For her next look book she needs to either do Heathers or Regina George because Jesus - she suits them roles far better than anything off Gossip Girl. Put it that way.
And another thing, I’ve been watching Freddy for a year or so. I didn’t mind her around two years ago. I’m a girly girl myself but some of the things she puts together are a bit much. Things don’t match, the colour palette is very limited and it would do her the world of good to start implementing some colour.
Try doing girly styles using richer colours and it could work.
But it just feels like since she’s come into more money up she just buys any random thing and tosses together anything because she knows the kids will watch her then brand her “real life Barbie”.
And I know a lot of people disliked the singing video she did but I generally didn’t mind it. It was something different, cringeworthy. But I didn’t mind. I actually enjoy singing myself / had lessons when I was growing up and that song isn’t hard to sing at all. I know Freddy used to be an actress, I’ve seen a video of her where she’s about to jump off a bridge. It was like some suicide awareness video. It was alright, nothing special.
Honestly, I feel like before she started Youtube, she had the goal to become a actor or singer or a model. I’m the same age as Freddy and I was in drama school in my teens for few years. It’s a tricky business to get into professionally and you need certain connections to land roles. I mean she’s in London, must be very competitive.
I recall her stating before youtube she was very depressed and I’m pretty sure it was due to not going anywhere with her modelling or acting. She only went to college and she would’ve been in her early twenties when she started youtube. So she never went to university, so she must’ve been working or on Universal Credit for a while.
What I honestly, honestly, think Freddy does now is that since she’s saving up for some Belgravia house or fancy luxe London apartment (why would you want to own four walls I’ll NEVER know). But she buys things for the videos, shows her outfits off and then sends them back. Gets money back, makes cash off youtube and her links. So, she must be saving up. I think she keeps one or two things at very best. Wouldn’t surprise me if she does a Klarna order and sends it back so she doesn’t have to pay a thing.
That’s why she’s still with her parents. I do believe she pays her way. I’m pretty sure she does, her persona is a barbie princess catty mean girls queen. So she is in a way acting for the camera, I never take it too literally. I don’t think Freddy is as thick as people make out. It’s all for show.
She’s found a niche and basically RAN with it.
I feel like Coco will be the one who makes it if I’m honest. She’s got more charisma.
And as for that bloody bedroom. I can’t bare it! It’s just super tacky. It isn’t sophisticated in the slight and imagine how much noise she must make up there? Looks like an attic bedroom. My aunt has something similar.
But I think she hasn’t put that much effort into getting nicer things because she’s saving for her new place. I’ll give it another year or two before she finds somewhere.
