the truth about being an influencer…what no one talks about (vlogmas day 13)

[@thegalwholovespurple]

I feel like you’re one of the very few influencers who really nurtures your relationship with us followers. You rarely see them go to such lengths to help us understand things or see their perspective. So us getting these sit down no filter conversation’s means so much and feels so special!

[@LaurenGiraldo]

[@Mariangelagonz]

I could sit and listen to Lauren speak for hours. It feels like a podcast. Love you girl 🫶🏼

[@2008MYMY]

I second this!!!❤

[@chelsibolanos1734]

You’re the only influencer that talks about topics like this.. this is why we love you

[@DilaraKai]

You’re literally the only influencer who doesn’t brag or doesn’t let feel people bad. I follow you since your vine and i didn’t stop watching you ever since! KEEP UP THE GOOD WORK QUEEN. I feel so happy seeing you growing and having ur own brand🥹🥹🥹🥹

[@gretchenarlinghaus6971]

You’re honestly still one of the real ones. You don’t put on an act to look a certain way. It’s honestly refreshing

[@AnessaNT]

You absolutely have a positive impact on your viewers and a huge reason is the fact that you’re real. Authenticity is rare girlfriend

[@cassieclavien]

Lauren you’ve been killing vlogmas this year! I feel like every video is like a FaceTime call with you.

[@diannajohnson2632]

you’re absolutely killing the game and you’re doing it in your own way and we wouldn’t wanna see it done any other way. lauren’s way or the highway, love you girl ❤️‍🔥

[@sxreezy]

love how you’re always so vocal and transparent about the struggles of being an influencer 💕

[@kassandraayalaa]

The fact that you just opened up about how it is to live an influencer life is so real

[@boolovesyou143]

You articulate very well Lauren. And that’s a straight FLEX! To be able to breakdown the digital/social-media world. The good. The bad and ugly. So appreciative of your honesty QUEEN 👸🏻

[@analisaj8585]

I can totally see how being an influencer is like a popularity contest but I think the more organic and real you are the more followers/fans you'll attract and I think that's why you're perfect for this and so successful because you've always been so real and yourself! I feel like your fan base can truly relate to you and feel connected to you

[@claudiaroman5981]

I love how she always mentions how grateful she is

[@brazenfranzen]

This positive and kind community is a reflection of how genuine Lauren is ❤

[@kbraxt1419]

Your authenticity is what keeps your audience coming back. Would love a podcast

[@Luisa_Ribeiro]

Ugh, we LOVE an honest, self-aware queen! You honestly passed the podcast audition! It's a yes from me.❤

[@ImaniJoi]

This was legit. Thank you. Because other influencers are so condescending when they “give advice” about this. You gave real advice in such an encouraging way!!

[@Kelly_Jenkins]

Lauren, you are no influencer , you are family and we love you.

[@LaurenGiraldo]

😫🥹🫶🏼

[@TheOlivePants]

She's like the prima we wish was our sibling

[@promisetowne6839]

this !!!!!!

[@alyssahochstatter]

You attract what you are queen! That’s why this community is so authentic, positive, and uplifting! Not a coincidence 🫶🏼😘

[@ashleeghurl]

You’re really the only KZbinr I’ve seen that talks to us like a legit friend. So glad I found your channel especially for all these vlogmas vids 🫶🏽

[@LaurenGiraldo]

Thank you so much!!

[@kaylaschmidt7697]

I feel like other “influencers” don’t make videos like this because theyre scared of negative feedback from the people that don’t realize how hard you guys really do work! Thank you for being real from day one 🫶🏽

[@AlyssaPoplaski]

I love how candid and honest this whole conversation was. Social media has completely changed the world we live in today and I feel like our generations are still the guinea pigs.

[@leahlin306]

Lauren is so authentic, I forget she’s an influencer sometimes 😂

[@Sara-ii7bz]

Thank you for being so real and vulnerable. It’s fascinating to know the bts!

[@jennelljuarez109]

Props to you for being an influencer and opening up about all of these things that are so personal. It’s so easy to be fooled by the appearance that everything is sunshine and rainbows as an influencer but there’s really sooo much mental, emotional, & physical work that goes into this. Congratulations for all of your hard work & determination over these years, love you🤍

[@MarissaWiggs]

As someone pursuing this type of career being present on social media, thank you for speaking on things a lot of people don’t ❤️ this is why I love your channel so much

[@LaurenGiraldo]

You're so welcome!

[@Jay4eva]

Same sameeee !!

[@sophiamorales6290]

you’re so freaking authentic and honest, I’m living for it. ur honestly one of the best and genuine influencers on any platform love u Lauren❤️

[@user-gaaby2415]

i didn’t grow up around a lot of girls so watching you helps me get in touch with my femininity. thank u for ur service queen

[@suzetteiracheta]

Yes make a part 2 to this video. I like how Lauren is so real and raw with us, I love the talks of insecurity, thoughts, the influencer business and just being vulnerable. I like how she keeps it real with us

[@BethGould]

As a small youtuber/content creator I feel like I NEEDED this thank you so much ❤

[@sxreezy]

I honestly appreciate these videos so much you’re one of the only influencers who has always been transparent and vocal about the struggles of being an “influencer” love you queen 🫶

[@EgypttBurns]

The fact that this video has only been up for one minute and im already in class watching this rn😭🫶 and honestly low key would love a good pod to listen to while doing a 12-3-30😏

[@laurenomeally1058]

It takes so much commitment, time, logical planning, & trying to keep up with what people are watching now! & we want you to know that we appreciate all you do, Lauren. You keep it real & glam & that’s all we could ever want. You’re amazing.

[@ciarageoghegan4916]

You can really tell how intelligent Lauren is by the way she not only articulates her opinions, but by the outlook she has on life and her choice to view things certain ways

[@vliciouss]

I’ve always felt this way about her as well

[@sm6562]

You literally helped me create boundaries with family and friends without feeling guilty.

[@LaurenGiraldo]

!!!!!! Wow incredible

[@LeaNezz]

Same

[@mariamungarro1184]

i love how your style of being and influencer is so different and comforting. people like you deserve so much respect & appreciation

[@emilymarie5435]

I feel like you bring so much more to the table than being an influencer there’s so many big sis talks that we get from you ❤

[@vanessalaraleyva1882]

Let’s be real we’re all here for Lua’s 3 sec appearances. She’s the main character ✨

[@Jay4eva]

Agreed 😂😂

[@karishmatilak4590]

I’ve been watching your videos for years and they always brighten my day when you post❤️ So excited for the rest of vlogmas season🎄

[@TheUnderratedMama]

I felt like this is a convo I’d be having with a girl friend hanging out doing nothing! Loved it so much

[@diaravassallondiaye]

miss lauren, so consistent, so engaging, so happy

[@beagarciavel]

It's almost as if being an "influencer" means these unattainable/un-relatable expectations for people. But you're literally the one person that I can relate to the most, whether it's style, relationship advice, hot takes, etc.

[@naomi.marcel]

From someone trying to break into the KZbin influencer world I can agree that it is difficult trying to grow a following from 0😅 It can be very discouraging but I appreciate you bringing awareness and talking about this ❤

[@michellehinojosaa]

ver tu vlogmas ha sido mi tradición por AÑOS, sin ellos no sabría que ya viene navidad 👋

[@eyeamjona]

personality wise, i dont think everyone can just be an influencer. it takes a lot of energy and commitment. so i like seeing influencers who truly like what they do, i love that for you!

[@shaniakate_]

i don't watch as many influencers as I used to. I think your sitdowns and you keeping it real with us has really kept me coming back and always so excited to watch a video from you. love you!

[@renee6470]

I feel like a HUGE reason why I watch certain channels more than others anymore is simply due to their own unique personality and I think that’s what really keeps people coming back is just being yourself and being genuine. Sure, the type of content can play into that too but personality really keeps me from a viewer perspective - despite new channels coming up all the time.

[@mimilamar5662]

Damn I could never mentally handle being an influencer. Yall really go through it, but you also make such a positive impact and bring comfort to so many people!

[@stephaniea.5809]

I genuinely appreciate how real you are in every single one of your videos, even though I’ve never met you in-person, I feel like we’ve been lifelong friends

[@sophiamanesiotis5972]

its so crazy because I remember Lauren making vines after school and how much has changed since both in my life and watching her grow as well. its such a cool thing to remember how things were and how much you've grown Lauren! love you!

[@missmeliarenee]

bestie i’m SO reserved and i love that about you like i really sensed it, i feel like the youtubers i connect the most with are introverted

[@christiamae25]

My Christmas wish is for Lauren to keep vlogging her day to day life cause honestly I’m living for it. Truly the only KZbinr I keep coming back for. 🫶🥰

[@taisperalta1820]

you are definitely one of the best influencers just on your realness and how genuine you are. your supporters are a pure reflection of what you give!

[@shaylamathews5934]

genuinely feel like you are one of the ONLY influencers who keeps is so raw and honest all the time

[@SabrinaCarrie08]

I really love how just raw and transparent you are. It genuinely is so refreshing. Love this style but also love your vlogs/ & travel!

[@saraalsaad6209]

Since vine i’m a loyal supporter 🤍🤍 your such a lighthearted person and i feel so relatable to u! And what i love about you as an influencer, you don’t talk sh!t about other influencers and u don’t cause any drama.

[@hannah.mariel]

even if it’s a sit down video it’s not boring at all !! it’s like talking to your big sister slay

[@laurensimoncelli2484]

Love when I’m doing 12-3-30 with a new video everyday during vlogmas! its like you’re there with me! I’m loving it! 💕

[@oliviaflores2123]

This gives me a sense of comfort, sometimes you say things that I needed to hear at that moment!! I LOVE YOU QUEEN🫶

[@jennifera2259]

Thank you for always being authentic! We love and appreciate you Lauren ❤️

[@stephaniearroyo.m]

These are the conversations we need to hear about being a creator and social media! I truly appreciate you , bringing tea up and the truth about being/becoming an influencer, it goes to show that social media can make it look a certain way and not really show us the truth 💗 keep on being you queen !

[@kaylascruggs]

i literally love how every time i watch one of your vlog it feels like i’m on face time with a best friend!! You keep it so real and always tell the truth and I stay sliving for you and ur videos

[@brandy9013]

Lauren’s vlogmas is what I look forward to watch everyday after work!💗shes one of the few influencers truly who opens up to their followers about their real life emotions and thoughts!

[@emilyhall8626]

Honestly Lauren is so authentic. Like you can always expect the absolute truth from her!!! ❤️❤️

[@melrocchini]

The fact that your so real and genuine, when I watch your videos I feel like I’m listening to a friend talk to me ❤

[@camilaagomez]

Was having a shitty day but seeing your videos made my day better. Love you girl! Keep shining!

[@user-zp4xd8ih8i]

Literally the highlight of my day is drinking coffee in the morning and watching Lauren’s clog as vids❤ don’t want it to be overrrr

[@terrianasummers9580]

You’re seriously the only influencer that still feels relatable love you

[@emilymacdonald8719]

I really love how different you are during vlogmas (and any other time) than other influencers. Keeping it real 🥹🫶🏻

[@paige.ciz_22]

I love how raw you are in your videos. I have watched you for awhile and it is one of the consistent things with your channel. it is so refreshing to watch real people just document their life and be upfront and honest. you are so relatable because of it and i appreciate you

[@angelicadiaz8914]

never forgetting how sad i was over losing princess lauren when vine died and then the depression was cured when you started this channel like omg idk what id do without you❤

[@GraceAbney]

i don’t remember how long i’ve been subscribed, before henny at least definitely during the vine days! its been forever and i’ve always love how honest you are thank you for telling us the truth being real!

[@KikiLiving]

As someone who also creates content online but without a significant following right now I relate to every single point you mentioned! Creating online is very paradoxical now a days, but for many people being creative is who we are so we keep going, and thats what it comes down to. Thank you for sharing your thoughts 💕

[@kassidybaker9921]

The way imma need vlogmas to never end.. I love you never stop being you

[@donnacalderone4]

Loving the longer format realness you are my fav vlogger these days. Feeling ready for the holidays with your vlogmas 💜

[@nawal2605]

u know what? i believe this is one of the reasons why u r special, u always talk to us as if we are hanging with u👏🏻

[@lalala5653]

I started watching you on KZbin a little later in life and feel lucky to have found your KZbin channel, Princess Lauren!! 🥰💗

[@stephaniemorales2496]

When we see the glam (aka PR boxes/sponsor trips) it’s early to forgot the “cons” of being an influencer. Thank you for your honestly. You are a social queen who’s adapted so gracefully 🤗

[@chiaracannon4186]

Girl a tiktok I posted hit 34.5mil and I’ve been paralyzed ever since. I think you just shook me out of my shock and inspired me to be consistent again. Thank you for your awesome content and showing up for us like this 💗✨p.s. you’re more than half way thru vlogmas, keep pushing!!! 💪

[@carolinacampos726]

I’m loving your honesty and personal takes on random things these last vlogmases!!

[@nkkcole5182]

Lauren you’re so beyond genuine! Thank you for really being intentional with your content and your relationship with your viewers ❤

[@valeriacarrillo3782]

[@scarlettmeredith3919]

Lauren girl!!! Honestly these videos are getting me through these cold wintery days🤍 you’re smashing it❄️❄️❄️

[@KristieMartin]

Spilling the TEA honnayyyy I’m ready

[@yeseniarosa912]

You are the definition of an influencer. You keep it 💯 on the good and the bad…we love the realness!

[@mianicole410]

I would actually sit here and listen for 5 years of all the reasons why you love what you do! It’s a blessing to love what you do that much! Not many people can say that, so HYPE THAT SHIT UP GURL!!!!

[@oliviasamels9176]

You are my KZbin !!! I literally I let go on KZbin to see if you uploaded ! Love you happy holidays !💕

[@lesleyann4142]

I see other KZbinrs try to get others attention and I know you do it too, but you just feel so natural and comforting. You’re literally a real life KZbinr that’s like straight up!🤍Also you are me always on the floor LMAO😭

[@maddiecampisi7034]

Totally totally totally understand trying to stand out and be different. Not trying to make your personal experience less than but I feel like everyone kind of deals with this in some aspect and it seriously is hard. I do spray tanning and although my craft speaks for itself and how good I am can have someone wanting me to spray tan them over another artist it really is hard to outwardly show why you're different, why people should come to you, watch you, etc. Loved this vid and honestly how funny it is to say but how raw and real you like fr

[@oliviia_bakerr]

As I said, you are one of the few vlogmas’s I follow because you’re so genuine. It’s so appreciated feels like OG KZbin days 🤎
