- In the shocking second
part of the latest series from YouTube's, Crown Prince
of Cringe, Shane Dawson, is called The New World of Jeffree Star in which Shane gives his pale,
slender friend a platform to explain how, yes, things
might look a little different from a year ago when he sold
his $20 million mansion in LA to move into a relatively
humble-looking home and open a yak ranch in Wyoming. But that doesn't mean he isn't thriving. See, he allowed his
popularity on YouTube to die as part of a great plan. His makeup brand has become
significantly less relevant by choice, and multiple
members of his staff have quit because he's the world's greatest boss. I sound like I'm reporting for a Fox News affiliate in North Korea. Meanwhile, Shane listens
tearfully, presumably while going, "Propaganda, I hardly know her." Actually, no, that's
probably too basic for Shane. He would spice it up with a
racially insensitive accent. So anyway, what a fun
group of people to watch for 52 minutes. But actually, it's unfair of me to hold these two adults
accountable for their past behavior because they moved away from Los Angeles and that makes them better people. Look at everyone. Shane's fiance, Ryland, is
finally sticking up for himself. Shane himself is once again
flirting with the idea of doing the bare minimum
to look presentable. And Jeffree has that yak farm where he has created
a disturbing hierarchy to determine which animals
live and which die. Are we in North Korea? There's also like some sort of eyeshadow they want to show us, but that's the least clear
part of the whole story. So grab your open carry firearm license and let's hop on a jet to Wyoming and visit the Star Yak ranch, where the people are
real, the tears are fake, and the yaks live in fear
until they are steak. Get ready to dream up the names for some unreleased eyeshadow shades in another Shane Dawson goes
down on the range installment of Clip Breakdown. ♪ Oh oh ♪ ♪ Oh ♪ - Hello, television viewers. My name is Nick. Thank you so much for joining
me once again on my channel for another installment of Clip Breakdown. This is the playlist where we
dive into our favorite movies, TV movies, and other such
content here on the web and we grind it up, bone,
cartilage, gristle and all, to sell it as frozen meat online. That way, we can look
at each pound and say, "Shane did that, or he
really thought he did that." So far in breaking down this series, I've contracted a virus,
and it's called anger. Before we get into it, make sure you click that subscribe button if you're not already part
of the Nick D community. Also, I've got merch and a Patreon. Enamel pins are still available,
and shipping is super fast. Shane is still at it, you
know, serving Wyoming farmer. You can tell on this ad read for Buffy, which is a name I love to
say, he's trying to give like I was at a farm this week vibes which, whatever, you were at a farm. It sucked to watch. (chuckles) And as with the first installment, The New World of Jeffree
Star begins in the past with some archival footage from a vlog that you've already seen and weren't entertained by then. - I've been avoiding all the
spoiler videos, all the leaks. - I think I saw it from
the road, and it's crazy. - I'm really scared. I don't know what to expect. It's, from what I've heard, it's a castle. - That's Mario and Luigi Snapchatting their
journey to fight Bowser. Just kidding, 'cause Jeffree
Star is no Princess Peach, although I wouldn't be surprised if he had a (beep) tattoo of her. Do what you want with your body, but those forearms look like
poorly coded MySpace pages from like the cool emo kids in 2007. It feels like when you
wake up in a nightmare and then you're still having a nightmare. We're going back to
the house tour of 2019. Seriously? And like, if you're gonna
rely so much on file footage, let's call it, I really wish it would be
more visually distinct. Like, Lord knows Shane loves that scanning lines of
an old television filter that we saw all throughout
the Conspiracy campaign. Something like that would give us more like of an idea of whether
I'm watching present day or the past other than like
that stupid lower third text where he's like the dawn of day, and you're like, what does that even, shut up! I gotta say, I was just watching back the video for my first part and I was like yelling at these people. I have to limit my
telling people to shut up. They have the right to
say what they wanna say and I'm gonna say something back. Shane is laying it on thick immediately. It begins with Chris and him
talking about the FaceTime call Jeffree just clued Shane
in on, a very big deal. Like, Jeffree and Shane
are acting as though they found the Ark of the Covenant, and now, Jeffree has decided
he's going to reveal it to the world and prove
the existence of Jesus. That's literally how, like, why are they acting
like it's a bad thing that Jeffree wants to do a project? Oh, I just remembered what
it is they're referring to. Spoiler alert, not a big deal, but I won't really spoil it
because I want you to see how like existential crisis
mode this puts Shane in. - It went from like, "Oh,
let's go see the yaks," and like, "Look at the palette "that we were like not gonna sell," and now it's literally
like a very big deal. He's trusting me to be
a part of this moment. I was, am not ready for this. (Chris chuckles) I was just like trying
to make a stupid video. - And you did it! Congratulations. You could have stopped there. But now, somehow your stupid video is splitting into three stupid
videos like a cancer cell supposedly because you
just love editing so much. Well, if you love editing, you should treat her with respect. You can't just use her like a tool that helps control your image because that's supposed
to be Ryland's job. How many hostages do you need? Release one of them. It would be like if Bowser had two Princess Peaches
trapped in his castle. Sorry, I don't know why I
had to reuse that reference when I have a lot of other
Nintendo-based kidnap fantasies to pull from. I want that cartoon dog from Duck Hunt to grab me by the neck
and shake me, for example. That's just one example. So as I've complained about
on many other of these series, Shane spoils like the the
next episode with the B roll that he cannot help
himself from putting in. Like, we see these flashes
of Shane and Jeffree out on the ranch. Shane is wearing this costume,
and it's like, first of all, seeing Shane in an outfit
is so not providing the jazz and the visual
entertainment that he thinks it is. You'll see that Ryland does the same thing where they're like, "Let's
put on weird clothes," and somehow that's a personality. But it's always like you're
just making a series of teasers. Now you're teasing us with this
footage that we've already, it's not gonna be funny,
and we've already seen it. And you wouldn't need to tease
Jeffree Star's appearance if you just started this whole series 40 minutes later than it starts. Like, there's entire lifetimes
and eons of nonsense filler. Just start the thing at
the most interesting point. That's very important. Then he wouldn't have to act as though he's terrified of this phone call like the hot lady in a horror movie. And shame on you, Jeffree Star, for scaring Shane via FaceTime, turning on your camera,
wearing that Ghost Face mask. Oh, wait, that's your actual face with your hair pulled back. My bad. I just saw the slender
jaw with two soulless eyes and zero eyebrows and I
thought this has to be a prank. No, I'm just kidding. Jeffree Starr has a very unique look like many other queer icons in history, so can't fault him for that. Shane and Ryland are fighting. It goes to six hours earlier
and Shane's like (whines). That's basically it. And they have to get
ready to go to Wyoming. They are gonna leave the dogs. I don't know. Shane lets it slip that I guess Jeffree used to have
a full-time Pomeranian handler and he quit, as did his
former assistant, Maddie, but now, she's back hanging out with him. I don't think it's that
unusual for those employees who have left over the span of five years, but I don't think it's like good the way Shane makes it sound. I mean, like, she quit, and it's like, I can
imagine wanting to quit. Also, Shane seemed out of touch 'cause he has these like Gucci
shoes that Jeffree gave him during that becoming
him for a day episode. And he's like, "I love these. "I wear them at the gym." It's like, ugh, you're wearing very
expensive shoes to the gym. But don't worry because
he's a different person now. He wears fashion from Target. - I wanted to be bold 'cause
we're going to see Jeffree, but can I do this? It's a little gay, but I feel
like, what would Jeffree do? You look great. You do look great. I should change. - [Shane] No, I think you look great. Don't change. - No, yeah, it's a good outfit. You look great in your
little Muppet glasses, like if John Lennon had a baby with the guy who shot John Lennon. Chris is Giggle
McGigglegoobers on this one. He's like laughing from
behind the camera being like, "I don't know if you know this about me, "but I love traveling." Oh, really? Do you? (laughs) Oh, poor Chris, always
with a graphic t-shirt. Okay, so if you recall,
in the last episode, Shane Dawson's major crisis was that the inner part
of his pants wore off, which is something he chooses to be extra creepy about in part two. - Did you notice something
today about me that's different? - [Chris] The jacket? - No. - [Chris] What? - Keep going. - [Chris] No, I hate this game. I'm scared. - No, look at my crotch. - Ugh, so uncomfortable. He's like, "Didn't I promise you "I could get it semi
hard within seven days? "That's why I was
listening to Radio Disney "for the whole plane ride." Like, ew, don't do this. But he's just showing
that he bought new pants. We saw the vlog where
he got that MTV shirt, which they do actually sell at Target. And I'm starting to really stan Ryland now that he's finding his voice. - New year, new me. White jacket. Don't pan down. No, I'm kidding. I'm confident this year, guys. That's my thing! This is a new me, new
pants, new jacket, new life. - [Ryland] Same shirt. - Score. Shane says this in basically every video he's put out since his cancellation. Why? Why is his only personal narrative that he's some new and improved Shane and it's all based on minor
superficial changes he makes? Like, congratulations, you
turned over a new leaf, and all it's done is reveal a dirt floor. Like, at this point, you need to stop (beep) around with the leaves and just find a way to move
off the barnyard entirely. I'm not really sure that any
of Shane's claims of progress will ever feel sincere, unless
he does something actionable to help the communities that he's harmed. There's something all of
us can do to give back, and I don't believe I've ever heard him use
his platform like that. As we come up on the holidays, I wanna focus on getting people
gifts that also give back. And as someone who is often
a last-minute shopper, I'm so grateful for the
sponsor of today's video, Established Titles, which will be a great last-minute gift solution
for many people on my list because it's not only fun and cool, but it actually helps preserve the beautiful and natural
woodlands of Scotland and supporting global
reforestation efforts, which is a huge component
of battling climate change. Established Titles allows you
to participate in a project that's based on the historic custom where landowners in Scotland
were referred to as lairds, or in English, ladies and lords. With their title packs, you're given at least
one square foot of land. It's on a private estate
in Eddleston, Scotland, and it comes with its
own unique plot number and a certificate with a seal
that is perfect for gifting. I already made my mom a lady
to celebrate our Scottish roots and she was totally thrilled with it. It's really an unexpected
way to surprise someone. And then I loved being able to explain the meaning behind it, which is Established Titles
plants one tree for every order and work with global
charities One Tree Planted and Trees for the Future to help support reforestation
around the world. You or the recipient of this gift can use your official
lady or lordship title on things like your credit
cards or your plane tickets. I first heard of this when Scott Disick from
the Kardashians did it, but Established Titles adds this benefit by supporting the forests. I also have my own plot of
land from Established Titles, and around the first 200 people
to order using my link below will be within walking
distance of my plot. We'll be making our own
little neighborhood. Let's have a block party. I'll bring the haggis. Again, it makes an
amazing last-minute gift. Established Titles is actually running a massive Black Friday sale right now. Plus if you use the code LORDNICK, you get an additional 10% off. Go to establishedtitles.com/lordnick to get your gifts now
and support the channel. Again, I believe that Ry
is the real hero's journey that we're witnessing
throughout this saga. He used to just sit and take it while Shane made dig after dig. So it's satisfying,
morally, to see him be like, "Oh, yeah, you changed so much. "You look like an entirely
different lazy slob." And then he puts on his
little Fraggle Rock glasses and looks out the window like ♪ This is my fight song ♪ ♪ Take back my life song ♪ Their relationship is not an
example of romance or love that I want to emulate. Like, they always kind of just seem more like college roommates who
pretend they're best friends to avoid having to like make real friends. You know the ones. - [Shane] Creating this
with you felt so magical, it felt so right, and I think
the world deserves to see it. - Okay, I'm pretty sure this voiceover was completely scripted and staged. The audio just sounds so clean,
and the words so contrived. Like, what is the context? Was this a recording from
that mysterious phone call about the mysterious topic that caused Shane to soil himself? Like, was it a voicemail, or
simply his inner monologue as he's penning a letter to a beloved off fighting the great war? Then again, Jeffree always
was quite the gabber. Like, he can make himself
sound very serious and make things sound very important, just like I do and I over pronounce the Ts on the word important. Shane and all arrive in Denver. This is where they're transferring
out to Casper, Wyoming. I'm like, girl, these states are getting a little red for my taste. And we got Ryland out here
in the Gucci slippers. Let's protect him. - [Shane] Okay, I'll see
you soon, but just know that this feels so right
because it's with you. - Jeffree, please. All this sweet talk is making me feel like I'm back in high school being lured to a train station by an adult who introduced themselves in
an AOL chatroom made for teens. But don't worry, this situation
is obviously much different because Shane and Jeffree are
both inappropriate grownups. So as far as I'm
concerned, it's, choo-choo, all aboard the creepy adult express. You know what I mean? Choo-choo! Why the fist pump? Part of it, it's part of it. We go back to Shane
packing the concept palette that got canceled after the Conspiracy. It was going to be called
the something something. So he's bringing it with him. Shane is sweating through his jacket. Oh, you can tell they
had quite a long layover because Chris starts getting
fancy with the camera work. - [Shane] I know that you've
told me this a million times, that everything goes in cycles. And I don't know, I just feel like I wasn't sure. - Way to get creative with
those smooth moves, Chris. I don't think we've ever
had such a cinematic view of Shane Dawson's hunchback. ♪ My hunchback's turned up ♪ See, stuff like what you're about to see convinces me that there's
like story production going on behind the scenes, either I think it's probably just Shane himself self-producing,
which is not uncommon. Like, if there were a
fourth person on this trip who actually was the story producer, they might encourage Shane
to do things like this, knowing that they could edit and call back to that dumb other series. ♪ Oh ♪ ♪ Oh ♪ ♪ Oh ♪ ♪ Oh ♪ ♪ Oh ♪ ♪ Oh ♪ ♪ Oh ♪ ♪ Oh ♪ ♪ Oh ♪ - Now, that's great editing
'cause it perfectly illustrates how even after all of these years, Shane is still an energy vampire. (upbeat music)
There's that Epidemic Sound music again. I'm in dispute with
them over several clips from Shane Dawson videos 'cause they are constantly trying it. You can tell that this
was like Maroon 5-esque. And then they had, he had one earlier that was like Charlie Puth's cousin. It's all very, it has the mood, it has a vibe
of something more popular. Jeffree finally arrives and picks them up from
Casper, Wyoming's airport. He is twirling. Like, he's like, do do do, voguing on the baggage
return conveyor belt, standing up in his all electric Hummer. And you'll notice that they
don't do private jets anymore because Taylor Swift ruined
that for us private jet owners. Jeffree also whips out his huge (beep) military gun
with a silencer, and he's like, "You can drive with this on
the dashboard in this state." And it's like, that's really cool. Do you know how many people die
from gun violence every day? Do you know that just school
shootings and open shooters are an epidemic in this country? Like, why are you, I don't think that's cool. I don't think that's cool. When people can handle
and carry guns so easily, it makes them easier to get
into the hands of people who are gonna do bad things. People don't need guns. (beep) your guns. I don't even think they
need guns to kill the yaks. They just like beat them with a club. It also helps tenderize
their fibrous meat. So Jeffree's going on and on about how much simpler his
life is since he downsized, sold all of his Birkins and expensive jewelry
for millions of dollars. Seems like he was
liquidating a lot of asset and moving to much cheaper land. So yeah, that would be really
calming for some people. - Real hardworking town of cool people that just appreciate what they have. It's just been, I don't
know, it's magical. I never would have thought I would be here (chuckles) at all. - Aw, that was Shane's cue to make his wet diaper face of emotion. He's like, "Oh, I haven't
pretended to almost cry "since I blew out the crutch of my jeans." But this time, he's
crying non tears of joy 'cause he's a sensitive soft boy empath who is just so happy to see
his rich friend getting richer by slaughtering animals
and supporting the NRA. Mmm, I can't. Jeffree only lived in his like, oh, seven-bedroom mansion for a full year because I think that he
pretty much got in there and then his boyfriend/partner was like, "Enjoy your huge house. "I'm out." Jeffree also touches
on some other headlines that I forgot about since the pandemic, like when he was in a car
accident with a friend and apparently had no broken bones. But at the time, based on the Snapchat stories
and stuff from Jeffree, I thought he was probably
like one of those people made with joints out of paper. I thought he was a battered
and bruised bag of bones. But luckily, he didn't have
to have any pins in his spine. Listen to me. I sound like Meredith Gray. - It's crazy. I had mild scoliosis as a
kid, so the doctor told me, "Hey, compared to your old x-rays, "this accident straightened your back out, "actually, a little more." - That's crazy. Have you considered getting hit by a bus to see if it fixes your compulsive lying? Seems like you're having
good luck with these. They're actually
correcting medical issues. It's a free chiropractor. I'm not disputing that story
because I'm not a doctor. I also had mild scoliosis in seventh grade and it just went away on its own. So I guess my body is
its own car accident. So Shane discusses wanting to get a kid. They see the Star Yak Ranch
gate, which we've already seen. Jeffree also explains
that he does TikTok now, which is actually a better way to reveal his makeup
collections than YouTube is, which used to be the number
one way he would drive sale. - So are you gonna like show
me what a Jeffree TikTok is? - [Jeffree] Yeah, we'll do one together. - [Shane] Okay. Like, I don't know anything about it. - So it's easy. You just find one, like, okay, well, there's one that's trending that's like about the past. So Shane's here, it's a no brainer. I'm gonna be in no makeup, pull out the Conspiracy
palette, knock on it, huh. I'll be in a full Conspiracy look and Shane will be right next
to me like, "Uh-huh, hi." Let's go inside. - I just got chills. - And not just his everyday diet root beer diarrhea chills either. It was because Jeffree just crafted the greatest story that humankind
has ever told so casually, like it was nothing. First I'm gonna be like whoosh, and then we're gonna
show 'em the face paint that we picked out colors of. And it would be like, whoosh, but then you take this and
it goes sparkle sparkle. And then it'll zoop zoop zoop and a serve. And then suddenly, a whirlwind happens and you and I are sitting on Santa's lap and you look at me like,
"I told you so, honey." How is that giving anyone chills? It sounds like you just described the
dream I had when I mistook that bottle of melatonin
tablets for SweeTarts. I thought it was just
like a new boring flavor. I love SweeTarts. And the chewy SweeTarts minis, whoo! Those will get me going. Jeffree and Chris, this is
their first time meeting 'cause before, it was
Andrew as their cameraman. - I know we don't know each other, but I've never drank before,
but all my friends do. So I don't know how to make that, but I do have that and beer. I know that. - [Chris] Oh, my god! (laughs) - I hope Chris asked for
a micelada, michelada. Either way, from out here, it looks like Jeffree just was like, "I
know we don't know each other "but I racially profiled
your favorite drink for you." He said, "I don't drink,
so I can't figure out "how to personally mix two
liquids together for you, "but I can call one of
my alcoholic friends. "Maybe they can help. "Viva La Mexico?" Chris is Peruvian, Jeffree,
and you would know that if you watched the first
part of the first episode of the Shane Dawson podcast. You would also know that
he's afraid of sharks. He happens to be attracted to men who look just like Shane Dawson. And he also said that he's
a grower and not a shower. So you know, it starts to make sense why usually, the camera operator
makes it part of their job to never be seen or heard. Chris, sweetie, I wanted
you to stop giggling from behind the camera. That doesn't mean I wanted
you to start giggling in front of the camera while also talking about which
Disney cartoon characters you'd let pound you. Like, we're somehow
still missing the target in terms of Hollywood appeal. So Jeff, Jeff, Jeff, the makeup chef, he's like giving a life
update on who knows what. Like, they just love showing
footage of him from old videos, and I don't think that's fun. Honestly, once the whole
squad lands in Wyoming, the rest of the video
is pretty much noise, and I mean that literally. - [Shane] What is that? What is that? - [Chris] Yeah. - Those are grasshoppers. ♪ Always take me so high ♪ ♪ You are ♪ ♪ And I'm switching out where I'm going ♪ ♪ Stay on the fly just in time ♪ ♪ Other back where they go ♪ - I literally don't hear anything. - Well, that's your fault for living in an area
with wind and crickets. We can't criticize Shane for not being able to hear people talk. He's been too busy evolving
and changing as a person to spend $300 on wireless microphones. Like, this is the millionth series that you claim to be proud of but the audio is actually
hard to like, it hurts. You know the Shane and Jeffree
stans are gonna be like, "Well, so what? "I love Shane's videos "even though it doesn't
have perfect audio. "I still think the
content is fun to watch." ♪ Stay on the fly ♪
(wind howls) - Okay, so fun to watch, even on mute. To me, it's very unprofessional
to spend one to five years gathering footage and then
another trimester editing it into overly long episodes,
putting so much effort into generic pop songs
and decorative fonts but never one single brain cell towards capturing good audio. This is what my onboard
camera microphone sounds like if I didn't have this boom mic. Hello, welcome to my echoey,
hard to hear hellscape. Can I interest you in
a pumpkin spice scone or sous vide egg bite? Like, eh, I can't, the camera's too far
away for this to be good. Imagine wind. Imagine the wind. As I've said, but it's worth repeating because I think it's so
important in video production, the on-camera microphone
is almost never a good idea not only because they're lower quality and hidden behind a pinhole and closer to the cranking of the lens than the actual person talking, but the camera is almost never where the source of sound you want is. Like, my camera has to be over there and I want my voice picked up here. And furthermore, it's a mistake to think that bad audio is gonna be forgiven. According to studies,
most people will forgive a difficult to see image well before they can
tolerate hard to hear sound. That's definitely the case
with me watching this. Like, I would rather
stab myself in the ears than watch this. Yeah, that logic seems to track. Oh, I have to drink this. I'm driving to LA, and
it's already 5:57 p.m. Mama. (slurps) Oh, I just know that sound's gonna be
gross in that microphone. So Jeffree goes through
all of the palette launches that have happened since
the Conspiracy palette and it really shocked me. It was like so many, and I
remember two or three of them because they were controversial
for one reason or another. So that just kind of
illustrates how it's hard to catch the buzz about his
makeup like we used to, similar to how Kylie cosmetics
is suffering right now. In fact, Estee Lauder reported a loss, which normally, in times
of economic downturn, they call it like the lipstick effect where if more people
can't afford high ticket or high price items, they treat themselves to smaller luxuries like
new shades of lipstick. So like businesses make more money with like a $7 to $10 lipstick while cars and vacation and
houses stop selling as fast. But Jeffree doesn't
acknowledge any of that. He's like, "The brand is still great." - My god, I just realized that you haven't looked
at your phone once. - [Jeffree] I just don't care. - When we would hang out, it was this. - Fear of, oh my god, what's
gonna happen to me next doesn't exist anymore. - Me neither, but that's 'cause like, what else could happen to me? - [Jeffree] I know. - All right. And what? - You could get a chronic illness, or experience poverty,
or commit manslaughter. This is not a wishlist. I'm just answering his overdramatic and out of touch question. Like, what did happen to you? You lost a good portion
of your online audience, but not nearly enough to
be struggling for money. Far worse things can
and do happen to people every single day, Shane. That's how life is. Like, why do you wanna play the victim for being bad at your job? It's really hard to feel bad for you when you're sitting there with a Gucci cum rag in your pocket. What else could possibly
even happen to me? Well, for starters, I'm pretty sure Ryland is gonna leave you at the altar, so brace yourself for that. Only Shane. No, not only Shane, but of
course, leave it to Shane to perpetuate racial stereotypes and speak inappropriately
to underage children and then complain that he's the one being
negatively affected. Like, try being society. In fact, Shane is always
so desperate to seem like the most unlucky or unfairly
treated person in the room when he's usually the one
with the most privilege. Isn't that always the case? He was probably that kid in school who acted like he was the
only one in seventh grade to understand personal tragedy and loss because his grandma
died earlier that year. Sweetheart, we all have grandmas who die. And if they haven't died, they will soon. Ooh, I'm gonna jot that
down for my Christmas cards that I'm handing out to
children I don't know in the toy section of Target. ♪ Merry Christmas ♪ ♪ Merry Christmas ♪ ♪ Merry Christmas ♪ ♪ Merry Christmas ♪ ♪ Aah aah ♪ It's November, y'all, down on the range. So yeah, everyone's different,
everyone's different. But what we don't know is at
the end of the episode here is anything at all. I think I said in the last video that they decided they're
gonna be releasing the palette, but now I don't even
know that that's true. And then there's this
twist which lets me know that's not what the news was on the phone that Shane was acting so grave about. - Okay. - Oh my god, I haven't
seen this a few years. - [Shane] Okay. - [Jeffree] All right,
let's see it for real. - [Shane] Oh my god. (Jeffree laughs)
This is like the reveal! I've been waiting two years for this! - Shane could not be any more transparent about how much he thinks his work depends on having a reveal. Since he's kind of been trying to frame every single event that's happened as a reveal for one reason or another, sometimes it seems like
it's to build anticipation, and other times to make
Chris videotape his crotch. Oh, this is the reveal, this is reveal. This is the make or break moment that I'll put in the last 30
seconds of the last video. Otherwise, buckle up, buttercup. But this is where, you
know, Shane is like, "All right, let's get down to business. "We flew all the way the
(beep) out here, Jeffree. "Give us the money shot." - When did you wanna talk about stuff
- Quitting YouTube? - Oh! - It might be time to hang up my button. Mm-hmm. - Shane can't handle it. He's like, "Starfree, no, you can't quit. "The world can't go on
unless the two of us, "the magical makeup soul siblings, "upload a new piece of
digital garbage every week "so that we can convince people "to buy a piece of physical garbage." Sponsored by Buffy, soul sister. I don't understand why Shane is so upset. Like, it's not like either of
you upload frequently enough for this to make a big cultural impact. - No one cares about YouTube. Not one single person goes to watch it for enjoyment or fun
anymore like the old days. Even Maddie, everyone would
go home and go on the couch. And the pandemic created
Paramount, Showtime, Disney+. YouTube fizzled out. No one cares. - I mean, for you, it did, right? That's why you moved out of your mansion to sell meat in Wyoming looking like Mia Farrow of the prairie. But anyway, thanks for that insight, babe. I keep forgetting that in addition to being a trendy TikToker,
makeup mogul and meat purveyor, you're also a business
analyst with the the ability to just pull untrue facts from thin air. Here's how YouTube completely
fizzled out in 2021 to 2022. It's the second most visited
website on the planet with 1.7 billion unique monthly visitors, and 62% of people with an
account visit every day. Also, 80% of parents
with kids 11 and under say that their kids watch YouTube too. So I mean, it's generation YouTube, sis. But sure, I guess it's more
convenient for the narrative to be that nobody even
watches YouTube anymore. TikTok. TikTok's where it's at. That makes a much more comfortable reason for Jeffree Star to be quitting other than YouTube is thriving and he just lost
relevancy on the platform. No, no, YouTube fizzled out,
and that's why you're quitting based on your careful research, such as your former assistant,
Maddie, agreeing with you. This feels like what I just
saw David Dobrik saying about why he's quitting YouTube. It's like, "We've done
everything that there is to do." It's like, if that's
how you wanna spin it. - Every makeup review, every tutorial, every video, every surgery. We did (beep) makeup in hot air balloons and (beep) on a raft in
Montana and Yellowstone. I dipped a Beautyblender
in (beep) Yellowstone water and did my makeup. Like, who could top any of that? I already did it all. - Out of all the things on that list, why did he sound the most
impressed with himself about putting river water on his face? He yelled the word river water at us. It was scary. Besides, that's not really a stretch. Like, at the beginning of this series, I literally thought he was
an albino water moccasin. So interesting that people think they've done everything there
is to do with their platform when, no, like when have
you helped create space for people of color or
minorities, like the ones that Jeffree has a recorded
history of offending? When have you done a charity stream for the Black Lives Matter movement or even talked about trans
issues, or his gender identity, or different problems that
face any given community that he's a part of. I'm just saying, David Dobrik
too, it's like, you what? You played pranks, went to Europe and almost killed your friend? That's not everything to me. Like, there's not a lot
of great stuff in there. Seeing all those YouTube video
clips though does remind me, like, looking back, it does seem like, damn, YouTubers were desperate 'cause Jeffree would do that all the time. He'd be like, doing my makeup
in the trunk of my car. It's like, okay, seems humid. But I still don't know what
this has to do with the palette and I'm gonna remain not know until I watch the third
installment after a little break 'cause this is giving me a sore throat with seeing Jeffree think he's important. But look at the cliffhanger. - Time to Jenna Marbles
and do something else. - Or you could even do a Buzz Aldrin and blast yourself into
space with a rocket. Like, I don't get why
this has to be treated as though it's sad news. Jeffree Star has uploaded
maybe 12 YouTube videos in the last year, and they are getting far
less views than before, like under a million. And it's probably not as he said, because Paramount Plus was invented. And what does he mean that it's time for him to do other things? Jeffree, you are literally
always doing the most. He said, "Yup, the
makeup brand is thriving, "even though it's not. "And I'm a yak farmer,
but I don't kill the yaks "except for the ones that I do. "But I don't eat them,
except for all the time. "Also, I do TikTok now, but
just beauty, no dance videos, "except for the Star Ranch shimmy "in front of my prettiest yaks
that I don't kill for meat. "You know, just like Jenna Marbles." Like, what? She didn't do all that. I haven't heard from her. She's living a quiet life with her money and her
people that she loves. Like, what the (beep) is this series? Anyway, I'm glad that I kept my cool a little bit more than the first episode where I was ready to get a nine iron out and go to the driving
range and play some golf. No, no, I'm just kidding. That will be horrible. What do you think the reveal is gonna be? I think that they're just gonna show us the concept for this palette. Maybe Jeffree will be like, "I want you to help me
do my last YouTube video "and we're gonna make it
the biggest one ever." And I'm sitting here like, ugh. Can you make it under 50 minutes, please? 'Cause I have a life,
and that life involves watching all of the
Hallmark Christmas movies and Netflix holiday comedies
that are out on television, and Jeffree Star is coming
out at me, out of the river like Anaconda starring Jennifer Lopez. But what do you think? Let me know in the cons below. Do you think Shane is earnest and honest with his on-camera persona? Let me know. Also, give this video a big thumbs up. That will let me know that
you don't want any delay. You wanna see that third
installment broken down. (burps) But most importantly, if
you're new to my channel, I would love to have you
click that subscribe button right over here. That way, you never
miss new videos from me. I upload two new ones every week. So turn on notifications and you'll always be the first to know when I'm a snake slithering
through the river water, pissing on Jeffree Star's Beautyblender. What a classy ending. Also, I've got merch available,
including new enamel pins, and a Patreon where you can access exclusive virtual watch parties. Those are really fun. We watch an entire movie together, and there's a really fun chat every time. It's like the highlight of my month. And bonus content. You guys are all the greatest. Thank you for revealing the biggest reveal of all the revelations with me today. I will see you next time.
