Grackle #2

[CabalofBolorneaise]

She’s hinting at oral b in her stories now to send her a new toothbrush

I really like Grace but I feel like I’ll be unsubbing/unfollowing in the next few months. Every YouTuber hits a point where they lose integrity because it becomes a job and they care about earning money more than making good content. I feel Grace is becoming more like this every day

I have noticed she’s tagging a lot of companies generally in her posts. I get when it’s her outfits to save her 37,000 “Where’s your top from?” comments but there’s a lot of tagging oral b, dyson etc happening. I’m not sure she’s quite on the sell out point yet, and I did think her comment about a spon the other day was a joke, but it’s a big jump for her.

Saaammeeeeee i turned off half way through. So flat, watching her in her kitchen was fine during lockdown since we were all doing the same (most of us anyway!) but now there’s so much she could be doing it’s just so boring to watch.

She really needs to switch up the content. I like a baking video as much as the next person but it defo feels like she’s reverted to lockdown 1 content but without the funny stuff

Chloe may be exempt but I don't see how it has anything to do with Grace, she can't control her sister

i would, i personally consider any religion that teaches that women are second class beings made to serve men is sexist and misogynistic, she has every right to follow if she wants but rational criticism of her religion is allowed. people aren’t protected from “judgement” just because they believe in god and debate and criticism is NOT religious intolerance

I am not supporting the religion, I am choosing to not condemn the person that believes in it. Grace herself should be protected from the awful judgemental people on this thread. It's her you are all talking about and none of you would be saying it if she was a young Muslim woman getting married to her first boyfriend and nor should you. People are entitled to follow their religion and embrace the culture of it. If you have a problem with a particular religion or subsect of a religion because of misogyny, maybe don't aim that ire at a young woman

Grace is pretty tall, she can carry more weight for a healthy BMI.
There was a tv show a while back, something liked "secrets of the superkinny", and it did tests that showed a lot of thinner people do incidental movement and burn ALOT of calories throughout the day-fidgeting, cleaning, gardening. She quite often says she goes on walks with friends and always seems to be on the move.
There's this thing called your basal metabolic rate, which takes in to account your height, gender and age (she's tall and young) and this is the number of calories your body needs to just exist. There's also TDEE, which is Total Daily Energy Expenditure. If you're moving around a lot, or even just standing up a lot (like standing in a kitchen baking), your expenditure is greater.

She seems to eat a lot of snacks and sweets, but her meals don't seem that big. Andsome of her snacks arelow calorie- quavers, popcorn.

I think it looks more than it is because she showed a whole packet of bagels, two different jars of chocolate spread, several boxes of biscuits and packets of cookie dough, a load of cookies she made for her tiktok, a whole load of donuts, dinner for her whole family, a big bar of chocolate,big bowl of popcorn

Yes I agree. I love Mia and feel like although YouTube is a job for her she has a full life outside of YouTube with friends etc, has now moved out and does a range of videos that don't revolve around her life.

I don't feel like Grace's heart is in it.

Going by their siblings I don't have high hopes, they were all married off in a few months. Honestly nothing against it, but how well do you actually get to know someone in a few months. My grandmother always said the first months are a bliss, and then the relationship starts.

 

[polarbearninja]

Who do you think it is? Spill the beans! I am a grackle fan girl and I need to know the tea!

People figured out who it was and she deleted comments and I think he even unfollowed her on IG so he couldn't be found again.

I saw who it was but I'm going to respect her privacy and it's not very exciting anyway.. it's not anyone we would have seen before. He is Christian and he did go to Durham though.

 

[knivesnflowers]

if you're gonna monetise being single then i think the least you owe your audience is to tell them you no longer are. i like the way mia maples has gone about her engagement but they've been dating years so it seems less sudden. i think a lot of people who aren't aware of how her religion influences relationships would disapprove of how quickly things are moving for her if she did get engaged soon

I loved watching Grack pre-pandemic. I didn't mind her videos during the start of the pandemic and lockdowns but I started tuning out then. I honestly have no idea what her latest videos are but I've always found her to be very sweet, and her closeness with her family admirable. She's just very charismatic, and she obviously had star potential as a model. As for her being in her mid-20s now but still acting much like a teen, I cannot really say anything about that. I'm older, and I'm still a teen at heart + 10 years. If she's happy with the guy, good for her. She doesn't need to tell random strangers on the internet everything.

 

[butterfliesandhurricanes]

What was it about and happening?

Her most recent one is what the screenshot above is from. It’s not remotely sad, it’s just a collection of happy pictures set to music. I’ve no idea what that poster is referring to lol it’s a happy video

 

[oshare]

I wonder if she's a bit disappointed with how her channel is going in general? I wonder if she was a bit upset about her whole grackle tries thing, that turned into something quite underwhelming. As in, it didn't get many views. They were some of her least watched videos. She put a lot of effort into it, and for it to end up not doing well must have been upsetting for her. Like.. finally try something new, people don't like it. I would have been upset myself. I wish she hadn't given up so quickly though. I think being on YT has come very easily for her. She never had to push and grind that hard and it's starting to show now. Some creators have really had to hussle a lot to get to where they are now, but she got popular very quickly. I think when something doesn't work she quickly drops it and goes back to her safe space. It's really sad actually because I think she really enjoyed that short series a lot. If it's something she likes, why not keep doing it? Just stick with it. It takes a while for people to start picking things up, for you to get a new fresh audience who likes you for that special kind of content. That's just how things work on youtube, you constantly have to try and evolve or else people run away and nobody new will come in return. That is how some people (like Jenn Im for example) have been able to stick with YT for such a long time.
You see the same thing with the old brit cew. It came to them so easily, they are all failing right now because they are not able to hussle and work for it. It's pretty sad because they have some of the easiest jobs in the world.

Just been watching one of her recent vlogs and she said she needs an outfit for her sisters wedding?does that mean she’s not one of Chloe bridesmaid? If not I’m quite surprised

Thought she was already married?

 

[HilaQueen]

Whilst her brother and sister married quickly, I don't think they married their first-ever boyfriend and girlfriend I'm pretty sure they dated around a bit before meeting their partners.

After all, they're older than Grace - do people really think they stayed at home until their late twenties completely single that whole time, and then the first people they ever dated they married!? If Grace is dating, she's probably just dipping her toes in the water as her sister and brother did at her age. My Christian friends have all had multiple boyfriends, just never slept with them. Didn't marry any of them!

 

[Felix08]

Thats a bit much.. leave your teddy at home when youre 24..

 

[emm]

I think Grace seemed disappointed with the pallet and like once she saw she wasn't getting what she hoped she was just going through the motions for the rest of the video.

Also, aren't return pallets pretty know for being crap anyway? can't have been a surprise now:?

 

[opal73]

What? There are so many reasons why a divorce is often difficult, for a start you have to have been married for over a year to even be allowed to get divorced, secondly both parties have to agree to it, if one refuses then it instantly becomes much more complicated, solicitors have to get involved (which will cost you) and you could even end up having to go to court if it cannot be resolved.
It’s often not easy at all lmao.

Also, isn't divorce heavily discouraged in their type of Christianity? There's probably a lot of pressure to stay together and have lots of kids

 

[irunforfun]

I don't understand how people always compliment her on her portion sizes and how ~she stays so slim despite eating SO much~. She eats so little! Those breakfasts with cereal and milk are such a baby portions, that bowl is literally so super tiny. I love that she eats just like a normal person, but complimenting her on her portion sizes I will never do.

This! I’ve always thought she eats small portions and when she and her dad do reviews, she takes a single tiny bite compared with her dad who eats the half she has given him. From what I can see from her recent video, she does not seem to eat what a standard woman would need which makes me think she is engaging a little in weight managing behaviours.

 

[Kittycat7]

Oooh I think it’s a guy!! Based on her recent photo uploads on Instagram. That looks like a man’s nail on the hand holding that fork!

Also looks very much like there’s only 2 of them…

 

[RobinsNest]

Yes this is it, to me it feels like she is still living in lockdown 1 tbh.
99% of her videos are filmed inside her house and every single one is the same

She seemed to go out more in lockdown. There were lots of complaints that she was meeting Honor and going to lots of drive throughs etc, and there were suggestions that viewers would appreciate more content from inside, how she could make being at home more interesting and fun.
Seems like she picked up on that, but several months too late.
