A short guide to the fight that cost YouTube star James Charles more than 2 million subscribers (and counting)

Internet personality James Charles arrives for the 2019 Met Gala at the Metropolitan Museum of Art on May 6 in New York. By Abby Ohlheiser Abby Ohlheiser Reporter covering digital culture Email Bio Follow May 13 at 6:09 PM Earlier this month, James Charles walked the red carpet of the Met Gala wearing a chain shirt made of safety pins by designer Alexander Wang. It was a privilege reserved for the famous, and he was famous because of YouTube.

In April, when Charles promoted Sugar Bear on his Instagram account, Westbrook saw it as a betrayal. She had been established in beauty YouTube when Charles came on the scene a few years ago. Westbrook had promoted him and helped him find representation. Now, it seemed as though he had no loyalty to her.

She also accuses Charles of using his fame to “manipulate someone’s sexuality” — apparently a reference to an incident in which Charles, who identifies as gay, pursued a straight man.She added: “All of us are somehow forgetting that his audience is made up of 12- to 14-year-olds." Charles gave it his best shot. “Um, I’m sorry for everything that is going on, for everything that I put you through over the past few weeks,” he says, addressing Westbrook and her husband. “I am so disappointed in myself that I ruined a relationship that did mean so much to me.”

Twitter debates if James Charles or Laura Lee had the worst apology after Tati Westbrook drama“I have a long way to go and that’s okay. I am going to keep learning and growing to be the best version of me that I can be.” All this because he decided to use another brand of something, as opposed to someone else’s? Holy hell, he’s got nothing to apologize for then (unless there’s more to it I don’t know, which is probably the case).
