YouTuber, Olivia Jade, revealed her true feelings about enrolling in college months before the infamous college scam emerged.
Olivia Jade is known to the YouTube community as a beauty guru and fashion channel and she has surpassed 1.9 million followers at the young age of 19. In the recent scandal regarding celebrity parents and the bribes they paid to allow their children to be admitted in to some of the top schools in the United States, Jade and her mother, Lori Loughlin, found themselves on the forefront. Fox News stated, “Loughlin and her husband, Mossimo Giannulli are accused of agreeing to pay $500,000 in bribes to have their two daughters designated as recruits for the University of Southern California crew team despite that fact that neither child participated in the sport.”
Since Jade and her mother are so well known in the industry, this scandal took a toll on both of their careers. Jade has recently been dropped from her collaboration with Sephora which recently released a new palette with her name on it. Along with many hate videos and comments online, Fox News reported that a classmate says she’s not shocked at the family’s alleged involvement with a nationwide college admissions scandal. Jade was also attacked for posting several YouTube videos stating “I don’t really care about school.” This added fuel to the fire for more YouTubers to comment on the matter. Videos have been released such as Sophielovexo’s, “I got rejected from my dream school and it’s Lori Loughlin’s fault” and Emma Monden’s, “Dear Olivia Jade, From a USC Reject“.
Jade is also accompanied by her sister, Isabella Giannulli in the wake of the criticism. Both have reportedly withdrawn from their classes due to bullying at their school according to Page Six. Although they were both involved in the scandal, it is yet unknown whether they had knowledge of it all. After all, they are still both young girls and this type of negative attention can be overwhelming and disheartening for anyone. Unfortunately, since their mother and father are both in the public eye, we find that they seem to be the easiest to blame. No comment have currently been made by Jade or her sister’s behalf.
