I think she's really annoying personally. Such an edgelord.

Searched and couldn't find a thread, so I thought I'd make one. Does anyone watch her? Her videos always cheer me up.
She makes videos about goth fashion and regularly calls out dodgy brands. She's also done some decorating videos and talks about tattoos and piercings.
The goth style hasn't been my thing for many years and I never did pull it off
but I still love her videos. She comes across as warm and personable and just like a normal gal and her partner and daughter are both so sweet. She engages with her followers in the comments quite a bit which is really nice to see - it seems to be that other youtubers only respond to criticism, but Emily is really nice and chatty. Her lockdown livestreams are fun to watch and as tragic as it sounds, I always feel less alone having them on in the background when living alone during the pandemic is getting to me!
I really don't have a bad word to say about her and that's very unusual for me! I'm normally very judgemental

Again in her latest she was talking about money problems over and over again. I totally get it is relevant now in the crisis we are all facing but...after a Punk Rave haul video? I probably should step away from this rave thread 
she doesn't deserve any negativity but I just can't help feel she's quietly hinting for money from subscribers (well she is, that's what her Patron giveaways are created for).
She can go to charity shops for clothing to show others goth items are easy to find for cheap, or a Vinted haul for 2nd hand goodies, it doesn't all have to be Punk Rave or Mary Wyatt and maxing out our PayPal Credit for a new outfit.

Fun fact... she didn't quit her piercing job... she didn't turn up one day when she had people booked in which pissed the owner of the studio off because she didn't prewarn him and nobody could get hold of her so when she then tried to turn up a few days later she was told she was no longer welcome (pretty sure she was self employed and rented the studio space from him)

I own a small business and vend at conventions all over the country. She stopped by my stand at a horror con one time and I couldn’t wait until she left! She’s so loud and obnoxious. Really wanted to be the centre of attention even though most people clearly didn’t have a clue who she was. Literally used the ‘I’m an influencer’ line to get something for nothing. She’s a pain in the backside and another freeloader. She wasn’t happy I wasn’t fawning over her and giving her things

Yes! After watching another you tuber spending tens of thousands renovating their kitchen only to be miserable, it was so refreshing watching her DIY her kitchen! She was so grateful, it was lovely to see!

I know this is a rave thread but it really does irk me the way she constantly mentions being skint, in her overdraft, maxed out Paypal Credit and thanking Klarna etc. She said it several times in the new hospital video (doesn't she work pretty much full time at a bar now? And YT 2 days or so a week? Surely she'd be on sick pay for the bar job at least). Her ordeal was awful and I hope she feels better really soon, but her audience isn't there to pay her way through life. We're going to end up with another It's Black Friday if she doesn't calm down with it. IBF was the only goth Youtuber I watched for so long but the never ending ebegging became so tiring. And now she's had 2 kids, is still jet-setting across the world to go to festivals and whatnot, still complaining about NZ and trying to get out again then still saying she hasn't enough for food and spent all her savings on plane tickets so people could send her money...come on. She bought a car for her 3 month jaunt to Scotland recently so they could travel around, the woman is ridicuous. I still like Emily Boo. But the woe is me with her finances needs to be a little less public. Everyone is struggling now, and if she chooses to not work more than 4 or so days a week, it's not surprising. It's not like she has over a million views per video.

Her latest video 
I just want to give her a hug

I loved the download vlogs too even though I am def not cut out for a festival! Emily is the person I actually look forward to watching on YouTube because I find her relatable and interesting (Im not goth/alternative in anyway but enjoy learning about aspects of the lifestyle through her). Recently though I’ve had to skip when she’s talked about her celeb crushes because I feel like it goes a bit far for me sometimes. I was watching a video where she was talking about a meet and great with motionless in white and blurting out something sexual to the lead singer, which although I’m sure she said he didn’t hear may have made made him feel really uncomfortable if he had of heard…

Awww yay! Thanks for starting a thread for Emily. I love watching her! I'm a bit of a 'goff' myself so I do follow a lot of alternative Youtubers but I do lurk on some other influencers pages on here
Edit: Just to add. She's also an amazing influencer for not breaking the rules during the last year

Hope she's ok, but I do loathe the 'heres a pic of me in hospital, but I'm not telling you why' posts

I've been catching up on her videos today because I've been feeling a bit down and I'm so happy that she's training to be a piercer! I really want to take a trip to Ipswich (I think that's where she is?) and get pierced by herAwww yay! Thanks for starting a thread for Emily. I love watching her!

I really like Emily Boo, she seems genuine to me which is refreshing.

I'm so glad people are finally starting to realise what she's like. She's honestly such a beg and does the altern community no favours.

Yeah that was odd and seemed out of character, but at least she owned it I guess. Maybe she was hungover or hangrey.
I think there was a lot more walking than she anticipated and she probably didn't drink enough water/ eat proper food.Camping in a music festival is my idea of hell, but I actually quite enjoyed the vlogs! Definitely confirmed I never want to go to one

Been watching Emily for years and she's one of the only YouTubers I've stuck with!
Her hardworking and genuine attitude is refreshing (she worked at Wetherspoons until recently!) And there's no pretence, she feels like she'd be a good friend IRL
Not a huge fan of all the facial tattoos, (but that's purely a personal preference) and if she's happy with them that's all that matters!

Yes, same! The 'Daddy, look it's our favourite things' little comment had me tear up!Usually I find other people's kids annoying, but her daughters reaction to the DIY game room was ADORABLE!She was so grateful and appreciative and Emily managed to do it on such a small budget
