Today, more details have come to light, and the situation appears even shadier than we thought.
This was a major departure for the three supposed BFFs, whose friendship has always been an extremely visible and important part of their respective brands. Fans were quick to notice the omission, and speculate about the deceased relationship. A close look back seems to reveal that Jeffree hasn’t spoken publicly to Manny or Laura since Halloween.
You can read all about it, and see the receipts I pulled, right here.
Please note that Jeffree wasn’t tagged in this tweet, btw — just named.
Star further replied to a friend “It’s SCARY how evil people are… we need a vent session ASAP.”
This tweet was deleted in a matter of seconds, and no longer exists on Star’s account. But I have seen various versions of this screencap with identical text and syntax, suggesting that the image was saved from multiple phones and desktops. Here For The Tea also stands by its authenticity, so.
To be very clear — per the mentions I can see, a handful of people have asked Laura if her cryptic tweets recently are referencing the Zoella advent calendar disaster. The MAJORITY of people are asking her about Jeffree. Like Manny, she also doesn’t mention former friend Star by name… there’s just an oblique reference to “another YouTuber.”
If everything was fine, wouldn’t she just say so? This is either a masterful PR move, or some medium-skillful deflection on her part.
This particular Twitter fan (his feed is very NSFW, please be aware) publicly said things like “they were always snakes, no matter how much [love] you showed them. manny is particularily disgusting for doing this to you especially after everything you did for him.”
Jeffree didn’t favorite or retweet any of this, but applauding “the honesty” of statements like that definitely seems like an endorsement.
A disruption to that friendship, and therefore to each of their brands, wouldn’t just fuck up their personal lives — it has the potential to fuck up their money, too.
But odds are that we won’t have to wait long to learn more. “If I had to bet who would have verbal diarrhea first, it would be Jeffree,” as Here For The Tea so eloquently put it. “And it seems like he’s starting to crack.”
I’ll keep you posted, as always, on everything and anything that goes down. You know you love me, xoxo.
