![]() She put the video out there, didn’t she?)īut why perpetuate the “Skinny, Beautiful People Are All Heartless, Superficial Snobs” stereotype? Why not stand out by sending a positive message instead of a negative one? Publicity? (Well, she got that, didn’t she? This has got to be one of her most widely viewed videos now.)īut is that really the kind of attention she wants? (Well, clearly. Why would this very pretty (on the outside at least her fat shaming video reveals a very ugly inside indeed) care about belittling fat people? Why rain on our parade/blow out our candles to try and make herself shine brighter? I decided to also stop watching because before I let my temper run away with my anger and get the best of me, I remembered the sage words a former neighbor once imparted to me: Hurt people, hurt people. Hurt People, Hurt People.Even Pretty Ones Which is about how she comes off in the video. She looked like a snarling, snarky, Medusa in that. ![]() In the little bit I saw, she looked better than the unfortunate clip Xfinity included with the story about her video. (Yes, Nicole, you did come off as an a-hole, even though you tried to pass it off like you didn’t really mean to.)Īnyway, I watched as much of her video as I could stomach before I deemed it not worth my time and switched it off. She’s desperate to be in the public eye/center of attention in any way, shape, or form she can. Meaning, she’s a comedienne, actor, writer, recording artist, etc., etc., etc. She clearly wants to be Somebody and doesn’t discriminate on how she goes about trying to get famous. This video of hers certainly doesn’t give me a good first impression of her “talents.”) ![]() Why else would such a pretty girl worry about fat people?Īpparently she’s an “entertainer.” (I’m using that term loosely. She might be popular on YouTube, but she’s certainly not cross-media famous.) (Which is why I put STAR in quotes above. Although, it also wasn’t the best picture of whoever it was.Īlthough, how would I know if that was a good picture of her? When I clicked through to the story I discovered her name was Nicole Arbour. Part of why the title caught my attention was because it was not a star I recognized. The “star’s” picture was among the other pictures included with all the video titles. Her responses on Twitter varied between claiming that Santoro made up lies for attention and providing information for victims of domestic abuse.Today on ’s Homepage a couple of “Today in Video” video titles caught my eye: “Big Underground Discovery Near Stonehenge” (which I’ll be writing about on Haunt Jaunts), and “Star’s ‘Dear Fat People’ Video Sparks Anger.” Prior to the release of Santoro’s video, his friend Rob Dyke discussed Santoro and Arbour’s relationship, with some of his details matching Santoro’s side of the story.Īrbour began to respond to Santoro’s video in the comments section of one of her own videos, calling Santoro “that little bitch I dumped months ago” and accusing him of using her to get attention on his channel. He observed that men often feel discouraged from talking about abuse they endure, and he recalled thinking that nobody would believe him.Īccording to the National Coalition Against Domestic Violence, one in four men are victims of a form of physical violence from an intimate partner.Īlthough Santoro never named the ex he referenced in the video, viewers quickly figured out that Santoro was talking about Arbour (their relationship was common knowledge online). In the video, he discussed the relationship and the fact that his ex, who he described as “extremely jealous,” isolated him from family and friends, manipulated him, and eventually escalated to physical attacks.
