Colleen is back with an apology vlog

she had to get it in before the christmas season 🤣

​@ville__you don't even have any content 💀💀

[@jessicaabaker]

"pumpkin spice apology" made me laugh out loud. You hit the nail on the head with that one. Hope you are doing well btw xx

[@CocoonMasterBrendan]

@ville__begone bot

[@Loohoo2]

She knows exactly who to apologize to and didn’t. That was a choice!

[@ladyeowyn42]

Yeah she could have said their names. Like Swoop does.

[@Loohoo2]

@ville__ so he deserved Colleen sending her bra and panties to a child? It’s obvious how old you are.

[@Helen-oi7qm]

​@ville__ that doesn't make her innocent

[@DeniseBobese]

She won't directly apologize. That would be an admission of guilt that would hold up in court. She's awful not stupid.

[@QueenFairyBread]

@ville__ And? what's your point?

[@frightfang]

When she says, “I’m not a perfect person,” my brain instantly got that stupid Hoobastank song stuck on repeat. I’m glad she didn’t break into a cover of that. We’ve all had enough singing from her.

[@LosAngelesLaura]

😂😂😂😂😂😂😂☠️☠️☠️☠️☠️☠️

[@brockingandrolling9542]

​@ville__we've seen VIDEOS girly pop. Grooming minors falls under "anything"

[@kaskus7147]

Same

[@LatinaChef1986]

Now that song is stuck in my head too! Dang it!

[@justnana13-klj40]

Love that song! Hoobastank, not that God awful Gossip Train mess....😂

[@qtnebula]

The fact that she's lived through the memes of apology videos and still sucks at apologizing when she has those as points of reference of what NOT to do is actually insane.

[@marianagarcia-ws9sl]

She gave; "im sorry you feel that way" vibes

[@ErenaaLamb]

She is just saying what the lawyers probably told her to say. Sorry for what? She didn't just "hurt people". And then to make it into a vlog, this is insane. Nothing learned.

[@ANYHOO0]

No mention of the actual victims.

[@kaskus7147]

I hate when people say "I'm not a perfect person". No one asked you to be perfect, as*hole. Being confronted with your bad actions and people wanting you to be accountable for what you did is not asking for perfection. It is telling you where you f*cked up and saying "Fix this and be better moving forward". She chose to try and ruin Adam's life when he spoke out about what happened between them. She didn't do that because she was immature and made an oopsy. She did it because thought she was more important than him. That is just one thing she did wrong (maliciously) in the list of sh*t she needs to take accountability for and people wanting that accountability is not asking for perfection.

[@KittyandLoo]

Main reason she didn't apologize for grooming is because she isn't a dumb person. Don't think for one second I'm on her side even a single % but think about her actions since. 1. She attacked the victims, Adam significantly, herself and weaponized her fan base to attack them 2. She hired a very very expensive attorney who specializes in defending horrible horrible SA peeps 3. She saw with James Charles how any chance we, drama/news channels get showcase him saying there are victims of JC and he was desperate 4. She is not going to ever admit to specifics because they are crimes she committed and that would be very valuable to the defendants side if legal action was sought. And 5. She simply is a narcissist and truly isn't sorry

[@clairebear-96]

When she said “many many years ago” that really jumped out to me too 💀 And she totally should’ve made them two separate videos, just keep the apology by itself, why would you ever put a vlog right after 😂

[@lilycollegemythbusters5532]

Yes, talk about awkward intro segment. Does she think her followers are parents with gardens???

[@brockingandrolling9542]

Any time I was assaulted, I was informed very clearly that I was crazy, attention seeking, and making it up. By calling SA (abuse, not necessarily assault) allegations part of a "toxic gossip train" to mock your victims, she gaslit and attempted to manipulate them. I struggle with remembering my traumas and I often don't feel like those time periods are real. Hell, usually I don't feel real. The twisting and denial of someone's reality is proof that you are making a choice to prioritize yourself. That's pure evil. How is anyone supposed to believe that viewpoint can change in a year?

[@ginbug7061]

Can we acknowledge the silent slay these last few days? RTG is looking fire 🔥 🫶🏻

[@amelieschardt9258]

Yess - that top in this video?!!

[@00st307-m]

Funny how she does this rushed - out of breath - speech to feign any kind of “sorry” emotion. When the actual emotion she seems to be exhibiting is annoyance + anger.

[@thotpatrol7901]

She's looking sideways and that's when you know she's not sorry/ it's not genuine

[@nicematerial]

Still hoping she can minimize it enough that people forget that THE ALLEGATIONS ARE GROOMING

[@sarahg2665]

That’s exactly what she’s trying to do. She’s hoping eventually enough people will forget that if it’s brought up again, they won’t know the allegations were this serious. That’s part of the reason she won’t specifically mention what she did and who she hurt.

[@ladylarry75]

the part where she says she doesn't know how to transition to the vlog part, it feels SO intentional. as if to say "oh gosh im so silly and couldn't possibly be calculated and conniving!"

[@dandelion_official4812]

Yep, that's called bad acting 🙄

[@makenziecollins8124]

"apology vlog" tells us everything we need to know

[@Spawnofademon]

Colleen, Shane and Jeffree all prove that canceling doesn’t mean anything the fact all of these people done ILLEGAL stuff and just are going about their day is wild

[@asdfghjklasdfghjkl321]

And James Charles 💀

[@Tracylyn42]

And making a ton of money. Wtf is going on that this keeps being accepted?

[@angelcake7077]

Not even just going about their day despite breaking the law but CONTINUING to make MONEY on the platforms they committed crimes on…. horrendous…

[@Spawnofademon]

@ville__do you know what’s going on 💀

[@Spawnofademon]

@@angelcake7077exactly it’s WILD that people still support these people

[@neverlandnights]

There's a huge difference between "I hurt people" and "people got hurt"

[@olive92]

also the "many many years ago" excuse is ridiculous because she was actively in groupchats with minors STILL until THIS YEAR. She only stopped (or started new ones) when everything came to light

[@GirlieCarolinas]

Was she still being inappropriate in these group chats this year?

[@mclandekenna]

@@GirlieCarolinasyea😭 she was directing fans to stalk to her ex husband, using sexual innuendos, attacking people, it’s so much.

[@dumbysoup9011]

She brushed over how she gaslit and made her fans attack a minor for opening up about being groomed by her, never said “I’m sorry Adam for attacking you when you wanted to get justice for what I’ve done to you” just pretended it was silly things she did a very long time ago when it was documented up to 2020, yes almost 4 years ago but still not too long ago

[@brandi5448]

She was in the group chats with minors this year. She left after Kody made their video and it's been proven. She's full of shite.

[@wordnado9788]

Yea, this! I wanted her to apologize to him.

[@mad1739]

You're self-reflection and recognition of your own biases and tendencies is one of the many reasons youre top 3 of the 'drama/controversy/social commentsry' channels I enjoy. Thanks for another great vid. Hope you're being kind to yourself 😊

Hope you get the help you need ❤

[@dsrtsnw]

yup there with you

[@exploatores]

I think the question to Colleen should be. "If a guy did the same. to your kids." would you accept the same kind of excuses you made. If not, why should we accept yours.

[@ANYHOO0]

Her last apology was so embarrassing that it's still up on her channel.

[@vixtex]

The Internet never forgets

[@DipityS]

ballinger: How this affected me. Screw everybody else. Okay, now I have to get back to pimping out my kids for content - the only reason I had them was to create a family channel, and for the last five months those kids have been sitting out useless to me, so we need to get things back on the track - everybody back to their job! CHOP-CHOP - Toxic Money Chain to Fame - for me!

[@CarpeCupcake]

she really did set up the same clean, white, warm aesthetic as Myka and James Stauffer's "sorry we yeeted our kid" video

[@Philosophycase15]

She will NEVAAAA apologize to her victims because, in her mind, THEY ARE HATERS. And She hates them! She is apologizing to her FANS (and her fans only) who may have been victimized in the past and felt triggered by her actions. She still doesn't believe she actually groomed these kids. I can bet money that she doesn't think teenagers are kids. But what predator believes they are a predator? Even PDFiles believe they've done nothing wrong because the kids they abuse stay silent.

[@damarakap9738]

She's so... Vague about the things she did and is saying sorry for which makes the apology so empty. Also including the vlog at the end was... Yikes. Not the move honestly

[@GroovyGizmos]

she wrote down the script just like she wrote the ukelele sorry not sorry statement

[@RafidW9]

Idk why she can't take hints that nobody wants to see her. Just go away.

[@mclandekenna]

love this comment

[@ericjauregui3089]

I absolutely loved your content and your approach to the topics and subjects you cover in your vids. Your in my top 10 . Enjoy your day, take care and thank you.

[@rockmusicisperfection2791]

Ever since all that shit went down, I can’t look at her without getting bad vibes… I never watched her stuff, but once people are outed as unsavory characters, you can’t look at them the same way. Also, the fact that she has children is terrifying. Those poor kids

[@Lana-un2qk]

Exactly

[@MeatloafCreep]

You're not being nit picky. That's the ideal boundary to have for an apology. It's also a relief that you have the same standards. Very validating! Also you look so pretty and love the top!! ❤ 🥵 I thought of Jenna marbles apology video where she went through her videos and talked about it. I thought that was a good apology video and I miss Jenna.

[@IamNitaJ]

It's the "the thing I did many many years ago" that negates everything she said. She JUST left that group chat filled with minors a couple of months ago.

[@transsnack]

If she wanted to be taken seriously, she should have, at the very least, said the names of the people she hurt. Instead, she kept it vague, and took no accountability. She's a coward.

[@planetofaliens]

The ukulele video is still up. She's not sorry.

[@pizza_queen8345]

I just don’t understand how people are accepting her back after she made a mockery of those involved and doesn’t seem to be taking it seriously…Like how can you actually standby someone like her

[@hanabiramochi]

As far as I've seen, she has not reached out directly to any of the victims, from what the victims are stating online (Adam, Becky, Oliver, etc). So she doesn't care, she just wants to get back to posting and make holiday ad revenue. Disgusting

[@nnebelle]

apologizing for what you did vs that someone got hurt is like apologizing for the consequences of your actions but not your actual actions

[@HopeCasias10]

🎶 I’m not a perfect person There’s many things I wish I didn’t do 🎶 Ass vibes

Pumpkin spice apology 😂 definitely the vibes I got

[@gabimaza780]

She’s gonna get away with it and it pisses me off.

[@savannahj6660]

She can’t apologize for exactly what she did because there would be legal percussions that she doesn’t want to face. It would be admitting fault.

[@xronann]

'really embarrassing ' isnt the word lol.

[@artisticnights6222]

She should’ve added I was Inappropriate I was insensitive I was wrong for the actions I took And so much more 🤦🏻‍♀️ Why is it hard to directly respond and take accountability

[@woodanemone9758]

She said mistakes. Just like before, she says she made mistakes and is not perfect. She acted pathologically. The apology was vague. She should have said the victim's names.

[@lillith77]

I have a hard time buying the whole "my ego got in the way" when she had a ton of people who she pays telling her to stfu, but she still decides to eukele her way through it. Um, no. A rogue Twitter post? Maybe. A whole thought out song telling everyone to phluck off? Hell no

[@crh.hedgehogs]

I love that outfit, shows your amazing artwork perfectly. I know the topic is serious, but I felt you needed to hear that.

[@elsapadrons]

The expression "PR scientist" was poetic. I adore you

[@HopeCasias10]

This comes off as insincere because she was rapidly losing followers and like she consulted a PR person and caved in this. Decided to admit a wrong to save her bank account

[@justnana13-klj40]

If she apologizes, she is acknowledging she did wrong. That is admission. With there being actual crimes- she won't. She needed to stay gone. And funny how my comments on her videos keep going away ..🤔

[@CompanionCorbs]

This “apology” seems formulaic in a way to avoid any additional legal accountability down the road. If feels like PR and legal advice was involved with the directions to “get her back to making money ASAP”.

[@elenielac]

I dont think there´s a way to apologize for grooming. She should be in jail.

[@GirlieCarolinas]

She didn’t groom anyone, you domino.

[@blcksvvan]

​@@GirlieCarolinasGrooming is when someone builds a relationship, trust and emotional connection with a child or young person so they can manipulate, exploit and abuse them. That's exactly what she did. She treated actual children as her therapists and discussed her sex life with them.

[@spooky_shears]

You're 100% right as always, Glare, and your outfit and you look gorgeous (as always). Hope you're doing well 🧡

[@Tracylyn42]

This is a rinse and repeat of 2020. Still saying 15 yrs ago and also many years ago makes it sound like this happened 15 yrs ago. She took absolutely 0 Zero responsibility. I agree with you that she needed to say what she was apologizing for.

[@gummybear340]

Her ukulele video is still up she doesn’t care

[@tfpradgirl9537]

I hope she gets sued for what she's done.

[@artisticnights6222]

Thank you for uploading. Been looking forward to your vids Also cute outfit 🫶🏻

[@BeeKee404]

Not gonna lie, I did not think Colleen would have the stomach to come back. I know she's shared in the past how "sensitive" she is to hate so the fact that she actually came back knowing full well she was going to be met with a lot of backlash is honestly shocking. Keep in mind that I'm not saying this as a compliment to her behalf. I say this as a "I can't believe she'd actually show her face on the internet again" and to do it in such a piss poor way as well. I mean credit where credit's due, her "apology" was world's better than that ukulele disaster but the fact of the matter is that she still hasn't acknowledged the people she's affected and I feel like she never will. I truly feel she's just going to put it behind her and act like it never happened and act as if her current "apology" is enough. If she proves me wrong then I'll be shocked.

[@mariashaki89]

That mortgage needs to be paid and her channel would get demonitized past 6 months of inactivity. She came back for the bag and nothing else.

[@Luna-Prismatic]

​@@mariashaki89holiday ad revenue as well. KZbinrs get paid more in December due to increased ads running on the platform.

[@wordnado9788]

I think as an addict apologies feel different. We make amends, and sometimes we have to decide if we are putting those we harmed in the forefront and not apologizing for ourselves

[@tiagocosmos]

If she was a man, she'd be in jail, getting the treatment that prisoners give to that sort. Period.

[@Silviaexcuchuflus]

You’re not nitpicking at all. Her “statement” is very manipulative and calculated to turn herself the victim again 😤

[@dezia398]

Listening to her "apology" it sounded like I was listening to some of the lyrics from "The Reason" by Hoobastank.

[@kenziemay1943]

For someone who is “apologizing” she really was being very egotistical in her speach/word choices.

[@olive92]

@@GirlieCarolinas okay colleen

[@IamBardsongWolf]

The only decent apology was Jenna Marbles and she technically didn't have to apologize since they were old videos with obviously hurtful stereotypes. But, she apologized anyways and showed the evidence of the things she did and expressed how terrible she felt. Jenna genuinely apologized. She learned and grew up. None of these people did. I miss her but at least she's happy. Edit: I feel apologizing for doing racist stereotypes is actually a good thing. But majority of people want us to forget they did those things. But Jenna did not.

[@grawrisher]

This would be a pretty solid apology if she like...called someone's mom a ho or something like "I was immature, made inappropriate jokes, was careless with fan interactions and hurt people and I'm sorry but im learning and took time to rhink" like if you called someone's mom a ho that eould fit and be fairly solid apology.....but that was not what happened and this falls really short

[@GirlieCarolinas]

Legally, that’s all that happened no matter how badly the mob wants to bend reality.

I didn't see this as her including her apology in a vlog, I see it as her returning with a vlog and just addressing the situation first to make it less abrupt than to just return like nothing happened. I don't think the apology would've happened separately, it felt more like "before we get into the vlog I wanna just address my absence"

[@tiedielagoon]

[@xXSarahSacrificeXx]

I had no background on the situation of this video so I had to look back at the previous videos that you have done. You nailed it on the head at the ending of your last video on colleen: either shell do another halfass apology video and try to make content again to direct away from her past actions or disappear from the internet.

[@mimisreads3038]

i think she refuses to say ‘the thing’ because she genuinely believes she didn’t do it- and her apology sounds like it was just for being gone and for being ‘embarrassing’ in her song. she is apologizing to her fans not to the actual victims.

"And ahm, ahm, and ahm..... uhm.." she says it so 🧐

[@jaynedavis3388]
