Colleen Ballinger's Fans & Critics Debate Ongoing Content Controversy

YouTube sensation and 'Miranda Sings star Colleen Ballinger has been under fire lately.

A fan recently recalled an encounter with the vlogger as a young attendee of Ballinger's stage performance wherein Ballinger performs as Miranda. The young woman, known as Becky on her TikTok account, responded with her understanding of the situation after the clip had gone viral earlier this week.

Becky's account is far from the only video in Ballinger's tag on TikTok discussing alleged inappropriate content from Ballinger.

Several other TikToks from fans detail stories of feeling uncomfortable due to 'skits' in Ballinger's 'Miranda' stage performances, as well as TikToks showcasing footage from Ballinger's past videos they feel notably inappropriate regarding her target audience.

The Blast recently looked at the actress's past controversial moments involving minors.

After 17-year-old Adam McIntyre made a video discussing his accounts with Ballinger wherein he discussed his feelings after Ballinger sent him underwear in the mail related to an Instagram giveaway and the content of their private direct messages, Ballinger made a response video where she addressed the controversy and shared her side of the story.

Following the recent accounts of uncomfortable encounters with Ballinger, TMZ reported Ballinger had begun to lose sponsorship deals related to her podcast.

OneSkin told the publication, "We were aware of this previously and have decided to cease the relationship. This behavior is appalling, and we do not condone or support it in any form."

Zocdoc, which the outlet reports are a telemedicine company, has also ceased its relationship with Ballinger. The company has also terminated its sponsorship of Ballinger's podcast.

Since the social media conversation surrounding Ballinger has increased, she has not posted on her YouTube channels. It has been two weeks since she posted on her vlog channel and five months since she posted on her 'main' channel.

Fans and critics have taken to Ballinger's latest Instagram post from two weeks ago to discuss the controversy in the comments section.

A longtime fan of Ballinger commented, "I've been watching you for ten years, and I don't often comment, but you feel like a dear friend to me. I miss hearing your stories and seeing your vlogs. You are so sweet, funny, empathetic, and open-minded; anyone who has truly been following you would know that. I miss hearing about your kids, chickens, and what you eat that day. Your videos and podcasts are always something to look forward to. You have grown into the most beautiful, authentic version of yourself, and you deserve to be viewed as the person you are today, with the life you've worked so hard to build. I can't wait to see you perform in Indianapolis, and I'm sending you all the love and support in good times and bad ?"

Another follower wrote, "I just wish she would say SOMETHING. It's been two weeks. Whether you address it or not, say something."

"The fact you all are defending this behavior is outrageous to me. She did something horrible and isn't addressing the situation at all. I hope some of you open your eyes and see what is going on," a follower said.

"I've been following you for years, but what you've done is disgusting. It's sad people have to use the internet in ways it's not intended for," another follower commented.

A Ballinger supporter wrote, "The fact that I've checked every day multiple times this past week if you've uploaded a vlog speaks volumes. So much love for you, Colleen❤️"

Another fan commented, "I don't comment typically. But I want to send love and light to you and your tribe. ❤️ and the internet is just a weird place. Stay strong, mama!"

"❤️missing you a lot today. You are one of the few people I feel have a brain that's wired like mine. And as a woman in her 20s who has yet to have a baby, I feel like I have learned so much from you that women in my own life failed to teach me. I have watched your vlogs daily, and I'm sad to see everything going on. I don't know what's the truth, so I just try not to read any of it. I can imagine you must be going through it right now and can't yet speak on anything. Some people have the mental capacity to understand mistakes were made, and people can grow from them. I hope you'll come back soon. ❤️," another fan wrote.
