One of my WORST FEARS is someone taking a humiliating picture of me that goes viral

[myharu]

Same. I try to be super inconspicuous in public now

[teetersslow]

i hate memes that are just strangers on the street who got their photo taken. so invasive. if you personally upload a photo of yourself than that's on you, but these ppl did not consent.

[annie_oakley]

That’s why I hate websites like “people of Walmart” or whatever. There are too many poor people with mental health issues or disabilities being used for a cheap laugh.

[xellabelle]

Idk with viral memes they’re famous for a few months and get exploited by people wanting to rep them and make money off them and then fade into oblivion

[drblind]

yeah idk why this woman needs "a team of people" like... do your own shit sis that's money you could be keeping lmao

[puramierda]

this hustle culture, do everything yourself!! mentality is so dumb and it's going to lead ppl to get into shit they could have easily avoided lmao. like yeah, obviously don't get bloated with hangerons who want to make a buck off you (i remember wayyy back reading that even tho oprah has ppl who handle her finances she ultimately always signed her own checks)

but if she's appearing in commercials and tv shows that means she's signing contracts and unless she has a background as an entertainment lawyer uh she 100% needs someone who makes sure she's not getting screwed. and when her hype is over and ppl stop throwing opportunites at her she's going to need a manager/agent to find those opportunities if she wants to keep going in that direction- which it sounds like she does if she wants to become a voice actress.

'do your own shit' i just- lmao ok. tl;dr yeah don't bog yourself down with a 20 person team that you pay to not do anything but also yes parlaying viral fame into an entertainment career requires a team.

Nikkietutorials (youtube MUA) is a good example of this, she had been working for years and her channel was successful but she ended up with a bs deal with TooFaced.

[frejasface]

DM’ed that person on Twitter in hopes that they would take it down. They instead tagged her.

Also, WOW, what an asshole

[hormones]

what do you mean 'in the video it's not really clear'?

she literally says, quote: "in hopes that he would take it down, 'cause i don't want to get fired".

[slinkydinks]

But she said she only typed "Hey that's me." She didn't say she asked him to take it down, just that he would get the hint. But yeah, figures a gay influencer would be oblivious assume she would want to be associated with it and tag her :P...

[dreamdate]

That’s messed up that the guy tagged her and that she was fired.

[maidenhell]

Her former employer sounds like an ass, tbh.

[lloyd_llewellyn]

tbh she kinda messed up herself by bringing it to her boss's attention with all the explicit captions. i'm sure her boss had no idea what was happening.

[littlebones]

i guess she figured it would have been worse if her boss found out about it on his own and brought it to her

[shinagara]

good for her for making the most of the situation. i find her v. funny and charming on YouTube, i hope she's not secretly problematic or anything!

[surfermedley]

Other than claiming that her use of AAVE Isn’t appropriation because it’s part of “Stan twitter/Stan culture”, she’s ok.

[teenxwolf]

she was also posting hot takes about defunding the police that were full of misinformation and she had to take several seats but she took them gracefully

[trekkiepetrelli]

she's hilarious on tiktok and very body positive (shuts down a lot of troll guys)
