I am so done with Jaclyn. She’s so dishonest and the fact she never addressed it proves clearly what kind of human being she is. I believe in karma and in few years Jaclyn will be someone of the past and hopefully forgotten…. Positive people is what we all need and Jaclyn is definitely far from a positive person.
She’s a pathological liar and a professional victim. For a good minute she was staying quiet and staying in her lane and tbh..I was looking into trying her product because they were on that Ulta days of beauty promotion. Right before that. She made the comment about standing by her lipsticks and she felt she was bullied into making a comment..I immediately was so repulsed she could possibly not see something wrong with the dozens of photos of those lipsticks. Influencers, who arguably could have faced backlash spoke out and even said their PR set was contaminated..so alll these people are liars? And you stand behind that actual tragedy of a launch?! It was nauseating at best seeing her defend that years later. That’s when I fully 10000% realized how much of a useless POS she is. She’s so removed from reality it’s insane. I will never give her a dime,I refuse to even look at her crap in Ulta, I will never watch anything she puts out because it boosts her engagement. Even her IG stories I avoid because she gets paid from them and it gets pushed out even more and I quickly avoid seeing them.
Sis it's a free country amd freedom of speech. She doesn't have to address anything to us. Its between jackly and the koze owner let her keep it private it's none of our business. I don't care honestly stop pressuring just let her live .
Watching the video of Jaclyn talking about KOZE, how she "looked up" so hard for a good name and now knowing this is the same woman who LIED through her teeth over Jaclyn Cosmetics being "her family business", hits different really. How this woman still has a following is beyond me.
Or she is not saying anything coz her team told her not to. You need to remember there’s a lot of business things that when they get called out for something, they have to figure out approach things like this. It doesn’t take the next day to say something which can be frustrating for people as they want answers. Also Jaclyn probably not posting in the brands account and has someone else to do the posts on there which most brands do. That girl who is calling out Jaclyn isn’t innocent in this situation. Just because you didn’t get time to have the brand name trademark doesn’t mean you can get away with people feeling sorry for you. If you wanted to create a brand you should’ve researched before making one and I’m petty sure most websites will say make sure you trademark the name by going to court. This woman knows what she is doing as she know jacyln is probably one of the most not liked influencer. Yeah it’s sad that her name got taken but it doesn’t mean that you should take ages or find out another brand with a same name, for you to finally realise that you need to trademark the name even tho it’s probably too late as the name is trademarked.
@@Claire_by_the_Seashore can’t believe those documents released saying she essentially had no involvement with the brand she’s basically just giving her name out for likeness..I was floored, but sadly, now it doesn’t really surprise me. It seems that she has no limits to what she will lie about.
Her fans/supporters are seriously so embarrassing lol like how can you support her after all the lies and shady things that she had done? They will only learn once they get scammed by her themselves, maybe not even then unfortunately 😬🥴
Her supporters and fans are the type of females that would marry a guy who would cheat on them within a month of the wedding.. That's *exactly* who her "supporters" and "fans" are..
I know right?! It's like the fans of the Ace Family. They're both constantly problematic and lie about everything and their fans refuse to hold them accountable. I genuinely don't know why ppl like either of them.
Of all the shitty things Jaclyn has done this bothers me the most. She could have used literally any other word/name and branding but she didn’t. She knew what she was doing and acted like it was some kind of flex to screw over a smaller brand. She’s so smug it’s disgusting.
The average cost to trademark something at a federal level through the USPTO is $250-$750 (source: legalzoom). Small businesses trademark all the time, and could even take out a loan if they can’t afford it. But $250+ to secure your brand far outweighs the financial burden of having to close down or rename and rebrand your products/business. Gotta take risks for rewards in the business world.
@@PlayAndRage it’s literally how business works. You have to have money to start a business you should be allocating money BEFORE U EVEN LAUNCH towards a trademark…I respect small businesses but you need to do what you gotta do to make money.
For real. I’m so tired of hearing this on EVERY single thing an “influencer” launches 🙄 but it’s especially infuriating with jaclyn, because she’s proven time and time again that she doesn’t do anything right and CONSTANTLY lies. “Family business” ?? I’m sure your whole heart and soul really went into that 😤
Regardless of whether a brand is formally trademarked or not, if you can prove you’ve been using the same for longer and that there is strong likelihood of the brands being confused with each other, you have standing. I don’t know how the fact that she’s in Canada plays in, but she may at least be able to get bought out by Jaclyn for rights to use the name.
Without a legally created trademark I’m afraid there isn’t much she can do. Biggest rule in the business world is to trademark everything as soon as you have it. It’s sucks this happened but she had years to do it and didn’t. It was only a matter of time until someone else took the name. 🤷🏼
@@adamlambboy8332es! My husband’s new business’s first action was to file trademark name. Without it you own nothing. This is exactly why it’s sooo important . If you can’t afford it, you are taking a huge business risk.
@@adamlambboy8332thank you!! She’s crying about it but this happened to em davies too trademark ur stuff or take the loss when someone eventually takes it for themselves
@@adamlambboy8332 That's not true, Kylie is excellent example of that. In 2015, Kylie Jenner tried to trademark Kylie(was not trademark at the time). Kylie Minogue, known as Kylie, said there would be confusion causing Kylie Jenner to lose the case. As OP said if the person has proof that they've been using it for a long time and there would be confusion, she has a chance. And as another said she might not be able to afford it.
Jaclyn is vindictive as hell. All she had to do was change the spelling to "KOEZEE" or some shit, and everything would have been fine. But she woke up and chose violence, just like always.
Oh no! That’s so sad for Kaylynn! Koze is really HER brand if you’re a follower of hers you know. Her videos about mental health truly helped me through one of the hardest depressions I’ve ever had. She’s such a sweet soul this makes me sad for her 😢
Kalyn Nicholson is one of the most genuine, hard-working UA-camrs. She’s been around for 10+ years and is on OG. Never had a scandal or any reason to. Always been so sweet and just herself. Always gives the best advice and spreads nothing but positivity. I haven’t watched her in years and I still recognized Koze right away as her brand. This is really messed up for those who don’t who Kalyn is.
Whenever Jaclyn says “I’ve been working on this brand for so long”, she probably lying. Jaclyn wants to prove she can be successful without using her own name? Her makeup brand was never actually hers. Her jewelry was a lie. It was made of materials she said it wasn’t. She told people they could get it wet. They couldn’t. What happened to that selling website that just a copy of the family I won’t name? “Jaclyn” literally used almost the same font. It was on purpose IMO. I don’t understand how she is still selling stuff. She is the worst “CEO”. She knows nothing about the products that are sent out. It’s every one else’s fault. People are mean and bullies because they want to hold her accountable.
The thing is that yes, ethically it’s not okay, it just isn’t. But legally speaking, since it wasn’t trademarked she is able to do that, regardless of whether its okay or not.
Not defending but, legally, Jaclyn and her team didn’t do anything wrong. Morally, she did. Even if a name is trademarked in one country, it doesn’t have legality in another country. To prevent anyone from using it, you have to trademark the brand everywhere or else someone from another country can legally trademark it (to which you can dispute it in court).
makes me sad for kalyn i didnt even know about this but ive been a long time subscriber of her and koze has been her brand for sooooo long unfortunate that she had to throw in the towel and give up her baby bc another influencer got lazy and greedy
As a brand owner I would not have responded either. It’s not smart business move to respond to this KOZE owner. Point blank. Get over it. Whoever trademarks first, gets the trademark…P E R I O D
You're right- and she has. She's realized that she's a talentless tw°° and everything she touches turns to sh°°. So she's learned that to maintain relevancy, which fills her pocketbook, she needs to make sure her actions continue to be at least somewhat controversial. 🤡
Take responsibility? Just because it’s legal doesn’t make it moral. Faceless corporations get away with intellectual theft all the time, but it’s still wrong. Not to mention copy right and trade mark violations need to be litigated and oftentimes small companies can’t protect themselves against Intellectual theft even with trademarked material because they don’t have surplus $100,000s to spend on expensive legal fees.
But didn’t spilly just say that JH still hasn’t trade marked it either? But I guess she knows that she doesn’t have to & can get away with it because of her large following.
She did. She admitted she was naive and time passed and she didn’t trademark it. But that doesn’t change that a quick search would have told Jacklyn all she needed. But she either didn’t do it or didn’t care. Not even after the direct comment from the ‘first’ koze owner. And fighting for the name would have been not only incredibly expensive and difficult when up against someone with loads of money and wealthy friends, it would also take a very long time. And by then it would have been even harder to separate the two companies with the same name. So she gave up. Very unfortunate, but it makes sense.
At the end of the video when Jacqueline is talking, she physically said we’ve tried to find so many names that were trademarked. She saw that the cozy brand was a thing, but it wasn’t trademarked so she didn’t give two craps so since it wasn’t trademarked, she stole. It basically said it right out of her mouth.
Girl bye! If you valued your brand, you should've trademarked the name. You dont handle business by sending a message asking someone to change the name of their business bc, as a business woman, you failed to protect yourself. Business is business. The audacity that she really thought writing a message on social media was suppose to solve the issue. If you want change you handle business legally. No one cares about your emotions when money is on the table.
Jaclyn is horrible person. I wish that the original Koze brand had fought her instead of just giving up, especially when she realized that Koze was actually trademarked. Getting an LLC is a 15 min process that costs $100; trademarking your brand is even more accessible and less expensive than the LLC. She could then even sue Jaclyn for infringing on her trademark! My question why kind of advice was she getting from the lawyers!
I regret buying all the koze products from Jaclyn hill. Had I’d known about JH literally stealing the name I would’ve never bought from her! Huge waste of money! What happened to women empowering other women! JH saw the other business and flat out didn’t care! That’s beyond messed up!!! I refuse to wear any of JH loungewear!
I have to say I'm sick of this topic. The reality is that the lady did not have the purchased rights to this name, so she is simply unlucky. That's the reality, I'm not sticking up for Jaclyn, but she has the right to use that name. There is a website for company names, etc. and when she saw that no one owns this name, why should she look back to see if by chance someone is not using this name? Be realistic people. I don't know what world you live in, but open your eyes. I'm sorry of Kaly , but it's really stupid of her.
I noticed that Jaclyn kept emphasizing that she was looking for names but they were trademarked. Essentially telling the other person that since you never trademarked it, it’s up for grabs. Morally it was a trashy thing to do on Jaclyn’s part, but on the business side, technically she’s not wrong. Let it be a lesson, if you’re starting a business, get a trademark. If you’re not sure if that’s needed, consult a lawyer.
Jacklyn would earn so much respect from her followers and possible buyers if she reached out and ACTUALLY DONE SOMETHING CREATIVE to change the name of her new brand and products. Image a large creator reaching out and showing her creativity and support for a smaller creator - she would almost be a saint in today's atmosphere. But no, it is easier to be greedy, show your monetary power, and be called a copycat. Disgusting and expected.
Haven’t finished the video, but the Canadian influencer was kind of shady to go straight to Jaclyn because of Jaclyn’s followers would’ve not known better. She should have gone legally to trademark it so Jaclyn, a bigger creator, couldn’t use it. It was a dumb mistake and I feel bad but with multiple businesses under one brand name, should’ve trademarked it the moment it was created. Way before Jaclyn even had the idea. Should have never left that comment.
I’m not a Jaclyn fan but I really doubt she reads every single comment she gets. Like REALLY what are the odds she read this girls post. And she’s claiming that because Jaclyn posted something about her brand she’s launching that it’s her “response” to the comment. Give me a break
LMFAOOOO NOT HER SAYING HER NAME TAKES A BRAND FURTHER.... 💀✋️✋️✋️✋️ Honey, your name at this point is associated with tacky, lowkey unsanitary makeup products and cheap quality.
Sorry bestie, you didn’t trademark so that’s just bad business especially to the degree she was operating. Also it’s completely different pronunciation of the brand names and I’m not even a fan of Jaclyn.
I thought I missed the part of the video where it said the smaller influencer trademarked. It’s usually one of the first steps in a company! Just how the law works 🤷🏻♀️
Technically, legally, someone can use the name. That doesn't make it any less shitty to do it. The fact that it's legal doesn't mean it's a good and right thing to do.
Jaclyn should pick up another name but I am still here asking myself why the first blogger / creator didn't trademarked her works as everyone else. I am not defending Jaclyn but... technically speaking if you don't trademark or protect your rights in some other ways you are putting your onw work at risk
Jaclyn... had to bandwagon on Morphe.. and now KOZE. almost as if she doesnt ever have a single unique thought ever .....so she relies on others to do the work
I really don’t understand how she can claim copywrite, there’s hundreds of brands with names like “kose, cozy, kozy, cove.” It’s the most not unique name you could think of, reminds me of this minimalist pooch brands the Kardashians have. Names and themes like that are so easy to think of and quite literally the most un original content you can create?
Their both spelled K•O•Z•E with a similar fong and logo and sell identical products like cozy slippers and robes and theyre both intluencers.... Its intentional.
This sucks but idk why she thought leaving an Instagram comment would do anything…I’m sure lawyers cost a lot but this doesn’t seem like a quick fix, especially with the trademark
I don’t have any sympathy for the person who got their business name taken. I’m glad she admitted to being naïve about getting koze trademarked, but as a business owner that is not something you wait around to do or just put it on your to do list and then forget to do…you missed your opportunity and now have to deal with the consequences. Also, you think that commenting to a brand is gonna make them turn around and change their name, branding and marketing strategies, etc. all because you asked? IMO Jaclyn doesn’t owe her anything, not even an apology, because this girl just isn’t aware of how business works and unfortunately is the cause of her own demise.
Jaclyn makes me so angry!! I try to give her the benefit of the doubt & every single time I’m left feeling betrayed lol. All she is now is a fake greedy liar. I’m completely done 😤
I’ve supported Jaclyn through every scandal, but I just can’t anymore when I saw this woman’s video and how she stated she was a young mother who couldn’t afford to fight someone with the money resources of Jaclyn. For someone who claims to support women, this just seems the opposite. I’m a business owner and would be wrecked if someone with more resources stole everything I worked for and I had no chance in fighting back. It’s really troubling.
Not on JH side in this at all, but if Kaylynn had the brand for so long why didn’t she at least trademark the name? This is what happens when you don’t legally protect what’s rightfully yours, and now the brand name belongs to someone who doesn’t deserve it in the slightest and there’s really nothing anyone can do about it. Doesn’t make what JH did moral or the right thing, but sadly, it isn’t illegal 🤷🏻♀️
I was willing to give Jaclyn a little leniency before but then she started marketing her business as a family business which it’s not and now stealing from small creators :/ Made me lose all respect.
These shady influencers that steal from smaller creators or even fans sometimes is DISGUSTING!! Grow a set, admit your mistakes and go on from there! No, you'll just wait and put out a "crocodile tear" apology they DO NOT even mean and even and all will be forgotten and forgiven! NOT! Fans and "whistle blowers" are holding influencers to a higher standard imo! Just putting a BS apology video up isn't enuf anymore!! She'll feel the blow back from this!
The only thing Jaclyn could do to shock me is hold herself accountable
Now that would be shocking!
Lmao yess😭😭
litterally😭
I feel like she lives in her own head...I don't know what it takes to be so ignorant tbh it's almost a talent ! XD
Anyone else have a couple of exes you feel this way about cuz 😅

And fighting for the name would have been not only incredibly expensive and difficult when up against someone with loads of money and wealthy friends, it would also take a very long time. And by then it would have been even harder to separate the two companies with the same name. So she gave up. Very unfortunate, but it makes sense.
All I am saying is that it all comes down to this. If she had trademarked her brand, JH would not have been able to use it.
I'm not a fan of hill, BUT if it's not trademarked 🤷🏽♀️ c'mon... If you don't know to do that, youre not business ready
Girl should have trademarked her business. She should hold nobody accountable except herself. I do feel for her….but come on.
Has she ever told the truth ?
At the end of the video when Jacqueline is talking, she physically said we’ve tried to find so many names that were trademarked. She saw that the cozy brand was a thing, but it wasn’t trademarked so she didn’t give two craps so since it wasn’t trademarked, she stole. It basically said it right out of her mouth.
But she didn't trademark it.
Girl bye! If you valued your brand, you should've trademarked the name. You dont handle business by sending a message asking someone to change the name of their business bc, as a business woman, you failed to protect yourself. Business is business. The audacity that she really thought writing a message on social media was suppose to solve the issue. If you want change you handle business legally. No one cares about your emotions when money is on the table.
“When I use my name the brand is going to go further” 🤣 yea okay definitely not anymore
When Jaclyn talks she seems so sweet and friendly.....but then we hear about how she handles her controversies and it's just disgusting.
This is why Jeffree tm'd every possible option when he started the Starr Yak Ranch
Jaclyn is horrible person. I wish that the original Koze brand had fought her instead of just giving up, especially when she realized that Koze was actually trademarked. Getting an LLC is a 15 min process that costs $100; trademarking your brand is even more accessible and less expensive than the LLC. She could then even sue Jaclyn for infringing on her trademark! My question why kind of advice was she getting from the lawyers!
Two basic women with a brand name koze, cozy, kozy, come etc seems really lazy
I regret buying all the koze products from Jaclyn hill. Had I’d known about JH literally stealing the name I would’ve never bought from her! Huge waste of money! What happened to women empowering other women! JH saw the other business and flat out didn’t care! That’s beyond messed up!!! I refuse to wear any of JH loungewear!
I have to say I'm sick of this topic. The reality is that the lady did not have the purchased rights to this name, so she is simply unlucky. That's the reality, I'm not sticking up for Jaclyn, but she has the right to use that name. There is a website for company names, etc. and when she saw that no one owns this name, why should she look back to see if by chance someone is not using this name? Be realistic people. I don't know what world you live in, but open your eyes. I'm sorry of Kaly , but it's really stupid of her.
I’m confused? Is no one else in the world supposed to use the word with that spelling? They’re not even selling the same stuff???
I noticed that Jaclyn kept emphasizing that she was looking for names but they were trademarked. Essentially telling the other person that since you never trademarked it, it’s up for grabs. Morally it was a trashy thing to do on Jaclyn’s part, but on the business side, technically she’s not wrong. Let it be a lesson, if you’re starting a business, get a trademark. If you’re not sure if that’s needed, consult a lawyer.
Jacklyn would earn so much respect from her followers and possible buyers if she reached out and ACTUALLY DONE SOMETHING CREATIVE to change the name of her new brand and products. Image a large creator reaching out and showing her creativity and support for a smaller creator - she would almost be a saint in today's atmosphere. But no, it is easier to be greedy, show your monetary power, and be called a copycat. Disgusting and expected.
this happens in the real world all the time. The original owner shouldve trademarked it.
Its Koze hers or its someone like forma brands behind it too?
I wouldn’t be surprised
Most likely
She literally thought that waiting it out would make the public forget
For the law stand point it doesn't matter who made the name. It's about who trade marks the name first.
It majorly sucks that the name was taken but she didn't do her due diligence by copywriting her company.
And they aren’t even pronounced the same. I’m so confused how everyone is so upset
do people actually buy matching pajama sets like for almost 100$ like what are y’all thinking
Lmao at this point she just settled on the first one she found not trademarked 🙄🤨
Jaclyn couldn't fart an original thought much less be honest about anything.
Haven’t finished the video, but the Canadian influencer was kind of shady to go straight to Jaclyn because of Jaclyn’s followers would’ve not known better. She should have gone legally to trademark it so Jaclyn, a bigger creator, couldn’t use it. It was a dumb mistake and I feel bad but with multiple businesses under one brand name, should’ve trademarked it the moment it was created. Way before Jaclyn even had the idea. Should have never left that comment.
Even if Jaclyn stole everything conceptually, it’s her brand name and aesthetic now. Always ask a lawyer first yall
I’m not a Jaclyn fan but I really doubt she reads every single comment she gets. Like REALLY what are the odds she read this girls post. And she’s claiming that because Jaclyn posted something about her brand she’s launching that it’s her “response” to the comment. Give me a break
When was Jaclyn and incredible luxury product even a thing? Is hairy contaminated lipsticks considered luxury now?
“IvE bEeN wOrKiNg oN tHiS fOr So LoNg” “I pUt My EnTiRe SoUl InTo ThIs” I’m so sick of her
who’s gonna tell miss girl that nobody knows her or her brand… you’re not losing any sales bc you weren’t getting any to begin with
LMFAOOOO NOT HER SAYING HER NAME TAKES A BRAND FURTHER.... 💀✋️✋️✋️✋️ Honey, your name at this point is associated with tacky, lowkey unsanitary makeup products and cheap quality.
Sorry bestie, you didn’t trademark so that’s just bad business especially to the degree she was operating. Also it’s completely different pronunciation of the brand names and I’m not even a fan of Jaclyn.
If you don’t trade mark a name anyone could use it and trademark as their own
I thought I missed the part of the video where it said the smaller influencer trademarked. It’s usually one of the first steps in a company! Just how the law works 🤷🏻♀️
Technically, legally, someone can use the name. That doesn't make it any less shitty to do it. The fact that it's legal doesn't mean it's a good and right thing to do.
jacklyns brand looks so cheap
so when she looked up Koze no search results came up??
She needs a new drama to make people forget she doesnt own Jaclyn Cosmetics which she claims to be her family business.
How long has JH been in love with herself???
She probably felt that her saying she looked for a name would immediately make us believe it. Ok miss "Family owned business" 👀
Jaclyn should pick up another name but I am still here asking myself why the first blogger / creator didn't trademarked her works as everyone else. I am not defending Jaclyn but... technically speaking if you don't trademark or protect your rights in some other ways you are putting your onw work at risk
Jacqueline seems like the person to write their name on a group project and not contribute anything.
Jaclyn... had to bandwagon on Morphe.. and now KOZE. almost as if she doesnt ever have a single unique thought ever .....so she relies on others to do the work
I really don’t understand how she can claim copywrite, there’s hundreds of brands with names like “kose, cozy, kozy, cove.” It’s the most not unique name you could think of, reminds me of this minimalist pooch brands the Kardashians have. Names and themes like that are so easy to think of and quite literally the most un original content you can create?
Their both spelled K•O•Z•E with a similar fong and logo and sell identical products like cozy slippers and robes and theyre both intluencers.... Its intentional.
“Everything was taken” = “everything was taken by people I consider as important as me”
omg so hard like owning her own make up brand
Did she ever tell the story of her "kidnapping" 🤣🤣
Hate how she stole this
let’s get one thing out of this…when u start a brand, ur first order of business is to trademark it.
Jaclyn is such a selfish person. Who does this?? I would never spend a cent at this company. I hope Kalyn rebrands so we can buy all of her stuff! ❤️
This sucks but idk why she thought leaving an Instagram comment would do anything…I’m sure lawyers cost a lot but this doesn’t seem like a quick fix, especially with the trademark
I don’t have any sympathy for the person who got their business name taken. I’m glad she admitted to being naïve about getting koze trademarked, but as a business owner that is not something you wait around to do or just put it on your to do list and then forget to do…you missed your opportunity and now have to deal with the consequences.
Also, you think that commenting to a brand is gonna make them turn around and change their name, branding and marketing strategies, etc. all because you asked? IMO Jaclyn doesn’t owe her anything, not even an apology, because this girl just isn’t aware of how business works and unfortunately is the cause of her own demise.
WHO is still giving this woman money? Yikes. Some people just like being fleeced I guess.
Jaclyn makes me so angry!! I try to give her the benefit of the doubt & every single time I’m left feeling betrayed lol. All she is now is a fake greedy liar. I’m completely done 😤
she made another person close their business. Jacqueline is a phony
No she didn’t, that person decided to change her name rather than trademark it.
I wonder if this is even her brand or just another company she’s “collaborating” with 😂
I’ve supported Jaclyn through every scandal, but I just can’t anymore when I saw this woman’s video and how she stated she was a young mother who couldn’t afford to fight someone with the money resources of Jaclyn. For someone who claims to support women, this just seems the opposite. I’m a business owner and would be wrecked if someone with more resources stole everything I worked for and I had no chance in fighting back. It’s really troubling.
Not on JH side in this at all, but if Kaylynn had the brand for so long why didn’t she at least trademark the name? This is what happens when you don’t legally protect what’s rightfully yours, and now the brand name belongs to someone who doesn’t deserve it in the slightest and there’s really nothing anyone can do about it. Doesn’t make what JH did moral or the right thing, but sadly, it isn’t illegal 🤷🏻♀️
i'm so proud of myself for never supporting or watching this lady's videos lmfaooo
I was willing to give Jaclyn a little leniency before but then she started marketing her business as a family business which it’s not and now stealing from small creators :/ Made me lose all respect.
the mere fact something NEW comes out yet AGAIN about her... mind. blown.
I have ZERO respect for Jaclyn! None
If it still isn’t TM why doesn’t the initial creator do it ?
She needs to just stop and go away!
These shady influencers that steal from smaller creators or even fans sometimes is DISGUSTING!! Grow a set, admit your mistakes and go on from there! No, you'll just wait and put out a "crocodile tear" apology they DO NOT even mean and even and all will be forgotten and forgiven! NOT! Fans and "whistle blowers" are holding influencers to a higher standard imo! Just putting a BS apology video up isn't enuf anymore!! She'll feel the blow back from this!
You have no idea how hard it was to steal this brand 😂😂😂 I’m exhausted of all the hard work I put into taking somebody else’s hard work
