Breaking news: man who spends all of his time on the internet is average looking
*a racist average looking man
Who would've thought 😱
I mean...c'mon guys...his name is clay.. CLAY. he definitely looks like his name 💀💀💀
Omg what, I thought he was gonna be Harry styles 😱
@@_salemtovar_ GURL BYE IMAOOOO 💀
Smartest thing I'd ever heard was: "Insulting the features of someone who doesn't care will not hurt them, but loved ones around you with those features now know what you think of them."
Wow never heard this before but it hits
Yeah that's what I thought about
finally, a good wisdom
YES
This mindset is what made me feel more at peace with how I look. I don't insult my own face because there are so many people who have the same ethnic features as me (I'm Chinese). Insulting myself is like insulting everyone who looks like me.
About a Corpse face reveal, I think many people forget or are not aware he is physically disabled. He has mentioned that's why there is an eyepatch on all his avatars, and that it has previously been kind of damaging to his self-esteem. Based on the reaction to an average looking guy that has not based his platform on being (or sounding) attractive, I don't think Corpse will ever reveal his face. Honestly, I don't think it is a gamble worth taking because it could not only actually affect his earnings, but I think it could be disastrous for his mental health. People don't realize how much of what we collectively consider to be attractive is based in covert bigotry such as ableism.
His face was already leaked
@@precious1918 what?
@@precious1918 Don’t go telling ppl that, literally you didn’t have to spread this around
@@precious1918 and that’s called doxxing
@@AlvinaYunoa it already got hundreds of thousands of likes on twitter and millions of views on RUclips. Me showing 5 people in a comment section won’t do anything.
I swear, people don't know what a human being is supposed to look like anymore...
Agreed! Everyone is beautiful in their own way
I agree... but the pre-face reveal stuff him and his friends did kinda fueled this. We all know what a human is supposed to look like, but when you say all these things making him not be a human, like he was carved out of diamonds, then it is expected to get a reaction that doesn't equate to normal. 100% that being mean IS NOT okay but what do you expect from 1. the internet and 2. making unrealistic expectations.
He looks a lot better than some people in the world. Personally my face looks like a botched plastic surgery but genetics aren't my fault sooo
yeah this generation needs to touch grass
I think Dream was in a losing situation no matter what because he already had tons of people who hated him. I remember Twitter gearing up to drag him long before the face reveal was even confirmed. Point is, he could have looked like a supermodel and still get dragged because he already had haters who were then emboldened by the hype he created. That's why many of those memes felt like they were overcompensating and trying too hard, because I truly think he just looks normal.
"Bullying people for their appearance is justified if they're a bad person"
Every regular nice person who shares Dream's physical features: 😐😐😐
I mean dream is actually just a bad person
@@idkimtired7898 the point is that someone else could look like him and be a good person, so instead of tearing down his looks, why not tear down his actions?
@@Alsyoutubeaccount Sorry I didn't do good enough of explaining in my comment I don't mean that he should be made fun of for this looks but actions he has had include: homophobia, racism, and ableisim.
@@Anirexxic I don't mean it's okay to make fun of him for his actions but he is a bad person in general
@@idkimtired7898 He isn't any of those things you guys take every joke someone makes literally it's not that deep.
bro people’s reaction to the face reveal is PROBABLY PART OF WHY HE DIDNT REVEAL HIS FACE AND WHY CORPSE ISNT GOING TO REVEAL HIS FACE EITHER WTF
agreed, I feel a lot of decent streamers/influencers/gamers are NOT gonna want to show their face after this fiasco.
its almost like hes a racist lgbtphobic ableist groomer crazy
Corpse might have thought about it a time or two but this whole thing with Dream has guaranteed put the fear of gawd into that man. The internet will have to pry his face out of his cols dead hands.
i hope corpse doesn’t show his face. i heard he’s already struggling,soooo
Yeah corpse is defiantly not going to do a face reveal after this. Especially because of all the people sexualizing him for his voice/hands there going to destroy his life is he isn’t perfect lol
Doing a face reveal for stans is the equivalent of seeing a movie made of your favourite book. The movie never measures up. You always have a picture in your head of how the main character will look and any differences feel very strange. So stans are struggling to reconcile the mental image they have of him with his true image. It doesn’t excuse fans being assholes but yeah.
This is the perfect analogy
never thought about it in that way wow
@@Tony-ke2fs I was thinking this! The first thing that came to mind was kakegurui for me lol
Yes but however a movie is supposed to be fictional art, not a regular human being so your explanation is correct but this is just a dude who plays games like
@@Tony-ke2fs I understand that, that makes sense.
Honestly this the perfect example of how the internet is based around pretty culture. If you are not conventual attractive the internet goes into making fun of you so fast. I completely agree with everything you said about how it's utterly nasty how people are reacting to Dream's face reveal.
Omg, reading this comment was a bit of a blackpill. That’s exactly how it is and yet it never seems to change
But dream isn’t unattractive which is what’s weirding me out
But Ethan Klein made a whole vid body shaming Tana and Trisha with millions of views and he barely got backlash. Save ur selective outrage
i see where ur coming from but thats a whole different issue that doesnt apply here, people just set their expectations way too high tbh
@@clubkiddxx I’m pointing out there are instances where millions of ppl online find body shaming acceptable. tbf there are def ppl that would’ve made fun of his looks regardless solely because of his bigoted past. It’s very common for ppl to be insulted for perpetuating bigotry. That plays a huge factor in this specific case. Ethan’s vid does relate to this topic because both involve problematic ppl online being body shamed. If u enjoyed that Ethan vid u can’t critique dream being body shamed. It’s hypocritical
i actually kind of hope Corpse just never reveals his face? cause damn, people are going to be horrible to him. people are flat out expecting him to be hot and they will blame him for not meeting their subjective expectations. so i just hope he avoids this kind of bullhonky
corpse isnt as problematic, so i doubt hes gonna get hated much
@@nyanperonyan5692 maybe you're right but I feel like there are enough people who have distorted expectations for his looks to make it unpleasant for him. The many people who find his voice really hot have probably built an idea of him in their minds to fit that and would be disappointed if he turned out to be anything but super hot to them.
I’m sure his tween fan base is gonna turn on him because he doesn’t look like an anime boy. A good amount did after someone “leaked” his face and it wasn’t who they expected. I don’t know if it was actually him but either way their reaction was beyond disappointing. 😒
@@adamlambboy8332 i remember that - it doesnt particularly matter to me if it was his face or not, but for his sake i hope it wasn't, since it wasn't something done out of his choice. It's mindboggling just how much people hinge their infatuation of a person - that they dont actually know - on a fantasy of them. Salem is definitely right in tryint to tell people to ground themselves in reality.
@@nyanperonyan5692 honestly, i think he would get as much vitriol. The only difference is that people wouldnt be able to use a problematic past as an excuse to be vitriolic. But they would definitely try to come up with an excuse either way.
i genuinely think the hate train of dream's looks consists of 2-3 camps:
1. shallow/mentally underdeveloped preteens upset with how dream's face doesnt fit their made up dream face
2. people who are tired of dream stans (especially on twitter) and hopped on the train to make fun of the stans alongside the creator that did nothing about the stans' toxicity
3. twitter users coming along just bc its funny
And the fact that dude is racist homophobic and a groomer
I honestly feel bad, he looks fine. People wouldn’t have had this reaction if he had always shown his face but since he didn’t fans started to build their own ridiculous expectations and expected that he’d look like a supermodel.
Edit: y’all I’m not trying to defend him for being racist, I’m saying I feel bad about people being so fixed on others appearances, also I hadn’t heard about him being racist until I watched this video so I’m sorry if it comes off as me blindly defending him, I commented this the second I got the notification so I hadn’t even gotten to that part of the video yet. I don’t even watch dream anyways.
@UC3B1ZKAewDBNmJY-oEDap3Q no he isn’t.
hard to feel bad for someone who's been ableist, groomed people, racist, and so much more
Exactly
This is why I hope Corpse NEVER shows his face. The amount of fanart of him being this really hot guy makes the expectations SO high. No doubt in my mind he looks like an average guy at most.
Wrong literally no one would have this reaction if him and his friends didnt hype him up like he was some super model.
This is so weird to me. Dream IS conventionally attractive by most standards. He doesn't look like a Viking, bodybuilder or supermodel - but why would he? He's quite young & is a gamer/ RUclipsr. He's not someone who's working on her appearance all day long. Tbh if someone is shaming this thin WM, who has every type of privilege imaginable.. they've got a lot to learn about the world
My first thought was that he looks like a vampire boy from some teen's show lol. He is pretty, I'm so confused by people's reaction lol wtf.
THANK YOU I’ve been here like “wait he’s not attractive? what were these people expecting then??”
@@hanac5586 “he’s pretty” that was literally my first thought when I watched his vid. He could totally play a vampire. His eyes are pretty. And I don’t really care bout the dude 😭
@@murphie_4559 but that’s exactly why you think that: bc you don’t care about him. The people overreacting are hardcore fans who only cared abt the mystery face behind the mask

@@_salemtovar_ WoW!!! I was NOT expecting thatttt! Congrats!!! Bless you, live a happy married life!!
@@_salemtovar_ congrats
I didn't know about this man's existence until this face reveal mess... But I definitely felt bad for him because I was like "he's literally normal?". Like they literally were acting like he's an ogre or something... Also his fans really did put the bar very high!
I'm glad you're showing your face again, your avatar is hella cute too! ❤️ Thank you for this video! People don't know what normal people look like nowadays 💀💀💀
frr tho. he looks so normal. i see no reason to complain
and even if he doesn’t “look normal” people still shouldn’t act like trash
@@yeet8627 true because he doesn't, if he was an average white dude he'd be fine but his face looks off
don't feel bad for him, he's an awful person
@@highcolor_sunz you know him personally?
Another gamer that for a long time didn’t use facecam is RTGame, but his face reveal was super well received and everyone was super nice about it. He has openly expressed insecurity about his looks, especially his teeth, and everyone has been extremely welcoming and respectful since he decided to be a bit more open with his audience.
The reason I bring this up, is because I think target audience and demographic plays a HUGE roll into the reception of a face reveal. Daniel from RTGame isn’t amazingly attractive, he is an average white guy just like Dream. But the difference is that Dream has a larger, younger, more shallow and immature audience. His audience is also much more reactionary and toxic as we have seen with doxing and whatnot. So honestly, the reaction to his face reveal is unsurprising given the audience Dream has curated. In some ways, it is his own fault. Yeah, twitter took it and ran, but it is because Dream has created such a negative community so he has many people that hate him. Just my two cents on the matter.
THIS THIS THIS
this
Perfectly stated. He curated this immature/toxic fanbase. I wouldn’t have expected anything else from them tbh.
EXACTLY
I hate to be like "aCtUaLlY", but based on what I've heard from long time members of RTGame's community, his initial attempt at a face reveal actually didn't go too well.
But that was a long time ago, back when he made exclusively Team Fortress 2 videos. The TF2 community is known to be quite toxic, which only proves your point about the reaction being dependent on the type of community someone has curated. His current community is absolutely wonderful and I'm glad he's able to talk openly about his insecurities, without people making fun of his face and being unnecessarily rude.
This is the first time the internet has genuinely grossed me out. People are so vile. People get too comfortable knowing that they're behind screens and untouchable.
The FIRST time?? Were you not there when all of those female celebrities’ private nudes got leaked? Truly one of the lowest points in internet history that preceded this event by years..
HEYEYEYEYEYEYYY!! SO GLAD OT BE BACKKK!! I missed you all so much!! I had a lot of funn making this video, I just know the comments are gonna be spicy for this one lol. What are some topics I should talk on for next week?? Please let me know!
(also small note: any allegations against dream that was not on the first day of his face reveal will be mentioned in this video because of the video being filmed the day of the face reveal and not after when all the allegations came out, please be understanding that I am not an AI or time traveler!) thank you all for your love and support!
I have no idea what to ask you to talk abt but if I get any ideas by the end of the vid i will tell you :D
I was thinking about all the new thin obsession connected to the coming back of the y2k etc...all the tumblr girl era kind of coming back and so on
Maybe(?) Idk
Orrrrr
The cannibal armie hammer and his family
But tbh I watch all your videos, you can make even nikokado avokado seem an interesting topic
maybe a "quarantine's tiktok obsession: 2 years later" video! Reinspecting old trends from early quarantine, specifically ones from tiktok if you need to narrow it down, and seeing how they held up and such. It is a bit lighthearted but also could open up room for conversation about tiktok, how it began, and how it is currently going!
Hey salem!!it nice to see you again. Im hoping that you might make a video on the Jeffrey dahmer stuff going on !!theres more to this obviously but i don't wanna go and see all the tik tokers "flexing" and how the show didnt even bother asking the victims of their story.
Legit have been waiting for this since your community post!! I clicked so fast!!
The part where you mentioned to delete tiktok, ground yourself in reality; that's exactly what I did a few months ago. I realised that tiktok was hurting my mental health so bad. So bad to the point where it was warping my opinions on a lot of things. I wasn't my own person, my opinions, my vocabulary, even my personality was being shaped by that app. So then I deleted it. Haven't touched it since March. I'm much happier. I'm not wasting my days on Tiktok anymore for hours on end. I've found things, better, more productive things to spend my free time in. Hell, I've learned how to crochet, I redecorated my room, I'm taking care of myself more, I'm getting more work done. Tiktok is literally the devil. And deleting it has done so much for me.
👏👏👏 I downloaded tiktok ONCE to see what it was about, and when I realized I had already spent an HOUR scrolling random videos on it, and I thought it had been only 5 minutes, I deleted it and never looked back. It just steals your time!! You can never get those wasted hours back :/ most videos, you probably won't even remember in 1 year anyway, because your mind knows better and throws it away. Waste of time.
i deleted it too. my life has improved quite a bit since then. but even with deleting it, all other major social media platforms created their own version of it to cash in on the craze. it’s hard to avoid.
@@lushfawn so true :/ sometimes I open youtube on my phone and it goes straight to shorts (is this happening to anyone else too?)
Good for you! I’ve been without social media (except for RUclips) for almost a year now and it’s been one of the best decisions I’ve made in my life.
i deleted tiktok because of salems video essay on it!! she's really so enlightening on things. i love her
I don’t even watch dream but it’s upsetting that people aren’t treating him like a human :/
Edit: I just saw the part where Salem was talking about keeping it civil, can we stop the fighting in the comments? Or if it’s needed, can we do it in a civil way?
Fr
Ikr
Did he treat a black girl like a human when his fandom attacked her and doxxed her and said racial slurs and threats at her and he didn't care cause she didn't matter.
@@yesha3306 That’s awful!!! As previously stated I don’t really follow drama around him but I could see how things might be a bit justified. The fact that any of this is happening is just sad.
@@Commentingstuff don't believe anyone just look into it
I agree 100% that we are conditioned to expect everyone we encounter to look like models all of the time. A few years ago I went to the beach for the first time in several years and honestly got so anxious leading up to it because I was expecting everyone to have abs and perfect hair. No joke. I was so worried because I thought I was going to be the only one that didn’t meet those standards. I got there and was genuinely shocked when I saw that everyone was normal… it was a trippy experience
i get you...i feel like social media has warped our perception of how people are supposed to look.
Social media is honestly so scary. The fact that i was convinced that the people from my school will have alot of hot goth people in it is concerning. Glad it was wrong tho i wouldve felt so so insecure 💀💀
Maybe it's because I'm 31 and don't care much about looks anymore (I have made it very clear to the algorithm that I don't consider *pretty people being pretty* a good video), but the creators who come up on my TikTok fyp are all just normal looking people who are funny/good at cooking/know cool facts about plants/make music etc. It's possible that the algorithm does identify and promote pretty people, but for sure the biggest factor deciding what you see is your own engagement, so engage less with the content that's warping your perception of normal beauty (like choosing "not interested" on videos that make you feel shitty about yourself).
It doesn't take long to break out of the cycle of "they liked this so I'll show more of it until that's all they see" if you actively search for content and follow accounts that align with your interests. I prob sound so old LMAO but I haven't seen a TikTok dance video or lip sync video on my fyp in like a year bc the algorithm really does respond to what we like and dislike :)
This is a great example of touching some grass. We can so easily loose our sense of reality when we're constantly looking at "pretty" people.
He doesn’t even look bad, it’s the lighting, and it’s dark. 🤦🏽♀️ the internet is weird asf! Always talking about body positivity and shaming, yet so quick to do it.
The angle was really bad too
@@sweetbnuy i saw tons of videos talking about how he faked his face reveal and tho it sounded really stupid, I was a little confused why he looked like he couldn't move his neck. Just...jaw angle, like he couldn't show his whole face (not that it really matters)
@@Vesperad0 yeah well, that's a bit conspiracy theory like, i think he just thought that this was a good angle... Turns out it probably wasn't his best, not that i really see things about him, but that face reveal was impossible to run from
But Ethan Klein made a whole vid body shaming Tana and Trisha with millions of views and he barely got backlash. Save ur selective outrage
@@Dolphinboi he did get backlash though
The Keke Palmer lie detector quote will forever be one of my faves 😂👏🏽
Ok I am totally against how people have been blasting Dream for his looks (he looks totally normal to me imo and even if he didn't, that's no excuse for being nasty) but side note...what the heck was he thinking with the pre-face-reveal shenanigans?? ? Like what did he expect to happen? People's expectations were probably already going to be that he was baseline attractive because that's just how fans tend to be (I could write a whole book about how people feel that they're "owed" others' attractiveness for some reason), but then getting other influencers involved to raise the stakes even higher...not the smartest move, my guy.
Edit: Since I keep getting the same comments...I completely understand the idea of hyping the reveal up to get interest. When I said it wasn't smart of him, I was referring more to the fact that I think he set himself up for a negative reaction to the reveal. If he wanted a *positive* reaction to his face, I think his strategy was flawed. If he just wanted as many eyes on him as possible, then I think he succeeded.
dream didn't do it to raise the expectations. he pays attention to what brings hype. by having other influencers call him hot and posting it just a day before builds a ton more of hype, and dream already said in his face reveal video that he's grown to not care about what idiots say on the internet. he knew what to do to get excitement, and he got it.
@@cmar212 Hmm. Well I don't know anything about the guy so I didn't consider that aspect but I do hope that you're right that it isn't that serious to him. On the other hand I hope that most people who happen to look something like him and are observing the internet's reaction are similarly nonchalant. In any case it was certainly an interesting strategy.
I mean cause it cultivates hype and thus more views. I find it really weird and even unconfurtable how he manages to sells a face reveal, but that's what he's been doing for ages.
I feel you on the owed attractiveness.
"...not the smartest move"
Uhm... I beg to disagree
Dream is a guy who became successful in just a short period of time
He knows what will get him attention=views=money
Also, by FaceTiming his Friends (+ other Big Creators), Dream has helped them get Attention & also get attention for his Big Reveal
He clearly knows what he is doing
me and my friend always hated dream, probably since 2020, however all these people who started hating him because he isnt a toned chiseled man is so sad. it's basically saying "hey, I wouldn't have held him accountable if he was hot!"
So glad that you're feeling comfy enough to show your face again
If I were Corpse, I would go to the grave without doing a face reveal. His mental health just doesn't seem like it could take backlash to this level. Even if it was positive the amount of extra attention on his looks would probably feel really heavy to him.
I don't like Dream for what he has tweeted in the past but I agree that he shouldn't have been shamed for his appearance. It was too much.
What did he tweet?
@@Dolphinboi WHO?? 😭😭😭
What did he tweet
from what ive seen hes just said some ableist stuff i think but im not sure
ive also seen a clip of him defending his fans who doxxed a minor on twitter once.. so..

@@propogandalf it was flashed on 18:59 to 19:03 just pause to read them
Not his 12 year old to teenage fan base wanting him to look like a supermodel 😭 This is a big reason I don’t really think kids should have social media. If adults are the ones doing this, they should be ashamed of themselves. Real talk though, he is pretty cute and what mainly matters is his personality above all else.
It’s him and his friends fault for hyping it up so much 😂
He looks like a normal human
He literally looks like, a normal good looking dude. People are just clowing him because he’s famous and controversial 😂
But u same ppl wouldn’t care if he was called the f slur for what he did
@@Dolphinboi What are you talking about? His physical appearance is fine and isn’t associated with his actions. I would hope the same courtesy is applied to you if you ever did anything to hurt your reputation.
I agree, he’s not a bad looking guy not sure why people are so mad for no reason 😂
@@fromthemoonandmybed because dream and his friends have been hyping this up for so long we all thought the was gonna look good or something not some average ass dude , who looks like a gremlin who gets no sun light and doesn’t wash his ass

Personally he doesn't look bad to me.
He looks like a normal person. I don't watch dream and I don't know why it's so controversial but to put a person down because of their appearance is really wrong.
honestly i’d say he’s not even average like a slightly above
@@weedenjoyner Im not saying its an excuse but everyone seemed to miss the fact befor ehe revealed himself he and all of his buddies hyped him up like he was a super model so i think when he came out to show his face him being a normal person engaged the train of clowning his looks.
He looked normal to me until people started comparing him to Shane Dawson and now I can't unsee the resemblance 💀
Can you imagine looking kinda like DREAM and seeing half the internet shitting on someone who has similar features? I would cry myself to sleep for weeks
It saddens and sickens me that you get treated better if you're attractive. People deserve kindness and respect no matter what they look like.
A respectful and fair take, Salem. Thank you. Nice seeing ya face on vid today ✨
also as someone who doesn’t find themself attractive or cute, it hurts that people will just relentlessly roast someone for something they can’t control
Totally agree we shouldn't feel comfortable bashing someone's looks if they're awful for other reasons. Looks are irrelevant to what they did, so let's focus on the actual problem.
I also think this looks like a normal guy and people love to be dramatic on the internet for clicks ☺️
Exactly 💯
Girlie it's good to see you again! Looking gorgeous as ever 💝
Honestly, if Dream, the youtubers, and other influencers hadn't hyped up this face reveal to be some grand event, it probably would have lowered the chances of it being blown out of proportion. He set himself up. But then again, did he? At the end of the day, he secured his bag knowing people were going to tune in regardless if they were fans or not.
Would love for the people trolling and giving Dream hate to do their own face reveal to the entire internet. Let's see how they're rated.
Not a stan, just upset that, once again, people forget that the world doesn't revolve around their expectations
ikr it annoys me when stuff like this happens because they are the same people who claim to be an “accepting” generation 🥱
It's probably going to be the same story of "people online believe that they can be mean as much as they want because they think they are hidden behind their avatars and their accounts and therefore are free from consequences".
the jokes were funny at first but like the overt hatred gets old real fast. he kinda set himself up with how he facetimed a bunch of people to complement him before his reveal tho. that was just strange to me
Yes they hyped him up so much. You would think he looked like Henry cavil regardless he doesn’t deserve the hate.
I saw the reveal on twitter and was like “oh he’s kinda cute” then saw the comments, ooof
Same. And I HATE IT
He doesn’t look bad but ngl I won’t empathize with him because he did a lot of the same things to other people so it’s really really hard for me to think of anything but you get what you put out in the world.
What did he do to others?
@@raincandy3 he tweeted some questionable things ig. it was flashed on 18:59 to 19:03 just pause to read them

@@bigbawlzlebowski8886 I haven’t the time to argue, I’ll come back when I have a better response.
It's not his appearance that is weird, he is super nervous and uncomfortable on that shot, and the lighting could be much better. On top of that his audience's is not suited for a face reveal. Being just kids on the internet, Dream SMP community gave him typically immature idealistic features in their fanart. His situation is my worst nightmare tbh.
He's a nice looking average guy. I don't get it. I think most people with no makeup or extra styling look about the same level of attractiveness.
I didn't know who he was, but I saw some of the memes and my reaction was, "that's a normal guy, I don't get it."
I so agree that we shouldn't stoop to their level when holding someone accountable. I hate when people decide that it's okay to misgender, bodyshame, or discriminate against someone who has done wrong. That's like saying that you must earn the right to be regarded as human. If you do this, you will also disregard the humanity of a LOT of other people in the process. We can criticize people while still giving everyone basic human dignity and respect.
I’ve never watched dream before all this news about his face. He’s a handsome guy. I hate how disgusting people are being.
maybe he shouldnt have been racist and ableist and lgbtphobic and a groomer but hey what do i know
@@toyafan then ppl should criticize that and have him answer for that but it’s a low low to just automatically make fun of someone’s looks

As someone who experienced body shaming in a early part of my childhood (I am still in my childhood but in the middle of it and near to the end but there are still some years to it), I can say, I am also human yes you look great and all but what matters the most is the personality you have or the people you spend time together knowing that there are people that want to be your friends or just like you, nobody has to be perfect and no one is just be you, who you want to be, there may be people that don’t like you for who you are but know that there are people that also do like you for being yourself.
I’m so proud of you being able to show your face on camera again! Much love man I’ve been watching for a while ❤️❤️❤️
The Rumpelstiltskin memes were absolutely sending me. I will always remember the day of the dream face reveal my sides were cramping from laughter I kept refreshing my timeline for a good laugh ngl
Your energy is so nice! I'm glad the face break made you feel better and more confident it really shows you're so silly and fun in this one 💌 I'm so excited for more! The hair looks amazing btw!
This color and shade of blue looks SO good on you Salem!! I love it!
The thing is he looks nice
Like wtf did ppl want him to look like
And even if he doesn't look "nice" (whatever that is) why tf is this a big deal
Like he got famous for his personality not his looks so why do his looks even matter
And why tf are they being so mean about it
All of the work we have done over the years to normalise being positive about looks and body acceptance got cancelled as fast as james charles got cancelled for the damn hair gummys
This comment made me laugh bc you said "what did people expect him to look like" when literally him and his friends gave out expectations that were just dramatic. Otherwise yea i agree.
@@tyreek.6815 it was an obvious troll ya'll
It's not his fault you fell for it
@@tyreek.6815 and also that doesn't justify being mean about it
@@fofosyrie3798 never said it did
BRO THE DEAD DOG PLUSHIE- HOW CAN SALEM BE SO CUTE AND SO SASSY AND SO SCARY AT THE SAME TIME
this channel is like the only channel i consistently watch and follow (and enjoy) - awesome vid as always, slayed the hair AND hope you're doing great!
“He looks like someone who would be into Coldplay..” probably the harshest diss to Dream yet 💀
I'm so glad to see you again! I just wanna say you are beautiful and I love your voice like SO MUCH! It's rare to find a youtuber that does these kind of videos on current subjects about the internet, music, celebrities and such without being very loud and I just love your vibe ! Weather you decide to show your face or not you are our chill queen ❤️
Dream's ego just made him hype this face reveal too much. All RUclipsrs were like 'oh wow he is sooo hot he is ultra chad' everyone set their expectations to their top personal level of hotness. It was already a lost cause. Once they saw this just a young, white, boyish face they all were extremely disappointed. If he would just show his face and said like: 'oh, sorry it was not planned, anyway, that's my face, just a random guy you would probably pass by on a street not even noticing me. well, now you will see me more often', he wouldn't get such a backlash I'm sure of it.
I lowkey blame the ppl he FaceTimed (besides bella) that ppl dogged on him so hard. Like they put him on a pedestal as if he was all that when he looks like Shane if he was normal.
Hi Salem! I just wanted to say that I'm really happy to see your face and makeup again, and that you're confident enough to come back to showing it, especially with this video topic. My younger sister is 10, and she has a similar face shape to yours, so it made me really upset to hear about what people have said to you online, knowing my baby sister has gone through that too. Once I think she's old enough for the full force of the internet, I'll be sure to show her your videos. Thanks for teaching us to be confident
welcome back Salem! face or avatar, i love the content you create and i am grateful for your presence in this hell hole of an app
He just looks like a normal dude. Wtf. People were probably disappointed because he did not look like whatever celebrity or character everyone is simping over at the time.
He just looks like a normal white dude ☠️
I'm actually quite happy to see that you feel comfortable enough to show your face again!
I liked the elf drawings too, don't get me wrong, but especially after the video where you explain the reason why you didn't want to show your face anymore, I think it's ok for me to feel happy to see you again ❤
Salem (like always) came back when we needed her the most!!
Unrelated but your cheekbones are fabulous!
Honestly watching your vids bring me so much joy
since dreams face reveal ive been telling everyone i know that he looks like a regular human that exists. only problem is people nowadays (especially teenage girls at school) are so self obsessed that they fail to realize that they look like a regular human being
Ppl went CRAZY on dream. Everything that could’ve gone wrong went wrong.
Late to the party but I remember when the face reveal happened and my friends and I were joking about it saying things like "he's literally just a guy" like "This straight up looks like someone who walks up to you in line at the grocery store and asks if you're in line and when you say 'yes' hes like 'thanks,' and stands in line behind you"
This is the face of a man who is your server at a chain restaurant and posts on instagram occasionally.
Saw your actual face and clicked immediately. Missed you Salem ❤️
Hey Salem! I watch your content BECAUSE I don’t see it fit into the ‘cancel culture’ category. I don’t keep up with twitter, tik tok, youtube or what’s current for self preservation reasons. And so I like to consume a little bit of what’s current through your content; which is gentle and kind. In love with your hair, and congratulations on getting married! Thanks for providing me with a comfy corner of the internet. I’m so grateful for your platform 🤎
ikr!!
Idk who you are but I love your vibe lol. I did a deep dive on him last night because my kids cancelled him after being a fan and wouldn't elaborate so I was curious. Especially after the reveal. "Oh, he's just some guy" was exactly my response. Like he looks like he could be any one of my brother's friends. If he didn't have a mask to begin with, people wouldn't have had any strong feelings about it. I don't think he's a bad dude. From a completely outside view with no previous opinion of him, I can see how he's screwed up, but in the big scheme of things I don't think he's done anything overtly harmful. Anyway, you have a new fan here, cheers
Edit: ok I posted that halfway through and you included some information that wasn't even in the 2 hour video I watched yesterday lol. I like him less and like you even more now.
If you want to know more about him and his controversies (a lot more...), there's a video of a RUclipsr called the right opinion. He does deep dives on internet personalities and their "dramas" but in a very serious and analytical way. I don't normally enjoy drama but I find his videos interesting to know about people and events that I would never watch myself
I'm so happy you're feeling better and yesss love the blue hair. You're gorgeous and it's nice to see you again!
I feel like how funny Salem is, is beyond underrated. I am 4 minutes in. And I’ve lol’d at least 3 times! 😂💕💕💕 love you Salem! Love seeing you BACK!
I also have an underbite like dream (but I'm receiving orthodontic treatment). And seeing how people react and make fun of dream makes me even more insecure about the way I look. What if people also think of me like that? That's why I never take off my mask in public. It's a dental condition, and you don't make fun of that. Y'all making fun of other people's insecurities but when its you getting make fun of, you get mad. Make it make sense. If it's something that cannot be fixed in 10 seconds then don't point it out.
It is so heartbreaking how rude people are being towards him. He looks fine and even if he didn't it's not ok to be so mean to someone like that... I don't even watch his content and I think this is sad.
I think he looks okay, and bullying people for their appearance is definitely wrong. However, I got the feeling that people are attacking him for his looks as they know it would hurt his pride the most, after overhyping his face reveal that much and as a 'punishment' for his actions in the past. Still, bullying others will not solve anything.
Nice to see you again, Salem :) btw the blue hair looks amazing, it suits you so well!
This is a sign that stans need to stop having unrealistic beauty standards about faceless creators, I called it as soon as Dream was gonna make a face reveal his own stans we’re gonna criticize him because of how he looked, in my opinion I don’t think he should’ve done a face reveal but probably was doing it to be mainstream but idk
you’re showing your face??????? i can’t believe it
Yesssssss
I was so happy about that too!
I'm so confused, he looks attractive to me. How high are people's expectations nowadays :0
Sky high 🥲
So I would have loved to see your thoughts and opinions on Ned cheating, SNL making a joke over it and how the Try Guys are taking it. I love your video essays and enjoying watching your content! 💛🧡 Have a great day!
me too! I’d love to hear Salem’s opinion on the drama :)
May I ask who’s Ned?
@@pinkstoniie5187 Oh my! Ned Fulmer is a horrible person who cheated on his wife. The cheating part is obviously gross but he was cheating with his employee for a year. She knew he was married and he knew she was engaged. They both are horrible nasty people who deserve nothing good ever again.
I’d be okay with her not talking about it. There’s already been so many videos and no new info has come out for a while. What else can be said that hasn’t been said? “Ned’s a terrible person, but he didn’t get fired cause he cheated, but cause Alex was an employee under him” is the conclusion everyone has come to.
THE BLUE HAIR LOOKS SO GOOOD OMGG
THANK YOUU
I love your energy so much Salem, I could listen to you talk forever! And your sense of humor is so good❤️ Hope you have a good day, it’s so nice to see your face again!!
I’m comforted knowing you watch me sleep, like a guardian angel. Or a sleep paralysis demon. Or my 8yo when he realizes it’s the weekend and I’m not up yet. Either way, I’m glad I’m not alone. 🙃
My opinion on it: he's like a solid 6/10 or 7/10. Shitting on him for how he looks isn't ok, but like, the jokes kind of hit and can be sooo funny 😭
This is very off topic but I have a question why do people have such big things to say about what he looks like be it good or bad, I remember seeing dream's face reveal and not feeling anything I had nothing good or bad to say I just saw it and simply didn't care.
thank you so much for your speech in the last part. social media is so toxic to the point where even the most gorgeous people in the homepage exc get plastic surgeries exc just to keep up with the perfect visuals like
He looks like every other popular straight girls boyfriend in Highschool .. at this point I’m really confused which men are supposed to be good looking and which aren’t
Glad to have you back! Hair and makeup looking gorgeous as always!
Your generation: Dream
My generation: Cryaotic
hes average looking i agree 100%, but can we not forget that he’s racist, he gr00med a girl (hard core evidence on twitter) and acts like the victim and cries on his PRIVATE twitter rather than to come straight forward publicly to own his actions and not give two craps about what he’s done ?? you guys are missing the bigger picture here than his face reveal ☠️
Bro what. 100%Shook
To be honest, I didn't care about the whole reveal thing nor after. But seeing what came out of it. It's awful. So faceless influencers will always have this expectation to be good looking, beautiful? Its abhorrent how toxic twitter can be and then they act like self-righteous fools later. Makes me hope Corpse Husband never does it.
THIS HAIR COLOUR SUITS YOU SO MUCH!! I love it. Loved the video. I think there might be more unaware people than self aware people honestly... o.O
He literally looks like the most average guy I've ever seen. Like, he isn't overly attractive, but he's solidly sorta cute. He's okay. Honestly, he's hotter than most guys I know irl, but if comparing him to famously attractive people then he doesn't compare. He's average, and that's fine, because most people are. That's why it's called average!!
People's reaction to this is insane, but it's understandable because it was so hyped up and made in such a toxic environment.
I can't really talk on anything about him as a person because I'm not a fan of him and (since this is about the reaction to his face reveal) the shitty things that he's done isn't really relevant. Regardless, though, someone's level of attractiveness shouldn't even be discussed when bringing up the problematic things they've done.
Tbh he IS conventionally attractive for his age group. In the average school in the US, assuming he has a good personality, he'd def have a gf or bf if he wanted 🤷🏼♀️
Salem, the way I literally have never downloaded tiktok again, just deactivated my Instagram and then the next day while I was in reality I got asked out in a grocery store :^) also I luv ur perspective and way you speak
I just feel so bad, people used to pressure him to do the face reveal, and now they’re saying to put the mask back on!? If I had that many people talked about me like that.. smh I’d be dead
It's okay Salem, I have a plushie version of my dead cat!
