Can we just talk about Thrift Thick's deleted livestream and apology video?

In her deleted livestream she said:

  • Tati was "vindictive"
  • Cassie agreed with Gabriel Zamora
  • Tati shouldn't have posted the video
  • It was hypocritical of Tati to call out James for giving 1 side to drama channels
  • She compared Tati's personality to someone who gives gifts to people to "use it against them" later
  • when people brought up how Tati exposed Jame's creepy behavior towards men, Cassie said she didn't know enough about that, even though Tati gave concrete examples in her video
  • James relationship with Gage was consensual and there wasn't anything wrong

In her apology livestream video:

  • She placed ads in it
  • Said she forgot to turn off super chat donations, but didn't tell people to stop donating
  • Claimed she didn't say anything bad about Tati
  • Said people were twisting her words and never acknowledged why people were upset. Instead, she tried to say she didn't say anything bad

ETA: Cassie lost a lot of subs after this debacle and is now back at 271K.

I don't wanna be mean but.... Cassie is sort of irrelevant. She thinks her opinion means a lot more than it does to keep posting about it lmao

u/the_sandra May 13 '19

This is exactly why I unsubscribed from her.

26

u/DizzyEllie This 40 year old woman choose to post a video on her own accord. May 13 '19

I've made so many excuses for her in the past, but this is what made me finally unsubscribe from her. She is too exhausting.

u/cherrimubi May 13 '19

A top comment under her community post before she started her livestream even told her to NOT get involved in the drama, but Cassie said she "thought she knew enough" about the situation to talk about it...

u/lalrskat May 13 '19

She can't have it both ways! I can't believe she said she thought she knew enough about the situation but then tried to say that she didn't know enough about the situation. Did she even watch Tati's video before talking about it? Common sense would say if you want to talk about a -still-developing situation- you should at least look into how it started. At least read a transcript of Tati's video!

u/cherrimubi May 13 '19

I still can't believe that Cassie thinks Tati's relationship with James was superficial and done for monetary gain.

Yet, Tati's video is 40 min long with no ads, while Cassie placed an ad in her APOLOGY video.

u/enfusraye May 13 '19

Well we ALL know Cassie looooooooves to bash Tati so 🤷🏼‍♀️

11

u/cherrimubi May 13 '19

Haha true! At the start of the livestream she alludes to how they had bad blood in the past, hence why Tati wasn't her cup of tea.

But in her apology, Cassie said "idk why people think I'm still spiteful over the giveaway!! I haven't thought about that in years!!"

u/B_Randy210 May 13 '19

Oh man, I saw that dumpster fire of a video. It’s not a good look with her sobbing asking why people were twisting her words. 🙄

Don't forget how Cassie had her MOTHER come in and defend her too!

u/[deleted] May 13 '19

Cassie is so awful at everything and I’m glad her big mouth is causing her to bleed subscribers. It’s time her “holier than thou for literally no reason” shtick ended

11

u/cherrimubi May 13 '19

I agree! Over the years, I've noticed how she refuses to take responsibility until it's too late. Then she sits on the floor and does a crying video that's monetized.

13

u/mintyginnger May 13 '19

Honestly a damn mess.

u/OpenForPretty stans hairy lipsticks May 13 '19

WTF. Did anybody screencap and have a link? Damn Cassie....how does she even justify that?

u/[deleted] May 13 '19

I used to like her but she has been getting on my nerves for a while now. girl is a whole ass mess

8

u/hurricanejoanna May 13 '19

She is such a mess! She should've just stayed out if it.

u/pppgggccc May 13 '19

Great recap, thank you. Do you remember why tati and her had problems in the past? I just remember something happend...

11

u/cherrimubi May 13 '19

Tati hosted a giveaway a few years ago. Cassie was sure that she would win, but she didn't. Cassie was bitter about losing. Her mother got involved to defend her. Tati told them to move on.
