YMMV / Miranda Sings

Go To

  • Character Perception Evolution: Miranda started as one of YouTube's premiere creators and was a recognizable, unique, and popular comedy character with a relatable premise (lampooning egotistical amateurs on the fledgling platform). She had a lot of positive publicity as well, with most other popular YouTube creators at the time making collaborations with her, in addition to getting a book, live shows, some mainstream appearances, and a Netflix series. Over time, after Miranda lost the position of one of the platform's most prominent faces and her portrayer Colleen Ballinger became the subject of a second wave of allegations of inappropriate behavior, the Miranda character has been reevaluated as a cruel caricature of people Ballinger disdained, including having alleged ableist elements, and the Miranda persona being a sheltered character subjected to mature situations has since been widely condemned as a source of disturbing sexual and dark content that mocked young victims of abuse and was very inappropriate for the child audience Miranda catered to and interacted with.
  • Growing the Beard: Or rather, Smearing the Lipstick; Miranda really started to put all her act together by the time of her firsts dancing videos, never looked back and the red area started to expand beyond the lips more every time.
  • Harsher in Hindsight: The jokes about sexual abuse becomes far darker when paired with the grooming allegations made against Ballinger in the 2020s.
