Social media is talking about Jeffree Star because he relentlessly dragged a fan on twitter.
I knew jeffree star was a savage but damn, this is a whole other level of shook.
Get ready for some steaming hot tea, right now on IO.
What is happening friends, happy Friday, this is IO, the news channel that talks about t
he biggest viral news stories on the internet.
By the way, I’m charlotte, hit that subscribe and follow us on instagram.
Jeffree star is one of the most popular youtubers and beaty gurus on this platform.
He has 13 million subscribers and He was on the 2018 forbes list of highest paid youtubers.
He’s not only famous for having his own makeup line and youtube channel, jeffree star
is someone that is constantly involved in controversy.
By now, most of us are used to it.
Its like ohhh who did jeffree star drag today, lets check his twitter, but a recent interaction
with a fan may have gone a little too far, even for jeffree star.
Yeah im a poet and I definitely know it.
So all of this began after jeffree congratulated someone for getting a job at Ulta Beauty.
Ulta beauty is kind of the up and coming competition with Sephora.
Its also the store that has jeffree star’s collaboration with morphe.
The tweet said, I just got hired at ulta beauty, my first day is Sunday which happens to be
the release of the jeffree star morphe brushes into ulta stores.
To which jeffree replied, omg congrats babe.
Seems innocent enough right?
Well then, a fan tried to use the viral tweet as an opportunity to promote their makeup
work, so they replied to his tweet with one of their pictures.
It had nothing to do with the actual tweet, she didn’t take the opportunity to congratulate
the person.
Now I know that a lot of people do this.
They post their work and spam their pages on popular posts because it will get seen
by people scrolling through the comments and replies.
I guess this person constantly spams jeffree’s posts because he replied with this tweet.
You don’t need to whore yourself out on every single post.
I’m congratulating someone on a job.
Why the are you making this about oyu.
Bye.
The fan, named Keanu, responded and said.
Not a good feeling to be talked about like that by someone you’ve looked up to for
years.
To which jeffree responded.
Maybe you will learn some respect now that someone was honest with you.
I never had to use anyone to get to where I am.
I was congratulating someone on achieving something and you made it about yourself…cant
relate.
So the tweets were deleted but the fan decided to repost them and tell her side of the story.
She said.
I have been a fan of jeffree star for years.
Spent hundreds of my own hard earned minimum wage dollars on his products.
And to be humiliated in such a way doesn’t feel good.
I go to college, work and do makeup.
Just trying to make something out of myself.
I am crying.
Yeah this is a tricky one guys.
On the one hand I would understand if jeffree was getting annoyed about her spamming.
On the other, I feel like he could have been a little more careful with his words, and
I’m not the only person who feels that way.
The majority of twitter users were pretty disappointed with how jeffree handled this
situation.
Other twitter users came forward with their own terrible experiences with jeffree star.Josh
reade responded with, he did the same to me.
Inboxed me abuse and then blocked me so I couldn’t have my say.
What is going on, when you spend your hard earned cash on someone you believe in you
deserve respect back.
Who do you think was right in this situation guys?
Let me know your thoughts in the comments below as well as how you feel about people
spamming popular posts with self promotion.
Anyways friends, that’s all I have for you on this.

Dirtroad bmx – your voice is so comforting.

Ayers live tv – im not being mean.
Are you white or albino.
You’re just very pale.
Like are you a white girl who is wearing white makeup.
Ummm if I were an albino I would have blond hair.
The lights are super bright so they make me look a lot paler than I am.
I am however a ginger, and gingers aren’t really expected to be tanned.
Steve Hudson – dam this girl is hot what kind of jeans are those.
The vintage kind.
