Trisha Paytas Axes Podcast With Colleen Ballinger After 3 Episodes: ‘I’m Embarrassed To Be Associated With Her’

Controversy surrounding “Miranda Sings” YouTuber Colleen Ballinger continues to grow, and now her podcasting partner and longtime friend is cutting ties with her.

Ballinger has been engulfed in scandal since allegations surfaced that she “groomed” a young fan, with claims that she’d “formed an inappropriate personal friendship with him while he was between the ages of 13 and 16.” More recently, further accusations surfaced, claiming that Ballinger shared nude photos of fellow YouTuber Trisha Paytas, taken from the latter’s OnlyFans.

Johnny Silvestri recently took to Twitter to reveal that she was among several people to whom Ballinger would send videos and photos taken from behind Paytas’ paywalled site, encouraging them to host “viewing parties for Trisha’s porn.” Making the situation even more awkward is the fact that Paytas and Ballinger have been longtime friends, and recently partnered on a new podcast, launched in May, titled “Oversharing with Colleen and Trish”.

The pair stopped producing new episodes last month, only after three had been produced. Paytas subsequently posted a video on YouTube to address the allegations. READ MORE: Colleen Ballinger’s Ex-Husband, ‘Haters Back Off!’ Writer Share Further Allegations “I do not condone it.
