Update on tails, life, and It Gets Better.

Hey guys!

This is a new video where I talk about my crazy life and a new film I'm in and also updates on my new tail that is being made by the mertailor! It is also a video where I address my awesome concert experience with Traci Hines and Jodi Benson and I also address homophobic bullying and how it should stop.

Hmmm so are you saying Jodi Benson is homophobic?

@KingAaron19

I don't like naming names, but yes.

@taimoset

Ah screw it. Not worth getting bent out of shape over. Just remember she isn't Ariel :) YOU are beautiful inside and out. Don't let what she said ruin her in your eyes. She is just misguided.

@KingAaron19

Honestly? I'm more appalled for Howard Ashman than I am for myself.

I'm slowly being able to listen to her music again, but only as Ariel. Not any of her solo stuff.

Mind you hearing all that misguided hurtful words coming out in what sounded exactly like Ariel's voice hurt like hell.

You kind of look like Alicia Silverstone :3 lol

Jodi Benson needs to wake the fuck up. Think about it.. little girls and GAY MEN.. are her biggest fan base! I understand she is into her religion and stuff... but.. really? She's only slitting her own throat.

In god's own immage means, we have free will and can make things.

God said to love yourself and your neighbor, you are not allowed to kill, but you are not allowed to kill yourself. and being gay is a sin towards god stated over and over in the bible.

I guess Sebastian was right when he said "Somebody ought to nail that girls fins to the floor" LOL

This is very, very, VERY saddening. I have idolized Jodi for as long as I can remember, and to know she would think I am a bad person for being gay makes me near tears..just sickeing to me. Was she very mean with you when you told her, or was she still kind? I hope she was gracious of her fan. :/

[Digitalfairy]

It's ok. I'm severely disappointed in Jodi Benson too when I found out.

I'm straight and I admire your courage for being tru to yourself through an through.

[darthvalor07]

When I heard Jodi was 'gay-hating', I was denying it over and over till I read about a person's experience about it earlier today. Of course, I'm not gay (I'm actually bisexual), but the truth can hurt, BIG TIME. :(

[dottiedots221]

Hey :) I really like your video! So, the homophobic at the end was Jodi Benson, right? (B/c one of the topic comments). Yeah, I'd be really upset too!!!

Anyway, yeah I agree! i'm straight and a Catholic, but yeah I don't believe you'll go to hell for being gay, bi, or transexual. I mean, it's no big deal. You're only liking a person and that's it :) I don't think God doesn't care that much if you're gay.

I know Traci personally and I can say with confidence that she is one of the least fake people I have EVER met. And, contrary to popular belief, she's not overly obsessed with Ariel. She likes her, yeah, but I have seen far more obsessed fans.

And believe me, I know Jodi is a person. She has faults just like anyone else. She's not Ariel either.

[KingAaron19]

BTW I LOVE TRACI! She looks just like Ariel. I'd love to meet her. I show her off to all my friends and they think she is whacky cuz she dresses as a "fictional character" but that is what I love! Ariel is not fiction! She lives in a world in another universe. Prove me wrong before I prove you right. (I might be insane but i'm happy!)
