Colleen Ballinger: YouTube star writes song to respond to accusing fans
By Ian YoungsEntertainment reporter
YouTube star Colleen Ballinger has addressed accusations of toxic relationships with fans by posting a video in which She defends herself in a song while playing The Ukulele .
The US creator found fame with her Miranda Sings character from 2008.
Last week, that dozens of fans said they had been " bullied, intimidated, and embarrassed by Ballinger and members of her team".
, She Said people had been saying things that " aren't quite true".
Five former fans told Rolling Stone about being befriended by Ballinger, leading to interactions they told the magazine were " toxic, exploitative, and hurtful" including sending sexually suggestive messages and making jokes at their expense.
Posting her 10-minute song in response, Ballinger accepted that She " used to message my fans, but not in a creepy way like a lot of you are trying to suggest" adding: " It was more of a loser kind of way. "
She sang: " In The Beginning of my career I didn't really understand that maybe there should be some boundaries there. There were times in the DMs when I would overshare details of My Life , which was really weird of me.
" I haven't done that for years, you see, because I changed my behaviour and I took accountability. "
Ballinger has 8. 6 million subscribers and almost two billion views on YouTube, and 8. 1 million followers on Instagram.
In The Chorus , She sang that those who had aired grievances had boarded the " toxic gossip train" which is hurtling " down the tracks of misinformation" and She " won't survive in the crash".
She Said their " goal is to ruin The Life of the person you despise" and " it doesn't matter that these things aren't true".
She continued that everyone now believes She is " The Type of person who manipulates and abuses children".
" So I just wanted to say the only thing I've ever groomed is my two Persian cats. I'm not a groomer. I'm just a loser who didn't understand I shouldn't respond to fans. And I'm not a predator even though a lot of you think so. "
She added that " sometimes people can make a mistake and it doesn't make them a horrible person".
However, her response, and the unconventional nature of a musical video, did not appease her following. Many on Social Media criticised and ridiculed its apparent flippancy and lack of sincerity.
