Encouraging young kids to dress “skimpy” is the definition of grooming. So creepy.
This🙌🙌
Literally. 🤢
Tbh she sheltered it so well cos her Miranda videos were abt how you should be dressing like her and not "skimpy and sltty" yet she would encourage it
This is so icky. I get that miranda is supposed to be a weirdo character but you can create a weirdo character without putting anyone in danger. If an underage girl wearing spanx is the saving grace in the situation, several red flags have been missed.
Hold your beer. Her ukulele playing response video is even more cringe than you can imagine
PLEASE do her “accountability” video Colleen JUST posted. She created a SONG of all things that dismisses everyone so get it before she does a dirty delete. I’d love to hear what you have to think about it. It’s so absurd and disappointing. :( 😊
Yes I just watched Adam do a react to it. That song is something else and full of contradictions.
@Observe !!!
@@amandamandamands Yes definitely. Even though the average person can see right through it .. I still want to hear what Observe has to say, LOL.
Yes please!!!
Also Adam posted another video yesterday where he bought a ukulele to play watching it again and it is GOLD lol
hearing the victims blame themselves, even defensively, again and again "Yes I was a child and naive", "I wore something skimpy to get picked" etc etc...the fact that they even have to defend those actions or just EXISTING as minors because this horrible woman took advantage of them is HEARTBREAKING. Everyone speaking up seems either a little scared or still angry and I just wish all the strength and healing toward them, I hope they know theyre all supported against Colleen even if it shouldve happened sooner, they always shouldve had a voice
I’m a woman who was drugged at r**** at the age of 19 by a 32 year old man. He was the friend of a friend who I trusted, so I trusted their judgement in inviting him to my home. Sadly, my judgement was misplaced…
This was over a decade ago at this point, and I am still totally f****** up by it. So much time was/is spent like these people feeling guilt and shame and anger and fear and trying to shoulder blame because our shame makes us feel like that’s what we should do.
It’s something that truly and deeply impacts your life for years and years and years by making you feel insecure and afraid in pretty much every aspect of your life. I don’t think people get that. It impacts EVERYTHING you experience from then on out because you are wholly changed as a person.
My heart goes out to these people and anyone else who has experienced assault, grooming, abuses of power, etc. I don’t wish what I’ve been through on my worst enemy.
To any victims (of anyone) out there - You are strong. You are NOT to blame. YOU ARE WORTHY OF HAPPINESS. Don’t be afraid. Don’t doubt yourself. Don’t let evil people keep taking from you!! Go and live and experience your life. Do not allow them to continue to take your power!! Take your control back. Don’t let your shame eat you alive. I BELIEVE IN YOU. It is a long and scary road, but you’ve already been through the worst of it. Keep going. I cannot reiterate this enough, you deserve to be happy. You are worthy. Never be ashamed to seek professional help. You are loved and you are worthy of it. Don’t you EVER forget that.
Now it came out the U.S. news has been covering up when PopexFrancis covered up abuse. The Galilea Report shows a great deal and sad society enables Francis and worships him instead of protecting kids. #clergyABUSE N.Galilea wrote a The Report
@@wateryourcermet I'm sorry you went through that :( I hope you heal.
@wateryourcermet really powerful words; well said. My experience with unwanted intimate contact was very fleeting (amounting to pinching in uncomfortable areas and similar), but they're still moments I distinctly remember even years later. I can't believe what it must be like to live past such an experience as Becky's, where you're compromised and sexualised before an entire audience, and then having to fight tooth and nail just to be taken seriously because your abuser has made it their absolute goal to minimise what they did and weaponise their power against you.
At least I had the luxury of never contacting the people who wronged me again without the fear that they'll suddenly throw a proverbial spanner in the works down the road.
I don't think they're blaming themselves, I see it as they are explaining the circumstances which lead to themselves being open to the abuse and it shouldn't be seen as blame because it wasn't their fault and I don't see it that way at all. Also, I think their responses are appropriate given the circumstances, being upset... embarrassed or angry about the situation is appropriate or else everyone would be like Johnny, fake and smiling the whole time over something traumatic. It wouldn't be seen as something to take too seriously if they'd respond any other way. If anything, your comment insinuates they are suffering, weak and full of self blame and I don't see the victims in this case like that. If anything they're being brave and vulnerable by sharing their story to create more awareness.
Imagine thinking that not letting someone shower is an appropriate disciplinary action. What a nightmare.
Especially with a minor/barely an adult person?!
Also, it probably violated some labor law... it sounds very illegal
Her behavior is predatory, no matter how you shake it. The excuses of her being “sheltered” is horrifying. Would you have the same feeling if this were a male? Would they still just have been “sheltered” and “ignorant”? I think not.
Ah yes male predators never get protected and their abuse never gets downplayed 😂
@@hashtagmateecause when it comes to girls and women many people and willing to make bs excuses for them. Colleen sexualized children on stage.. Infront of *parents* and more children. Having children on stage and using them and their bodies for "entertainment".. If a man had done that? Making a child take his hands down colleen's pants looking for cheese balls? There would 100% be a different story.
@@hashtagmateliterally nobody said that.
Super good point. No one would be defending her
@@hashtagmate thats not the point being made. the point is people willingly accept excuses from female predators because no one wants to believe women can be disgusting and awful too. people are more willingly to sweep a womans inappropriateness to the side when they would feel differently towards a man. no ne is denying that male abusers are protected. its just more common for women not to be viewd as monsters even when they should be.
Now you have to do her “apology video” where she plays a ukelele.
Seriously… she does. It’s terrible.
The fact that she has a “porn bit” in her show directed towards underage people is concerning in itself…..I also am shocked that the parents who took their children to these shows were comfortable with their children being involved in this
Who else is here rewatching after Johnny has been found out? I’m curious to see if there was any clues.
When you’re enamored with someone, it can be easy to miss all the ways they are abusing you and all the wrong things they do in general. No one should be criticizing the choices the fans made when they were teenagers and still blind to her predatory and “user” tendencies
Especially if your brain is literally underdeveloped because you’re a CHILD still
Spot on! It doesn't matter if these people seemingly allowed Colleen to do these things out of their own volition; they were still being coerced using power dynamics by an influential person who rewarded them for these problematic behaviours.
That’s the problem with rose colored glasses is that all the red flags just look like flags. 😔
I don’t know a single family channel that doesn’t end up with some sort of deplorable controversy. They exploit their own children, of course they don’t care about other people’s children.
We usually don’t see hardcore proof of their deplorability. In this case, there’s soooo many receipts the whole family can’t refute.
Perfectly said
How about this channel? Hes got his own alligations, wonder who will talk about those...
@@maybenotserious?
@@maybenotserious you mean this youtube channel, Observe?
Would be very interested in seeing your take on Johnny Silvestre's various interviews following Swoop's investigation.
Women can be predators too.
I want to say "of course, everyone knows that," but experience has taught me otherwise. A shockingly large number of people think only men can be predators.
@@ResidentMilfLook up Mary kay letourneau the teacher with kids and a husband, she started a relationship with her student which turned sexual the 13 yr old ended up getting her pregnant twice. Sickest shit ever.
1000%
And these double standards are incredibly nauseating
Yes they can. There are more out there than I realized. I thought I was alone for a long time but no women can be cruel and abusive. Verbal and physical abuse for years wears you down.
15:58 it’s interesting to hear your analysis of Johnny in light of Swoop’s latest video, and see how you identified his anxious movements and defensiveness
Thank you for continuing to shed light on this situation and make it more well known. These people need to be held accountable.
She’s hoping it fades away
@@IHeArTrOcK20
Because this person is female, she will absolutely get away with this.
That's just how it is with society & the courts & female PRIVILEGE. smh
@@IHeArTrOcK20 because she’s sick in the head and doesn’t see what she’s doing wrong, so sick of these people
Actually the fact that NBC wrote an article about it like 4 days ago, plus channels like this that aren't really 'just a drama channel' shedding light on it & holding her accountable is giving me just a tiny little bit of hope that she'll either maybe be unable to be as disgusting and traumatizing this round of her tour, or it would be even freaking better if she just cancels the whole tour. She's absolutely a total garbage human who doesn't deserve the pedestal she's been on for over a decade, and I hope CB will feel even at least 10% of the humiliation and pain she's caused countless others... furthermore I hope that her ex-husband is a better person & that wherever her 3 beautiful children are raised, that it's somewhere safe and healthy, and that if/when they do find out about allllllllll these things that are coming out about their mother on the internet, that they're in a good place mentally and are able to handle it in healthy and not detrimental ways... ❤
@@danysanerd2383 Are Erik and Colleen getting a Divorce? You said Ex-Husband and Her Children...
I love how Colleen thinks grooming children is indicative of being quirky and weird like a dorky aunt (??) instead of recognizing it for what it is. It proves how sick she actually is.
She is p word.. women can be one too...
Considering predatory behaviour seems to be the butt of every joke she makes during live shows, her Netflix show, etc- I’m worried that she was possibly a victim of this behaviour herself and never realized how weird it is to act this way around children.
@@coochiefruity sorry but she is 36 years old. No excuses. I was a victim of se%ual abuse at age 9. Then, same as today I knew it was wrong. At age 12, puberty age i never ever thought of anyone younger than me on that way or to act like that in front of younger kids. Don't ever make excuse for adults. Adults know very well what is right and what is wrong. Very well, there is no I did not know, I did not realise, once you pass age 15, you know very well that behaviour is not right, by the age of 25 you know it for sure.. even if she was a victim that is no excuse, she is 36, 5 years younger than me.
If I and millions of us all over the world seek help once we hit 20ties coz we were adults and we knew what happened to us was wrong, if we read articles, saw shows covering those topics, so did she. So even if she once, long time ago was a victim there is no excuse, she is an adult, 36 year old woman..
If she would be a man we would not even have all of these conversations and debates all over internet, no one would ask was she a victim as a child.. same treatment as anyone else is what she deserves and no excuses... This is not 1946 or 1929 or 1956 or 77, she was born at 87, become adult around 2007, there is no, she never realised, this is not a taboo any more.. there is no excuse...none...
She doesn’t think that. She’s lying. She knows what she is.
The craziest thing is that this young girls experience is an intentional part of her show. She did it over and over again. I really dont understand how this woman has continued to have a platform for so long and why netflix ever agreed to make this show and targeted the show to kids. I feel so sorry for all the people she has abused and gas lighted. The miranda character is so gross and needs to be done.
Netflix really? I don’t even know who this is I’ve just seen people reacting to this
@@rumham7466 yeah she made 2 seasons of this show with Netflix and last I checked it was still categorized for children even when this all started coming up and the character being inappropriate to be for kids started being questioned
Tbf Netflix did allow Cuties, which was pretty feckin concerning (put lightly)
She did the same skit at her show a few days ago but had Erik (husband) on stage.
@@witchypeoniflorallungs3044 true. Ugh. Forgot about that awful atrocious abomination
I was a fan of Colleen's vlogs and never paid attention to her Miranda character but I did hear about the allegations in 2017 and I'm so ashamed that I didn't look into it more, and continued to support Colleen
I’m in the same boat. I didn’t hear any allegations until her 2020 apology video. I didn’t look into it further. She’s a very effective manipulator. I was so sure that she was sincere in her apology.
I think the same thing happened to me but I was fooled by her apology video because she even manipulated the clip she shared! She cut out the whole beginning of conversation when she was asking Adam to take the panties. Had I know then, what I know now.
She should be the one who's feeling ashamed but apparently we're all just on the toxic train 😂
I was the same way. Her first “apology” video was done so well (or so I thought) that I looked at any negative feelings regarding Colleen as “haters.” I wasn’t the biggest fan of Miranda but I thought Colleen was great. But, now with the recent videos and actually sitting down and watching, I’m ashamed to have seen Adam and others in a negative wat. I opened my mind and realized how manipulative Colleen truly is. Especially with her second “apology” video, my gut was on the ground. I’m grateful though for seeing all these videos and seeing her video… it showed me her true colors as an individual and finalized my feelings for her.
You wouldn't have found anything in 2017 anyways! She lied and hid everything until Adam spoke up.
Give yourself some room for forgiveness and use this as a lesson to be more careful in the future ❤ You deserve to let go of that guilt
The fact she’s still on tour and poking jokes about it is so icky.
shes doing WHAT now?!
@@rainestar82 Yep has added a new bit at the beginning where Erik comes out and says something about he has the best wife in the world and Miranda replies that's not what I heard.
the ukulele apology is truly baffling and inexplicable
@@amandamandamands it is crazy how she is still doing those shows, altho I heard another youtuber just explain that tickets sell for 5 dollars instead of the normal 70, not sure if that is true. But that Erik is defending her... makes me cringe even more. How did he not open his eyes on all this stuff.
@@mirabelarmstrong8518 commented before the ukulele video. My gosh can you imagine being quiet for 4 weeks, having all that time to think, record, edit and then POST IT?!? Girl please🤣🤣🤣
The "I'm just the weird aunt" argument is so strange to me - surely we all know the creepy uncle in our lives is a PREDIT0R
Its insane that she claimed to be sheltered. She grew up like right outside LA, did she not? Im literally from SE Alaska, from a town with no roads in/out. I actually saw an episode or 2 of her show on netflix, but immediately i felt like i was the butt of all her jokes (im disabled and neurodivergent) and then when she "joked" about the uncle i noped out so damn fast. Ive always known that grooming kids is disgusting, ableism is disgusting, joking about the things she joked about is disgusting. Being racist is disgusting. Nobody had to tell me not to be racist, thats crazy that she claimed to just be naive. Ignorance and naivete are not the same. At all.
👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻
The character was modeled after her disabled loved one, I believe a cousin. It's just as awful as it seems.
anti-ableism high-fives and internet hugs! this just throws a whole other layer to how gross she is. thank you for sharing this.
I heard she made the character to mock and bully certain people so yeah...
Funny to see some of us here after the swoop video lol... this was a major test/challenge for Observe. Just starting the video now, let's see how it goes.
I'm partway in and I notice he's feeling some ways about Johnny's demeanor and presentation while trying not to invalidate someone who was known solely as a victim at the time.
Would like to see you rewatch this clip of Johnny after swoops doc. I sense that you see things, but in the former light of his story you are beeing very respectful and take this narrative into your comments. Witch is good! But the narrative and story has changed
A day after watching SWOOP’s video on Johnny and how he seemingly lied about almost everything he said and his part in all of this.. is very eye opening to how body language analysis can not be used to tell the truth in REALLY good and practiced liars. /:
EDIT:
Just to add that my comment is in no way, shape, or form intended to be an insult to anyone, esp the creator of this page who is very clearly knowledgeable, respectful, and fantastic at explaining his area of expertise! It was also not intended to be a way of discrediting body language analysis in any way, either. I just believe that Johnny came up with these lies in order to both deflect his part in this entire situation where he has been proven to be as involved in minor group chats as well as place himself in the spotlight for more attention. It seems, to me, that he actually believes these lies he’s telling. I know how the internet can be so pls don’t come at me for my take on all of this! ❤
I agree but I also think an important thing to note is observe did pick up on the behaviors but saw it in the light of an actual victim which I definitely think is an issue with body language. It is especially hard with this situation because who would think he is lying (at this time). You’re so right, body analysis and context can be messy and really relies on the situation/prior knowledge of what’s going on. I guess that is dirt if the issue you pointed out
Also this was the first video where Johnny ‘spoke out’ so there wasn’t too much of an original base line so it wouldn’t be super easy to pick up his tells.
I do not think Johnny is a good liar at all. He can’t keep a story straight.
Her new apology song spells out how bad of a person she has always been
NEVER liked her....she just ALWAYS made my skin crawl...
I have to agree. I’m glad I didn’t really watch her content. As an adult now I’m always suspicious of adults that make content for children. Especially sexually charged content like a loooot of RUclipsrs make. It’s suuuuper weird. Always a big red flag
@@spacecookiez67here definitely some truth to this so I heard from a Prison RUclipsr that he says that Chomos as he calls it they watch Kids shows like Blues Clues and anything with Kids even if they get beat up for it they got a impulse just to continue to consume Kids Content
@@DJ-iu5bb for sure. I can imagine they would do that. It’s just very strange. Make videos for adults. Kids don’t need to be consuming that kind of content anyways. It’s just really strange
Not on the topic, but Logan’s style is always on point. 👌🏼
I was also thinking how nice he looks today
We need to talk about female PEDO'S, cos their tactics are so much more subtle.
@@jamesmontana1881 have you seen her “apology” video? Yikes.
@@mcdadiii
Sorry to reply so slow, yeah no I have not, is it worth a watch ?
@@jamesmontana1881 it’s very cringy and dodges accountability for actions. Dunno if it’s worth the watch, it made me angry for the victims.
Dressing up to get called up on stage for a porn bit to be degraded is definitely a weird thing to hope for even for a young person. Super sad to see young people want something like that. Wish children could look up to people worthy of that. :(
Imagine if the roles where reversed, he would be cancelled & chased with pitch forks, then strung up, double standards & female privilege are to blame, we need equality.
It's f*cked up I know. smh
@@jamesmontana1881 kids should be educated more on what is toxic and how to have strict boundaries. I do believe she got away with it as long as she did because she's a woman. I just hope she is held accountable but more than anything I hope things start to change and people encourage the youth to have higher standards for who they admire and trust.
It is, having seen clips of that bit it is someone wearing normal clothes (have seen a couple of small snippets and one was wearing a tank and denim shorts, the other the person was wearing a crop tank and track pants) and someone dressed like Miranda. She just keeps going about how the person dressed like her is dressed appropriately and the other person is porn. Even though you are up there to be mocked, everyone is laughing because there isn't anything wrong with the way the 'p0rn' person is dressed.
It's a fault in the influencer, not the child.
Children don't know that adults shouldn't be trusted when they are in positions of trust.
That's why you get more jail time if you're in a position of trust.
Blaming the child is gross.
I got in the car with my mom's boyfriend because he told me he was taking me to the fair when I was 11.
Is that my fault that he didn't take me to the fair?
I also didn't know I should've called 911 when he took me to his apartment.
Too bad I didn't listen to better adults, huh?
@@jamesmontana1881female privilege?
There's never been a female President! Do you hear yourself?
Stop with the female privilege.
Don't use this story to create a big lie. Women couldn't vote till the 40's.
Women couldn't get a credit card without their husband's signature in the 70's.
Men still hold power in our society more than females.
Men still abuse more often than women.
What this woman does is evil.
Call her out.
But GEEZUS
'Female privilege' isn't a thing.
Let’s not forget she also made videos TARGETING CHILDREN where she made jokes alluding to her uncle s3xually abu$ing her and went as far as to call a position where she was on the floor and had someone on top of her as “uncle”. She is extremely harmful and I never knew about the details of the crap she was promoting to kids.
Edit: also she posted a lot of videos showing pregnancy, highlighting big bellies, making jokes about being pregnant, knowing her dad fetishizes pregnant women 🤮
But that's a known thing, though. When you're pinned by someone, you say uncle to give up and have them release you. Is that what you meant? I don't know where that comes from, though.
@@plumdutchessnooooo…. Her child audience would have known this was on context with her creepy uncle character so just because the joke works on both levels doesn’t meant it’s okay or not nasty. Also she wasn’t pinned. I don’t want to go back and look at that disgusting shit but she had someone on top of her, her hands were free, it’s not a wrestling move.
Finally we are talking about female PEDO'S, they go under the radar, they're much more sneaky.
Because male's have no natural FEAR of female's, little boy's are easily blissfully unaware of the danger they're in.
Scary I know. 😢
@@Nick-pc7km I am honestly not surprised.
@@Nick-pc7km Don't forget that James Charles defended her in 2020 too
Came here to watch Jonathan's review of his body language after Swoops video and you were spot on but for different reasons than we thought. He was feeling superiority, contempt, anger, uneasiness etc. All his "but's" also make sense since he likes to excuse and deflect. This dude is rotten.
FOR REAL
After swoop’s most recent video, watching the part where Observe says that Johnny isn’t showing any signs of inauthenticity and repeatedly says he’s seeing synchronicity… it really just makes me think that body language analysis is a completely useless field. Even someone like Observe - who does this professionally and for years and with hundreds of videos on the topic - still can’t read anything more than absolutely surface details, and leans heavily on public consensus to completely steer the narrative that develops from those surface details. What’s the point of any of this. It just seems like the worst kind of confirmation bias.
(edited to add a word i forgot woops)
Yeah…I agree with you. :/
@@heyitsmedeeeee not discrediting victims is good of course. I think we all want to believe victims, and the case of johnny sucks so bad for what it means for real victims coming forward in the future. And then I also think if a topic is so fraught that you cannot be objective, and if public consensus or other outside context is going to strongly discourage anything other than a certain perspective, then maybe that needs to be stated more clearly in the videos Observe makes. I dunno. I’m just surprised there’s still people in the comments sections of Observe videos who think that these analyses are proving anything other than “this is the popular consensus about this internet drama of the week”.
Woah, can I just say that your content is extraordinarilly well done? I‘ve always liked your videos and the analysis but been away for 6 months. Came back, saw this video and binge watched immediately, saw your new amazing profile pic and just have to say that you really entered a new level of quality when it comes to your content (that was already amazing)! Keep up the great work! I love it! 🙌🏼👍🏼👏🏼 Best wishes from Germany. 😃 - Eve
Welcome back! 😁💚 thank you so much!!
The thing I feel is, when I was younger and watched her content its so crazy how normalized the “sex jokes and talk” was. But now looking back at it and realizing we were a bunch of kids and that her channels viewers are mostly kids is such a shocking realization. It’s like when somebody gets abused but they think everyone else gets treated that way, until people around them start telling them that whats going on is not normal.
Great breakdown! Colleen needs to be held accountable. She got a pass in 2020 but all this recent evidence and anecdotes really make it indisputable that she took advantage of minors and held inappropriate relationships with them.
When the description of the situation is, "and then the adult spread the teenager's legs," all of the alarms should be going off. All of them.
Oh but she's just a silly goose 🤪 and now she's sung a sing to us we can all believe in her again 😂
She just sang her apology... you HAVE to react!!
With that clickbait title and cover
@@TeazTeaz I'm still in shock, I thought she would take this seriously and do an actual apology.
Does any of this go against YT’s terms of service? I’m sick of seeing these people getting the social slap on the wrist, and going back to their old ways once the heat dies down. From my impression Colleen has created an environment for not just herself, but for her sidekick/assistant and even brother to groom and have inappropriate relationships with children, and teens. It’s disgusting and a huge abuse of power.
I'm not sure what the options are for reporting channels. Is there one for grooming your young audience? Sexualizing children? Exploiting your own? Either way, still worth reporting them.
Seeing as James Charles and James Dawson still have their channels as well as Jake and Logan Paul I am going to say that they don't care if the channel is big enough.
@@amandamandamands it’s depressing
Yes, then smaller channels are forced to say, ‘unalived themselves’ and other verbal gymnastics or they are demonetized. But abusing kids is fine.
Just depends on how much money YT get's from them.....
Can you please observe her "apology" video she just posted? I. Am. Floored.
I need him to tbh
I can totally understand lack of forethought and all that, but even if Colleen's intentions weren't to be creepy, it doesn't change the fact that she used the power she had in her situation to take advantage of people (namely minors). In your first video I was wondering "hmm as a young person, if I was in Colleen's position, would I have had enough maturity to realize that the things she was doing was wrong? After all, it's easy to be blind sighted when you're having fun." But even the first story in this video is just straight up creepy? I get that the Miranda character is supposed to be weird and quirky and all that, and I get that what was acceptable humor at the time was different, but letting any girl (or even woman) go up on stage and forcibly spreading her legs while making fun of her (without asking for any consent for the sake of a skit) is more than lack of forethought and rather a reflection of morals.
To completely juxtapose Colleen's actions, a kpop artist Jackson Wang (I'm not even a fan, but I saw some clips of his concerts) specifically asked fans if they were over 18, ok with going on stage, AND if they were single before bringing them on stage to dance a somewhat erotic (but still appropriate) dance in front of them. He did that all in the heat of the moment in the middle of his concert. Most of the time, youtuber giveaways or any giveaway at all require you to be at least 18 or to have guardian consent. Colleen's actions weren't immature and dumb like she said, but they were more so abusive and predatory. Even if it wasn't her intention, that's straight up what it was, and I wouldn't consider any apology she makes genuine unless she acknowledges that.
It doesn’t really matter if she intended to sexualize them or if it was an accident (her intentions are clear, but-)
Even if we assume the best intentions, she put teenagers in the position to be sexualized and hurt by other adults just by encouraging them to dress inappropriately. She put children at risk of other adults just by exposing them to those concepts. She caused harm regardless of her intention!!
But let’s be real, what kind of adult speaks like that to/about a bunch of kids?
And that's the tea. It wouldn't matter if these victims had begged for the sexually inappropriate interactions. Colleen was still a very powerful individual who used her position to coerce these kids to sexualise themselves for gratification.
It wouldn't make a difference had Adam actually initiated the underwear exchange, nor would it have been acceptable if Becky asked to be touched and exposed. They're still kids being manipulated by power dynamics to do things that aren't safe.
Thank you for covering this ❤ it’s really important that professionals like yourself cover this case. We all know how she acted and behaved was wrong and this cannot be swept under the rug. Women can be predators too.
Im still shook that she literally had a no pooping rule on the bus, so Johnny would have to wait until they got to where they were going, since everyone else got hotel rooms, and he only had the bus.
I have IBS-M, So if i dont go right when i need to go, ill then get backed up and not go for *weeks*
Having that rule when someones only option is the bus or a mcdonalds when they stop, honestly sounds like torture to me. My body wouldve freaked tf out dude, i cannot just wait to go until someone tells me its ok. Thats not how my body works, i could never🤷♀️
Right!? I literally can't hold it. I'm either going in the toilet on that bus or we all get to deal with poop pants 😂
@Cove_Blue yeah, whenever I need to go and I can't for whatever reason, it legit just like shuts down my system, I literally won't go for over 2 weeks, last time it was almost 3. I don't speak up for myself though, so as much as I'd like to say I wouldn't allow it, I know I would and I'd just take the constipation. 🤣🤷♀️
@@AKbaby89 I've been there. It is ROUGH lol
Just being able to go to the bathroom when you need to should be a human right. I left a job for that reason.
Johnny is a complete liar swoop has made a whole video on how he lied about everything
If its a tiktok video the cuts aren't necessarily edits. On tiktok alot of stop starts is a technic that tiktok encourages and you get more views...not sure why. But the algorithm there boosts such videos alot. So you pause then start then pause then start as you talk. Weird but it works on there. Countless videos like that especially when someone is talking.
Logan, I'm sincerely happy I've subscribed to your channel and I love how you break down the different expressions and body language gestures and I had a blast the moment I kept watching 1 video after another and you strike to me as an individual who's wayyy past cool 💙
Gonna say it plain and say it loud for those in the back:
**There is a difference between conceptual knowledge and informed understanding!**
Anyone claiming a teenager knew what they were doing or getting themselves into is enabling child abuse are actively victim blaming.
Second note: Two outlier incidents are coincidental. Several incidents are not.
Heck, to do this with adults would still be an absolute trampling of several ethical boundaries. People can't reasonably consent to interactions like this with someone who wields power and influence over them, period.
This aged like milk 👀 21:20
When you say that youre seeing her hesitate when shes talking about that clip and what she was wearing, it literally breaks my heart. We all know that hesitation comes from trauma. That child was traumatized. In front of thousands, then millions.
Fuck i really hate seeing the ways colleen has messed up all these people. Theyre all traumatized. Its really sad
Im neurodivergent, and id love to see what the body language is like with neurodivergent ppl compared to neurotypical. Cuz im always moving, even if i dont look like im moving, ill be moving all my muscles and my toes n all that. I also have pretty bad social anxiety, so eye contact n stuff like that are not things i partake in.
I think they both did a good job explaining everything that happened. It seemed to me that Johnny was uncomfortable or unsure if he qualified to use certain terminology. I noticed he tried taking responsibility for his part in things which tells me he's very trustworthy but it also tells me he's not fully realized how wrong this dynamic was...he was a minor. They both are still very young and when you are young, it's odd how you can't articulate at that moment what is happening and how you feel. I still can't at my age, lol...not as well as they did. I'm so proud they are both speaking up.
Something I noticed about Becky is that she talked with her hands at chest level. With the way she did, I felt very distracted but I'm also aware that is something that is done when people are trying to really sell a point. Not that I"m saying that's what she did..I just had to work harder at paying attention. Everything matched, I just thought it was interesting how I felt kind of hypnotized watching her hands whereas when Johnny talked, it more flowed with the rest of his body. Maybe it was her awesome nails or I'm tired, who knows. Thanks!
@Observe Have you seen the Swoop documentary about Johnny? Turns out that Johnny hasn't been honest with the majority of what he has been saying...
How are kids allowed to watch her at this point!....these young kids can watch a video...how she got her dog and cat killed!!....plus all the sexual stuff!....my niece and nephew are not allowed to watch her!!!
What did she do to her dog and cat? (Sorry still learning all this, never been a Miranda fan so I’m behind) either way, poor animals 😢
She didn't get a cat killed just a dog
@@witchypeoniflorallungs3044 as a child she was mean to the family dog and the dog bit her in the face as defense, Miranda had to go to the hospital and lied to her mom and said "I wasn't doing anything the dog just suddenly bit me" and the hospital said that they have to put down the dog. dog got put down because miranda lied so basically she killed a dog.
don't know anything about a cat tho.
She filmed someone else's cat that had been hit by a car I believe, and I think that's how the owner found out. Also she trapped her cat in a brown paper bag for some reason.
She made a 'hatchimole' by trapping a cat in a paper bag and waiting for it to chew it's way out. She also filmed a dead cat whose 'missing' poster she'd seen and was laughing about it. And just generally enjoyed ignoring very clear signals from her cats that they were uncomfortable in order to make content. I think that's the main ones...
Thank you very much for covering the victim's non-verbal communication, and as always, thank you for covering this project and topic. 32:43 You are absolutely right about the fact that even though there's a way that a person or influencer can be manipulative (my words) by seemingly endless love-bombing someone who is 1. Underage 2. A Fan who thinks this IS a life-changing opportunity and 34:41 as it should feel that way because this particular influencer - Colleen - that was one of many of her whole manipulation tactics (Love-Bombing the abused while enabling her own and others on her inside team's behavior towards 3. A minor or minors. This part has had me outraged with her entire content for years. I will touch on that now.
So, IMHO, she shouldn't be coming forward now with her little ukulele song, a "So-called Apology", which is not an apology at all; instead, it's discrediting her actions and behavior towards people like these two victims, along with Adam McEntire, trying to make sure that anyone and everyone waiting for an apology, or response period, basically just got a smack in the face with her song (🎵 Manipulation Gossip Train 🎵). 34:41
As a mother, I wouldn't allow my 13-year-old daughter to watch her, because the video my daughter was watching at first made me think that this Miranda Sings persona was not a PG-13 type of channel, and instead it was making fun of someone with a speech impediment, (bullying) and very inappropriate things being said to the audience, being a child of any age. I asked my daughter, "What is this video about?" Abd she answered "Mama, it's Miranda Sings, and she's not singing. She's sucking on a hotdog with ketchup and laughing about it. " I was to the least disgusted at this video, and my daughter asked me why she would be doing that at all with hotdogs, dangling it, and laughingly explaining " how much she liked ketchup on her wieners", (Colleen's words) , and how much she "loved ketchup" or why she was laughing about it. At 13, my daughter was not aware of sexual enuendos or oral sex. As a matter of fact, my daughters face said it all. My poor daughter was red in the face and looking down instead of steadily looking at me because of how this one video made her feel. At this point, I told her that there was no reason for her to feel the need ro look away, as she could talk to me about anything, and that I wasn't mad at her and she wasn't in trouble for watching this video. My daughter asked if the videos were supposed to truly be for children, and I told her that even though she wasn't a small child, this type of content couldn't possibly be made or meant for A CHILD OF ANY AGE. My daughter told me that it had made her uncomfortable and confused, and I made sure my daughter never watched her again. My daughter is grown into a young woman now, and I'm a grandmother. I haven't spoken with my daughter about this situation lately, as she has a 5 year old and a 2 year old (both girls) other than the fact that back in 2020 when the apology from Colleen was put out on RUclips, discrediting Adam, even at that age, 3 years ago, my daughter sent me the link to a reaction video of Adam and Colleen's videos, and she told me "Mama as a mother myself, I knew something like this would end up happening that day I stopped watching her".
I thank God that my daughter knew at a young age that women could be and have predatory and inappropriate behavior, and decided on her own to not watch this woman's channels and content. I had to have many talks with my daughter once she watched that video. She got bullied by her "friends" at school because of not supporting Miranda Sings by watching her channel anymore. This congjniedfir over 2 years. I switched my daughters' schools, and she ended up winning a full ride nursing scholarship from writing an essay on a true story, what she had gone through by being bullied and learning how much it was important for students not to bully one another. She also touched on psychological effects from bullying and how she wanted to be able to help people who had been bullied or were being bullied because she had experience, and it was ne er okay. She included statistics of suicide attempts and actual attempts that were final. Once she read all of this and my happy mom heart cried, I realized that as a sophomore, my daughter was incredibly smart, and I had done a great job raising her and teaching ber the difference between right and wrong. In her senior year, we got an invitation to an event where my daughter was to give a speech for an essay she had written, at a huge banquet, and we had no idea which essay or what year the essay was given, and my daughter was nervous about it. We found out when we went that it was for the anti-bullying essay that resulted from this horrendous experience in her life. My daughter won first place, and it was very hard for her to read the same essay in a room of thousands of people in Montgomery, Alabama, including the governor. I was there for her. She won first place and I couldn't have been happier.
My question is, why would a parent allow their children to watch this character? Engage with her online in private messages and group chats? Most importantly, Colleen's Ballinger, if she was a male, with all these allegations, she would already be processed in the system. How can we, as a people, as parents, agree that what she has done is right? Nothing that she has done has been appropriate or PG-13. She has traumatized many people, and there are so many victims. This has to be stopped. She shouldn't be on tour. Her ukulele song is discrediting victims who have been traumatized and manipulated and groomed. We all need to deplatform her and keep the same energy as if she were a male. Instead, we still have mothers bringing their children to be humiliated and scarred for life by this monster. This woman is dangerous. She truly thinks she is innocent.
Sorry for the long comment, I just had to say what I had to say, and most importantly, say thank you for being the voice of non-verbal communication and just speaking out on this. Many RUclips took WEEKS to make videos or speak out regarding her disgusting and inappropriate behavior.
I love your content. Please don't ever stop what you are doing. You make things so much easier to understand, and you teach us as an audience. I was one of your first supporters, and I will ve always.
The one guy I think the second victim you covered kinda seems like he said he thought he was getting an authentic experience. And pointing out how similar his experiences where to Adams. I think he’s still processing how
Performative everything actually was and understandably is hurt by it.
This woman sounds like a piece. Its disgusting how she encouraged minors to dress inappropriately for the amusement of the masses. It saddens me to hear Johnny's experience and how he was treated as an employee. Tells a lot about this woman. She has no business being around minors if she is going to behave this way around them and exploit them. I think as a society right now we have too much of this bully worship. It's everywhere in the media and in the schools and it's really sad how no one stands up for the person wronged by these bullies. I really appreciate Johnny's message at the end about loving yourself and your family more. Its people like this that is what is so wrong with society. Anyways as always another great video.
The cuts aren’t really cuts, the way the video is recorded is that she presses the record button and then stops whenever she wants and then continues whenever she wants. She didn’t film a whole thing and then edit our parts
haven’t finished the video yet but thanks for your content !
Please cover her apology video! I’d love to know your thoughts on her victim blaming song
She's becoming a case study at this point
Can you please do a video on her bizarre ukulele response video?
I can’t really call it an apology video, since the only sorry she gave was that she wasn’t going to make a video saying sorry.
Thanks for your content man!really love your channel! Your professionamism is great!🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉❤❤❤❤❤
Hearing Johnny being called sincere after watching SWOOP's documentary on him proves to me that this body language reading (pseudo)science is not a useful method to find liars lmao The reader relies heavily in their first impressions and biases to make a judgement about the meaning of body expression
I think he accurately identified Johnny’s movements and expressions, but the anxiety and defensiveness were attributed to benign motives. He also said “if [Johnny] is telling the truth.” There is some value in being able to identify gestures and expressions, so long as one is careful not to assume too much about motivations
@@MiraArrr So you agree with my point
God i cant waitfor your video reviewing her new video today!!!
Please, please make a video about her latest “apology” video. I want your professional opinion not just on how ridiculous it is, but how obvious her anger is. She’s fuming but singing like it’s a small world or something. It’s insane
A couple years ago, I bought my oldest tickets to Miranda Sings because they were a fan. I saw a couple clips and thought it was silly kids stuff, but I am so glad I was sick the day of the show, and we didn't end up going. I was wondering why the tickets were so reasonably priced to be honest.
At least you were going to go with your child .
Thank you for continuing to cover this!
The new video will be a hell of a time to analyze, can't wait for the insights to the absolute shitshow of body language
So excited for the next colleen video..
That intro music just makes my day!
You are going to have to turn right back around and make another one at this point. Geez, give the man a break 😂😂 thanks for the uploads 🎉
She responded today. I’m hoping you’re up for the challenge. I’d love to see your thoughts…
She performs her address in song / spoken word and plays ukulele.🤦🏽♀️ I thought to myself, “did she use this approach in an attempt to thwart the scrutiny of Observe?”🙃 In any case, it is convoluted. DARVO woven throughout as well.
COLLEEN JUST RESPONDED AND IT'S SO BAD I JUST WANNA SEE HIM WATCH IT BECAUSE ANYONE CAN TELL SHE ISN'T BEING GENUINE! It's so bad it's funny. 😂
I’d really like you see you cover the H3 podcast with two of the victims and Johnny, seriously
PLEASE do a video on Colleen’s response. My jaw was on the floor for the whole video.
As I was watching this, she posted that horrible ukulele session. I'm speechless.
The growth and maturity of this channel is so awesome… I’m so happy to be here for it
PLEASE do a video analysis of her non apology response song 🫣🙄😐
I cannot wait for your analysis of her new “music video” - this whole situation is insane
Logan, you are the most fascinating person on RUclips. THANK you so much for what you do. Your videos are fun, educational, and eye opening. I don’t know how you balance it. Again, thank you for your content. Keep bringing it.
Haven’t watched it yet but i never ever thought I’d see Miranda sings on one of these videos
She just did an "apology" video where she didn't take anything seriously and basically gaslighted the entire time. Like definition of gaslighting. And I don't use that word lightly because I think it's thrown around a lot.
Hey Logan, just wanted to leave some appreciation here. I'm happy to see you upload frequently again! I've been following your videos for three years now and have come to really love nonverbal communication due to your insightful analyses.
Keep up the great work and all the best from Germany! 😊
Yoooo jer body language in her little ukulele catastrophe looked so angry, I'm very curious about an analysis of that video
If only you waited five hours😭
Excellent video again! Thank you for helping this situation get more visibility. There's so much that seems to be wrong with that whole family, I really hope this helps people to understand the dynamics of these parasocial relationships and the abuse that can and does occur within them.
Why do girl's like you not know how it works 😲
With the guy in the 2nd video, I will note, I'm neurodivergent, autistic and have adhd and with processing and using filler words as well as fidgeting, I do a craapton of that to help regulate my own nervousness and anxiety, he honestly could be stimming.
Idk if hes neurodivergent or not but a lot of his behaviors honestly seem similar to mine in any given conversation i have with people especially ones where im anxious, having trouble focusing or just feeling a lot more vulnerable than usual.
I wonder if there is a way to discern who might be neurodivergent and not before going into body language reads, i imagine i come off like a shady sociopath if someone was to try and do a read on me just based off of body language, for how much i fidget and avoid eye contact alone.
High functioning autistics do exist but unfortunately we're often swept under the rug or even devlaued and told by neurotypicals that we're faking it when we are doing our best to meet their own energy at our own cost.
His fidgeting looks a lot like stimming to me and the "umms" remind me of issues and delays with processing, as well as the repeated words. He may just be overstimulated or having anxiety while recording the video.
But that was just an after thought after seeing his behavior on the video.
My grandmother always said “anything before the word but is null and void”
The cuts might be that you have to make such short videos on tiktok, so you have to cut a lot to get everything important in the video.
Oh, that's a good point.
Never heard of her. Both were so articulate, sincere, and sensible about wrong/bad behavior!
Watching Johnny’s video back now, I can totally see how he is bullshitting the whole time,
17:08 period!!!!
THIS is the violation that Colleen tries to dismiss as "a fart joke."
😡
You need to talk to Adam McIntyre the original victim, the underwear video was edited! She was lying throughout that joke of an apology.
Thxs for doing another video on this topic. It’s one crazy ride. I feel u came at it with a lot of respect💕.
Logan, this was awesome! You were able to articulate your thoughts with more detail than other videos. Great to see how your mind processes all of the different stimuli to provide an analysis.
I hope you didn’t take this the wrong way, I just wanted to let you know the more I see you the more I realized how attractive you are it’s actually overwhelmed lol and to add to that I’ve only been “attracted” maybe 3-4 times in my entire life and that’s a fact you would be the 3rd and if there was a 4th I dont remove who? I’m also 41 years old and I’ve saw MANY people in my lifetime again I hope you take this as a respect complement ☺️
I'm on the asexual spectrum and I feel the same way! There's just so much about him: his heart, his passion, his intelligence, his style... He's so gorgeous. 🥰 I understand it feeling a little overwhelming, too. I don't think he'd take it poorly-you were very sweet in how you said it. And you're right! ❤
I think there is room for influencers and people with an audience to have affection and friendLY feelings for their followers/audience, but everyone needs to understand that it's a parasocial dynamic. I believe healthy parasocial dynamics CAN be built and maintained, but not everybody can do that. And more importantly, many would rather take advantage of an UNhealthy parasocial relationship, as we've seen so many times.
I think a good test for it is asking yourself if you found out this person you follow and like did something bad could you easily walk away and not continue supporting them? The answer should be yes.
Once you talk to a fan in your personal life that's not parasocial. Parasocial means like how we can feel like we 'know' the people whose content we watch but they have no idea that we as an individual exist. It's a power dynamic and generally stars should avoid befriending their fans because of that. When it comes to kids it's a whole norther level for me 😔
I think it's fine with ADULTS. I don't care what a influencer does with their adult fans. The second you start talking to kids is crossing the line.
@@FukaiKokoro adults can still be coerced and abused using power dynamics. That's why it's literally top of the ethical code for pretty much any professional field to not engage with clients in a personal means beyond what is absolutely essential for the service being provided. The same goes for influencers interacting with their audience.
Please do another Colleen Ballinger body language analysis on her “fall vlog” video, specifically on her 3 minute intro “apology”
Her new “acknowledgement” video dropped and it’s 😬😬😬
Cannot wait for you to respond to Colleen’s “apology” video 😳
Can you please do a video of an body analysis with collagen “apology” video
Please, please, PLEASEEEEE analyze her latest “singing” response/ apology!!
I’m gonna be honest, growing up watching RUclips and now making my own videos, I like to do a lot of cuts to delete the blank space where I’m saying uhhh…. Um….. but…. So it could just be that she’s cutting out dead air
Same! I say uh, um and leave long pauses way too often so I spend a lot of time editing them out. So my cuts never mean anything other than I don't want to bore or annoy people. 🤷🏼♀️
