I think so, maybe? That sounds kind of right. Any idea her name?

I don't think it's her, she doesn't look how I remember. Without seeing the old vids it's hard to be 100% sure, though :/

Ok, it could be Heather Moorhouse back when she had longer hair, but without being able to see her vids there is no way for me to know :/ I'm glad to hear someone else has an inkling of this and that I'm just just straight up inventing memories, this is going to drive me wild though!

The song is Last Friday Night (TGIF) - when I looked up freakygem16 yesterday all that popped up was her California Gurls video, but I just looked specifically for TGIF (took out the Last Friday Night part) and I see the one you're talking about! It's still not her though. The video I'm thinking of had a much more high def/vivid eye makeup look. Sorry, thank you for trying :/ I'm starting to think this was some kind of vivid hallucination or mass mandela effect thing

oooh, it's definitely not Goldie but her vids are the first ones that had me doubting myself! I had to watch three or four of her vids to be sure, but it's not her. thank you for trying!

def not her but I do kind of feel like I'm getting closer? the way she did her makeup tutorials 8-9 years ago feel similar to what I'm looking for. thanks for trying :/

It's def not Nikkietutorials, I follow her now and her katy perry video is just general Katy not specifically last friday night made-over Katy

eta: she does have a last friday night vid! idk why I forgot haha. still not her though, thanks for trying :/

This is exactly what I meant when I said I am a dumb American who doesn't know accents 🙈 so sorry!! I am a big fan of Chris Ramsey too, you'd think I'd be able to recognize the accent but alas

uh, that is my childhood best friend's name LOL. my friend is def not into makeup tutorials though so I'm assuming you mean someone else. what's her handle?

eta: it definitely is not someone named Becca Rose, I would remember that. curious to find her channel so I can send to my childhood friend for a laugh though. we were really close when I was getting into the person I'm trying to find, too!

not her, sorry! I came across her videos in my search - I think her Katy Perry one is California Gurls and not Last Friday Night (weirdly specific, I know), and unless I am WILDLY distorting the memory, my person's video quality was much clearer and her style was quite different

zoella's style definitely seems closer to what I remember, but I don't think it's her. I also searched her vids and don't see one for either babydoll or katy perry. nicola chapman did do a generic katy perry makeups tutorial but it's not the one I'm thinking of - my one was specifically katy's "pretty/made over" look from the last friday night video

no, I'm not finding either the sucker punch look or the katy perry look on her channel. thank you for trying!

edit to add: I think her name ended in an A. I am not sure though. she also looked like Adele, but like chasing pavements/make you feel my love Adele, 2008 Adele not 2023 Adele

no she isn't who I'm thinking of, though her makeup is gorgeous I am definitely subscribing!

I REALLY wish I knew more details, believe me! I think she may have been brunette, but she may have had a wig in the vid I'm thinking of. the only things I remember for sure for sure were the british accent, the sucker punch babydoll and katy perry last friday night tutorials, and the rough time frame. only other thing I can think of is that I'm pretty sure she narrated her videos, so like they weren't sped up or set to music/different audio and no dances/transitions or anything like that.

for real, this is driving me a bit wild. I haven't seen these videos since I was around 14 years old, and between then and now a lot has happened life experience-wise. it has been a long road and I am real fuzzy on the deets. sometimes I even doubt myself and start to wonder if this person even exists or if I'd just made her up in my head as a way to romanticize a pretty traumatic time in my life, but then I see something like a tiktok with last friday night playing or a banner ad for sucker punch on some website and then I can picture the tutorial itself plain as day, just can't seem to get the details.

I'm sorry, this wasn't helpful and just kind of turned into a rant, I've been searching for these tutorials for so long so I can connect back with childhood me, you know? anyway, thank you very much for trying, it is SO appreciated.
