I admire her for being this honest. It's proof of how much she's grown as a confident individual. It takes a lot of gut to do what she did in this video.
I mean, this is kinda true but people are almost making it sound like she committed a crime. I think it's cute and funny, but not to this extent of dramatic. I think it takes a lot of gut to admit/rebuke some kind of horrible thing you did. Not something like this. At least it shouldn't, everyone changes as they get older and people should be more open about it. No big deal.
I really don't think the "dolly phase" was fake or cringe at all. You loved doing it at the time and it was what you enjoyed and that's all that matters so you shouldn't be so hard on yourself. c:
exactly...that's what adolescents/teens do...it's the time to grow, evolve, and "try on" personas to find out all the aspects of your personality...finally settling on one for a while, only to continue to evolve through your whole life. my daughter slams me for letter her go through her (very short-very mild) emo/goth phase. i found it a fascinating phase. watching her explore it was cool for me, and i knew it wouldn't be the one she "settled" on.
It would have been incredibly cringey even if she had been a adolescent at the time.... Doing something that extreme as a hobby just for personal enjoyment would be a different story but that's not what she was doing. She completely immersed herself in being a fake person living a fake life and tried to make everybody think that's who she was.
Its kind of fake to pretend you know Japanese to the extent of having your Japanese teacher feed you lines for your voiceover. It honestly seemed like it was a lot of pressure for her to keep up (which is probably why she went past this phase relatively quickly). This was like a full on quarter life crisis 😂 People change so theres no need to hold onto the past but it feels appropriate to be a bit critical of yourself since we change so much in our 20s. It must be nice to look at things she did at age 24/25 and feel relieved that she’s still enjoying fashion and certain aesthetics without all of the pressure of posturing
this is so true! we each had our phase and there's no good or bad. It's part of our life and it's part of us that made us who we are today. You should be proud of yourself Taylor! I have been watching your videos since early on and I just love every phase of you
My worst phase was when I liked this boy from Argentina and I suddenly became argentinian even tho I'm not from there . I started to even speak Spanish with an Argentinian accent just to impress him ...... He never liked me back 😥😥😥
The "cringe" videos were basically like performance art. I never thought that this was actually a 100% representation of your life. I thought they were cute. Really enjoy the videos where we get to see more of real life though. Our styles change or at least they should. As far as styles/stages we go through, I just thank god my styles weren't on youTube. Growing up where people didn't have cell phones let alone ones with cameras on them, was a blessing. There was a lot less pressure.
You were «cringey» back when I was and I loved your style and was so jealous, but I stopped watching you when I changed. One day I came back and you had Also changed so now I watch you again :))
Taylor is so genuine like ? I remember seeing the bedroom tour a long time ago and think ... damn.. this is cringe af. And I found her channel again not knowing it was the same person. Shes grown so much and she's so much more genuine now ❤️
Same! I had somehow seen the room tour before and stumbled across her RUclips again. It took me a few videos until I realized it was the same person. She was talking about her old phase in one and it hit me. Insane. I like both styles but she is more authentic now. You can tell.
Current you is so much more likeable. I remember I watched one of your videos back then and I was like ugh this chick is trying so hard. But last year I watched one of your vlogs and I was like huh, she seems much more natural now and became a subscriber
I had a religious phase when I entered my religious high school. I stop after 3 years since I look kinda different than others. When I look back, I don't regret it but people around me keep pointing it out and that makes me embarrassed 😌 I'm still quite religious now but not too much like my old self 😂
I liked watching you when you were girly. But now you're such an inspiration and someone to admire, which I didn't feel before your transformation. I definitely love you the way you are now Tay! so relatable and down to earth ♡♡
I love how you're so honest and transparent instead of trying to pretend you never went thorugh the same type of phases most of us do to some degree and in some way at some point! :)
I think it would be cool for you to do a 100% speaking Japanese video again! Maybe update your Japanese learning video, etc.? Especially since you've been there for a while. :}
Stephanie Graham I know, I've watched her since her first couple videos on YT. I just think it would be cool to see an updated version of one she did a long time ago.
You really don't have to know Japanese to live in Japan. It's very foreigner friendly. She's from Canada, moved to China to do modelling. Moved to Japan, worked as a model. She used to be super in to Otaku culture (dressing super kawaii, doing videos in Japanese) but you can't see a lot of those videos anymore. She's grown up a lot since then but has stayed in Japan because she likes it there. Now she does youtube as her main career with occasional modelling. She used to have a Japanese tutor but with RUclips being her job she doesn't really NEED to know Japanese fluently anymore.
Omg I had watched your videos when you were pretending to be this "living Japanese doll" and I actually liked them but I just stopped watching them because they were a little bit creepy so I hadn't watched any single video since 2014-2015 till now that you were ob my suggestion page and I couldn't believe you are the same!! I prefer 1000000% how you are now, you look so much mature and funny and REAL. Btw you look so gorgeous and I enjoy your videos now even waaay better than before. Subscribed. 💕
Tbh i remember watching your old videos and then stopped and started watching current you and had NO idea it s the same person, that's a hella fast change you had tbh.
hahah Taylor's own version of try not to cringe challenge Elbow San is the greatest person ever you chose well Taylor XD I can't believe he did all of that for you
when I first discovered you it was back in your kawaii days and I thought you were so cute and perfect! it's so weird to see you expose all of the stuff going on behind the camera because I spent so much time watching your videos amazed that you had moved to Japan and learned so much Japanese, and thinking you were so perfect and wishing I was like you. I love how you are now a lot better, now you feel like a friend rather than a perfect doll, but I've always loved you nonetheless 💓
I really like the *current* you; you're much more of a relatable person. In particular, it is great seeing your personality come out and I like how genuine you are with your insecurities.
It's funny because I remember when I had that "doll phase" too. I remember watching that specific bedroom tour video and being so inspired by it because my makeup and style was so much like yours now I look back on it and wonder why I acted and looked so cringe c': I still love the dolly look but more realistically. Cheers to growing up Taylor c,: 💖💖
It's funny, I remember coming across you when you were in that doll phase and not liking it and scrolling past your content. Years later, with your genuine style and personality now, I'm a new fan. I actually didn't realize you were that person until this video!
Actually the cringiest bedroom video brought me to your channel. I saw it and I was like WTF so I clicked on the next video which was pretty awesome, and so I stayed ^^
I sometimes dress in doll style clothes in America but it's so different from sweats a and skinny jeans everyone else wears so I usually draw attention to myself when I'm actually really introverted😂 anyways I think you can pull off any style perfectly!!!
lol right? I live in New Jersey not even 20 mins from where the Jersey Shore was filmed so almost everyone here my age wants a tan, big lips and butt. Its the complete OPPOSITE of Japan
Taylor💙I love both of your styles but I prefer your new transformation. You're always so cute. &Watching your videos can always inspired me to be more positive. I'm your fans from Macau😛🙌🏻 (Sorry for my poor English)
I have been watching her old video after going through her recent one I can say she changed so much I never thought she was like this and into Japanese fashion or anime style but she changed for good and show her real personality and be herself that I found more easier to watch.
I believe that room tour was how I got introduced to your channel. Years later your channel got recommended again and the content about living in Japan, intrigued me. Was nice to see you guys flourish and going through that pregnancy hassle and finally having a beautiful healthy child Love from Belgium x
"I won't delete it because it's probably the video I get the most money for." haha totally understand why, though. the bedroom video is creepy af but I've always been impressed by how much effort you put into it. even more so now that I know you even had your teacher help you with your Japanese. ;) I love the dance videos though. I'm a fan of dance covers and I did some myself, too. :)
I really love how honest you are about this! Not everyone would admit to trying to be perfect and trying to create a certain image etc. It's really refreshing :)
Your bedroom tour video was amazing. You looked so much like a doll - its fascinating. Its great that you have evolved and grown up. It would have been weird if you'd stayed the same.
and yeah i had a major cringe phase when i was 14-15 years old i was such a scene kid wannabe 😂 except i really sucked at it just imagine a small eyed asian girl with rimless spectacles, a mullet that was really poofy and hard from hairspray and a purple tank top with jeans and red flats. and i was obsessed with fred (the youtuber) =_= i still rmb doing his catchphrases "HEYYYY ITS FREDDD WAHTSUP HOMIE G" "I NEED MY MEDSSS" oml what dark years
taylor : did you like this style? Tom : (feel the danger ) mmmm I like it Taylor : well you were attracted to me with this style … and now? Tom : ( danger danger red alert) mmmm I like both 😂😂😂😂
I love how you are being so real and are able to laugh and talk about yourself. That's like maaaaad maturity and sophistication --TEACH ME! Sooooo happy that you are staying true, happy and comfortable with yourself. ❤️
Even at really bad days, your video make me smile ! I found your channel because I wanted to watch Japanese RUclipsrs or RUclipsrs living in Japan. I like both Tay, and you didn't looked cringe, being cute is not cringe, it is just different than Western culture.
It's fun to be a princess even if it's just for a little while, sometimes interests move on and it's always better to focus on what you're passionate about :) I like seeing both 2015 and 2017 Taylor, your early videos were really creative, even if following trends, fake-ish and maybe a little cringe now, you put the effort in to make the videos and that's important. You're awesome Taylor, ty for all your hard work! Hope you're feeling better soon :)
I seriously love how honest you are, i wish that I’ll be able to be that accepting and modest with myself. I remember watching one of your videos back then and being like ‘ew yuck’ but now I can tell you matured so much, that is so inspirational
I used to be super obsessed with looking depressed (that rhymes) like every picture I took I would like crease my eyebrows up to look more sad and then id never smile. I did that bc I wanted people to ask if I was ok. #dramaqueen. I also hated my self and liked to tell everyone I was ugly. Emo stage...
That's not just an emo stage...that's actually pretty normal for a teenage girl. You feel bad inside and you just want someone to notice. I decided to stop talking when I was 16...that didn't last a day!
Oh babe you were so mean and rude to yourself:( it wasn't that bad pretty, and you don't have to explian nothing, that phase it is part of you, and you were so freaking cute chica;(❤
aaaah i love both styles and those videos are the reason i know who you are :3 i love how chill you are now.. you're literally my favourite youtuber lol, but i also loved how cute your videos were before
I love how confident you are in yourself that you can look and laugh at this so openly. I'd never heard of you before this really long, weird youtube journey I've been on for the past 5 hours, but you've got a new sub :)
I found your channel when you were were dressing in dolly style, because I like that style too! Your channel has definitely changed a lot since then. Those videos were not that "Cringeworthy" or terrible, and I honestly liked them more than the videos you make now >.< It's good that you were able to get this off your chest, if you felt like you needed too- also that you're not making content that makes you feel fake or embarrassed.
Your doll character is a great character. Asian opera traditonally dress performer up like that. You could have kept that character as part of your channel while simultaneously doing Taylor vlog no conflict at all
Taylor, you are not alone. The amazingly cringy things I did in my past (like wearing eyeshadow even beyond my eyebrow and think that I look sexy) will be haunting my memories forever
You blushed for the whole video 😳 but elbow San really love you. Even though you've changed so much! It means he loves you in person but not for your appearance. But your hair before looked really shinny.
the bedroom is the worst one! and yes, my worst phase was my skater punk phase! i couldn't even skate 😂 then Avril Lavigne happened and I immediately quit that look lolol
lmao, and I started that phase _after_ Avril, wich is worse!! I would pretend to skate, I would wear ties, I.. can't keep talking, I'm cringing too hard here honest to god. I seriously think I'd puke if I had to rewatch me at that age lmao
Whatever your idea of being Satanic was was most likely extremely inaccurate because Satanists are rarely scary or even disagreeable, let alone evil. You might want to do some research on the topic. People have some really absurd misconceptions. You know who you pretty much never see in the news for doing horrible things? Satanists. You know who you see in the news for doing horrible things literally every day? Christians.
When I see your videos, I honestly enjoy the little moments when the light shines in your eyes because your best friends hang out with you or do something for you. I've never been more sad realizing that I don't have friends like that, but it also gives me inspiration to find true friends who I can trust and will be happy with me. Keep up the awesome videos.
Cat Meowb honestly, I don't think year 7 is anyone's year lmao if people get out of the first year of high school WITHOUT any cringe worthy memories or pics, I reckon they're very lucky HAHAH
I've had so many different phases in my life..."skater fashion", emo, scene, kinda a mix of emo and goth, hippie, androgyny, grunge, then i tried mixing both feminine and masculine styles (like wearing a skirt with a boyish shirt), and slowly i started wearing more and more dresses/skirts and now my style is kinda a mix of a few styles but mostly kawaii, doll, korean, harajuku, childish, kinky, all pastel colors and my favorite color combination is pink and white. Tbh yes, i was cringey at some phases (mostly the emo one probably) but i don't regret anything i did because even if it was cringey, fashion always helped me express myself and made me happier and feel better about myself. I now get more stares/comments about my current style more than ever, some are good comments and some are bad, but i just ignore them because i love what i wear, i feel beautiful, i feel happy, and that's what really matters.
Nothing bad in change as long as it isn't in a negative way. Definitely the bedroom is cringe lol But I like this new Taylor better now than before Taylor. You seem more relaxed and chill. Keep up the great work! :) Love your vids.
I've been waiting for this like forever Taylor your videos are the reason why I smile whenever I feel stressed I'll just click to one of your videos. I love u Taylor ❤️
I've been in this mental funk for years but I alternate between this high-class smart super groomed look and then this messy wild hippy beach bum look..... Haha my family joke about which me is going to turn up at Easter/Christmas etc 😂
Im half Japanese but not gonna lie i kinda had a cringe/awkward stage too xD ahaha we all go through them!!!! I love you so much now though!! Nothing against the old you, but your....more true to yourself now~? natural? and so funny!!! Never stop being yourself! love you so much Tay~! xx
Hahaha I'm a 21 German and had the same phase like taylor but with the fact that I couldn't afford wigs or Japanese clothing and than I went trought the shops here in Germany and bought everything wich had Japanese ltters on it or was an extremly cute thing hahah and than Ionce had the day to do my hair like if I was in Japan and just 5 hairclips but my whole class made fun of me asking if I could fit more hairclips on my head back than >.< I'm a bit still like this, but not more that extremly weird, because as I was around 15-17 I had no idea what to do with myself and yeah... in that age my dayli makup for example included the brightest makup I could find, 1-3cm big white shimery kajal under my eye, a lot of light pink and white eyeshadow, glittering eyeliner, a lot of light pink or peach colored lipgloss, a lot of blush and many pastel colored nail polish, cute dresses with butterflys or small flowers on it,... and than I had that kinda phase sometimes between where I was wearing just black or grey clothes, made my eyes extremly black, had dark red lipstick, took jewlery that looked like if I wanted to say: "Look at me, I'm a rebel!" and than colored pants like green, yellow, red, purple and chucks... hahaha I was so weird back than... I even posted song-covers on Facebook, but my voice is creepy and I can't speak Japanese or Korean, so everytime I coome back to it, I feel like if it wasn't me who did it back than... haha, but I'm still a little weirdo. Last year for example I walked to the next train station in my town dressed in a yukatata (because I wanted to go to the biggest festival abaout the Japanese culture, that we have here in Europe, wich is held in a German city around 300km away from me...) and everyone was looking at me like: "Dafuq ya wearing gurl?" and I was looking back at them like: "Look at all the fucks I give!-NONE!!"
My cringe faze: My passport photo. It is the worst saddest thing on this earth. I lost it once and went to go retrieve it but the photo now looks nothing like me as I was 20kg heavier, had a bad tan, and super short white hair. This old security guard was questioning if I was originally a guy I was just like..☹️🙄🙄🙄
My most cringe worthy time is when I was really open with being a fantasy lover and I wore this dragon necklace every day (even though it turned me green) and carried a wand and ughhhh God what a terrible time lmao. I love the real Taylor we see now. The stuff before isn't real and I wouldn't be a subscriber. I originally subscribed to follow another jvolgger but I stayed because you're an honest to God hilarious, real person.
I love hoe much you've grown girl! That other stuff was pretty cringy but everyone goes through their phases though so no judgment at all! But so glad to see you grow!
Taylor, you have no idea. I had this huge faze in which I wanted to be 'different' from all the girls at my school, so I got a pixie cut and always wore mismatched clothing, such as 2 different earrings or bright suspenders or different long socks. Looking back at it, it just hurts to see how much effort I put into something just to feel special, oh my goodness. Later I just accepted who I was, and now my style is very girly and cute.
everyone's got their own phases and growth. The fact that we look back and cringe on things we've made in the past shows that we've done our job of learning and improving. We know what went wrong and what not to repeat. It's great! I like this taylor more and that's why I keep coming back.
I appreciate your honesty and vulnerability showing the behind the scenes as your figured out how to make videos and where you wanted your channel to go
i totally prefer you now. tbh you were super cringe and i wasnt into the obvious fakeness. i found you while you were transitioning into who you are now and i found a lot of websites basically trashing you. you seemed chill so i stayed to see how you became and im so happy i did. you are much more real and i like that.
AWWWW TAYLOR I think you look soooo adorable in all those old videos!!! I just wanna pinch your cheeks! Haha you are still so adorable, just in a different way! :D
2006-2007 first year of college I went through a bit of an emo phase back when myspace, back combing and heavy eyeliner was cool hahah. Thank god I found the light! :D
I admire her for being this honest. It's proof of how much she's grown as a confident individual. It takes a lot of gut to do what she did in this video.
Mariam Abdullah hey another Mariam here 😂😂❤
Mariam Ahmed and another one! 👋🏽
Mariam Abdullah the three of you, your name is mariam/maryam and your surname starts with an 'a'
another meryem
I mean, this is kinda true but people are almost making it sound like she committed a crime. I think it's cute and funny, but not to this extent of dramatic.

@@sherilynl4038 lmao yeah but taylor was a 25 year old grown ass woman. Nonetheless i get what you mean about adolescents and phases
It would have been incredibly cringey even if she had been a adolescent at the time.... Doing something that extreme as a hobby just for personal enjoyment would be a different story but that's not what she was doing. She completely immersed herself in being a fake person living a fake life and tried to make everybody think that's who she was.

I live for Taylor roasting herself omfg
She gets it from her Nana
My worst phase was when I liked this boy from Argentina and I suddenly became argentinian even tho I'm not from there . I started to even speak Spanish with an Argentinian accent just to impress him ...... He never liked me back 😥😥😥
LMAOOO this is so awesome
oh no… that’s embarrassing boludo
do not delete the bedroom tour it's the reason I found you and became a subscriber
Olivet Russell Same
same
Olivet Russell same here, I love those videos - they're cute!
Olivet Russell same
Same
you should do a parody of your old bedroom tour video lol. make it extra cringy and hide photos of depressed rosie every where lol
yes pleaseee!
I was going to say the same thing! It would be so funny to see her make a parody video.
Juanny Lion YES
yesss
omg yesssssssss
I prefer you now, 283893 times more. I love how real u are, it's a lot more relatable. 😊
The "cringe" videos were basically like performance art. I never thought that this was actually a 100% representation of your life. I thought they were cute. Really enjoy the videos where we get to see more of real life though. Our styles change or at least they should.

It’s not cringe
You were «cringey» back when I was and I loved your style and was so jealous, but I stopped watching you when I changed. One day I came back and you had Also changed so now I watch you again :))
Taylor is so genuine like ?
I remember seeing the bedroom tour a long time ago and think ... damn.. this is cringe af.
And I found her channel again not knowing it was the same person. Shes grown so much and she's so much more genuine now ❤️
Same! I had somehow seen the room tour before and stumbled across her RUclips again. It took me a few videos until I realized it was the same person. She was talking about her old phase in one and it hit me. Insane. I like both styles but she is more authentic now. You can tell.
Same
Eri Kason omg same and after watching her now i still thinks shes still cute and cool 🤗
It's so awesome that elbow san stuck by you through that phase and he didn't stop liking you x3
we've actually been through a lot together! One of the reasons I love him!
hi taylor r
Crimson Slayer that was fun （＞ｙ＜）i find you through ur cute videos so iloved u in both ways but i prefer you now the chilled normal everyday tay 😀
didn't he meet her in that phase tho lol
taylor how old are you and did you work ? im arabic
Current you is so much more likeable. I remember I watched one of your videos back then and I was like ugh this chick is trying so hard. But last year I watched one of your vlogs and I was like huh, she seems much more natural now and became a subscriber
Daph Duck uiiohvvk
Same i didn’t even realize they were the same person at first
Daph Duck I totally agree!
I think lolita inspired fashion is adorable but honestly I've always been creeped out by fake doll personas, so i much prefer you now
Yeah it is very fetish-istic.
Its kind of like Venus Angelic's transformation only sped up. It took her far longer to be less cringey, it only took you a couple of years.
I had a 'sporty hip hop' phase thanks to britney spears and when I look back at the pictures I literally want to eject out of planet Earth
I had the dark/goth one. Lol
I had a religious phase when I entered my religious high school. I stop after 3 years since I look kinda different than others. When I look back, I don't regret it but people around me keep pointing it out and that makes me embarrassed 😌 I'm still quite religious now but not too much like my old self 😂
Well 3 years later but that sure sounds fun
I liked watching you when you were girly. But now you're such an inspiration and someone to admire, which I didn't feel before your transformation. I definitely love you the way you are now Tay! so relatable and down to earth ♡♡
Evana aaa its like the difference between a character and the real person. I can appreciate both, but the real thing is way better.
Evana aaa I want to like your comment, but it falls on 666. I dont want to spoil that
I love how you're so honest and transparent instead of trying to pretend you never went thorugh the same type of phases most of us do to some degree and in some way at some point! :)
I think it would be cool for you to do a 100% speaking Japanese video again! Maybe update your Japanese learning video, etc.? Especially since you've been there for a while. :}
Love the new Tay-Tay! The bedroom one might be the cringiest one for me too. Lol
She's said that the only language she knows in English. She knows very little Japanese and Cantonese.
Stephanie Graham I know, I've watched her since her first couple videos on YT. I just think it would be cool to see an updated version of one she did a long time ago.
Stephanie Graham she can't speak japanese that good, so why does she live in Japan? sorry I don't know much about her
You really don't have to know Japanese to live in Japan. It's very foreigner friendly. She's from Canada, moved to China to do modelling. Moved to Japan, worked as a model. She used to be super in to Otaku culture (dressing super kawaii, doing videos in Japanese) but you can't see a lot of those videos anymore. She's grown up a lot since then but has stayed in Japan because she likes it there. Now she does youtube as her main career with occasional modelling. She used to have a Japanese tutor but with RUclips being her job she doesn't really NEED to know Japanese fluently anymore.
I wonder if dakota rose will do one of these vids when she gets over her phase 😁😂
Shaney Waney you should check out her origins tbh
Omg yessss 😂😂
hahahahahhahahahah yes
Yasssss
I thought Taylor was hers and I was like "no ok lol Taylor's family is normal?"
I remember My Emo phase...then I wanted to be kawaii.. LOL kms
Dancing Elbow-san is adorable. He's so supportive
Please do how i met my boyfriend tag 😭💖💖💖

"So it attracted you at first?"
"Ugh.." i laughed so hard
Pelita Antoni I though I was the only one I died
hahah Taylor's own version of try not to cringe challenge Elbow San is the greatest person ever you chose well Taylor XD I can't believe he did all of that for you
Fancy Nancy TV omg I am ur fan!!! Nancy happy to see ur comment
when I first discovered you it was back in your kawaii days and I thought you were so cute and perfect! it's so weird to see you expose all of the stuff going on behind the camera because I spent so much time watching your videos amazed that you had moved to Japan and learned so much Japanese, and thinking you were so perfect and wishing I was like you. I love how you are now a lot better, now you feel like a friend rather than a perfect doll, but I've always loved you nonetheless 💓
So cute I love it I've been watching all your videos 😍
I thought you were Dakota Rose for the longest
Heartluxe omg i just realized shes not the same person i thought Dakota rose old videos was part of her phase omgg
I really like the *current* you; you're much more of a relatable person. In particular, it is great seeing your personality come out and I like how genuine you are with your insecurities.
The 5AM tone that elbow san used at 6:11 made me laugh so hard because it was so obvious that he didn't liked it😂😂😂
LOL 😂😂😂
You and elbowsan have been together for so long! i never knew
cringe = wearing skirts over long pants...i thought i looked so cute -_-
I could write a whole book series about my cringiest experience in life and I'm only twenty ^^'
Alisha Maya I know right, same here
Alisha Maya tell me your cringiest experience
meeeeeeee
I could write one too and I'm only 13 😅
I can too x'D and same, 20 :')
I DONT FEEL LIKE THERE WAS ANYTHING WRONG WITH YOU BEFORE youre cool now, but before you were cool too
Young Eun Ko agree
"You're so fake baaaybee"
- Elbow San 2017
I like present Taylor more. You've become more yourself and your videos don't feel forced and more like you are having fun.
It's funny because I remember when I had that "doll phase" too. I remember watching that specific bedroom tour video and being so inspired by it because my makeup and style was so much like yours now I look back on it and wonder why I acted and looked so cringe c': I still love the dolly look but more realistically. Cheers to growing up Taylor c,: 💖💖
Destiny Godwin what made her change from dolly look to now? And what did she do in japan? (im new and curious to know :>)
Wait how long have Taylor and Elbow-San been dating?
Sammi Lin I think 3 years...
Sammi Lin the fuck?!
maybe since 2014 or 2013
I'm pretty sure they were dating when she's still modeling in hong kong
still, so many years if mystery 😂 when will we ever see elbow san?!?
It's funny, I remember coming across you when you were in that doll phase and not liking it and scrolling past your content. Years later, with your genuine style and personality now, I'm a new fan. I actually didn't realize you were that person until this video!
Stfu
You weren't at the gym but at least your nose was running.
Nelly H BAHAHAHAHA WTF
That's hilarious! 😂😂😂
Actually the cringiest bedroom video brought me to your channel. I saw it and I was like WTF so I clicked on the next video which was pretty awesome, and so I stayed ^^
SuperJosQ same. Without it I wouldn't know who taylor is
SuperJosQ i was in my "i want to be dakota koti" phase so when i found it I was like "omg she's perfect too" and instantly subscribed
Same!
I sometimes dress in doll style clothes in America but it's so different from sweats a and skinny jeans everyone else wears so I usually draw attention to myself when I'm actually really introverted😂 anyways I think you can pull off any style perfectly!!!
Carmela Goble SAME
lol right? I live in New Jersey not even 20 mins from where the Jersey Shore was filmed so almost everyone here my age wants a tan, big lips and butt. Its the complete OPPOSITE of Japan
Carmela Goble haha I'm introverted and shy too (not that bad tho) but I actually kind of like the attention haha except I don't dress like a doll
Me too mostly I get compliments from little girls, other people into jfashion, and even some Japanese tourists once
bunni babie lol don't forget like really old people who compliment
Taylor💙I love both of your styles but I prefer your new transformation. You're always so cute. &Watching your videos can always inspired me to be more positive. I'm your fans from Macau😛🙌🏻 (Sorry for my poor English)
I have been watching her old video after going through her recent one I can say she changed so much I never thought she was like this and into Japanese fashion or anime style but she changed for good and show her real personality and be herself that I found more easier to watch.
I believe that room tour was how I got introduced to your channel. Years later your channel got recommended again and the content about living in Japan, intrigued me.
Was nice to see you guys flourish and going through that pregnancy hassle and finally having a beautiful healthy child
Love from Belgium x
Your edits are so hilarious XD and hahaha Elbow-san "You're so fake babe"
"I won't delete it because it's probably the video I get the most money for." haha totally understand why, though. the bedroom video is creepy af but I've always been impressed by how much effort you put into it. even more so now that I know you even had your teacher help you with your Japanese. ;)
I love the dance videos though. I'm a fan of dance covers and I did some myself, too. :)
I really love how honest you are about this! Not everyone would admit to trying to be perfect and trying to create a certain image etc. It's really refreshing :)
私はこのころのテイラーちゃんも大好きだから、どうかご自分のことをバカにして笑わないでください😢I really like this time's you, so don't make fun of yourself😢
Your bedroom tour video was amazing. You looked so much like a doll - its fascinating. Its great that you have evolved and grown up. It would have been weird if you'd stayed the same.
" You're so fake babe"
I'm laughing so hard 😂 Elbowsan is so funny
"im such a fake beeyatch" LMAOOOO I LOVE U 😂😂😂
and yeah i had a major cringe phase when i was 14-15 years old i was such a scene kid wannabe 😂 except i really sucked at it just imagine a small eyed asian girl with rimless spectacles, a mullet that was really poofy and hard from hairspray and a purple tank top with jeans and red flats. and i was obsessed with fred (the youtuber) =_= i still rmb doing his catchphrases "HEYYYY ITS FREDDD WAHTSUP HOMIE G" "I NEED MY MEDSSS" oml what dark years
Faelan L Omg same, I went through an emo/scene phase too! Oh lord what dark days LOL
old taytay was cute, but i like how real you are now, it feels like you connect more with your audience now and i really like it c:
taylor : did you like this style?
Tom : (feel the danger ) mmmm I like it
Taylor : well you were attracted to me with this style … and now?
Tom : ( danger danger red alert) mmmm I like both
😂😂😂😂
Hahaha ❤
Anyone who's into women looking like little girls have serious serious issues.
I love how you are being so real and are able to laugh and talk about yourself. That's like maaaaad maturity and sophistication --TEACH ME! Sooooo happy that you are staying true, happy and comfortable with yourself. ❤️
Even at really bad days, your video make me smile ! I found your channel because I wanted to watch Japanese RUclipsrs or RUclipsrs living in Japan. I like both Tay, and you didn't looked cringe, being cute is not cringe, it is just different than Western culture.
It's fun to be a princess even if it's just for a little while, sometimes interests move on and it's always better to focus on what you're passionate about :) I like seeing both 2015 and 2017 Taylor, your early videos were really creative, even if following trends, fake-ish and maybe a little cringe now, you put the effort in to make the videos and that's important. You're awesome Taylor, ty for all your hard work! Hope you're feeling better soon :)
FIVE A M 😂👌🏻👌🏻
+Sharmander that's love right there 😝😅
Sharmander hellooo
Sharmander if it makes you feel any better I woke up at 2 in the afternoon (an hour ago) it's a one off though I swear :p
I'm 4.50 AM....does that count? It's fairly close!
When I had a long sleep I always think that it is morning somethere at the earth!
I don't have a phase... my entire life is cringe!
Same, my friend, same.
I seriously love how honest you are, i wish that I’ll be able to be that accepting and modest with myself. I remember watching one of your videos back then and being like ‘ew yuck’ but now I can tell you matured so much, that is so inspirational
I used to be super obsessed with looking depressed (that rhymes) like every picture I took I would like crease my eyebrows up to look more sad and then id never smile. I did that bc I wanted people to ask if I was ok. #dramaqueen. I also hated my self and liked to tell everyone I was ugly. Emo stage...
That's not just an emo stage...that's actually pretty normal for a teenage girl. You feel bad inside and you just want someone to notice. I decided to stop talking when I was 16...that didn't last a day!
indiciaobscure
Nah, thats definitely an emo stage
indiciaobscure I’m a teenage girl and my friends and I don’t do that. It’s definitely an emo stage
Oh babe you were so mean and rude to yourself:( it wasn't that bad pretty, and you don't have to explian nothing, that phase it is part of you, and you were so freaking cute chica;(❤
margot cst that's such a wounderful thing to say
aaaah i love both styles and those videos are the reason i know who you are :3 i love how chill you are now.. you're literally my favourite youtuber lol, but i also loved how cute your videos were before
Tay Ayase Same
I love how confident you are in yourself that you can look and laugh at this so openly. I'd never heard of you before this really long, weird youtube journey I've been on for the past 5 hours, but you've got a new sub :)
That's the style that attracted you to me at first...
Elbow-san: eeehh... *silence *
😂😂😂
I really liked that room tour video. Its in my playlist.
me too ;3
please do a boyfriend tag！！！
Yijin Chang yeah! That would be really cool! :D
I found your channel when you were were dressing in dolly style, because I like that style too! Your channel has definitely changed a lot since then. Those videos were not that "Cringeworthy" or terrible, and I honestly liked them more than the videos you make now
>.< It's good that you were able to get this off your chest, if you felt like you needed too- also that you're not making content that makes you feel fake or embarrassed.
Your doll character is a great character. Asian opera traditonally dress performer up like that. You could have kept that character as part of your channel while simultaneously doing Taylor vlog no conflict at all
Your boyfriends is such a down to earth Asian dad vibe
Taylor, you are not alone. The amazingly cringy things I did in my past (like wearing eyeshadow even beyond my eyebrow and think that I look sexy) will be haunting my memories forever
+Sofia P hehe I would love to see a pic of that! 👍🏻
Taylor R テイラー deleted every single one of them 😇😇
You blushed for the whole video 😳 but elbow San really love you. Even though you've changed so much! It means he loves you in person but not for your appearance. But your hair before looked really shinny.
the bedroom is the worst one! and yes, my worst phase was my skater punk phase! i couldn't even skate 😂 then Avril Lavigne happened and I immediately quit that look lolol
Valencia Dover I love Avril....
Golden Rose that's cool
lmao, and I started that phase _after_ Avril, wich is worse!! I would pretend to skate, I would wear ties, I.. can't keep talking, I'm cringing too hard here honest to god. I seriously think I'd puke if I had to rewatch me at that age lmao
yup same 😂 i even bought a skateboard that i never used just to look the part 😑
Valencia Dover I totally wore olive green skate shoes to prom under my knee length dress. lmao. omg. /criiinge
I had a satanic phase in Freshman year of high school. I'm going to be a senior in August and I still cringe at all the shit I did and said.
I Love Ryan Magee lol
Mrs. Cullen Rutherford s-satanic?
A fluffy puff yes darling. Public school in America really wears on you...
@@kaelynmynhier2406 tru
Whatever your idea of being Satanic was was most likely extremely inaccurate because Satanists are rarely scary or even disagreeable, let alone evil. You might want to do some research on the topic. People have some really absurd misconceptions. You know who you pretty much never see in the news for doing horrible things? Satanists. You know who you see in the news for doing horrible things literally every day? Christians.
When I see your videos, I honestly enjoy the little moments when the light shines in your eyes because your best friends hang out with you or do something for you. I've never been more sad realizing that I don't have friends like that, but it also gives me inspiration to find true friends who I can trust and will be happy with me. Keep up the awesome videos.
my cringe phase: my first year of high school. year 7 was NOT a good year LMAO
WhoIsKayla lol me too. Year 7 was so not my year...
Cat Meowb honestly, I don't think year 7 is anyone's year lmao if people get out of the first year of high school WITHOUT any cringe worthy memories or pics, I reckon they're very lucky HAHAH
Saaaaame 😂 I remember being "emo". Sooooo cringy.
omg same here...i wish year 7 never happened.
Priscy123 I FEEL YA
yes you were terribly fake but thank god you are cool now XD
I'm fortunate enough not to have any videos of my teenage years. Thank goodness! Bless you Taylor!
You have matured soo much! I have been watching you for YEARS, since these cute doll videos were your main vibe. I love how you grew!
I've had so many different phases in my life..."skater fashion", emo, scene, kinda a mix of emo and goth, hippie, androgyny, grunge, then i tried mixing both feminine and masculine styles (like wearing a skirt with a boyish shirt), and slowly i started wearing more and more dresses/skirts and now my style is kinda a mix of a few styles but mostly kawaii, doll, korean, harajuku, childish, kinky, all pastel colors and my favorite color combination is pink and white.
Tbh yes, i was cringey at some phases (mostly the emo one probably) but i don't regret anything i did because even if it was cringey, fashion always helped me express myself and made me happier and feel better about myself.
I now get more stares/comments about my current style more than ever, some are good comments and some are bad, but i just ignore them because i love what i wear, i feel beautiful, i feel happy, and that's what really matters.
Nothing bad in change as long as it isn't in a negative way. Definitely the bedroom is cringe lol But I like this new Taylor better now than before Taylor. You seem more relaxed and chill. Keep up the great work! :) Love your vids.
You looked like Dakota Rose, but waaaaaaaaay cuter!!!
I've been waiting for this like forever Taylor your videos are the reason why I smile whenever I feel stressed I'll just click to one of your videos. I love u Taylor ❤️
red Velvet 레! 드! 벨! 벳!
Tacko AYEEEEEEEEEEE IM A PROUD REVELUV
red Velvet me too b****
Loved the character Sailor Moon and collected those dolls. So you aren’t alone😂❤️👍
I'm still in the cringe phase tbh
Cahdmus at least your self aware
are you out of it?
I've been in this mental funk for years but I alternate between this high-class smart super groomed look and then this messy wild hippy beach bum look..... Haha my family joke about which me is going to turn up at Easter/Christmas etc 😂
Subscribed during the Kawaii phase and still here 🌸
Im half Japanese but not gonna lie i kinda had a cringe/awkward stage too xD ahaha we all go through them!!!! I love you so much now though!! Nothing against the old you, but your....more true to yourself now~? natural? and so funny!!! Never stop being yourself! love you so much Tay~! xx
Hahaha I'm a 21 German and had the same phase like taylor but with the fact that I couldn't afford wigs or Japanese clothing and than I went trought the shops here in Germany and bought everything wich had Japanese ltters on it or was an extremly cute thing hahah and than Ionce had the day to do my hair like if I was in Japan and just 5 hairclips but my whole class made fun of me asking if I could fit more hairclips on my head back than >.< I'm a bit still like this, but not more that extremly weird, because as I was around 15-17 I had no idea what to do with myself and yeah... in that age my dayli makup for example included the brightest makup I could find, 1-3cm big white shimery kajal under my eye, a lot of light pink and white eyeshadow, glittering eyeliner, a lot of light pink or peach colored lipgloss, a lot of blush and many pastel colored nail polish, cute dresses with butterflys or small flowers on it,... and than I had that kinda phase sometimes between where I was wearing just black or grey clothes, made my eyes extremly black, had dark red lipstick, took jewlery that looked like if I wanted to say: "Look at me, I'm a rebel!" and than colored pants like green, yellow, red, purple and chucks... hahaha I was so weird back than... I even posted song-covers on Facebook, but my voice is creepy and I can't speak Japanese or Korean, so everytime I coome back to it, I feel like if it wasn't me who did it back than... haha, but I'm still a little weirdo. Last year for example I walked to the next train station in my town dressed in a yukatata (because I wanted to go to the biggest festival abaout the Japanese culture, that we have here in Europe, wich is held in a German city around 300km away from me...) and everyone was looking at me like: "Dafuq ya wearing gurl?" and I was looking back at them like: "Look at all the fucks I give!-NONE!!"
AHAH omg love it!!!
My cringe faze: My passport photo. It is the worst saddest thing on this earth. I lost it once and went to go retrieve it but the photo now looks nothing like me as I was 20kg heavier, had a bad tan, and super short white hair. This old security guard was questioning if I was originally a guy I was just like..☹️🙄🙄🙄
LOL OH lord
kairi chan You made my day
My most cringe worthy time is when I was really open with being a fantasy lover and I wore this dragon necklace every day (even though it turned me green) and carried a wand and ughhhh God what a terrible time lmao.
I love the real Taylor we see now. The stuff before isn't real and I wouldn't be a subscriber. I originally subscribed to follow another jvolgger but I stayed because you're an honest to God hilarious, real person.
I love hoe much you've grown girl! That other stuff was pretty cringy but everyone goes through their phases though so no judgment at all! But so glad to see you grow!
Taylor, you have no idea. I had this huge faze in which I wanted to be 'different' from all the girls at my school, so I got a pixie cut and always wore mismatched clothing, such as 2 different earrings or bright suspenders or different long socks. Looking back at it, it just hurts to see how much effort I put into something just to feel special, oh my goodness. Later I just accepted who I was, and now my style is very girly and cute.
I used to like you when you looked like that, to be honest :D it's been amazing to see your radical change haha ✨💙
Marina b Samee
everyone's got their own phases and growth. The fact that we look back and cringe on things we've made in the past shows that we've done our job of learning and improving. We know what went wrong and what not to repeat. It's great! I like this taylor more and that's why I keep coming back.
The first video i watch of you was the bedroom one and i thought it was really cute... i actually like both💗✨
I appreciate your honesty and vulnerability showing the behind the scenes as your figured out how to make videos and where you wanted your channel to go
i really like your new Style, you look more natural and I like your voice more than in your old videos
i totally prefer you now. tbh you were super cringe and i wasnt into the obvious fakeness. i found you while you were transitioning into who you are now and i found a lot of websites basically trashing you. you seemed chill so i stayed to see how you became and im so happy i did. you are much more real and i like that.
AWWWW TAYLOR I think you look soooo adorable in all those old videos!!! I just wanna pinch your cheeks! Haha you are still so adorable, just in a different way! :D
Your bedroom tour and back then Rosie is what got me to watch your videos!
2006-2007 first year of college I went through a bit of an emo phase back when myspace, back combing and heavy eyeliner was cool hahah. Thank god I found the light! :D
