00:00:00.120 Hello, classic crew, and welcome to today's episode of The Scoop.
00:00:07.060 If you are new to my channel, The Scoop is our opportunity to act as if we're grabbing
00:00:10.800 a cup of coffee together, have a chat, go over what went on over the course of the week,
00:00:15.460 and just have a conversation.
00:00:17.480 So I love hearing what you guys have been up to in the comments, so make sure to leave
00:00:20.940 something down below.
00:00:22.200 Grab a cup of coffee or tea or lemonade or whatever it is that you're drinking, and let's
00:00:26.380 get into it.
00:00:26.960 So the first thing that I want to talk about today is another content creator here on
00:00:30.520 YouTube, and her name is Amanda Ensing.
00:00:33.280 So she has over a million subscribers, she is a beauty YouTuber, and she has done an incredible 0.73
00:00:39.700 job of building up her business, but she came out as conservative, and of course that isn't 0.92
00:00:46.780 allowed.
00:00:47.300 And ever since she did, she has been getting in hot water, but she came out as conservative,
00:00:52.500 and of course, people hated it.
00:00:54.500 As you guys know on my channel, it is something that we have to talk about constantly, is the
00:00:59.300 idea that conservatives are not allowed to speak up and say what we truly believe, which
00:01:04.800 is very clear for her, because just this week something pretty crazy happened.
00:01:10.100 So she had Sephora sponsoring one of her videos, which they looked at beforehand, and they saw
00:01:15.900 the content of.
00:01:16.960 And when some people started commenting on her videos that she was a conservative and
00:01:22.900 that they hated that she had voted for Trump, Sephora pulled her contract and tried to not
00:01:29.080 pay her for the work that she put into her video.
00:01:31.760 And she started a campaign that she called the Hashtag Boycott Sephora campaign, asking
00:01:36.440 conservatives not to go to Sephora for their makeup anymore, because Sephora does not care
00:01:41.020 about conservatives.
00:01:42.480 Now, I think this is a really cool movement.
00:01:44.820 I think she's doing a really important thing by shedding light on this kind of thing, and
00:01:48.840 it made me want to shed light on something that happened to me rather recently.
00:01:52.500 So I had a sponsorship.
00:01:54.280 I had a sponsorship lined up for six months.
00:01:57.300 I did one video, and I sent it to them.
00:01:59.260 They reviewed it.
00:01:59.980 They said it all looked fine.
00:02:01.180 I went ahead and posted it, and a few people wrote that company, said they didn't agree
00:02:06.080 with the content that I had posted, and the company pulled the sponsorship.
00:02:09.440 So I no longer am making money from that company because I am conservative.
00:02:14.740 And they were explicit in their email that it was because of my content and what I have
00:02:20.380 to say here on my channel.
00:02:21.900 Now, I had showed them the video beforehand, so they knew what they were getting into.
00:02:26.340 And I also know that this company sponsors other creators who have done other controversial
00:02:30.600 content on the other side.
00:02:32.440 So it seems like conservatives are being actively discriminated against, and Amanda
00:02:36.640 Nsingh is not alone.
00:02:38.480 So yes, you should boycott Sephora.
00:02:40.780 No, we should not stand for this kind of treatment.
00:02:43.440 No, conservatives should not be discriminated against for their beliefs.
00:02:47.040 And if you believe something on the other side, you shouldn't be discriminated against
00:02:50.120 either.
00:02:50.780 As creators, conservatives are losing money for being conservative and being openly conservative
00:02:56.460 because people on the left will contact those companies and tell them not to give us money.
00:03:00.980 So we are losing our income because of our views.
00:03:04.580 And it is disgusting, it's awful, and it's happening right now in front of our eyes.
00:03:08.520 It's happened to me.
00:03:09.160 It happened to Amanda Nsingh. 0.75
00:03:10.540 So this isn't just a one-off situation that happened with her.
00:03:13.020 It happened to me.
00:03:13.780 So this is something that is happening to all of us.
00:03:16.440 And it's really upsetting, and it's something that we should be fighting against.
00:03:20.660 And this is why I think it's so important for me as a creator to continue to speak up
00:03:25.180 about my views so that we aren't all silenced.
00:03:27.740 I'd love to know your thoughts in the comments below.
00:03:29.860 Let me know what you think.
00:03:30.780 So the next things that I want to talk about are just a bit more on the lighter side.
00:03:34.140 So we had a bunch of snow hit us in Virginia, and I know that that's been happening all
00:03:37.900 over the country in a lot of different places.
00:03:39.860 But we haven't had snow since early-ish December, I think.
00:03:43.980 And I have been so happy to have snow again because I love snow, and I love fresh snow.
00:03:51.740 And winter doesn't feel worth it unless there's snow.
00:03:55.380 This is my philosophy.
00:03:56.320 If it's going to be freezing cold, I really can't get behind it unless there's a reason,
00:04:00.960 and that reason is snow.
00:04:02.980 So when it's really cold and rainy or when it's just really cold and bitter, if it's
00:04:08.200 not snowing, I don't think it's worth it.
00:04:10.120 But it is beautiful when it snows.
00:04:12.020 And it is so fun and cozy and such a good opportunity to snuggle and drink hot chocolate.
00:04:17.040 And I've just been really enjoying the snowfall.
00:04:19.940 So it's been a nice way for my husband and I to kind of spend our time together inside
00:04:25.240 and snuggled up in blankets and watching movies and playing games.
00:04:28.480 So I love the snow.
00:04:29.960 I'd love to know what you guys think.
00:04:31.320 I know some people love snow.
00:04:32.480 I know other people don't care about the snow.
00:04:34.400 But I'd love to hear your thoughts in the comments.
00:04:36.680 Next thing I wanted to talk about was getting together with a girlfriend just for a girl's 0.99
00:04:40.200 night.
00:04:40.880 And it's something that I've been doing a little bit more frequently.
00:04:44.060 And it's been so nice.
00:04:45.940 And this is something I think a lot of married women lose out on is that they just don't 1.00
00:04:50.340 invest time to spend with their female friends on their own.
00:04:53.740 It is so important.
00:04:55.260 Married friends, single friends, it's a really good way to stay in touch with your single
00:04:58.280 friends is just to spend an evening out with them.
00:05:00.740 To go get dinner.
00:05:01.740 To come back and watch a movie.
00:05:03.220 To just enjoy each other's company.
00:05:04.720 Because spending time with your female friends is so important.
00:05:08.480 And it's such a nice way to have that community that can really support you.
00:05:13.940 And I just think it's a really nice thing.
00:05:16.160 So I got together with a girlfriend.
00:05:17.720 We dressed up.
00:05:18.420 We went out to dinner.
00:05:19.540 And we just kind of had a great time chatting and eating.
00:05:22.760 And then we came back to the house with the intention of watching a movie.
00:05:25.760 But ended up just talking even more.
00:05:27.840 So I am a huge proponent of women doing girls' nights or doing brunches and having time 0.87
00:05:33.460 with their friends and investing time in your female friendships.
00:05:36.800 Because that stuff really does pay dividends throughout your life.
00:05:40.160 And I think it's really important.
00:05:41.460 The last thing I wanted to talk about is just my hairstyle today.
00:05:45.220 So I am normally somebody who has my hair down in my videos.
00:05:48.640 But I was feeling a little bit lazy today.
00:05:50.600 And I didn't want to have to curl my whole hair situation.
00:05:53.320 So I just threw my hair up in a super high pony.
00:05:57.000 And then I wrapped it around and used a scrunchie to secure it.
00:06:00.140 And then I pulled out my bangs and just curled them.
00:06:02.940 And I love doing my hair like this.
00:06:04.740 It makes me feel really fancy.
00:06:05.960 But what's so funny is that it takes me so much less time than if I were to just curl my hair.
00:06:11.560 And this makes me feel, like, elegant and lovely.
00:06:15.380 And so that, I feel like, is a very good lesson for women.
00:06:17.680 That it doesn't have to take you forever to feel feminine and feel beautiful and embrace your womanhood.
00:06:23.620 So doing this beautiful kind of hairstyle that took me probably 5-10 minutes
00:06:29.600 is just an easy way to make yourself feel like a lady. 1.00
00:06:34.280 And you don't have to throw a bunch of time into that.
00:06:37.180 So even if you just throw your hair up in a bun and just curl the front layers of your hair,
00:06:42.540 you'll feel really beautiful and put together.
00:06:45.180 And it doesn't have to be a whole long process.
00:06:48.040 But that is it for today's video.
