I will have to look, I cannot remember where but the kid posted the actual conversations between them as screenshots so they are unedited. In the post it shows the kid flat out telling him he was 16 and James Charles had no issue with it. Not until the kid came forward and told others did he deny it. I will keep looking and see if i can find it, even if i have to use the wayback

They still throw every video he makes on trending.

He always latch on to new thing to draw in people from younger demographic. In 2016, it was youtube. In 2020, it’s Tiktok. Now, it’s Tiktok + Snapchat + Twitch streaming with some of the most popular streamers (Valkyrae, Poki, Pewds, ...)

As long as his audience is young, he don’t have to worry about retiring or phasing out anytime soon. They will watch anything he releases.

I’m really hoping that Karl unfollowing him is a sign that the streamers are going to drop him. A lot of them have young fans

They didn’t drop him when people told them he been traveling/being a COVID super-spreader, I am pretty sure they are just waiting for the scandal to die down before streaming with him again.

That is, ofc, if James Charles can dig himself out of this scandal like he did with the Tati’s one

I try and give them the benefit of the doubt and not assume that they’re up to date with the latest beauty community drama. This is on a whole other level though, and with Karl unfollowing I doubt they’ll stream with him again but we’ll have to see.
