Trisha Paytas responds to Colleen Ballinger sharing and mocking private photos YouTube: blndsundoll4mjThe backlash against Colleen Ballinger is continuing to mount after a series of grooming allegations surfaced followed by a bizarre ukulele apology. Now, Trisha Paytas is speaking up on her part in the Ballinger story. Colleen Ballinger, best known for her \u2018Miranda Sings\u2019 character, has been hit hard with backlash following multiple former fans coming forward with inappropriate stories surrounding the content creator. From bullying to grooming to sharing unsolicited nudes, Ballinger has been accused of quite a bit. Her response? A musical number that many feel doesn\u2019t deserve the title of an apology and mocks those affected by Ballinger\u2019s actions. Now, fellow YouTuber and media personality Trisha Paytas is speaking up on the controversy. Paytas makes her stance clear in the video posted to YouTube. She is unimpressed by Ballinger\u2019s dismissal of her former fans and disgusted to find out that her private photos have been publicly shared and mocked. \u201cIt\u2019s very serious and it\u2019s a topic I don\u2019t take lightly and I can\u2019t take lightly,\u201d Paytas said, explaining that she has taken a step back from internet drama but feels the current issue goes beyond that. Paytas admitted she feels embarrassed to have found out Ballinger was sharing her explicit photos with underage fans, all the while acting as Paytas\u2019 friend. \u201cI do not condone at all unsolicited nudes [being sent]. Sex worker or not, I think using someone\u2019s nudes as a way to hurt them, make fun of them, make light of them [or] be mean is the lowest form of intelligence,\u201d Paytas said. \u201cI think that\u2019s so inhumane. I think that\u2019s so disgusting.\u201d Paytas claimed that there were multiple occasions in which Ballinger used her private photos for a joke. Paytas also added that when she asked Ballinger about the controversy, Ballinger denied everything and assured her that she had not shared any photos. When Paytas ultimately saw evidence of Ballinger\u2019s actions, she said her \u201cheart was racing\u201d and felt sick to her stomach. She said, \u201cThat\u2019s probably the worst I\u2019ve seen from someone that I\u2019ve considered a friend. That\u2019s pretty barbaric, that\u2019s pretty misogynistic, and it is downright cruel.\u201d Prior to Ballinger\u2019s backlash, Paytas had teamed up with the YouTuber to make a podcast together \u2014 a series not expected to return anytime soon. \u201cShe does not exist to me anymore,\u201d Paytas concluded, praised by fans for her mature, well-thought, and genuine response.
