James Charles is opening up to fans about
some behind-the-scenes secrets during his
time filming his show Instant Influencer,
buuuut he might’ve let out a little more
information than we needed to hear…
literally.
What’s up guys, it’s Sussan Mourad with
Clevver News, and there’s nothing like breaking
news about breaking wind to kick the week
off strong, amiright?!
We love it when celebs give us an up-close-and-personal
glimpse into their lives behind closed doors
as a means of connecting on a much deeper
level with their fans, but sometimes, there’s
some information that is perfectly ok to leave
out.
James Charles decided to share some deeply
personal information about his time filming
his YouTube Originals competition show Instant
Influencer.
He took to Twitter over the weekend to detail
his overactive bowels with fans during the
show’s finale… in other words, the dude
was farting up a storm.
Look, we’re all human, and sometimes as
humans we can’t help but accidentally let
one slip from time to time, but this wasn’t
just a one-and-done situation, and he has
fellow influencer, Norvina, to thank for airing
out his stinky little secret.
She took to Twitter to share a screenshot
of the judges’ panel, writing QUOTE, “If
anyone is wondering why I kept making this
face, it’s because @jamescharles was farting
every 3 minutes.
He was blowing me up.
I was trying so hard not to laugh, and I wanted
to kill him because there were 10 cameras
locked on us the whole time.”
Dirty call out, right?!
But James being his unapologetic self, decided
to take the accusation and completely run
with it.
He followed up Norvina’s tweet by recalling
even more details from that moment, writing,
“HAHAHAHAHA I don’t remember what I ate
but I farted at least 50 times during the
finale. we were all cracking up.”
Honestly, mad props to James for completely
owning his flatulence, but I feel for Norvina
who got a front row seat to the stench show.
Thankfully, fans couldn’t help but laugh
along with James as they applauded him for
being so honest and relatable.
One user wrote, “Omg lmao James I fully
have that issue at times [to] you just can’t
help it lmao.”
Others, on the other hand, however, weren’t
too thrilled with this little detail, like
this user who wrote, “Not gonna lie, that’s
low key nasty... unless you smell like roses
and moonbeams…”
Then this fan really put things into perspective,
tweeting, “imagine being a normal teenage
boy one day and then BAM you have your own
show and your crop dusting the CEO of one
of your favorite brands with your farts on
your own TV show.”
Safe to say James has officially… made it?
The finale of Instant Influencer, which aired
on Friday, has already garnered over 7 million
views in less than 48 hours, and the series
has received massive amounts of praise as
fans are already begging James to shoot a
second season.
After narrowing down six influencers from
a pool of thousands, James and his team put
the beauty moguls to the test with challenges
including product pitching, drag transformations
and even apologizing for a scandal, which
we all know James is pretty familiar with,
buuuut it comes with the territory of being
an ‘influencer.’
The show came down to the wire between Benny,
Kailin and Ashley -- and for those of you
who haven’t tuned in yet, I suggest you
hit pause, tune into the finale and come back
to this video.
After being successful in pretty much all
of the challenges, it was Ashley who was crowned
James’ very first Instant Influencer!
In one of her most memorable challenges, Ashley
was paired with Nikita Dragun where the two
recorded a vulnerable collab video on the
subject of motherhood.
Ashley seemed to touch the hearts of many
throughout the competition, which is one important
quality of an influencer, so many congrats
are in order for the reigning champ!
Not only did she walk away with $50,000, but
she’s also set to do a collab with James
on his YouTube channel, only this time, let’s
just hope James opted out of indulging in
fart-inducing food for lunch…

letting the smelly cat out of the bag and
