Most of the apology seemed like she was passively shoving the blame onto someone else. "I'm so sorry that so many of you feel so let down by this." - You guys are to blame for how you feel about this, Saying I'm sorry I let you down would be better. It's easier to accept someone's apology when they take responsibility for their involvement. It's like that whole SimplyKenna thing. I do't believe this is entirely her fault, but she's making it worse for herself by taking no responsibility whatsoever.MissDiamandis wrote:Mean tweets aside, I rolled my eyes so hard at her addressing the advent calendar matter.

Her body language when she said this! Pretty much pouting, scrunched up shoulders, looking down. That just screams, "This is a half-assed apology and I really don't have anything to be sorry for."
"A lot of people think I'm doing it for the money, and that makes me SO sad... That's not who I am, that's not why I do this."
Enlighten me then, Zoe. Why do you slap your name on cheap ass, overpriced products that earn you a ton of profit?
"This is just a rubbish situation that hopefully a lot of people can learn from."
No mention of you learning from it, of course, or trying to have more awareness next time. It's everyone else's fault!

Nah, #fakenews I think. It's only been tweeted by one person @cbbcast - nothing from Madame Tussauds. Looks completely fake to me.dsamantha wrote:For real??

Yeah, the Mme Tussauds thing seems fake. Things don't move that fast.
But The Sun picked up that tweet story.

probably both are the real zoe. example, she used to be into that punk gothic style but now she looks completely different. you cant question WHICH IS THE REAL ZOE because people change over the years. it doesn't mean she was being fake in the past just because now she enjoys a different style. same with her personality, although i wouldn't say that she's 100% an angel now. i usually dont like zoe but im defending her in this because i feel like i can relate to how she felt. just because someone used to be mean doesnt mean she cant change for the better, even if she's not fully there yet, at least she's trying and at least she's no longer that mean person she used to be and we should be more supportive rather than digging up her past and shove it into her face again.
im pretty sure her management wants those tweets to be gone thus is deleting them.
Puzzling. But ok.

sorry but what is creative about two cookie cutters and confetti? like i'm not the most creative person by any means but surely you can't just pap that off as being creative?? and yeah its understandable saying the retailer picks the price and its not up to her, but if her names on the box being as influential as she is to certain people, you'd think she'd have a bit more say in how much her products costs eh? she'll say/ do anything to not look like the bad guy

Lol but saying something that isn't socially acceptable now...is not a crime.mycupisempty1 wrote:Regarding the old tweets, even though they were from years ago, she was 20-21, legally an adult.
As an adult she was culpable of her actions. And it is not a single case, there are several similar tweets over years. Should we forgive people who committed crimes, because it happened years ago?
Zoe hasn't said anything else that wasn't normative back then. We're close to the same age and believe me social media was feral and ruthless. It's not acceptable to talk trash like that anymore unless you're on Facebook arguing with your family like a redneck lol
Saying something uncultured and ignorant is not a crime. If you think it's acceptable to find old tweets and online finger prints and use them against her now then you have to be perfectly accepting for me to do it to you as well.
This woman isn't a role model and shouldn't be held accountable as if she's in a political position. She's a YouTuber ffs lol

Mumsnet also have a couple of threads about Zoella on their AIBU page. Quite glad parents have got wind of this and are basically saying what we are saying over on GG. I think it’s good people are getting awareness of how manipulative you tubers have become on pushing products onto their young audiences.magucken wrote:Yeah, the Mme Tussauds thing seems fake.

Reducing the calendar is interesting because even at half price everyone knows this calendar is full of tat, so you don’t really as a parent want to give your kid a gift that everyone thinks is a pile of cheap rubbish and a rip off. No parents wants to give that as a gift apart from the fools that will buy anything their kid wants! Let’s face it there is no easy PR manoeuvre to resolve this. Boots will be pretty angry if they can’t shift the stock as well......

And how would you like people to state their opinions in the future? "Hello, I too have sinned, but Zoe's tweets really are mean"?

So Zoe is in hiding, instead of standing tall and apologising like a grown up, no tweets, no Instagram stories it's all quiet from zoella.

Cue for Zoe to post a picture with Tyler and Marksarwah17 wrote:<a rel="nofollow" href="http://www.mirror.co.uk/3am/celebrity-n ... c-11523389"
I wonder if this shitstorm has anything to do with things changing at gleam - before whatever she did they somehow brushed it off. HW, the calendar.. it just seems like moronic steps for business-minded people. It's as if pushing Zoe off the pedestal was intentional.

I'd be a hypocrite if I was to refer to everyone as a bitch and not myself but I admitted that I am a bitch too. Clearly anyone who uses this site has that side to them. There's a lot of people on here who don't seem to realise that. We're going off topic here so that's all I have to say.
