Okay, buckle up boys and girls because this is going to be a long post - I was up late last night reading all these threads (you are all INCREDIBLE), and I've managed to collate some thoughts.
1. Hunnybun is what, 27/28? Why is she targeting a 13 year old audience? Even Zoella grew out of that and re-branded herself. But also, if her audience is that young, does no one else find it uncomfortable about some of her content? I haven't watched her in years, but I saw someone mention that she was talking about drinking, her friends abortion and her favourite sex positions at one point? Obviously, you can't regulate everything that goes onto the internet, but it's like she's trying to market herself to CHILDREN (who, in my opinion, don't need to know about your favourite sex position) whilst making content for girls in their late teens and 20s. IT just doesn't add up, and that's what makes everything feel more fake to me.
2. If she is really, genuinely bothered about all the 'hate' she's getting (personally, I've seen NONE, apart from the occasional comment about her lips, but that's more calling her out for being a liar rather than calling her ugly or whatever) then she cann limit comments on her posts, she can blacklist certain words, OR she could actually take a social media break. I recently deleted all my social media for a week because it was stressing me out and I don't have any sort of online profile at all, so it's not hard. It made me feel so much better and I could come back with a clear head and focus on the actual issues. Also, if Baby Prince Spenny Boo is so bothered about her wellbeing, why isn't he stepping in? If I was acting like that and saying how badly social media had ruined my mental health, my boyfriend would personally deactivate everything and drag me to a therapist. No one wants to see their other half in pain or upset, so surely this wet wipe (who CRIED when she fell over) would be more active in his 'darling husband' role?
3. I've already spoken about the car crash that was that video, but again. That isn't a panic attack. No one sets up a camera and films themself having a panic attack. Firstly, that's so weird, and secondly, no one has the energy or mental capacity to do that when they're having a panic attack. I don't want to make this too personal and if anyone may be triggered by a description of a panic attack then please skip over this part, but the last time I had a panic attack I was pulling at my hair and scratching at my skin and I couldn't control my breathing to the point where my boyfriend literally had to grab hold of me and hug me so tight that I couldn't move, just to get me to snap out of it. Panic attacks are not in any way shape or form fun or cute, which is exactly the look she was going for. The whole thing was so disgustingly staged, and I personally find it so embarrassing for her as AN ALMOST 30 YEAR OLD WOMAN to be pretending to be that mentally ill.
4. She actively searches for hate. I'm sorry, if I had a social media presence, then the last thing I would be doing is googling my own name. It's just a recipe for disaster. Surely her management would have briefed this with her - it's like the number one rule of having a life online? I understand that there are urges, but just block these sites if you really don't want to see it. Again, you can restrict comments, turn them off completely, blacklist certain words, etc. so why on earth would she go out of her way to search for this unless she feeds on it? I know a couple of influencers have done this and have actually taken the criticism on board, which is healthy and it's made them see what people do/don't like about them, but there is nothing to like about Imogen because she's a compulsive liar. She honestly reminds me of that girl at school who would take every single comment as a bitchy one, even just down to 'oh you look really nice today!' - translated, in her mind, to 'oh you look vile the rest of the time!'
5. I don't entirely agree with criticising influences in the way that you would a brand, purely because there is a human element to it, but at the same time they are a brand? Comments about personal appearance shouldn't be allowed purely because that is just nasty, but no one is here calling her fat or ugly or anything like that (to my knowledge), people are merely commenting on her being a compulsive liar and just being a really shady person. Again, the allegations against her dad and Spenny Boo are dangerous, but even she has to admit that the evidence is overwhelming.
6. Going back to the video, I'm really pissed off about the ads, I'm not going to lie to you. Imogen, boo, if you're reading this, it's vile that you're making money off this. She knew that this kind of drama would attract so many views and she is MILKING it, her and Spenny probably woke up this morning and checked their bank accounts because they know they'll be raking it in after this. I think that's disgusting. No mention of where that money is going (her back pocket) and just shows that the whole thing was for attention. Whoever mentioned that it may be Muchansens (spelling?) I honestly think you're right. I'm in no way qualified to give this judgement, but she clearly has something really wrong with her to think that this behaviour is okay. She fails to see where she is in the wrong and just deletes any comment that calls her out on it.
7. Okay, last one. What really frustrates me about her is the general lack of self-awareness. Her posting a million storytimes just shows how chaotic and problematic she is; the constant lying was going to be brought up at some point, and in the video she didn't even show any hate comments or anything. What really worries me is that I actually think she believes all of this? Genuinely, I think she genuinely believes she's a victim of some superior motive trying to ruin her life, and that's why she can't take any responsibility for it.
Oh wow, I didn't realise how long this was. If you read all of it then props to you, but those are just my thoughts on her.
