Hey mi gente! I hope you can tell I put in a lot of effort. Please like and share the video! What do you think about Kelly Stamps? Any part of the video shock you the most? Let me know in the comments (respectfully)😅📌
*Kelly has NOT humiliated her mother. Kelly was actually speaking her truth. Kelly's mother is a vile emotionally abusive woman. Her mother is a covert narcissist.*
Chile I left when she started to go on a Christian transformation. Talking about (Its hard being Christian, I don’t know how to navigate society now😢) like, now sis💀
@@Deenique16 not according to what’s been happening recently, a lot is at stake for this election and even the conservatives are flipping. Did you see what happened in the villages? That used to be Trump National
It’s okay to have a type/preference but don’t she doesn’t have to bring down one race to lift her type up. I’m a Christian girl and I think her content is so forced especially her jokes these days. She used to be so funny. Being a Christian is not an aesthetic and it doesn’t mean you are doing life better everyone else. She needs a slice of humble pie.
She makes her identity being the Black girl that gushes over White guys… but doesn’t want people to comment on her being the Black girl that gushes over White guys. 😒
Right! Being Christian is not an aesthetic. It’s a lifestyle. It’s a faith. It’s a belief. It’s not a thing where you isolate yourself among other good (White) Christians. It’s how you live amongst people that don’t believe what you believe and show up as a light to them.
She made fun of bm and certain issues in the blk community. How come when somene makes fun of bm, they're labeled anti blk, but when a bm makes fun of bw, he's just funny? There's a bm on Tik Tok, who posts videos making fun of bw every day. He dresses up like a bw and presents the worst stereotypes of us. He has a huge following and people think he's funny. I'm not going to hold this against her when there's an enormous number of bm in the manosphere and all over social media saying the most horrific things about bw daily and nobody seems to have a problem with it.
you’re being disingenuous, of course it’s anti black .. irrespective of the gender and most sensical blk men would concur. as hard as it may be, some blk ppl hate themselves and project onto others (thanks to yt supremacy mostly) but it’s up to you if you want that ilk to neutralise your humanity for half your collective when most are not like them.
Of course he won’t talk about that,black men and women never call out the huge black male creators that always use black women for jokes,and Kelly stamps is where you start? It’s a lot to un pack
I noticed something wasn't right when she said she isn't a feminist and doesn't support girl bosses, with cognitive dissonance to the fact that that's literally what she is and how she makes her money, she's so slow for that
@@SontaLovely Evangelical Christians have a history of anti-blackness. I would happily call myself a radical Christian and most of us are not right-winged weirdos.
@@ChocolateBabe_ Oh shit! Maryjane lol! I only watched one video from her. It got randomly recommended to me around 2020 - 2021. I watched multiple callout videos about her😭💯
@@WilliamsPinch I wasn’t aware there was a difference. That’s interesting. Either way, my upbringing and my personal beliefs deter me from Christianity. I’m tolerant as long as someone isn’t pushing their beliefs on me.
Maybe I'm missing something, but I've never seen Kelly as being problematic. She has a weird sense of humor, however she seems harmless to me. What I like about Kelly is that she is not trying to fit into a stereotype.
@@La-libelluleand yet she has the gall to stereotype many other blk ppl and even struggles to admit she projects but accuses others of doing the same. She often confuses Christianity with conservatism and that’s grounds for disliking her especially if you’re a follower of faith
Thanks for covering this. I was an early fan before she blew up and recently started noticing her content take a turn and get really icky and anti-black. 😮
I tolerated the tradcon vibes for a little while (as a leftist); we don't all divide cleanly along political lines based on our race, ex. as a BW I can be both in favor of gun control and part of the fastest-growing demographic of new gun ownership. I was already watching less of her content because of these weird vibes, but I could still (somewhat) relate to Kelly. The thing that got me to unsub was her straight up revealing that her modern nomad lifestyle - one of the things I enjoyed most about her channel - was pretty much due to her dodging vaccine mandates. She didn't want to get the covid vaccine, she didn't "feel it was necessary". She wasn't immunocompromised or something that made is so she COULDN'T get it, she CHOSE not to do that. And then had the audacity to whine about being uninvited to events because she wasn't vaccinated. Like no duh Kelly. That plus all the other stuff was just too much for me.
i’ve noticed the subtle anti blkness too. i remember when she made a comment about the “bushy hair look” regarding natural hair and also in an nyc interview asking this random yt man if he liked bw.
Kelly is a complex case. She literally went from having it all, to potentially more, to a downward spiral and she has no one, not even the RUclips algorithm to blame but herself. A few things I disagree with in this video: 1. Kelly owes Jenna absolutely NOTHING. The whole “Kelly should have defended Jenna” when Jenna got backlash on her videos about Kelly doesn’t make sense. Kelly is not responsible for that. While Jenna feeling how she felt wasn’t wrong, Jenna (an adult) decided to make a video on a public platform about it. People are going to defend their faves and say whatever they want. She then kept making videos about her and even in her vlogs was sneak dissing Kelly on some one-sided beef tip. I wanted to support her channel at the time but her attitude was bad. She is weird and obsessive regarding Kelly. She used to praise Kelly before she switched up. Prior to the one-sided beef, Kelly gave her a shoutout on her channel and Jenna got lots of followers because of that. It was like she was ungrateful and mad she couldn’t get from under Kelly’s shadow when she was the one who decided to attach herself to Kelly’s brand. I think Kelly did the right thing by not acknowledging the one-sided beef because that would fuel it. Because Kelly didn’t acknowledge it, it died the same time it started. Kelly in the end looked better because of it and the problem (Jenna) removed itself. I know that must have been so hard for Kelly to do initially because anyone would be in defense mode if someone came for you and encouraged people to unsubscribe from your channel. I would never defend someone who made a decision to come for me when all I was doing was living my life, and you’re upset because I’m dating people, dressing feminine, and buying myself luxury goods 🥴. Kelly was just enjoying the rewards of her hard work, making herself available to potential suitors, and discovering herself as a woman through fashion choices that Jenna apparently didn’t agree with. Yes it can be triggering for some but Jenna should have separated herself from that and got the help she needed. The fact that she is in this comment section right now and is one of the first people to comment on this video is unsettling. The girl is still obsessed and gives jeepers creepers energy. I said what I said. It’s great that she’s in a better place and discovering herself but it’s clear she is still occupied by all things Kelly. It just makes you doubtful this randomly popped up on her recommended as she said 😏. 2. Kelly can like whatever color peen she likes. I get the correlation of her dating preferences in this video due to the topic but separate from that, I love to see Black women explore their dating options. Black women always get the harder end of the stick when it comes to interracial dating although Black men date out more. She likes what she likes and as long as they’re treating her right that’s all that matters. That in general has nothing to do with self-hate. 3. Every Black person doesn’t have to always talk about political or social issues to be solidified in their Blackness. It’s literally exhausting to carry that load. I honestly enjoy content where a Black woman is just living her carefree life, unbothered, and these issues aren’t centered around the content. It’s refreshing and gives you a break from all the negative. I think it’s clear (sometimes) where someone stands based on how they carry themselves. In this climate where things are very heavy and negative, I wouldn’t want to put that on anyone to be talk about these things. That was what was charming about her channel initially. Her flighty and indecisive nature can definitely be attributed to her ADHD (which I have). I imagine it’s more inflated by her childhood trauma, mixed in with access to money many people may never be able to see in their lifetime. Some of her issues with her Blackness and Black parents can honestly be relatable in some ways so I can’t 100% condemn her because most of us went through some of those phases growing up. I think it’s more serious when you grow up around White people though. I’m compassionate but to a degree. Before Kelly blew up, she was following Charlie Kirk, Ben Shapiro and other racist far-right political figures. I been peeped it before the girls on LSA did. Since they brought attention to it she hid her following. She then very slowly climbed out of her far-right closet. Kelly has said some harsh and definitive things out loud only to keep changing her mind, hence the direction of her channel and her plummeting growth. She still doesn’t know what she wants and who she is and that’s ok but to be bitter and confused about why people are hitching off of her channel doesn’t make sense. Almost every vlog she complains about her RUclips channel in some way, form, or fashion. That’s not content worthy and extremely repetitive. Her RUclips problem is a problem many people wished they had. I stopped watching once the erratic behavior was apparent. The constant and abrupt changes, the pick-me vibes, the “I’m not like the other Black girls”, and now the unhinged, radical Christian direction. It’s too much. Girl needs to sit down and meditate. Oh, but according to some Christians that satanic 😂. My theory with her blaming the algorithm and this new Christian prosecution is that it’s a cover for a bruised ego and the fact that she’s publicly failing at her goal. Kelly was really serious about getting 1M subscribers at a projected time frame. The humble bragging, semi-retirement from RUclips, abandoning the main channel and having a new one to be “herself”, and acting like life is so much better outside of RUclips when this girl loves the camera points to the theory she is very bothered and wants to own her own narrative of why her channel stopped growing. Kelly was an “it girl” at the time and all she had to do was pick up the camera, look cute, say a funny one-liner and the views would come trickling it. She lost it. I check in here and there to see if that version of “Kelly” came back but I think she died a long time ago. Her Father’s death did something to her and with her exposure to money and a level of fame, it really did her head in. When I was a casual viewer in the beginning when she was at like 1K subs, she did have some of this behavior, but I didn’t pick up on it at the time like that because I wasn’t that invested. There’s always truth to jokes so it’s great you highlighted that. There is a vlog where she joked about getting a boob job but said she would never get them because she loves her small boobs. One of the first things she did once she got some money was get her boobs done 😂. Lastly, someone mentioned the correlation between her and Maryjane, and I’ve been seeing that for the longest time. Maryjane is the worst because she actually scammed people, thinks she’s on some mission, and really lives in delulu island with her endeavors. She’s still scamming and her Christian indoctrination seems far worse than Kelly. I just can’t understand Black women and their dedication to a religion that keeps them enslaved and a victim of patriarchy. It’s a mental disorder. I’m spiritual and am open to read any scripture from any religion (so I’m not intolerant) but I have eyes to see and notice some of the man-made indoctrination. I need Black women to wake up and know who they truly are. Anyway, the day someone makes a video about them 2 is a viral video *ahem* @TroyceTv 😂. Those are my thoughts and thanks for reading.
@@edithandlez It’s a nearly hour video that you had the time to clearly click on and watch. I highlighted on some topics he discussed in said length of video. You see the length and choose to reply. Your comment and your action towards my comment doesn’t correlate Ma’am.
We need to start a conversation of how people often use religion as a means to an end or a tool to reinforce negativity instead of just practicing their faith bc it’s a way of navigating life. This is in part why the church, specifically the black church has gone down in drastic numbers nationwide. The grift is strong in keeping believers deluded especially black women as they make up a big portion of the church. The grift always seems to reinforce the behavior of pushing and dividing people from your life you wouldn’t otherwise do. It’s like being convinced you’re right that your self care methods involve being highly individualistic. That’s not healthy for anyone
I was a fan then quickly fell off the Stamps wagon when it was giving antiBlack. She was always around white men when i lived in her area. So when i realized the youtube girl is the girl i saw hanging around a bunch of dudes and particularly white men i knew what type of time she was on.
Oh wow! I was a fan as well. I unsubscribed to her channels early January 2024. I wanted to give her the benefit of the doubt… Big mistake! Thank you for sharing👏🏾!
God, I was suuuch a fan. She seemed quirky and relatable, but with time something seemed off... Like with her mental health. I think she needs constant validation and her ego has sky rocketed 🤷♀️ She seems kinda manic... 😮💨 Anyways, I hope she finds her path and gets better. She deserves happiness, as any other person.
This video can’t be fr…only certain kinds of Black people should be allowed freedom of expression? Every black person living in a western country, especially Black Americans in this case, will have their own trauma related to their experience and it’s dangerous to imply there’s only one right way to deal with that PTSD. If Kelly chooses to live her life as a somewhat removed/dry Black “upper class” woman she should have the freedom to do such, her socioeconomic status and sense of humor doesn’t make her any less Black or being worthy of living her life the way she wants to. We have to have all kinds of Black people be represented if we want to be seen as a non monolithic people
I don’t think Jenna was being anti black I think she was jealous she was being compared to her Especially cuz they are very similar in looks and personality Kelly was at the peak of her career and I really think Jenna was constantly compared to her and probably just didn’t find her relateable Like there are ppl I used to stop watching that are black and successful It’s mostly cuz they aren’t genuine anymore and mislead ppl That doesn’t make me Antiblack 🤔
Not that I think it matters what race she prefers to date, but to give balance to your points made on the topic, when Kelly was living in Atlanta, I distinctly remember her making comments on how good-looking, successful and southern gentlemanly the black men were there. I don't think Kelly is antiblack at all. While I'll admit some of her jokes didn't age well, she has a dry sense of humor. Black men/women make jokes all day about the stereotypes within the community, but because she doesn't fit the stereotype/ isn't in close proximity to the black community, ppl take offense to those same types of jokes when she makes them??
Kelly seems a lot like my younger self & most of the afro-something peers I grew up around(West Coast, suburbs) It was only after some travel, reflection, & life experiences that I realized how off-putting we can be to some ppl. I'm torn because there's also a lot of negative energy , weirdness and expectations blown in our direction from ppl of all colors. It's super exhausting being perceived as an 'uppity kneegro' and a 'weirdo.' The world says to 'be yourself' but that's as long as you fit into their boxes and comfort zones.
I also really liked Kelly stamps, I from time to time would side eye somethings, but I thought I would continue to support her. I related to her in terms of being interested in sports and activities you don't typically see black people in. However, I was lucky to grow up with family who would encourage. Plus I was really close with a lot of my cousin's since both of my parents had a lot of siblings. So I had the pleasure to grow up being around my black family even though we all loved in predominantly white areas in Canada. I'm not surprised this is where she is now, but it's not fun to see. I stopped watching her after just before her fun religious arc, but when I saw your previous video about Kelly, I was like 😧 I don't think this is for me
I like Kelly for the most part, the one problematic part I found was her gaslighting the dark-skin woman's experience when she is on film sharing that her white peers in California were calling her an Oreo (38:15) and a racist man said she looked pretty for a black girl (38:34). That is some of the worst cognitive dissonance I've seen. The lady was not trauma-dumping but trying to relate to her as a human being. The radical feminist insult was also silly since she's on camera complaining about her mom not subsidizing her lifestyle (28:47). Why wasn't her father, a man, not paying for her a place to live then and being a provider?
*I know Kelly Stamps on an associate friendly level. I met her while we were both traveling. Her humor is not for those who don't have a good sense of self regardless of your phenotype. I do feel Kelly suffers some internalized racism, leans heavily on stereotypes sometimes in an effort to be humorous and worships whiteness. She also hasn't fully dealt with her trauma of having a covert narcissistic mother. Experience is teaching Kelly things her toxic mother couldn't. I told Kelly she reminded me of the scholarship kids at the private school I attended. She so desperately wanted white validation. Kelly has come a long way since I met her. She finally realizes true validation only comes from within and has educated herself on the myriad effects of institutional and systemic racism and discrimination. My hope is that Kelly won't carry the psychological effects of her family's generational trauma.* ❤
I noticed something wasn't right when she said she isn't a feminist and doesn't support girl bosses, with cognitive dissonance to the fact that that's literally what she is and how she makes her riches, she's so slow for that, This is one of the reasons I never really got into her channel
There's a difference between being a feminist and being an opportunist. Opportunistic behavior predates feminist theory. So it isn't cognitive dissonance on her part.
YES. I've been waiting for someone BLACK to do this. I liked her for a brief period of time and then listened to her rhetoric and ran off because it was all saturated by anti-Blackness.
i was a fan of kelly. i really like her content and when she converted i became a fan. the reason why i unsubscribed is because i noticed that something was going on with her, something mentally. (mind you, i binged her channel) if you're a casual fan of hers you wouldn't notice, but i did. i am worried for her and really pray for her that she is going to be okey mentally, but this isn't really her era edit: and btw i've seen comments saying that she is ''bad'' because she is a conservative. it's ridiculous. i was part of both parties and leftist have just as much dirt on their hands as conservatives. on both sides there awful people and on both sides there are also really great people, let's please not stereotype each group
Kelly is just feeling lost in life. She found happiness with her new man, but she’s still a little lost on what to do in life. It’s a normal feeling and does seem to affect her mentally. Going from being successful to not so much as successful before and not knowing what to do next can put a strain on someone mentally.
Dude bye, Leftists DO NOT have as much dirt on our hands as conservatives quite the opposite actually since we're the ones who have always fought for human rights whereas the right has always done the opposite, literally not comparable at all unless the supposed dirt on our hands are winning rights for people
Because a lot of times, antiblackness habits influences dating preferences as well and the mention of ADHD is important to bring up because it can shed light on why she says or does certain behaviours
Also she’s created a social media presence where half her online identity is being the Black girl that wants a White man. Since that is what she talks about, it’s what we talk about. That’s like viewing a makeup girlie and not talking about how she applied makeup. 😂 People comment on the content that is presented.
@@sandriais that’s not what she speaks about??? I remember her being very vocal about celibacy for two years. Her content is mostly vlogging and life planning
I haven’t finished completely but I hate how people normalize paying rent to parents when they are trying to get on their feet. I would never have my child pay rent, especially if they have goals ambitions in place. You know if your child is a layabout. Kelly is not one of those. Not to completely defend Kelly cause I have my issues with her, it’s just that one thing that really irks me. I went to stay with my mom for a bit (yes in my 20s) and she did not make me pay. I know for a fact if she didn’t let me save the way I did, I would not be anywhere near as successful today. Not that I’m crazy successful but I know I wouldn’t have a six-figure salary (not that money is the only marker for success), I’d be way behind
But its no longer funny. Thats the problem. U cant keep defending mediocre tone deaf comedians. Its just lazy and id argue it was very spotty (as in not funny) for some time.
Great video! I watched her channel off and on over the years but felt something was off because some of her comments around her hair. When I saw her second channel and hard shift towards conservative Christian was the end for me. Look forward to the next video!
Thank you so much! My mom, sisters, and I tried to give her grace with the hair comments. However, I knew some folks would find her comments out of place. If you do not mind me asking. What hair comments you didn’t appreciated from Kelly Stamps🧐?
@@JulianSteve She had a couple of videos where she talked about why she wore her hair straight (I think she got Japanese or Brazilian straightening treatments) and it seemed more like she was working to somewhat “assimilate” in some ways, and even the comments on people sexualizing her because of her hair when it was clearly still straight but roots grown out a bit were weird to me.
@@benzatl Oh shit! I forgot about that. I remembered her saying that a couple of times. I forgot the exact videos where she talked about Brazilian and Japanese hair “treatments.” As for the over sexualizing of her hair… Yeah, I see it in the clips I pulled😬…
You can tell she has insecurities around class and money and she thinks the problem is blackness or Christianity. Like no girl it’s your trauma and experience with family and money, not about your race
Not you giving me a safe space to express my thoughts about Kelly stamps! I used to really like her, but once her video dropped on her second channel about not being a “woke” black woman, I had to go. She lost me forever. Also, subscribed! Side note: I don’t need her to be woke, but the language and undertones in that video gave very much Asap Rocky and the BLM/Ferguson debacle, but that’s just me.
I'm curious about this bc I haven't heard of her in a while. I somehow found her videos a few years ago pop up on my feed and I watched a couple videos. I stopped watching for some reason but I'm excited to watch your video.
This video is anti-middle class black woman. Kelly’s assessment of NYC is fairly accurate. I’m from New York, Brooklyn to be precise, born and raised. RUclips is about self expression and we as black people need to allow other black ppl to express themselves the way they want. I haven’t watched Kelly since December 2020 because I was living my life, and the algorithm stopped recommending her to me and it eventually became out-of-sight out-of-mind so I have no dog in this fight. However, making a video about Kelly who grew up middle class as anti-black is nasty work. This is why we can’t get ahead…because we love to bring down anyone black, who we perceive as “different”. We ask the question “who’s the black Alix Earl?” And why aren’t black ppl getting certain brand deals$$$$? Yet we have a black woman content creator doing numbers and we complain that they’re anti-black and not relatable. Just say you don’t like her because she doesn’t fit your idea of a stereotypical bw and go watch Beyoncé or something. Let’s not even get started on how you look or sound, Julian….but I’m going to be nice because that is not the way, just like this video is not the way. We don’t always have to make negative think pieces about black women, especially when they’re just living their life not harming a soul.
I'm sure I heard Kelly say that her mother had elements of narcissism - and living with that kind of toxicity can REALLY do a number on you. I come from a similar situation so I know how hard it is - we don't know what happens between them behind closed doors so I feel that part of the commentary was a bit...out of touch (personally) - I could be wrong but I'm sure I heard that quite some time ago, as part of a Better Help sponsored vid.
her antiblackness is one thing (which i def picked up early one) but when she started saying transphobic stuff as of recently it was an even HARDER no for me.
This is an interesting video! I can relate to being called white washed when i was younger cuz i spent most of my years in a predominantly white neighbourhood so i do understand. However, you can control the way you react to it. I could have distanced myself further away from black culture but I didn't! You can't allow a small number of people make you hate who you are. I cannot sympathize with people who are grown and have this mentality, I can understand but that's about it.
Hmmmmm. She's been catching heat for a while. However, I really didn't pay much attention to it all because I really didn't watch her like that. We're in different generations, so I just thought her content was for THOSE type of Black folks. But then your video popped up on my recommendations. Whew!!! She really is on one. She's like the wanna be comedy version of Candace Owens. Why do I have the feeling that if she wasn't Black, she wouldn't be on RUclips or have a following, because have you ever seen ppl of other races speak about themselves and their race in such a way? I don't think she would have as many fans (white folks) if she did this as a white girl. As for Jennah, I saw her video. The 2nd video. And that's what made me stop watching her. Then I saw that Spencer did a video on Kelly. It seemed like it was a fake video where he was sharing how popular she is and going into how she makes a lot of money as a RUclipsr but lives a frugal lifestyle ... it seemed like it was an un-paid paid promotional video. Anywho, I steer clear of these types of Black RUclipsrs. The ones who vlog about their lives and make Stabs And jabs at their Blackness. I can't relate. Anywho!!! AWESOME video. Just because someone looks like us, it doesn't mean that they're about US. 😊 Edit: Paying Rent She needs to calm down on this. Adult children should not be up in their parents' house living for free. I remember when I was between college and my real REAL job at NASA, I paid rent to my mom. It helped to pay for groceries, utilities, and the taking up space in HER HOUSE. But, unbeknownst to me, she was saving it all for when I moved out so I could have money for a deposit on an apartment, furniture, and money for whatever else I needed the 8k for. Oh, and I grew up an only child and military brat. But I was very aware of my Black & Hispanic -ness even though my phenotype says 'Black Girl'! I have been called an oreo, but that's a them problem. I spoke 4 languages back when i was a young lady, now almost 6. I've been called uppity because of my degrees. But, hey. We live in a weird world. We can't control other people. I think Kelly has some serious identity issues. But, to each his own. Some people don't mind watching a train wreck in slow motion... except, she's the train wreck.
Thank you so much for this comment! You shared a lot of interesting points. I’m happy that you mentioned the paying rent part. In this economy, one income is not enough. At least for most people. I hope more people see your comment👏🏾!
@@JulianSteve Keep Up The Excellent Work. I float between several RUclips Accounts (this is my non-creative account) so I can answer more freely without running the risk of getting my creative accounts cancelled. But I still keep an eye for your content. Smiles!!! Now, I am going to fade to Black and allow you to do what you do. Just keep on with the thought provoking content!!! 😘
@@apinchofdisappointment Smiles. I tell everyone, it's not that hard. If you have a desire to learn, anything can be learned and retained. But Thank You for the compliment!!!
I used to watch her all the time, until she really started going hard on Christianity. She was so funny and relatable and I just can’t relate to her anymore.
That would be delusional! (Her denying that she’s “black”) It doesn’t mean she doesn’t display tendencies that come off as anti black. I’m of the opinion that what people think of you shouldn’t be an issue for you… if it is you will always be running in circles trying to please, an impossible feat. I’m of the opinion that we should try to be a good person, who is kind and good to the people in our lives.
Unfortunately a lot of her personality gives covert pick-me. In the early days it was so easy to take her jokes as harmless coz she was relatable and very much not conservative or a bible thumper. And i agree with jenna on one point. the moment she “blew” up all she could ever put out were vids on how to blow up how to gain subs etc. it felt very disingenuous and tacky. It totally leans into traces of antiblackness with the underlying intention being to prove oneself by putting yourself in a position where u teach the viewer and basically receive validation for reaching a milestone which isnt a bad thing! But why not keep rolling out the original content? No other successful vlogger is moving like that on youtube. Its giving podcast bro honestly. And i dont think theres anything wrong with making money and buying luxury i can enjoy that kind of content but the context and her viewpoints have changed
Kelly Stamps is a super awesome black woman. She has every right to be herself and use her freedom of speech in a free country. I love that she's in love with her Christian faith, her being conservative is completely okay, and it's completely fine that she loves white men. When a black woman like Kelly Stamps doesn't fit into the typical black woman mold, people start to hate. I personally agree with everything she's said as a black woman myself. The same people who complain how black people are not a monolith are the same people who get angry seeing a black woman like Kelly Stamps. The same people who praise growth and change are the same people who are angry seeing Kelly Stamps grow and change. I think the human race as a whole is hypocritical.
ive never watched her before mind you but Am i the only one who thought her jokes weren't like "anti black" because she has that type of humor (the ones at the beginning all the way ruo to "i should just be president") ? im the same with sort of cynic jokes and i definitely dont hate black men or people at all 😭 i dont think it's meant to make fun of anyone, some make light of their pain and when you think about it those people would probably make fun of her-- so who's more right?
33:48 Kelly in front of those White men and laughing "It's not your job to change someone" This is true but it says a lot about you if you continue to engage with a man that does that.
It’s fascinating seeing hate-watchers make videos & comments about unproblematic people for no other reason than their own misery and attention-seeking. Y’all are a psychology case study. 🤷🏾♀️ And who knows yall’s true agenda honestly.
I stopped watching Kelly after her playing the victim for people wanting her to to say something about the G Floyd thing. She's consumed by right wing media because she has no one in her life.
Please don’t equate her saying she has to pay rent to that being her mommy issues. You have no clue what it’s like to be the daughter of a mother who hates you. Who brags about you going to college or your accomplishments but did not help you get them. Also, my mom charged me rent and was buying purses. I come from a single mom, semi-middle class post my mom getting out of the military. Don’t assume all parents are great and loving. Also, you pointed out she grew up in a mainly white/mixed area and wonder why she has a type? Who is she supposed to like, “her people”? The people who tell you that you “act white”? 🤔. The fact that you chuckled at the Oreo thing and said it was messed up shows you don’t GET how that feels, to be yourself and not be accepted in your community. I could leave a longer comment but I won’t. Cause I’m not even done with the video. You should interview people who grew up like this and then maybe you will see how easy it is to turn out the way she is. Also look into neurodivergent people. They don’t make the best therapist for people to trauma dump on. Go pay a therapist for that 😅. My goodness. Yeah I’ll leave this comment.
Yeah that part and the rest weren’t that problematic to me “she wasn’t grateful”…. She’s spoken at length the fact her mom was damaging towards her. Why would she be? The only side eye worthy thing for me is how she talked about her hair and the weird jokes about black men. Even the not wanting to speak on certain issues? Like she said she gets worked up and wants to protect her peace. She doesn’t want to be a talk person for issues. It’s her channel and her energy she can do whatever she wants with it. Other than that she’s young and has a weird sense of humor that you can either take or leave. She comes across as a black girl raised around white people that needs therapy - I wish her the best and I still watch her occasionally but I won’t pretend there isn’t anything I see she might need help with.
Kelly SHOULD be paying her mother rent. If you were 18+ when you went to college then your mother SHOULD NOT HAVE to help you with college and your accomplishments. Your mother spending your rent money on purses is no dofferent than your landlord spending your rent money on purses, whom youd ALSO be paying if you hadnt lived with your mom. This level of entitlement is INSANE.
@@TomikaKelly For some circles, it’s entitled. For others, it’s just your parents doing their part to help you get a leg up in society and not at all entitlement. Imagine as a student going to college and only focusing on your schooling and not having to pay bills.
Hey mi gente! I hope you can tell I put in a lot of effort. Please like and share the video! What do you think about Kelly Stamps? Any part of the video shock you the most? Let me know in the comments (respectfully)😅📌
*Kelly has NOT humiliated her mother. Kelly was actually speaking her truth. Kelly's mother is a vile emotionally abusive woman. Her mother is a covert narcissist.*
Chile I left when she started to go on a Christian transformation. Talking about (Its hard being Christian, I don’t know how to navigate society now😢) like, now sis💀
Yes! I saw a couple of people saying that on Reddit. It’s worse when you go to the second channel😭💯
Frr she moved to FL cuz it’s not a blue state but I’m hoping that changes after the election cuz it’s enough weirdos over here already
@@KayUniverseit's going to get worse
@@Deenique16 not according to what’s been happening recently, a lot is at stake for this election and even the conservatives are flipping. Did you see what happened in the villages? That used to be Trump National

It’s okay to have a type/preference but don’t she doesn’t have to bring down one race to lift her type up. I’m a Christian girl and I think her content is so forced especially her jokes these days. She used to be so funny. Being a Christian is not an aesthetic and it doesn’t mean you are doing life better everyone else. She needs a slice of humble pie.
She makes her identity being the Black girl that gushes over White guys… but doesn’t want people to comment on her being the Black girl that gushes over White guys. 😒
Right! Being Christian is not an aesthetic. It’s a lifestyle. It’s a faith. It’s a belief. It’s not a thing where you isolate yourself among other good (White) Christians. It’s how you live amongst people that don’t believe what you believe and show up as a light to them.
Agreed.
She made fun of bm and certain issues in the blk community. How come when somene makes fun of bm, they're labeled anti blk, but when a bm makes fun of bw, he's just funny? There's a bm on Tik Tok, who posts videos making fun of bw every day. He dresses up like a bw and presents the worst stereotypes of us. He has a huge following and people think he's funny. I'm not going to hold this against her when there's an enormous number of bm in the manosphere and all over social media saying the most horrific things about bw daily and nobody seems to have a problem with it.
Definitely!! The two that come to mind is Terry Joe and the “You have been promoted” dude
you’re being disingenuous, of course it’s anti black .. irrespective of the gender and most sensical blk men would concur. as hard as it may be, some blk ppl hate themselves and project onto others (thanks to yt supremacy mostly) but it’s up to you if you want that ilk to neutralise your humanity for half your collective when most are not like them.
Of course he won’t talk about that,black men and women never call out the huge black male creators that always use black women for jokes,and Kelly stamps is where you start? It’s a lot to un pack
Thank you!!!!
Tbh I see your point here that’s why I think Kelly is a complex issue.
I’m glad there are other comments acknowledging how radically conservative “pick me” Christian she decided to swing.
Right?
I noticed something wasn't right when she said she isn't a feminist and doesn't support girl bosses, with cognitive dissonance to the fact that that's literally what she is and how she makes her money, she's so slow for that
@@Rosemary46840she’s not a girlboss, I don’t think you understand what a girlboss is.

Her and that other girl who scammed all those women for that Dubai trip is one and the same in my opinion.
Dead as. I’ve always said that. The unhinged, self-hating, radical Christian vibes are off the charts with Maryjane and Kelly.
@@SontaLovely Evangelical Christians have a history of anti-blackness. I would happily call myself a radical Christian and most of us are not right-winged weirdos.
I can see that
@@ChocolateBabe_ Oh shit! Maryjane lol! I only watched one video from her. It got randomly recommended to me around 2020 - 2021. I watched multiple callout videos about her😭💯
@@WilliamsPinch I wasn’t aware there was a difference. That’s interesting. Either way, my upbringing and my personal beliefs deter me from Christianity. I’m tolerant as long as someone isn’t pushing their beliefs on me.
Maybe I'm missing something, but I've never seen Kelly as being problematic. She has a weird sense of humor, however she seems harmless to me. What I like about Kelly is that she is not trying to fit into a stereotype.
She is… she trying to be the token black friend. Not original… nothing new under the sun.
What stereotypes?
@@NostalgicPocketYou’re wrong, she has black friends like Kianna Naomi and others. She’s being herself, but doesn’t fit into your idea of blackness.
@@La-libelluleand yet she has the gall to stereotype many other blk ppl and even struggles to admit she projects but accuses others of doing the same. She often confuses Christianity with conservatism and that’s grounds for disliking her especially if you’re a follower of faith
What stereotype would that be….
Thanks for covering this. I was an early fan before she blew up and recently started noticing her content take a turn and get really icky and anti-black. 😮
No problem, Janayn! It took me a while to notice. So, no shame here. At least we caught up😅
I tolerated the tradcon vibes for a little while (as a leftist); we don't all divide cleanly along political lines based on our race, ex. as a BW I can be both in favor of gun control and part of the fastest-growing demographic of new gun ownership. I was already watching less of her content because of these weird vibes, but I could still (somewhat) relate to Kelly. The thing that got me to unsub was her straight up revealing that her modern nomad lifestyle - one of the things I enjoyed most about her channel - was pretty much due to her dodging vaccine mandates. She didn't want to get the covid vaccine, she didn't "feel it was necessary". She wasn't immunocompromised or something that made is so she COULDN'T get it, she CHOSE not to do that. And then had the audacity to whine about being uninvited to events because she wasn't vaccinated. Like no duh Kelly. That plus all the other stuff was just too much for me.
The jealousy, let this girl live her life. She is not denying her heritage.
OMG I THOUGHT I WAS THE ONLY ONE WHO NOTICED AND GOT WEIRDED OUT!!!!! Its so weird to see how she is nowadays. It's really sad.
It’s really sad. I’m not going to lie🥲💯
i’ve noticed the subtle anti blkness too. i remember when she made a comment about the “bushy hair look” regarding natural hair and also in an nyc interview asking this random yt man if he liked bw.
Kelly is a complex case. She literally went from having it all, to potentially more, to a downward spiral and she has no one, not even the RUclips algorithm to blame but herself.
A few things I disagree with in this video:
1. Kelly owes Jenna absolutely NOTHING. The whole “Kelly should have defended Jenna” when Jenna got backlash on her videos about Kelly doesn’t make sense. Kelly is not responsible for that. While Jenna feeling how she felt wasn’t wrong, Jenna (an adult) decided to make a video on a public platform about it. People are going to defend their faves and say whatever they want.
She then kept making videos about her and even in her vlogs was sneak dissing Kelly on some one-sided beef tip. I wanted to support her channel at the time but her attitude was bad. She is weird and obsessive regarding Kelly. She used to praise Kelly before she switched up. Prior to the one-sided beef, Kelly gave her a shoutout on her channel and Jenna got lots of followers because of that. It was like she was ungrateful and mad she couldn’t get from under Kelly’s shadow when she was the one who decided to attach herself to Kelly’s brand.
I think Kelly did the right thing by not acknowledging the one-sided beef because that would fuel it. Because Kelly didn’t acknowledge it, it died the same time it started. Kelly in the end looked better because of it and the problem (Jenna) removed itself. I know that must have been so hard for Kelly to do initially because anyone would be in defense mode if someone came for you and encouraged people to unsubscribe from your channel.
I would never defend someone who made a decision to come for me when all I was doing was living my life, and you’re upset because I’m dating people, dressing feminine, and buying myself luxury goods 🥴. Kelly was just enjoying the rewards of her hard work, making herself available to potential suitors, and discovering herself as a woman through fashion choices that Jenna apparently didn’t agree with. Yes it can be triggering for some but Jenna should have separated herself from that and got the help she needed.
The fact that she is in this comment section right now and is one of the first people to comment on this video is unsettling. The girl is still obsessed and gives jeepers creepers energy. I said what I said. It’s great that she’s in a better place and discovering herself but it’s clear she is still occupied by all things Kelly. It just makes you doubtful this randomly popped up on her recommended as she said 😏.
2. Kelly can like whatever color peen she likes. I get the correlation of her dating preferences in this video due to the topic but separate from that, I love to see Black women explore their dating options. Black women always get the harder end of the stick when it comes to interracial dating although Black men date out more. She likes what she likes and as long as they’re treating her right that’s all that matters. That in general has nothing to do with self-hate.
3. Every Black person doesn’t have to always talk about political or social issues to be solidified in their Blackness. It’s literally exhausting to carry that load. I honestly enjoy content where a Black woman is just living her carefree life, unbothered, and these issues aren’t centered around the content. It’s refreshing and gives you a break from all the negative. I think it’s clear (sometimes) where someone stands based on how they carry themselves. In this climate where things are very heavy and negative, I wouldn’t want to put that on anyone to be talk about these things. That was what was charming about her channel initially.
Her flighty and indecisive nature can definitely be attributed to her ADHD (which I have). I imagine it’s more inflated by her childhood trauma, mixed in with access to money many people may never be able to see in their lifetime. Some of her issues with her Blackness and Black parents can honestly be relatable in some ways so I can’t 100% condemn her because most of us went through some of those phases growing up. I think it’s more serious when you grow up around White people though. I’m compassionate but to a degree. Before Kelly blew up, she was following Charlie Kirk, Ben Shapiro and other racist far-right political figures. I been peeped it before the girls on LSA did. Since they brought attention to it she hid her following. She then very slowly climbed out of her far-right closet.
Kelly has said some harsh and definitive things out loud only to keep changing her mind, hence the direction of her channel and her plummeting growth. She still doesn’t know what she wants and who she is and that’s ok but to be bitter and confused about why people are hitching off of her channel doesn’t make sense. Almost every vlog she complains about her RUclips channel in some way, form, or fashion. That’s not content worthy and extremely repetitive. Her RUclips problem is a problem many people wished they had. I stopped watching once the erratic behavior was apparent. The constant and abrupt changes, the pick-me vibes, the “I’m not like the other Black girls”, and now the unhinged, radical Christian direction. It’s too much. Girl needs to sit down and meditate. Oh, but according to some Christians that satanic 😂.
My theory with her blaming the algorithm and this new Christian prosecution is that it’s a cover for a bruised ego and the fact that she’s publicly failing at her goal. Kelly was really serious about getting 1M subscribers at a projected time frame. The humble bragging, semi-retirement from RUclips, abandoning the main channel and having a new one to be “herself”, and acting like life is so much better outside of RUclips when this girl loves the camera points to the theory she is very bothered and wants to own her own narrative of why her channel stopped growing. Kelly was an “it girl” at the time and all she had to do was pick up the camera, look cute, say a funny one-liner and the views would come trickling it. She lost it. I check in here and there to see if that version of “Kelly” came back but I think she died a long time ago. Her Father’s death did something to her and with her exposure to money and a level of fame, it really did her head in. When I was a casual viewer in the beginning when she was at like 1K subs, she did have some of this behavior, but I didn’t pick up on it at the time like that because I wasn’t that invested. There’s always truth to jokes so it’s great you highlighted that. There is a vlog where she joked about getting a boob job but said she would never get them because she loves her small boobs. One of the first things she did once she got some money was get her boobs done 😂.
Lastly, someone mentioned the correlation between her and Maryjane, and I’ve been seeing that for the longest time. Maryjane is the worst because she actually scammed people, thinks she’s on some mission, and really lives in delulu island with her endeavors. She’s still scamming and her Christian indoctrination seems far worse than Kelly. I just can’t understand Black women and their dedication to a religion that keeps them enslaved and a victim of patriarchy. It’s a mental disorder. I’m spiritual and am open to read any scripture from any religion (so I’m not intolerant) but I have eyes to see and notice some of the man-made indoctrination. I need Black women to wake up and know who they truly are. Anyway, the day someone makes a video about them 2 is a viral video *ahem* @TroyceTv 😂.
Those are my thoughts and thanks for reading.
Why would anyone that has a life of their own ever read all of this? 😂
@@edithandlez It’s a nearly hour video that you had the time to clearly click on and watch. I highlighted on some topics he discussed in said length of video. You see the length and choose to reply. Your comment and your action towards my comment doesn’t correlate Ma’am.
We need to start a conversation of how people often use religion as a means to an end or a tool to reinforce negativity instead of just practicing their faith bc it’s a way of navigating life. This is in part why the church, specifically the black church has gone down in drastic numbers nationwide. The grift is strong in keeping believers deluded especially black women as they make up a big portion of the church. The grift always seems to reinforce the behavior of pushing and dividing people from your life you wouldn’t otherwise do. It’s like being convinced you’re right that your self care methods involve being highly individualistic. That’s not healthy for anyone
@@edithandlez stop being a hater
I was a fan then quickly fell off the Stamps wagon when it was giving antiBlack. She was always around white men when i lived in her area. So when i realized the youtube girl is the girl i saw hanging around a bunch of dudes and particularly white men i knew what type of time she was on.
Oh wow! I was a fan as well. I unsubscribed to her channels early January 2024. I wanted to give her the benefit of the doubt… Big mistake! Thank you for sharing👏🏾!
And didn’t want to accept Boston as anti black til she experienced it
Didn't she grow up in a predominantly White environment tho?
What? That’s not a good reason to call her anti black because she likes yt men? She grew up with yt people and she is attracted to Asian and yt men.
God, I was suuuch a fan. She seemed quirky and relatable, but with time something seemed off... Like with her mental health. I think she needs constant validation and her ego has sky rocketed 🤷♀️
She seems kinda manic... 😮💨 Anyways, I hope she finds her path and gets better. She deserves happiness, as any other person.
This video can’t be fr…only certain kinds of Black people should be allowed freedom of expression? Every black person living in a western country, especially Black Americans in this case, will have their own trauma related to their experience and it’s dangerous to imply there’s only one right way to deal with that PTSD. If Kelly chooses to live her life as a somewhat removed/dry Black “upper class” woman she should have the freedom to do such, her socioeconomic status and sense of humor doesn’t make her any less Black or being worthy of living her life the way she wants to. We have to have all kinds of Black people be represented if we want to be seen as a non monolithic people
Thank you.
This is a valid point which is why I say Kelly is a complex issue, but I agree with this!
Its crazy and people saying because she lives in FL and it's not a democratic state she is weird and anti black lmaooo wtf
I agree 💯
I don’t think Jenna was being anti black
I think she was jealous she was being compared to her
Especially cuz they are very similar in looks and personality
Kelly was at the peak of her career and I really think Jenna was constantly compared to her and probably just didn’t find her relateable
Like there are ppl I used to stop watching that are black and successful
It’s mostly cuz they aren’t genuine anymore and mislead ppl
That doesn’t make me Antiblack 🤔
I guess Jenna took down her channel. I cannot locate it. ❤
Not that I think it matters what race she prefers to date, but to give balance to your points made on the topic, when Kelly was living in Atlanta, I distinctly remember her making comments on how good-looking, successful and southern gentlemanly the black men were there. I don't think Kelly is antiblack at all. While I'll admit some of her jokes didn't age well, she has a dry sense of humor. Black men/women make jokes all day about the stereotypes within the community, but because she doesn't fit the stereotype/ isn't in close proximity to the black community, ppl take offense to those same types of jokes when she makes them??
Kelly seems a lot like my younger self & most of the afro-something peers I grew up around(West Coast, suburbs) It was only after some travel, reflection, & life experiences that I realized how off-putting we can be to some ppl. I'm torn because there's also a lot of negative energy , weirdness and expectations blown in our direction from ppl of all colors. It's super exhausting being perceived as an 'uppity kneegro' and a 'weirdo.' The world says to 'be yourself' but that's as long as you fit into their boxes and comfort zones.
I also really liked Kelly stamps, I from time to time would side eye somethings, but I thought I would continue to support her. I related to her in terms of being interested in sports and activities you don't typically see black people in. However, I was lucky to grow up with family who would encourage. Plus I was really close with a lot of my cousin's since both of my parents had a lot of siblings. So I had the pleasure to grow up being around my black family even though we all loved in predominantly white areas in Canada.
I'm not surprised this is where she is now, but it's not fun to see. I stopped watching her after just before her fun religious arc, but when I saw your previous video about Kelly, I was like 😧 I don't think this is for me
I like Kelly for the most part, the one problematic part I found was her gaslighting the dark-skin woman's experience when she is on film sharing that her white peers in California were calling her an Oreo (38:15) and a racist man said she looked pretty for a black girl (38:34). That is some of the worst cognitive dissonance I've seen. The lady was not trauma-dumping but trying to relate to her as a human being. The radical feminist insult was also silly since she's on camera complaining about her mom not subsidizing her lifestyle (28:47). Why wasn't her father, a man, not paying for her a place to live then and being a provider?
*I know Kelly Stamps on an associate friendly level. I met her while we were both traveling. Her humor is not for those who don't have a good sense of self regardless of your phenotype. I do feel Kelly suffers some internalized racism, leans heavily on stereotypes sometimes in an effort to be humorous and worships whiteness. She also hasn't fully dealt with her trauma of having a covert narcissistic mother. Experience is teaching Kelly things her toxic mother couldn't. I told Kelly she reminded me of the scholarship kids at the private school I attended. She so desperately wanted white validation. Kelly has come a long way since I met her. She finally realizes true validation only comes from within and has educated herself on the myriad effects of institutional and systemic racism and discrimination. My hope is that Kelly won't carry the psychological effects of her family's generational trauma.* ❤
I noticed something wasn't right when she said she isn't a feminist and doesn't support girl bosses, with cognitive dissonance to the fact that that's literally what she is and how she makes her riches, she's so slow for that, This is one of the reasons I never really got into her channel
There's a difference between being a feminist and being an opportunist. Opportunistic behavior predates feminist theory. So it isn't cognitive dissonance on her part.
YES. I've been waiting for someone BLACK to do this. I liked her for a brief period of time and then listened to her rhetoric and ran off because it was all saturated by anti-Blackness.
i was a fan of kelly. i really like her content and when she converted i became a fan. the reason why i unsubscribed is because i noticed that something was going on with her, something mentally. (mind you, i binged her channel) if you're a casual fan of hers you wouldn't notice, but i did. i am worried for her and really pray for her that she is going to be okey mentally, but this isn't really her era
edit: and btw i've seen comments saying that she is ''bad'' because she is a conservative. it's ridiculous. i was part of both parties and leftist have just as much dirt on their hands as conservatives. on both sides there awful people and on both sides there are also really great people, let's please not stereotype each group
Kelly is just feeling lost in life. She found happiness with her new man, but she’s still a little lost on what to do in life. It’s a normal feeling and does seem to affect her mentally. Going from being successful to not so much as successful before and not knowing what to do next can put a strain on someone mentally.
Dude bye, Leftists DO NOT have as much dirt on our hands as conservatives quite the opposite actually since we're the ones who have always fought for human rights whereas the right has always done the opposite, literally not comparable at all unless the supposed dirt on our hands are winning rights for people
most of the things u say r valid but omg her dating is none of your business. and how is bringing up her ADHD relavent to the topic????
Because a lot of times, antiblackness habits influences dating preferences as well and the mention of ADHD is important to bring up because it can shed light on why she says or does certain behaviours
Also she’s created a social media presence where half her online identity is being the Black girl that wants a White man. Since that is what she talks about, it’s what we talk about. That’s like viewing a makeup girlie and not talking about how she applied makeup. 😂 People comment on the content that is presented.
@@sandriais that’s not what she speaks about??? I remember her being very vocal about celibacy for two years. Her content is mostly vlogging and life planning
I don’t disagree that she’s anti black but I don’t feel like showing her dating a white man solidifies that points
@@sandriaisAnd?
I haven’t finished completely but I hate how people normalize paying rent to parents when they are trying to get on their feet. I would never have my child pay rent, especially if they have goals ambitions in place. You know if your child is a layabout. Kelly is not one of those. Not to completely defend Kelly cause I have my issues with her, it’s just that one thing that really irks me. I went to stay with my mom for a bit (yes in my 20s) and she did not make me pay. I know for a fact if she didn’t let me save the way I did, I would not be anywhere near as successful today. Not that I’m crazy successful but I know I wouldn’t have a six-figure salary (not that money is the only marker for success), I’d be way behind
I haven't finished the video yet - I will - but please leave the comedians alone. Life will be so boring if we keep over-dissecting jokes.
I agree
But its no longer funny. Thats the problem. U cant keep defending mediocre tone deaf comedians. Its just lazy and id argue it was very spotty (as in not funny) for some time.
Great video! I watched her channel off and on over the years but felt something was off because some of her comments around her hair. When I saw her second channel and hard shift towards conservative Christian was the end for me. Look forward to the next video!
Thank you so much! My mom, sisters, and I tried to give her grace with the hair comments. However, I knew some folks would find her comments out of place. If you do not mind me asking. What hair comments you didn’t appreciated from Kelly Stamps🧐?
@@JulianSteve She had a couple of videos where she talked about why she wore her hair straight (I think she got Japanese or Brazilian straightening treatments) and it seemed more like she was working to somewhat “assimilate” in some ways, and even the comments on people sexualizing her because of her hair when it was clearly still straight but roots grown out a bit were weird to me.
@@benzatl Oh shit! I forgot about that. I remembered her saying that a couple of times. I forgot the exact videos where she talked about Brazilian and Japanese hair “treatments.” As for the over sexualizing of her hair… Yeah, I see it in the clips I pulled😬…
You can tell she has insecurities around class and money and she thinks the problem is blackness or Christianity. Like no girl it’s your trauma and experience with family and money, not about your race
In one of her videos, she said she admired Candace Owens.. tells you everything you need to know about her beliefs.
Not you giving me a safe space to express my thoughts about Kelly stamps! I used to really like her, but once her video dropped on her second channel about not being a “woke” black woman, I had to go. She lost me forever. Also, subscribed!
Side note: I don’t need her to be woke, but the language and undertones in that video gave very much Asap Rocky and the BLM/Ferguson debacle, but that’s just me.
You don't need her to be woke, but that was the deal breaker?💀
@@supwhatsupdudes correct 💀
I'm curious about this bc I haven't heard of her in a while. I somehow found her videos a few years ago pop up on my feed and I watched a couple videos. I stopped watching for some reason but I'm excited to watch your video.
Evangelical, southern Christians have an aesthetic. It’s rather disappointing to see people come to faith and use it as a form of elitism.
She not Southern
Exactly it's annoying
This video is anti-middle class black woman. Kelly’s assessment of NYC is fairly accurate. I’m from New York, Brooklyn to be precise, born and raised. RUclips is about self expression and we as black people need to allow other black ppl to express themselves the way they want. I haven’t watched Kelly since December 2020 because I was living my life, and the algorithm stopped recommending her to me and it eventually became out-of-sight out-of-mind so I have no dog in this fight. However, making a video about Kelly who grew up middle class as anti-black is nasty work. This is why we can’t get ahead…because we love to bring down anyone black, who we perceive as “different”. We ask the question “who’s the black Alix Earl?” And why aren’t black ppl getting certain brand deals$$$$? Yet we have a black woman content creator doing numbers and we complain that they’re anti-black and not relatable. Just say you don’t like her because she doesn’t fit your idea of a stereotypical bw and go watch Beyoncé or something. Let’s not even get started on how you look or sound, Julian….but I’m going to be nice because that is not the way, just like this video is not the way. We don’t always have to make negative think pieces about black women, especially when they’re just living their life not harming a soul.
I'm sure I heard Kelly say that her mother had elements of narcissism - and living with that kind of toxicity can REALLY do a number on you. I come from a similar situation so I know how hard it is - we don't know what happens between them behind closed doors so I feel that part of the commentary was a bit...out of touch (personally) - I could be wrong but I'm sure I heard that quite some time ago, as part of a Better Help sponsored vid.
i’ve noticed the subtle anti blkness too but there are plenty of people on this platform that do that unfortunately 🤷🏾♀️
her antiblackness is one thing (which i def picked up early one) but when she started saying transphobic stuff as of recently it was an even HARDER no for me.
whats wrong with only dating white men
This is an interesting video! I can relate to being called white washed when i was younger cuz i spent most of my years in a predominantly white neighbourhood so i do understand.
However, you can control the way you react to it. I could have distanced myself further away from black culture but I didn't! You can't allow a small number of people make you hate who you are. I cannot sympathize with people who are grown and have this mentality, I can understand but that's about it.
What do you mean by Black culture? 🤔 Genuinely curious
“White, old, and rich to be specific” 😂😂😂
I miss Kelly Stamps skits, they were hilarious. She's a comedian and entertaining. I don't think Kelly is Anti-Black. Being Black is not monolithic.
Hmmmmm. She's been catching heat for a while. However, I really didn't pay much attention to it all because I really didn't watch her like that. We're in different generations, so I just thought her content was for THOSE type of Black folks.
But then your video popped up on my recommendations.
Whew!!! She really is on one. She's like the wanna be comedy version of Candace Owens.
Why do I have the feeling that if she wasn't Black, she wouldn't be on RUclips or have a following, because have you ever seen ppl of other races speak about themselves and their race in such a way? I don't think she would have as many fans (white folks) if she did this as a white girl.
As for Jennah, I saw her video. The 2nd video. And that's what made me stop watching her. Then I saw that Spencer did a video on Kelly. It seemed like it was a fake video where he was sharing how popular she is and going into how she makes a lot of money as a RUclipsr but lives a frugal lifestyle ... it seemed like it was an un-paid paid promotional video.
Anywho, I steer clear of these types of Black RUclipsrs. The ones who vlog about their lives and make Stabs And jabs at their Blackness.
I can't relate.
Anywho!!! AWESOME video. Just because someone looks like us, it doesn't mean that they're about US.
😊
Edit: Paying Rent
She needs to calm down on this. Adult children should not be up in their parents' house living for free.
I remember when I was between college and my real REAL job at NASA, I paid rent to my mom. It helped to pay for groceries, utilities, and the taking up space in HER HOUSE. But, unbeknownst to me, she was saving it all for when I moved out so I could have money for a deposit on an apartment, furniture, and money for whatever else I needed the 8k for.
Oh, and I grew up an only child and military brat. But I was very aware of my Black & Hispanic -ness even though my phenotype says 'Black Girl'! I have been called an oreo, but that's a them problem. I spoke 4 languages back when i was a young lady, now almost 6. I've been called uppity because of my degrees. But, hey. We live in a weird world. We can't control other people.
I think Kelly has some serious identity issues. But, to each his own. Some people don't mind watching a train wreck in slow motion... except, she's the train wreck.
Thank you so much for this comment! You shared a lot of interesting points. I’m happy that you mentioned the paying rent part. In this economy, one income is not enough. At least for most people. I hope more people see your comment👏🏾!
@@JulianSteve Keep Up The Excellent Work. I float between several RUclips Accounts (this is my non-creative account) so I can answer more freely without running the risk of getting my creative accounts cancelled. But I still keep an eye for your content. Smiles!!!
Now, I am going to fade to Black and allow you to do what you do. Just keep on with the thought provoking content!!! 😘
Props to you for being able to speak 6 languages!
@@apinchofdisappointment Smiles. I tell everyone, it's not that hard. If you have a desire to learn, anything can be learned and retained. But Thank You for the compliment!!!
7:01 I’m sorry this is SO funny. These clips are incredible I’m dying 😂
I used to watch her all the time, until she really started going hard on Christianity. She was so funny and relatable and I just can’t relate to her anymore.
I feel like she also uses misogynistic language
What did Kelly’s mom do to her? I used to watch her quite often a few years back but don’t remember her saying much about her mom.
I honestly have no idea but she has severe mommy issues. She loved her dad a lot though so his death left a huge impact on her.
She said her mom is a narcissist. But yeah she really changed after her dad passed
@@minxxoxo I wonder why that is. Did her mom abandon her? Was she raised by her dad? Her upbringing was middle class right?
@@Sakura_kiss986 I wonder why that is. Did her mom abandon her? Was she raised by her dad? Her upbringing was middle class right?
Her mother is a narcissist and Kelly goes through narcissistic abu$3 concerning her mother.
I thought I was the only one who noticed
Is this satire?
Kelly can be whoever she wants to identify with? I've never seen her deny she is a woman of color!
That would be delusional! (Her denying that she’s “black”) It doesn’t mean she doesn’t display tendencies that come off as anti black. I’m of the opinion that what people think of you shouldn’t be an issue for you… if it is you will always be running in circles trying to please, an impossible feat. I’m of the opinion that we should try to be a good person, who is kind and good to the people in our lives.
Thank you for making me aware of this situation.
Anytime, Kianta! Thank you for being here🫶🏾!
Julian I feel like you mad cuz she talked ish about your hometown 😂😂😂
She wasn't off about the Bumble comment.
Unfortunately a lot of her personality gives covert pick-me. In the early days it was so easy to take her jokes as harmless coz she was relatable and very much not conservative or a bible thumper. And i agree with jenna on one point. the moment she “blew” up all she could ever put out were vids on how to blow up how to gain subs etc. it felt very disingenuous and tacky. It totally leans into traces of antiblackness with the underlying intention being to prove oneself by putting yourself in a position where u teach the viewer and basically receive validation for reaching a milestone which isnt a bad thing! But why not keep rolling out the original content? No other successful vlogger is moving like that on youtube. Its giving podcast bro honestly. And i dont think theres anything wrong with making money and buying luxury i can enjoy that kind of content but the context and her viewpoints have changed
i love how you say "mi gente"
Kelly Stamps is a super awesome black woman. She has every right to be herself and use her freedom of speech in a free country. I love that she's in love with her Christian faith, her being conservative is completely okay, and it's completely fine that she loves white men. When a black woman like Kelly Stamps doesn't fit into the typical black woman mold, people start to hate. I personally agree with everything she's said as a black woman myself. The same people who complain how black people are not a monolith are the same people who get angry seeing a black woman like Kelly Stamps. The same people who praise growth and change are the same people who are angry seeing Kelly Stamps grow and change. I think the human race as a whole is hypocritical.
Do you have finches? I hear birds in the back… 🥰🥰🐥
😂😂😂 I think he got a hamster
I too thought he was a bird parent.
I feel like she will respond 😂
And it will be the most manic unhinged thing ever 😂
ive never watched her before mind you but
Am i the only one who thought her jokes weren't like "anti black" because she has that type of humor (the ones at the beginning all the way ruo to "i should just be president") ? im the same with sort of cynic jokes and i definitely dont hate black men or people at all 😭 i dont think it's meant to make fun of anyone, some make light of their pain and when you think about it those people would probably make fun of her-- so who's more right?
33:48 Kelly in front of those White men and laughing "It's not your job to change someone" This is true but it says a lot about you if you continue to engage with a man that does that.
It’s fascinating seeing hate-watchers make videos & comments about unproblematic people for no other reason than their own misery and attention-seeking. Y’all are a psychology case study. 🤷🏾♀️ And who knows yall’s true agenda honestly.
This was a very well done, and thorough video. Thank you Julian 🖤🖤🙏🏿.
Thank you for always being on time, Nicole. I appreciate it❤️🥲!
@JulianSteve there is a bird noise in the background that's a bit distracting
He has a bird… what can he do?!?
Kelly is the realest out here. Bye 👋🏾
You have to fix to the audio very distracting
Of course
I stopped watching Kelly after her playing the victim for people wanting her to to say something about the G Floyd thing. She's consumed by right wing media because she has no one in her life.
❤❤❤
very well researched video on a topic we have all been thinking about!
Are you slow?
Are you?
@@MissTeaqare you?
Please don’t equate her saying she has to pay rent to that being her mommy issues. You have no clue what it’s like to be the daughter of a mother who hates you. Who brags about you going to college or your accomplishments but did not help you get them. Also, my mom charged me rent and was buying purses. I come from a single mom, semi-middle class post my mom getting out of the military. Don’t assume all parents are great and loving. Also, you pointed out she grew up in a mainly white/mixed area and wonder why she has a type? Who is she supposed to like, “her people”? The people who tell you that you “act white”? 🤔. The fact that you chuckled at the Oreo thing and said it was messed up shows you don’t GET how that feels, to be yourself and not be accepted in your community. I could leave a longer comment but I won’t. Cause I’m not even done with the video. You should interview people who grew up like this and then maybe you will see how easy it is to turn out the way she is. Also look into neurodivergent people. They don’t make the best therapist for people to trauma dump on. Go pay a therapist for that 😅. My goodness. Yeah I’ll leave this comment.
Yeah that part and the rest weren’t that problematic to me “she wasn’t grateful”…. She’s spoken at length the fact her mom was damaging towards her. Why would she be? The only side eye worthy thing for me is how she talked about her hair and the weird jokes about black men. Even the not wanting to speak on certain issues? Like she said she gets worked up and wants to protect her peace. She doesn’t want to be a talk person for issues. It’s her channel and her energy she can do whatever she wants with it. Other than that she’s young and has a weird sense of humor that you can either take or leave. She comes across as a black girl raised around white people that needs therapy - I wish her the best and I still watch her occasionally but I won’t pretend there isn’t anything I see she might need help with.
Kelly SHOULD be paying her mother rent.
If you were 18+ when you went to college then your mother SHOULD NOT HAVE to help you with college and your accomplishments. Your mother spending your rent money on purses is no dofferent than your landlord spending your rent money on purses, whom youd ALSO be paying if you hadnt lived with your mom. This level of entitlement is INSANE.
@@TomikaKelly For some circles, it’s entitled. For others, it’s just your parents doing their part to help you get a leg up in society and not at all entitlement. Imagine as a student going to college and only focusing on your schooling and not having to pay bills.
@@TomikaKellyyuck. I pray you never become a mother. You are vile
