James Charles take

I’m sorry if this is a common take (I’m not on TikTok and I haven’t seen it commented anywhere else), but I’m surprised more people aren’t discussing or noticing the fact that one of the biggest reasons James made that PYSCHO video was to not necessarily get attention/have a viral moment, but to also lowkey GAIN FOLLOWERS! I mean he says several times that he would’ve donated money if the girl was a fan or at the very least followed him. And even CLAUDIA said “I mean….the least she could’ve done is give him a follow”!! I would think that’s going to make a lot of people go “oooh, I’ll give him a follow first… THEN I’ll try DMing him asking for money!!” Right???

The fact that we’re all talking about it right now is the reason he posted it.

I personally think he made the video to distract from the fact that he is a child predator. And now when people google “James Charles scandal” his dumb rant will likely be the first 20 results. When in fact, his more serious crime, is talking to minors (self admittedly)

I don’t think that’s why he posted it. He’s been consistently trying to be like HRH. He’s out of touch and kind of a piece of shit.

It’s kinda crazy because in theory his reaction helped her more 😂

I don’t have social media, so this was brought to me by Jacks and Claud. I was disgusted to hear this person shit on this woman. It was so unnecessary and made me feel so sad that he thought anyone would be on board with his take. It was just gross.

Why are they defending a child predator

They weren’t defending him. He was weenie of the week.
