YouTubers unite!
In the last week, the news has been flooded with information on fifty people being arrested for a bribery scandal to get their kids into high-end colleges. Lori Loughlin played a massive role in the scandal, while Felicity Huffman remained in the shadows of the scam. YouTubers have a great time making videos on the subject.
Even Loughlin’s co-stars have weighed in on the situation, but Lori’s youngest daughter, OliviaJade’ss fellow YouTubers, have spoken out too. Harlow Brooks, Kylie Dennison, Emma Monden, and USC student Stephanie Kreimerman gave their take on the scandal. Check out the videos below, along with brief breakdowns of the videos. Olivia had better watch out because these YouTubers hate her guts!
Harlow Brooks
The news began with one of Olivia Jade’s former classmates and a fellow YouTuber, Harlow Brooks, speaking out about her short experience at the private school the Giannulli sisters attended. She says in the introduction of her video that she was always suspicious that both girls got into the same college.
Here’s what she had to say in full:
She adds in a follow-up video that Olivia Jade’s classmates messaged her that they were “threatening” to sue her. Talk about rich kid talk that they can’t enforce with mummy and daddy’s stolen cash. Here’s that video:
Harlow said in the video that she was only at the school a week and was looked down upon because she was middle-class.
Kylie Dennison
As a former college athlete, YouTuber Kylie Dennison knows how much time it takes to be on a college sports team. She’s run her channel Kiki Chanel since 2010. She explains that her Freshman college roommate was a rower, and she’d watch her get up every morning to train.
Here’s what she had to say:
Emma Monden
Emma Monden wanted to go to USC all her life. She worked extremely hard, only to get rejected. Emma admits that it’s hard to accept someone wealthy would cheat their way into a school.
As someone who has tried getting into USC, Ms Monden admits that it’s disappointing that the college admissions system is flawed. Emma mentions that she wasn’t sure whether Olivia and Bella knew about their parents’ crime. But she says she has every reason to believe they knew based on what she’s seen. Here’s the full video:
Stephanie Kreimerman
USC student Stephanie Kreimerman voiced her dismay at the crime. She said in her video that it took her three tries to get into USC. Stephanie says that college admissions for the average person are $80, which is nothing to people like Olivia Jade, who has 1.9M followers as a YouTuber.
Here’s what Stephanie had to say:
Stephanie says she understands Olivia’s upbringing as the daughter of a famed actress and fashion designer. But she admits that Olivia is ungrateful for taking the spot of a person who worked hard.
She also says that the school should make examples of students who cheat their way into their programs. Stephanie’s right because there are people that deserve to be there. Yet some filthy rich kid took a place they did not earn.
Conclusion
We don’t blame these YouTubers for feeling the way they do. They worked hard to get into their colleges, and to have a celebrity’s wealthy child taking a spot from someone who deserves it sucks. It brings a new perspective to white, privileged, rich kids. It gives wealthy people who do the right thing a bad name. Also, it gives people who work hard their entire lives a reason to hate people of wealth because of what people like Loughlin, Huffman, and Giannulli do.
