After one HELLUVA week in the beauty influencer world, the woman who kicked off James Charles‘ cancellation has spoken out… again.
Tati Westbrook has made another video reacting to the downfall of James, titled, “Why I Did It…”
She is explaining, yet again, why she decided to come forward and expose her ex-friend James Charles.
But all in all, she is asking for an end to the abuse against James.
“I don’t hate James Charles. I don’t want you guys hating on him… It’s painful to watch someone that you have cared for be dragged and to know that this started because of me,” she said.
“I don’t think anyone deserves that. I think people deserve a wake-up call and people deserve to be called out for actions. I think someone’s got to do it. I hope that this inspires parents to have more conversations with their kids, because we are losing that.”
“I can’t say this enough,” she later addsed, “I love James Charles. I loved him from the moment I met him. He was like this underdog kid that everyone took a s–t on. That’s how I felt for a long time.
“So I felt like I needed to help him somehow, like I needed to help him because it was helping me. I know a lot of people aren’t going to understand, or they think this is fake, or that they think that there was this big agenda or anything. There’s not.
“If I could give all of the new success back, and the new subscribers back, I would.”
