Speaker A
The importance of mental health and the conversation surrounding it have been less stigmatized in the social media era. Gabby Hannah is a social media influencer with millions of subscribers and followers who has been very open about her struggles with mental health.
Speaker A
However, she has also been exposed over the years for being a pathological liar, manipulative, sociopathic monster, unnecessarily playing the victim. All of these people for what they've done to me and for them to be tweeting right now I'm playing the victim. I am
Speaker A
the [ __ ] victim and acting out in desperation for attention. Last week, she posted a series of about 200 TikToks where she appears to be experiencing a full-blown manic episode. This obviously raised a ton of concern, but there are
Speaker A
some people out there that would suggest that Gabby is the kind of person who would pretend to have a full-on psychotic break if it meant that she could get people to feel bad for her and give her attention. Today, we are going to
Speaker A
dive into the history of Gabby Hannah and see if her manipulation tactics are working or if she needs some serious help. Stay hydrated. In June of 2012, the world got introduced to a new social media app called Vine.
Speaker A
Nobody could have predicted how popular six-second videos would become and how much creativity and effort would be put into making these short masterpieces. Vine's popularity skyrocketed less than one year after it launched, and although this graph makes it look like it fell
Speaker A
off fast, everyone who lived during that time knew it held cultural relevance for at least two to three years. The level of fame these Viners reached was something that the world had not seen since MySpace celebrities seven years earlier.
Speaker A
The three most famous female Viners in order were Lele Pons, Brittany Furlan, and Gabby Hannah. With nearly 5 million followers, Gabby's third Vine ever uploaded had the caption "How to Be a Narcissist," which could have defined the next decade of her career. A lot of her
Speaker A
humor that made her popular could be summarized as a 20-something girl who is ironically self-obsessed and constantly admits her need for validation from others. Okay, so if I'm not funny, then how do you explain all my likes and followers and
Speaker A
retweets? And oh right, that's a girl. I can't really rely on humor to get followers, so if you help me out, I will fully blow your mind because I'm thirsty. Aside, you're getting naked for a revine.
Speaker A
Is that what you're looking for? Or when she was feeling herself, there wouldn't be any irony. The smallest things make me so happy. I think that's why I stayed with my ex-boyfriend for so long. 21 texts, bro, you're not thirsty and
Speaker A
dehydrated. Everyone thinks I got my 19k based solely on my looks. Wait, you guys think I'm that pretty? Some people loved her confidence; others took it for arrogance. Since the very beginning, she joked about her being crazy and toxic,
Speaker A
insinuating that these traits made her cute and quirky. Of course, I trust you. Don't be silly. Now give me your password. I love waking up next to you, babe. They fell asleep on the left and woke up on
Speaker A
the right. Where the [ __ ] did you go last night, babe? Your Vine is so funny. Now block every single one of these thirsty who liked it. Oh, and she liked to sing [Music]. Whenever she got hate from people online,
Speaker A
she addressed it. I'm getting really tired of all these girls calling me over because I have my boobs in the shot. Deal with it. Film like this, is this better? I have a big nose. I'm a huge [ __ ]. I'm
Speaker A
not funny, I'm unoriginal, and I'm ugly. Her haters saw her as a narcissist, ironically pretending like she wasn't, and her fans admired her quirky touch. My butt and buy me pizza. Rare XD Tumblr girl personality. During her peak, she was
Speaker A
getting two to four million views on every single post. Now pursuing a social media influencer career was still a new concept. Most of these creators were not able to monetize their massive audiences. Vine didn't pay them, and
Speaker A
sponsors were not keen on influencer marketing. If you want to feel your best, you gotta look the best, which is why my friends at Manscaped are hooking you up with everything you need. They sent me the perfect package 4.0, and it's filled
Speaker A
with the good stuff. First up, the Lawn Mower 4.0 trimmer. This is my go-to trimmer that I've been using for the past six months. No cuts, no nicks on my face or down below. I like to take a disposable magic mat they give me and
Speaker A
throw it in the sink so nothing gets stuck in the drain, or you can even use your trimmer in the shower since it's waterproof. When you're done, throw it on the wireless charging station. Boom, you get 90 minutes on a full charge. They
Speaker A
also hooked it up with the Shears 2.0, which is a four-piece essential grooming kit. I need to trim my nails at least two times per week. I even tried filing them for the first time, and I like it. Plus,
Speaker A
for a limited time only, you can get the anti-chafing boxer briefs, which are genuinely some of the most comfortable underwear I've ever worn. I even tried to use the Weed Whacker to trim my nose hairs. It tickled, but it worked pretty
Speaker A
well. Do yourself a favor and head to Manscaped.com to get 20% off plus free international shipping plus two free gifts when you use promo code PATRICKCC at checkout. So if they weren't doing meet and greet tours around the country, they
Speaker A
were looking to another digital medium to get paid. YouTube. For everyone suggesting I make a YouTube channel, I'm flattered. I really am, but I can only be funny for six seconds at a time. Well, turns out she made a YouTube channel
Speaker A
anyways. The Vine to YouTube pipeline started around 2014. A lot of Viners struggled in the beginning because keeping people's attention for six seconds versus multiple minutes is drastically different. However, Gabby was one of the success stories. The 24-year-
Speaker A
old started uploading vlogs, makeup tutorials, and her famous storytime videos. Her fans admired her charisma, bubbly and silly personality while also being able to laugh at herself and point out her own flaws. She seemed balanced but knew how to exaggerate her stories
Speaker A
in the perfect way. This is one of those stories. I try to avoid making videos about people, but this story is so out of control that I just need to share it. Within a year, she went from 32,000 subscribers to 700,000
Speaker A
subscribers. Gabby had a seemingly endless archive of shitty situations that she turned into stories for YouTube. I think we can all agree that storytime YouTubers tend to stretch the truth to make the story more interesting and exciting, which basically means they get
Speaker A
rewarded for lying. This usually leads to a blurred line between what is real and what is fake. Then they can't even remember their own lies. But maybe it's not that big of a deal since it's all entertainment. However, her first public
Speaker A
controversy came to light from these videos. I'll admit this situation does seem insignificant, but the way she handled it really set the tone for her future. The Gabby Show YouTube comedian caught stealing all her jokes. This viral Reddit post contained a
Speaker A
now deleted video showing famous comedians performing jokes and then Gabby essentially stealing them in her videos. One of the most obvious examples of theft was with this Louis CK bit. This is India, right? No, it's not. It's totally another place.
Speaker A
You're not Indians? No. Ah, you're Indians. It's like Christopher Columbus came to this land. He was like, "I found India," and they're like, "Nope, not India." And he's like, "You sure? I'm pretty sure it's India." There you go.
Speaker A
It's not India, and he said India. On top of that, Gabby was also caught stealing various tweets word for word. Most people look at this and think surely a simple apology could fix this, but Gabby uploads a 22-minute video of
Speaker A
uncut rambling where she kinda sorta apologizes but then comes up with a ton of reasons to justify herself. Holy sh, I stole that joke. She then goes on to claim crypto.
Speaker A
original thought but you actually read it somewhere or heard someone else say it in the past i heard it and i said it but i will say that it was not intentional then her response to stealing tweets i didn't steal it i'm not saying that
Speaker A
there isn't a chance that two or three years ago i was rolling through my feet stored it somewhere in my brain and then when i saw it i thought it but even if that happened i never intentionally stole that joke her responses are some
Speaker A
of the most classic manipulation tactics that can be found with one google search i didn't say that and if i did i didn't mean it and if i did you didn't understand it and if you did it's not a
Speaker A
big deal and if it is others have said worse was this all pointless drama probably but what you'll realize is that this becomes a huge trend in gabby's life my new drama that could be resolved easily but gets way overblown to such
Speaker A
heights that people's lives are affected in 2016 vine shut down and gabby focused all of her attention on youtube which was the best decision for her she went from 800 000 to 3 million subscribers in a year she was uploading multiple times
Speaker A
per week and generating millions of views pranks story times rants vlogs it didn't matter what she was doing people were loving it she was nominated for two teen choice awards she was touring around the country lip syncing to
Speaker A
popular music she was collaborating with almost every popular youtuber at the time liza koshy lily singh the dominic show grant rivera but despite all of this monumental success she said 2016 was one of the worst years of her life
Speaker A
she made this claim because of the joke stealing controversy and a video that ricegum made where he dissed her i pass you in subs cause you're struggling to grow i don't think there's anything bigger than your nose but these
Speaker A
criticisms affected her a lot like maybe if i got cancer and died people would leave me alone because all of these really negative things happened to me i was forced to i was forced to find ways to survive now
Speaker A
dealing with the toxicity of internet fame is tough at times for sure but her reaction to the trolls seemed a tad over dramatic and a classic way a 13 year old would respond 2016 was gabby's most successful year by far she was in her
Speaker A
prime she was highly praised and very well liked so for her to feel like it was the worst year of her life and that she was merely trying to survive during it shows that she was very unprepared for how bad things were going to get
Speaker A
this youtuber named dom was playing a game of smasher pass and passed on gabby what would you pass on gabby that's not my type man [ __ ] he's not my type either she's not asian the clip i
Speaker A
just showed you was everything that he said this was her reaction see you in orlando many months later she confronted him about it let's talk about it let's talk you pass me i did so you mean to tell me
Speaker A
that if tonight we got a little bit drunk and i was like hey i'm really interested in you you think you're on my lead i don't say you're out of my league no now you just watched the story unfold
Speaker A
this is how she remembers it today so before i met him he played a game of smash or pass publicly on youtube and when my picture came up he demonized me and demeaned me you know like a misogynistic disgusting
Speaker A
piece of who acts as if he could have a chance with me anyway so at a party he approached me like nothing was wrong and i confronted him about it and i said i didn't like that and he was like oh
Speaker A
conscious games and i said well you're too short for me to almost 100 of what gabby said in that clip was a lie but really just goes to show that she cannot handle the idea that someone may not like her
Speaker A
hey i just challenged you to a live bottle on snapchat would you do it [Applause] why wouldn't you do it no i don't want to okay so update sorry if it looks like i'm crying um ricegum didn't think that
Speaker A
joke was very funny and he hit me in the middle of a party and shattered my phone i can show you that in a sec and let's say because i don't have any photo evidence just like eyewitnesses of
Speaker A
him grabbing me holding me down and hitting me and like twisting my arm he's still shattering my phone i don't want it to seem like i'm like blowing this up and like he like punched me in the face
Speaker A
and like destroyed my phone beyond repair no it's like cracked screen cracked camera scratches and stuff the story went from he hit me to even if he didn't hit me he broke my phone to okay he didn't hit me to okay he did hit me
Speaker A
but it wasn't like that bad but everyone believed gabby and her story at first then a witness came out with a statement that changed the perception and she just kept filming and he just jumped up you know and went to reach for her phone and
Speaker A
she's sitting on the couch he's standing up and it was more of like a tug of war you know them pulling the phone back and forth maybe for a few seconds and then he snatched the phone out of her hand
Speaker A
and slammed on the ground and broke the phone and then walked out but in true ricegum fashion he made another diss track on her that got millions of views gabby was filming him and he didn't like it ricegum admits to grabbing her phone
Speaker A
with both hands and that there was a struggle and he smashed her phone on the ground he also did send her 1100 to right his wrong she was definitely provoking him but he lost his cool so it seems like she was the victim in this
Speaker A
situation but this was a pivotal moment for gabby she tried to make yet another long-winded video exposing rice gum in his lies but he wouldn't engage in a back and forth with her the mass is still sided with rice gum the public
Speaker A
perception was that gabby should not have repeatedly shoved a camera on his face and that ricegum's actions were justified she would say many years later that this situation ruined her because i haven't been able to be myself since like ricegum assaulted me at a
Speaker A
party and everybody sided with him and then he made a music video about it what do you mean i start drama with people like where and i realize it all goes back to ricegum like that situation i never
Speaker A
considered that like starting drama this is like a real disconnect that i had from the rest of the internet i think but gabby kept it pushing she released a poetry book called adult lessons in mid-2017 the book quote touches on a
Speaker A
wide range of topics from funny advice that i can give you and dreams to more serious topics like mental illness and homelessness depression and anxiety i'm not sure how it performed but in 2020 a lot of people made critique videos about
Speaker A
it i don't know why it took three years but i guess when it came out it wasn't popular enough to make a viral video most of her poetry can be summarized as i'm 14 and this is deep but she was
Speaker A
still crushing it on youtube i mean every video she posted he got over 1 million views sometimes even 345 million the love definitely outshined the hate and she had the most valuable and die-hard fan base of them all teenage
Speaker A
girls many of us know that celebrities who have mostly young female fans are the most loyal cult-like and sometimes toxic fan bases of them all so no matter what gabby did they were riding for her gabby had expressed her
Speaker A
love for singing for a long time and she made a ton of videos that showcased her singing abilities [Music] but she never wrote and recorded an official single to release as an artist that changed on september 6 2017 when
Speaker A
she debuted out loud on her youtube channel the song was beloved by her fan base it was a high quality professionally produced single like something you might hear on the radio now at almost 5 million subscribers gabby had a lot to be proud of and now a
Speaker A
seemingly promising music career she dropped another song satellite shortly after then stopped uploading on her main channel for months a cardinal sin for youtubers she continued to vlog on her second channel but would stop posting consistently on there as well we've seen
Speaker A
many youtubers think that they're going to become full-on pop stars or rappers when they have one or two good songs they are quick to abandon their core audience on youtube but it almost never works that way fans get angry fans get
Speaker A
upset that you're no longer feeding them the content that they once loved she would return to her vlog channel for update videos they were a little more raw and uncut but people were suggesting that she was doing it only to promote a
Speaker A
new single and they were probably right her first upload back on her main channel in seven months was a new single honestly which debuted number 21 on the billboard bubbling under hot 100 charts which is basically like the most popular
Speaker A
songs that haven't reached the official hot 100. her second channel turned into a weekly story about how stressful exhausting chaotic and terrible her life is despite yet again being more successful than she has ever been then on october 26 2018 her new song monster
Speaker A
dropped and then she does the genius lyric video which was probably the best way to promote a single on the internet at that time so what if i'm the monster that's been here all along but it did not go her way and the memes started
Speaker A
rolling in [Music] [Applause] i don't think i can accurately explain how massive this meme was but it was everywhere and this is probably how most people discovered gabby it was easily her most viral moment gabby made a reaction video to the memes and arguably
Speaker A
the worst way possible first of all the merch gabby putting desperate for attention on a t-shirt is her way of sticking it to the haters just like her early vines she tries to use these ironic tactics to deflect but you can
Speaker A
still ironically wear a t-shirt that says desperate for attention and be unironically desperate for attention then she tried to prove to the viewer that she could actually sing so when i went in that day i was super sick and
Speaker A
you can ask the genius guys because i was blowing my nose in between every take so i feel like i was really shaky on that i wish i could have just been like in my head that you stayed and i
Speaker A
hope you'll miss me eventually then she reacted to the memes that she thought were funny and she did the thing where she's trying to deflect the criticism that she is inevitably going to face in the comments i'm also so ready for all
Speaker A
the comments of people saying look at her pretending to be laughing she's fake laughing so hard because every time i laugh at a hater people say that i'm fake laughing oh my god wait i need to pretend to be crying for the thumbnail
Speaker A
gabby was seemingly hurt by the memes her trying to predict the criticism that she's going to get is her way of deflecting it or trying to diminish it kind of like when somebody is trying to convince you how much they don't care
Speaker A
about something the more they talk about it the more you start to realize how much they care but this virality actually inspired her to jump back into being a regular youtuber in 2019 she started making cleaning videos which
Speaker A
became a new fan favorite she showed how filthy her living situation got over the past few years and was documenting the process of making a positive change in her life while sharing stories with the audience she wasn't over the top
Speaker A
charismatic but the videos were comforting and realistic it felt like a new beginning for the community she also released her debut album two-way mirror which peaked at number five on the billboard top emerging artist chart on top of a number of new music videos that
Speaker A
generated millions of views so after quitting youtube for over a year successfully coming back and satisfying her audience and releasing a ton of music that was well liked surely she wouldn't mess it up again but she did and this time it was permanent
Speaker A
if somebody tells you that somebody has an std an incurable std it comes from a close friend of theirs a source and then you find out that a friend of yours is sleeping with them is it wrong of you to say hey just so
Speaker A
you know i've heard this don't know if it's true but this person told me talk to them about it ask about it is that [ __ ] up i'm just genuinely curious so let's provide some context trisha paytas popular creator online is
Speaker A
extremely problematic herself but in this case not so much she starts dating jason nash a member of the vlog squad gabby texted him and said trisha has herpes so if you had sex now you have herpes then trisha uploads a long video
Speaker A
livid about the situation since she didn't even really know gabby she seems fine i actually don't even know the girl i don't know her i've met her on two occasions for seconds like i've talked to her four seconds she's reached out to
Speaker A
me a bunch of times when she confronted gabby in the dms we get some classic deflection first of all i didn't tell jason you had herpes i told him a very close person to you told me you did and
Speaker A
i told him gabby claims one of trisha's close friends gave her this information and gabby was just being a good friend to jason by informing him most people look at this and say well if you're going to make a claim like this you need
Speaker A
to ask more questions cite your sources who told you this information or maybe just mind your business in the first place i mean we're talking about a 28 year old at this time using the someone who knows you told me this argument i
Speaker A
don't think i've heard that one since ninth grade but after both sides ranted sent long text messages and claiming they don't even care gabby never apologized or admitted that she did anything wrong and people started looking at her differently
Speaker A
one month later at the end of 2019 this video gabby hannah needs to be stopped would change the public perception even more this is jessie smiles her and gabby used to be best friends way back in the vine early youtube days at one point
Speaker A
jesse even let gabby move into her house and this is a trigger warning sexual assault and in 2013 jesse was dating curtis lepore who was a very popular viner with millions of followers jesse suffered from a concussion and asked
Speaker A
curtis for help she went to his house fell asleep and allegedly woke up to him having sex with her unconscious body she filed a police report privately and he was arrested in september of 2013. tmz broke the story to the public and fans
Speaker A
immediately took curtis aside and attacked jesse he was being charged with felony but curtis took a plea deal and was charged with felony assault that was later reduced to a misdemeanor he got some community service and a slap on the
Speaker A
wrist people take plea deals for many reasons sometimes trials are lengthy and expensive sometimes they know they have a high chance of being found guilty nobody knows exactly what happened between the two because it did not go to
Speaker A
trial however he did take to social media to brag and insult jessie after his plea deal jesse found out that gabby was hanging out with curtis and his friends in 2014. if someone is your best friend they wouldn't typically hang out
Speaker A
with someone who pled guilty to assaulting you obviously jesse was mad and they cut ties with each other slowly over the years fans watched the story times from jesse and gabby and realized they were potentially talking about each
Speaker A
other gabby's stole my best friend's boyfriend or psycho roommate story times ended up being about jessie die hard fans t channels and blogs started to put the pieces together but gabby and jesse never truly came out and talked about it
Speaker A
because most survivors have zero interest in bringing their trauma public until this tweet came out from a 15 year old fan a lot of people forget or don't know that gabby hannah chose a rapist a rapist who admittedly wrote and signed a
Speaker A
confession to the cops over her then best friend who was the victim and she didn't just do it privately but publicly that's always bothered me this fan then received a message from gabby they engaged in these long messages back and
Speaker A
forth where gabby convinced this fan that chessy had been in the background starting a hate campaign against gabby trying to turn people against her because gabby was friends with the man who assaulted her again long-winded essays about how gabby is the victim and
Speaker A
that jessie is gabby's abuser even though she says her life is so good and she doesn't care about this drama but she is spending hours dming a random fan the fan sent the messages to jessie and jessie made the video exposing them
Speaker A
because she was afraid gabby would manipulate more people it's hang out with their and his friends so i was hurt and i told gaby gaby this is like i'm really hurt and she defended herself when all of this happened and she said i was hanging
Speaker A
out with his friends i wasn't hanging out with him he just so happened to be there and he pulled me to the side i didn't intend to talk to him whatever now even gabby's own fans were turning on her because they realized she should
Speaker A
have just cut curtis out of her life and had jessie's back like what a good friend would do instead she is acting like a victim of this situation but after jesse's video gabby didn't respond for about six months
Speaker A
the day after her response she dropped a new song her response to the drama was just more playing the victim but she does say i have zero association with curtis lepore gabby says that her and jesse's fallout is something totally separate
Speaker A
and private but jesse says no our fallout is because you are a quote apologist which is basically someone who shows more concern to the predator rather than the victim gabby has accused jesse of being abusive manipulative narcissistic conniving hateful evil and
Speaker A
although she says she would never defend curtis she has never once said anything bad about him plus curtis himself even said that gabby reached out to him and told him how sorry she felt for him it's like no matter what i say or do
Speaker A
it's you're the victim you're a martyr you're trying to pretend you're somebody you're ignoring it so that means you're this like no matter what action i take it's just you're a bad person you're manipulative you literally want me to disappear and
Speaker A
so do i so like this is where things got really really bad for gabby addressing the drama did not boost interest in her song bad karma ironic her views started dropping her music wasn't selling people were fed up she started blaming everyone
Speaker A
but herself because i'm collecting all of the data and the evidence that my music videos glasshouse and bad karma specifically that i can prove right now were shadow banned and like hidden from my audience i'll admit youtube is extremely
Speaker A
frustrating even i have troubles with monetization censorship it's not a perfect platform but she was talking about the performance of a music video music is subjective sometimes even your own people don't like your song like the pain you feel when that thing like fails
Speaker A
just as like a creator and an artist is like an ego hit and like you get your hopes crushed and like your expectations crushed and that like when i told them that i was literally on the brink of suicide from what was
Speaker A
happening to me because like threatening self-delete because of a low music video performance at the end of the day you just gotta keep it pushing it's a roller coaster we all have ups and downs she kept releasing music and the views just
Speaker A
got lower and lower but we're still talking like 500k one to two million maybe a little less like still way better than your average artist so a month goes by and she decides to bring up some drama again you're going to talk
Speaker A
about my mental health as i'm having a mental breakdown because you gaslighted and mentally abused me for months and now i'm talking about it and i i'm losing my mind to have the audacity to question somebody's mental health and
Speaker A
mock them while they're having an emotional breakdown because of what you did you [ __ ] narcissistic abuser piece of now she does have a little bit of a point here nobody wants to mock somebody's mental health but remember
Speaker A
when she was dming that fan about jessie well she mocked jessie for being on medication she's called me so many times saying she's been on meds and is better now and was sorry for everything when i have never called gabby hannah and said
Speaker A
hi i'm on medication i'm so sorry for everything i realized i was wrong you know you're always talking about mental health and therapy and you know how you've gone through your journey with that like it's so weird to me that you
Speaker A
would bring up someone else's medication that they talked to you about in private but despite jessie being attacked by gabby stans she decided to leave it alone so it fizzled away for a little bit at the end of 2020 gabby entered her
Speaker A
super chill stoner character arc she did story times dropped some more music but her views just kept going down don't worry her life was amazing dude i have such a good life like i love my life i have a sick life a sick place to live i
Speaker A
have a sick boyfriend i have sick friends like i'm so much sick in my life gabby vlogged every day around christmas of 2020 and then took a break from social media for four months before returning in april at this point it had
Speaker A
almost been a full year of no drama her return to youtube and tick-tock was strange i'm back [ __ ] and i don't want to hear i'm acting different [ __ ] being good i'm a bad [ __ ] and i'm sick
Speaker A
there was also this tweet daily reminder that i could [ __ ] both your parents and the one person on earth that you love but choose not to i love you all have an amazing day gabby from the bottom of my
Speaker A
heart i want to thank you for waking up today and deciding to not have sex with my parents you are such a good person for choosing not to do that like what did she want people to say to that tweet
Speaker A
thanks in june of 2021 things were about to get wild gabby did a buzzfeed interview called why is everyone so mad at gabby hanna where the 30 year old essentially blames jessie smiles drama channels twitter accounts trolls and everyone but
Speaker A
herself for the low performance of her music and youtube videos when the interviewer asked about the curtis lepore and jessie situation she said who didn't i apologize to i gave jesse smiles an apology it feels like i'm always dishing out apologies and i've
Speaker A
never once received one and that to me feels a little chaotic i have personally never seen the words i'm sorry come out of gabby's mouth without having butt come right after it i'm sorry but now gabby's stands are barraging jessie and
Speaker A
attempts to get her to see this article making her relive the most traumatic experience of her life and after going one and a half years without saying anything this was the straw that broke the camel's back jesse released a private phone
Speaker A
conversation that her and gabby had where gabby admits to why would you listen to him why would you listen to him like really why would you be like i was getting ready to defend you but for what just don't just say no sir
Speaker A
thanks like [ __ ] you like even though she's not my friend i don't want to hear how you think but like when he said that so why is this a big deal again if you're my best friend and you tell me
Speaker A
this person assaulted you i'm riding for you i don't even care what they have to say especially after they were found guilty by a judge but that's just how i roll with my best friends i don't know about y'all this three-hour phone call
Speaker A
was leaked all of the fans noticed how manipulative and toxic gabby was you knew that siding went curtis that day and yet you are fighting the whole internet using my trauma to do it and saying this never happened that is
Speaker A
apologist behavior that i forgave you for so if everyone wants to call your psychologist so why are you talking about it in 2020 i don't know why are you talking about in 2020 though jesse what are you talking about you did
Speaker A
this do you not realize that you did this do you not truly truly see that everything that is happening right now is a direct result of what you did in every way in light of jessie releasing the phone call gabby uploaded a video
Speaker A
called confessions of a washed up youtube has been in this video she gives an update for her fans and explains that she will be releasing a multi-part series addressing every controversy she has ever been in in the past few years
Speaker A
she prefaced us with some information that this series was filmed before she started treating her adhd which some people look at her as essentially deflecting some of her behavior on this disorder also in that buzzfeed article she said of course i was a [ __ ] apple
Speaker A
i have a neurological disorder that was unchecked and i wasn't taking care of my mental health so it kind of seems like she was maybe trying to get people to feel bad for her for not taking care of
Speaker A
her mental health even though she's 30 and like probably should be handling those things chapter 1 was about stealing jokes and the rice gum controversy chapter 2 was about the bianca controversy which is the one time where i believe gabby was actually
Speaker A
targeted gabby made a video called transforming myself into a tik-tok e-girl where she was scrolling through an article that explains what a tick-tock e-boy and e-girl is and what their aesthetic is like gabby is skimming through the article not reading
Speaker A
it just looking at the pictures and commenting on their outfits the last picture is of a 17 year old girl named bianca devins who was tragically murdered gabby very obviously did not see the text she complimented her looks
Speaker A
and then moved on her face was on the screen for just a few seconds t channels and drama youtube channels then attacked gabby and said that she was using bianca for views they also said gabby is tone deaf and needs to blur bianca's face and
Speaker A
is shamelessly profiting off of a young girl's death but these t channels were using bianca in their thumbnails gabby cut the part out apologized to the family made an official public apology and the devin's family issued a statement saying that they were not
Speaker A
upset with gabby we just want to say that we were not offended by it at all we didn't see anything wrong with what she did she googled egirl and pulled up a picture of bianca yes there was an article about what happened
Speaker A
to her simple must say it was a simple mistake there was nothing disrespectful about it we didn't feel disrespected the t channels never said sorry or admitted that they were wrong and it's pretty clear that most of them were using this
Speaker A
poor girl as a pawn for their drama chapter 3 was kind of just addressing a lot of different controversies chapter 4 in my opinion is extremely long-winded and not really that important but in short gabby was working on a youtube red
Speaker A
show escape the night and everyone said she was a nightmare to work with she even admits that she was a nightmare to work with but somehow was still a victim of bullying good like i was just unprofessional dude a lot of people have
Speaker A
a lot of stories about me being unprofessional i promise you that like there's no shortage of them i used to be really difficult to work with and probably in the wrong setting i'm still really difficult to work with but again
Speaker A
throughout this she was putting up screenshots of symptoms of adhd sort of insinuating that it's okay to be a nightmare to work with when you have adhd also in chapter four she talks about a scam product she promoted a few
Speaker A
years ago kenza cosmetics that's the thing when i say like i'm sorry to the people that i've like hurt through that like i would never ever want to [ __ ] scam my fans and i didn't talk about this because nowadays
Speaker A
with nfts and crypto pump and dumps basically every influencer has promoted a scam and felt no remorse gabby is no different in chapter five she goes back and forth with trisha paytas seemingly forever all of it's stemming from that
Speaker A
std comment that she wrongfully made two years earlier but the most damaging video of them all was about the three hour phone call with jesse smiles gabby made a 30 minute video jesse made a one hour response to this there is a lot of
Speaker A
information in here but there are a few important points here that speak volumes about gabby first why am i being asked about jessie smiles in a buzzfeed article because jesse smiles made sure that i would be asked about her for the
Speaker A
rest of my [ __ ] career probably in an interview you have the right to not speak about any topic especially with a major publication if she didn't want to be asked about jessie she can just say no comment and they will not publish it
Speaker A
gabby seems to think that jessie has made it her life's mission to accuse gabby of being friends with curtis so gabby is a victim of being friends with arrest all he asked was to be heard and i listened then she explains how jessie
Speaker A
goes about attacking her you don't see the hundreds of tweets that she mass unliked mass unliking tweets this would imply that gabby keeps track of what jesse is liking on twitter and trying to use those likes as evidence of attacking
Speaker A
gabby you don't see the tweet and deletes then she puts a tweet on the screen that gabby is not mentioned in therefore she is assuming jessie is talking about her in any tweet that is negative you don't see the voice
Speaker A
messages and the text that she sends me threatening me crossing my boundaries then she brings on the screen text messages of jessie threatening her but if you read them there are no threats i'm not trying to pressure you i don't
Speaker A
need or want to sit down and make a video this whole message on the left is jesse asking to keep things off of social media i'm not saying i'm making a video i haven't made up my mind yet
Speaker A
making a video is the last thing i want to do literally all of these texts are jessie begging gabby to handle this with her privately off of social media out of the public eye i need you all to pay
Speaker A
attention to gabby right now because this is just a small detail but shows how her logic is not sound you don't see the tweet and deletes you she just said that she uses deleted tweets as evidence of jessie attacking her then listen to
Speaker A
this and telling me that if i don't do what she wants that she's going to put out another video with more evidence and the evidence being tweets that i deleted in 2014. so you can use jessie's deleted tweets as evidence even when you
Speaker A
are not mentioned in them but jessie cannot use your deleted tweets as evidence she just totally contradicted herself in a 16 second span anyways gabby says she didn't want to have a private phone call with jessie and that
Speaker A
she needed to respect her boundaries threatening me crossing my boundaries that i'm setting firmly then later on in this video she goes on to speculate as to what actually happened the night of jesse's assault and if what happened is
Speaker A
actually considered rape or not i'm not going to put clips because who in their right mind would ever speculate about a situation as serious as that publicly to their millions of followers on top of the fact that a judge already made a
Speaker A
decision as to what happened seven years ago so it's interesting that gabby ever brings up respecting boundaries when she's willing to go as far as that here's another random situation where she used a text message as proof and
Speaker A
claims she tried to reach out to this person and the person in the text says you have the wrong number he ignored my call i texted him he said that he didn't want to talk because he was sleeping you
Speaker A
have the wrong number alex i have a new number so you might not have this one nope this isn't alex oh this is gab you free to talk how can you argue with somebody that literally put a text
Speaker A
message on the screen as proof that she reached out to someone that literally in the text says this is not the person you are trying to reach and if you need any more reasons why you should question everything gabby says
Speaker A
here you go i've been living in constant fear that a lie that i don't even know i'm telling is gonna catch up with me because i don't [ __ ] remember it because i do impulsive [ __ ] and then i
Speaker A
forget about it i have memory issues dude so we're supposed to feel bad that gabby is a self-admitted pathological liar who can't keep up with her own lies then on the screen she puts this is not an excuse don't know why not has asterix
Speaker A
around it i cannot take ownership of something that i do not remember and is not communicated to me now gabby has an excuse to get her out of any situation forever she is saying if i don't remember it didn't happen
Speaker A
after this multi-part series her content got weird [Music] fans thought she totally lost it in october of 2021 she deleted almost her entire youtube catalog and only left her music and random videos posted within the past year her youtube presence
Speaker A
dwindled to the lowest it had ever been but she remained pretty active on tiktok she started opening up a lot more about her mental health i'm bipolar which means some days i think that i can save the world in other days i want to kill
Speaker A
not sure if this bipolar was a real diagnosis or a self-diagnosis but then her videos got a bit more strange um i'm either a psychic medium i'm getting direct communication from aliens or from god or angels or another
Speaker A
cosmic being or all of the above something's different i just call it god and all of it started happening when i started expressing direct gratitude i had a cup of coffee and i was like wow i'm so [ __ ] grateful for this cup of
Speaker A
coffee gabby says she is freaked out that she is a psychic medium she's talking with aliens and that all of this started happening when she started being grateful for her life her friends her coffee and goes on to explain some of the most
Speaker A
normal human experiences gabby hannah thinks she's living in an alternate reality because she's feeling very normal human emotions wait your third eye is opening this happened to me too one hundo stay tuned for this [ __ ] ride
Speaker A
and just last week gabby would go on to post over 170 tick tocks in 48 hours in what seems to be a full-blown manic episode you know every time i say i'm gonna save the world people laugh at me but why doesn't
Speaker A
everybody else together like me with me every single day manifest saving the world instead of laughing why don't you pray with me why don't you encourage me she talked about religion a lot throughout this claiming she knows about
Speaker A
the afterlife about god about jesus that she is jesus or she is god or the son of god this is not something gabby would normally talk about and this can be a sign somebody is going into a manic
Speaker A
state help me help me let me show you how mother mary wants us to pray hail mary full of grace the lord is with thee holy mary mother of grace pray for us sinners i did it i did it i beat d.i.d i beat
Speaker A
adhd depression anxiety i'd be ocd obsessive compulsive disorder because people humans your brothers and sisters who have gone to hell and back realize everybody wants to be jesus it's all going to be all right praise be it's all going to be all right she would
Speaker A
seemingly snap out of it for a little bit and go back to the normal gabby of kind of bragging about her life and how amazing it is so people were questioning whether it was a stunt or not so many
Speaker A
people who actually don't give a [ __ ] about anyone but themselves regardless of how hard they've been lying to themselves for a very long time are so concerned for me because i'm manic right as i sit in my cozy private loft on top
Speaker A
of my house look what the internet did collectively to hate a [ __ ] woman for no [ __ ] reason other than fun look what we are capable of collectively if we would remember we instead of always [ __ ] attacking she
Speaker A
and that's why i am so successful my house is paid for my house is paid for my house is paid for it's almost like it's almost it's almost as like i'm in heaven and you're all still stuck in hell that
Speaker A
i could actually be the second coming of jesus christ god does have dark humor he is a horny sick it's okay to have dirty thoughts i can teach you how to feel better about them now there's definitely nothing
Speaker A
wrong with expressing your religion sure maybe she didn't normally do this but who knows maybe she had a spiritual awakening but then she kind of started offending people i am an accomplished author of two new york times best
Speaker A
selling poetry books i have around or more than 20 million followers is it because i'm a woman of color it's actually kind of stressful being a woman of color a young woman of color in a whitish rich cocky neighborhood i keep telling
Speaker A
you guys that i'm middle eastern i traveled from lebanon a maronite crusader of the catholic church gabby is from pennsylvania she claims that she is a woman of color because she is from lebanese descent just by looking and
Speaker A
probably identifying his way her whole life i grew up in a black neighborhood i was actually the only white girl in my neighborhood outside of my sister's but i rode the school bus alone was the only white girl on my school bus and
Speaker A
here's a bit of irony they made me sit in the front all the cool kids sat in the back and they bullied the [ __ ] out of me they twisted my hair they pulled it they called me names they didn't let me play
Speaker A
with them because i wasn't like them but my best friends at school were still the black girls because they were the kindest and just when you thought things couldn't get any worse a random stranger found their way into gabby's home what you are
Speaker A
seeing here is a man named nick knocking on gabby hannah's door and asking if he can come inside to use her bathroom oh hi hi think you can use your bathroom yeah sure yeah all right everybody i'm literally inside of the house right now
Speaker A
a friend just texted me and i told him that i was gonna go on a run for a guy who showed up at my house and was just feeling a little lost asked to use the bathroom and now we're gonna
Speaker A
go for a run together he asked to pray with me it was really nice and his text was gab listen to me now get that man out of your house gabby goes on to explain that a friend of hers reached out and said
Speaker A
gabby kick that guy out of your house right now but she assures that nick is friendly and that he's nice and that he won't do any harm to him you know he means well but nicholas is good and
Speaker A
we're gonna go for a run because we already prayed and had our coffee and listen to music yes i'm so happy fans were terrified for gabby they thought she was in real danger then she posted a bunch of videos of them dancing and him
Speaker A
just kind of following her around her house he gave everyone an extremely uncomfortable vibe why was he there is this even real by the way nick yes i know you know who i am come on why did you lie to me this whole time
Speaker A
why did you lie to me that's for my acne you dumb [ __ ] get the [ __ ] out of my house now now now after nick got home he decided to go on tiktok and explain why he was there yeah
Speaker A
i was trying to get her to eat something i was trying to get her to drink something was looking at the medications that she had maybe if i could try to like get some get a medication into her
Speaker A
body that would help her um come out of the psychosis i've seen it before i've had friends i've dealt with it before so he was saying that he had real life experience to be able to help but while
Speaker A
he was there he posted this tick tock i honestly would like to help i don't know what to do though so if anybody has any suggestions i'm here everybody says somebody needs to help her so this man went to a social
Speaker A
media influencer's house scoured through her medications and tried to get her to take some pills at some point gabby realized what was going on and kicked him out also during his 48 hours the cops came and did two wellness checks on
Speaker A
her both of the times they decided that she was perfectly okay and gabby just kept doing what she was doing i'm gonna keep reminding you that i'm middle eastern and i have always been middle eastern but for some
Speaker A
reason isn't it so weird that the world insists on seeing me as white and after 48 hours eventually gabby calmed down according to her two psych evaluation professionals declared there was no need for any intervention so if the professional said
Speaker A
that she was okay and healthy what was all of this a manic episode an attention stunt a giant joke i found out yesterday i was on tmz again but just like britt hey tmz gabby has burned every bridge she ever
Speaker A
had she damaged her reputation even to her own followers time and time again she abandoned the audience that made her who she was she got into controversy after controversy and never not once took accountability for anything even though she really thinks she did every
Speaker A
apology had a stipulation she was always the victim she stooped as low as to say that she can't be held accountable for anything she doesn't remember sure she has mentioned her adhd disorder and potentially a bipolar disorder but we
Speaker A
don't know anything about her medical records so it's tough to speculate on that before a couple weeks ago her relevance dwindled to an all-time low nobody was making videos about her none of her songs were gaining traction even
Speaker A
her live shows had a max of like 40 people in the crowd gabby now has the spotlight back on her and for better or for worse she loves it a lot of the drama channels and t channels are now
Speaker A
expressing sympathy for her her biggest enemies online are now worried about her wishing her well nobody would assume this is all an attention stunt because we don't want to further the stigma against mental health we don't want people to look at mania and think they
Speaker A
must be faking because then people will have a hard time getting the proper care they need i mean faking tourettes faking cancer faking death we've seen some people go pretty far but if gabby does get the proper help she needs gets back
Speaker A
into the good graces of all her enemies and all the people she battled with then goes back to the gabby hannah her fans used to know and love then everybody wins but especially gabby
