#ColleenBallinger #News #MirandaSings
sorry colleen we see your uploads, like your miranda camp live shows from 15 and 16, and the music video lyrics, stop the shaming of good mamas pls. we see lol, not sorry either, just like u.
Theres sooooo much more they didnt cover
PAY ATTENTION mothers. it’s just the tip of the youtube content iceberg with her, the more i see the less i believe a grown azzwoman too. omG.
She goofy
you know its bad when ur on meme accounts, twitch streams, and THE NEWS….
She need to get banned go jailed for it she straight prev😢😢😢
This wasn’t an apology. Everyone needs to stop calling that video that. She’s gloating if anything
Im so glad Mainstream pucked this up. Maybe now she will be absolutely held accountable and the safety of her own kids questioned.
When your response video is so bad that it makes main stream news:
That has to be a new record
The individual in question is multifaceted in her actions, exhibiting both grooming and losing behaviors. It is important to approach the situation with a pragmatic mindset, as the video she released does not constitute an apology, despite being labeled as such by some. In actuality, the video serves as a continuation of her attempts to manipulate her audience and the broader world through the use of gaslighting and disregard for the allegations against her. Moreover, she goes so far as to suggest that the allegations are purely for the sake of entertainment, placing the blame on the audience and exhibiting classic narcissistic tendencies. It is therefore understandable that many find it difficult to place trust in her words and actions.
Bwahahahaha, I called it
i hope she’s so embarrassed that she doesn’t even show her face in public anymore. she deserves every horrible thing that’s happening to her.
Jesus, when an apology is so bad that it literally makes national news
AYE BEE CEE NEWS COVERED TS WE ARE IN THE WORST DIMENSION
God someone please take away her children 😢
This made it to the news?! Oh nooo. Lol what the heck. If she wasn’t done before….she is now. If this made it to the news she’s probably going to get into some legal trouble now….if they Wana press charges.
Shoulda listened to her team smh
this should not be on the news
Yes it should
Yikes the big media are picking this up?! Her so called apology is disgusting and completely dismissive not a good look
If it were a guy having inappropriate relationships with underaged female fans, the guy would be locked up pending court hearing for charges and bail assessment.
Well that’s not appropriate behavior
I think with her “apology video” she wanted to be the one everyone talks about and get attention again
Man kann es auch übertreiben . Die Jungs wollen nur fame . Sie wurden beeinträchtigt? Wirklich ? Eine Freundschaft mit einen Star ist nie normal…
The boys just want fame.
Yeah, not like girls were also involved and they had raw evidence of her being creepy.
If this was a man, you wouldn’t defend them
The sad thing is that I really loved this women 😢
NO WAY THE NEWS HAHAHHAHA
And look how those children turned out…..
I also hope people know that she’s been deleting comments EN MASS on her new video…… just in case anyone wants to comment, most are being deleted. No specific keywords or anything.
I also think it’s absolutely hilarious she thought it would be a good and sane idea to express her situation via UKULELE……….
These losers are really crying over that? Shes obviously joking, have you seen miranda sings?
If this was a man, would you be defending them?
“Obviously joking🤓🤏”
THE NEWS??
2 flamers accuse. One in a dress. So they don’t hold a lot of credibility to me. She probably figured it was okay to talk to them because they are not into women. They are fame seekers as well. So I don’t trust ANY of them.
Oh waaaa 😭
She is the female version of Dahvie Vanity
Never heard of any of these people and couldn’t care less about them or what sort of stupid stuff they’re doing with/to each other.
Colleen needs to delete her video :/ stupid
The reason im leaving the net yet again is people who prey on children.
She’s just the tip of the iceberg.
It gets far worse.
As a survivor and anti predator activist, we are fighting a lising battle because folks don’t care.
My dad got away with abusing three year olds, cause the world was sick 1956-1986
Its far worse now.
Choose yo deny our truth, your loss
You think its only on the internet? They can legit be anywhere and you would never know…
@KinZodDi no I know they’re everywhere
NOT NBC NEWS
WHO????
LOLLL NOT THE NEWS
Why is the police not arresting her ?
Why aren’t these mother fxxkers warning their viewers about de dollarization they can pretend it’s not happening but that doesn’t make it so it’s already happening and nobody is warning the working class.😴🐑🐑😴😂🤣
No way I knew it was super bad, but the fact it got on the news Dear Gods, Colleen should apologize properly.
Being on the news is crazy 😭
Ain’t no way she’s on the news bruh 😭
Holy ish… this is everywhere now. And only her own fault
YouTubers try not to go after to there fans challenge.
That boy is so miserable that he’s really yonna milk it for all he can.
The fact it’s in the news is wild.
SHE MADE IT ON THE NEWS LMAOAO
Mind y’all business what it got to do with y’all?😂
Baby come talk to me, I wont tell ❤😂
WE MAKING IT ONTO MAINSTREAM MEDIA WITH THIS ONE 🔥‼️🥶
THIS WOMAN MADE IT ON NBC BRO
Where’s Chris Hansen when you need him…?
Omg no way she maid it mainstream 😭
People like this think they’re invincible just because they’re popular. You’re not, and this proves that, don’t ever take for granted what you’ve accomplished in life
I say lock her up
HAHAHA WOW
Why didn’t edp get any airtime though!
Daaaaang Colleen’s weirdo butt made it all over the news. I’m so glad I never let my children watch her. I used to watch Miranda and it was CLEARLY adult content. Not meant for children.
This ludicrous story about psychologically dysfunction individuals is only given air time to keep the spotlight off the Joe & Hunter Biden crime syndicate .
https://youtu.be/LNhU4quRED8
Not to be sexiest or anything but could you even freaking imagine if this was a little girl and a 33 year old man ???
even nbc news be reporting on this dawg aint no wayyy
THEY GOT THE APOLOGY VIDEO TOO
The fact that parents still pay and take there children to this shows is sad. I will never take my kid and put trauma.
Shes working on an insanity defense.
NOT THE NEWS
I can’t believe this is like real news. Thought just entertainment news
Yeah, don’t chat with kids online in exchange for free social media work. She is guilty of mismanaging her business. I don’t think she was actually trying to do anything but get free work out of these fans by giving them the online friendship they wanted. I’m sure every zoom call included her looking for new ideas for content. This is proof that parents need to be 100% involved with what their kids are doing in the internet.
Star? Lol who ?
So what does her nieces and nephews think now that this is all out about her
dude this is big shes literally on the news
Should have listened to your team Colleen. Ouch.
International embarrassment
There’s legit a video of her saying, “I’m gonna send some underwear” to an underage boy. She’s disgusting and I’m glad I was never a fan
This thing got so big that its on the news 💀
HATERS BACK OFF
love Colleen sm❤
This is why theater kids can’t get famous. They think they are witty and something straight out of a movie
Man, when I was 14 I would’ve enjoyed that
Omg on the news
That’s tuff she’s on the news 💀
And Jojo Siwa whenever she was with Jojo Siwa she would ask her some weird inappropriate questions and Jojo looked uncomfortable and she would try to change the subject when collen asked her
She’s definitely a groomer and parents need to not take their kids to her shows
Dang the fact she made headline news is crazy 😂
Some of her conversations with kids literally read exactly like some transcripts from To Catch A Predator with Chris Hansen. I cannot believe she hasn’t been arrested.
Wonder what the next phase will be after social media and gender experimentation fades out I think we are watching the destruction our society as we know it oh forgot one thing Fentanyl – Ok so there’s a toxic stew to think about social media gender bending topped off with Fent yikes
Americans are so sensitive nowadays… that’s so weird. Like who cares what she said 10-15 years ago even 5 . What’s the metter ? So stupid . Colleen is a grown woman with the kids and family. Guys chill out
I’m surprised a major news network is finally reporting on this story even though youtube has been covering it for the past week
I really do believe she could have fixed this if she had been sincere and apologized.
You know it’s bad if NBC Reporting
I love Colleen and I’m sticking with her
She looks like aoc
Nice
It’s not often youtubers get on the news, and when they do it’s always something terrible
She thinks everyone criticizing her is a liar. Yet hasn’t disproven any of the allegations. Which only cements her as a creep!
Who cares? Why doesn’t MSNBC go after Transgender predators with the same veracity instead of encouraging it? You Freaking Hypocrites!
Any man who asked a child to put their hands down his pants would probably be facing criminal charges…..she needs to be held accountable LEGALLY.
as for this adam its a demon i doubt anything happen seeing its a Liar claiming to be something it isn’t!
