Miranda sings the news
The allegations against Colleen Ballinger have resurfaced and gained momentum due to new videos released by prosecutor Adam McIntyre, reigniting discussions about Ballinger’s interactions with young fans.
Colleen, known by her online persona Miranda Sings, first addressed McIntyre’s allegations in 2020, shortly after he posted his first YouTube video detailing their relationship. In the 25-minute video, shared by McIntyre, he claims Colleen misbehaved with him when he was 13 years old. The allegations included Colleen treating him like an “unpaid intern,” sending him unused underwear and making him uncomfortable by sharing details of her divorce.
In response to the allegations, Colleen released her own video, in which she apologized, admitted her tendency to overshare with fans and described the underwear incident as a “stupid, stupid mistake” that was overblown.
Now, three years later, the 2020 allegations have resurfaced, in part due to new videos released by McIntyre in early June. Furthermore, other individuals, who were once fans of Miranda Sings, have also shared their stories.
