What’s up guys, it’s Sussan Mourad with Clevver News, and James Charles has made a
full 180-recovery since 2019’s YouTuber Dramageddon, as he finally addresses the feud
involving Tati, Shane and Jeffree in the form of a trending TikTok video.
James Charles has been living his best life since making a major comeback following Tati
Westbrook’s “Bye Sister” YouTube video trying to expose him for many harmful accusations
that have since been proven untrue.
It was then when James underwent heavy public scrutiny, lost many brand deals and followers.
I know you all know the timeline of events here, but as a quick refresher, just about
a year later, this past June, Tati issued another response to the drama that shook the
YouTube scene.
In her video, she publicly apologized to James and called out Shane Dawson and Jeffree Star
for manipulating her into thinking certain things about James and allegedly encouraged
her to put out her video.
In the 40-minute video titled “BREAKING MY SILENCE…”
Tati revealed that she and James have spoken and sorted out their issues in private, as
she revealed that they agreed they would wait until the perfect time to share her side of
the story.
She said QUOTE, “I did not make my video because of vitamins.
I made it as a result of all the poisonous lies fed to me by Shane Dawson and Jeffree
Star.
James, I am so sorry I allowed myself to be poisoned and weaponized against you.”
Tati also admitted that, “Yes, I'm a grown woman.
I'm smart.
I can usually spot deceit and manipulation a mile away.
But my guard was down from being heartbroken and I allowed myself to be worked by Shane,
Jeffrey and others.”
Jeffree touched on Dramageddon part 2 without getting into the details in his video titled
‘Doing What’s Right’, while also apologising to James.
Shane recorded himself on an Instagram live, as he was watching Tati’s video, denying
what Tati had to say about him and Jeffree.
While Jeffree has continued to post his regularly scheduled programming, Shane has since gone
radio silent on social media.
James however, appears to be thriving since Tati exposed her truth behind the story, and
he’s officially broken his silence on the matter, all thanks to a trending TikTok video.
On Sunday, James took part in TikTok’s “Bulletproof” trend, where the song by La Roux plays in
the background and the user shares a difficult moment they overcame.
With the song blaring behind him, James wrote, “You think you can hurt my feelings?
I lost 3 million subscribers in one day & cancelled over something I didn’t actually do.”
He also captioned the video with, “2019 was a… dark place.”
Since Tati’s video, fans have been rooting for James as he continued to pick up the pieces
that resulted in his public image being shattered and a massive loss of followers.
Many commented on James’ TikTok video praising him for an epic comeback.
Many loyal followers claimed that they never believed the claims surrounding James, like
one fan who wrote, “Biggest flex is that I never unsubscribed.”
Another fan commented, “And now you’re killing it!
And that’s on what?
Real talent that can withstand drama.”
Many fans also claimed that James “won” this trend, like this person, who said, “Oh
gosh no one can top this one.
I felt so bad for you it wasn’t fair!”
Since then, James has gained back his followers, continues to take part in epic makeup collaborations
and is finding his voice within the TikTok scene.
Fans might recall that Trisha Paytas also took part in the “Bulletproof” trend,
utilizing its whole meaning to seemingly reignite her feud with David Dobrik.
Last week, she shared a video to TikTok, writing, “You think you can hurt my feelings?
I was friends with David Dobrik.”
Fans didn’t exactly take this one as well as they did with James, as many came at her
for still talking about David when he’s clearly moved on, and how he quote, “carried
her career.”
Whatever the reason for taking part in this trend, we’re just happy to see that James
has landed back on his feet and that sister is seriously thriving!
