She's one of the worst on YouTube imo. Such a rude and snooty samey bore. I'm still sub'd but literally have not watched a video of hers in months as the cringe is too strong
Nothing in the present. She mentioned in her 'Draw my life' video that she was bullied when she was younger. She's never done a 'sometimes it all gets too much' Zoella-style crying video, which is good because I find those videos very attention-seeking. She did do a video when she lost her dog Woof, which seems to be the only major misfortune that's happened to her during her time on YouTube. Obviously I would never wish bad things on anyone but I see what you mean, she definitely creates the image of having a perfect life from her internet presence.Presence wrote:I have a question for all of you who have been watching Fleur for years:
This woman seems to have an extremely charmed life--the money, the loving family, the gorgeous and doting husband, opportunities, etc. I happened to catch a vlog in which she was showing off the Airbnb she and her family were staying at in South Africa. I realized, I'm a bit jealous of her life and the ease and luxury that come with it.
So make me feel, guys. No one's life can be that perfect. Besides not having the greatest style sense and not being the most charismatic person, is there anything about Fleur or her life that sucks? Is there anything that she never talks about, but that has become public knowledge, that gives some evidence her life is stressful or a struggle? Anything?
Plus what other job is going to allow her to have the freedom she's grown accustomed to? In any other job she'd be stuck at a desk 8-5, M-F, 2 weeks vacation a year etc....no more shopping in the middle of the day, no more "meetings", sponsored trips or the endless supply of new launches for makeup, skincare, haircare and clothes. All while being paid hundreds of thousands of pounds a year! She's going to try and hold on as long as people watch her videos and companies send her stuff.CourtneyShane wrote:I think she is not interested enough in being a housewife/fur mother, but without YT, what else will she do? Honestly? She has clearly garnered skills doing what she does, but I do not see her translating this to a company for branding or PR purposes that do not directly benefit her. She likes what she does, but she LOVES that attention.
