Speaker 1 (00:12):
Okay, So let's go through some influencer drama that's happening
on TikTok that you would never know. So I've talked
about Michaela before. She probably has like fourteen million followers,
and she's a very well known makeup and beauty influencer,
very talented young woman who's printing money. So there's another
(00:35):
guy who's been doing a press round right now because
he has a makeup line that comes out. So the
way that celebrities go out and promote that they have
a new book, the makeup celebrity influencers go out and
promote that they have a new line. So Jeffries Star
is evidently a very controversial former YouTube star who doesn't
get paid by brands. That's sort of his calling card.
(00:59):
He doesn't get paid by brands to market their products,
but he markets his products a lot. And it's confusing
because he's marketing his products as if his products are perfect,
when he's just dissing everybody, not everybody else's he's diss
He loves Lady Gaga's products. He's team Selena, not team
Haley Bieber. It seems a little personal, but he's really
(01:20):
and he's thisssing the way she looks in the ad,
which I can't say that I agree with. Like he
said she looked dead, which I just I don't. I
can't say that I agree with that. Man he's, you know,
seems to be wealthy. He wants to throw like a
very expensive bag on the ground, like a Chanelle metal bag.
Like he's controversial, he wants to be disruptive and like that,
he'll throw a Chanelle metal bag on the ground. And
(01:42):
because he doesn't care, I don't, I don't. Maybe he
got all his money from doing YouTube videos, which is crazy.
Jeffree Star has an axe to grind with Mikayla. It's
like a frenemies type of thing, and it seems like
he's really aggravated that she's making so much money from
this kind of don't hate the player, hate the game business.
(02:04):
Like Jeffrey Star has a new line of beauty products
that he's marketing ad nauseum on TikTok, So he's marketing
his own stuff, so while Mikayla does collaborations and markets
her own stuff, which makes sense because guess what, everybody
loves Selena Gomez, but she's no dummy. She's marketing her
own stuff too via all these other disciples. So all
(02:25):
these young people have endeared themselves to Selena Gomez. She
invites them to her parties and invites them on influencer
free trips. Their young kids are excited by it, so
then they're her disciples, so they get they do all
the work for her. Jeffrey Starr is on his own
out pedaling his own products, but someone like Selena Gomez
is doing a similar thing, but he's very team her. Like.
(02:47):
It's very popularity contests, it's very almost mean girls overall
on this app. It's crazy, but I understand it because
Mikayla is out there being paid to market mascara when
she's wearing false eyelashes, and so then people don't believe
her and don't believe what she's saying about this Misscara
and I mean, but do we believe that every single
(03:08):
word of Jeffrees Starr's praising on his own products is true? Like?
Is it the best? You know, it's hard when you
have your own brand, which is why I haven't wanted
to do my own line because it's how do you
say something new in this space? I have fifty eye
shuttle pals that all do fairly the same thing. Like
(03:29):
I don't need them all, I have all this redundant shit.
It all does the same thing. How could I come
out with something and say something new? What would be
new to say? There are ten products that do the
exact same thing, off the top of my head, So
you know, it's fifty shades of bullshit. He's mad that
she's paid to say things she could say. She's mad
that he's not, you know, being paid because he's making
(03:51):
money off of saying things. Also, everybody's in the game.
Nobody's on TikTok, nobody, no, no housewife, no mom, no
you know, cheese eater, macaroon maker, button organizer, caviar peddler.
You know, nobody on there is on there out of
(04:12):
the goodness of their heart. They're on because it's like
they want engagement, they want followers, they want attention, they
want praise, they want to be in the game. So
it's fifty shades of bullshit to like, go dis somebody.
They're always like a cloud chase, So that's something it's said,
you're chasing cloud, you want views, you're going for clickbait.
What the fuck is everybody else doing. Everybody's on there
because it's a charitable act. Like it's just TikTok is
(04:36):
the land of bullshit. You know, people will be on
there and get mad at someone. There was this woman,
Lydia Millan. I didn't realize her mom is Karen Millan,
this designer, and Lydia like is on there, like, you know,
really we should have her on She needs to come on.
So she's on there with like the perfect life and
the perfect guten arrangement and I'm going to the country
(04:57):
side like and she's leaning into it because people obviously,
like on TikTok, people want you to be the caricature
of who you are. So every day she's wearing like
a floral dress and like spraying her fragrance of the day,
and come with me to go to the countryside because
the perfect paint color of my kitchen. Come with me
to go to I'm going to range Rover to pig.
(05:17):
You know, every day is like a different, very elitist act.
And so she posted that she was going to stay
at the Savoy because her water was off and she
was going there and it's two thousand a night, and
everyone was like really infuriated with her because there's a
housing crisis and she's talking about something that's a two
thousand dollars a night room. Shut the fuck up, everybody.
(05:39):
They are devouring her content of her going to buy
a range Rover, pick out her signature color, go buy
an airmes bag, like they're watching people doing halls and
buying channel bags and doing dire halls and the bespoke
like it's the land of the consuming shit that is
(06:00):
absolutely out of touch, expensive and like not good for
you. You cannot get mad at a girl who's telling you
that she's going to stay at a two thousand dollars
a night hotel when for the other three hundred and
sixty four nights she's been telling you about her caviar
laden Airmez driven range Rover filled life, Like, stop fucking
stop right now. So, Jeffree Starr, there's like a little
(06:24):
bit of like a battle between me and Mikayla just
annoys him, and it annoys him all these people getting paid,
but he's online selling his own eye shuttles. He's getting
paid too. It's just different. So don't hate the player,
hate the game. If you're on fucking TikTok in some
fucking circular reference roundabout way you're getting paid, you're still
getting paid. So Mikhayla's getting paid by Laurel Hawking Miscara
(06:49):
having fake eyelashes outraging everybody. That's one version. Somebody else
is hooking by it, saying shop now. Somebody else is
hooking by it saying Lincoln Bio. Someone else it's saying hashtag.
And Jeffree Starr is hooking because he's getting everyone to
like him and trust him, which they do and they
show because he's telling his truth about brands. And then
(07:09):
he's got him in the fucking store, so he's gonna
sell him some sparkly pink cotton candy eyes shadow. So
we're being sold to every which way, but Sunday, every day,
different ways from different people. So you gotta fucking pick
your poison and decide who you trust and who you don't.
But no one is there out of the goodness of
their heart. No one is there just because you know
they they just want to be there and they want
(07:31):
zero views. They want to just shout. Paul my fiance is.
He has an account that has four followers, his kids
and my Biggie and small as the dogs like and
he'll do this content which is hilarious, like hey guys,
and he's four followers. He's a private account, and that's funny,
but there are very few people that are on there
(07:52):
to get to get zero views, and I always get
on his account. I'm like first, I'm here early. It's
literally four people, so well, it's fifty shades of bullshit.
So just know that
Okay, So let's go through some influencer drama that's happening
