With over 16 million subscribers, the mogul has a loyal core of fans, and his participation in Shane Dawson\u2019s wildly popular series \u2018The Secret World of Jeffree Star\u2019 gave people a new insight into his crazy life behind the scenes. However, he\u2019s also been caught up in a fair amount of controversy over the years, getting into drama with countless other prominent creators in the beauty community including James Charles, Manny MUA, and more. But in an interview with E! News\u2019 Amanda Williams and Cydney Contreras, the YouTuber revealed that he\u2019s actually distancing himself from the beauty community. After saying he\u2019s \u201cfocused on positivity,\u201d Star added: \u201cI know that may sound like a crock of sh*t from one of the most dramatic people in the makeup industry, but I\u2019m generally in a really good place mentally, and I definitely wasn\u2019t before.\u201d When asked what he thought of his \u2018controversial\u2019 image, Jeffree claimed: \u201cI definitely think it\u2019s fair because I used to entertain and respond to so much, even though I probably shouldn\u2019t have.\u201d \u201cI honestly keep to myself and I don\u2019t really engage in the beauty world anymore,\u201d the beauty YouTuber continued, adding, \u201cI have zero contact with all of those people.\u201d He also claimed he wants \u201cpeople to see [his] growth.\u201d Jeffree was involved in a serious car accident back in April in Wyoming, causing him \u201cexcruciating pain\u201d due to a broken back.
