James recently said something along the lines of “I’m not completely gay because I like trans men.”

that implies that trans men aren’t completely men. which is insentive, insulting, and invalidating.

he also recently attended the Met Gala and tweeted something like “What a huge step forward for influencer representation in the media!”

people were insulted because he implied influencers were a marginalized group of sorts when they directly work in media.

personally, I believe people are overreacting about the Met Gala.

I think James just said something a bit ditzy, but had no terrible intentions. it was just insensitive and unintelligent, but not cruel.

on the other hand, I believe he completely deserves the backlash for what he said about trans men. he’s getting none of my pity for that.

    He’s friends with another beauty guru called Tati and she has her own vitamin pill brand and James supported Tatis competition another vitamin brand on his instagram and Tati has always supported James on her channel so posted a video of her in tears as she felt betrayed

    He released his tour tickets and VIP were over 500 pounds for just a meet and greet a little goodie bag and MAYBE front row seats. Whereas others like Jeffree Star has VIP tickets for 100 - 250 (not sure of exact price) which included breakfast with him, over 350 pounds of makeup and certain front row seats and some other stuff I can’t remember

  3. Ebola incident
    James posted on twitter saying “I can’t believe we’re going to Africa today omg what if we get Ebola” which is now deleted due to so much backlash

He’s a male makeup artist who is considered gay but I guess he’s ‘not completely gay’? He has a YouTube channel.

Well I don’t really blame Tati for making that video on him since Gabriel Zamora made a video on her and told her to make a video.And Gabriel pretty much made a fool of himself once again because James apologized anyway.

So basically this was what i remembered in the video for those who didn’t watch:

  • Tati and her Husband helped James get to where he is (reviewing contracts, putting him on tatis channel, helping him get commission blah blah blah
  • James promoted those vitamins which he claimed was in exchange for security which made no sense because he’s obviously still under contract and can afford security. Not onloy that but said he hated the company and the ingredients
  • James liked to boast about being able to turn straight guys gay, at their dinner party he talked about how he wanted to do inappropriate things with the waiter. Tati said “he’s straight” And James said “its okay I’m a celebrity”
