      What is also intentional is that she uploaded this at a time when Adam who is overseas wouldn’t be able to responds until it was out for several hours. Also it’s during the holidays season where influencers make more money. Then on top of that she is uploading not because it’s been too long, but because she needs to or CZcams will automatically demonetize her channel because of lack of uploads.

    Adam said during his reaction that she's using a Rubric to apologize, the same one that she's always used when she gets called out. Colleen isn't sorry at all and it's no accident that she's back just in time for Vlogmas. The only people that missed her are naive children/teens and unhinged adults that will eat this right up. Any critical or negative comments are being deleted and she's doing everything she can to make herself seem harmless when she's anything but. She's disgusting and needs to be permanently demonetized. She won't be deplatformed. If Onision, James Charles, SSSniperwolf, Jeffree Star, and Shane Dawson still have their channels, then Colleen Ballinger will still be here, too. It sucks. CZcams is USELESS when it matters most so I'm not expecting anything from them.

I understand how EDs are serious and she may not be doing well mentally right now, and I also saw how she seems to be flaunting it like how she post a photo of herself purposefully on her instagram story between the first two vlogs back almost to say “look at how unwell I am because of all of this”…

    She has still NOT actually apologized. She can not even follow the basic’s on apologizing for Kindergartener’s!
    1. You need to apologize directly to the persons you’ve harmed.
    2. You need to state specifically what you did wrong.
    3. You need to actually mean it.
    4. You must show real change and continue to demonstrate that.

    It's a red flag (and surprising) that it took her this long to apologize and finally understand that she was wrong. She's a grown woman and her behavior was clearly egregious. She shows a lack of self-awareness. It was just a few months ago that she was "immature and inappropriate" and singing on her ukulele about how she did nothing wrong. She doesn't get a pat on the back for this. Nice try.

      She isn't sorry though. She gave a half apology without really taking any blame ot even personally apologizing to the ones who are named like Adam, Becky elle and Oliver as well as her ex Josh. If she was truly sorry she could have said their names one by one and apologized to each personally. Yet she didn't. She made it like she's sorry but turns it back to herself. Its gross. Plus now that she's back she will again be exploiting her own kids like every other family vlogger.

She’s still making the entire situation about her and her feelings alone, and not owning up to anything she’s done. She’s generalizing by saying she’s done “bad things” she regrets instead of actually outlining what those things are, just to gain sympathy for her audience who isn’t in the know so they at least side with her when no one else will.

    Thanks for the video Logan. I think a lot of the 'ums' were planned, you can see her glancing up at the camera, I think to see the time stamp to make sure her video will be over 10 minutes. I don't believe a word she says-- and her 'I'm trying to create a safe environment in my work,' well the behaviour at work was only part of it-- most of it was after she got off the camera. Adam said she was still in group chats when all this broke in the spring/summer. I don't believe for a moment that she's been 'getting the help she needs.' She's sitting like a child who has to apologise so she gets her toys back. She didn't even directly apologise or address anyone that she hurt, and used a lot of distancing language 'people got hurt' and not 'I hurt people.' Don't believe a word of it.

    It felt like she mostly apologized for "poorly handling" the situation, and she seemed remorseful over that. I think that's a shift of focus. We are looking for an honest apology, and she gave us one. But we - I - want her to apologize for exploiting Adam for free labor and mobbing him, to apologize to Becky for sexualizing and traumatizing her when she was 16, to apologize to Joshua for lying about him on the honeymoon and smearing him after the divorce. I will think she began to remedy the situation after she names these - and perhaps more - and shows genuine remorse over them.

      I personally don’t think her apologize of how she handled things was very sincere, especially when she ties into a lot of her immature behavior, attempting to manipulate us to think that she can’t be fully responsible for her actions because she appears immature. I think that is just another manipulation tactic that she uses. I do not think she’s sincere at all and anything that she comes across as. The one thing that she does demonstrate sincerely is that she is uncomfortable with the entire situation, how she is viewed, how people look at her, rather than being uncomfortable, that she caused great pain and suffering to others.

Her ukulele video was so embarrassing that she left it up. She's so sorry that she hasn't privately apologized to the people that she's hurt. She cares so much that she made this into a weird vlog instead of it's own video.

    Thank you so much for doing this video! As soon as I saw she had uploaded for the first time since having a break, I was flabbergasted and was waiting for your video to break down her nonverbals.
    I had been a fan of hers and even had gone to a live show last year after having no idea of the controversial behaviors she had done, and after things came to light publicly and I watched your previous videos along with other channels breaking down the situation (i.e., Swoop) I couldn’t bring myself to continue following her. I was shocked at how soon she got back into posting and I had found out from Adam McIntyre that Colleen had post the video strategically the day she had for a multitude of reasons, one being it was on her ex’s new wives birthday, and during a time when Adam, one of her victims wouldn’t have been able to respond right away due to the time difference.
    Taken all together, her video has been a super disappointing apology and she didn’t seem to own up to any of her past failings, which kinda further indicates she doesn’t seem to care about how she hurt people.

    She’s a manipulative narcissist. Frankly some of things she did to minors are so egregious she shouldn’t be allowed to have a channel on this platform. She also hadn’t truly apologized…to the people she actually hurt. I believe anyone can learn and change but the very first step is acknowledging and apologizing to the people she directly hurt…not some kind of manipulative “apology” to her “fans” for not being online. She hasn’t ;earned a damn thing. Classic narcissist.

    But nooooo, it was coming up for the "hey, if you don't post anything soon we'll demonetise your channel" and Christmassy AdSense.
    She's so calculated, and there isn't a shred of embarrassment given the ukulele non-apology is still up and monetised, as well as her most viewed video ever.

    She changed but couldn't actually address the victims by name? She is acting like a victim. It is also very cowardly of her to be removing comments on that video. Her apology was just her addressing her first apology, BARELY explaining what she did that was wrong(she committed a crime....more than once) and she lied about when she committed the actions. You make a half a#$ apology, you should be ready to receive criticism for it. Its part of being on the internet. She is a coward. She hurt minors. They will have to deal with the mental damage for YEARS. It doesnt matter that she didnt mean to. She still needs to acknowledge the actual damage caused...I think the victims should press charges. CZcams needs to demonize her permanently. This is unacceptable behavior. My opinion🤷🏾‍♀️

However we have heard, this fluffy I’m sorry bs over and over an still not many including my self believe this verbal diarrhea. Sure I believe anyone, including her can change and grow stronger then the f-ed up person they were. I’m not sweet and innocent in my own past. But this is going to take ALOT of time. But she needs to drop the BS, get real and raw, say their names, and mean it. Then in time depending on her actions, it depends on if I support this come back. As of right now it’s the same bs, coming from a shit person.

So instead, I'll take a few mins at the beginning to say sorry and then continue the same vlog with how normal and wholesome my life is - I'm a mom and chickens, so I obviously couldn't have done anything wrong."
    Disclaimer: I didn't watch the whole vlog, I've never followed her or been a fan, so I'm not familiar with how she vlogs, so it might be authentic to her, it just seemed like a strange route to go, when making an apology about such serious accusations.

    I had wondered when she is expressing those negative emotions without words into her facial expressions. You don’t say it because you don’t pretend to know what’s going on in her mind. Is she feeling content because she hast to do this? Is she feeling contemptuous because she feels uncomfortable, putting her self on the line like this? These are good things to ponder.
