Hi sisters just here to report on yet another James Charles sister scandal
The makalah has come and gone. But James is still making headlines. And unfortunately, it's not for his crazy glam
Look, what's up guys? It's Susan
we're here with clever news and we have to talk about this comment James Charles has made that's receiving some major backlash as
We all know the Met Gala is the most exclusive event in the fashion and entertainment industries
And this year James was one of the very few influences to score an invite
Which we can all agree is a very big deal
But it's not his invite that has thousands of people unsubscribing from his YouTube channel
It's his Instagram caption James wrote quote being invited to such an important event
Like the ball is such an honor and a step forward in the right direction for influencer
Representation in the media and I am so excited to be a catalyst yikes
Okay, so people are definitely not here for the whole influencer representation thing
James is being accused of comparing privileged influences to actual marginalized groups who fight for representation literally everyday
Everywhere, they go with over 16 million subscribers on his own channel
A lot of people don't think James is fighting too hard for representation in his field
It looks like this may have just been a very very unfortunate choice of words to describe his first makalah experience
But Twitter is up in arms over James's caption one person tweeted quote. Ah, yes the historically oppressed and marginalized
class
Influences while another said sorry sister, but I don't think influence
Our representation is the best focus of your bloody huge platform when there's some actual real
Serious issues in the world right now and you're in the privileged position to be a catalyst in fixing those
Thanks James did appear to respond to the backlash on his Instagram stories
He said quote I wanted to say thank you for those who left positive comments on today's Met Gala video
The reaction is definitely split
I knew this was going to happen though
Anytime anything like this ever happens with an influence of doing something new people tend to be very up in arms about it
but I can see why and we can all agree that going to the Met Gala was a
Huge deal for James and it's okay to be excited
But he just may need to be a little more careful with his words next time now. We want to hear from you
What did you think of James's caption? And which influences would you like to see at next year's Magdala?
