girl you don't have to give an apology THE X FACTOR does.

[@Nameless_mixes]

She kind of does. Hear me out: It’s very important in this day in age to put a disclaimer in videos whenever mentioning anyone specifically (or organizations that can lead to individuals). The disclaimer should say something like “Please don’t send any hate or threats towards anyone or any group mentioned in this video”. Granted, Zoey probably would not have foreseen that anyone would be sending death threats to Nicole (as she pointed out). So, she made an oversight. She’s apologizing for it now. And she’ll most likely implement that change in the future. As horrible of a thing that anyone in the X Factor production team and staff did to these poor contestants, they don’t deserve to have their lives threatened. They deserve to feel pressured to issue out an apology or something of that nature. But they should never feel as though their lives are in jeopardy. So yeah, unlike the X Factor people, Zoey is doing the right thing by apology. Let’s see if they can grant Zoey the same luxury.

You deserve the support Zoe 💖

[@tgrlilly]

You are an inspiration, Zoe! I have to admit that I initially thought you reacted to being given no's but then I somewhat pieced it together thinking about you saying they asked you to sing a Pink song. I assumed you meant the producers and then the judge telling you if you heard it from their mouths? What a weird comment, it didn't make sense. Also, I've watched enough ANTM contestants speak out about their experience on that show ...I just assume there's more to the story. But NEVER did I imagine they manipulated the footage to the extreme that you've exposed. My questions ... is that even legal? Do you sign a contract that says they have authority to manipulate the footage like that? You throwing the mic, the fake hand clapping, fake dialogue, etc? Also, can't you sue for defamation? I'm thinking of the MAGA hat guy who was able to sue CNN and other media for editing footage of him and distorting the truth. I'm sure you can get something like a class action with other contestants. But then again this was years ago? Idk just a thought. Happy new year to you!

[@quintononezine548]

That’s just sickening how they bully people .. I not gonna lie I use to watch American idol and laugh at the contestants that could sing .. I just looked at it as entertainment… I had no idea what these shows did to people .. I’m no longer a fan of any reality tv show

[@ilikeslushxp4377]

whoever went to bully the judges thinking their helping you're not, you're just spreading negative energy & that's karma for you the words you put out in the universe will come back to you so if you don't want that karma don't bully others there are better ways to spread this

[@mariannasarver676]

Ilikesushi... People are open to other options.. social f... ing media isnt the way but please list your thoughtful suggestions... ☘️🎱

[@griff404]

I think that's all bullshit quite frankly but if we take in consideration the concept of karma then those judges are getting what they brought on themselves. this girl was even suicidal bc of what they did to her she could have been dead by now. Xfactor deserves as much hate as they get. I hope people keep on the good work bc they couldn't care less about anyone's feelings and we shouldn't care about theirs either

[@ilikeslushxp4377]

@@griff404 clearly you don’t seem to care what Zoe has said & what I said in my comment bullying *ANYONE* no matter what they done is never okay. You should just hope they have self growth & learn from their mistakes wish all of them love & light even if they are negative people. I hope you yourself have self growth from the hate you have in your heart & won’t let your ego control your feelings

Much Love Zoe. Thank you for confronting this with truth and being brave enough to share what happened to you and so many others. I hope that your life only improves.

she deserves to be put under pressure for what she’s done but no one deserves death threats.

[@lemonsayslookatherabout12y19]

That makes sense.

[@chichiperry]

Paula Godspeed goes so much deeper than that. She was Paula Abduls Stalker, that’s why Paula Abdul is so uncomfortable. She committed suicide out the front of Abduls home. That whole thing was absolutely deplorable.

Growth hurts. Mistakes hurt. I'm glad you are moving on and feel better. You are beautiful with your red hair and your lovely blouse. You are not those moments that have been recorded. Wishing you and your loved ones a merry christmas.

[@sylwiaj6160]

I am truly sorry for the loss of women you mentioned in the video. At the same time I am glad that you survived. No one deserves to be humiliated in such way. You are strong, talented and beautiful (inside and out) woman and always remember that. I am proud of you and I wish you all the best

Well said! It's refreshing to see someone on KZbin with class and condemn hate 💗

I'm so sorry that the X Factor gaslit you so horribly! I love that you stuck up to them and you have my respect. Keep spreading awareness because they need to change or be cancelled altogether. xx

The death threats are OTT. But the way that X factor treated you and others is just as horrific.

My mum auditioned for X factor the year Leona won and she got through to boot camp but they told everyone they let too many people through and they had to cut 200 people and she was one of them Very, very odd

Sounds like she got off lucky

[@deelama2060]

Good on ya Zoe. We thank you!

[@alaurahwillow155]

Anyone who would send threats to anyone isn't actually doing it for Zoe as it is clearly obvious that she would not stand for that or want ANYONE to go through that. People who would make threats only do it for the drama and nothing else. Hate doesn't cancel hate. Love cancels hate 💜

[@yehldyehld]

No, you're wrong. They're doing it out of anger. And no, love doesn't cancel hate. We had to destroy Hitler's army to remove his hate, and loving him wouldn't have changed that. Stop being a naive moron.

[@europianbob]

Very very sad about Paula Godspeed. :( She had been stalking Paula for years and they made her judge her.. She killed herself in her own car outside Paula's house. She even would trick Paula into calling her.. Pretending to be her boyfriend and leave a celll phone at her door and get her to call her pretending to be her boyfriend. RIP

[@tiffanystott9923]

I knew something was "fishy" with your audition, i could tell by the editing!! Cuz i could "hear" the audience getting into "So What" but the look of the audience just didnt add up to what i was hearing whilst the camera was on you. I felt like you were made a scapegoat, unfortunatly. I watched a video of you sing "Jolene" and i thought your singing, pitch and tone were EXCELLENT, we hear you across the ocean in the USA, i didnt notice the discrepencies til YOUR audition. Youre not only showing youre an incredible singer, your motivating people who have been "scapegoats" for entertainment to use their voice!! You go girl!! Love from America!! Keep going!!

[@Addy7891]

You deserve all the love Zoe🥰

@zoealexander I am so sorry you had to go through so many years of people being horrible to you because of what the xfactor was doing, if I was to have known you when you did your auction, I would have believed you straight away 😁😁I'm glad you're making lots of awesome original songs🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰💯💯💯💯💯💯💯💯
