third triangle girl that's the trifecta the father the son and the holy spirit the whole
00:05:17.040
so markel's been in the game for a long time when did you really start seeing your like explosion on
00:05:23.760
tiktok when you first got started like when did you start feeling like i mean this might be like
00:05:28.160
turning into something um i remember the day it was actually november of 2020 i uh no excuse me uh
00:05:36.480
2019 um i did a video i went as a videographer for one of my friends and we went to myrtle beach
00:05:43.280
safari yeah and at the time i had like 30k on tiktok and the guy was like after we got done filming
00:05:49.440
everything he was like hey do you want to make a video and i was like well i'm not a creator i'm just
00:05:53.920
here with them he was like he was like it doesn't matter do you make one i was like he was like what
00:05:58.560
can you do and i was like i can dance yeah and he was like okay let's dance this man brought a live
00:06:06.160
cheetah into the house and casually sat it on the kitchen counter so at that point i was like i think
00:06:12.720
i did the renegade and then uh i did the woe and the cheetah got startled and it like sat up and
00:06:20.960
everybody thought the cheetah was gonna attack me so it got like 30 million views and i went from
00:06:26.160
30k to 500k overnight and i was like holy shit i feel like people like me yeah so i really felt uh
00:06:34.160
inclined to just start popping more puss on the uh timeline and uh from november i went to uh 900k in
00:06:43.360
december and then i'm like okay this is this is going to get something yeah so then uh i hit my first
00:06:49.840
million january 4th of 2020 and uh it was so crazy there because at the time i was working at subway
00:06:57.840
and god you would have thought i was a local celebrity people would just come on their lunch
00:07:01.440
break just to see me and stuff like that yeah and my little busy body ass i was a sub connoisseur
00:07:07.040
interesting fact if you guys didn't know i still literally remember how to make every sub
00:07:10.880
it's like you have to cut the sub bread as six inches um on an incline surface to make all the
00:07:16.800
lettuce and uh tomatoes and cucumbers lay flat it's a whole thing there's a whole science right 100 and
00:07:22.800
i it's like the people who look down upon us it's like chew you chew you but um yeah i was working at
00:07:29.520
subway at the time so then my customer service skills got really good because people started coming in
00:07:34.560

00:10:13.120
gosh that's so crazy i love that you remember every date and stuff too i'm like have to that's
00:10:19.120
like it's and it was crazy it's crazy how you like never really i think that this happens a lot with
00:10:25.920
creators too it's like we never planned on this happening yeah and then like when it does it feels
00:10:31.760
like it feels so not real until you like actually do something so like when you actually got to meet
00:10:37.760
them and like collab and stuff that was probably where you're like damn i think this is like kind of a
00:10:41.360
big deal 100 like this is like taking off for me and now you're like and also markel's being very
00:10:46.880
modest but he is an incredible dancer thank you he's like the dancer girl the dancer every i'm not
00:10:53.680
kidding every event i've ever seen markel at he's in the center of the dance floor every single time
00:10:58.000
when we're at vidcon i saw you in the snapchat lounge nobody's dancing but they're playing like some
00:11:05.760
really they're playing like some cute music and markel comes in and he's like can you play like
00:11:10.080
meg the stallion or something and then he plays it and then he's just dancing by himself go there
00:11:14.400
we're playing elevator music and it wasn't even elevator i need to elevate the like you need to
00:11:18.800
play music to elevate yeah elevate the vibes it was just giving and you did you started a whole you
00:11:25.360
started a whole frenzy right everyone started dancing and that's what i feel like i don't even
00:11:29.920
like go into it thinking like oh i'm gonna get this party lit i just hear music and i just i know
00:11:34.960
like that's what i'm saying that's like the the beautiful part about it it's not it's not anything
00:11:40.080
of like oh i want everyone to look at me it's literally just you love to dance right but i think
00:11:44.240
that's why people love you because they can see it they can feel that authenticity which is actually
00:11:49.760
what our topic is for today so with markel we're going to be talking about living as your most authentic
00:11:55.440
self online because also just a fun fact markel's one of the nicest people i've ever met and i know
00:12:01.600
you've been a creator for a long time so you know not all creators are nice i think honestly it would
00:12:05.920
shock you which ones are really nice like people who consume lots of social media right the people
00:12:11.440
that you would you wouldn't expect to be super super nice are i'm one of them like sometimes people
00:12:16.640
think i'm i'm like really mean in person but i'm like i'm just mean to terrible men hello that's the
00:12:21.680
only thing that's the only person i mean to and i like seek them out i actively look for them
00:12:26.000
period them on purpose she'd be low care and i think like uh someone like markel who has such
00:12:33.680
a large presence and is friends with lots of famous people um is so incredibly sweet and i love that
00:12:39.200
you're just like what you look like online is who you are in real life so that's like i think that's
00:12:44.000
why he had you've created such a like strong community of fans because they can tell i feel like
00:12:50.240
fans can really see if you're like a good person or not like whether or not they can tell in the
00:12:54.080
beginning but eventually it will come through whether or not you're a good person so markel is
00:12:59.440
wonderful and amazing and has built a platform off being authentic so that's what we're going to be
00:13:04.320
talking about today and for those of you who don't know or are new to the comment section what we do
00:13:08.240
here is we bring videos that i was tagged in that are applicable to our topic and then we laugh kiki
00:13:13.040
do all the different things about them period so for this first video i'm just going to describe it
00:13:18.960
to y'all this one is this video shows a pride day at a public school where all the teachers are
00:13:25.360
dressed in rainbow and there are rainbow decorations around the halls and the students are dressed in
00:13:29.280
colorful outfits which is sweet right we love we love to celebrate pride um the comments are not
00:13:36.160
but that's to be expected i feel like people are awful on the internet it emboldens people to be
00:13:40.720
awful i think because they get to be anonymous right so this first comment says
00:13:45.840
if that was me i would smack every teacher and student in the building
00:13:52.320
okay right okay and i'm hoping every teacher in person in the building smack your ass back
00:14:00.400
i feel like people get really bold online they do 100 yeah do you get a lot of hate
00:14:05.520
um or do you get hate at all um it depends on what i'm doing yeah but it's like never on my account if
00:14:12.320
i do something with somebody else like uh i went to the cma awards and i wore like this
00:14:18.000
like this not pencil skirt but it was like more of a skirt type thing with a cape oh love and omg
00:14:22.960
like everybody there it's so crazy because the people that they look up to and quote unquote tune
00:14:29.440
in to watch were the first ones to comment my outfit like all the countrymen that's what threw me
00:14:34.800
off they were literally like dude you look yeah like zach bryan luke homes everybody was like dude your
00:14:39.440
outfit is amazing like you're standing out and everybody in the comment section like the cma's
00:14:45.120
have posted uh a video of me walking the carpet and then all of these country low hicks like no
00:14:51.840
matter men girls all of them like who is this uh he she on the carpet like he has no purpose and then
00:14:58.880
been there like i had to turn off the tv for my kids and we usually watch this every year and that's
00:15:04.960
the first time like usually i laugh at it but that was the first time i literally somewhat let it get
00:15:10.560
to me because i'm like i'm not human right that part and i'm like not only did i do it and it's like
00:15:17.680
that's what part i had to like go back and sit on because i'm not only doing it for myself i'm doing it
00:15:22.800
to let others know they can be comfortable in their own skin because everybody else was like thank you for
00:15:28.480
doing this and like when i posted it they were like this was like the amazing outfit like it inspired
00:15:34.400
me to want to dress how i want to dress and stuff like that and at the cmt awards which is a huge
00:15:38.720
statement in itself is you being there and dressing how you want and feeling confident yeah and
00:15:44.480
representing an underrepresented group right at the cmt awards which is like it's so ironic too because
00:15:50.640
you're from the south yes so so the fact that they're talking to you as if you're like you don't
00:15:56.960
know anything about right and i'm like about the south or anything like that i probably know more
00:16:01.520
country music than they do that's what i'm saying they just think they are obligated or inclined to
00:16:06.320
tune in just because they're you know straight exactly i'm like get that out of here i remember my
00:16:13.440
first one of my first like really big carpets i ever did was billboard music awards i did it
00:16:19.440
did it in vegas and it was like i think last summer and i remember when i walked i wore something
00:16:24.880
that was a lot different um but i really loved it and i looked pretty so i didn't give a fuck
00:16:29.760
right um i did not know like because it was my first like huge carpet i'd never i think before
00:16:35.200
that i did like maybe two and they were like tiny little carpets but i didn't know how much they film
00:16:41.440
you and how much they take pictures and they take you they shoot you from all sides all angles and like
00:16:47.360
i've gotten a lot better dressing over like i didn't match my nails or anything like that i just was
00:16:52.000
like i like the pretty dress i had my hair and makeup done period right it's how i saw it and um
00:16:57.040
a lot of people really liked it but a lot of people fucking hated it um which is like that's
00:17:01.360
fine fashion is subjective whatever you want to wear that's fine but to see like so many people
00:17:07.680
give you an unsolicited opinion and they're like i would never wear that if i was like get an invite
00:17:12.800
first period that's my main thing that's like get invited your ass got so many opinions get invited
00:17:21.520
first and i was like you would have worn that and what were you doing hello i would have never worn
00:17:25.600
that babe you were you were a tank top going to the grocery store with your bald-headed ass with that
00:17:30.800
synthetic ass wig you need to get you a better life i'm like i love to read it basically i would
00:17:37.280
have worn that there babe you wouldn't have gone let's start there because you would be at home
00:17:42.800
right critiquing mine out my hello there you go thank you and it's funny too because i was
00:17:47.760
in some of the posts that i had posted well first of all i made several best dress lists so eat my ass
00:17:53.520
bitch come on like no you don't like it that's crazy because other people did like like actual
00:17:58.960
publications actually liked my outfit there's that and then also most of the pictures that i posted i was
00:18:04.880
like talking about walking as a someone woman because i i never got to see someone women walk
00:18:09.440
carpets like that right when i was growing up so it was mostly just like i was just excited and proud
00:18:14.240
like i got to walk as like a someone person and be representative in some capacity and then people
00:18:19.920
are saying shit like that i'm like bitch i'm not even talking about the outfit right but like okay it's
00:18:25.600
the internet obviously you're gonna get unsolicited opinions but it's just those comments of like i would
00:18:30.640
never wear that yeah okay well when you get invited to a really huge award show
00:18:35.360
then you can let me know yeah and i'll see what you would wear yeah then i'll critique what you
00:18:39.920
wore let's see your decorative garbage bag i'm like that and no that happened to me on my first carpet
00:18:47.600
i forget i think it was 2021 i went to the amas and girl first off i'm not i can dance my ass off i'm
00:18:54.960
like video form i'm good but as soon as it comes to a photo it's hard yeah it's a lot harder than people
00:19:01.280
think it was some comments why you look like a box you look like little bill i was like ah
00:19:06.320
shit you know when someone be right i'm like okay you ate me there bitch you ate me there you got me
00:19:12.400
a little right i'm like you gotta be there i'm gonna give you that one but i'm like like you said
00:19:16.240
they shoot you from all angles it's crazy but i've gotten so accustomed i've literally studied and
00:19:21.760
watched like these people who walked the carpet it was so funny uh loray was on the carpet they were
00:19:26.880
like loray turn over your right shoulder loray was like no my left shoulder is better so he like
00:19:32.240
he accommodates for himself but it's so uh i love intense when it's like when they're all yelling at
00:19:38.960
you so much happening period but you got to do what's best for you on at the end of the day
00:19:43.200
especially as a it's like that video of ariana grande when like she won't turn to her right
00:19:47.920
yeah it's her right side that she doesn't like but she likes her left uh-huh so they're like turn
00:19:51.360
to your left turn to your left and she's like no like super like real right real that's what it
00:19:57.920
takes now that i've done so many carpets i'm like it's so funny too because after it feels like high
00:20:02.960
school like after you get your gettys taken yeah everyone's sitting and waiting for whatever's going
00:20:07.600
on and you're looking for your getty yeah and you're like are people eating me up right are they
00:20:11.440
eating me up did i eat or did they eat me up girl it's like i'm like did i eat or am i getting eaten
00:20:17.840
exactly it's so hard to like uh the first few i walked like there was one of the i think it was
00:20:24.800
like the second carpet i ever did was like a movie premiere stupid movie and like um i was holding a
00:20:31.280
bag and i had a jacket on because i didn't know so like she um the girl that walked me down the
00:20:37.200
carpet was not my publicist but she didn't take it from me so i just like stood there with it
00:20:41.920
and the pictures came out cute but so many people were like why are you holding a bag why are you
00:20:46.000
holding a okay red carpet police hello i don't know girl because i don't know what the fuck i'm
00:20:50.880
doing did you want me to drop the bag and drop into immediate split i literally feel like that's
00:20:57.040
what they expect us to get out there new sometimes i do be want to bust a cartwheel out or a leg kick
00:21:01.440
yeah something right just give them a little extra flair right but i'm like bitch don't be trying
00:21:06.640
to critique my bag or my jacket and yeah i was like i you know why because a year ago i was a normal
00:21:12.240
fucking person right that's why i don't know red carpet etiquette like at all and even um i joke
00:21:18.400
about this with my creator friends all the time too because obviously there's like like some people
00:21:24.160
would consider us celebrities but like i always categorize myself as like a creator right or like
00:21:28.480
an influencer and then there's like actual celebrities so like when you walk with real
00:21:33.280
celebrities i always feel like they like don't give a fuck about you right so the photographers
00:21:39.040
are extra mean like they're like even more fed up with you okay can you go to the next spot yeah
00:21:44.240
they're okay next next right yeah or they don't even look at you like this trying to make sure they
00:21:49.040
got the last shot of the celebrity so you're standing there and they're like next person it's so
00:21:54.880
i joke about all the time how humbling it is when they're like oh no right right and you're like
00:22:01.600
oh okay yeah no that's totally fine i didn't want a picture right it's okay i didn't need one
00:22:06.880
i was like walking i'm like did you want to see my note card i have i was like i was actually looking
00:22:12.160
for the bathroom right right i don't know where it is i don't need a picture i don't even want one
00:22:18.080
to be honest pictures who even like those darn days videos 2023 i think it's like uh it's one
00:22:26.400
of those things where they invite us because we're important as far as like to get people to tune in
00:22:33.120
yes i really feel like that's a huge that's a huge reason why they invite us a lot of times we're
00:22:37.760
like why would they invite influencers because no one's going to tune in because no one watches live
00:22:41.600
television anymore so if they see us there they're going to like the the odds are they're going to tune
00:22:45.840
in yeah and but at the same time they know that we're not on like the meg the stallion level
00:22:51.280
so they treat us like that when we get there you would have thought we're
00:22:55.920
damn part of the public team as well that's what i said they made me park cars and then i got to walk
00:23:02.560
can you show these people to their seat yeah if i cleared a table then they let me get a getty
00:23:09.120
which is so humbling but that's a good thing i think right uh sometimes you need to be humbled a
00:23:14.240
little bit just a little when i walked certain premieres too like sometimes they'll just take
00:23:18.960
one pick and that's it just one yeah they're like one all right go ahead yeah they're like you can go
00:23:24.000
now right i'm like damn i'll send this movie yeah i was like i sat and glammed for four hours but
00:23:31.200
that's okay right right okay it's fine it's totally fine i didn't care i didn't want one anyway so it's
00:23:35.680
totally fine but who needs those nowadays okay back to this video so we're talking about the pride post
00:23:42.160
strict so this says no way my kid would be pulled out of this school do not push agendas on my
00:23:48.160
children i mean gay people exist no matter what hello whether or not your child is gay doesn't
00:23:56.800
erase gay people entirely i think when they're like oh you're pushing agendas on my child i'm like
00:24:04.000
there are so many other forms of indoctrination that they never acknowledge like
00:24:08.160
like heteronormativity is one for example like whether you identify as a boy or a girl and there's
00:24:13.440
no other genders like gender identity to be used by children it's like that's a form of indoctrination
00:24:21.040
because gender is not real gender is a man-made construction come on don't know if any of y'all know
00:24:26.080
that but i think celebrating it's like the acknowledgement of other communities and other
00:24:33.920
people does not erase you or your community and what the fuck you believe in yeah and it costs
00:24:40.080
you nothing really to just be nice to people who live differently than you and i'm like when your
00:24:45.840
kid woke up and said mom i gotta put on a colorful shirt this morning what the hell you thought he was
00:24:49.920
going to have a relay you think that they put on the rainbow and that turns them gay hello yeah they're
00:24:57.120
like you will not be partaking in that rainbow shit i don't understand i don't understand this
00:25:02.800
kind of like this weird policing of like what children are involved because like children
00:25:09.600
especially don't care right about whether or not people are gay like that is taught to them to hate
00:25:15.120
gay people that's something that's taught that's not something they're born with right they literally
00:25:19.040
are they learn that through your behaviors and in on the opposite side they learn acceptance and love
00:25:25.920
and empathy through the same behavior so it's like right and i feel like it's like such a proven
00:25:31.680
fact when they be trying to shelter them so much and like pull back and like you're not gonna do this
00:25:37.040
they be the main ones to turn out a booty bandit yeah thorn ass what allah just be i just tossing it
00:25:45.920
i'm like okay while he was trying to tell him toss a football he was getting a salad toss but
00:25:50.640
that's another story for another day it's always the it's always so ironic isn't it no literally
00:26:00.160
it's always so ironic it's like the people it's the same thing for like men who um it's not in the
00:26:09.840
same vein but it's in the same kind of neighborhood of like when men violently fat-shaping women
00:26:15.280
and then fat women have no problem getting laid bitch hello that that part i promise you that
00:26:22.400
like some of the most prominent famous successful men in the world love fat women and they and so men
00:26:29.200
who aren't aren't like that are like there's no way that's true come on it's the same it's the same
00:26:35.920
kind of like they fetishize and love in secret kind of thing right and that's because of the way society
00:26:42.720
treats fat people the way society treats gay people trans people like people have such
00:26:50.000
strange like it's almost like um a dedication to being awful they're like no to my dying breath
00:26:57.840
i'm not going to admit i'm not i am gay that i like fat women that i like trans women like it's just
00:27:05.280
it's they're never gonna oh they're taking it to their grave yeah which is so sad that's sad and
00:27:10.480
gross and you're like admit you're gay i'm like well damn you could have we would accept you
00:27:21.040
i think it's also it's just such a it's such a harmful rhetoric to push when uh gay people mind
00:27:29.120
their business right like they're just trying to live and exist peacefully and not be harassed or
00:27:34.080
threatened right or killed and so just to exist is a radical it's like existing and celebrating your
00:27:42.400
life is like so radical and agenda pushing to people like that did you hear about the guy and uh
00:27:49.360
i don't know where it was but this weekend he was listening to beyonce at the gas station and
00:27:53.360
just dancing the one who was voguing yes yeah and he got stabbed to death it's just it's awful it's so so
00:28:00.640
so awful i think his name was o'shea yeah beyonce had shouted him out on his uh i saw their instagram
00:28:06.640
i'm like yeah those men were booty bandits it's so it's so awful it's terrible how someone literally
00:28:15.520
living and existing and not bothering anybody can affect somebody's thought process in their life so
00:28:21.520
much no literally it's fucking it's horrible and people like that genuinely i fucking hate them
00:28:28.480
that part like he was not doing anything to y'all if y'all are that affected by just watching
00:28:33.920
something walk away i'm like how big was this lot i'm like if y'all needed something from the gas
00:28:39.280
station go in there and walk away yeah do what you have to do but you didn't have to like intervene
00:28:43.920
with what this man was doing yeah you acted like he was voguing all in your face i'm like i doubt that
00:28:49.280
was the case you yeah were the one who inserted yourself in a situation that had nothing to do with
00:28:53.680
yeah exactly and for no reason other than to feel powerful i don't even know to assert dominance i
00:29:00.480
don't know what the toxic masculinity do sub all that boogany shit yeah the the toxic masculinity thing
00:29:05.840
is it's really really bad like it affects and it affects everyone and i i just saw a video recently
00:29:14.080
of a guy saying like toxic masculinity doesn't exist there's just toxic people i'm all those are two
00:29:20.800
different things right like someone being taught in both categories but they are two different things
00:29:27.360
and the irony is that toxic masculinity that term was created by a man he was created by a man who
00:29:34.320
was raised by an extremely misogynistic and homophobic father and he was a militarized father like he was
00:29:41.520
of that and he raised him within such strict like almost like choking parameters like like what the
00:29:49.600
the patriarchy raises man within so he coined that term himself because he he discovered it as he
00:29:56.720
was raised and like as he reflects and stuff and then it was popularized through like therapy psychology
00:30:02.160
and all of that so i'm like the irony of a man saying it doesn't exist when it was created by a man
00:30:08.000
come on who was trying to explain like he was trying to find a reason for why he felt the way he did
00:30:12.880
like why am i so angry all the time why am i so hateful like why am i so mad at women all the time
00:30:18.560
right and it's literally because of that like he created the term because of that so i'm like that
00:30:23.760
so ironic that straight men are just the worst they're truly awful sometimes in that part they
00:30:31.360
really are okay this last comment says what the fuck is this shit do they do that for remembrance day
00:30:39.760
no so why should they do this for these people they did not die for us save us or anything
00:30:45.360
huh are you talking about war right that's different babe that's different what you want to
00:30:51.520
say right and what do you mean there are plenty of holidays that celebrate colonizers there are plenty
00:30:56.640
of them like remembrance day yeah columbus day exists president's day all of whom are colonizers
00:31:04.400
you know what i mean right what do you mean there are plenty fourth of july's independence day like
00:31:11.040
hello the list goes on yeah and then gay people are like i just want to celebrate
00:31:16.960
you know life and loving who i want and they're like oh what else here these bitches go again
00:31:24.400
here they go right here they go again trying to make another holiday you're like we already got
00:31:30.240
enough well then one more way going they ain't going to affect you well yeah just don't celebrate
00:31:35.120
it that part then just don't i'm like just like some people don't celebrate christmas you ain't got
00:31:46.720
okay i'm gonna move on to this next video okay this one is a woman who describes herself as a
00:31:52.400
relationship coach and she's talking to camera about how the barbie movie's
00:31:56.960
sole purpose is to brainwash women into hating men she says watching this film will deeply harm
00:32:03.040
your perception of relationships because all of the men in the movie are either stupid useless creepy or
00:32:09.440
evil um okay we we were at barbie we saw barbie right um what did you think of barbie
00:32:20.720
it was very interesting to me the part that i pulled from it was the men in there talking about
00:32:25.600
they were going to beat each other off i know a lot of people didn't pull that but i pulled out
00:32:31.200
and i was like wow that's it's kind of crazy but it was very informative to me like yeah i feel like
00:32:36.480
it was uplifting to women if anything and it was like it had a good message behind it yeah yeah for
00:32:43.680
men and women yeah and anyone else who doesn't identify as either but like even with well your your
00:32:50.000
point about what you pulled is also if you think about it it's also layered because straight
00:32:54.800
men tend to do very homoerotic things right but are also at the same time violently homophobic yeah
00:33:01.440
so like they do some things that are extremely homosexual and then they have the nerve to also
00:33:08.720
be homophobic i don't understand that part it was a perfect example of that uh i don't know the guy's
00:33:15.600
name but the basketball player who are who was caught on video humping his friend dry humping like the
00:33:21.520
legs were in the air like this and the basketball player was like pow pow pow and he was like the
00:33:27.520
video came out and he was like dog dog i'm not with that gay shit it was just us playing
00:33:31.520
girl what type of plan is that i'm like y'all grown and i'm like you're right and the guy who like
00:33:42.720
this he's like i'm like right and the guy it wasn't just like girl when i tell you they were putting in
00:33:49.600
words i was like he was like bro we was just we was just playing a big gay shit i'm like well i don't
00:33:56.880
know what type of plan y'all evolved in but what the hell is that that's not how i play with my
00:34:02.880
friends well we just play like a little volleyball a little bad man and some of those like playing
00:34:08.240
games but i'm like do y'all have like an active sign-up list because i want to play right like
00:34:14.880
hey man i think i mean is this a new sport i think i might be good at it hello like i would be
00:34:22.240
really good at it but i was like those are the moms who'd be the main ones that be so home and poplable
00:34:27.440
to do like homo shit like that i'm like make make up your mind do you want to be an ally or do you wanna
00:34:34.040
be a part of the group i'm blown away right did not see that oh girl you have but you know what's crazy
00:34:42.700
is my brother played well all the men in my family have played football my dad played in the nfl my
00:34:49.480
boyfriend played in college like my brother played in high school and my brother like was would talk
00:34:55.720
to us when he was like early on in high school and he would talk about like how the locker rooms
00:35:00.500
like they would do this like the humping what you're talking about like they do it all the time
00:35:05.820
and my brother was like okay well i mean not my vibes but like that's fine and then they would
00:35:11.780
also be really homophobic they'd be like well i'm not gay blah blah okay um sure and then when i
00:35:19.080
talked to my dad my dad goes oh yeah they do that all the time like all the way to the nfl they do
00:35:23.240
that yeah huh and then he's like you guys didn't do that in the locker room no no um no that we didn't
00:35:30.300
actually in case you were wondering no in fact that's so funny you ask because no even my even
00:35:35.860
my boyfriend was like yeah they always do stuff like that that's it's normal right okay
00:35:42.760
for sure for sure normal but then it's like it's like that's fine but then you can't be homophobic
00:35:50.060
like you gotta pick one come on you gotta pick one or the other either you're having either you're
00:35:55.580
playing around you're playing a humpy dumpy bump or you're homophobic like you gotta pick one i just
00:36:02.920
don't and and they they like what you said like they do it so like like seriously like viscerally
00:36:11.140
like i need to see as you're talking let me see if i can find this video just just visually show you
00:36:15.920
how they mean it they mean it girl i don't understand basketball players hump them
00:36:22.600
that's so yeah dude we're just playing so it's not real it's not we're just kidding we're literally
00:36:33.020
just kidding you guys don't kid you don't kid around with your friends you don't toot and boot
00:36:37.220
with your friends we do it all the time so it's like a normal thing it's something that's just what
00:36:43.840
guys do they kid what we do in the locker room just kid around so that's insane that's actually
00:36:51.460
insane that video was a lot worse than i thought and literally like full like boom boom boom i said
00:36:58.260
and he's in and he's in missionary yeah and he's going at it going to pound
00:37:03.180
i took a trip to pound town girl just left pound town all he knew his booty was brown
00:37:10.580
listen that's yeah that's it's the same it's the that exact that is much more more a violent version
00:37:19.520
of it but like that's like what my dad was talking about when he was like they do it all the time
00:37:24.180
like they just like go behind each other and like pretend to oh yeah even right after the shower just
00:37:30.980
in their towels yes like naked yeah they do it all the time naked like my boyfriend was like yeah
00:37:35.620
they'll just be naked and they'll just walk around and do that yeah try to slap each other sore fight
00:37:40.600
and all that but they're just kidding and they're not gay not not strong they're not gay i can't stress
00:37:49.440
that enough they are not n-o-t for those who didn't spell it not i yeah it's it's also and that's
00:37:58.400
exactly like what was in the barbie movie was like it it's like kind of that parallel to
00:38:03.320
they do these homoerotic things and then they get very mad when they because i think it's because
00:38:11.040
they align being gay with femininity and it's like something they're not allowed to touch and not
00:38:16.620
allowed to do and it's just like again another like restriction of the patriarchy like they just
00:38:21.920
that they live within but the barbie movie i loved the barbie movie thought it was great
00:38:26.520
um i thought it was amazing um i do think though that the reaction to it is to be expected like
00:38:33.300
when i finished watching it i was like the conservative like alt-right sides of every
00:38:40.240
social media platform media they're gonna hate that movie and it's true they did right i knew i left
00:38:45.900
with that knowledge i'm like they're probably gonna fucking hate that movie and that's how you know it
00:38:50.620
was good i loved the through the uh the like shunned upon ken yeah he started beating everybody
00:38:57.940
ass alec or whatever alan alan yeah but i said come through alan because he was an alley for the barbs
00:39:03.720
right he was for the barbs yeah the girls he was for the girls yes i said alan you are the it girl
00:39:09.760
i also think too that there's nothing wrong with a movie that embraces like femininity and the love
00:39:20.460
and warmth of women right there's nothing wrong with that but of course like you know this the alt-right
00:39:27.600
like extremely critical side of things they'll find a reason to demonize femininity or some sort of like
00:39:33.800
empowering movie and it's even empowering to men too because within the movie they talk about how
00:39:40.120
like he's like honestly i liked patriarchy because i thought it was mostly horses it turns out it's not
00:39:45.720
it's a bunch of other stuff that scares me and i don't like that like it turns out patriarchy also
00:39:50.500
hurts men like that's like what's in there but if you're an idiot then you're not gonna get that
00:39:55.260
like if you're someone who go over your head yeah if you're misogynistic you're obviously not
00:39:59.120
gonna absorb that part of the movie uh and some of these comments are proof of that like this one
00:40:04.820
says that's why i took my brother to watch transformers when the rest of my family went to
00:40:09.980
watch barbie and i was like okay you could have just said you wanted to see transformers right that
00:40:17.480
part i'm like y'all guess what baby y'all still paid the same amount for that ticket it's all the same
00:40:23.160
honestly that's the one about the beasts i assume the transformers movie but yes beasts and
00:40:28.780
automobiles rolling out that's all you really need to know that's it that's the whole movie
00:40:34.380
so this is uh also when they talk about how it's like it brainwashes women to hate men
00:40:41.620
men are not the center of that movie that's kind of the whole point right the point is to like remove
00:40:47.660
men from your like confidence and like your self-worth is like it's to pluck it out and don't
00:40:54.600
value them right don't weigh their opinions for your own self-worth like that that's the point
00:40:59.260
hello like this one says what the heck are these comments she hit it on the nose or on the dot this
00:41:06.160
movie was the most sexist movie i've ever seen i love when men say women are sexist i love that
00:41:12.520
oh it gives me a little tingle oh i love it they just got opinions because they got breath in their lungs
00:41:18.700
that's what i've come to the conclusion of yeah it's one of those where you're like well i'm not
00:41:24.560
gonna convince you hello right literally that's why when i make my videos i'm just fucking mean to
00:41:29.320
them i know i'm not trying to change you like you're not gonna change so you're not gonna listen
00:41:33.400
to me so i might as well make these fucking jokes hello catch these jokes bitch that's all
00:41:40.620
that's just playing around though true they're just playing they're just messing around playing sports
00:41:47.280
this one says i didn't make it five minutes into that movie and i turned it off i couldn't sit
00:41:53.820
through that well first of all that's a lie because you can't turn off a movie and that movie's not
00:41:58.320
streaming services liar liar liar you're lying you're a sinner
00:42:02.480
second like i know we can't show their pictures but this guy is bald
00:42:08.520
listen it tracks is all i'm saying like it's a pattern like one time's a coincidence two times
00:42:14.440
it's a pattern that part when i make jokes about men being bald like they get so fucking mad at me
00:42:18.800
and they call me sexist which again like that's not what sexism is babe that's called being mean
00:42:23.880
i'm being mean to you get it right all she's saying is you look like a kneecap or an elbow
00:42:29.140
bald bald bitch like and honestly take it up with god like it's not my fault he doesn't like you
00:42:36.860
that part we didn't take your hair jeans away i just didn't give them to you if anything
00:42:41.480
that's why you should hate women you should hate your mom because most times male pattern baldness
00:42:46.080
comes through maternal bloodlines come on that would make sense if you hated your mom for that
00:42:50.520
reason but most of them still kiss their mom on the mouth so i guess it doesn't matter that part
00:42:55.000
and i bet their mom got a little karen bob i can see it now yeah this guy we can't show his
00:43:02.180
picture but he is literally bald like he's a bald white guy and he has like a one of those like
00:43:07.020
beards that sits on the chin yeah underneath it doesn't go up yeah nice love that that's like the
00:43:14.440
oh i love that starter you can pick a race starter pack right here bald head a wraparound sunglasses
00:43:23.360
hello beard that only goes on the chin on the chin doesn't go up no mustache nothing
00:43:28.900
love that for him james i'll say your name james this is james on here i think too like
00:43:37.360
i just think if you don't like things why would you pay money to go see them right i don't understand
00:43:44.320
it because if he did quote unquote turn it off or walk out you literally wasted your money and guess
00:43:51.160
what they still don't know who the fuck you are i don't like your movie sir who are you again
00:43:57.920
it's the same thing like what we said it's like you're at home right i'm on the carpet you're at
00:44:04.240
home thank you babe thank you thank you so much made a bag and a half ryan goodman made a bag and a
00:44:09.020
half you spent the bag all you had really hello right you spent the bag all you had so therefore
00:44:18.380
they're winning i think too with with that's how i feel about all haters but especially like
00:44:24.920
when they are hyper critical like of your outfit of my outfit of of just anything under the sun
00:44:31.120
because they are allowed to they see it and that's their free speech is they get to like write hate
00:44:35.680
right i always just think like it's kind of like what my friend caleb says he's like my life is better
00:44:40.440
than yours and it always will be and you hate that and that's how i fall so you can write this all day
00:44:46.140
long but like i'm still going to be living a much better more fulfilled life than you come on at the end
00:44:50.960
of the day my friend samaya said something the other day that kind of stuck with me i think she
00:44:55.500
said you can't have two cents if you ain't got two dollars to give period period that's wise right i
00:45:05.200
love that hello that little boy there's james you was probably pissed because you spent your money
00:45:11.080
and enjoyed the movie now you ain't got two dollars to give your two cents so keep it to yourself
00:45:15.320
exactly okay so as we wrap it up what would you say is your best piece of advice for people who are
00:45:23.220
trying to whether they're trying to be a creator or they're just trying to like exist in the world in
00:45:28.660
this world that can be so scary sometimes what would you say is your best piece of advice to be like
00:45:33.060
as authentic as possible especially online right my best piece of advice would just be
00:45:40.660
to go into it knowing who you are as a person and you always know to grow as an individual
00:45:46.700
and things like that sort but don't filter yourself to try to fit a standard or a group that you feel
00:45:55.800
like you're belonging because you're going to belong where you belong and what's for you is for you no man
00:46:00.740
can take it away so therefore just be yourself be your authentic self show your personality and just be
00:46:07.420
true to what you know and who you are as a person because i feel like that's how we've been able to
00:46:11.420
win and anybody else i've seen grow in this space and don't be afraid from if you see somebody with
00:46:18.040
higher status or a-list celebrity if them bitches are rude to you do not give them the same respect
00:46:22.540
you have to give respect to get it period because at the end of the day i'm like i don't we still pissing
00:46:27.580
shit the same way my mom always told me uh opinion is like an asshole we all got one so don't let
00:46:36.440
nobody judge you and try to walk over you like you don't mean anything or add any value yeah you are
00:46:42.620
a great individual you add so much to the team and so much to the world so just be yourself and just show
00:46:49.660
your authentic self because at the end of the day that's what people are going to want to relate to and
00:46:53.800
connect to and see who you truly are as an individual so period yeah i love that and and
00:47:00.280
also to your same point about if even if they're like a more famous person if they're rude to you
00:47:05.400
especially if you're trying to be a creator or something you don't have to be polite back or you
00:47:09.380
don't have to like do anything to like make them like you like don't try to pretend to be someone
00:47:13.660
you're not to make them like you this industry is very small and everybody remembers and to piggyback
00:47:19.160
of what you say you know our virgo energy i remember everything me too i ain't gonna say
00:47:23.660
the person's name but in my starting days their team reached out to me and asked me to collab with
00:47:31.000
them i was on the way i lived in calabasas at the time on the way to beverly hills they're like okay
00:47:35.360
can we push the chute back an hour i said yeah that's fine i just drove around beverly hills and
00:47:39.060
then they canceled day of so then fast forward i saw them at a fight in atlanta so i went to approach
00:47:46.120
them and i was like hi this person that person your team i said the guy's name so obviously
00:47:50.240
bitch you know your team yeah i'm like this person reached out to me to want to do some
00:47:54.200
collabs for your stuff i just want to introduce myself and let you know that i love you love
00:47:58.920
everything you stand for this and the third that bitch looked at me was like i don't know anything
00:48:03.500
about that but hi and just like that i was like this i have never i was like and then whoever who was
00:48:10.900
with her was like well we'll text you when we're back in la it's so nice to meet you like pulled
00:48:14.980
her away from me and fast forward to now that was in 2021 fast forward to now that bitch texted
00:48:20.400
me personally the other day and tried to invite me to her party did i go fuck no and then her team
00:48:25.420
reached out again and i'm gonna make sure i charge them bitches an arm and a lug because i know you have
00:48:29.240
a bag yeah the first time around i was just gonna do it for free yeah or you know at the belowest of
00:48:34.240
the low rate because i just love you as an individual and as a person in your craft but now i'm gonna make
00:48:38.940
sure i rip every ligament and make sure i tear your damn labrum off when i try to charge your arm and
00:48:43.960
a lake and we never forget right and neither does anyone else like this industry is very small
00:48:50.380
right so when you're rude especially if you're if we're a virgo if you're rude to a virgo hello
00:48:55.860

00:49:06.620
