About

Tana Mongeau is an 18-year-old Youtuber from Las Vegas, Nevada who got famous off of storytimes and her 'stalker' videos. She has 2.4 million subscribers and was the fastest growing female Youtuber of 2016.

Tana claimed she was attacked on her tour. One visitor was too much for her, while posing for a photo, the phrase he used instead of "Say Cheese" was "say" followed by the n-word, which led Tana to flee the scene, and make a video about the encounter. Unbeknownst to her she was just humiliated and brought to light by another Youtuber, IdubbbzTV. Tana proceeded to exxagerate and lie about the encounter in her video that day, which he revealed in his own, a few weeks later.

Development

2012/2013/2014:
When Tana was 12, 13, and 14, she made multiple racist tweets, snapchats, and was caught on video multiple times.

Twitter:

Snapchat:

Videos:

2015:
Old tweets have been exposed, drama and "exposing" videos were made in the community. She apologized, deleted the tweets, spoke out about racism, and said that she changed and didn't realize what she said was bad. She had a black friend and their parents didn't say anything about the use of the word. She said that she thought the n-word meant something like "homie" rather than oppressive term. She even changed her twitter name and icon to #BlackLivesMatter for a time.

December 10th, 2016:
Tana already has 2 million subscribers at this point. Tana Mongeau sends out a tweet, saying:

She deleted the tweet shortly after because as she said on Snapchat that she doesn't stand by telling people to kill themselves, and a fan of hers had recently committed suicide. She also said that "kill yourself" was also thrown around in conversation jokingly (I assume in a leafy way) and she doesn't use it in her vocabulary anymore. This was just the beginning of the feud with idubbbz.

January 21st, 2017:
San Francisco, CA. Tana Mongeau's San Francisco show starts with 10 groups of people with VIP Meet & Greet tickets, and the last group holds a surprise guest. Idubbbz, clad with pink Tana Mongeau merch, gets in position with Tana for a photo. Idubbbz's girlfriend, raihnbowkidz, was recording everything with a DSLR camera. Rather than saying "Say Cheese!", idubbbz blurts out "say" followed by the n-word. Tana runs off and later comes back to see that idubbbz was kicked out.

Tana mentions racism and the incident later in her live show in this video:

She posts these two tweets later that night, and says:

January 24th, 2017:
Tana makes a video about the situation, titled "The N Word". I suggest you watch the video so nothing is missed out on, but here are a few main & notable points from the video:

-She says nothing about idubbbz in the video, just explains what happened with the meet and greet and how it's a racist word.
-Says that you are objectively racist if you use the n-word

Later that day, Tana posts a series of snapchats and explains the situation with the December incident about tweeting idubbbz to kill himself, and that fans actually found out that idubbbz was the perpetrator of the incident. Tana apparently didn't know that idubbbz was the suspect of the situation. I suggest you watch the video

January 25th, 2017:
The day goes on as normal, and Tana already has other drama going on with her assistant and with members of her collab channel, so YouNow streams are directed toward those situations. The drama spreads around, and not much happens between the two.

January 26, 2017:
At 2:14 AM EST, Idubbbz tweets only two statments about the situation:

What's all the hubbub about?

First thing in the morning, Tana does a YouNow stream, crying and visibly upset. Notable statements:

>"This is just 1% of what's going to happen after he makes this video about me … I don't know what I did to this human being for him to want millions of people and to bully me and ruin my career and all I have"

>"I know crying on YouNow is ridiculous but I don't know what to do"

>"I created this Youtube channel to do nothing more than create a place for people to feel good about themselves and to be happy"

>"He says all this fucked up shit all the time and nobody says anything about it, how can someone parade around on the internet making videos about that?"

>-"When I first tweeted him, I didn't know that he was going to buy a ticket to my meet and greet, come to my meet and greet, try to get me to say the N word, scare the fucking shit out of me, and if doing that wasn't enough, he's going to make a video about me that gets millions and millions of views and makes me look like a terrible person"

>"Why is idubbbz able to say 'well she said the n word when she was 13 so i'm going to make a video everyone go hate on her' and all of his subscribers will go hate me for that, but what about him just saying the n word in every video?"

[Later today she made another series of snapchats about the situation
