Emma Johnson (Emma's Rectangle)

It’s also scary that she thinks eating slightly less protein for a week would seriously affect her body composition. Yes over time it would but a week realistically isn’t very long.
Her mentality towards everything went from very healthy to start with to now very scary and unhealthy!! It’s actually worrying cause you shouldn’t beat yourself up for just eating some yummy food while on holiday, something you do very rarely anyway. Holidays are meant to be enjoyed! That alongside the restrictive and over exercising behaviour is setting such a bad example and is very scary to watch! I just hope she sees it soon and gets help

Completly agree !! Every single vlog is her juat complaining about everything and of course her period, steph Tom's (pretty sure it was her ) actually said in a video once that being an influencer is an easy job and alot easier than alot of other peoples, at this point I dont know why emma still does this cause she does nothing but moan about the job she loovveesss soooooo much

She looks great but I must admit I've really went off her since she's lost the weight. I dunno just dont find her as relatable anymore

Seeing a lot of these kinda comments whenever someone clearly overweight decides to shed some pounds to be healthier and happier. It's just really petty She could've milked her weightloss a lot more than she has on her channels.

Honestly lockdown has highlighted Emma needs to give up her YouTube 'career'. She needs something in her life to give her structure, her channel growth has been stagnant for a very long time and her 'content' is dire. As someone who used to genuinely enjoy her channel but has now unfollowed, Emma it's time to throw in the towel and see YouTube as a hobby as your heart is definitely not in it.

I’m so sick of hearing her talking about not getting videos up It’s like 20% of each weekly vlog

Literally what does she do with her time? She needs to treat YouTube like a full time job, which it is for her... wake up, do your work, finish at 5 and THEN do your 600 workouts and stew your apples. If you’re not uploading videos how can you expect to grow?

 

[Cutlass]

She doesn't care about the planet, she's always going on holidays travelling miles and miles on planes.

... How are we meant to get anywhere? Spend weeks on a boat?
Y’all act like you can’t care about the planet unless you live like monks. One person going on holiday and eating a ham sandwich isn’t the problem. Capitalism is.

Why is she constantly posting calories burned after working out I feel like it’s really irresponsible. You can post about workouts etc but I think numbers and calories should really be kept to yourself especially when you have a platform like this with lots of young girls and boys watching. It’s very easy to become obsessed and enter ED territory. Does no one call her out on this? Posting these numbers serves no purpose. No one gets anything from it.

I used to watch her videos before any others but recently I'm noticing I'm less and less bothered about seeing them. Too much of the same stuff over and over again, her style is becoming stranger and stranger and the babying of Tim is really getting on my nerves - you are in your 20's, you are not 7.

 

[dinkybird]

I feel weird about her Project 10 Pan update. It’s not like she hasn’t received loads of makeup in PR, so for her too be like ‘I’m so proud of myself for not buying any makeup’ is a bit weird. Like you’ve received tons anyway? Of course you wouldn’t have felt the urge so much because you were receiving new things constantly?

And any makeup she did want, she begged in every video until she was sent it for free, like the Jamie stuff...

 

[SequinLover]

Literally her goals for 2021 video was just laughable. Going on about how she wants to grow her channel - she's been saying that for the past 5 years! Saying how she wants to hit 250k on You Tube and how she thinks she needs to be more consistent with her videos (no shit sherlock!) but then in today's Vlog days she won't get a video up because she's been too busy (doing what exactly we are in lockdown?) but then later in the Vlog contradicts herself by saying it's been a slow boring week.

Apparently she is going to focus on more exercise videos and what I eat in a day because we all love those

And the blatent begging for a collab with Tea Pigs - desperate much?!

Oh and I can't wait for her e-recipe book - I wonder if it'll be called 1000 ways to stew an apple.

 

[jjeett]

Stewing apples is pretty time consuming guys

Place your bets!

Why should she when she doesn't engage.

 

[Purpleshampoo]

Also does anybody else think shea desperate for jamie Genevieve to send her PR with the amount she keeps going on about loving her and wanting to try it all LOL

 

[Bilbo16]

As if she gives a shit about diversity in campaigns she accepts...

She’s only acknowledged it cos she’s been personally called out. What gets me about that campaign is not only it’s it not diverse, but Emma isn’t even vegan?! So they overlooked genuine vegan influencers to book Emma?!

 

[ejej123]

Second you on the Helen anderson too! So Emma’s uploaded a ‘what to wear to work’ video. Remember when Helen did one and got ROASTED about it?! you don’t even leave the house to go to work stop telling us what to wear to work!!!

 

[Goldengirl88]

I can’t upload again hehe there’s just no time I still have to do my 2 hour work out 1 hour walk and yoga.

these apples won’t stew themselves

I used to quite like Emma (and I guess I still do) but her work ethic is pretty much non-existent. Imagine if she worked a proper job and came up with these ridiculous excuses for not meeting the bare minimum of expectations...

Sorry, I haven't finished the report, I had to count my lipsticks. I have 389 btw, hehe!

I haven't got anything planned for the lesson today, kids, I was too busy stewing apples...

Oops, I deleted the file...oh well, I'll just post a photo on Instagram and call it a day #sobusy #stressful...

 

[eselde]

Long time lurker and now not the biggest fan of Emma because of her atrocious work ethic and laziness (genuinely got to a point where I felt like she influenced me to not give a shit about anything).

I can’t stay quiet anymore because for someone that prides herself on her eating/cooking/food related content I can’t even begin to list the absolutely foul things she does in her kitchen that drives me up the wall. First of all, every single time that girl prepares sweet potato the sweet potato is bone dry and still has mud on it. So does she wash them?? I’m presuming not. Same with all the other veg and fruit she prepares, never a wet or washed vegetable to be seen. And I refuse to believe this girl cares enough to wash them when she buys them because she’s too disorganised for that. Not only that but also in today’s recycled what I eat in a day video, she smothers pesto on her raw (albeit frozen) cod with a spoon and then dips said spoon back into the pesto pot foul

 

[justbecasual]

Well, she got there in the end, the elusive 200k that she so desperately wanted. Number driven Emma. Goal driven Emma. Obsessive Emma. I mean, she did it by doing a giveaway that people had to subscribe to her YouTube channel to win, during December when everyone on IG is doing giveaway, so it’s hardly an honest, hard-working subscriber win but hey, they all do it.

I've had to unsub because of all this dieting business. I was in the absolute depths of my ED five years ago and she reminds me of how I was then, I still have the tendancies and I find her sooo triggering.

Girl needs to seek professional help! As someone stated, I can't believe her PT is allowing this? I quit "the gym" (the one she uses, different location) I used to go to when I started remission but still wanted to exercise so joined a smaller independant gym and I felt like my PT there actually cared about my welfare. She's actually still one of my closest friends now.

That was me. And as somebody who has also had an ED or ED tendencies since their early teens (I'm now well beyond that) I recognise so much of myself when I was at my worst in her behaviour and the way she speaks about food. I can literally see the ED cogs turning in her brain. The aversion to oil, the way she seeks out so many lower calorie alternatives that likely have all kinds of artificial shit in them purely to lower the calorie count (all her sweeteners, syrups, low fat dairy, biscuits etc.). I honestly can't believe her PT is validating her in this way. I mean, I can - as somebody else pointed out, many PTs are so deeply entrenched in diet culture themselves they probably don't see an issue, but it is very concerning.

Also, I know this has been spoken about so many times but WHY do she and her boyfriend speak to each other in those wretched baby voices?! It's so creepy.

 

[SequinLover]

It was blatently obvious in this weeks vlog that the fat gain did bother her as otherwise she wouldn't have kept going on about it over and over again.
