When Colleen Ballinger was accused of being racist during the set of her Netflix series "Haters Back Off," some of her loyal fans cried that one assistant showrunner's blog is not enough proof to tear down Ballinger's reputation.

However, several new clips of the YouTuber have resurfaced, showing that the blog post by April Korto Quioh might hold more water than they had initially credited her for.

A video of Ballinger, dressed as her Miranda Sings character, impersonating Beyonce, in blackface, and a leotard resurfaced online, which only sparked the ire of more netizens.

"Jesus f**king Christ, it keeps getting worse," a Twitter user wrote.

"This is highly disrespectful and disturbing to Beyonce."

"[I don't know] how she thought she could sing her way out of this s**t."

"Wonder how she'll play her ukelele out of this one," another added, referring to Ballinger's YouTube video of her addressing the initial allegations of grooming and inappropriate behavior with minors against her.

More of Miranda Sings' 'Racist' Videos Resurface

Below Pop Crave's initial tweet about Ballinger's racist attempts at impersonating-maybe even mocking--Beyonce, a netizen shared a TikTok video compilation of the YouTuber being racist over the years. The TikTok video, uploaded by user hatsunemikufan0102, shows Ballinger wearing her usual Miranda Sings outfits, singing, and portraying different personalities and races. It starts with Ballinger singing the hit KPOP song "Gangnam Style" by PSY, followed by clips of her mocking someone of Latin descent and indigenous people.

According to reports, Ballinger had already apologized for the video of her mocking Latina women in 2020. "It is not funny, and it is completely hurtful.

"I am so ashamed and embarrassed that I ever thought this was OK. I was a sheltered teenager who was stupid and ignorant and clearly extremely culturally insensitive... Racial stereotypes are not funny, they're not a joke, and they should never be joked about."

However, there seems to be no apology issued regarding her mocking Beyonce, PSY, and indigenous people as of this writing.

Colleen Ballinger Responds to Grooming Allegations

The YouTuber first came to people's radar last week when a former fan of hers came forward, claiming that she had groomed them and exhibited inappropriate behavior like talking about sex with them or sending them lingerie.

"The only thing I've ever groomed is my two Persian cats," Ballinger sang in her recently uploaded YouTube video. "I'm not a groomer, just a loser / who didn't understand I shouldn't respond to fans / and I'm not a predator even a lot of you think so / because five years ago I made a fart joke."
