Perhaps this statement is ironic lol...)
I love how everyone is acting like they just can't figure out how she got famous. She's hot. That's it. That's all it takes for a woman to get attention. Be hot.
@benray8676 Unfortunately, yes. Sexual attraction is an infinitely stronger (and fundamentally more human) force than any interesting talent you can pick up. People will never acknowledge this out of fear of being rude, though. It's good business.
Thank you for covering the D’Amelio’s, Patrick. There rise to fame was definitely super fast and Charli was exceptionally young when she saw that immense engagement. She’s no longer the face of TikTok now that the app is no longer dancing focused and more on skits. Still very interesting to see the relationship between Charli and Dixie as well since Dixie is clearly more devoted to the industries that she has tapped into
Whats crazy is that i know theres this tier of tiktok mega star who is super prevalent in news and media discussions but I've never once seen any of their videos show up on my fyp.
Hold on.. I’m really hung up on the fact she ate her nose gold on camera and In front of so many people so casually, do they all eat their own boogers..?
Fr like is no one talking about this? How casually a famous person can pick their nose on camera, in frot of their family and another famous person and eat it but no one bats an eye? 🧐
I think the only reason she gets actual hate is because she randomly became famous and people are jealous. Thats a majority. Maybe they deserve it mayber they dont but they arent bad people.
You have a well researched, journalistic style to your content, it’s refreshing and very interesting, i learn something new every time you drop something hot off the press. Thank you, and keep up the good work it’s inspiring and sets a solid work ethic for anyone curious about what it it takes to be a successful YT contributor.
She has handled the extreme hate gracefully, hell it’s not her fault she randomly blew up. The try hards are just as bad as her tik toks but she barely is trying
Idk bro the Walmart video was very weird and people can’t defend that. And seriously no one was talking about them for the past 2 years and they popped out of nowhere this year. I don’t think it’s the fans this time

good job patty!!!!
"Lol"? Why would that be "lol"? Seriously How is that funny? 😑🤌🏻
the parents immediately trying to make their family the next kardashian's family immediately killed all of Charlie's momentum. Them trying to make her relatable is what killed it because when you go viral at a young age you're not relatable and it get worse as you grow older
pretty sure her dad probably started seeing her as a dollar sign once he realized how popular she was quickly getting. they already had loads of money and he saw the opportunity to exploit a market like a good capitalist.
It's funny because a normal teenager doesn't have a personality for entertainment. So she is actually pretty relatable in that she shouldn't be famous
Yeah I think her sister and family trying to piggyback off of her tiktok success is only bringing her more hate as people blame her for the rest of her families antics and gets a lot of teasing over the bits they ask her to do.
She's famous for doing Tik Tok dances, just let her do that. Stop trying to make her into a reality tv star/celebrity.
Realistically if she's really passionate about dance they should be focusing on her dance lessons and a dancing career. More music videos and back up dancing, less podcasts and family vlogs.
Otherwise, when her audience grows up or tiktok loses popularity, she won't have a career to lean on.
Bingo! Logan and Jake's parents tried that too ... If you're smart and truly have your kids best interest at heart, you remain the parent, not the business partner. Even Dixie wanted a slice, which obviously I get, but Charli was and is always gonna be the big attraction, so let her be. Take away her you have nothing.
@@logank444 omg 100%. She's so plain, that she's relatable only to teenagers and kids.
How someone can have 100 million followers and only get 4k views on a podcast is insane: huge tell she really has no influence.
Her tween followers don't have the brain capacity and capacity to listen to a podcast
@squibbelsmcjohnsonthat aint it. Tiktoks are like whay, 1 minute max? Hers probably 20 seconds at best. She got famous for nothing which is fine, but its not unexpected for her basicslly fleeing and absolutely not dedicated "fanbase" not giving a fuck about her actual videos even if only 5 minutes long. Why would anyone care about what she has to say if all of her fame is based on silly easy dances 30 seconds long each?
@squibbelsmcjohnson And also because they aren't gonna sit through a 20-minute long (or however long it is) podcast. Especially if it's something they aren't interested in

I'd assume you grew up in a privileged background considering your comment @@MartyMcGoober
Glad this video is quite grounded on the criticism instead of tearing them down. Like I have no feelings for the family, but their situation also seems like a cautionary tale of what instant fame can do to normal people.
The worst part is they started of at teens and seem to just go with the flow until there's no control. Kinda sucks for them even with all the wealth.
Yeah I'm glad this isn't a hit piece that's so popular today. As someone who's not very familiar with the subject, I want a fair and honest criticism, not one of those vile one-sided rants that seem to flood RUclips nowadays.
@@One.Zero.One101Like Sunny V2. Mean spirited content.
thats kind of the whole thing, young, famous out of control, I think thats the actual appeal! Its just so vanilla and straight, plus for many non americans its just a window into the world.
This just made me catch a glimpse of insight on it. There is this saying a woman is at her most powerful or extravagant at sweet 16, and put worldfame on top, it like questioning where does a car with 1555HP but no driver go?
put in her Sis on top, and then her whole family, its a formation and her Dad can hardly be seen as "in control" of that.
And this video, very well made btw thank you for that work, just put up the answer, its going nowhere really. its bland with really no content, well except tiktok dance and dancing maybe, which is something.
the D’Amelios have always been weird to me, blowing up off of a tiktok and being treated like a celebrity instantly has been something thats bewildered me.
They are trying so hard to be the Kardashians 😂
Good to see I'm not the only one who was absolutely baffled by the complete nonsense that we see online. Appreciate you bro, you made me feel better, I was starting to think I was just getting old or something but this genuinely is just pure unfiltered stupidity. God bless 🙏🏼👍🏻

i think he meant in a social aspect, not monetary.
as in mom,dad,kids,blah blah blah.
not living in a mega mansion in the mountains and constantly going on fancy trips on private jets,being tutored privately etc etc...that would be beyond average and very abnormal.
the "celebrity families are just like you" narrative gets me outraged every time, they're not just like you. They don't have real worries, they can literally do what they want, how is that similar to average? Oh, they eat dinner together, how sweet. It's made by a private chef, what do you mean "just like you", most people couldn't go to a restaurant on a daily
@@Kequinnn maybe for you buddy but the majority of Americans still go public schools. Depending on property taxs of your county or zip many public school can be just as competitive as private school.

“She tried everything but was committed to nothing.” !!!!! Well said
If you had that opportunity, to try literally anything, wouldn't you?
thats many young people trying to be famous nowadays. They wanna call themselves a triple threat (or however many talents they are attempting) and try to do several things all at once to make it in the entertainment industry and fail at all of them. They seem disingenuous compares to someone that just really wants to act or just really wants to make music. When you try to act, sing, dance, etc all at once it feels desperate.
@@Halikarz31 That's where the "committed to nothing" comes in. Yeah I would try everything but if I was good at say 'acting' I would put all my effort into it instead of trying to make a clothing company, sing, dance, make products, etc.
theres a difference between having the opportunity to try things and creating brands for industries you know nothing about, beacause the latter costs people money and when you charge people money you should at least create a good product, her products stink, her skincare products do nothing, her tv shows are not entertaining, she's just obbjectively bad at everything she tries. Stick to what you do best, average tiktok dances that attract simps.@@Halikarz31
But she definitely made millions of dollars, even at the cost of self-respect or whatever you call it. You decide what you prioritize......
Already well-off spoiled, private school kids getting more internet money kinda miffs me. It's amazing how someone having what majority of kids who can't afford it have is very sad. A lot of kids on tiktok are lower middle-class or lower-class children, so seeing a relatively well off kid getting more income is just frustrating.
Tiktok is destructive for a child of any class tho.
Your comment makes no sense. If one of those middle or lower class kids became popular, they would become spoiled and you would instantly shit on them as well.
The only reason you would actually care who gets the money, is because it isn't you and you simply envy them, which is fair of course, you just sound like an immature kid.
The fact she was amazing on dwts shows the direction she should’ve gone. She actually showed talent, looked happy, and seemed to have fun. She easily could’ve transferred that success into something dance related. They could’ve showed her taking dance classes, improving, looking at careers. Instead they swept aside how she looked happy and interested and led her into a different direction.
This is what old parents do to a son.
I agree. On her show she has bad anxiety issues and they make her do thing's she doesn't want to. My guess she didn't want to do a podcast.
But many dancers arent famous at all. Idk a single famous dancer. She'd have the same life now. Its sad that her parents brought this upon her
@@sin3358 just because you don’t, doesn’t mean there isn’t any. I know a lot of them actually. And girls or guys who dance also know a lot. Twitch, Derek Hough, Misty Copeland, Julianne Hough, Carrie Ann Inaba, JLO, Paula Abdul, Shabba Doo, JoJo Siwa, Maddy Ziegler etc. If there’s an audience you can profit. Just because you don’t know any other dancers doesn’t mean others don’t. Once upon a time Soul Train and dancing shows were all the rage you never know what can happen. She could easily use TikTok to help boost her career and make her a bit mainstream. She could choreograph or dance with musical artists. She could do theatre. She could own a studio. And she could be rich too if she did it right.
Yes! She could’ve made it into a respectable and amazing career to be a backup dancer but someone with an ego like that would never want to be in the background. Imagine how much respect and money she could’ve made had she become a backup dancer for Rihanna, Taylor, or Beyoncé?
It’s crazy when you make James Charles look down to earth and mature.

They'll never go away. Brands will keep endorsing them because they think the 150m tiktok followers charli has aren't mostly bots, so that will keep their high profile image and attract more business ventures their way. At some point, they're going to reach the kardashian level where no one likes them, but they attract numbers, so brands will pay them millions to promote things. Everyone hates the kardashians by how they got famous but fail to recognise that Kris went into every possible business venture possible under their name where at some point they stuck around and people buy their products. (Skims, kylie Cosmetics, good american jeans)

@@garretmorris6237no hate to their family but money is a huge factor. Money means they have the time to film tik toks instead of working.

Unpopular opinion: Charlie just wanted to make TikTok and be a kid (rich or not) and the adults in her life saw the opportunity to capitalize on her fame. She may have been complicit and enjoyed the lifestyle and company she got to meet, I’ll give you that, but the ones who pulled the trigger was undoubtedly her parents and manager. The glitz and glamour of fame is always appealing until you’re in the middle of it and you have 10 different people in your ear telling you what to do next and you’re schedule is packed and you have no time for normalcy or privacy. Her sister Dixie (through envy or jealousy) wanted what Charlie has but I think Charlie would’ve been fine just being TikTok famous without brand deals and collab and went about her life, until the world moved on to the new sensation. Her folks definitely pushed her to do more and cash in on vapid mediocrity rather than develop her dancing skills and launch off of that. She would’ve have made a fine choreographer and made bank on that had to she stayed the course. I’m no fan of her or do I follow her (I don’t even have a TikTok lol). My 2 cents 😅
Solid theory.
That sounds like a fair assessment.
nah I agree 100, I hate this stigma where every online personality has to be some perfect person, she only got criticized so heavily for her spotlight & what she was handed completely by chance. she's a young girl who liked making tiktoks lol
that's what i think too. she was already living a comfortable life, i doubt she cared about being social media famous. 100% it was her parents' idea. even if she did think about getting famous, she didn't intend to start all these businesses.
Thanks!!!!!!!! that's what I wanted someone to say in here
As someone with skin problems since I was 12 I never understood celebrities getting into skincare. When you have real problems you go to dermatologist and they tell you what you should use. It's always something from pharmacy , dermatological cosmetics, brands that are on the market for years. Not once I ever heard any reccommedation of some celebrity brand from any doctor. Also people who actually are into skincare would never buy Kylieskin, rhode, florence or any shit like that. Even this celebrities don't use their own stuff.
facts
In high school i tried out a skincare routine for my acne and didn't get results...then my PCP put me on benzoyl peroxide and the acne went away. I never got the skincare craze as a result. Save your money, just go see a derm.
Yup, reminds me of Ariana Grande “perfumes”. Only the teens buy them and yet they pump them out every two years as if it’s Chanel.
It’s just “pocket change maintenance”.
I was thinking the other day how they have all the money in the world they could literally just Google “products dermatologists use” rip that off and make it slightly cheaper but instead they push out the cheapest shittiest products they “make” (read : push out their ass)
Please blame the idiots that purchase their products
I think part of her appeal is her “average” lifestyle that is actually in no way average. Her family lives in a million dollar home and she goes to a rich kid school. Everything in their world looks good and is expensive. Their hair, nails, and clothes are always on point. I think this is a fantasy lifestyle for a lot of kids, who were primarily her fan base. Her parents are happily married, which right away puts them ahead of 50% of families in the US. It seems like a normal life, but in reality it’s not. Most people have some kind of bullshit going on in their world. Most of us don’t have that kind of money or lifestyle. And even if we do we don’t have parents that seem as great as theirs. It’s almost like watching a Disney channel show in some ways. The seem to live in this perfect world where everything around them is like a set for their videos, polished and nice. I think it’s a kind of escapism for a lot of kids

That’s what their life looks like a social media but like 90% of ppl that post lavish lifestyles usually are on the brink of collapse.
It's not hard to figure out why she got famous: she was a member of TikTok's target demographic, she got on it early, she had some talent at what she did, and was not too hard on the eyes. All this coupled with the platform's algorithm working in her favor the more people went and clicked on her videos made her account explode and grow exponentially. Is that really so hard to understand?
Nope, people just want to hate on her because it didn’t happen to them.

she was fantastic in dancing with the stars though
thats sad
😂 Started out as a compliment & quickly turned brutal
Im a dance coach and ive seen her videos from before the fame and she really missed her calling 😮😢😖🩰🩰 such a talented ballet/contemporary dancer.
It seems like she misses it. She is young and I she finds her way back to herself someday.
Dixie is clearly the one who wants the lifestyle 😪
Honestly feel so bad for that poor girl, she was literally a kid when she started and the expectations that ppl have for her is insane. She literally gets exploited by her managers and family which is lowkey sad after watching their show u can see how much pressure she's under while being a minor and providing for ur whole family. Never forgiving anyone for the way they treated her and still do, she's a teenager making mistakes like everyone else just with alot of eyes watching her. Honestly hope the best for her she deserves so much better
It's especially awful how she probably didn't expect any of this and somehow has to deal with millions of people watching her, the way her family keeps pressuring her into making more and more money, and how her sister does envy her. I don't think they just play that convo for the cameras.
Her name was exploited sure but fam stop being so dramatic.

Doesn't exclude the fact that she was a child. Just cuz she had money doesn't mean anxiety, depression and internet exploitation didn't affect her. BFFR and stop being so insensitive

BRO for real, like you won, you did it - go retire now and enjoy life!!
I completely understand and agree with your statement, but the problem is TikTok is infamous for having notoriously bad monetisation. So chances are they didn't make any money out of it until they started getting brand sponsorships.
These people need to take the money and run. If they live humbly enough, they'll never need to work again. They have an opportunity to count their blessings and walk away gracefully. I doubt they will, but they should.
I feel kinda bad for the two sisters simply because they grew up in front of an audience and got criticized as if they were adults. Every teenager has done/said dumb things, but not all had a camera in their face. I’m sure we all remember being uninterested and slightly disrespectful when we were at that angsty rebellious teenage phase. Add that with being a millionaire and you are going to have some cringy and bad moments
They can cry into the millions of dollars the fame has afforded them for zero talent. Save your sympathy for someone who sees you as a person not a number.
@@FugStatus it goes both ways, people see you have millions of dollars and followers and only see you based off that measurement. Humans have the same feelings regardless of if they are rich or not. I don’t think it’s right to spread hate to anyone let alone a kid

@@understanding77 People will never understand this, their envy gets the better of them and it’s like it completely kills their empathy. They’re children for crying out loud. Believe it or not, making more than your parents could ever hope to make and buying them a home in Hollywood Hills before you’re even out of high school is going to fuck you up in a way that people here will never understand. No child should ever be put in that position, child stardom is just flat out wrong. Just look at pretty much every child star ever, most are not in great shape so clearly there’s SOMETHING wrong with putting a kid in that place. Shame on their parents.
Parents dragged it
I've never liked James Charles and this may be wrong, but seeing how he acted at the dinner and was so well mannered during the dinner, this was the ONLY time I've respected him.
Edit: I just wanted to say that I DO NOT support a child predator, I was seeing how he properly signed off and acted more well mannered for those 5 seconds than the D’amelios. I am not saying I respect him today or that I respected him throughout the whole dinner scene, just saying how I liked those 5 seconds where he humbled them. Sorry guys !!
I was thinking the same exact thing
"He may be a child predator but wow he's so polite" ???
It was good of him to act better than everyone else (which wouldn't be hard to do), but he definitely didn't earn my respect from it, lol
"Wow this p3dophile is so well mannered, I respect that" You have to be joking?

They are one of the examples of people getting famous on TikTok and THEN figuring out what they are good at afterwards. I am honestly not as puzzled at their antics as I am Addison Rae's or the Kardashians'. It's clear this is something they did not expect.
They got unexpectedly famous and the greedy cooperations took advantage of them. You can't really blame them.
They have a business team, that is figuring out how to extract wealth from the fame she has gathered. Its about cashing in now, then living your life after her 15 minutes have blown by. Luckily her parents had wealth before this, and will invest her earnings making sure with a trust she has the funds to last her a lifetime. Those kids are very lucky to have the parents they did, when this boon hit them.

The moves of the original Renegade dance by Jalaiah Harmon were not that simplistic, which was why Charlie and Addison’a version was modified and dumbed down.
Even the versions of the dances that the original creators did on Jimmy Fallon were modified and dumbed down to look simple.
Apparently people like the dumb down versions tho. I guess they’re more kid friendly? Since that’s her following
They just made it more accessible for people, kids mostly, that aren't dancers.

Cause most people aren't smart enough to rationalize propperly
The problem with TikTok and social media in general is that it will catapult bland personalities like the D'Amelios into stardom whilst actually talented people get little to no recognition for genuine skills. These guys can't even make pasta.
It's not rly surprisingly tbh. The very fact of being weird and uninteresting can make them interesting and eventually famous.
Exactly it’s so annoying honestly
Can someone please explain to me the appeal of bland people like her??? It's very unrelatable to me, because if I'm going to waste my time watching some random content creator, then they better be talented, fascinating or, at the very least, bizarre enough to hold my attention. Boring people like her make me want to crawl out of my skin 1 minute into the video. I'm genuinely bewildered and desperately need someone to explain this topic to me.
@@pythondrink I'm sorry, but that makes no sense to me. If someone has nothing interesting to say or do, then they just cannot be fascinating to me in any way.

I felt like my brain was melting from boredom and I just couldn't keep watching anything to do with them. Is it all about the looks? Is it mostly pervs who are a large part of their audiences? I'm so very confused.
@@sirbuffalo it makes no sense to you? Well, chances are after watching this video, you went to watch Charlie's videos to understand what the appeal is. By doing that, you'd shoot her more into the limelight. If more ppl do this, the more ppl who will follow her just to keep up with drama. It's rly not that complicated. Just bcoz someone has large following doesn't translate to a large fan base as you assume. There's ppl who have followers that are just there to troll them.
You also admitted that you did check out the Kardashians. Do you realize that by doing that, you increased the chances of other ppl seeing her and following her? That's literally how social media works. There's nothing mind-boggling about this.
i literally used to go to school with a “famous tik toker” who was friends with charli at the start of her “hype.” anyways, although he was rly popular and went to the sway house and shit, and was hanging out with all these tik toker so many people knew….no one at school cared AT ALL. walking past him in the hallway, i wouldn’t bat an eye, literally just no one cared.
bcs hes a snicker
Charlie D'amelio is just literally the epitome of the most popular girl in High School.. Like if there was a tier list of all the most popular girls in high school. She would edge out and beat pretty much everyone. Which is why I think she became the most followed on TikTok. In a nutshell.
I can't credit the youtuber who said it, but it was something along the lines of "it used to be that you would only see the people who stand out at your high school. On the internet, you see a massive collection of the top few people who stand out from every high school." Charlie is like if you put all the popular kids together and she is arbitrarily somehow the most popular. She's rich but not too luxurious to be relatable, good-looking but not eccentric or exceptionally stunning or sensual in a way that would make other girls super jealous. Talented but not exceptional. It's really quite incredible how someone so inoffensive could end up being so glamorized and yet so hated on.
Hope she finds herself and something that fulfills her outside of internet fame.

Let’s be honest the construct of fame has completely diminished in this aggressive social media era. On one hand you can see someone rise to “fame” in an instant and for virtually no reason . On the other hand this notoriety is fleeting since the market is so over saturated . There is so much pressure to adapt one’s fame into something legitimate . If they can’t they will fade into obscurity again.
Agreed. On top of that, fame now doesn’t equate to riches anymore either… you can have a household name with no money or assets
Hit the nail on the head here. I almost don’t blame her for doing all this. May as well capitalise on it while you can and set yourself up for life.
Paris Hilton & Nicole Richie were the original "being famous for being famous" in the early 2000's. Then the Kardashian clan took a page out of their book, and became more successful because Mrs. Hilton was embarrassed by Paris's antics, but "momager" Kris embraced and joined in on her daughters antics. Now the D'Amelio's are getting in on it. Social media has made it easier & easier to get (or stay) famous for being famous.
Well the whole Juice situation didn’t help since their dad was his lawyer
Kris has litreally pimped out her daugthers, all for money
paris hilton and nicole richie both had reasons for being famous, paris was the heiress to the hilton hotel company that was founded a long time ago, nicole richies (adoptive) dad was lionel richie a famous singer, paris and nicole went on to do the simple life which was one of the first reality shows in the 2000s and considered the most iconic of their time on tv, therefore giving them many reasons for their fame.
I read the comment about them making "James Charles look down to earth and mature.", and could not believe it.
After watching this dinner, its too true 😭
getting somebody to watch you for 10 seconds is a lot different than getting someone to be investing in your story
It's amazing how someone, a family in this case, gets a genuine godsend gift of random popularity for literally no reason.... and decides to capitalize it by making the most boring, soulless, mediocre, generic mainstream moves and career choices that an out of touch Hollywood publicist could think.
And then after turning herself into a company whines about how she's a person

Didn't a rep from the TikTok company say they "picked" (or a similar word) the D'Amelios from the data they had on them. It elevated them in the algorithm. They had the looks, family, came from a certain neighborhood, etc. They also hid/hide overweight, ppl of color, low income ppl, and unattractive people from the algorithm. I don't know if they still do that. But I remember seeing that interview and the response to a q from a rep to something like "do you manipulate the algoritm" and tiktok laughing and saying of course.
That is absolutely correct and the CEO was grilled in Congress and he was lying through his teeth
that sounds pretty based if you ask me.
I dont understand why they bother. Just let people choose who they want to see.
Bingo. She was white. She was young. She was thin. And she was decently attractive. Tiktok pushed her and the American public ate it up because they LOVE some good white female jailbait more than ANYTHING. Smart move for tiktok honestly. Racist, manipulative, and ridiculous of course but smart.
Hmm. I’ve a question…But that doesn’t explain why Bella Poarch (Filipina) became the most followed? Btw I just quickly checked who is the most followed creator as of 2023 and it’s this guy named Khaby Lame, a Senegalese-Italian. So, maybe the TikTok algo (mostly) elevates affluent people living in good neighborhoods in general?

That part.
The fact they made James Charles look down to earth and good is crazy. This family needs to step away from social media and focusing on investments. They already made it big. The damage they’re doing to their brand won’t help with sustaining cash in the long run when nobody watches them anymore. There are many yt channels with millions of subs that gain 20k+ views per video when they used to get 1mil each vid. The more they space it out the more people would be interested in them so a break is much needed.

Easy not to feel the need to commit to anything when you have everything you'd ever need from that commitment given to you already. She could've died rich never having worked a day in her life but just so happened to make money from tiktok.
Cope and grow up
This is the first and last video I’ll ever watch on that topic. Holy shit I’m so happy I’m out of the loop. Never have and never will use social media
RUclips IS social media.
As we've seen from child actors in Hollywood, a majority of the time, introducing insane fame and popularity at such a young age almost always messes with the kid's development; and yes kids because all this fame comes while they're still minors and barely have a conception of what the world is. I honestly blame the parents more than anybody else.
i'm a former dancer and i follow a few dancers on tiktok who post videos of their choreography/performances/rehearsals and you can tell how hardworking and talented they are. it kind of sucks that charli (who was likely fairly talented in her actual dance classes if she's been dancing for most of her life) rose to fame with the subpar "dancing" we all know her for. i guess when some people realize they're getting an absurd amount of popularity and wealth without putting in the effort typically associated with their craft, their artistic integrity and passion goes out the window. that said, for someone who does nothing, she attracts such a massive amount of hate. that can't be easy for anyone, let alone someone as young as her when she first started.
fr the amount of hate she receives is uncalled for, specially cuz at least she admits she just got lucky. she is unrpoblematic asf, just went viral and made the best out of the opportunity like everyone would have done. poor girl has been getting called talentless, cringey and worst things everyday since she was 15. I actually respect her for being as chill as she is.

Throwing up after eating a snail but then eating a booger nonchalantly is crazy lmao
It's not really. It seems like it should be but it's not. Boogers taste like almost dry but diluted salt flakes. Snails taste like... I don't even wanna know
@@ramajyello hahaha you would know what boogers taste like
@@ramajyello lol wow
@@ramajyellonails are delicious and smell good, boogers smell like boogers and we know it’s disgusting
@squibbelsmcjohnson As a former nasty kid, yeah, I do
4:10 I can’t believe it’s been 4 years already. I’m still trying to process 2021-2023.
Same lmao
The real reason she became unpopular is because the creeps realized she was no longer an adolescent girl.
If you think about that, it's a blessing in disguise.
Life doesn't end at 18 it's just getting started and the world is your oyster.
Some pathetic people can't handle that and constantly want to see someone still figuring out life, struggling, and naive.
That means they never admired her.
This! People don't want to acknowledge this. But it's the sick reality.
Ummm
Nice one, sociologist. Also, I'm pretty sure she's an adolescent but ok.
Same for "Bhadbhabie" imo. Yes, she has OF and $ but we barely hear from her now.
@@pythondrink She's over 18 and we view 18 - 20 year olds as young adults instead of adolescents even though they're still psychologically maturing. She can sign papers for herself without permission. That's not something we expect adolescents to handle. Adolescents get sent to juvie, foster care, etc. and once they're over 18 even if support systems suck they won't have any at all after that. But she's free to live the life she wants even if it's not what her parents planned or even risky for her to consider.
Nobody else can shade the way Patrick does. I love it.
I was confused by the, "closed minded people didn't give her/music a second chance." 😂😂 I was like, "Uh, SHADE!!"
"but she drinks Dunkin Donuts so well"
You know it's bad when you make James Charles look like a good person
Right 💀

you know it's bad when people are defending child predators over a teenage girl
@@eo0-g9j you know it’s bad when you miss the context of the entire comment section 🙄
@@eo0-g9j no one here is defending james charles
I’ve been watching on and off for a little over a year I think, I subbed today idk what it is but your videos are relaxing as hell
He has a mellow soothing voice.
It seems that the dad and mom wants the publicity more than the kids. Patrick I really love your insight on this family.
We're like 60 seconds in and we've already got her saying "I was just like every other teenager" right after telling us that her parents spent hundreds of thousands of dollars for her to go to HIGH SCHOOL.
Lmao
Yeah, just like everybody else uwu
What’s funny is Fairfield County is one of the wealthiest places in the country, and the PUBLIC schools are the best in the country. So, her going to a private school and paying that much should tell you how well off they already were before the fame 😂
Edit: typo
imagine hating on a teenage girl when you're grown
Just cuz ur broke doesnt mean she has to also live a disprivelliged life for u? 💀😭 her parents worked hard to get a stable wealth for their children? If ur envious click off the video instead of sending hate comments charli dgaf shes living her life lol
@@eo0-g9jexactly
You should forgive that, haven’t you seen how good she is at consuming Dunkin Donuts coffee in her Tiktoks?
I honestly feel really bad for Charli. It's clear she didn't really want this and it seems like she's been shoved through her whole career and has to go with it.
We love when adults capitalize off children and subject them to hate
You do such a wonderful job with telling a story by being fair to all sides. I find this to be particularly sad because these girls were literally children and NO ONE deserves that kind of hate. I hope they get away from their toxic parents some day and learn from this horrible experience.
It can't be easy having all that attention on you at an age where you are bound to do and say dumb things. I wish them well, they're young and they'll find their feet at some point.
yeah i feel bad for her TBH. Jealous bullies are nasty.
Regardless of talent or lack there of, this kind of bullying is unacceptable
Matter of opinion
@@jackmmmmjacj did you even pay attention to the video. 33% or something of their users are under 14, lots are girls. So ya, those men are upset that their sons are being brainwashed…understandable. You not caring what kids are growing up with is a problem but you are too dense to realize it

Okay, I just have to say. As someone who can't help but wear my emotions on my sleeve. It makes me sooo damn sad to hear when people think of crying as being used to manipulate. Some people are manipulative and WILL use it as a weapon to gain sympathy or play the victim. But that's not everyone. Her tears seem genuine to me. I can't say that for other similar videos from other creaters.
I have been accused before of using my tears as weapon, when I was genuinely and absolutely hurt. And that accusation honestly hurt even more.
Just wanted to say, we do exist. And I realise some people will still accuse anyway.
Crying on a camera then recording it for millions of people to see is manipulative. Spare me your self righteousness Charlie should know better that actions have consequences especially on the internet
True❤
It is manipulative to cry on camera, edit it and post it… and if that’s you then it’s time to unpack that
Exactly
@@Legion849erm no it isnt💀 i literally dealt with a narcissist and was manipulated non stop for TWO YEARS, if charli really was manipulative i obviously wouldnt have been her fan? Like..? Educate urself on manipulation plz crying isn’t manipulation its literally a normal human emotion
When I first clocked on this video I didn’t think I’d be able to watch it although way through because of how long it is. But I did and it also felt short. They did a good job at making this video and keeping audience engaged.
It is still baffling to me that people become famous and put content out but don’t expect to get criticized and treated just like everyone else is treated on the internet.
I don't watch them at all but I'll never forget the snail scandal. Lol. The world came for a teenage girl for not liking something. I was dirt poor as a kid and would have had the same reaction. That's all. 😂
I wouldn't even have tried it. It wasn't going near my mouth and idc who feels offended. 🤮
I mean it was shit but that's what internet is. If u have chosen an influencer as a career u always have to be on your best behaviour and most influencers know that shit and u should only choose that path if u are ready to handle the hate that comes with it. She's not the only influencer who get hate most tik tok stars have to deal with it.... It's something that just comes with it which is really sad but that's the reality of this business and also the fact that you aren't gaining much sympathy except from Ur followers as you are earning upwards of 20Mil an year by shaking your body on an online platform for 15 mins a day and not even being good at it
I though dixie behavior was a bit much but they really got mad at Charli for asking for the superior dish Dino nuggets
eating her own booger is the most egregious part how is no one talking about this
It was more about her table manners and behavior. She was old enough to know how to act better but decided to act like a 5 year old.
Saddest part is Jalaiah got credit only after Addison and Charlie made millons off her dance and they got called out for taking the dance. Its like yeah that's cool you did the right thing but only after you massively benefitted from doing the wrong thing. It's like a bandaid on a wound with gangren.
She's famous because she's basically the architype of that tiktok culture. She captured the network effect and it stuck. I.e. it doesn't matter that she's not the best dancer, she simply has the right 'look', the right character that the audience likes and simply has to keep producing videos. That's it.
The song "Roommates" by Dixie that you mentioned is actually a really good Pop song. It was written by Demi Lovato, Leland (who did Rush by Troye Sivan) and Nick Lopez (who did Numb Little Bug by Em Behold). The fact that these 3 decided to give it to Dixie is crazy, because you can tell that if Demi ended up singing it, it probably would have become a major hit.
It’s probably hard being a teenager and being famous at the same time. Yeah, it has it’s perks, but having the world judge you while you’re still trying to figure out what to do with your future is hard. I’m around Charli’s age, and me being famous right now would be a TERRIBLE thing for my mental health.
Oh, the world bullied her just because she was pretty and had a good family. I feel really bad for her and hope she stays off social media forever.
I usually don’t gaf about these shorties but it never makes sense on how they came up to be so famous and well off from just videos alone, I wish the actual creator of the renegade had everything she has 🤷🏽♀️, I would rather suffer in CYBERbullying than struggle with my family of 8.
@@ForeverBlooming-05 Models exist for a reason.
But she didn't have to do anything, she was very rich anyway, it's not the same.
I don't have tiktok and don't keep up with tiktok scene, but this video actually made the two girls (who I once felt were interchangeable) actually seem human. I felt bad for Dixie who was trying to do her own thing only to be betrayed by her entire family. Is that manufactured drama? Who can say?
This is maybe why tiktok creators be trying to do the same thing like creators do on youtube and it is just ignoring the hate and great video man :]
Even my 15 year old, addicted to tiktok, little sister is tired of them and that says something.
I do feel bad for how hard the internet comes for Charli and Dixie, and how it seems like they have literally zero down time. I feel like the parents push them to work all the time. They’re VERY young. They don’t need all that weight on them. They didn’t even expect this level of fame.
I do feel bad for them. This family really does just seem like a normal family that was completely thrust head first into fame. They got a taste and now it’s impossible to accept it’s fading
15 minutes have came and gone .... Only REAL/Superb talent gets more than 15 minutes
Dude, the family was literally millionaires before all this happened; she lived in one of the wealthiest places in the US and her parents spend literal hundreds of thousands of dollars for her to go to one of the best private schools in the nation.
You feel bad for them? holy hell (lmao). A normal family? WTF Are you smoking? I want some!
@@pyropulseIXXIthey were a normal family in the sense of their celebrity status, public recognition, etc… before they blew up on TikTok. Not how wealthy they were.
feeling bad for millionaires lmao
@@pyropulseIXXIJust because a school costs a lot of money doesn’t mean you’re necessarily rich buddy. Loans and scholarships exist lol. I went to a private school that was 20k and my parents couldn’t afford it. It’s not her fault that her parents worked and found success lol
I purposely avoided following them on any platform and avoided any news about them and I’m just now seeing this video about who they are and what they do and I’m so glad I did because this is exactly what I expected from these people. Ugh boring
Its always extra annoying when an already privileged person is handed the world, while so many of us are killing ourselves to still be broke and struggling.
SHE'S ATTRACTIVE
My god is nobody else going to say it?! She's the popular girl in school that the guys want and the girls want to be (and let's not forget about creepy old men). A couple years in the future some talent agency will pick up the next attractive girl who relates better to a young audience, Charli will disappear, and the cycle repeats. Welcome to the industry.
Attractive + some type of talent + luck = success.
There you go any attractive girls watching, I just gave you the golden formula. (Perhaps this statement is ironic lol...)
Attractive and white*
I love how everyone is acting like they just can't figure out how she got famous. She's hot. That's it. That's all it takes for a woman to get attention. Be hot.
@benray8676 Unfortunately, yes. Sexual attraction is an infinitely stronger (and fundamentally more human) force than any interesting talent you can pick up. People will never acknowledge this out of fear of being rude, though. It's good business.
@@ironman1458 Just attractive*
Thank you for covering the D’Amelio’s, Patrick. There rise to fame was definitely super fast and Charli was exceptionally young when she saw that immense engagement. She’s no longer the face of TikTok now that the app is no longer dancing focused and more on skits. Still very interesting to see the relationship between Charli and Dixie as well since Dixie is clearly more devoted to the industries that she has tapped into
Whats crazy is that i know theres this tier of tiktok mega star who is super prevalent in news and media discussions but I've never once seen any of their videos show up on my fyp.
14 year old choreographer. That’s frickin AWESOME! What a total badass. Hope she got her credit after all. She definitely deserves it.
it felt like they were being pushed onto us like some new kardashian family
Hold on.. I’m really hung up on the fact she ate her nose gold on camera and In front of so many people so casually, do they all eat their own boogers..?
Snail from a f chef?? Gagging and throw up
Boogers from your f nose?? Obviously yummy...
I can't...
I want to say she had d some booger sugar she was trying to get rid of. It’s the only explanation that makes sense!
Fr like is no one talking about this? How casually a famous person can pick their nose on camera, in frot of their family and another famous person and eat it but no one bats an eye? 🧐
I think the only reason she gets actual hate is because she randomly became famous and people are jealous. Thats a majority. Maybe they deserve it mayber they dont but they arent bad people.
You have a well researched, journalistic style to your content, it’s refreshing and very interesting, i learn something new every time you drop something hot off the press. Thank you, and keep up the good work it’s inspiring and sets a solid work ethic for anyone curious about what it it takes to be a successful YT contributor.
“Why are they famous” is a question that can be asked about many people who are popular on social media.
She has handled the extreme hate gracefully, hell it’s not her fault she randomly blew up. The try hards are just as bad as her tik toks but she barely is trying
Idk bro the Walmart video was very weird and people can’t defend that. And seriously no one was talking about them for the past 2 years and they popped out of nowhere this year. I don’t think it’s the fans this time
