The fact that she befriended the family of a little boy who actually had an inoperable brain tumour, and used all of his symptoms, makes me sick.
My dad had jaw cancer, we had a argument and his cancer was spreading to his body, he got worse and he died. My last encounter with him was negative, I had so many questions for him and this evil woman lied about cancer I wish she was thrown in prison
How can someone lie about cancer??!!!! It's not like lying about having a cold or food poisoning, it's cancer!! That's just insensitive and cruel!!
It actually happens more than people realise!
christ man... We live in a world where people will kill your newborn baby for a new toothbrush...
This lie stands in for expressing an emotional pain ppl like her really feel, so they "translate" the intensity of pain into an illness and or traumatic event that the society can relate to.
I took care of a friend who has borderline disorder. She told everyone in the new town she had moved toward that she was raped for years by her father when she was young- only that this father doesnt exist or live in the same continent bc he left just after her birth and she grew up with a depressed ultra religious mother.
She missed her protective father and felt betrayed by him, and she translated that into "painful as a rape". Its not logical for normal ppl, but for mental ill ppl, its a way to compensate their pain with destructive ways.
She had schizophrenic episodes, loosing touch with reality, had huge credit card debt by age 19, quit high school, hang out with homeless teens, was promiscuit without proper protection, was pathological lying to get sympathy or just to shock ppl, she was manipulative.
I took her to psychiatry to get professional help.
It's worse than that. She's persuading people to abandon conventional medicine, to adopt her quack methods, and she did it for money.
I can't think of too many things more despicable than that.
@@beckysam3913 Good job she has a friend as good as you. Your name (Becky Sam) My name is Becky and my brother and father are called Sam xx
Belle is absolutely batshit crazy 😳
The way she's lying make one believe her brain is wired a different way.
NO. Don't let her hide behind a diminished responsibility. She's a scheming piece of dirt.
It’s worse. She knew what she was doing. And she got money and attention from it and lied.
She should be locked up for a long time there is no way of knowing how many people she hurt and cost them their health and it's always hard to get people to believe the have been conned because of the humiliation factor
I totally agree
natural selection - only the dumb fell for it. They don't have the intellect to survive in times of social network. Sad to say, but these are the people that are meant to die in our new world's jungle. You and I, for sure, we would never fall for such a cheap scam.
This makes me sick why would someone do this my dad has cancer it’s not right
As someone who actually DOES have an inoperable brain tumor, ( due to a genetic disorder called neurofibromatosis type 1) thankfully benign; this is infuriating to discover. My tumor has deformed my face and causes often unbearable migraines and has the potential to become MPNST ; and this twit gained fame and fortune off of pretending? What bull.
Its an insult to people who share my condition, and to those who actually have cancer. Why are they giving her even one second in the limelight? 🤬
It's quite clear that Belle wants money and fame. In the end she got what she wanted but she was exposed for faking cancer.
@The Freak On A Leash that's messed up. It just feeds their narcissism.
Unfortunately in this day and age there are many more just like her posing as influencers ,friends on the Internet this is such a big playground for scammers and liars .always question people's claims on the internet,especially if they are asking for or making cash .
If she lived anywhere else the money she stole would be stripped from her instead she has holidays in Africa etc and she still has got away with it
I've just watched the interview on 60 minutes and my head is mashed. don't even think she answered 1 question straight. she didn't even answer the question "how old are you" properly. she needs help
I kept thinking they were saying Mel Gibson
Same
"Are you saying that you're not sure that you got those other cancers? She said no"
Does this mean she isn't sure or she is sure?
Damn, I hate double/ambiguous negatives
She's a nonsense woman
The word “Not sure”
Belle said no.
That means she is sure.
It’s not that complex.
Anyone know what the music is from the opening seconds of the episode? It’s not listed on the BBC website.
It’s because people WANT to believe. Once you realize that 99% of the human brain is completely unconsciously driven a lot of things start to make a whole lot more sense
So true. The puzzle is why roughly half of us can think logically and it’s a toss-up whether the rest take a trip down the yellow brick road to delusion.
@@samsara7154 Do you think that there are some that view the world in even some other logical way and think we're also delusional, and they are not?
🤣
Too true!
I can’t watch the full version in Aus.
Anyone have a link to the full version?
Look up Belle Gibson 60minutes, there's also a behind the scenes interview with Tara Brown(60min)
So, when's she launching her religion?
She did. It was her book.
Belle Gibson. Mel Gibson? Alarm bells??
Not really... Belle is a complete other breed of evil.
What a complete disgrace she is should be in jail
Why hasn’t anyone done an in-depth documentary about who this person is? What is her real name and age? Belle Gibson, the name is so PR. Who are her parents?
Watch the Australian 60 Minutes interview with Tara Brown. The lies she spins are so pathetic she looks like a lunatic.
She has no contact with her mom, and I can understand why her family and mom wouldn’t want anything to do with her.
Maxine and Pixie should read into Ella Mills' (Deliciously Ella's) story!!
She should be in prison ! Lier
@Rocking ' N ' Rolling Maybe English isn't their first language, chill.
You should do a piece about Pete Evans, an Australian chef with a huge online following who is Paleo only pusher, anti-vaxxer, conspiracy theorist and COVID denier.
Or Mikhaila Peterson
Ew.
Can anyone else understand why she's not in jail?
Nope. It’s absolutely ridiculous that this woman wasn’t charged with fraud smh
She needs to be in an institution.
I actually heard someone call Trump the Belle Gibson of politics
Ur as delusional as she is..because biden is more like her ..lies lies lies and blames everyone else for the shit they put people through.
If you blindly believe a person you don´t know, it´s your own fault. You know there are people out there wich only want to be rich don´t matter what it costs. Even if it´s your own health.
Until you personally know what it is like to have a life threatening disease Candy Licker you will not know what it like for those who do? Some will grasp at anything to believe in to save their life. It can feel like a very dark alone and desperate feeling. Don't be so quick to judge those who are so very ill.
@@lovelyladyguido I think they are saying it is ridiculous to say this is true because this person is in the media or it's online.
Playbook of a pathological liar. Scary as hell.
After years of your whole foods regimen, the cancer spread throughout your whole body. Sounds great. Sign me up!
Words are very powerful and this young lady has pronounced terrible sickness on herself. Unfortunately, it is only a matter of time before her words manifest into reality. And no one will believe her. Very sad story; she needs psychiatric help.
A young woman lied to get attention and money???
Imagine my shock 😲 !
She didn't just lie. It is fraud.
She's good looking tho
I’m FINALLY GLAD that there is evidence IN at least ONE of these videos OF PEOPLE taking their side of the Responsibility FOR BEING GULLIBLE & feeling ‘STUPID’…….
As they did BLINDLY CHOOSE without CHECKING UP……TO BLINDLY FOLLOW & BLINDLY BELIEVE…..
So how did the one lady cure her cancer and how did the other lady lower her cholesterol?
Guess she didn't give birth to an alien after all........................................................lol
Disgusting woman, shame on her , no conscience what so ever !!!
She got rich from lying about a killer disease.... So why would she care about what ANYONE thinks about her right now?
Wokers need to realise that the world is not sunshine and lollypops.... Its actually full of awful people and A LOT of them are at the top of the ladder. How people got took in by this is unreal. Maybe im just not dumb enough to understand..... But influencers are exactly what they claim to be..... Influencers! Jees man
I don't feel sorry for those who trust their health with people they've never met.
People with chronic or terminal illnesses are often desperate. They are a fragile population and willing to try anything that could save them. I do feel sorry for them.
@@ThisUserPassedAway Yeh exactly. While I personally wouldn’t personally trust random social media users, his comment is a bit silly if you think about it. Literally the whole of modern society is based on trusting people you have never met and even legitimate modern medicine couldn’t exist if there wasn’t a level of trust people handed to doctors/scientists/medical experts/pharmacists they have never met before. To truly live by this rule you would have to totally remove yourself from normal society and live nomadically in a forest somewhere.
Shame on you Fury
Don't be so damn callous. Maybe you can tell me about the day a specialist sat you down and told you the worst.
For the ones actually ill (or with loved ones who are), I do. I give them a pass. The people who anger me in this case (and others) are the media people who report these stories as true, and the people who just want to believe that of course they know better than doctors so they hunt down stories like Belle’s and repeat them.
Look up Belle Gibson and the Oromo Community..this girl is looney tunes it seems.
Awkwaaaaard
Reminds me of another liar called Belle, Belle de Jour...
What she did is awful, no doubt. But I can't ignore that she's cute as a basket of kittens.
Creep
@@calontour Chris Watts is flooded with love letters from women after he murdered his wife and two daughters. My baby Belle just pretended to have cancer.
Perfect example of looks can be deceiving.
