A sea of indignation is raging online over the drowning of the new YouTube project Hype Camp, where popular bloggers recruit the younger generation of video makers into their teams.
Bloggers came to the defense of offended children
The scandalous reality episode Hype Camp currently has 114 thousand dislikes versus 9 thousand likes. And all because it’s difficult to call the show anything other than beating up babies.
The essence of the project is that three top Russian bloggers - Katya Klap, Mariana Ro and Yang Guo– recruit promising young people into their teams who could become their successors. Then, for three months, the teams live and learn the craft of video blogging in a country mansion under the auspices of their mentors. Qualifying rounds for the show took place in several cities of Russia, and the first episode was dedicated to casting in Moscow.
The jury included not only mentors, but also two invited YouTubers - Lizzka (Lisa Nered) And Danya Komkov. It was 20-year-old Komkov who became the main object of hatred from the audience, because he actively played the role of a “bad cop” - the guy did not stand on ceremony with teenagers, interrupted them and infuriated them in every possible way. As a result, 14-year-old children who dreamed of becoming bloggers left the stage crying and humiliated. According to the Internet community, the guy who behaved most impudently was the one who has the least number of subscribers among those who sat on the jury.
One of the contestants, unable to withstand the pressure from the judges, burst into tears right on stage. The audience was also outraged by the way they interacted with the 15-year-old Victoria Korobkova, which clearly could have made it into the project, but was sent home with the wording “too much show-off.” Victoria participated in the project on Channel One and even sang then with Dima Bilan. The teenager sang Maryana’s song, behaved confidently, but failed to cope with the task from Komkov - to show a funny improvised stand-up without any preparation.
After the first release, an avalanche of criticism hit Hype Camp. The project was torn to smithereens by many famous bloggers. Among which was Dmitry Larin.
“Who are all these people who don’t even know how to joke on camera? Look at their blogs - these are banal life stylers (people who make videos about their lives. - Ed.), who never had a sense of humor. There were absolutely wild, bilious things from Komkosaurus that brought children to tears. Yes, perhaps he had such a role - an angry critic and skeptic. But naturally they will be stupid, why make them cry? – Dmitry Larin is indignant.
Nikolai Sobolev was also bombed. The famous blogger attacked Komkov with righteous anger.
“I have a feeling that all this is justified by the janitor syndrome. These "blaggers" felt their importance - they were seated on the jury. It feels like they are simply asserting themselves at the expense of the children. Moreover, note that the one who crows the most is the one who is least of all,” summarizes Nikolai Sobolev.
Katya Klap also received her share of hatred, who was accused of remaining silent when children were humiliated before her eyes. At the same time, Katya is the oldest member of the jury, the girl is 24 years old.
After the first release, Daniil Komkov posted news on Twitter that the project had been closed. “There will be no #HypeCamp today. The customers closed the project due to a large amount of hate. It’s a pity,” the blogger wrote.However, on Monday, September 25, came out the second part of the casting in Moscow.
Each has its own mentor. This
“Hype Camp” is a new reality show about video bloggers who, over the course of seven weeks, will compete for the title of the first YouTube star and the main prize - one million rubles. Only 15 participants passed the casting, who were divided into three teams.
Each has its own mentor. This is , and . The qualifying rounds took place in several large cities of the Russian Federation, but the first issue was dedicated to the capital. Among the judges, in addition to the mentors, were Lisa Nered and Danya Komkov.
Even in the initial stages, the show had many negative reviews. Mainly thanks to one of the jury members - Daniil Komkov. A young, but already quite popular blogger, behaved very arrogantly and could afford to drive small children into hysterics. Although among his colleagues, he has the smallest fan club. Since you only had to be six years old to participate in the program, quite a few children were affected. The guys received strange tasks that were not part of the mandatory program.
One of the participants could not hold back her tears right on stage. The girl previously participated in the show “The Voice” and even sang with Dima Bilan. The bloggers thought that the young star had too much show-off and simply drove the poor thing into hysterics. Although subscribers believed that she was the one worthy to be a participant in the project.
Those who are lucky enough to be included in the team will go to live in a shared house with excellent conditions, where they will learn a craft seven days a week. Now this topic is quite popular not only in Russia, but throughout the world. The format of the show is new, young people thought that it would be quite interesting to look at the life of the heroes under lock and key and their new achievements.
They did watch the show, but not for long. After the first broadcasts, the program was torn to smithereens. Well-known bloggers have also joined the public. The anger fell mainly on Komkov, but Katya Klap was not left unattended, because she was the oldest of all, at the time of filming she was twenty-four years old. The girl silently watched as her colleagues abused the children. She herself took part in provocations several times and supported her colleagues.
“I have a feeling that these so-called “bloggers” are simply asserting themselves at the expense of the guys! And note, the one who shouts the most is the one who has achieved nothing!” — quote from blogger Nikolai Sobolev.
After the criticism, the project's customers decided to close it. Daniil Komkov himself personally wrote a post on Twitter that there would be no continuation of the show. He emphasized that he was very sorry.
To be fair, it should be noted that the popularity of the program participants has dropped sharply. Subscribers of Komkov and Katya Klap are disappearing before our eyes. But discontent and complaints are still being received. But negative popularity is also popularity. For example, Danya Komkov showed himself in the new television program “Verified by a Blogger.” The guy started in his homeland in the first issues, but he is not going to stop there. Filming in big cities is planned in the near future. It seems that he is also targeting Moscow and St. Petersburg. The essence of the program is to check public catering places and large supermarkets.
