Thank you for sharing this interesting look into YouTuber personalities! I had no idea that "characters" like this existed on the Internet! I can't wait to see the class's responses!
ReplyDeleteI think it is important to have "different" or "unique" videos on YouTube, rather then having the same styles. Why do you think people come up with these characters, or how do they think of such weird personalities for them?
DeleteWhat great questions Ashlyn! I think people come up with characters like these because they are a way to garner attention, develop a fan base, and promote themselves as actors/actresses who work in the media business. As for "how" actors come up with these characters, I'm not entirely sure, but I imagine it's probably the result of years of trying to create a YouTube presence.

ReplyDelete2) She made this video because lots of people are very intrigued with how well she presents herself as a whole other person. She's a huge inspiration to many young adolescents.
3 She comes off as a very crazy and courageous human being.
I like how you said that her videos may have come up on the "suggested videos." Do you think that she created this character to prove to other people that you should't care what others think about you, even if you are different or "unique?"

They probably wouldn't watch to much more of it once they saw how the lipstick was on her lips to begin with.
