Today we're talking about Colleen Ballinger sing-song in our way through allegations and backlash.

0:05.0

The Supreme Court just gutted affirmative action. Previously unshared horror stories are being shared for men who got implants that went very wrong.

0:11.4

In nursing homes that stole tens of millions of dollars of being exposed. We're going to talk about all that and so much more on today's brand new extra large Philip DeFranco show your daily dive into the news.

0:20.4

So buckle up, hit that

0:21.8

like button and let's just jump into it. Starting with Colleen Ballinger has now officially responded

0:26.5

to the allegations and the controversy around her, but she did it in a way I did not have on my

0:30.9

bingo card. I thought since they haven't responded to media requests, oh, she's going to continue

0:34.7

1:04.5

with many saying they felt used and exploited by her. So she starts off this now viral apology by saying, No, my team has strongly advised me to not say what I want to say.

1:13.6

I recently realized that they never said that I couldn't sing what I want to say.

1:18.6

And in the hook of this song, which, you know, I'll link to this down below. You can watch it and consume it all.

1:22.6

But I'll save you time here. She essentially equated all the allegations to a toxic gossip train of misinformation and manipulation.

1:28.3

Claiming some of the things said about her were not true, though not really diving into any specifics on what was false.

1:33.3

So she did address the relationships that she nurtured with young fans.

1:36.3

Many years ago, I used to message my fans, but not in a creepy way, like a lot of you are trying to suggest.
