  • doing what you want is not a sale out the person calling you a sale out is only wanting you to be like them. ignore them.

  • You are perfect. Don't forget it.

  • @tyleroakley you are! <3<3

  • @tonjesml We love you too! And we trust you. If you say Somae is helpful for you and maybe others, we believe you. If you say Doctor Who is brilliant, we believe you (and you're right). Ignore jerks; they're always like. Just remember; those of us who support you are not here to troll, or be mean, or judge you. We're here because you are awesome, and you deserve our attention.

  • @HHVirus1 Unnecessarily rude

  • Meghan, you are fantastic. Don't let anyone ever tell you you are a sellout. You are wonderful, strong, and talented. Also, your love for Doctor Who makes me want to give you a giant hug.

    I know that if I knew you in real life you would be an inspiration. You make me want to get a vocal coach so I can be like you. YOU ARE INSPIRATIONAL AND PUNCH THE HATERS IN THE FACE. Okay? <3

  • Misfits is the greatest show. I convert as many people as I can too, lol.

  • I love you completely. I wish you the best with everything!

  • You are awesome! i subscribed!

  • I just subbed because of this video, keep up the good work.

  • Oh man, if there's one thing I know about singers, it's that once they start making money, all the trolls come out and start screaming "sellout!" It doesn't matter that these people DESERVE to make money for their amazing talent. Besides that, you're a really beautiful woman and I admire you for trying to lead a healthy lifestyle.

  • ur amazing just the way u r...... never change <=======that sounds like a yearbook but its so true

  • @slbrey Be quiet douchebag.

  • @slbrey you're such an ignorant douchebag. go learn some manners and stop being such a troll on youtube. oh and stop hating on such a talented girl. i'd like to see you have as much talent in your entire body than she does in her pinkie.

  • @slbrey Someone needs their diaper changed.

  • @slbrey wow. shut up you douche bag.

  • @slbrey it says you at 27 on your profile. if you really are 27 you wouldnt be acting like a 10 year old and giving shit to meghan. shes 25 and your 27 so grow the fuck up already!

  • Fly above all them haters girl :).

  • I love you meg!...don't let haters get to you girl!

  • This video is incredibly inspirational. Do not stop doing what you love to do (I know you won't!).

  • you're making me cry D:

  • Why someone would try and make others feel bad for making positive changes is the dumbest thing I've heard in a looooong time. It's not like you're anorexic and will die if you change something, for frig's sake! Do whatever makes you feel good.

  • People are stupid, definitely don't listen to them. Successful does not equal sellout. Keep on keeping on.

  • <3 i love you

  • I'm going to leave a video response I made earlier this year about my personal weight issues. But, I wanted to tell you that there's nothing wrong in wanting to be healthy. Opinions are like assholes, everyone has one. Don't let the Negative Nellies in life affect your life. You are you and that what's I've always admired about you and all the girls at PLS. Anyone who puts expectations or judgements upon you isn't worth the time nor energy. Grats on the weightloss and healthier life!

  • I just wanna say you inspired me to work on losing weight! Also, I think you should know that you are beautiful no matter what size you are! Keep your head up and don't let anyone bring you down! =)

  • (((((( HUGS )))))) Im so glad to see you in this video and seeing how amazing you feel and how well your doing, I know the feeling about the back problems im the same way so hold your head up like you do and keep being amazing :)

  • congratulations!

  • oh don't take it personal. There will always be some one who doesn't like what you do. Don't even listen.

  • Misfits too? Okay, I'm in love...

  • your great :)

  • peace.

  • You've lost so much weight now. You should be proud of yourself. You are so talented. Please be happy, you have tons of fans that love you.

    You are such a genuine person. Such an inspiration.

  • 3:40 - Marry me.

  • this is so inspiring :") thank you for sharing yourself with usssss <3

  • . . . and that's the reason to change your lifestyle, for health reasons, no other. I have to say, Meghan, you have had fans who loved you regardless of what a few boneheads think or say. Maybe you've heard it a million times over, you're a beautiful and talented lady!! I hope you live a long time to do what you are doing. Just do what you and those who love you will follow. Emotional is okay, btw. It just reminds us you're still human ;) . . .

  • Keep up the good work! I appreciate you sharing your work.

  • Cry all you want girl!

  • you're doing amazing, keep it up!

  • YOU ARE AMAZING!! :)

  • Cry all you want - never apologize - and keep singing. Talent is hard to come by - you have it oozing out of you. Wanna pop over for a healthy dinner? I'd love to chat!

  • I'm really sorry about your dds. Thats one of my main health issues. I hope your weight loss makes it less of an issue plus you need to be careful you don't get arthritis in your back. I wish you the very best.

  • Meghan, I haven't seen many of your videos. But I enjoyed this. You seem so sincere and personable. I am happy that things are getting better. I hope that your back problems go away soon. And I hope so much that this year to come is endlessly awesome. Keep on not forgetting to be awesome. *high fives*

  • Meghan, you have no idea how much I FREAKING LOVE YOU! :) I can't stress how much I can wait for you new album! :)

  • From my own experience you don't have to worry about what others say. If you know you are doing what you want and need, then forget about the haters. They have their own issues they needs to deal with. Keep on keepin' on! *hug*

  • You're really amazing and you work so hard! You're an inspiration :)

  • @YouTubeboy just leave.

  • i know how you feel, i am 35 and have 4 ruptured disk. 10 years ago i hurt my back and in 10 years i have shrunk 4 inches. My doctor said i have advanced degenerative disk disease, he said i have the back of a 60 year old man. So stay strong and to hell with the haters.

  • <3

  • I know how you feel, I am 23 and have fibromyalgia and numerous allergies. It sucks, but I am starting to feel better, slowly. And I am facing up to the fact that I need to lose weight and eat right to help sort myself out. It feels good to start seeing improvements in areas of my life, even tiny ones.

    And DON'T apologise for crying!! You are a real inspiration! :)

  • were you ever a barista for starbucks by the way?

  • my name is megan and im overweight too. it is tough. hang in there girl. you rock. ;)

  • p.s the people talking shit calling you a sell out is just upset that they have not came as far as you. Keep losing the weight for YOU, so glad your back is feeling better. Your fantastic.

  • Good for you girl:) 

  • You're so inspiring. I love you. And let those "haters" be your motivators! Keep your head up gorgeous! They'd KILL to see you fall!!!

  • Keep on rocking

  • I am so happy for you for all the amazing things that are going on in your life :) Being healthy and continuing to do all of the amazing music you do is great, and I LOVE LOVE LOVE you! Be well and happy!!

  • I love you. I hope you feel better.

  • I love you so much.

  • so you're a sell out coz you choose to better your life plus you are successful? if people put more time into their lives as much as you have and stopped bitchin' then maybe they could have something good in their lives as well!

  • Congratulations on the weight loss, and the album! I am super happy for you! As for the person that called you a sell out they are only jealous it is as simple as that. They are not worth your tears. HUG :)

  • Your honestly an amazing personn

  • This does not make you a sell out. It makes you want to improve your health because you are amazing and talented. You don't have to be a sell out when you want to be healthier.

  • You are amazing.

  • You're such an inspiration! I stumbled across your vid a few years back, it was the Kelly clarkson/Police mash up, i was hooked straight away! I know what it's like being 'big' etc, & i too have lost 4 stone, i have dreams of persuing a career in music just like you, so i would be so honoured if you watched my youtube vids on my channel! Your feedback would mean the world to me =) Keep doing what you are doing, and to quote Rihanna 'don't let the bastards get you down'! Head high & STRUT!

  • i'm glad you're trying to help yourself :)

    you're gorgeous and you deserve the best!

  • just so you know...you completely kick ass <3

  • You are right!!! You will enjoy your success a lot more if you feel healthy and strong! We want you to have the energy to perform because we love you and think you are so talented!!!

  • no way your a sell out, you are amazingly talented.. and so funny !!!

  • you have a gorgeous personality!x

  • ignore the assholes, hun...you're awesome, and they're just jealous ^_^

  • People calling you a sellout? Wow, they must lead sad little lives.

    If you can make money doing what you love, then I think you have the perfect job my friend.

  • You're so cute.. "WHAT IS THIS?!"

    Your true fans are so over-the moon for you and your success in everything you do. We are so happy you have your album- your drive to be healthy and that the world is finally acknowledging your talent.

    I don't know if you watch Glee, but it's something Lauren says that stuck with me. Nobody wants the 'Perfect" Prom Queen that they wish they were. They want the Prom Queen that's just like them. You are our Prom Queen! <3 =] Keep Heart!

  • love you!! in no way are you a sellout!!

  • I've got a very similar disease and I don't think I ever heard someone stream out my own feelings that I stuff down quite so succinctly. Thanks for speaking out - it's nice to know I'm not the only one fighting these struggles I feel I'm too young for and sap my creative energy. It was brave of you to put this out there. I love your music and never posted until now. Thanks and I can't wait to buy the album. You are awesome!

  • I forgot to mention. If you are living in MI you may be elligable for medical marijuana. I am a patient for EDS. I would contact the ASA for more information.

  • Grl- more power to you- I am sending nothing but positive energy your way. Don't be sorry for crying boo, you have emotions! You are an artist so you have EXTREME emotions. Good luck, and keep us updated about NY XO

  • You are beautiful and you are wonderful and you inspire me.

    This honestly made me tear up. You are passionate about things and I respect you for it. Congratulations on losing 15 pounds! It amazes me that you're so determined to do things and you shouldn't care what people think because they're just too scared or insecure to do it themselves and they're upset that you're successful while they're not.

    Never stop believe in yourself. Love yourself for who you are.

    You are beautiful.

  • You aren't a sell out at all. A sell out is someone who promotes things for money even if they don't like what they are promoting. You are passionate about what you are promoting, you want to help yourself and others too. if you get a few bucks from it that's just a bonus, who doesn't want to make money. Especially doing something you are passionate about and that could help people. What do those haters do for money? probably put on a fake smile and serve assholes in retail or fast food.

  • You're an inspiration to others so the rest just need to get perspective and think about the consequences of their actions. Unfortunately there are so many haters out there. I'm proud of you!

  • People will only call you a sell out because they are jealous. You have an amazing talent, you have a great love for life and you're becoming more successful. People who are not satisfied with their lives and their success will want to lash out and say hurtful things. I say carry on doing what makes you happy cause at the end of the day happiness is the most precious thing in life.

  • you're definitely not selling out, i wrote on your fb wall the other day, i know u get the lots but you replied so maybe you'll remember a bit. ANYWAYS point to my message, you're not selling out because i am showing EVERYONE your songs. and i know a lot of people ;-) so really you're just getting more and more famous by the day because i know im not the only one promoting you. keep up the excellent work doll, you're doing great!

  • Who ever made that comment about selling out should suck rocks in a dark closet. I'm happy for you. You're awesome, don't let anyone tell you otherwise. I was hit by a drunk driver 7 years ago and broke my neck, thoracic and lumbar spine. I've had three reconstructive surgeries which were real hard. The accident also activated a latent process called degenerative facet and disc disease...sound familiar? It is a very difficult condition to live with.Be gentle with yourself, things will get better

  • For every one HATERS you have, There will always be five LOVERS!!!

  • Just want to give you a big hug xx

  • Why, oh why, could we not have you on our record label?

    Quite simply, you are an inspiring person who needs even more recognition.

  • whoever called you a sell out should really go fuck themselves!! Being happy and succeeding does not make you a sell out! It means YOU ROCK!! And as far as losing weight good for you if that's what you need to do to be health and makes you comfortable, people always have something to say, especially when they can't get their shit together and are failures! Why wouldn't you make money if you can? And I saw you on ELLEN it was great! Good for you!

  • yay for ur love of Doctor Who....lol... ur awesome!......never apologize!

  • NEVER be sorry that you cried. ... thanks for sharing, good luck and many happy thoughts your way.

  • 3 meals a day an good sleep is essential for a healthy life style if u borderline starv ur self ur bdoy freaks out an when u do eat it stores all that fat thats how my twin blew up caus e he only eats once a day somtimes an its not the healthiest choice when he does so yea eat 3 meals a day ur body wont worry that ur starving it an wotn store all that junk that or ucould have a thiroid problem or a slow motabolisim but as long as ur healthy its ok to be bigger if ur healthy an bigger

  • You are better that a good chunk of the music industry, both as a musician and a person. Come up to Vancouver soon!

  • i love you:)

  • congrats on the 15 pounds :)

  • "sellout" is what haters say when an artist gets paid. Tell em to f' off. Be beautiful. Be you. <3

  • every artist wants to make it, every musician wants to be signed to a major label, have millions of fans and sell millions of albums, it's part of being an artist, and many more wish they could have the opertunitys you have had, you are not a sell out, you are a musician trying to make it. don't let anyone stop you from geting your dreams.

  • You need not say any more about your back, my mother has the same condition and as well as a few other problems with her back and hips. I congradulate you on the weight loss, I congradulate you on being you, on how wonderful it is to see someone who isn't just going to sit there doing nothing and saying "that's Life".

  • You are a brilliant artist and all around great indivisual. For all the effort you have put in to getting where you are now you deserve to have your time to cry, luagh and rest. You deserve every happiness that can come and I hope it does. Keep up the fight! I am cheering for you as are many others!

  • You are the most inspirational person I've ever known. You are a ROLE MODEL. You're doing what most 25 year-olds AREN'T doing: trying to live a better life. You don't talk about how much alcohol you drink, or how many drugs you use, which is the subject of conversation for a lot of young people, but rather, you talk about how you're trying to CHANGE YOUR LIFE, and how PROUD of yourself you are. Do you KNOW how inspiring of an individual you are? You deserve the finest things life has to offer.

  • Meghan...you are amazing...you deserve all the success you are having. People are stupid and probably a bit jealous of your success so they are gonna say stupid stuff. Wishing you much success on ALL your journeys...you are so talented!!!

  • You are amazing .. what you do is amazing ... love what you do ... and so wish i could come and see you live ... would be sooo epic :D

  • what is up with people calling YouTube stars as sellouts??

    they work just as hard as anyone else....

    I love you meghan! keep doing what your doing and you'll go much further than anyone who calls people sellouts!

  • Don't let anyone get to you, you are AWESOME!:D

  • I love you Megan!!!

  • don't mind the haters. seriously. this just happened with GaGa. IDIOTS said she sold her album for 99 cents to gain chart records. HOW STUPID CAN U BE TO THINK someone sells an album for 99 CENTS ?! LOOL.

    I love u so much. I have been here since day 1. and here to stay :] U are so amazing and keep on going with it. u are literally one of THREEE people I follow on youtube regularly.

    I love u. I cried today when listening to Cosmic Love. U released so much out of me.

    p.s. good job on health!!

  • Misfits is a great show.

  • You also do not need to apologize for crying ♥

  • Good for you! You shouldn't apologize and you should celebrate the good things in your life. Congratz on the Album! I hope you make the music video and I get to see it!! :)

  • Just wanted to start off by saying you are my favorite..I think you are wonderful. If anyone has a problem with you or what you are posting or commenting about, it is their option to not watch/suscribe to your pages, without adding their negative comments. Obviously, since you are so successful and talented-other peoples problems and insecurities are going to be manifiested in hurtful comments towards you. Keep strong, I'm so glad you are feeling healthy and come to MN for a show!! :)

  • Unfortunately people get jealous.... please don't make the mistake some make of letting the naysayers motivate your vlogs. I'm not dissing this one or saying 'Don't talk about that'... I mean you're a person and you feel stuff and say it if you want to but it can become a trap. People will bitch and that hurts cause you are trying hard to make them feel good so I understand but no matter what they say you and your music are great and we love you. Let that be your motive! ...not the bummers.

  • I love you girl, you are awesome!

  • you're beautiful.

    looking forward to the album.

  • Meghan, I love you!!

    You are amazing! :)

  • Meghan, you are such a wonderful amazing woman. Do what you feel and say what you mean, because those who mind don't matter, and those who matter, don't mind.

    On a side note? OMFG NEW MEGHAN TONJES ALBUM. YOU GUYS!!!

    ljaf;ajfkldajfl;ja

    xx

  • im so srry people make assumptions about u to make themselves feel better. the internet is a cruel world and also a magical place. it made u famous and brought ur singing to a whole new level because u got the courage to sit in front of a camera and do wat u love doing. dont let those who wish they had such a good opportunity as u bring down ur day. they hav no idea wat u r going through. u r beautiful and amazing and worth it. keep on singing meghan.

  • I don't think you owe anyone an explanation for things you're doing in your own life -- if they dont' get it, they don't get it! If you are happy, then that is what matters at the end of the day. I understand back problems -- I had my second discetomy last month, it's the second time in 2 years. I am 22 years old. I can't explain how good I feel, but it's incredible and I wish you the same results. Chin up & head down!

  • You're awesome!!! Never give up, and always follow your dreams!!!! :)

  • all i can say is that we all send you love <3

  • internet-five.

  • I've been really unhappy for the last 2 months. It's probably because I have exams and my boring new job and in 2 monts I have a painfull surgery. Right after I have recovered from that surgery I have to go to the army for 9 months. Right after that I might go to college, that is if I'm lucky. My friends are going away and so am I. I'm moving away from home to a place that's probably going to suck. Everything's going to change during the next year. But it's okay...I just wanted to share with you

  • Meghan can you watch my recap video on the Billboard 2011 Awards on my channel :)

  • Hun, don't ever apologize for achieving something! I was in the same boat as you. I became so overweight that I could barely go up the stairs without my knees screaming in pain and I finally decided enough is enough. I went on a diet and started going to the gym and lost FORTY-FIVE pounds! Something I thought I would never be able to do! And I feel so good about myself and I want to continue until I reach my goal. Just letting you know if I can do it so can you! Never stop doing your best!

  • Oh gosh, congratulations on all your amazing achievements. I haven;'t been subscribed for that long but I know that you;ve been working hard and I hop that one day I can be able to reach my goals too(once i find out what my goal is). I'm just so happy for you and you deserve to be proud of it all.

  • I wish people understood that making music is EXPENSIVE. You can't just sing and have an album appear in your hands. You can't magically teleport to venues and jedi-mind-trick yourself out of paying to rent the space. And if you're not guaranteed a profit, you can't just take a month off of the crappy job that pays your bills so you can tour. Taking little bursts of money in exchange for product placements so you can keep doing what you love is not wrong. It's necessary, or the music stops. <3

  • @devilishlypure I hope so much that you feel better and congratulations on getting just a little bit closer to being able to do what you love every day! <3

  • do you.  eff the haters. you're amazing.

  • Even if you were getting paid for promoting something i wouldn't hold it against you, actually i would be quite glad you got the money. <3

  • do whatever you wanna do, say whatever you wanna say! that's the way to go, don't listen to shitheads wanting to get you down, all they are is jealous because they don't know what it means to LIVE! and that's what you do! you're awesome!

  • hugs

  • You are gorgeous and amazing! Do NOT let people bring you down. People tear you down because of their own insecurities. It really has nothing to do w you. They do not deserve a reaction! You do you! No apologies. No regrets!

  • If I saw you in person, I would cry. Please come to NYC. <3

  • @KikuChrisy I'm in NYC! There's a meetup tomorrow at The Frying Pan in Chelsea! Come out!

  • @tonjesml

    WHAT WHAT WHAT! D:!!!! WHAT TIME! WHEN WHERE????? I Have off of work tomorrrrooowww (wednesday)

    Where can I find the details????

  • @tonjesml Hello :)

    Try searching on youtube "Peace Pillows Lumbar Exercises", it helped me A LOT with my back paint. It's a great warm-up before getting out of bed in the morning. Another useful exercise is called "Lumbar Stabilization Plank", and helps you gain more strength, witch is very important, in order to prevent further damage to your spine. Dieting and weight loss will also help, but the exercises will do you much more good when it comes to your back health.

    PS. I LOVE YOU :)

  • I'm so proud of you! Do this for you and NO ONE ELSE. Just never lose sight of the fact that you're doing it for your health. I love you, you're an inspiration! Keep on being awesome!

  • I'm so happy for you Meghan! I'm rooting for you! You are an inspiration... thank you for sharing .... SmileyD

  • you go gurl

  • Comment removed

  • CONGRATULATIONS on losing the 15 POUNDS and for soon FINISHING YOUR CD. Never mind what people say. That's their problem. You don't need to worry about their issues. YOU HAVE ENOUGH GOING ON IN YOUR LIFE that you should be PROUD OF. :)

  • <3

  • We love you, and we're all wishing the best for you. Except the idiots. They can go fall in a ditch.

  • Your amazing :)

  • How exactly are you selling out? Do those people who said that even know what a sell out is? I know how you feel being 25 and not being able to do things 25 year olds can do. I am also 25 and have degenerative disk disorder, along with degenerative arthritis in all my joints.

    I am so excited that you are finishing an album, I can't wait to hear it. One last thing you ARE NOT a sellout, you are an amazing person doing amazing things.

  • I <3 YOU!!!!!

  • I love Dr. Who too!! And btw you are amazing, Screw those people!!

  • Ah! Suprized anyone would say that. It actually doesn't make sense. A sell out is someone who sells out of what they love doing into something that isn't them, for cash or fame or whatever. Hopefully doing what u love here will be a profitable career!

    Congrats on the loss! Congrats on NYC! Have fun :)
