I think she's mentioned before that she's scared of fire/candles cause there was one time as a kid where she almost set a chair on fire. I think it was in that 'dark academia' vid, but I'm not 100% sure
 
lmaoo found some gold comments

it seems like more and more people outside of tattle are realizing that she just keeps pretending that everything is 'SO MUCH BETTER THAN IT USED TO BE I PROMISE'

So what was the point in doing a specific Cancer degree...

Yeah, and imagine being so privileged that you can spend £15,000 on a Master's degree you don't even need. She could have become a full-time Youtuber right after Cambridge or her gap year. Kinda feels like she only did the Master's to keep herself busy. It makes me so mad. I'll be spending half of my life paying back my student loan and Holly can just waste money like that.

She only did her masters to say she “has a masters degree” - she’d do the same thing with a PhD just to say she “has a doctorate” but she knows she’d never survive the real challenges that a commitment to a PhD program presents.
 
I found it interesting that she actually acknowledged that oil was a big “fear food”. Non-stick pan or not, that omission for her breakfast was palpable and I feel like she only draw attention to it more later.

Yeah this! Also, she said that she's fine with oil now cause she eats food that's been cooked with oil when she's eating out at a restaurant.. which is literally exactly the same thing she said in her 2017 video about oil iirc

At least she'd be willing to use oil now - if only "if the recipe asks for it and says that using oil will make a vital difference to the outcome of the recipe".^^

Also found it a bit weird that Holly's "rest day" features an 'ultra-intense' ab workout but okay.

Wtf she is no where near recovered if that is how she thinks!
 
Lol I went to the same dance school as Holly when I was younger and I had severe self harm issues, literally carved the word 'die' into my arm which everyone could see, and not one of my instructors said anything or did anything to help me. Dance school is a tit environment.
Do you mind saying which dance school? I also went to dance school with Holly but I think she moved on to a different one sometime after I left.
 
Y’all I don’t even watch this Holly girl but I just crashed this thread to say why in the flying duck does she post so many photos grouped in ONE post in Instagram??? Like why are there 9 photos in one post with the same outfit and smile 😭. Nobody needs that many in literally all your posts- it makes you look very self-interested. Post one or two selfies at most. My breathing becomes a chore just looking at your page omg

That's always annoyed me too. 2 or 3, sure. Add in some photos of you in other places or whatever, sure. But no one seems to need the exact same photo over and over again. I've noticed quite often she'll have two poses, and then post alternating photos of those two poses that are just slightly different.
 
So we finally got an update video on what Holly is going to do now after her Master's: She won't do a Ph.D. because she feels that's not her path. Instead, she is going to do youtube full-time, focusing on the ByHollyG channel. She says her long-term goal is to become a David Attenborough-like figure.

I honestly don't know how I feel about this - thoughts?
If that's been her plan for a while, it sounds like rather than the cancer research masters degree something in science communication would have been a better option? They're offered by lots of Universities, eg:

I know when she was around 16 ish (not sure when she started there) she went to Beckenham Ballet Academy, that’s common knowledge as it’s on an Instagram post of hers way down on her feed (attached). Then at the same time I know she was at Bird College- she was in the junior classes (I think she mentioned that somewhere too on her channel a while back).

Bird especially is a serious cutthroat school- you’re constantly watching the degree programme people and it’s not great for comparing yourself pretty harshly to everyone around you. Most dance places can be pretty toxic and I’ve heard some bad things about most of the top dance institutions in London. Mine was alright though but Holly defo didn’t go there 😂
