YouTuber Colleen Ballinger, known for her "Miranda Sings" character that earned her a Netflix show, has come under fire after videos of her past inappropriate behavior have resurfaced online.
Ballinger posted an apology – while playing the ukulele – after she was accused of inappropriate conduct around minors. But still, fans are continuing to condemn her and drudge up past inappropriate behavior, including a video in which she appears to be in blackface.
Ballinger started posting comedic videos online about 15 years ago, developing her most famous character, "Miranda Sings," and amassing 10.7 million subscribers on the YouTube page she made for the awkward, tone-deaf singer with smudged red lipstick. She now posts vlog-style videos about her life and family on her own YouTube page, which has 3.31 million subscribers.
