Re: Macbarbie07 General Thread
I wonder if she would still make youtube videos even if her outside businesses (Aero, red carpet gigs, etc) start really picking up and becoming more frequent? I was watching a Phillip Defranco vlog/video recently and he was talking about how when youtubers try to leave youtube for other endeavors and then come back they never fully recover their subscription numbers. He specifically mentioned Fred and something about Shane Dawson, but from the beauty community Fafinettex3 is a good example. As well as Elle and Blair - they haven't left completely but their infrequent uploading schedule has definitely caused a shift in their popularity in the community. Point being, there definitely seems to be at least a little truth to his words.

Re: Macbarbie07 General Thread
Good point. that is something I noticed too. It's a huge risk to try to break away from youtube and start a real career because that would mean less time for video making, therefore you start to lose relevency during that time off. I'm sure Bethany has a team of people working behind her thinking of video ideas. So far with her clothing line, she has still been uploading on schedule.blameitonthealtitude wrote:I wonder if she would still make youtube videos even if her outside businesses (Aero, red carpet gigs, etc) start really picking up and becoming more frequent?

Re: Macbarbie07 General Thread
(this is just my opinion! not meant to be taken badly or anything) I noticed that people are pointing out her "cutesy" personality. I mean, yes she is old enough to mature, but what if that IS her real personality? I used to have a friend who shared Bethany's personality. We were best friends until she had to move, but that was literally her personality despite her age. Still, even if she's acting cutesy to appeal to her young audience, that's still a smart move in the business. Pre-teens would be her target audience, so she might as well relate to them. I remember acting like her when I was going through that stage.
I guess some people are different.
I'm really happy for Bethany and her success! Bethany is getting pretty well known compared to when I last saw her. Especially since she now has her own tour bus.

Re: Macbarbie07 General Thread
This is such a silly thing to say. Her first videos were FOUR years ago. People change a lot in four years. Especially if you consider that four years ago she was 13/14 and still very young. Is your personality still the same as it was when you were 13/14? I know mine sure isn't.Username wrote:^thats not her real personality.

Re: Macbarbie07 General Thread
Exactly. And you could argue that the more comfortable she became with making videos, the more her personality came out. None of us can really know for sure unless we know her in person.clandestine wrote:This is such a silly thing to say. Her first videos were FOUR years ago. People change a lot in four years.

Re: Macbarbie07 General Thread
I don't even think her personality is that bad tbh. She just seems cute and bubbly to me. I'd rather be around that than some depressed mess. She seems nice too, which is way better than all these ~snarky bitches that need to get the hell of Tumblr.
Re: Macbarbie07 General Thread
When was she in teen vogue? I don't follow any of her social media accounts so I miss a lot of stuff haha

Re: Macbarbie07 General Thread
she acted normally just 2 years ago (when she was 16) before she became super popular. She certainly wasn't camera shy at the time when she still had a relatively large following.

I've been watching her since she started making videos. She didn't start doing the immature, cutesy act until she exploded in popularity around early 2012.

Re: Macbarbie07 General Thread
She'll continue doing that act as long as her viewers love it. That way of acting means money. It works for her. I think it is in part her real personality but she really turns it up for the camera. In reality, I think she is mature and serious about most things. What stuck out to me was in that interview where she said she only wanted things on her channel that felt organic. She doesn't even use words as big as organic on her channel and it's not that big of a word. I think she's really smart but just shows a cutesy side of herself on camera.

Re: Macbarbie07 General Thread
I used to watch Bethany a couple years ago but stopped. Just started watched again and I missed it! She is pretty creative with her videos and her positivity really makes it better!
Re: Macbarbie07 General Thread
I don't really watch her videos but I like her. She seems to like YouTube and care about it while a lot of others stopped putting much effort into their channels. I'm glad she's trying to become even more successful with this Aero deal. Her personality is childish but that is what makes her channel successful because her audience likes that. She'll grow out of it eventually.
Re: Macbarbie07 General Thread
Double posting but that picture she took for Teen Vogue... Maybe it's the combination of her facial expression, not much going on in the background, and the fact it looks a bit like an Instagram filter.

Re: Macbarbie07 General Thread
I think she is very pretty girl, but in the youtube react videos.... she isn't. I do not know what is happening, bad angle? Bad make-up? I seriously didn't regonize her first.

Re: Macbarbie07 General Thread
Is it just me or she didn't promote some stuff to her spring clothing line she mention she would?
http://m.etonline.com/fashion/143057_Be ... hing_Line/
In this video she mention a army green top, wedges, and a bralette+skirt set which I haven't seen in the store (yeah I went to aero today to check out her line)
