For sure but that’s not what I was implying. 

I mean I understand celebrity worship for sure   I guess it’s more about what that celebrity has to offer. There are tons of rich people or celebrities or just successful people, LGBT or not, who could have a camera follow them but I probably wouldn’t care to watch unless I really found them interesting for some reason or another.

It’s crazy to me how many people are interested in Jeffree to the extent of watching long content about his day to day life. That’s more than just watching his videos for make-up tips, these people must genuinely love him and/or find him genuinely interesting. Or else they would get bored and not watch, right? They keep watching  

I don’t get it but I don’t have to get it. Just thinking out loud.

 

I don't care about cosmetics so by default I don't consume much Jefree Star, but uninteresting isn't a word I'd use to describe him. I'd say he is quite interesting.

He is a queer, gender bending, self-made multimillionaire, with a cold sardonic wit, who spends his days going from orgies to boardroom meetings. There is something deeply peculiar about a businessman with face tattoos carrying a Birkin bag.

Maybe people are interested  in the excess of his lifestyle. Maybe people are interested in his total disregard for social norms. Maybe people are interested in the way he is a magpie for drama. I'm not sure. But he certainly provokes interest in many people.

He went from broke to being a multi millionaire in just a couple years. He was semi-famous in the past with MySpace and his music career. He has a controversial image. He built up an indie brand from almost nothing to being one of the most successful. He flies in a jet all around the world. Unlike Kylie he is literally self made and that’s very very uncommon. Most successful people start from something. And none of this existed just a few years ago. That’s interesting to me  there isn’t anyone you can really compare to Jeffree as far as his life story.
