If you watch my video from yesterday
Then you know that nikkietutorials
Actually started her winter wonder week on December 20th where she uploaded a video called following a Bob Ross painting tutorial on my face
Well yesterday on December 21st, James Charles actually uploaded a video called
I tried following a Bob Ross tutorial on my face
Considering James's past history and most recently where he allegedly
copied the Instagram influencer people gave the title of that video a glance and gave it the sister side eye because they were like,
Oh
We're really gonna be out here now copy and Nicky
Something that I'm sister side-eyeing more than the fact that he has the same title as her is the views on those videos the screenshots
That you're seeing of the two videos above right now. I actually just took before recording this video. Nicky's has 1.1 million and James has
3.3 million. So if that's not sister shaking Nicky and her boots
I don't know what what well after Twitter and YouTube were flipping their shit because they saw the exact same title
James actually pinned a comment underneath his video saying
Nikki and I filmed these videos on the same night and even facetimed while filming she happened to get hers up first
Nikki and I are close friends there is no competition neither of us copied and in fact
Neither one of us were the originators of this trend. There is no need to leave comments about it
Just enjoy the paintings and videos james is currently getting called out over on twitter because people are giving him the sister side. I
Dear god if I say fucking sister one more time
I'm gonna hurl but people are giving him the sister side eye because he actually
Tweeted and respond to someone and said for the record
I filmed this first Nikki happened to get hers up first and neither one of us were the creator of this trend
Nikki and I are good friends and there is no competition we both killed the challenge in my opinion
People are having a problem with that because in James pind comment that I just read to you guys
He said then Nikki and him facetimed while they were both filming their videos. So people are saying that he is sister fucking lying and
The stories don't add up someone responded to him saying on YouTube
You said you both filmed this the same night and FaceTime each other and here you are saying you filmed it first
It doesn't match love both videos
but things don't match people also felt like James was taking a jab at Nikki by saying I
filmed this first
like he really had to throw that into his
Explanation to try to make himself feel better about something someone went on to say you didn't have to save for the record
I filmed this first like that doesn't make any difference
It's not your concept you could have just said neither of us started this trend
Another person came in defensive Nikki by saying. Ok. You filmed the video first
However, the idea was brought up in her never would I ever make up challenge video uploaded three weeks ago? Lol someone else commented?
Oh, you filmed it first
Ok
At first I thought it was a slap in the face because she was upset about not getting many views
Then you go and get 1.2 million in 5 hours like Oh lookie here Nikki. You're just not interesting
So glad you said that before people started spreading ish about it in my opinion. I think it's extremely shaded that he uploaded it
So close to hers because she was already complaining about not getting many views. Whatever your thoughts are on that. That's fine
but as I'm recording this video, I actually just went and screenshotted her video and hearses that
1.1 million views since December 20th Hayes has been uploaded since December 21st and is at three point three million
If Nikki actually did mention this in her never would I never make up challenge video from three weeks ago or however long ago that?
Was then I totally think that there is a possibility that James Charles saw that video
Because as we know they are friends and just ran with the idea
I would also
place a bet that James Charles actually knows who
Originated this idea because I guarantee you that he sat there on his couch or wherever the hell he was sitting maybe on the toilet
And looked on YouTube at Bob Ross makeup tutorials on face to see what paintings people did to see who uploaded it
How many videos have been done what kind of views those people are getting and all of that?
I think it's very shady that he did not
Give credit to anyone because there probably is someone out there that he was inspired by I don't buy that whole I've been getting
Thousands upon thousands of comments. So I'm gonna do it now and that's the only reason I'm doing it
I don't buy that at all
well
As I was scrolling through speaking of giving credit to smaller influencers as I was scrolling through James Charles
thread on Twitter of his Bob Ross picture
I actually came across three people who I think do amazing work and I think that we should all give some love to because
They're just like your struggling artists. Let's give them a little credit now. I want to make it clear
I don't know anything about the people. I'm about to mention
So if they've been involved in some drama then obviously I do not know about it
I'm just going off of the looks that they posted underneath the James Charles's picture
The first one is a guy named Mark Manuel, which I am pretty sure I am butchering that name
So so sorry if I am it says I did a more simple painting of his today, haha
The next one is Ashley X Dolan, which says? Okay. Okay, okay
I tried at James Charles hers is amazing. Like I could never even attempt to do anything like that
I would look like someone just punched me in the forehead and I was bruising or recovering from a facelift and the last one is
Ruby underscore true it says oh, this is beautiful
I did something similar where she has a whole painting on her upper body and that is
beyond amazing
So yes
all three of these people are extremely talented and I just wanted to give them like a little shout out here because I
Mean why not support smaller influencers and creators because everyone's just out here struggling now, let's get into nikkietutorials
Responding to some critiques over on Twitter a little recap of Nicki and her winter wonder week drama
She tweeted out the other day saying at this point, I'm not even mad at how many of you aren't seeing
Hashtag winter Wonder week because of YouTube shit notification system. I'm downright devastated
I pour my soul into my videos and for my own subscribers to not even see them
I'm heartbroken given Nicki's track record
Especially from this year alone with hallo week where she did not
get the feedback that she was hoping to get she actually stopped doing Halloween six days in and did not upload the seventh video which
pissed off a lot of people because they
Felt like she was punishing the people that actually care about her videos and actually want to watch because of some negative
critiques that she received well
Her tweet about winter wonder week made people think that she was just not gonna do it at all and just canceled the whole series
Just because some views were not going out
She responded to people that were saying that the whole week is gonna be canceled by tweeting
Oh
Just to let you know
I'm not quitting hashtag winter wonder week at all how the week taught me a lot and I'm proud of the stuff
I'm showing you this week who's ready for makeup gingka tomorrow?
Someone respond to that tweet by saying Nikki a constructive criticism
Your channel is called Nikki tutorials and throughout the years your channel has gone from being actual
Tutorials that also included affordable makeup brands to watching you applying expensive makeup and less teaching
Nikki actually respond to that by saying
Thank You Jennifer I
Definitely get what you're saying. It's hard finding a balance to please as many of my followers as possible
I feel like every look has been done and explained but your advice is definitely something I'll remember I love the fact that Nikki does
Extreme looks on her Channel. I love that
She does all of the challenges but with something especially like winter wonder weak people
Nine times out of ten are not going to be painting their face with a Bob Ross tutorial
People don't want to look like the Grinch people are not going to be doing their face with Ginga blogs or anything
It's fun to watch sometimes
But Nikki's content as that girl said has gone from tutorials to just extreme things are watching her apply
Expensive makeup that honestly hardly anyone can afford in the response to that girl
Nikki says that she feels like every makeup look has been done
Yes, of course
It has but people subscribe to you because they want to watch you apply the makeup and you
To teach them how to do things. Look at mani
Anyway, he does the same damn look on his channel all the time and people keep coming back for that
They want to see you teach them not everyone is going to like mani MUA not everyone's going well
A lot of people are not gonna like Laura Lee many people are not going to like raw Beauty Christy
It's just a fact a major people click to who they click to
You need to go back to your roots and start teaching people
how to
Actually do some of your amazing techniques because you are such a talented you are one of the most talented that I've seen on YouTube
I genuinely hope that nikkietutorials
Actually takes the criticism of her followers because as people adapt online
You the creator have to adapt as well and give the people what they want. Otherwise, you're just gonna drop in subs
I mean James Charles and nikkietutorials have the exact same amount of subs, maybe like a few hundred thousand more on James's thing
But they are both in the eleven million range and James's video has over 3.3 million views right now
Niki's has 1.1 million
People aren't gonna want to watch the same thing from everyone. I hate to say it Nicki
I really think look at me acting like I'm actually talking to her
I really think that Nicki
Needs to go back to her roots and she really needs to start putting out the content and teaching people how to do makeup with
Affordable makeup. Yes, throw some bougie-ass items in there
Of course girl, cuz that's your lifestyle you do you bitch but start giving your subscribers what they want
Otherwise, they are just going to leave your channel dead and they're not going to come back to it. Your challenges are fun people
Enjoy watching them
But every video that's a challenge or every video where you're trying to do your makeup like a Bob Ross painting you're becoming the Grinch
or something people want
relatable content because they want to learn and they want to be a better version of themselves and you are the teacher they have given
You the opportunity to be the teacher. So I hope that Nicki does decide to take her subscribers advice
What do you guys think? Do you guys watch nikkietutorials? Do you watch James Charles?
Do you think that James Charles stole this idea from nikkietutorials after her never have I ever video and he just ran with it?
Do you think that James Charles is lying?
Because he said we facetimed while we were filming the same night
She just got hers up first, but then over on Twitter
he decided to say that he thumbs at first he really wanted to drive home that he filmed their first you guys and
That she just got her video up first. Let me know your thoughts down below
I love you guys, and I'll see you guys all in my next video. Bye
