I'm not a fan of JC, but I don't want someone to tell me I "look good" or am "not ugly" and other bs if I ask this question. There are beauty standards and conventional beauty and people who don't fit them are mostly done and tired of hearing these fake "ohh but you're pretty" comments. If a person already think they're ugly, some random celeb telling them they "look good" won't solve it and honestly saying "everybody is beautiful" often feels like people denying the hierarchy that comes with beauty standards and the treatment that "ugly people" get in society. We don't need you to say "you look good" because it never fails to sound fake asf, we need to hear "I'll accept you no matter how you look and what you think of yourself". "You're beautiful the way you are" won't solve anything. People will always have beauty standards and judge other's faces and bodies. "Your appearance should have nothing to do with how you're treated and acceptance" is a better one.

Going around Coachella finding random people to do their makeup is part of the marketing strategy. Making it seem like fans/normal people are still involved and included. Ofc, no actual normal people will be actually selected for the campaigns, he needs influencers with followers to sell to.

2 groomers together

I’m thinking he didn’t do anything at Coachella because I’m sure you have to book years in advance and he wasn’t sure when this would be launching. I’m also thinking he’s not getting investors and the financial backing for obvious reasons, I’m sure is rd expensive to have promotion there. The sad part is I actually think his line is going to be good..but I think at this point he’s damaged his reputation with his obvious patterns of harassing men and people don’t want to support him. As much as I’d love to support this line and check it out…I refuse to support someone who demonstrates the pattern he does.

For me I think it’s not getting a lot of hype because 1, people aren’t as fond of James anymore and 2, it looks like actual paint to me. I would never buy that for normal everyday makeup

I think part of the reason why James's brand isn't getting much hype (besides the obvious) is that the brand is starting with face paints, which aren't exactly something that the average person can use easily or regularly. I think it's an interesting concept for a brand, but it's something that would appeal to MUAs and not the average makeup user. So I get why it's just not appealing to most people.

And yet people still will follow him and buy his crap

I mean he could have done both, picked well known influencers and picked regular people too why didn’t he do that

I guess James pulled a page from Norvina's book: Using small creators for free marketing. But I think the most concerning problem here is that people are still supporting James after all he has done and refuses to apologize and learn from.

MY THEORY: The influencers for the campaign were already picked, the contest was a marketing stunt, and he copyright claimed it himself so he had an excuse.

Why is he still allowed to have a platform 😭😭

At the end of the day, James will always be this heinous, predatory narcissist. He got what he wanted.. the free stitches & clout given from his actual fans, and the maximum exposure & money he's going to get from these "influencer" winners and their channels/pages 🤡 What a pos.

As a product developer I really think that James has a good idea for his product. There is potential for him to create a trend that could break his product through to the market but he is messing up on the marketing side of things. Cochella would've been a golden opportunity for his brand. And with the way he did his followers he should be somewhere trying to find a way to bounce back from this. My advice is to hire a better marketing team and to select 10 additional small creators to be apart of the brand.

Spirit Halloween did something similar too searching for the next Halloween ambassador. To co-host alongside Lance Bass from NSYNC. So many applied of all skill levels. From creating halloween props, haunted houses, to general love and fan of Halloween dedicated instagram accounts. They ended up choosing an influencer with a huge following and the backlash that ensued was... well as expected. A mess.

Remember, or maybe not, the crowd seems young here, but anyway when the were going to make the Selena movie, they had a cattle call audition, and they said they would pick someone from her fans, and ended up with Jennifer Lopez, someone already in the business and NOT Mexican- American... It's a well known marketing strategy.

I literally had the same situation… I auditioned for a background character in a big movie. There was three steps(free different lines and places). I did 2 of them -“Really good.”, but there was a girl who’s mom had a small business, and instagram account. I ended up at phase -“It got nothing to do with you, just she fits the character better.” No offence to a girl who ended getting the role. But why then I had to stay where for two weeks!?!? Idk if it had to something with her mom’s business, but I almost got the role. And then you just turn to a different side.

James not setting an age requirement feels pretty on brand

I had to check my calendar… I thought I woke up in 2019 again 🙄

Choosing influencers was a shitty move. I low key am resentful with the influencers for ruining the others chances

Oh no it's so shocking he's done some bad things and now people are side-eying him. I feel like the community is just over all of the drama, and I feel like the people trying to get clout from James (while easy to do, as he's providing a platform for unknown artists) it brings into question this- Do you really want to be associated with getting your start/recognition from someone who's been known to talk to minors?

Also I wouldn’t be surprised if the audition thing was just a marketing ploy, James knew who he wanted and he wanted influencers with a following to promote the brand and now he’s backtracking

I am not a big tiktok person but I hope alot of people that applied go through the other tags and see some underground artists to give them some exposure. Besides the point of being shady and picking only people with big followings he really couldve done like a shoutout thing of runner ups or just honorable mentions and posted it on tiktok and his KZread because people will watch to see if they are in it and people love to see other creative peoples work compiled so there's lots of diversity in one video

If the entry video got a copyright claim and was unable to be used and he actually meant what he said he should have released another video that people could stitch. I'm so mad at myself that I thought he might actually do something different.

3:54 that’s sza’s snooze I love that song

He realized that his brand is not getting the attention so he NEEDS people with huge following to promote him. Unfortunately his followers continue to ignore the fact that he only cares about how much money he can get from them.

I think we're starting to see some of the larger consequences to his professional life from all the "scandals" he's been in previously. It really seemed like he thought he got off scott free after his shitty "apologies" and that his platform didn't take as big a hit as it should have. Now is when his influence and platform are going to show the hits he's taken.

Of course he didn't say the age limit, he was hoping some underage guys would enter so he could creep on them.

Maybe it's just me but I can't even feel bad for people in this situation knowing who this man is and what he has done. If anything I'm now side eyeing the people who got picked before I used to follow some of them

i feel like he chose mostly influencers bc he’d know they wouldn’t cancel. an average person could’ve possibly back out last minute due to multiple unexpected obligations an influencer doesn’t have 🤷🏾‍♀️ influencer or not it should be abt the diversity. this day and age almost everyone is an influencer to some degree i just wanna see representation

I have soo many fav KZreadrs but if there’s a new tea spill video I’m watching it first. Love how you approach & discuss drama girly !

dont get me wrong, james still has a fanbase (somehow lmao) and will probably make 6 figures with this brand, but even he must know hes WAY past his peak… these paints seem sorta gimmicky to me

idk if this is just me but my youtube shows a chatgpt button on the top left corner of this video and when I click on it, it summarizes this whole video in 5 bullet points, like what the heck??

This influencers never take responsibility, just like my wife that refuse take responsibility to admit that she thought she married a body builder but instead got herself a Potatoe.😅😅

James isn't getting a dime from me. Absolutely not. I'm still waiting for Chris Hansen to show up and tell him to put the face paints down and "Take a seat".

It’s the way he decided to release face paints like their revolutionary.

It's also upsetting to not see anyone older chosen either. Doesn't sit right with me the chosen candidates were not more diverse.

Why is this even a thing? We are in a time of high inflation, banks are going under, and the cost of living is skyrocketing. Is JC seriously thinking people are going to buy his products especially in this economic environment? How out of touch can you be?

The model looked like a child had been let loose with face paints and the 5:58 look just looks like bird poo eyeshadow

His makeup sounds like a title for an Ed, Edd, and Eddy episode. Like paintED just before the show starts lol

"Of course I am going to invite some pros to the set, because I want some beautiful makeup looks (...)" - so what he's saying is he wants people of all skill levels to apply, but he will think their work is s*it? How benevolent of him to still allow it.

He should just try what Jeffree Star did and move somewhere for a few years and disconnect except not come back

I'm starting to think JC doesn't have the team behind the scenes he used to have back in 2018 so that's why the marketing and publicity is lacking

It shows these influencers are in a diff world. To him a lowly 45,000 followers is an everyday mom.

About face makes similar products and is a great brand they sell it at Ulta

He wanted the free advertising, people had to tag him on tiktok and everything. He knew from the beginning the type he would pick and just used everyone else. He’s not paying for advertising (which is why there’s no buzz about his brand) and so he’s using everything he can to get the word out for free. I bet most of those influencers are already in LA to hence saving him money cause he doesn’t have to fly them out/pay for hotels.

He did this BS with his influencer “reality show.” All of the contestants already had fairly sizable followings. James doesn’t care unless you can make him money and people with established audiences have a better shot at that. He’s gross.

He probably did want small creators and lesser known people, but realized people weren’t really that interested and decided to go with huge followings for more exposure

I think he really forked this up. He should've stuck to his promise and pick regular people. If I was one of those people who submitted makeup looks I would feel that my trust was BETRAYED and exploited. I would not give this brand a time of day after that, just because of utter disappointment. His brand would really benefit if he kept his promise. Forking his fans over is a dick move, especially given that his brand has not even launched yet.
