‘I’m Not Going To Out A Victim Of James Charles’ Jeffree Star Is Talking About *That* Feud With James Charles Again
Yep, he's still talking about the whole James Charles and Tati Westbrook drama.
It seems like a lifetime ago when we were all inundated with stories, posts, and articles about that massive drama between YouTubers and beauty gurus James Charles and Tati Westbrook. We’re sure you remember the details, but if you need a reminder, check it out here. Of course, as he does, Jeffree Star inserted himself right in the middle of all the drama. And now? Well, now he’s talking about the whole thing yet again.
During an episode of the podcast, Mom’s Basement, the hosts asked Jeffree, “Is James Charles a danger to society? Is he a predator?” This was of course in reference to a since-deleted tweet where Jeffree called James a “danger to society”, a “predator,” adding that “everything Tati said is 100% true.”
“Listen…,” Jeffree began, “there is a long pause because it’s a very complicated situation…it’s a very complicated question. I’m 100% comfortable [with you asking], it’s going to upset a lot of people but the truth is that someone… and right now… I legally can’t say who, but someone told us a few things and we trusted that person’s opinion and then another person said some things that was friends with that man and it really convinced us that he was a predator,” Jeffree explained. “At the end of the day, I’m not going to out a victim of James Charles. If it’s real because I don’t know if it’s real.”

He went on to say that it’s “f**ked” how people made him out to be a villain after fans of James accused Jeffree of trying to ruin his career. “No, Tati did and uploaded a 40-minute video about him and she should have never uploaded that but she did,” he went on. “And for some reason, James thinks that me and Shane tried to ruin his life and orchestrated the whole thing like we f**king care. You think we care to drag or ruin someone… for what? We’re our own superstars, we’re our own lane, we’re doing our own thing together and we’ve made so much magic, why would we ever want to bring someone down? We don’t give a f**k.”
He then went on to talk about his current relationship with Tati, “We (in relation to himself and friend Shane Dawson) are currently not friends with Tati,” he said. “Are we enemies? No. But we are not friends.” “I just think that Tati… she took a really big hit,” he went on. “I don’t know if she’s in the red but it’s a different vibe.”
He then went on to say that, in his opinion, he thinks people wanted to create a feud between himself and James Charles. “There’s no feud. There’s no competition. I’ve been doing this for a very long time.”
Trust Jeffree Star to add some drama into our daily online lives, eh?
