chappell roan, fandom, and the lack of boundaries.

the funding for this video is provided by the amazing members of my patreon also contributions from viewers like you thank you yeah I start it from PBS Kids what you going to do fight me anyway R video I this is quite overwhelming and quite scary um I think for someone who gets um a lot of uh anxiety around people yelling at you it the the carpet is horrifying and I need to I yelled back FR of the CH turn I back you don't yell at me like that she's got a point she's an icon she's a legend and she is the moment now come on [Music] now the place be jumping it's my my you know what hey y'all it's harana and I'm back with another video hi hello how are you doing my name is harana and welcome to welcome back to the pirate ship also known as Harry hooks pirate ship I am the captain you were not my first mate I don't got no first mate because you want to know why bring your ear closer to the speaker so you can hear me clearly no one's worthy of being the first mate but hi hello hello how are you doing my name is harana and I like to make content based on Nostalgia and Family and Children's Entertainment and all the issues that I find with the N spes now um I want to get on here and just talk about fandoms issues with boundaries because it's much bigger than I thought it was if you guys are not familiar with the singer her name is Chapel Rome super duper talented woman there has been a lot going on lately with her with her basically standing up for herself and a lot of people are not happy with the way that she has been going about it one thing I have noticed about people in general is that y'all really don't like it when a woman stands up for herself especially when she is a woman of color chap morone is white by the way but I noticed that that is a lot worse if they are of color but anyways back to Chapel there has been numerous situations of her standing up for herself because she has felt as though she has been disrespected and the most recent occasion of this happening would have to do with her basically telling a photographer to shut the [ __ ] up because they were being rude to her and first first of all I'll support it like is she going to sit here and yell at somebody who was nasty to her I completely understand it she has every right to sit here and defend herself but I want to talk about chaperone fandom and the lack of boundaries because this is just not the only occasion that I know of where fandom has just gone too far and overstepped and let's discuss it but before we get into it um first of all I feel like I owe y a little explanation I've been away for a minute if you saw about Community page y'all will know I'm back in school but also I am just dealing with some personal matters as you guys know I ended up um you know losing my mom in the fall and I end up losing one of my like closest friends in the fall too so it's getting close to that time of year again so I just kind of been taking a lot more time for myself and I've been away from social media and because I'm back in school I am focused on being a good noodle in class and because of that I just kind of been taking some time away from work like YouTube but I will be back I will be lot more consistent with my channel in the second half of September but for the first half I just really needed a break and the second thing is okay um one thing I've noticed when I go to my website when it comes to like merchandise a lot of the stuff that's on the homage is no longer in stock but there are plenty of items that are still in stock like I'm literally sitting in my office right now looking at them so here's what I'm going to do I am going to go on the website and edit to where the items that are still in stock will be like at the top of the page so it will be easier for you all to navigate all right all right thank you now let's continue on with the video now before we go a little bit more into detail with chapel rone and what's been going on with her I just want to sit here and talk about when it comes to fandom and that is basically the people that are on the outskirts of entertainment they are the ones that are viewing it and engaging with the work that is what is going to be considered fandom for this video fandom is notorious is for their lack of boundaries and I have seen this happen in real life before at work and I have seen it numerous times online with the people that work Behind These series speaking up about just how fandom is out of control when I used to be really involved with the grates World fandom when I was in high school yes I was in the gy tomorrow fandom I've opened up about that on my channel like in the past but I remember that a lot of fans would go to the screenings of the series and then next to you know they would leak the episode like basically they would spoil the episode and put it out on like Twitter and Tumblr and it was making the writers the producers in the cast upset cuz they're like hey we understand that you guys are a fan of this series but y'all do realize that what you're doing is illegal and it ended up getting to a point where gr's world had to start filming start scenes without the audience being there and later on they just started filming episodes without an audience at all because as much as you love the show what you're doing is still considered disrespectful and this is something else that Phantom does That is rude as much as many of them don't want admitting and that is piracy literally when it comes to that fandom page on um TV trolls called fandom can't have nice things piracy is a recurring theme on that page of things things that people within phandom do as much as y'all don't want to admit it piracy is still wrong because you're still stealing somebody's work and I know people got mad at me in the past before for simply saying piracy is bad cuz they're like well I can't afford this and that and the third I get that I understand it this is not about television needing to be more affordable this is about how people are stealing people's work and throwing it out for free at the end of the day that's still wrong and the people Behind These series have every right to be angry about it when it is done no matter how much you dislike the cast and the crew or whatever that is going on behind the series they technically have every right to be angry with people stealing their work there have been numerous occasions where they have spoken up about piracy cuz I remember with the gr's world fandom piracy was a big thing where people would leak the episodes early before they had come out and they even spoken up about like hey please don't do that like even thinking back to model the pony which is a fandom that has had so many scandals and controversies piracy was a major one moving forward from the piracy discussion another reason like phandom just don't understand boundaries I want to give two examples with one that I had seen in real life we're going to talk about that one first for those of you guys who don't know I was an extra on the television series stranger things I worked on the third season and the fourth season and the things that I have seen with my own eyes on that production very very ghetto very very ghetto one thing about stranger things is when it comes to their extras they have an open casting call meaning that it is open to the general public you sign up if you meet the general requirements they take you but often times because there stranger things that they want to make sure you have that 80s look they end up cutting your hair and doing this and that and the third and some people are like di hard fans of the series so they'll literally do whatever it takes to get on that show they'll perm their hair they'll get a mullet they'll chop it off I personally didn't mind them cutting my hair cuz I needed a hair cut anyway but one thing about a lot of the fans on the series is that they did not understand that this is a job and that this is professional like we are here to work work a lot of fans would get in there and they would take pictures of the set and they would try to sneak and take pictures of the cast they would try and take pictures of their costumes and they would upload them on social media they would send the photos to stranger things fan pages the next thing you know they are banned from working on any other Netflix production but also y'all do know that these people Sue right like you can get sued like I have literally seen people get fired on the spot if they caught you out there with your phone and noticed that you took a picture because they will take it for you and go through your phone gallery they will literally wipe your entire phone like it was that serious but that was like a major issue that that production had and that was privacy cuz I remember one time when we were filming somebody had leaked the filming location of where stranger things was and a whole bunch of fans showed up to the set like even when it came to the extra that ended up getting the job the people that were fans that were experts specifically they would still try to sneak off and find the cast and ask them for pictures and I'm like y'all we cannot act like this we can't do this and it's sad because strer things is not the only production that this has happened with because I've seen it happen on other shows just as well like when I used to work on Black Lightning I know a lot of people would like simply try to get on the show to meet the cast and try to talk to them but another major example of this would have to be legacies a a lot of people know that I worked on legacies from like 2018 to 2022 like up until it ended and throughout the years there were just so many issues with fans signing up to be extras and um overstepping boundaries a lot of people don't seem to get that if you sign up to be an extra on a television show you are signing up for a job there is a reason that you are getting paid to be there cuz a lot of people don't seem to realize that extras get paid and it lowkey pays a little bit better than a lot of minimum wage jobs out here that's why I worked on legacies for so long but so many times throughout the years we would have issues with people signing up to be extras they basically show their ass they're fired and then next thing you know we have to have a meeting about what we are allowed to do and what not to do and then it just made everything worse on us the people that actually knew how to act right because that's the reason why a lot of television shows get like a group of extras that they know are going to behave and they really try to stay away from people that are like super fans of the material because the Vampire Diaries is something that's always been like very well known and even though a lot of vampire di fans weren't the biggest fans of legacies cuz leges is the third generation of the Vampire irus series they still wanted to be a part of this story they still did want a piece of it because I remember one time this is one of the days where I wasn't booked to work but they ended up filming out in the Covington square and if you know what the Covington square is that's mainly like the location of the Mystic Falls area that people always see all the time and I wasn't there that day but my co-workers told me that so many fans found out that they were filming up there that day and they were literally just acting a fool and they were trying to mom's dad and they were trying to talk to everybody and it was a lot I know the things you're dreaming of of me can't feel them too give me a little time and I will make all your dream I can give you what you want I can tell you what you want to hear if it's laughing on your mind I've got a little time but that don't mean it's a I can give you what you [Music] [Applause] [Music] want I thought I didn't even think this was really a thing because when I would watch TV and stuff like that you would see scenes of where fans would try to show up to the filming locations and try to get on set and try to talk to the cast and all of that but seeing it with my own eyes I was just like there's something very not right about that the next set of issues I want to talk about when it comes to fandom and the lack of boundaries is whether you like the person or not them setting their boundaries still stand and I feel as though that is what's going on right now with Chapel Rome because what we had saw with her basically telling that guy to shut the [ __ ] up it's very clear that the person had some type of ill feelings towards her and then right then and there she stood up for herself I don't care if that person disliked her they shouldn't have have yelled at her like that like what about that do you guys not understand like when I made that video talking about it's normal I was to be rude to people you are free to dislike who you want but you are not free to disrespect who you want and when I say you are not free to disrespect who you want you cannot go up to somebody you know of that you don't like and be rude to them I'm sorry that's just not okay want to know how I know because that's happened to me personally where somebody came in during one of my panels tried to be rude to me and somebody told them to get they ass out and I'm glad they did that shout out to that person if you watching my channel and you're the person who did that thank you so much for having my back back then like I didn't care that that person did didn't like me it's just the fact that you went out of your way to try to embarrass me and disrespect me in public is what I took issue with and that is what chaperon had issue with and honestly I wish I had it in me at that time to do what she did to that person I'm sorry that was iconic Behavior I have to stand her even when it comes to other celebrities that I have just noticed people have tried to be nasty to towards in real life I'm like y'all we can't do this there are numerous stories of how creators from television shows have had to limit their interactions with fandom because they have just gotten too many mean and nasty messages from the people I'm not the biggest fan of the ow house it just didn't grab me I was an amphibia girlly okay Calamity Trio those are my home girls right there like I love amphibia but we talking about the out housee Dana she's the Creator that's her name she literally had to limit her interaction on social media and with phandom because the people just were like complaining to her about certain creative decisions that she had made with the show there are decisions made with the in the ow house that I did not agree with but I'm not going to sit here and go off and complain to Dana like literally at her and yell at her and scream at her because of that cuz at the end of the day that's her show and she's free to do what she wants with it I don't like Thomas ashro as much as the next person he don't like me either cuz he blocked me like I don't know how he found my page but he blocked me but some miraculous ladybug fans have taken it way too far like why are we threatening this man can y'all not do that y'all can just sit here and say Hey Thomas I think what you did with this show was a bit misogynistic and also racially insensitive you don't have to S here and threaten to end a man's life can we not do that can we behave please like I said you free to dislike thas all you want but please don't threaten that man's life by the way you can get in trouble for doing stuff like that by the way y'all like please please Phantom can we get some decorum can we get some decorum please and even when it comes to a lot of public figures that aren't necessarily liked by their fandoms you still cannot go up to that person and just try to be nasty with them as much as I don't like Tera strong y'all cannot go up to that lady and be rude okay she has done numerous things that I don't like she has done numerous things that I don't agree with but I will respect her for having boundaries especially with some of the [ __ ] that she has had to deal with with going to conventions especially that Las Vegas My Little Pony convention I most definitely understand why she became a lot more picky with the cons that she chose to go to meaning she was trying to go to more bigger cons because they were a lot more established and I most definitely understand why they only wanted to take cash when it came to like her signing autographs because I even went to another convention before where a lot of the um guests were saying that they only wanted to take cash when it came to signing autographs and signing and taking photos with fans and whatnot and working with um like somebody that was a part of the program cuz I was paneling at this Con I was asking like the staff I was like hey why is it that so many of the guests only want cash when it comes to like you know signing autographs and taking photos and all of that and they were like oh because fans will literally try to like get the bank to reverse the um charge that they did for the autograph and they end up not being paid for their work I am telling you y'all make people being in the public eye see like it is like they are like fighting for their lives when it comes to them wanting to be paid for certain things because there is another brand it's an anime clothing brand that I know of I met the owner one time at a um vending event I remember she had spoke up about how somebody had spent like probably like about $1,000 with her shop and the next thing you know they like reversed the charge and it literally like you know by the way it took out from her like you know pay because small businesses they depend on the pay that they get from their sales but also it literally could make it look like they were trying to do some type of fraudulent thing I don't know what it is about people being in the public eye and people feeling as though they can disrespect you simply because you are a public figure and it irritates me the most because a lot of people are like oh you signed up for this what did you expect yada yada yada first of all why have we normalized bad workplace environments why have we normalized being treated bad at work why have we normalized workplace treatment that is something that has always always annoyed the hell out of me how it is just normalized to be treated terribly at work like chapelon literally was at work because when it comes to Industry events like award shows the guests the artists are there to work and she was literally working and this person thought that they can treat her bad at job she was like no but I've seen this happen numerous times too like well I will go into Target and people will literally start mistreating the workers there over the little things hey the self checkouts not working and they will be like excuse me you need to come over here and help me right now that is not how you talk to people why is it that when y'all call people on the phone for customer servers you act as though you can cuss them out when they most likely have nothing to do with the problem that you are having why is it that y'all are so comfortable with screaming at retail workers but also why are CEOs so comfortable with screaming after their entire staff that is just something that I just truly don't understand like can we get some decorum please I feel like we just live in a society where nasty rude behavior is just normalized so when we see situations like this where somebody calls out people for being nasty to them chaperone especially people are like what did you expect this is what you signed up for baby nobody signs up to be mistreated they don't absolutely not but um we just going to cut this rant short we're going to cut it right here thank you guys so much for watching this video I just needed to get this off my chest because I am tired of just people mistreating a celebrity that just like it's not even just celebrities that I necessarily like it's just like why are y'all mistreating people that y'all don't know like y'all do not know these people but yeah that's pretty much all I got to say I don't really have much of anything to promote other than like be actually putting the stuff that's still in stock at the top of my website so y'all can see it better that is my fault my apologies but yeah thank you guys so much for watching have a great day night whatever time of the day you chose to watch this video I'm just thankful that you're watching with the ads on all right thank you goodbye
