I really liked Demi when I first discovered her, I actually thought wow how refreshing to see a girl who isn’t a skinny blonde girl, with a perfect boyfriend and a dog. Found her really relatable and normal.
Literally within the year I have changed my mind completely, it started with her becoming increasingly lazy and scruffy on camera, doing embarrassing dancing and admitting to bad hygiene. I think people tell her how normal and relatable she is and she has took it and ran with it too far.
Now she’s just (trying to) morph into every other YouTuber, a house a boyfriend a dog and you can tell she is proud to have finally ‘fit the mould’ (or so she thinks) when her authenticity and relatability has just gone down hill and disappeared
Definitely agree. I used to be a watcher. I found her through an Emily Canham video where they both wore outfits from boohoo. Thought it was so refreshing to see someone whose body looked a bit like mine on YouTube! Immediately followed her.
Even then I found her content a bit low brow if I’m honest, not much between the ears and the constant ads were a bit annoying but I tried to persevere as I liked following someone a bit different on YouTube.
Then saw her get sucked into this whole influencer thing and become what everyone didn’t want her to be. The final straw was when I came across her Tattle thread and saw the Amber Wright stuff. The girl next door image was completely gone, she truly believes she’s the dogs bollocks and will throw her mates under the bus to big herself up. Absolutely saw her true colours when I read that and it’s only gotten worse from there.
