Hey what’s up everyone it’s Sussan Mourad
here at Clevver News, and James Charles is
speaking out about getting DEATH THREATS over
his JoJo Siwa collab.
So, as we know James Charles has been all
over the internet lately and not all of it
was for the best of reasons.
Just a couple days ago a seemingly frantic
James took to his Instagram to go on a full
blown rant about a PR package sent to him
from a new beauty line full of empty products.
That new beauty line just so happened to be
that of Lauren Conrad’s and James held nothing
back when showing off the empty tubes saying
"I just opened a PR package from a new makeup
brand from somebody who has no business having
a makeup brand."
He added, "Stop making makeup brands.
Stop!
Stop!"
Lauren took to her social media in a now deleted
post to share her side of the story writing,
"For those asking about the empty components
sent to James... let me tell you a funny story."
She continued, "The woman who put together
the gifts (it was me) decided to fill a makeup
bag full of empty samples to make sure everything
would fit inside.
When beauty products arrived and it was time
to fill all the makeup bags she (again, me)
accidentally included the bag full of empties
with the others and it was sent out.
She will be let go immediately."
James then took to his stories yet again to
explain his reaction and also issue an apology.
He said, "Wanted to write an apology to Lauren
Conrad for my stories earlier.
I've been on the verge of tears all day long
from a ton of things going wrong & opening
her PR package was the icing on the cake of
weird things happening today.
My stories talking about the products were
supposed to be funny but they just came across
as nasty because I was so upset, not with
her, but with other things that happened today.
Lauren and I spoke privately about the misunderstanding
& are both good."
Now moving onto his collaboration with Jojo
Siwa.
By now you probably saw the transformative
pics where James glammed up Jojo - where she
was almost unrecognizable as the Jojo we know!
You gotta admit, these pics definitely stopped
so many of us from scrolling on our feed with
“omg is that Jojo?!”
And Jojo gave James a full Jojo Siwa make-over.
Well following the collaboration going live,
many Twitter stans started to go OFF on the
collaboration and Jojo’s transformation.
And before you freak out, JoJo says her new
style won’t last long and said back in April
the bows and bright colors are here to STAY.
She said, “Recently, I’ve been showing
myself looking different — not the classic
rainbow, sparkles and side ponytail with a
JoJo bow.
I’ve been hated on for YEARS for dressing
‘young’ and acting ‘childish.’
People think this is me changing.
LOL nope!
I love who I am!”
But the excitement with a lot of James Charle’s
fans didn’t last long when some of his fans
came for him about the collab, leaving James
no choice but to address the elephant in the
room.
He wrote, “I said today’s collab was with
someone I waited two years to work with & I
was so excited for and now I’m getting death
threats because stan twitter assumed it would
be their fav and it wasn’t.
there are a TON of huge artists I’d love
to film with one day, be patient!”
He followed up with, “I liked a few tweets
from fans saying they wanted me to collab
with their favs because I also would love
to collab with their favs.
If I DID collab with their favs, today would've
been full of "stay away from her" tweets anyway.
Leave me alone!”
Fans were quick to come after James and let
him know their TRUE feelings with one fan
writing, “things you did wrong.
Said the person you were collabing with was
a “celebrity.”
Said this collab was “break the internet”
worthy.
Said you waited 2 years implying this is an
a-list celeb.
Liked tweets about Ariana collab.
We have a reason to be dissapointed.”
Someone else wrote, “Ok but can you please
help me understand how is a collab with Jojo
Siwa "internet breaking worthy."
OUCH!
Someone else chimed in “No one sent him
death threats.
Lol.”
Obviously, it is never okay to send anyone
death threats or threats in general!
In this day in age, it’s better to spread
love and light than darkness, so how about
we all agree to do that?
And as James said, there’s plenty of big
artists he’d love to work with, and hopefully
one day he will, so patience is key!
