Tim and Ella…Heze was clearly scripted and uncomfortable with having to lie in order to backtrack his honest comment about wanting his own bedroom.
Here’s an idea. If you are concerned that something your kids say isn’t what you want to put across to viewers, don’t post it. Tim, that’s called EDITING. You should try it, I hear it’s very popular with YouTubers.
What you shouldn’t be doing is making your kids do scripted backtracking of their comments. This is not good for them, they will get to a point where they are afraid to speak their own minds, for fear of having to deal with your disappointment and instructions on rectifying it later on. It’s not for Heze to think before he speaks about how viewers will interpret his comments, that’s for you to do, when reviewing the footage. You either allow him to speak his own thoughts on camera, or you don’t.
A combination of shoving anything on YouTube, with no thought to how it’s portraying yourselves, and then dealing (badly) with the aftermath seems to be a current pattern (Astro gone to a ‘farm’, the hospital diva tantrum).
Might also want to correct the kids…God isn’t providing the new house…it’s mostly a raise in value from a house that their grandparents provided, with a little additional funding from the children being exploited on camera and Heze in particular being exploited with the Nike deal. The poor boy genuinely thinks his football is what attracted Nike to him.
I watched ‘go green with the Grimwades’.
What a shower of shite that is, I guess it’s aimed at toddlers so the standard doesn’t need to be high. Ella really can’t sing, some of the kids can and have potential if they had lessons. Tim, bizarrely, proved he can talk like a white man for Channel 5, yet turns his voice Black for YouTube. Very odd. It’s not as if he’s got the patois as a transferred accent from spending vast amounts of time with Ella, she does it much less than him. A lot of what Ella and the kids use ‘sick’, ‘isn’t it’ etc are more ‘london’ that ‘black’ to my ear. It’s mainly Tim that seems to have an issue with his colour, you should be proud to be a white British man Tim, there is nothing wrong with that, it’s actually insulting to speak patois when it’s not your cultural background, people feel protective of their culture and most importantly it’s ‘theirs’ not yours. Ethnic background is what you are born into, or at least where you have spent formative years…you can’t just wake up one morning and decide you are Jamaican.
