New MJ Kelley Activity

[rockyjm]

On Facebook, Shawn advertised a video made by MJ's wife of her and MJ doing some sort of donut challenge. Shawn posted a positive comment on the video and Jayla responded thanking him.

Also on Jayla's channel is another video where she describes herself as a "transgender woman", so for those that doubted the legal document, there should be no doubt now.

Here's the link to the donut video with MJ:

[Voo Dude]

Holy Shit! Hopefully, this leads to more MJ videos, I really miss that guy. Honestly, I'm shocked by the transgender thing, I thought people were just trolling in the past, then I heard about the document that proved it, but never saw it for myself, but wow it is strange cos in one of the last Q and A vids MJ did in his channel, he said he could never be with a trans person or something along those lines. I wonder what it was like when she told MJ?

[ColossalAvenger]

Thanks for linking this. It's nice to see MJ back again and I also hope this will lead to more. Like I need to say yet again around here, I did always like MJ. Nice to see Shawn and co. interacting nicely again, even if just through comments.

[Chauncey's Open-Mindedness]

Thanks for the link. Wow. I remember heaps of people teasing on the video comments due to her voice, but I'm not sure how many people really expected this revelation. I have a feeling that Shawn and MJ's friendship may have been influenced by Jayla's gender identity. Not sure if it was Shawn not being accepting, or perhaps MJ didn't want this news to slip - maybe he was worried due to Shawn's web presence. IIRC Jayla did have a trans-party invitation on her Facebook so maybe Jayla is more open about it and MJ wanted to conceal the fact.

I do remember Shawn referring to Jayla as "Carlos", and MJ being pissed. This was before Jayla was ever on the blog so maybe Shawn didn't expect MJ and Jayla to end up together. 

It's so crazy that the internet figured this out. Shawn has a very small following on the grand scheme of things.

[Aussie Eighties]

Shawn actually mentioned MJ in his new shopping video, surprised at that.

no bad blood I guess anymore

[btshady]

 I have a feeling that Shawn and MJ's friendship may have been influenced by Jayla's gender identity.

Shawn may have had his suspicions, but it's possible that MJ didn't even tell him. I don't think MJ would feel comfortable disclosing that, especially since his friendship with Shawn was already strained. I believe MJ and Jayla started dating after Shawn moved to San Diego.

Jayla's gender was a non issue. I think Shawn was just angry because he felt that MJ chose Jayla over him. The initial plan was to have MJ move to California.

The only person who might have had a problem with it is MJ's mom. She was described as being old-fashioned... Shawn would make jokes about it from time to time: https://youtu.be/HGDKucF5j-k?t=145 Maybe MJ wanted to keep it a secret from her?

Also, I remember someone asking MJayla if they wanted children in a Q&A. Jayla said "I'm not getting pregnant any time soon." It's interesting that she mentioned "getting pregnant" when she simply could have said that she didn't want children. 

[Voo Dude]

It certainly would be an awkward thing to disclose, especially since MJ knows Shawn very well and knows how petty and spiteful Shawn can be if they get into an argument or if Shawn's jealousy is roused. As we see from the Split Parody.

Honestly, I think the reason why MJ may not have invited Shawn to the wedding and cut ties with Shawn is due to him making fun of the fact that she was trans. I completely get why MJ would turn his back on Shawn after that, it must have been difficult enough for MJ to process, but then to have trolls on the internet saying she was a man and Shawn going along with that by referring to his lover as "Carlos". So, I guess it is ultimately Shawn's fault the friendship ended, I can't believe Shawn had the audacity to act as the victim.

[ColossalAvenger]

At this point, I think that's a good theory as to what went on. I always thought, though it's not exactly a hard thing to think, that it was (seemingly) really odd that MJ would just up and not invite his supposed best friend to his own wedding. I've never been married, but I can imagine that's not something you just do, or do lightly. 

[btshady]

I think Shawn may have been alluding to it in this clip:

https://youtu.be/6hSzNr8qiT0?t=556

"You ended up getting married, but I thought you liked men? Wait! It all makes sense... I figured it out!"

[Voo Dude]

WTF why was my message deleted?

[Everlasting Chancey]

Good ear. Chauncey even walked off after he threw shade, like he dropped a witty bomb. Wow, there was true resentment.

[rockyjm]

Google flags it randomly, waits for me to approve it then when I do it doesn't show up anyway.

That's why I created a proboards forum as it allows for more control but nobody seems to use it.

[rockyjm]

Update: According to Shawn, if Jayla's channel reaches 1000 subscribers then MJ will create his own account and produce new content.

[ColossalAvenger]

Well I do hope that happens personally. I remember years back not long after Shawn's move first happened, MJ did start doing his own "solo" stuff on a channel he had. Like I remember him doing an around the town style video where a friend of his (who freakishly sounded a lot like Shawn actually) helped by recording it. But it could be fun/interesting if he did again.

I do wonder though. Anyone else feel like we missed something big? I mean, it's crazy that Shawn has seemingly gone from MJ being "the Unmentionable One" to the two seem to be getting along like the old days. I mean I'm glad they are, but I wonder what spurred all of it is all.

[Crazybeats]

I think the reason so many people enjoyed the Around The Town vlogs was because they look like any town in the world. They went to shops you knew, they talked about things you could relate to, I think the technology at the time, the video quality etc made it seem more old school than it really was. Fast forward 10 years and we have crystal clear HD video and unfortunately not very many of those shops left and really not many place to wander around and all of a sudden these Around The Town vlogs are a reminder of days gone by. I think the only HD era type thing similar was the closure of Blockbuster Videos. I just don't know if it would work today. I don't know the areas they live in. I don't know if theres the Mom and Pop stores and the independents and small and big shopping malls. I think they could do it again but I think the world has changed so much that it just wouldn't be the same but I would like to see it attempted.

I think maybe they both realized it was time to put that stuff behind them and move on or it could be Shawn is lonely and is on his own and it's the ace up his sleeve. Go back to what you know and who you know.

[Voo Dude]

Doesn't seem like they're actually talking. I asked in a video, if Shawn was talking to MJ more now, he replied to 90% of the other comments except mine.

[ColossalAvenger]

I just commented on his recent video relating to him and MJ. Curious to see if he responds, and how, now.

[Aussie Eighties]

Shawn used to call MJ in videos the un-namable one or unmentionable one.

since he wasn’t friends with him anymore, what has changed.

did he contact MJ or did MJ contact him?

are they friends again?

[Voo Dude]

Maybe neither contacted the other, Jayla probably posted the video and shared it on FaceBook, so Shawn commented on the video then start telling his viewers. Jayla wants to start a YouTube, so why not allow an established Youtuber plug her channel, she is using Shawn to grow her channel somewhat quicker. Shawn is probably lonely and desperate for that old companionship since his friendship with Brendan, Danny, Luna has pretty much died. MJ has moved on from Shawn. I'll believe they are actually talking to one another again if Shawn does a video where he calls MJ and they talk for an hour like before.

[Voo Dude]

WHAT? Jayla just posted a comment on her latest video, saying that she only met Shawn in person ONCE. Once? How could that even be true? I always imagined they'd been around each other countless times. 

[Voo Dude]

Oh, God, I'm such an idiot, I just remembered Shawn moved away during the time they met. Lol, I still can't believe they only met once.

[btshady]

Shawn wouldn't promote Jayla's channel if he didn't think he was getting in something return. My guess is he's attempting to arrange some type of collaboration with MJ in the near future. MJ and Jayla had a channel a few years ago (Kelley II Kelley) and Shawn wasn't too enthusiastic about it. I think he acknowledged MJ was making videos again in a comment, but that's as far as it went. Now he's plugging Jayla's channel and leaving positive comments on all of her videos. I also see comments from Shawn's mom (aka kimmykat) and she was critical of MJ even before the wedding. So I suppose something has changed between them. That doesn't necessarily mean they're good friends again. They haven't seen each other in 7 years. That's a LONG time and MJ has probably matured a lot since then. Shawn... well, we know how that turned out lol.

In a Q&A on MJ's old channel, MJ and Jayla mentioned that they were planning to move to California. If that did happen, I'd imagine things would have played out similarly with Shawn acting like a bitter ex. It's obvious that he doesn't like being a third wheel.

[ColossalAvenger]

> My guess is he's attempting to arrange some type of collaboration with MJ in the near future.

With how he responded to my comment I made reference to in my prior post, I can almost guarantee it. This was his response: 

Well you never know. Just keep watching the channel and see what happens.

At least the way I read it, it came off in a "I have a plan up my sleeve, but I just neither want to affirm or deny anything." 

[ColossalAvenger]

Clarification: I specifically asked if he would willing to do a collaboration of some sort with MJ since they seem to be on a lot better terms now and how I'm sure a lot of people would be happy to see it.

[Aussie Eighties]

if he reunited with MJ it would be his highest viewed video in a long time, people enjoyed them in videos before the move and fans would cream themselves for it!

[benjarides]

what kind of weirdo marries a tranny? that shit makes me sick

[benjarides]

although I don't side with Chauncey often, he was on the money here making fun of MJ for marrying a tranny.

[Aussie Eighties]

at least MJ could get someone... even if she is one

[btshady]

MJ has been on dates before he met Jayla.

Anyone remember Allie? She appeared in a couple of videos:

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=UxsExN282UE

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=l3eMHfUy3kE

She and MJ were dating for a while. I wonder if Shawn expressed jealousy back then. In the 2nd video, he says he's been friends with MJ for 11 years, while she's only been MJ's girlfriend for a year. Awkward.

[Voo Dude]

I remember her. Wasn't she engaged to MJ? or so they said. What's with him getting engaged weren't they like 21 at the time? I wonder if her name is even Allie around 4:30 Shawn calls her Laura. I would say Shawn was jealous but was more subdued about it, maybe he knew it wouldn't last and was just waiting for the inevitable end. 

[btshady]

Now that you mention it, I see a ring on his wedding finger. I think MJ was confused about his sexuality at the time. I remember he would get very defensive when people asked if he was gay and disabled comments on his channel because of the transgender rumor (which turned out to be true). This is purely conjecture, but I wouldn't be surprised if his engagement to this girl was an attempt to prove he's straight. It's bizarre watching them, though. They seem more like two people on an awkward first date than an engaged couple.

Do you think Shawn suspected MJ was gay or bisexual back in those days?

[Aussie Eighties]

Shawn used to call him queer in videos

[btshady]

Jayla mentioned that they're moving to California in her recent Q&A:

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0kk5tAKvbHI

So we may actually see a reunion. I guess this explains why Shawn has been so persistent in promoting her channel.

[Aussie Eighties]

it shall be interesting. cause Shawn does need someone to hang out with, not many people hang out with him these days. although I don’t think Shawn will want her to tag along.

[Voo Dude]

Yeah, of all the places they could have moved to, they go to California. It's very possible they could meet up, or Shawn will just keep teasing it saying "You never know." I'd love to see it. I imagine it will be very awkward tho, since they are both in very different places. MJ is married, has a new home, must have a decent job, reasonable social skills, whereas Shawn's social skills have declined, no job still lives at home. I hope it works out tho, I'd like to see Shawn come out of his shell and revert back to his old self where he had a personality.

[btshady]

Shawn's mom left this comment:

I loved hearing your answers and especially loved when you answered my questions....so cool !!!!! i love sushi too. We will have to go out for some when you get here...we have an excellent place that you will love !!!! Ghostbusters is a great movie, my favorite movie to watch over and over is Tootsie...always makes me laugh !!!!! Your makeup looks incredible, teach us !!!!! Safe travels....

[ColossalAvenger]

Yeah, it is interesting that they just happen to be moving to California. But one way or another, I do think it would be fun/interesting seeing them meeting up again. However it goes, it would be something to see. But I do hope positive things come from it too. Who knows, maybe all of it will do Shawn some good.

[Voo Dude]

Shawn's mam just posted a comment on new MJ video, calling out this page. How'd she find out?

[Crazybeats]

What did she say? I can't find the comment? I don't know how she would have found out?

[Voo Dude]

she must have deleted the comment, I can't remember it word for word, but it went something like "Well, that was interesting. I knew MJ's favourite food and hello to those of you who gossip about me in that google page you don't know me."

[Crazybeats]

Is this page searchable from Google? Why would she delete it?

[Voo Dude]

No, idea why she would delete it. But the comment is not there anymore. It's weird how the moment, I mentioned it here, it gets deleted from YT, Gina probably lurks on here, but doesn't post anything. i am curious how she found out. I remember not being able to find the page through google, I only found it cos I had the link saved to favourites.

[Aussie Eighties]

if she does know about this page, GOOD. maybe she’ll wake up see all the things wrong with Shawn and his personality. cause sometimes you gotta spell things out for people for them to finally get it.

so if your reading this, your son is a loser!

[btshady]

Are we sure it was really "Gina" and not some copycat account? Someone here might be screwing with us.

if she does know about this page, GOOD. maybe she’ll wake up see all the things wrong with Shawn and his personality. cause sometimes you gotta spell things out for people for them to finally get it. 

I think his parents know their son is a failure and blame themselves. "Frank Wheat" was Shawn's mom or dad (probably the latter), so it's not like they haven't heard the criticisms before.

[Voo Dude]

I didn't really check the account, I assumed it had to be her. Weird that she would delete the comment, though. Now, you have me thinking it was just a copy account lol. But it was worded very Gina-like 

[ColossalAvenger]

Yeah, it's possible. I don't know if the person still does it, but there was someone going around on "the Crew's channels posting comments. It looked like it was Brendan posting them. Had his image and channel name and everything. But if you clicked his name, it was someone else's channel entirely.

[Long.Live.Chauncey]

https://youtu.be/ymZIfwIaaro?t=5m16s

Timestamped; Jayla describes MJ's courtship. MJ didn't know when they first hooked up. Earlier in the video Jayla also shares stories about people noticing she is transgender.

[Manny]

Interesting tidbit - MJ gets very open about his sex life. Gotta respect the brutal honesty.

https://youtu.be/sPE77X0r5jo?t=9m36s

[Aussie Eighties]

as Owen Wilson would say....

WOW

[Dave]

Chauncey is probably thinking "why didn't he ever give me a BJ?"

I don't think Chauncey likes Jayla. He's only being nice to her because he wants to make videos with MJ again.

Jayla is MJ's best friend now. Chauncey is going to have a hard time dealing with that.

He's gotta be the center of attention. He's not going to like having Jayla tag along.

I think he secretly wants them to break up so he can have MJ all to himself.

[ColossalAvenger]

Wow, indeed lol

[A Life Less Ordi-Chauncey]

Fucking LOL. Chauncey out ere expecting blowies.

I do wonder if MJ broke up his friendship with Chauncey because of fear Jayla's gender reassignment would be spread on the internet. There were "tranny" remarks and gay slurs left on Chauncey's older videos which probably really hurt MJ. Also, Chauncey is a guy that finds the most common things "weird and kinda strange", I can imagine a Chauncey in his early 20s (fresh out of good ol' Maryland) being a little critical of such an unconventional relationship.

[benjarides]

can we stop giving these fucking weirdos attention. I come here to talk about the man Chauncey not these sick fucks.

[Aussie Eighties]

the look on Jayla’s face, wasn’t him to blurt that bit off info out.

Im surprised too. so hes saying hes noy gay but had to suck her pee pee to find out if he liked it enough to be considered gay?

[Aussie Eighties]

you think Shawn’s gonna plug MJ’s channel now, since what he said in this video?

[Chauncey's Lion Mane]

I guess MJ is trying to say that he isn't sexually attracted to dong, despite Jayla having one. He was drunk, I don't think he'd normally admit that. I expect the video to be taken down at some point.

Yep, Chauncey will still plug their channel. The video is a few weeks old and he has plugged it since. Chauncey is really pushing the channel, kinda feels like he's trying to make amends.

To follow Benjarides' advice and make this about Chauncey - I wonder if Chauncey expands his circle of friends once MJ moves to California. Who knows; maybe Chauncey's new found acceptance of gender fluidity will culminate in Chauncey dating one of MJ and Jayla's friends.

[Aussie Eighties]

he just uploaded a new Tuesday video and usually he leaves a link in description for their channel but the new shooping video its not in there.

[Chauncey's Determination]

Who knows, I guess we'll see. Chauncey has stated that his descriptions take 1 hour to make, so he might have just forgotten or couldn't be bothered.

Looking forward to the potential awkwardness if MJ and Chauncey making videos together. They have both changed a lot since they were inseparable.

[WJQB]

On Jayla’s q&a she says MJ grabbed her and kissed her for the first time right after she told him she had a penis.

[wayneval...@gmail.com]

@WJQB - if you haven't seen the below Q&A, then check it out. MJ talks more about their fairytale romance.

https://youtu.be/sPE77X0r5jo?t=9m36s

[btshady]

Jayla hasn't posted anything on YouTube, Facebook, Twitter, Instagram, etc. in almost two months: https://twitter.com/jayladesoto

[Voo Dude]

She probably knows her audience is only interested in Mj, plus her videos don't revolve around anything. For example, Shawn and Brendan's videos revolve around movies/DVDs. Jayla just jumped on YouTube with MJ in the hopes it would lead to their channel blowing up, but they have no actual ideas of what videos to make. She admitted to not being a movie buff, so that pretty much slashes the audience to an even smaller number.

[The Owl Space]

The thing is.....I don't think Jayla has thick enough skin to be a true "Vlogger" and like Voo Dude said people  are only really interested in MJ and the possibility of a reunion with Coolduder etc.  Jayla wants to be a You Tube celebrity but since she  is a "Transgender" she has to be willing to accept the fact certain people are going to give her a hard time because of that and we've seen that on the videos on her page already. 

Jayla is way too sensitive

How are you going to go forward if you allow the negativity get to you? People feed of that! does anyone remember what happened to Gabe? Gabe couldn't handle the consistent bullying about his sexuality and his living situation and he stopped vlogging save for the occasional appearance with Brendan. Jayla needs to make more videos with MJ and start doing things like reacting to movie trailers or heck even talk about her favorite films etc. Jayla may not be a movie buff however she certainly needs to fake it if she wants Coolduder/MJ viewers and yes fans. 

We'll see is she ever vlogs again......probably will.
