(So sorry about the sound difference in the beginning, had to quiet the video because of copyright) I promise it gets better after his vlog! Do you think this cult is making 30 Seconds to Mars fans look bad? Or is it a way to build a community with their die hard fans? Would love to know what you think!
Honestly, I don't like this Jared Leto. I used to like him as an actor, A Requiem For A Dream is one of my fave movies of all time, but he seems like he's insane now, like he's on the verge of breakdown. Doesn't look good at all.
Hey Madison, I've noticed that your last few videos are not getting enough views. Do you know what happened? When I discovered you, your videos were all over my homepage, but now I only see them in my subscription tab (I don't do notifications). I see it is not just me, but the algorithm isn't showing them to many people. I'm asking if you know what is going on because I think your videos are top quality and would love it if you actually succeed on yt, and I feel bad you are suddenly not getting views, especially because you mentioned you lost one of your sources of income :( stay safe, ly! 🎈
Lol, there's a YA thriller (novel) that just came out called Solstice...just....check it out. I just read it a couple of weeks ago, and this just kinda gave me feelings 🤣🤣
I think the scarier cult following is Kanye. And now he's planning to run for president. Jared Leto's stuff is wacked out, but doesn't hurt anyone. Just die-hard fans paying too much to go to concerts. But Kanye's platforms so far are frightening and would affect all of our lives. He has enough die-hard followers to really affect all of our lives.
Um are you aware that "white knight" was the code for emergency that Jim Jones used at Jonestown .. the famous cult leader that committed mass suicide-murder on his members in the 70's.... it gave me the chills when he said that because I know he ment to make the connection if he's acting like a cult leader and that's just sick because that was a huge tragedy and absolutely awful for the people and family members involved...
From meeting him I would understand why he would be lonely. Super shitty attitude. I get that he had some pretty interesting achievements but the conceited attitude really killed it for me. Also from someone who worked backstage at one of their concerts the attitude thing was confirmed. He asked her to peel the skin off strawberries(like wtf) and then he didn’t like the way she did it cause they looked like mush…like d’ohhh for someone who likes to believe he is smart that’s just dumb.
Okay, Jared Leto calling for a “white night,” around 21:30 really makes me uncomfortable. For those who don’t know, Jim Jones called for “White Nights” frequently at Jonestown, where the cult would rehearse how to flee, fight, or commit revolutionary suicide. Twice they rehearsed the suicide while being convinced it was the real thing. And then of course there was the final white night when over 900 folks, including children, drank the cyanide-laced fruit drink and died. I get that Jared is trying to portray his fans as a cult for some stupid reason, but if he was intentionally referencing the last days of Jonestown in order to do that, it’s an incredibly disgusting tactic. I may be missing some other reference since I don’t know his music, but if you are going to play around with the idea of a cult, you really have to be aware of this.
Yes, that bothered me, too. If they were trying to make a joke, it was completely tasteless. For anyone who wants to know more, Casefile did a thorough three part episode on Jonestown. Bailey Sarian just released a video about it, too.
It also has SUPERRRRR racist undertones as well, given that in all the videos/photos shown in the video, there’s few to any people of color shown at the Mars Camp/Island events
@@erikdaniels0n There are not people of color because are intuition speaks to us to stay away from things like this. Jonestown was the first thing to pop in my head when I saw this. I like their music but not enough to bow down and worship them.
Jared Leto started a cult over quarantine. Meanwhile, I forgot what the concept of time was and ended up spending three days straight in my room, not talking to my family, because I hyperfocused on what I was doing.
Me, losing my 61 yr old father in the same hospital I worked as a RN in. Then, weeks later having to work Father’s Day bc we didn’t have enough staff to keep people ALIVE. Ellen and Jared? Made asses out of themselves trying to “relate” to their “fans” when it’s obvious they talk so much because they love the sound of their own voice. Talking about freaking meditation like it was saving actual lives in the height of the pandemic while also “thanking” all us normal ol’ lowly healthcare workers that they couldn’t look down more on if they tried to. 😡🙄👩🏻⚕️🤔🥴🤬😷🤧☠️
So I was a HUGE fan of 30 Seconds to Mars when they first came out. I went to shows at smaller venues before they got big and they stayed small for some time, mainly because Jared would not promote the band while doing his acting thing (and vice versa). It was very easy to meet them after shows and have a good chat. There was a joke in the earlier days saying "Yes, this is a cult", because it was so small and the fandom (the Echelon) was really connected online. It was essentially no different than a lot of other bands having nicknames for fans and street teams. Obviously, with most male bands, girls swoon over the guys. They've always had a significantly large female audience, and A LOT of middle aged women. When they started getting big, they began doing these little camps and it was clearly a way to get money out of the women who OBSESS over Jared and his brother Shannon. At this point, they stopped meeting fans after shows, they were just too big, so these retreats were essentially the only chance to meet them. I think they prey on that female obsession to connect with them. It honestly makes me think of comic cons too (would be a great video topic!) I really think it's one reason he hasn't ever acknowledged he's been in a longterm relationship for like six years. No one knows who she is really, and he acts single and very flirty with fans. I think Jared's ego fuels it all and it's a manipulative money-grab. To say fans can sleep in your tent, or you get some overtly intimate experience - it's predatory.
Totally agree on the predatory aspect, and thank you for sharing that important info! I had no idea about the early beginnings of 30 seconds to Mars and that definitely helps make more sense of where they are now!
Middle of the night, "Someone's breaking into the tent!" Shines flashlight and sees an alligator tearing at the canvas door! "Oh thank God, I thought it was Jared Leto!" LOLOL
This guy tried to sleep with me when I was underage and actually dressed up as him at one of his concerts (I did such a good job a bunch of people at the gig thought I was him). I was saved by a security guard who physically took me away from Leto and asked my age then made sure I got out and away okay. The guy is a massive creep and always has been. The fact that he gets away with this to this day is so wron
I worked at a concert venue once when his band had a show.. Yes, he is a creep. During the meet and greet/ photo Op, he, and only he, was touching and pulling at and grabbing at CLEARLY underage girls, or close enough that you should question it, saying things pretty borderline inappropriate as well. When his people and security would see it, they would just move the girls along.
The underage this is obviously creepy, but you were dressed up as him and he did this?! WHAT LMAO??? That’s somehow so hilarious and bizarre, but not shocking 🤣
good god this guy is a true f:ing creep 🤬🤬😤 i am so sorry that happened to you, and i hope he have bad things aka a court date and jail time in his future. 🤬 you are strong for writing this comment! wishing you all the best
Also you can go on meditation retreats where you don't speak a word so you learn to be comfortable with silence and your thoughts and your body and the world around you, building awareness. You can meditate and still be vain. It doesn't change your inner personality, just your awareness.
also you can go on lovely retreats with quiet and maybe some yoga, and it doesn't COST THIS MUCH!!! I mean, if you want to make sure that everyone around you is from the same socio economic group, which is WHITE AND RICH, then go to this. If you want some real quiet and time to think, enjoy the beauty of nature, and dress in comfy clothing.....heck the Quakers are nice and offer some cheap retreats and won't push any religion on you....but they won't ensure you won't accidentally meet and minorities or poor people.
if it has no affect on you, then you doing it wrong - meditation is a philosophy and the way to find your true self, not this lifestyle nonsense, you can't meditate like you're going to starbucks (which is also just a pile of **** btw.) but that's what the "west" is simply not getting
I cried happy tears when I was exhausted after an overnight shift and stayed up about 36 hours. I was delirious and I saw a picture of a cute frog, one of the big chubby ones and he was itching his little chubby sides with his leg. I cried for ten minutes at that video before immediately crashing 😭
I've been to the Kornati islands in Croatia and if you can make it there are way more fun things to do than... whatever this thing is. Highly recommended.
Hahahaha joke's on you fans! Joker's greed hair gang! People wonder how vampires would live in our age, Jared's got all the answers for you, for the price 999,99$ 😘
I used to like 30 seconds to Mars, until I heard Jared basically say "I don't owe my fans anything. They're not the reason I'm successful." Saw the clip forever ago so not a direct quote but that really rubbed me the wrong way. Obviously some fans are totally out of line and expect special treatment because they bought an album but to say you don't owe your fans anything/they didn't contribute to your band's success at all is absurd and so dismissive to fans.
He is telling you the truth! He knows that Hollywood makes you or breaks you, not fans. He is part of his cult named Hollywood. They are all warlocks and witches.
I met him once on Broadway in Seattle. This was around the time of Prefontaine, so near the beginning of his career. He seemed so annoyed that my friends & I had recognized him and sharply corrected us because we pronounced his name wrong. We quickly got the picture that he didn't want to talk to us. My friend wanted to buy a disposable camera to go back and get a picture, but we shut her down.
I remember writing* a very cringy fanfic about the band forming their own self-sufficient community/cult in a post-apocalyptic world, and it was less scary than this. *When I was 15
@@mariaquiet6211 I lost interest on chapter 3 xD Didn't write any ceremony, white or any other color. Unless "white night" is a slang for something else...
I cried tears of happiness when I came out as gay to my brother and he said, "I will always love and support you, even if our parents won't." I had wanted to come out for years but had been terrified.
Jared Leto is a strange, strange man. I group him in the same category as Tony Robbin, Shane Dawson, and Jeffrey Star who all give me creepy, uncomfortable, narcissist vibes.
I mean to be completely fair, Jared Leto has never kissed a minor and uploaded the video nor has he said he's jerked off on his cat, but the creepy and narcissist vibes are very much there lol.
I followed them until A Beautiful Lie album. After that their music kinda changed...? Some people liked this change, but not me... :( Plus Matt and later Tomo left the band, so for me 30STM is not the same anymore.
@@dcoci make rice? You mean getting the grains and roasting/shelling them? The rice he had in the photos wasn't wild rice it seemed already processed. You don't make rice, you grow it!
You have seriously never experienced happy tears? It’s usually a profound emotional experience that causes it, but I cannot imagine Jared Leto ever being a reason for such a sacred emotion.
@@PrincessKLS Only Kanye's legitimately planning to run for president using a super fundamentalist platform, and he has enough of a following to affect the outcome of the election.
Why on earth bring skin colour in to it? Why not just say a mediocre man? Imagine someone saying that about another race. Think about that and the uproar there would be
@@MajoCardona Not in England they don't, I've had 2 black managers, many of the successful highly paid footballers are black, plus musicians, teachers, doctors, television presenters etc. No one is being held back. This is 2021. Listen to the words of Morgan Freeman on this, also look up Coleman Hughes on here. This privilege stuff is not a thing, consider the trailer parks of poor white folk, inequality doesn't have a skin colour. Let's stop talking about skin colour anyway, we are all human beings. I take people as I find them, there is good and bad in all races and nationalities. Let's work together, don't let those at the top divide us
I thought the same. You are not being inclusive or welcoming of Mexicans if you just want us to go to be your cheap labor/servants , which is kinda what he is implying
the only time i experienced happy tears was when i got out of the operating room for top surgery and i just kept crying and the nurse was concerned and i just said that im happy i was waiting for that surgery for years and just knowing that i finally escaped from that crippling chest dysphoria was some strong emotions haha
Oh my gosh, I had almost the same experience, but it was when my bandages and binder were first taken off. I'm a miserable mess everytime I come out from anesthesia.
Ah congratulations, that was so good to hear (or well, read)! I had a different type of transition surgery and though I didn't cry because of it I was in a shitload of pain and definitely not happy :P. It's still funny to see people having my old name as their (possible) new one :P.
Jared Leto is nuts lol, a friend of mine got back stage passes to some music fest & 30 seconds to Mars was there & the security had to warn her “you can talk to anybody except Jared Leto. Don’t speak to him unless spoken to” & this was in like. The mid early 2000s so Leto wasn’t even a super commonly known name yet.
Eeeew... I worked on security and bon Jovi members each had a blacked out limo to take them a five second trip. Everyone was told that they must not make eye contact 😂 some ppl are just stereotypical narcissists lol! 🤣💩
@@Camille_Anderson I have met Jon multiple times (I grew up in the town he lives in) he and his wife are absolute sweet hearts and he does sooo much with charities in NJ and meets fans constantly. But I think at some times it is a security or timing issue if they had to get there another way they would be swamped with fans.
@@itskaybe6348 I'm so glad about that, cos I'm a huge, huge fan & always have been! 💯❤️ so it hurts a little to witness it, but honestly, it was a nightmare! But when u work at shows u see a side that's different - , it's an incredibly long day when performing - travelling, rehearsing, performing & finally decompressing! I believe we should cut them some slack at times😘
bands with hardcore fanbases that respect their fans and see them as individual people who truly love their work do not need to manufacture “devotion” or ask their fans to get tattoos etc and the fact that thirty seconds to mars/jared leto have to manufacture that kind of intense love is really telling
Yes but celebs are only are as big as their fans make them to be. The fans who are overwhelmingly female know what they are signing up for and spend thousands to do it. Nobody is making them follow him. Women who have money to spend on a celeb are not victims.
Plum… They’re not victims yet. Yet. An old friend was an entrepreneur & he had a strange obsession with trump. He signed up for trump “university” and he wasn’t a victim either. Until he became a victim. His savings account was drained & he had to join a class action to get pennies back. If Leto’s cult/grift processed, there will definitely be victims. Another example/parallel with Leto & trump is him buying the teen beauty pageant. The contestants & parents were thrilled that a big shot rich celeb showed up to save the pageant & score a tv deal. Then word spread that trump would walk from dressing room to dressing room peering in on the girls while they changed clothes. And suddenly there were victims. These dudes are sociopathic.
Don't compare them to Trump. Trump is a hardcore cold narcissist who demands ppl look up to him. He's a lot like Jim Jones and Putin. He doesn't even care about his own kids, Sick
"We need more of them" He ONLY said that because he's using them as labor. He's against the wall because then they would have to pay mandatory regulated employees. He didn't treat them like they were welcomed just because they are humans for their own dreams and purposes. But just for more workers. That was so gross
I actually enjoyed his Joker, but there wasn’t anything to really grasp about him. I thought the “gangster” version of Joker would be cool, but it just wasn’t represented very much. Blah, he’s weird.
He is the Joker naturally. He did not have to act, he just became the real him. This "nice, calm, all collected" persona is being acted by Joker for the masses.
It's even worse when you think like... a lot of people who started getting into this band were also into a lot of bands in the "emo/alternative" scene. A lot of these people were misunderstood teens that felt lonely and they got a feeling of community and being heard with bands like these. Jared Leto is taking advantage of vulnerable or once-vulnerable people that of course will be more easily swayed into this ridiculous cult thing. It's really sad.
@@bananabrain2996 Not always, especially if they ended up as adults who are doing okay for themselves. There's a lot of factors that can contribute to someone feeling like an outcast and result in looking to an idol for total reassurance.
@@bananabrain2996 Trust fund babies will. A good example of this is "The Club Kids" of the late 80' early 90's. A lot of them were eccentric teens or early 20 somethings that didn't feel they fit in with society, that also had rich parents.
Im Flying I was being ironic. The point was that the Christian dogma spread the message that anything that is not christian is satanic. That involves other religions, belief systems, philosophies and ESPECIALLY pre-christian pagan beliefs. Jared has tattoos with symbols that are included in these different systems. Does that mean they are satanic? Not really. To Christianity even astrology is forbidden and considered satanic, because it is based on pagan belief systems. Maybe you should cultivate yourself and read some actual books on history of religions and civilization. I warn you though- it will burst your little bubble.
Im Flying I understand, but by naming those so called symbols satanic you seemed to not really know what they are about. Pagan or occult sciences are not satanic in the sense that they don’t worship Satan , but christianity names them so because they don’t worship their god, which is Jehovah. In the book of Job it is implied that God and satan actually communicate and “collaborate” almost in a bet-like way. Satan means adversary in literal translation, not “evil” necessarily. You said Jared has demons with him lol. That sounded pretty much like christian brainwash to me. Anyways ,religion is too huge of a discussion to have here. Glad you are open and try to judge for yourself different teachings and philosophies. 😊
When he tells everyone at camp Mars to"make sure you leave your doors unlocked, never know who's going to pay you a visit." Feels like he's going into his fans tents at night and I get like a NXIVM vibe from Jared Leto in that statement
@@LostButBroken 😤🤬i was actually getting a shiver when hearing him say that sentence so i am not that surprised he has allegations towards him, however i am still repulsed
This is yet another example of how out of touch with reality and how delusional certain celebrities become/are. They truly live in their own little bubble/world and we’re just mere guests in it.
Someone from Croatia commenting and we definitly don't want him here lol. I honestly think he is just super cringe worthy and sometimes thinks too highly of himself. Just because you won an Oscar and are successful musician and businessman doesn't mean you are above everyone else and you can treat people badly(and honestly like a creep especially towards young girls). He should be respected but at the same time he should humble himself and maybe reflect on some on his behaviours.
Totally agree, I think that’s a very well balanced perspective on Jared Leto himself, and I worry about the resources of a small island with such a large crowd out there for such a short amount of time! Hope that doesn’t hurt the people and surrounding communities!
Damn it, this cult like behaviour is very creepy allready but his reference jokes about "white nights" and other Jim Jones/Jonestown stuff is alarming and a desert island looks like a perfect location for a mass murder/suicide...Please, stay away Leto!
and he won the Oscar by playing a transwoman in a role most of the trans community was upset about for a variety of reasons, including his casting in the first place. as a trans person, even that accomplishment feels tainted to me.
I know this is the least of his problems but: Normal people: *making sourdough bread, planting their own organic gardens, and teaching their kids carpentry* Jared: "I learned how to make rice. Worship me"
I'm rewatching your old videos, and hearing "Welcome back to my blue kitchen" again made me smile! Glad you're still posting and doing well, I love your content!
I was unaware of all these things, all I knew is there were old people buying Jared Leto portraits thinking he was Jesus and praying to him, and thought "That's a mood".
Anyone feel like Jared Letos giving off Charles Manson vibes in his all white dress thing? (Jared Leto please don’t sue me, I’m poor, I’m not a rich boss babe ☹️😂)
Totally aging. Look at the crinkles around his eyes and between them. The older he gets, the more deepset his eyes become. Also, genetics, diet, and money do amazing things.
Rebecca Stelling you have to admit, Jared Leto’s Jesus complex is pretty creepy. Even if this is just a marketing ploy, it makes him look like a douche
Award for worst joker, award for most handsome cult leader? I can give him those I suppose. But while their music is fine, it ain't the best, nor is his acting, nor is his personality. Few people actually win meaningful awards, why spend a spot on Jared Leto of all people, he's got enough.
Believe it or not 4 corners in southwest of USA used to be part of Mexico....and theres old maps of 4 corners Aztlan being original home of Aztecs in particular.....I wouldnt have believed this til my awakening. They were told to go southward and the USA wanted California,Arizona,Texas territory.
“White night” is a reference to Jonestown 🥴🥴🥴 as in the Jonestown massacre. A “white night” was a code word for a night when they would rehearse a mass suicide.
@@29mim no you’re being absolutely naïve!! That’s a real saying from a mass tragedy…sooo why would he chose to say that?! Let alone make a home out of it??! Nobody is reaching for anything here! You’re refusing to look at the truth
I have never felt more embarrassed for anyone as much as I do for the people that actually went and cheered and hollered for a guy who literally can't say anything insightful.
It sounds like he's making fun of his own fans, toying with his own fame, and enjoying watching his fans be his dancing, money paying, puppets. Not a regular cult, but a social joke where everyone in on it is the punchline.
It is not his fault. People need to snap out of this "fan culture" and start living their own lives. Why would anybody worship anther wretched human being?!
There were times when I cried from happiness too. Like watching my daughter being happy in her birthday, when someone gives you a toughtful gift, even with books-series-artists I like
People cry tears of happiness when they finally see their family member after being deployed for a long time. But yeah I do thing 30 Seconds to Mars is making their fans look bad. Like really why would someone need to create something like this? It’s just creepy to me.
I cried at my wedding (along with my husband, my mother and my sister). I've seen several people cry at their or their loved ones' weddings. I saw a beloved, working-class figure in my community cry when receiving an award as recognition of her devotion and hard work. I've seen my mom cry when I was a small child and would give her homemade gifts. Sometimes I cry just our of a feeling of fulfillment (usually wrt my marriage). Of course all sorts of people process emotion differently, but it's interesting to me to hear that this isn't a part, even just a tiny part, of some other people's lives.
@@jubs96 That, and I also just cry tears of joy now because I have gone through some really tough stuff. So now, when I see joyful moments, I am just so happy to be witnessing or experiencing something great. I almost always happy cry for other people, but I've cried for myself a few times too, including when I got the full ride scholarship I needed in order to go to the school that put me on my career path.
@@CherryBlossomBlyue Midsommer is a real thing that happens in some countries which a celebration in the middle of the summer, Midsommar is a the comment is talking about and is a horror movie inspired by Midsommers but with the cult element to it
I kinda fell down a rabbit hole about the Manson family, and let me tell you, it's making me look at this cult in a reeeally creepy light. The use of the word family, the abundance of young free spirited women and the occasional hippie bro, the isolated "we know the secrets" mentality - they're all looking mighty familiar. I don't want them exploiting their fans for money, but if that's the only thing Leto and co. are after, there's at least a shred of comfort in that.
18-25 is normal for an attractive old 48 yo dude that looks 20 yrs younger than his peers. Everyone makes fun of Keanu reeves gf for precisely that reason. They expect him to be with someone who looks much younger and hotter bc he looks like that. (Im a fan of neither. Im just saying what i see). But if Jared is dating CHILDREN like that other commenter is saying, then he needs the electric bathtub. Jail, no probation.
The crying from Joy is definitely a real thing! Not everyone expresses joy that way, but I’ve also seen the flipside where a person is so sad or angry that they just break into uncontrolled laughter
Dude at my highschool, he got in a lot of fights, would get so angry he would cry. He could throw hands but was crying the whole time. Feels like a metaphor or a reflection of inner conflict.
Laughing can happen when a person is really stressed out and overwhelmed. It can also be a response to feeling uncomfortable and awkward, especially women who have been taught that showing anger is unacceptable can react with smiling and laughter in situations where they feel cornered/threatened or uncomfortable. Laughing can happen after serious sexual assault or other traumas and then it’s the body’s way of trying to calm itself down. And of course you can cry because something good has happened. Then there can be things like relief, gratitude, feeling moved etc mixed in.
He had a round face when he was younger so that probably worked in his favor later on. I know this because “The kill” popped up on my RUclips feed and in the video he still had a baby face at age 30
what sorta bothers me that there has been years of allegation against Jared for sleeping with his underage fans ( along with so many of the emo bands of the mid 2000s, a few currently in jail) that keeps getting squashed down and forgotten by the fans and the band. There were too many similar accounts for it to not be any investigation and it really left a bad vibe. Amazing video as always. I was right there cringing with you haha.
Oh wow. I didn’t even know of this and I spent hours and hours researching him and the band... that’s so frustrating and I definitely would have said something about it if I knew 😕😔
Cruel World Happy Mind yep! They get well buried but come back up every once in a while. He has even been called out by his peers about this. Me too will hopefully catch up with him soon.
I went to their concert in 2014 (shortly before my 14th birthday)... someone from 30STM's team came up to me with an offer to do some face paintings for fans. I did it and in exchange I got an upgraded ticket to be on the stage with the band during the whole concert. I stood next to Tomo (now a former member of the band) and I must say he was actually so nice. He talked to us all the time (during breaks between songs). To me, it was one of the best experiences and I will be forever thankful for it. I understand that business is a business (the band made a really good documentary called Artifact where they explain how the music industry works). HOWEVER, I feel like the money aspect really distanced me and not only me from the band. They are simply overpriced for not too much. The price of the ticket for their show is fine, but the show really lacks its former quality (look at the reviews). Now it all seems like "you want us? Pay couple thousand dollars, otherwise we won't even talk to you". Such a pity. Btw. I wonder if this new money attitude had anything to do with Tomo leaving the band.
I wonder if maybe Tomo was against it, and after bickering he left, and the reasonable person telling them not to do this stuff was no longer in the way? It's a bit of a chicken/egg thing, Not sure which led to which, but I can't imagine it's unrelated. Also, your 2014 experience sounds really cool and I'm glad they did that for you.
30stm is one of the beat bands,its not like other bands,i never been in their concert yet but when i saw them i feel like im in there too,its so beautiful ans btw Tomo is a nice guys and i felt sad when he left the band🔺
did he just say white night when he was talking to his fans? as in what Jim jones would say over the loudspeaker to gather everyone for his rehearsals? I know he's actively trying to make this seem as much like a cult as possible but could he leave out the references to mass su*cide maybe?
I was searching a Ted-Ed video about cults and this videos after the Jim Jones DEATH TAPE. I was really confused as of why until I heard the “white night” thing
As a die hard fan I used to be, I can surely confirm that this whole thing is not a cult. Ever since 2006 the band has joked over it, and saying "yes, this is cult" is part of the joke. People thought that just because there were hidden symbols and messages in the albums, was enough reason to think 30STM was starting a cult, but it's fake hahaha. The main reason why I stopped following this band is because they actually stopped to care about their fans, they just ceased to be important for them (when the whole concept of the band was the exact opposite), suddenly the prices for their merch went stupidly high and it quickly became a band for rich people. Literally speaking. It's like if you have no money, then you're absolutely not worth of their attention in any case. Jared's attitude began to suck ass. For that, I totally agree that he's a narcissist creep. I realized this short after he won his Oscar award. Now he totally acts like he's a divinity on earth as if people is not paying incredible amounts of money just to get a chance to meet him. That to me, is creepy enough, without mentioning this whole "cult" thing. I can't stand this guy, and I'm very sorry for that. He used to be very different from the person he is today. Maybe he was acting hahaha but at least, that Jared character used to be way more charming and simpler than this narcissistic weird gucci dude he's now.
Tbh I mentally cancelled Jared Leto the moment the Suicide Squad cast came out with what an asshole he was to them, but h‘oh boy this is really just the icing on the cake.
Any regular human has a bad day its brushed off & unfortunately famous ppl have ppl constantly taking pictures,ppl prying in their lives. It would be so hard to be super happy every single day. They have good days & bad just like everyone else & I don't care who you are if you absolutely love a certain famous person you would definitely jump at the chance to spend any amount of time being close to that person if you have the means & the way. I think its really cool he put himself out there to get close to the fans like that. If I didn't live on the east coast & would have known who knows I probably would have jumped at the chance. I think ppl are reading far more in to this then what it looks like but to each their own!.
Really?! I’ve met him in 2006 when the band wasn’t very well known in Germany yet and Jared was super nice. The whole band was signing autographs after the show until everyone that wanted an autograph had one (it was a show with 2500 people) and Jared was super friendly and asked me if I enjoyed the show and thanked me for coming. Fast forward to 2010 and going to another show & meeting his brother after the show... asked him if he could take a picture with me since I was having surgery the next day and it would lift my spirits (he had a “no photos only autographs” policy at that point) and he actually accused me of lying about having surgery to get a “sympathy photo”. I was so pissed and shocked. I had never been treated this badly by any musician and I’ve met lots (Slash & Dave Grohl being some of the super famous ones) My friends who were at the show with me even told him I wasn’t lying about the surgery, but he didn’t care. Needless to say I stopped being a fan of the band that night. I just couldn’t support a band that would treat people so badly.
13:20 *TO ANSWER THAT QUESTION YOU ASKED (**13:16**) Madison,* _I've cried tears of happiness_ -- complete and utter joy, gratitude or mirth -- before... but only on a handful of occasions!!
I think a lot of the old-school This Is War era fans dipped out after Camp Mars... I know I started to get weird vibes once they started charging such high prices for M&G. Thirty Seconds to Mars will always have a place in my heart, their music got me through a few really rough years, and "Yes, this is a cult" was a sort of in-joke in the fandom. But it's taken a weird turn in the past few years... Edit side-note: I cried tears of happiness watching the Disney World fireworks my first night as a cast member ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
Old-school 30 Seconds to Mars fan here; that's exactly what I did. It got genuinely sketchy, way beyond the point of normal bands joking with their fans.
Sooooo many women who have met him say the same thing. Then when I met him I ended up having the same exact story. I was working at the Playboy Mansion (a long time ago) taking photos and I saw all kinds of amazing celebrities ( Neil Patrick Harris, I am looking at you!) Jared Leto came dressed as a Catholic Priest. My job was to take photos of people next to life sized cardboard cut outs of Hugh and his Bunnies. All you had to do was come in, take a photo and come back in an hour after we print them out. There was a long line. But Jared would not get in front of the camera. He just stared at me and stood in various spots in the room. Everywhere else except in front of the damn camera. It got uncomfortable. I knew he wouldn't do anything since men pay $1,500 to be there and are ejected the minute any female complains against them (including me). His friend really wanted to stay at the party so he started asking Jared to get a move on. Total creep. He just stands and stares at whatever female is in the room (trust me, the cardboard cut outs were a thousand times better looking than me, he was NOT hitting on me). The only people I know who do this are on the Autism spectrum (not an insult, it's just something to think about).
He wasn't staring at you in the same way autists might, he was staring at you as if you were prey. If you're a woman and working at the PB mansion, you are conventionally attractive, he was probably waiting for you to throw yourself at him.
@@user-hanging-at-the-hanged-man i think it was more some of their habits can be perceived as creepy. My brother is on the spectrum, and he does just space out and stare sometimes (at me, someone visiting, the wall, etc) and yeah. Its weird sometimes, especially if you happen to be doing something else and eventually notice. Then its like, how long have you been doing that? And they don't know either.
Honestly I would imagine a lot of people would be pretty akward at the party at the Playboy Mansion. You said that his friend wanted to be there, maybe Jared Leto himself didn't? I don't know but this kind of situation would make a lot of people feel pretty weird. If he is on a spectrum he might have it harder to mask it.
Madison: this video is not a Jared Leto is a 'bad person video... but Me: he's a bad person He called me and my sister jackasses for leaving his concert before his last song played. It was outdoors, raining, cold, and I (15 at the time) was starting to get hypothermia. Lips blue, shaking etc. Also, his concerts are awkward as hell. Half the time he doesnt even sing hes just like "everyone, reach for the sky and grab the clouds. Listen to the heavens. Listen to the planets. They are calling your name" like he took one too many dr*gs
He doesn’t take drugs at all, he lives a very clean life and I’ve been to numerous 30 seconds to Mars concerts and they were amazing, full of energy no weird things going on but guess we all have different experiences
erica Nicole - yeah, I’ve been to two of their concerts and it was like any other concert I’ve ever been to. Nothing like the OP’s. So I’m confused. Lol.
@@xhappyponyxwasmyoldname1395 I wish I were lying. I was a huge 30stm fan back in the day. When my sister told me she had bought tickets, I started sobbing over the phone. Whenever I saw them live, though... I kinda got annoyed about how Leto was acting on stage, but it was my first concert that wasn't TSO or a Christian festival (oof) so I assumed all musicians were completely different live. Then he decided to call us jackasses whenever I was literally in pain from being so cold. I had never been that angry before. 30stm was one of the first bands my sister and I bonded over and we were both crushed by the way he reacted to us leaving before the last song in the set. If it hadn't have been for that experience, I'd probably still be listening to 30stm everyday, but I haven't listened to them ever since. I also didn't go to another concert for years after that bc I expected all artists would be major d*cks the entire time and I didn't want to shell out copious amounts of money to experience that. The only good memories I got from that concert was spending time with my sister who was currently in college, and having my 10th grade English teacher saying "holy shit, he said that to you guys?!" Whenever I told him about it at the end of the school year. He also said the concert sucked and he was pissed off that Leto was basically just saying "reach for the sky" the entire time
I won two tickets for 30 seconds to Mars show a few years back and went to see them. I was very excited as I knew some of their songs and liked them. Cut to the concert and my fantasy was shattered. The whole stage was set off weirdly, Jared was front and centre while the other two band members were in the back facing each other instead of the audience. Jared came out like some sort of saviour and it ticked me off. Then he started singing and oh lord Jesus he was really really off-key. Like, unbearably off-key. He was so narcissistic, the imagery on the big screen was weird, and the crowd around me looked like in trance. I left in the middle of the concert, couldn't take it anymore. The vibe was off, like there was some sort of hypnosis or something going on, made my hair stand up. So I just left the venue. I was listening to some women later who were die-hard fans and they went to their concert for the 7th or something time. They had tattoos of the logo on their bodies, a lot of memorabilia...and they were in their 40s! How could they not hear him sing like shit is beyond me!
@@lynnettejanuzi hm...I had some videos of him singing (when it came to acoustic part), I wanted to show them to my brother who also liked their music. He was shocked when he heard him 😆 Not sure I have them anymore. That was around 7 to 8 years ago. I have never left a concert early before or after that. Just this one. And I had to wait two hours to get back to the bus and drive from Munich to Slovenia. All in all a lot of driving for a shitty concert.
Just saw their new video come out 'Hail to the Victor'. I personally didn't like it, but it's got a definite 'CULT' appeal to it. If that's what they were aiming for...they nailed it. I was considering going to the Croatia one this year but definitely NOT now.
I cried happy tears when we adopted our girl from a shelter and on the way to her forever home she licked my face, put her head in my lap and fell asleep. That was after losing my doggie soulmate a week prior.
@@cruelworldhappymind Girl, it took me by surprise. I am not a cryer, I think it was just so emotionally charged because I was still grieving my Parker and at the same time I had this new beautiful soul letting me know that it was all going to be o.k. And as long as you have felt that type of happiness, peace and joy, who cares if there is some water involved?! 😉We are all different so are our emotions and reactions to them.
Kat Pacho that is beautiful! I know how you feel, & the fact you can open your heart after a huge loss is awesome! 💯 I wept with joy when the vet called us to say our boy didn't have cancer, when days before we were told he was dying. Every day after that was a blessing. Four years later, he passed away, but I've never known such pain. Dad passed in April, & I knew he was going to meet him & he'd take care of him. Hope you & Ur family have years of joy together! We have a cat now, bullies us but hey, it's ok lol! I wish u happiness and health! Sorry for rambling 💯🙏
2 years ago I watched a suicide squad interview where the man interviewing Jared Leto was treating him like a God. I had a feeling at that time that he was something other than what he portrays.
(So sorry about the sound difference in the beginning, had to quiet the video because of copyright) I promise it gets better after his vlog!
Do you think this cult is making 30 Seconds to Mars fans look bad? Or is it a way to build a community with their die hard fans? Would love to know what you think!
Honestly, I don't like this Jared Leto. I used to like him as an actor, A Requiem For A Dream is one of my fave movies of all time, but he seems like he's insane now, like he's on the verge of breakdown. Doesn't look good at all.
Hey Madison, I've noticed that your last few videos are not getting enough views. Do you know what happened? When I discovered you, your videos were all over my homepage, but now I only see them in my subscription tab (I don't do notifications). I see it is not just me, but the algorithm isn't showing them to many people. I'm asking if you know what is going on because I think your videos are top quality and would love it if you actually succeed on yt, and I feel bad you are suddenly not getting views, especially because you mentioned you lost one of your sources of income :( stay safe, ly! 🎈
Lol, there's a YA thriller (novel) that just came out called Solstice...just....check it out. I just read it a couple of weeks ago, and this just kinda gave me feelings 🤣🤣
I think the scarier cult following is Kanye. And now he's planning to run for president. Jared Leto's stuff is wacked out, but doesn't hurt anyone. Just die-hard fans paying too much to go to concerts. But Kanye's platforms so far are frightening and would affect all of our lives. He has enough die-hard followers to really affect all of our lives.
Um are you aware that "white knight" was the code for emergency that Jim Jones used at Jonestown .. the famous cult leader that committed mass suicide-murder on his members in the 70's.... it gave me the chills when he said that because I know he ment to make the connection if he's acting like a cult leader and that's just sick because that was a huge tragedy and absolutely awful for the people and family members involved...

I’m now convinced that Jared is just lonely and made a cult just to talk to people. He’s so awkward
He has his MASSIVE ego to keep him company!
Thats sad
From meeting him I would understand why he would be lonely. Super shitty attitude. I get that he had some pretty interesting achievements but the conceited attitude really killed it for me. Also from someone who worked backstage at one of their concerts the attitude thing was confirmed. He asked her to peel the skin off strawberries(like wtf) and then he didn’t like the way she did it cause they looked like mush…like d’ohhh for someone who likes to believe he is smart that’s just dumb.

Lmmfaooooo are you speaking from experience?
Okay, Jared Leto calling for a “white night,” around 21:30 really makes me uncomfortable. For those who don’t know, Jim Jones called for “White Nights” frequently at Jonestown, where the cult would rehearse how to flee, fight, or commit revolutionary suicide. Twice they rehearsed the suicide while being convinced it was the real thing. And then of course there was the final white night when over 900 folks, including children, drank the cyanide-laced fruit drink and died. I get that Jared is trying to portray his fans as a cult for some stupid reason, but if he was intentionally referencing the last days of Jonestown in order to do that, it’s an incredibly disgusting tactic. I may be missing some other reference since I don’t know his music, but if you are going to play around with the idea of a cult, you really have to be aware of this.
Yes, that bothered me, too. If they were trying to make a joke, it was completely tasteless. For anyone who wants to know more, Casefile did a thorough three part episode on Jonestown. Bailey Sarian just released a video about it, too.
@@LittleMissLion Stephanie Harlowe has a multi-part series on the Jim Jones massacre too! I thought she did a good job, if you're interested in it. 💜
It also has SUPERRRRR racist undertones as well, given that in all the videos/photos shown in the video, there’s few to any people of color shown at the Mars Camp/Island events
@@erikdaniels0n There are not people of color because are intuition speaks to us to stay away from things like this. Jonestown was the first thing to pop in my head when I saw this. I like their music but not enough to bow down and worship them.
Erik Danielson Yeah I’m a past 30 Seconds to Mars fan who’s a POC. We don’t join this crazy shit lmao
Jared Leto started a cult over quarantine. Meanwhile, I forgot what the concept of time was and ended up spending three days straight in my room, not talking to my family, because I hyperfocused on what I was doing.
Yes…same.
I can attest that the cult definitely started much earlier than Covid but definitely hit it's peak over quarantine
Hyperfocused on what? Masturbation?
Me, losing my 61 yr old father in the same hospital I worked as a RN in. Then, weeks later having to work Father’s Day bc we didn’t have enough staff to keep people ALIVE.
Ellen and Jared? Made asses out of themselves trying to “relate” to their “fans” when it’s obvious they talk so much because they love the sound of their own voice. Talking about freaking meditation like it was saving actual lives in the height of the pandemic while also “thanking” all us normal ol’ lowly healthcare workers that they couldn’t look down more on if they tried to.
😡🙄👩🏻⚕️🤔🥴🤬😷🤧☠️
So I was a HUGE fan of 30 Seconds to Mars when they first came out. I went to shows at smaller venues before they got big and they stayed small for some time, mainly because Jared would not promote the band while doing his acting thing (and vice versa). It was very easy to meet them after shows and have a good chat. There was a joke in the earlier days saying "Yes, this is a cult", because it was so small and the fandom (the Echelon) was really connected online. It was essentially no different than a lot of other bands having nicknames for fans and street teams.
Obviously, with most male bands, girls swoon over the guys. They've always had a significantly large female audience, and A LOT of middle aged women. When they started getting big, they began doing these little camps and it was clearly a way to get money out of the women who OBSESS over Jared and his brother Shannon. At this point, they stopped meeting fans after shows, they were just too big, so these retreats were essentially the only chance to meet them. I think they prey on that female obsession to connect with them. It honestly makes me think of comic cons too (would be a great video topic!)
I really think it's one reason he hasn't ever acknowledged he's been in a longterm relationship for like six years. No one knows who she is really, and he acts single and very flirty with fans. I think Jared's ego fuels it all and it's a manipulative money-grab. To say fans can sleep in your tent, or you get some overtly intimate experience - it's predatory.
Best comment ,very informative. Thank you
Totally agree on the predatory aspect, and thank you for sharing that important info! I had no idea about the early beginnings of 30 seconds to Mars and that definitely helps make more sense of where they are now!
As a wristband carrying former Echelon member, I approve this message.
His brother was a bit more down to earth. Remember Deadsy?
Literally the only person I’ve ever met that is a huge fan of theirs is a woman who is in her mid 40’s. And she’s obsessed w them.
I've also heard from a few people that in later years he just let the fans do most of the singing. Is that accurate, or just an occasional thing?
I've always known this guy would start a cult. He just has the look
Its also funny cause he looks exactly like cult leader from far cry 5, joseph seed lol
🤣 Right?!!
also plays the creepy supervillian/cult leader in all of his movies
FACTS.
And he never ages….
The fact that he said ,” leave your tent open , you ll never know who is going to show up” ( I am paraphrasing) gives me predatory vibes .
Middle of the night, "Someone's breaking into the tent!" Shines flashlight and sees an alligator tearing at the canvas door!
"Oh thank God, I thought it was Jared Leto!" LOLOL
Given that he actually (allegedly) has allegations against him for assaulting his fans... I cringed so hard, my soul left my body when he said that
It’s a sex traffic trap
That is mad creepy
@@erikdaniels0n He does?
This guy tried to sleep with me when I was underage and actually dressed up as him at one of his concerts (I did such a good job a bunch of people at the gig thought I was him). I was saved by a security guard who physically took me away from Leto and asked my age then made sure I got out and away okay. The guy is a massive creep and always has been. The fact that he gets away with this to this day is so wron
I wondered at the time they released their first song why someone of Leto's age was releasing emo music. Suspected this.
I worked at a concert venue once when his band had a show.. Yes, he is a creep. During the meet and greet/ photo Op, he, and only he, was touching and pulling at and grabbing at CLEARLY underage girls, or close enough that you should question it, saying things pretty borderline inappropriate as well. When his people and security would see it, they would just move the girls along.
Wanting to sleep with someone who is dressed up as you is next level narcissism. WOW. (As if the underage thing wasn't creepy enough already.)
The underage this is obviously creepy, but you were dressed up as him and he did this?! WHAT LMAO??? That’s somehow so hilarious and bizarre, but not shocking 🤣
good god this guy is a true f:ing creep 🤬🤬😤 i am so sorry that happened to you, and i hope he have bad things aka a court date and jail time in his future. 🤬

Also you can go on meditation retreats where you don't speak a word so you learn to be comfortable with silence and your thoughts and your body and the world around you, building awareness. You can meditate and still be vain. It doesn't change your inner personality, just your awareness.
That’s a good point!
also you can go on lovely retreats with quiet and maybe some yoga, and it doesn't COST THIS MUCH!!! I mean, if you want to make sure that everyone around you is from the same socio economic group, which is WHITE AND RICH, then go to this. If you want some real quiet and time to think, enjoy the beauty of nature, and dress in comfy clothing.....heck the Quakers are nice and offer some cheap retreats and won't push any religion on you....but they won't ensure you won't accidentally meet and minorities or poor people.
Plus méditation is never not silent the way he phrased it was just ridiculous
if it has no affect on you, then you doing it wrong - meditation is a philosophy and the way to find your true self, not this lifestyle nonsense, you can't meditate like you're going to starbucks (which is also just a pile of **** btw.) but that's what the "west" is simply not getting
Lilithia Abendstern the point was that it doesn’t change who you truly are. Meditation won’t cure you of your negative personality traits.
it’s funny that Jared calls his band “anti- greed” yet charges sky high prices for camp mars and mars island.
For real!!
Maybe in his logic if his fans are anti-greed, they are more willing to part with their money.
I mean, the hypocrisy
Real talk! Maybe all of the money goes to charity/charitable works 🤷🏽♀️*sarcasm*
I cried happy tears when I was exhausted after an overnight shift and stayed up about 36 hours. I was delirious and I saw a picture of a cute frog, one of the big chubby ones and he was itching his little chubby sides with his leg. I cried for ten minutes at that video before immediately crashing 😭
I mean, that island retreat sounds like a really relaxing vacation if you just got rid of Jared Leto and all of his fans.
I laughed too hard at this so truuuuuee!
Burst out laughing at work when I read this. So true.

I used to like 30 seconds to Mars, until I heard Jared basically say "I don't owe my fans anything. They're not the reason I'm successful."
Saw the clip forever ago so not a direct quote but that really rubbed me the wrong way. Obviously some fans are totally out of line and expect special treatment because they bought an album but to say you don't owe your fans anything/they didn't contribute to your band's success at all is absurd and so dismissive to fans.
@Jared Leto hahaha love it
He is telling you the truth! He knows that Hollywood makes you or breaks you, not fans. He is part of his cult named Hollywood. They are all warlocks and witches.
That's because he already made a deal for his fame. He knows he's set...for now...

Eeeew... I worked on security and bon Jovi members each had a blacked out limo to take them a five second trip. Everyone was told that they must not make eye contact 😂 some ppl are just stereotypical narcissists lol! 🤣💩
@@Camille_Anderson I have met Jon multiple times (I grew up in the town he lives in) he and his wife are absolute sweet hearts and he does sooo much with charities in NJ and meets fans constantly. But I think at some times it is a security or timing issue if they had to get there another way they would be swamped with fans.
@@itskaybe6348 I'm so glad about that, cos I'm a huge, huge fan & always have been! 💯❤️ so it hurts a little to witness it, but honestly, it was a nightmare! But when u work at shows u see a side that's different - , it's an incredibly long day when performing - travelling, rehearsing, performing & finally decompressing!

bands with hardcore fanbases that respect their fans and see them as individual people who truly love their work do not need to manufacture “devotion” or ask their fans to get tattoos etc and the fact that thirty seconds to mars/jared leto have to manufacture that kind of intense love is really telling
Yes but celebs are only are as big as their fans make them to be. The fans who are overwhelmingly female know what they are signing up for and spend thousands to do it. Nobody is making them follow him. Women who have money to spend on a celeb are not victims.
Plum… They’re not victims yet.
Yet.
An old friend was an entrepreneur & he had a strange obsession with trump.
He signed up for trump “university” and he wasn’t a victim either.
Until he became a victim.
His savings account was drained & he had to join a class action to get pennies back.
If Leto’s cult/grift processed, there will definitely be victims.
Another example/parallel with Leto & trump is him buying the teen beauty pageant.
The contestants & parents were thrilled that a big shot rich celeb showed up to save the pageant & score a tv deal.
Then word spread that trump would walk from dressing room to dressing room peering in on the girls while they changed clothes.
And suddenly there were victims.
These dudes are sociopathic.
People do as they choose. They weren't forced to get tattoos as you heard. Plenty of ppl follow their favorite bands & get tattoos etc.
Don't compare them to Trump. Trump is a hardcore cold narcissist who demands ppl look up to him. He's a lot like Jim Jones and Putin. He doesn't even care about his own kids, Sick
"We need more of them" He ONLY said that because he's using them as labor. He's against the wall because then they would have to pay mandatory regulated employees. He didn't treat them like they were welcomed just because they are humans for their own dreams and purposes. But just for more workers. That was so gross
I agree, i was surprised she didnt mention it
@@elli1080 maybe there will be a part 2 and she'll bring it up.

When his role as the Joker is more normal than him 😂😂
I actually enjoyed his Joker, but there wasn’t anything to really grasp about him. I thought the “gangster” version of Joker would be cool, but it just wasn’t represented very much. Blah, he’s weird.
Right? Way to waste his natural insanity lol
He is the Joker naturally. He did not have to act, he just became the real him. This "nice, calm, all collected" persona is being acted by Joker for the masses.

It's even worse when you think like... a lot of people who started getting into this band were also into a lot of bands in the "emo/alternative" scene. A lot of these people were misunderstood teens that felt lonely and they got a feeling of community and being heard with bands like these. Jared Leto is taking advantage of vulnerable or once-vulnerable people that of course will be more easily swayed into this ridiculous cult thing. It's really sad.
But lonely vulnerable teens most likely won't have that kind of money?
@@bananabrain2996 Not always, especially if they ended up as adults who are doing okay for themselves. There's a lot of factors that can contribute to someone feeling like an outcast and result in looking to an idol for total reassurance.

"If you want to get rich, you start a religion" -L Ron Hubbard
Not a religion
Im Flying define satanic😂😂😂😂 If something is not christian it’s basically “satanic” so chill out.
Im Flying I was being ironic. The point was that the Christian dogma spread the message that anything that is not christian is satanic. That involves other religions, belief systems, philosophies and ESPECIALLY pre-christian pagan beliefs. Jared has tattoos with symbols that are included in these different systems. Does that mean they are satanic? Not really. To Christianity even astrology is forbidden and considered satanic, because it is based on pagan belief systems. Maybe you should cultivate yourself and read some actual books on history of religions and civilization. I warn you though- it will burst your little bubble.
Im Flying I understand, but by naming those so called symbols satanic you seemed to not really know what they are about. Pagan or occult sciences are not satanic in the sense that they don’t worship Satan , but christianity names them so because they don’t worship their god, which is Jehovah. In the book of Job it is implied that God and satan actually communicate and “collaborate” almost in a bet-like way. Satan means adversary in literal translation, not “evil” necessarily. You said Jared has demons with him lol. That sounded pretty much like christian brainwash to me. Anyways ,religion is too huge of a discussion to have here. Glad you are open and try to judge for yourself different teachings and philosophies. 😊
I can't believe he wrote science fiction and fantasy stories and then people actually took Scientology seriously
lol I liked one song in 2009 but never mind.
😂😂
Exactly my sentiments
Lmao same
I like Requiem for a dream but yeah.. Not cults lol
Was it closer to the edge
When he tells everyone at camp Mars to"make sure you leave your doors unlocked, never know who's going to pay you a visit." Feels like he's going into his fans tents at night and I get like a NXIVM vibe from Jared Leto in that statement
There's multiple women who accuse him of sexual assault...sooo
Typical cult leader.
@@LostButBroken 😤🤬i was actually getting a shiver when hearing him say that sentence so i am not that surprised he has allegations towards him, however i am still repulsed
So creepy!!
I lock 🔒 my tent up
This is yet another example of how out of touch with reality and how delusional certain celebrities become/are. They truly live in their own little bubble/world and we’re just mere guests in it.
His fans who spend thousands to hang out with him at Mars Island are just as delusional. Perfect match.
Someone from Croatia commenting and we definitly don't want him here lol. I honestly think he is just super cringe worthy and sometimes thinks too highly of himself. Just because you won an Oscar and are successful musician and businessman doesn't mean you are above everyone else and you can treat people badly(and honestly like a creep especially towards young girls). He should be respected but at the same time he should humble himself and maybe reflect on some on his behaviours.
Totally agree, I think that’s a very well balanced perspective on Jared Leto himself, and I worry about the resources of a small island with such a large crowd out there for such a short amount of time! Hope that doesn’t hurt the people and surrounding communities!
I also felt the creepy vibes when he talked about keeping the doors open? "rock stars" and young women .... i really fucking hate them
Damn it, this cult like behaviour is very creepy allready but his reference jokes about "white nights" and other Jim Jones/Jonestown stuff is alarming and a desert island looks like a perfect location for a mass murder/suicide...Please, stay away Leto!
and he won the Oscar by playing a transwoman in a role most of the trans community was upset about for a variety of reasons, including his casting in the first place. as a trans person, even that accomplishment feels tainted to me.
I feel like he was cool before the oscar. And then it went to his head... Even his style changed
“Trapped in a island with Jared Leto”
Criminally underrated comment
Nawww I pass lol
“Keep your doors unlocked” 🤡
I know this is the least of his problems but:
Normal people: *making sourdough bread, planting their own organic gardens, and teaching their kids carpentry*
Jared: "I learned how to make rice. Worship me"
I'm rewatching your old videos, and hearing "Welcome back to my blue kitchen" again made me smile! Glad you're still posting and doing well, I love your content!
I was unaware of all these things, all I knew is there were old people buying Jared Leto portraits thinking he was Jesus and praying to him, and thought "That's a mood".

Jared Leto has always given off strong narcissistic vibes to me. There's just something creepy about him. Also, why is he not aging?!
Totally aging. Look at the crinkles around his eyes and between them. The older he gets, the more deepset his eyes become. Also, genetics, diet, and money do amazing things.
I have always just thought there is something off about him. Amazing actor. But yeah. I don’t want to be on that island.
Most of celebrities using hormones to age slower. He probably uses the same thing

Even the ones who do have their issues. I know one who is wonderful to their fans but isn't very respectful toward their non-profit volunteers.
That's not true. Most musicians are pretty down to earth and are very grateful to their fans. It's narcissists who don't care about their fans....
Jordan Catalano would think 2020 Jared Leto is a douche. Lol.
@Earthymoon my thoughts exactly🤣
I think I finally found the true answer to the question on who exactly are the people who actually think Jared Leto was good as The Joker.
One he was AWFUL as the joker
It literally never made sense to me until I watched this video 😂
"I've actually never received an award for anything."
Shame we had to change that...
😅🤣😂
Award for worst joker, award for most handsome cult leader? I can give him those I suppose. But while their music is fine, it ain't the best, nor is his acting, nor is his personality. Few people actually win meaningful awards, why spend a spot on Jared Leto of all people, he's got enough.

It sounds like he's making fun of his own fans, toying with his own fame, and enjoying watching his fans be his dancing, money paying, puppets. Not a regular cult, but a social joke where everyone in on it is the punchline.
A whole bunch of THIS ^
It is not his fault. People need to snap out of this "fan culture" and start living their own lives. Why would anybody worship anther wretched human being?!

I’ve cried out of happiness. Sometimes I’ll watch something extremely heartwarming to get the toxins out.
I legit cried out of happiness when I found out I graduated university. All the stress and emotions from past years just came out at once. :)
Congratulations! A great moment.
I’ve also cried at happy occasions, nothing wrong with that.
I cried at my graduation! I was also 7 months pregnant though lol
There were times when I cried from happiness too. Like watching my daughter being happy in her birthday, when someone gives you a toughtful gift, even with books-series-artists I like
It’s totally normal to cry when you’re happy. No one should be made to feel otherwise.
I've definitely cried happy tears before! no shame! and congrats 💛
People cry tears of happiness when they finally see their family member after being deployed for a long time. But yeah I do thing 30 Seconds to Mars is making their fans look bad. Like really why would someone need to create something like this? It’s just creepy to me.
IKR!! And yes that’s very true! I have a feeling if my husband goes on deployment I will DEFINITELY cry tears of happiness when he gets back
Only time I've ever cried happy tears was when my daughter was born.
i think often it's from feeling relieved about something that was making you nervous rather than happiness
I cried at my wedding (along with my husband, my mother and my sister). I've seen several people cry at their or their loved ones' weddings. I saw a beloved, working-class figure in my community cry when receiving an award as recognition of her devotion and hard work. I've seen my mom cry when I was a small child and would give her homemade gifts. Sometimes I cry just our of a feeling of fulfillment (usually wrt my marriage). Of course all sorts of people process emotion differently, but it's interesting to me to hear that this isn't a part, even just a tiny part, of some other people's lives.
@@jubs96 That, and I also just cry tears of joy now because I have gone through some really tough stuff. So now, when I see joyful moments, I am just so happy to be witnessing or experiencing something great. I almost always happy cry for other people, but I've cried for myself a few times too, including when I got the full ride scholarship I needed in order to go to the school that put me on my career path.
Lol sounds like Midsommer + Fyre Festival to me. Yikes!

@@CherryBlossomBlyue Midsommer is a real thing that happens in some countries which a celebration in the middle of the summer, Midsommar is a the comment is talking about and is a horror movie inspired by Midsommers but with the cult element to it
OMG I thought of Midsommar too !
I kinda fell down a rabbit hole about the Manson family, and let me tell you, it's making me look at this cult in a reeeally creepy light. The use of the word family, the abundance of young free spirited women and the occasional hippie bro, the isolated "we know the secrets" mentality - they're all looking mighty familiar. I don't want them exploiting their fans for money, but if that's the only thing Leto and co. are after, there's at least a shred of comfort in that.
Is no one going to say anything about the Mexican thing... okay
Tbh I didn’t even know what to say 😅 just showed it because... well... there it is...
Seriously speechless O_O I thought I hallucinated it
Haven't gotten there in the vid yet, how bad is it?
I kept saying, ‘what the f*ck?” His sense of entitlement is really sticking out here.
Ok. I just hs aw that and I’m appalled and pissed 😡. Also his voice totally sounded like....Gulp....Trump. 🤢
Just want to emphasize that Jared Leto is 2 years shy of 50. He also has a history of DM-ing 18-25 year old models.
Yikes
Oh, he's gone even younger... I'm talking from ages 12. He's a bloody sicko and self indulging criminal
18-25 is no problem though.
18-25 is normal for an attractive old 48 yo dude that looks 20 yrs younger than his peers. Everyone makes fun of Keanu reeves gf for precisely that reason. They expect him to be with someone who looks much younger and hotter bc he looks like that. (Im a fan of neither. Im just saying what i see). But if Jared is dating CHILDREN like that other commenter is saying, then he needs the electric bathtub. Jail, no probation.
Those are what we call legal adults where I live. Not sure where you live?
i mean. at least they’re legal
He really should hire someone to write small speeches for him. Hearing him improv was cringeworthy.
The crying from Joy is definitely a real thing! Not everyone expresses joy that way, but I’ve also seen the flipside where a person is so sad or angry that they just break into uncontrolled laughter
Dude at my highschool, he got in a lot of fights, would get so angry he would cry. He could throw hands but was crying the whole time. Feels like a metaphor or a reflection of inner conflict.
Laughing can happen when a person is really stressed out and overwhelmed. It can also be a response to feeling uncomfortable and awkward, especially women who have been taught that showing anger is unacceptable can react with smiling and laughter in situations where they feel cornered/threatened or uncomfortable. Laughing can happen after serious sexual assault or other traumas and then it’s the body’s way of trying to calm itself down.
And of course you can cry because something good has happened. Then there can be things like relief, gratitude, feeling moved etc mixed in.
@@johannalarsson1901 laughing is my response to a lot of situations that it should not be the response for
I’ve cried, then started laughing, then went back to crying. My brain is broken 😞
He seems like a narcissist with a mid-life crisis to me.
He has lost his soul, that is what fame will do to a human being.
Look at Jared over here growing his big messiah complex.
ur hair looks soooooo nice, may have to take inspiration for spring 2022 with this look
This man is fifty. He isn't in the desert. He is having work done people.
He's 50?! Holy shit!
So what he is 50? Ur a fur toothed bat
He had a round face when he was younger so that probably worked in his favor later on. I know this because “The kill” popped up on my RUclips feed and in the video he still had a baby face at age 30
Hahahaha yeah maybe
@@alyssapinon9670 Yeah, exactly. Go look at him from his roll in Fight Club. He was a wee babe then.
what sorta bothers me that there has been years of allegation against Jared for sleeping with his underage fans ( along with so many of the emo bands of the mid 2000s, a few currently in jail) that keeps getting squashed down and forgotten by the fans and the band. There were too many similar accounts for it to not be any investigation and it really left a bad vibe.
Amazing video as always. I was right there cringing with you haha.
Oh wow. I didn’t even know of this and I spent hours and hours researching him and the band... that’s so frustrating and I definitely would have said something about it if I knew 😕😔
Cruel World Happy Mind yep! They get well buried but come back up every once in a while. He has even been called out by his peers about this. Me too will hopefully catch up with him soon.
There are no allegations. One fan wrote a fan fantasy blog about this and it went viral. That is it.
@@Janine026 Preach!
I think I do remember the sexual allegations against him being brought when the MeToo movement first exploded.
I went to their concert in 2014 (shortly before my 14th birthday)... someone from 30STM's team came up to me with an offer to do some face paintings for fans. I did it and in exchange I got an upgraded ticket to be on the stage with the band during the whole concert. I stood next to Tomo (now a former member of the band) and I must say he was actually so nice. He talked to us all the time (during breaks between songs). To me, it was one of the best experiences and I will be forever thankful for it. I understand that business is a business (the band made a really good documentary called Artifact where they explain how the music industry works). HOWEVER, I feel like the money aspect really distanced me and not only me from the band. They are simply overpriced for not too much. The price of the ticket for their show is fine, but the show really lacks its former quality (look at the reviews). Now it all seems like "you want us? Pay couple thousand dollars, otherwise we won't even talk to you". Such a pity.
Btw. I wonder if this new money attitude had anything to do with Tomo leaving the band.
I wonder if maybe Tomo was against it, and after bickering he left, and the reasonable person telling them not to do this stuff was no longer in the way? It's a bit of a chicken/egg thing, Not sure which led to which, but I can't imagine it's unrelated. Also, your 2014 experience sounds really cool and I'm glad they did that for you.
30stm is one of the beat bands,its not like other bands,i never been in their concert yet but when i saw them i feel like im in there too,its so beautiful ans btw Tomo is a nice guys and i felt sad when he left the band🔺
I cried from happiness when my 9 year old son took accountability for his actions with a neighbor without even being told to.
That would do it!
did he just say white night when he was talking to his fans? as in what Jim jones would say over the loudspeaker to gather everyone for his rehearsals? I know he's actively trying to make this seem as much like a cult as possible but could he leave out the references to mass su*cide maybe?
Yeah I just commented about this as well (sorry, I didn't see your comment before) nothing to me is scarier than that...

12:28 Wow I can’t believe the worst Joker actor is going to solve war in the Middle East.
Kory Neff you are so petty for this comment. Hahahaha! I really cackled at this.
Lmao!
As a die hard fan I used to be, I can surely confirm that this whole thing is not a cult. Ever since 2006 the band has joked over it, and saying "yes, this is cult" is part of the joke. People thought that just because there were hidden symbols and messages in the albums, was enough reason to think 30STM was starting a cult, but it's fake hahaha.
The main reason why I stopped following this band is because they actually stopped to care about their fans, they just ceased to be important for them (when the whole concept of the band was the exact opposite), suddenly the prices for their merch went stupidly high and it quickly became a band for rich people. Literally speaking. It's like if you have no money, then you're absolutely not worth of their attention in any case. Jared's attitude began to suck ass. For that, I totally agree that he's a narcissist creep. I realized this short after he won his Oscar award. Now he totally acts like he's a divinity on earth as if people is not paying incredible amounts of money just to get a chance to meet him. That to me, is creepy enough, without mentioning this whole "cult" thing.
I can't stand this guy, and I'm very sorry for that. He used to be very different from the person he is today. Maybe he was acting hahaha but at least, that Jared character used to be way more charming and simpler than this narcissistic weird gucci dude he's now.
Tbh I mentally cancelled Jared Leto the moment the Suicide Squad cast came out with what an asshole he was to them, but h‘oh boy this is really just the icing on the cake.
You're on that cancel culture train?, how sad must it be being part of a movement that's made completely out of snowflakes

I think the fact that he sent Will Smith a box of shit and Will Smith has no desire to ever work with him again kinda says a lot.
I met Jared Leto with his band at an album signing YEARS ago....he was super strange and refused to look at or talk to anyone.
For me it was opposite, super nice and talkative lol I guess celebs have bad days too
Any regular human has a bad day its brushed off & unfortunately famous ppl have ppl constantly taking pictures,ppl prying in their lives. It would be so hard to be super happy every single day. They have good days & bad just like everyone else & I don't care who you are if you absolutely love a certain famous person you would definitely jump at the chance to spend any amount of time being close to that person if you have the means & the way. I think its really cool he put himself out there to get close to the fans like that. If I didn't live on the east coast & would have known who knows I probably would have jumped at the chance. I think ppl are reading far more in to this then what it looks like but to each their own!.
Really?! I’ve met him in 2006 when the band wasn’t very well known in Germany yet and Jared was super nice. The whole band was signing autographs after the show until everyone that wanted an autograph had one (it was a show with 2500 people) and Jared was super friendly and asked me if I enjoyed the show and thanked me for coming. Fast forward to 2010 and going to another show & meeting his brother after the show... asked him if he could take a picture with me since I was having surgery the next day and it would lift my spirits (he had a “no photos only autographs” policy at that point) and he actually accused me of lying about having surgery to get a “sympathy photo”. I was so pissed and shocked. I had never been treated this badly by any musician and I’ve met lots (Slash & Dave Grohl being some of the super famous ones) My friends who were at the show with me even told him I wasn’t lying about the surgery, but he didn’t care. Needless to say I stopped being a fan of the band that night. I just couldn’t support a band that would treat people so badly.

I liked their music but this is making me uncomfortable about liking their music.

13:20 *TO ANSWER THAT QUESTION YOU ASKED (**13:16**) Madison,* _I've cried tears of happiness_ -- complete and utter joy, gratitude or mirth -- before... but only on a handful of occasions!!
I think a lot of the old-school This Is War era fans dipped out after Camp Mars... I know I started to get weird vibes once they started charging such high prices for M&G. Thirty Seconds to Mars will always have a place in my heart, their music got me through a few really rough years, and "Yes, this is a cult" was a sort of in-joke in the fandom. But it's taken a weird turn in the past few years...
Edit side-note: I cried tears of happiness watching the Disney World fireworks my first night as a cast member ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
Old-school 30 Seconds to Mars fan here; that's exactly what I did. It got genuinely sketchy, way beyond the point of normal bands joking with their fans.
Sooooo many women who have met him say the same thing. Then when I met him I ended up having the same exact story. I was working at the Playboy Mansion (a long time ago) taking photos and I saw all kinds of amazing celebrities ( Neil Patrick Harris, I am looking at you!) Jared Leto came dressed as a Catholic Priest. My job was to take photos of people next to life sized cardboard cut outs of Hugh and his Bunnies. All you had to do was come in, take a photo and come back in an hour after we print them out. There was a long line. But Jared would not get in front of the camera. He just stared at me and stood in various spots in the room. Everywhere else except in front of the damn camera. It got uncomfortable. I knew he wouldn't do anything since men pay $1,500 to be there and are ejected the minute any female complains against them (including me). His friend really wanted to stay at the party so he started asking Jared to get a move on. Total creep. He just stands and stares at whatever female is in the room (trust me, the cardboard cut outs were a thousand times better looking than me, he was NOT hitting on me). The only people I know who do this are on the Autism spectrum (not an insult, it's just something to think about).
He wasn't staring at you in the same way autists might, he was staring at you as if you were prey. If you're a woman and working at the PB mansion, you are conventionally attractive, he was probably waiting for you to throw yourself at him.
Hey! Let’s not compare creeps to autistic ppl? That’s very much an insult
HOLD UP YOU MET NPH???? (even if briefly -)
@@user-hanging-at-the-hanged-man i think it was more some of their habits can be perceived as creepy. My brother is on the spectrum, and he does just space out and stare sometimes (at me, someone visiting, the wall, etc) and yeah. Its weird sometimes, especially if you happen to be doing something else and eventually notice. Then its like, how long have you been doing that? And they don't know either.
Honestly I would imagine a lot of people would be pretty akward at the party at the Playboy Mansion. You said that his friend wanted to be there, maybe Jared Leto himself didn't? I don't know but this kind of situation would make a lot of people feel pretty weird. If he is on a spectrum he might have it harder to mask it.
I'm at a point in life where you wouldn't catch me spending 25 $ to meet anyone. This whole thing is legit scary man smh
I'm at a point in my life where you would have to give me 25 bucks to meet anyone
😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂 i'm deaad
I love your videos Madison! This is my 2nd comment on ur vid! America has the worst false prophets, and all of those prosperity preachers! WTH!
Madison: this video is not a Jared Leto is a 'bad person video... but
Me: he's a bad person
He called me and my sister jackasses for leaving his concert before his last song played. It was outdoors, raining, cold, and I (15 at the time) was starting to get hypothermia. Lips blue, shaking etc.
Also, his concerts are awkward as hell. Half the time he doesnt even sing hes just like "everyone, reach for the sky and grab the clouds. Listen to the heavens. Listen to the planets. They are calling your name" like he took one too many dr*gs
He doesn’t take drugs at all, he lives a very clean life and I’ve been to numerous 30 seconds to Mars concerts and they were amazing, full of energy no weird things going on but guess we all have different experiences
erica Nicole - yeah, I’ve been to two of their concerts and it was like any other concert I’ve ever been to. Nothing like the OP’s. So I’m confused. Lol.
I miss the old 30stm...
J N I hate to be accusatory, I don’t even listen to this band nor am I invested in Jared Leto at all, but OP could easily be lying?
@@xhappyponyxwasmyoldname1395 I wish I were lying. I was a huge 30stm fan back in the day. When my sister told me she had bought tickets, I started sobbing over the phone. Whenever I saw them live, though... I kinda got annoyed about how Leto was acting on stage, but it was my first concert that wasn't TSO or a Christian festival (oof) so I assumed all musicians were completely different live. Then he decided to call us jackasses whenever I was literally in pain from being so cold. I had never been that angry before. 30stm was one of the first bands my sister and I bonded over and we were both crushed by the way he reacted to us leaving before the last song in the set. If it hadn't have been for that experience, I'd probably still be listening to 30stm everyday, but I haven't listened to them ever since. I also didn't go to another concert for years after that bc I expected all artists would be major d*cks the entire time and I didn't want to shell out copious amounts of money to experience that.
The only good memories I got from that concert was spending time with my sister who was currently in college, and having my 10th grade English teacher saying "holy shit, he said that to you guys?!" Whenever I told him about it at the end of the school year. He also said the concert sucked and he was pissed off that Leto was basically just saying "reach for the sky" the entire time
I won two tickets for 30 seconds to Mars show a few years back and went to see them. I was very excited as I knew some of their songs and liked them. Cut to the concert and my fantasy was shattered. The whole stage was set off weirdly, Jared was front and centre while the other two band members were in the back facing each other instead of the audience. Jared came out like some sort of saviour and it ticked me off. Then he started singing and oh lord Jesus he was really really off-key. Like, unbearably off-key. He was so narcissistic, the imagery on the big screen was weird, and the crowd around me looked like in trance. I left in the middle of the concert, couldn't take it anymore. The vibe was off, like there was some sort of hypnosis or something going on, made my hair stand up. So I just left the venue.
I was listening to some women later who were die-hard fans and they went to their concert for the 7th or something time. They had tattoos of the logo on their bodies, a lot of memorabilia...and they were in their 40s! How could they not hear him sing like shit is beyond me!
Really...wow. Did you happen to video any of the disturbing parts or photos? I don't think I've ever left a concert early.
@@lynnettejanuzi hm...I had some videos of him singing (when it came to acoustic part), I wanted to show them to my brother who also liked their music. He was shocked when he heard him 😆 Not sure I have them anymore. That was around 7 to 8 years ago.
I have never left a concert early before or after that. Just this one. And I had to wait two hours to get back to the bus and drive from Munich to Slovenia. All in all a lot of driving for a shitty concert.
Man, I've never left a concert early-must've been crazy. Good for you for leaving & following your gut. I always thought 30 Seconds To Mars sucked lol
Just saw their new video come out 'Hail to the Victor'. I personally didn't like it, but it's got a definite 'CULT' appeal to it. If that's what they were aiming for...they nailed it. I was considering going to the Croatia one this year but definitely NOT now.
Been to multiple shows and every time it was a great experience. Good singing and show. Maybe at yoyrs he was sick. He tends to perform while sick.
Anyone else get super creeped out when they heard white night b/c of Jonestown?
YES!!!
I can say most of the times I've cried out of joy is because of my children and the immense Joy and love that they fill me with.
I cried happy tears when we adopted our girl from a shelter and on the way to her forever home she licked my face, put her head in my lap and fell asleep. That was after losing my doggie soulmate a week prior.
🥺💜 that’s understandable! Idk I feel like I’ve felt that emotion before I just don’t think I’ve fully cried though I want to cry happy tears!
@@cruelworldhappymind Girl, it took me by surprise. I am not a cryer, I think it was just so emotionally charged because I was still grieving my Parker and at the same time I had this new beautiful soul letting me know that it was all going to be o.k. And as long as you have felt that type of happiness, peace and joy, who cares if there is some water involved?! 😉We are all different so are our emotions and reactions to them.
Kat Pacho that is beautiful! I know how you feel, & the fact you can open your heart after a huge loss is awesome! 💯 I wept with joy when the vet called us to say our boy didn't have cancer, when days before we were told he was dying. Every day after that was a blessing. Four years later, he passed away, but I've never known such pain. Dad passed in April, & I knew he was going to meet him & he'd take care of him. Hope you & Ur family have years of joy together! We have a cat now, bullies us but hey, it's ok lol! I wish u happiness and health! Sorry for rambling 💯🙏
I need to get used to people referring to their pets as my girl/boy in English because the first part left me a little weirded
@@sophiehanna2069 same...
"You wouldn't understand"
Me: Don't worry, I don't want to
Thought that was Shakira commentong for a second, you look very like her.
I've cried tears of happiness when I passed my medical coding exam after 4 attempts. Lol True story.😁
congrats ❤️
2 years ago I watched a suicide squad interview where the man interviewing Jared Leto was treating him like a God. I had a feeling at that time that he was something other than what he portrays.
