PSA: I almost believed that 6 minute apology from a singer last week until I watched it at 0.5x speed
Last week I was going to write a whole post defending this singer's apology video, but my friend Dana told me to slow it down to half speed in the YouTube settings before I picked a side. At normal speed she cried around the 2 minute mark and I felt bad for her, but at 0.5x you can see her eyes dart to a spot off camera right before each tear, like she's waiting for a cue. I picked the slow watch over the quick one and it took me 12 minutes instead of 6, which felt dumb at the time. Now I do it for every apology video before I say a word about it. Does anyone else watch these slowed down, or is that just me being paranoid?
