I truly can't stand people pressuring other nickelodeon child stars to speak up, like it's none of our business how they feel about the allegations. In the other hand, Josh Peck has always given me "I do what the people want" vibes. When fans wanted a reunion, he gave them a reunion and talked how he loved drake like a brother, when fans were against a reunion bc of drake's charges, he said they were NEVER friends and they would never be friends, and now he is doing this. He is just such an odd person lol
@@smilealwaysnatasha3423 he had her on his podcast and when she asked him to not post it because she wasn't comfortable with it, he got mad at her and texted her until she blocked him because he was basically harassing her, he then went on a podcast and claimed she "owed him", and when asked about Dan he said, " he was just a tough boss" in a weird tone to basically discredit what she and other actors claimed to go through on set
The way he invalidated Jennette’s traumatic experience was fucked up.. that definitely made me realize why Josh never seemed to speak up about production and Dan Schneider. He was weirdly buddy buddy with him it seems…
The Tea is that Josh hated being the "fat one" the butt of the joke on Drake and Josh and he took that out on Drake after his "glow up" he never recovered from that hurt.
Number one but she said was not OK. It’s not the time to be calling him ugly not the time he is not ugly. He’s wonderful and I don’t know why you’re laughing about it. It’s not funny it’s disgusting.
@@Morin-hb4vj and I’m sorry for defending a sexual assault victim so you don’t know what Jake feeling am doing really really hard for him to come out and tell his story after years later he I hope you’re ashamed of yourself goodbye don’t ever ever come on my comment ever again🙄❤️
the amount of comments hes getting pressuring him to talk about the issue is ridiculous. hes not obligated to speak on anything and he doesnt owe you anything, its so clear so many people are using this as entertainment when real life people were hurt. if he wants to speak on it, he should be able to, and if he doesnt want to, he should also be allowed to stay silent and move on with his life
@@HanaMarshmallows It's Not really much "Evil" More of Resentment. Growing up Josh was ALWAYS seen and portrayed as the dweeby fat kid. He tried changing his image when he became an adult thinking that it would help. He was still mostly portrayed as a spaz . Meanwhile throughout his whole career Drake Bell was treated as the cool guy with his band and tons of fans.
@@SS-tg8lf exactly but Josh condemning Drake now even though Drake being in the spotlight is because of something so horrific that happened to him as a child with no sympathy isn't just resentment it's evil.
I think the main part of this that made me think like wow josh isn't a good person is that, Knowing and hearing Drake tell his trauma from when they were friends and him immediately being like oh i don't even know you anymore?? Like what?? And if course he reached out because he knew he was dead ass wrong and he still never directly addressed the things he said regarding Drake's experience. It was never about Josh's experience on Nickelodeon and i think Drake getting the limelight again really triggered him (even knowing that it wasn't for anything good now and even back then).
Josh is definitely a jealous ass hater. Like damn Drake could have headlined as being in, God forbid, a coma and Josh would take that opportunity to drag Drake's name through the mud because Drake was getting attention. He can't even put his feelings aside to just check in on Drake after the documentary dropped. If one of my old friends came out about being abused, I'd give them my sympathy and an ear if they needed someone to talk to. You don't have to be friends to be a good person.
@@greenprimalranger exactly my point! Even if they weren't as close as they used to be to openly dismiss someone about something as severe as being SA'd as a child and having no art the least sympathy for his situation just gives me jealous vibes. But there is a video Drake and Josh did together before the documentary commentating on their "first times" and even though Drake looked very uncomfortable Josh doesn't stop the video he just keeps questioning him all in the name of "entertainment". Personally I see a lot of Dan's teachings in Josh and the way he behaves.
@ainthatchachii I mean, Josh is the worst kind of actor; someone who would slit your throat to get the role he wants and make it seem like he's the victim. Happy to see people are not letting him off the hook so easily, but you can tell he's a deviant because he was real quick to change his tune "after a few days" when he got all that backlash from his tiktok. He either did some nefarious stuff for Schneider or sold other actors up the river to Schneider to save himself.
@@greenprimalranger literally I don't think anyone of sound mind would let Josh of the hook for the shit he said. He's exactly the type of actor that Nickelodeon was trying to breed someone who's willing to do anything for fame and because he was never the target of abuse he was instead learning from these abusers. He's a direct product of Dan Schneiders weird ass content and his off putting "humor".
But what exactly did people expect Josh to say frfr? he’s openly expressed they aren’t friends, I think it’d be fake asf to reach out now that he’s revealed a traumatic experience he had and is having a lot of interaction, that TikTok was weird asf fs but wouldn’t people also just call him fake and say he was trying to get clout/attention is Josh randomly started being “nice”. The attention should be on Drake and others who went through similar experiences, not this old ass “drama”.
I agree. I don't necessarily agree with anything he's done but I will agree, I don't understand how ppl confuse professional relationships. If I openly tell you me and that person isn't close, I wouldn't care what the public would have to say how I should respond to something.
After I got older I NEVER liked Josh…. Even before everything he just rubbed me the wrong way but I couldn’t put my finger on why. Just seems so disingenuous. 🙄
@@starxvssv he's not. If you watched the court case they mention this. Also she tried to blackmail his wife at the time. He blocked her after he found out her age.
@drew_lg2132 He pursued her knowing her age, and even mentioned her age in the texts. So, no. That's a blatant lie. He met her, she lied about her age. He learned her real age and made distance, they met again and he started to pursue a private relationship with her. Drake is not innocent at all, he knew what he was doing and knew her age, as well as knew he could get in trouble. He never asked her for proof of her age, or anything when they were in person either. He can be a victim of Dan and sti be a predator of others and lying about that doesn't do anything for anyone. Most commonly predators were prior victims and he fits that narrative as well.
@@whatzittooyah which is already inappropriate, and after that he still sent her nudes and asked for them. So there's no justification. He's a predator, who is trying to now use Dan to help recover his name. When in reality, Dan and Drake are both just predators.
It’s weird that people are trying to pressure former nick stars to say something. If they wanna say something publicly they will but they don’t have to.
6 OBJECTIVE TAKES THAT NO ONE IS CONSIDERING FOR SOME REASON. 1) I'm almost certain that the tiktok Josh posted had NOTHING to do with the Drake situation. Drake is not relevant in Josh's day to day life and this was a random tiktok. Tiktok detectives want to tie it into the Drake situation and make Josh look crazy. 2) Josh spoke to Drake in private. Since the internet is a bunch of BRATS and babies that feel like Josh has to speak out every time something happens to Drake, he then made a PUBLIC video addressing the situation. Now people are complaining about him only making a video because he was being harassed into doing so. If I was Josh I'd be like "CAN YOU MFs SHUTUP!!! I ADDRESSED IT PUBLICLY WTF DO YOU WANT FROM ME!?" He's damned if he does or doesn't, smh. 3) Josh is one of those people where if you don't babysit the friendship with semi-regular phone calls and meetups, he doesn't consider you a friend, because he likely has a rich social life with very present friends. That's fine some people are like that. 4) Josh was friends with David Dobrik and did some videos with him, so f*cking what? David made a few mistakes but he wasn't a terrible person. And being associated to someone who made those mistakes DOES NOT reflect on Josh, they weren't "besties" they made videos together and hung out on occasion. 5) Friendships dissolve THIS IS NOT A TV SHOW. Josh and Drake didn't keep up, to Josh the friendship is dead. To Drake he might think once a friend always a friend. I haven't spoken to some people I consider friends in YEARS, they might not give af about me anymore. That doesn't make them a bad person, I didn't keep up. Why would Josh invite a COWORKER to his wedding that hasn't called him in a decade? Answer that. 6) Dan Schneider and Josh were cool, that also should not reflect on Josh. Outside of the allegations Dan seemed like a really fun and positive guy. You don't know about someone's dark perverted side until you know. Now Josh knows and he spoke to Drake. Dan was invited to the wedding because he was tight with Josh. Drake was not because he hadn't spoken to Josh in a decade. Makes sense to me. Y'all are here in 2024 WAGGING your fingers, but Drake was in the wrong for attacking Josh on the wedding night.
@@pendafen7405 Lol it's true. My ex's friend literally called her to end their friendship because she didn't call her in a good few months. That is ABSOLUTELY ridiculous to me. My ex just moved to another state and was taking care of her 3 year old. Life happens, friends can check up every now and then and occasionally link up, but ending a friendship because y'all don't hang out and talk every other day like when you were 20, that's dumb. People grow up, get married, have kids, we're not going to talk on a daily, weekly, or even monthly basis anymore.
I really hate that people pressured Josh a lot because people will speak on topics when they are ready. I know that the tiktok was distasteful but I don't think it was aimed at anyone. I saw people are trying to pressure Amanda Bynes to speak out and those people can go to hell for that. That woman is still not mentally stable enough to be involved in anything entertainment wise. The last I heard of her was that in March of 2023, she flagged down a car in LA, without any clothes on, coming down from a psychotic episode. Police put her on a psychiatric hold after that. If you think that she needs to speak out after any of that, you need to get off the internet a bit and learn some new morals.
Just to give perspective, that video was not about Drake. Josh reached out to Drake before that video about the Dan Schneider situation privately. The headlines made it about Drake due to it being poorly timed. Do not always trust the headlines, people.
Yea yall bugging. Am i trippin? How is he weird for not caring more? He hasn’t spoken to drake in a decade. He already reached out to drake about the docuseries to show emotional support and drake confirmed that. Him saying drake and jeanette were lying is ignorant ( cuz you dont know what everyone’s experienced) but its typical for people to deny things they haven’t seen. That response was probably before quiet on the set cuz if he didnt believe it, he wouldn’t have reached out so maybe that was an eye opener.
The RU-vidr isn’t mentioning how the situation with Drake happened before “Drake & Josh” even started so Josh mostly didn’t know during that time but i do agree with him being silent but who knows… he could’ve texted him privately
drake did not have a relationship with a minor why is this dude lyin. he texted her and it was proven in court that she lied about a bunch of stuff, but he still pled guilty because he TEXTED her and she was a minor, that's it. they never hung out or anything. ppl bringing that up immediately after he talks about being put under anesthesia and r worded is weird af. its not even close to comparable. (don't take this as me saying its ok, but it is not comparable)
Yes he did I watched that entire case it's on RU-vid on court TV a lot was he said she said which doesn't me she told the truth but doesn'tmean she lied either it just couldn't be proven. One thing that was was proven in my perception was whenshe was describing how he lingered her in the back of her aunts van. He didn't have a look of disgust or even denial he started laughing and smiling that's how I knew he did it. Secondly for him to tell a bond have lie like he didn't know her age like come in brio you know your audience ain't no grown women going to see no damn drake bell
@@daibu05”no grown women going to see no Drake bell”…? 1. Jesus Christ that was hard to read 2. Uh Drake and Josh is how old of a show? It may be for teens but I’m pretty sure it’s pretty old.
@@daibu05 he was flirting with her while she was a minor but didn't know her age and blocked her after finding out. This was stated in the court video. She ended up trying to blackmail his wife and went to his concert after being blocked and met him at a meet and greet but he did not know this girl he took photos with, was the one he blocked. Even her own friend gave a statement saying she was telling lies
Camera, laptop or desktop, and OBS. That’s usually what it is. For more info on OBS if you don’t know, just search it up, it’s simple but I don’t wanna explain it.
It's weird to me that fans were so fixated on Josh checking in on Drake. It's like they can't cope with the fact that they aren't friends in real life like they were in the show. If I no longer f--- with someone, I'm not checking up on them, no matter what they have going on. And that's not out of hate, it's apathy, because I don't care.
I was going to agree with you until the last part, uh wtf? If I knew I had a coworker have something trauamtizing happen to them at a young age DURING my time with them I would definitely care…
@@xSKY23 My mom is an empath and would definitely agree with you. I've seen it play out in real-time and the gesture go unappreciated. But she needed to reach out to satisfy her conscience. To clarify, I'm not sure about the extent of Drake and Josh's issues, but I'm only talking about relationships I consider irreconcilable. Those that were a constant source of drama or caused me or my loved ones to be significantly wronged. Right now, I don't actually have anyone that fits the description. I used to, but they died.
Hi dee, since we are on this topic I really Recommend reacting to sloans video About Amanda Bynes it’s horrible what they did to her as a child she deserves justice 😢😢
Josh has never been friends with Drake so i dont know why yall expect him to support Drake in any way.🤷🏽♀️ Also he might still be mad after Drake went in a whole rant about not going to the wedding. I wouldn't talk about him either.
Right Josh's response was intense but we don't fully know his experiences. It's got to be a lot to take in process when knowing someone a certain way and then finding out the dark sides and how many people they have harmed. People do keep pushing Josh and Drake as friends when it's possible they were friends at a period of time and it came to an end, it happens.
Yes and I completely get where you're coming from. But that just means Josh needs process that at his own pace and he DID NOT have to get online and PUBLICLY dismiss his old friend who was in such close proximity to Josh at the time of his abuse. Like as a grown ass man it's not just about Josh not being friends with Drake it's the way his comments and videos about him and Drake not being friends seems calculated.
@@ainthatchachii I agree that the way Josh came on live wasn't appropriate the same with Ned's classless casts. It's off to act like he doesn't know Drake.
@@greenprimalranger I hope she finds peace through all that's happening. I wasn't aware it's mess up to take hush money and try to look like supporting survivors.
@LisaFoodieTV the hush money was for Josh to be a Schneider sympathizer. Since I'm guessing Schneider knew about the documentary ahead of time and wanted to do some damage control.
Bruh what is wrong with the internet? Ppl are soo uninformed, they never liked each other even since they were younger. Josh doesn’t have to speak up about something someone else went through, whether they worked together or not. He’s not obligated to anyone to do that
Very true, but that whole TikTok was so unwarranted since Drake told his story and he just had to say that. No one told you to say some weird ish like that directly to Drake, Josh.
@@ExtreemDreemer Josh didn’t directly make that video about Drake, it was meant as a common joke. Ik bc I saw the original video on my fyp, it’s just that the person making the video pushed a narrative to make it seem like he said talking about drake
Josh is a liar Probably still oddly jealous of drake because he was never the more popular attractive character just like Dee said he was portrayed. There’s proof that he spoke to him within those years, so all of this “he hasn’t spoke to him in years is straight bhllshit” Plus he never approached Drake and told him to apologize… what a weird pathological liar
Josh is so childish, it’s crazy how the child lover is actually more mature. Drake is terrible for what he’s done but hurt people hurt me. It doesn’t excuse the disgusting acts but understand what caused it.
The whole wedding situation I get that part and he was right to confront him about that however keep bringing it ups and then make a cringey ass til tok and then talking about him while all this exposure is happening yeah Josh and those Ned A holes have issues
You should see the interview where drake talks about a drake and Josh reboot were Josh made a script were drake is a failed musician he has no money he does a gig for a Mexican drug lord and some other stuff drake says he doesn’t want to depict his new fan base that way.
I think Drake’s confidence on Drake & Josh is what made a lot of people think he was cute back then. I never thought he cute when I was kid watching the show, but his lines and his delivery made him stood out in an attractive way. But none of that is important right now. I hope Drake finds healing and Josh finds God. Josh is acting like a shady person who was either treated horribly by other kid actors and sees this as their karma OR he has some shady business he doesn’t want out. His response didn’t come off normal or necessary
It might’ve also been him playing a guitar and being a decent singer, my friend while in high school once told me that a guy who’s a good singer makes him 10x more attractive.
I'm looking at this in a whole different light. Because i drake himself a pedo in my opinion maybe Josh believes the same and didn't associate himself with that guy. But if he talked to the man behind scenes afar do he need to talk publicly for? To make the general public feel better? Yall weren't the ones getting touched he talked with the one that mattered. Lastly if i dont fwy i won't speak on you good bad or indifferent we ain't cool so if decided to mind his business that's his prerogative
Hey Dee Please react to "MOST EMOTIONAL SOLDIERS COMING HOME COMPILATION" by Creative. Theres so much discouraging stuff going on, it might be nice to see something positive.
If Drake wasn't abused, and Josh remained friends with him, random fing people would accuse him of possibly being a child predator too. He's not friends with him, hasn't seen him in years, and now all of the sympathy comes out for Drake so Josh is weird for not being vocal online about it?? You can't appease the fucking peanut gallery online. They don't even want Josh to be sympathetic to be sympathetic. They just want to see him be because this is still all for everyone else's entertainment.
I heard that the TikTok wasn’t directed to Drake but it was just a coincidence. But hey, that could be a cover up? CJosh needs to get over his anger and just support his old friend in his time of healing. Drake was pretty emotional talking about Josh. So, you can tell he was hurt with seeing Josh get attacked. We can’t force friend of victims to wanna speak on this stuff. It’s sensitive information. Drake didn’t tell anyone so who knows how Josh comprehended the news? 🤷🏽♀️
Wait I thought Drake was in jail, for predatory behavior on a minor? Was he released, or was the documentary filmed prior? *Nvm they mentioned it in the video*
@@maskedlegend4660 I thought they confirmed he was messaging explicit photos or suggestive text to a minor though? I just looked it up, he didn’t go to jail, he was sentenced to two years of probation.
Drake had a asexual relationship with a minor. He’s a grown ass man who’s been to therapy for his abuse, so he definitely would know what that feeling would feel like if an adult was to take advantage of a younger person. Yet everyone is sad for him. Huh?!? Make it make sense!
Drake has plenty of issues that shouldn’t be ignored, I feel a lot of empathy because of his dad and how disgusting the work environment was on set but that doesn’t excuse his atrocious actions as an adult. Because of how sensationalized the documentary/scandal is, Drake’s probably gonna get the Gypsy Rose treatment where everyone is gonna be overly supportive without knowing much about the situation and then turn on him for capitalizing on it.
@@parkerisles7256 thanks for taking your time to reply because this is exactly what going to happen. But I’m glad ppl like you are self aware about the situation.
Josh was jealous of Drake. He talks about how Drake was the pretty boy who got all the girls when they were younger. Little did he know What Drake was really getting Josh wanted no parts of
They were fictional characters. It’s like expecting your co-worker from 20 years ago to invite you to their wedding. Josh has no obligation to talk about anything publicly. I don’t even see how people have the need and audacity to tell folks what to do.
I know that there are plenty of deranged people who want celebrities (even minor celebrities like Josh) to comment/give platitudes about obviously horrendous events, but I wish that celebrities also knew when to shut up and ignore them if they don’t have anything concrete to say instead of making videos mocking them. It’s in incredibly poor taste of Josh to make this video, other celebrities like Melissa Joan Hart (Clarissa Explains It All/Sabrina The Teenage Witch), Kenan Thompson, Ryder Strong (Boy Meets World, wrote a character letter for Brian Peck’s trial) have handled the situation 100% more gracefully. Josh already looks terrible because of what he did to Jennette McCurdy during her book release and his affiliation with the Vlog Squad whom have their own sexual misconduct/assault issues; he’s such a nasty person.
I feel like Josh has resentment towards Drake, considering Josh was always in Drake's shadow. Without Drake, there wasn’t Josh, and I think Josh has held a grudge against Drake for that, which could have been the reason why Josh lost weight in hopes of being more of the main character, but nobody ever really cared. Then, once Josh’s career started taking off with David Dobrik, he just formed a huge ego and wanted to put drake down in sort of a power move over him and now that drake is starting to become the main talk again and in the spotlight Josh is just pissed about it 🤷🏾♂️
Two things I'm not the biggest fan of when it comes to this video is a she's making this video what's the majority of this video leading up to just the idea that he didn't do anything for Drake. But then at the tail button of the video drink himself says he has reached out. But then he frames it like it was nothing major at the end of the day. And I know on this channel we have talked about this before there is no reason to think that some of your favorite celebrities and influencers are friends with you. And we literally get on other celebrities for doing good things and documenting the fact they're doing good things. So I feel like all this hate he's getting is very dumb
People are dramatic asf I don’t think Josh handled the situation poorly in my opinion. He made a mistake with the one video but he did reach out after processing everything and gave his own response. People saying he should reached out immediately and came to drakes defense right away blah blah blah . He did not need to make a public statement he reached out in private that’s what really counts. Just cause you all want validation doesn’t mean he needs to like that makes no sense to me .
That is not true the whole court case is on RU-vid but just because it is true does not take away from the months of abuse he suffered as a child. Csa has so much more duality to it than simply "he was touched" or "she was lying". He was not tricked and he took accountability for his actions but his abuser also needs to be held accountable too.
Honestly.. I don't see the issue. Drake went through terrible experiences as a child but is in fact a terrible person who has also abused at least one child himself. On top of that he clearly has contributed to a years-long falling out between them. I'm sorry but I'm not making a personal DM (in influencer world it'd be a public statement) to someone who I don't talk to or respect, and particularly dislike, and have had major issues with, who I've learned had something bad happen to them like a decade+ prior. I'd wish we lived in a world where they didn't experience that and children didn't face any form of abuse. But it really makes no sense if you put yourself in these shoes and realize actors are the same as you (That all said I think Josh is annoying and cringe - That one tiktok made me actually grit my teeth)
@Lilac-mq7bg bro unironically typed out "nobody asked for your opinion" and proceeds to type out their wrong opinion to me. I mean it's fine because this is a comment section of a video that 100% warrants viewers opinions. So yeah for sure give me your opinion. That said, I know you don't realize this and maybe are incapable of realizing this, but: you don't know these people or their relationships. We only know that Drake is predator who was also preyed on. And that Josh still doesn't like him for their previous experiences together and *PROBABLY BECAUSE HE'S A PREDATOR* and he's valid for feeling that way and does not owe him anything.
@Lilac-mq7bg Also I like how you tried to paint me as a Josh stan when 80% of what I said is what I would /personally/ do in this exact hypothetical situation and gave no details about Josh or his relationship with Drake. No offense but you're clownish :(
Optical illusion. They're very light in contrast to his hair & complexion, plus downturned which makes them look feminine or 'siren' like. They're a mismatch with the rest of his looks which has a disturbing effect on the brain.
