The fact that the douchebag caller said he was gonna come out and shoot when Ludwig was gonna come out the door is crazy, people who swat streamers need to be put in prison for attempted murder
(19:03) ahh, thank you for explaining that part. man i feel dumb, i was confused because she said the roommate called and i thought the roommate had said that. i didnt put together that the "person who remained on the phone" was the disgusting imbecile who wanted to "prank" them. i really hope people who swat streamers do time for this bs, so fucking cruel and for what.
@@indecisivejamieI initially saw that part in a short on this channel so it was completely missing the context necessary to figure out who was “going to come out and shoot”
@@indecisivejamieI was also confused it took 3 rewatches to figure it out
Some of them do end up there luckily, due to it being illegal to make a false report like that (in the U.S at least) Edit; Grammar error
It's illegal to submit a false report to authorities, which swatting counts as a false report. But that's *if* the cops even manage or try to track down the person submitting the false report.
Can we just go back in time to when people gave streamers free food instead of endangering their lives.
It wasn't always free. A lot of the time the pizzas are ordered and the streamer gets told something "10 large pizzas that will be X total" by the driver. On top of that they're expected to tip the driver as well. It usually hurt the pizza company as they would have 10 pizzas or whatever worth of product that they'd paid money for that wasn't sold because some idiot decided to play a "prank".
@@vermontvampyre i think you mean it wasn't _ever_ free... 😜 Its not like the "prankster" would ever pay for it, so if they wanted to be able to ever order pizza again, they'd just pay it and eat pizza for the next week
The choice between having the struggle of, "If I should pay for the 10x pizzas that have been sent to me or my house being raided by armed professionals?" The pricey pizza prank is definitely the lesser evil
Real tho it’s not free I would prefer to not get swatted
In what world was a prank ordering pizza that was paid for?...lol
“There’s a difference between suicidal thoughts and suicidal tendencies and.. it's just scary… even if I'm the most depressed thing in the world, I love life. I don't wanna die, I don't want those things, and so it’s very frustrating when that happens” that sprung a chord hard. I never knew her before this but she’s SO strong and such a cool and down to earth person.
OOOOHHHHHHHHHH!!! Something just clicked in my head. Not sure if it’s a good thing or not:/
time stamp?
I am vaguely similar but that’s because I fear death not because I love life.
Jesus can make those thoughts stop. It’s spiritual, it’s evil spirits putting thoughts in your head
@@Fruitloop30 that's just so not true. some people find comfort in jesus but no amount of bible thumping undoes trauma.
Okay, but why is it so easy to have someone SWATTED?
So true!! System is fucked
It's the "boy who cried wolf" situation except that law enforcement can't just simply ignore it. The streamer may have moved, and a new person(s) may be living there now. For all they know it might be true this time. It sucks but it is what it is. And the SWAT teem gets pissed because their time just got wasted.
@@drakadarkon1458 what does that have anything to do with swatting being an accessible and easy to get away with occurrence?
@@shirosflowernever said it was right or justified. Just explaining why the teem acted the way they did. And the dude has been caught and convicted for the instance that QT is describing in this interview.
@@drakadarkon1458 I see
I’m sorry but it is honestly shocking about how little some people care about the fact that streamers are human being with real emotions.
I think it's either out of jealousy or lack of parental attention when it comes to people who like to swat their "favourite streamer". Idek how some people can find swatting funny..
Yea it's even scarier to think how easy you yourself forget, like when a youtuber who does weekly or daily uploads just goes off the map and you just literally forget about the possibility of their having a life, and no matter how hard you try, if you leave it to your subconscious, then you will forget that people are people. Its freaky.
HA GayyyyyyyYYY!
@@J1mmybeef true. It's like a broken puzzle but you don't know what piece is missing. Not the shape, size or even the color. And that's just weird and irritating
@@tapioca6863 Fr though it’s just pure harassment and the “people” who do it know it is. They’re very mentally ill and unfortunately many twitch viewers are the type that *never* leave their house or their computer screen. I can’t imagine many people watching hours of a stream of a guy sleeping at 4am are normal. 😅
That swat story sounds horrendously traumatic. People are insane to do this to other people.
but for real. Do they really dont check from where the call is coming from? It's not like it's 1980s
@@criminals112 if they were phoning from a normal phone yes but they wouldn’t if they didn’t want to be caught. Either way even if they did track it they would still need to respond the same way unfortunately they couldn’t tell for sure what was happening just from the location.
Whats forse Ludwig mentioned that after first swatting he asked for police to next time call and verify with them in case something similar happened and they agreed and all that. But then he got swatted again and they didnt call or did anything that they talked about.
i think it's justifiable if you are that rich
@@Liza-lm8vq uhhhhhh no
is calling a SWAT team not illegal? how is it that they do this to streamers as if you're ordering a pizza. Tracing the call should be like #1 thing to do, this is so dangerous and i can't see how this is a prank or something funny.
1. yes, its illegal. its a felony in the US. 2. people can spoof their numbers INCREDIBLY easily, which can make it untraceable to even police
Exactly. It should be standard for that kind of stuff, because it could get somebody killed.
Even having the same fucking cops that should know by know that these people are minor celebrities that are being purposely harassed
They use spoofed numbers and burner phones so they can't be tracked
Unless you're calling from a landline, 911 does not have your exact location. they can maybe ping your location to the closest cell tower in the moment. But it is not currently possible to trace the call to an exact location/caller within the 30 seconds to 10 minutes a 911 call usually lasts. All they know is that someone could possibly be losing their life _right now_ and so they act accordingly. The risk of not believing the caller is that someone could die. It's unfortunate that for situations like this, the risk of _believing_ the caller is _also_ that someone might die.
I love how Anthony barely even had to interview her, she just has so many stories and life experience that she could just go on for hours without prompt. Could be the editing tho.
She said on stream they cut off a lot of other things that she had brought up (and she was glad they did not include those segments. I think this is perhaps edited in a way that has actually cut out more of what she was saying (that she maybe didn't want out to the public). So probably the opposite way in terms of editing.
You could tell this was heavily edited
As a wise man once said, "It's not a prank if no one is laughing in the end."
Nor is it a joke if even 1 persons left out
It's not a prank unless EVERYONE laughs at the end
It will never be a joke if someone dies in the end
@@Zalied YES this is the one i subscribe to. i mess with my sister all teh damn time. im an annoying older brother lol. but if she isnt laughing at the end, i messed up. but she laughs every time :)
@@SilverPizza6147 I don't know about that a knock knock joke on hitler ending in an explosion would be pretty fucking funny
That is NOT a prank... that is STRAIGHT UP attempted murder... she could of been killed. How fucked up do you need to be to think that's okay to do. She is so strong and qs someone who has PTSD and OCD I know how horrible it is. I have panic attacks regularly and they are horrific. She's so brave for being able to talk about it. I hope those people get in a LOT of trouble for the damage caused to her and for making the calls in the first place.
yeah, it really sounded like especially slime could've been killed during the first swat.
@@josefinarivia right? it's just sick
Sorry I'm not american and I don't really understand the whole thing? Like it seems stupid that anyone can anonymously make those calls and also how do they even know where the streamers live? Also I genuinely don't understand, Cops need a search warrant to do literally anything and sometimes people die because of inaction caused by it. But apparently SWAT teams can just go around killing people? Like sorry I don't get it lol.
Yes! Someone actually died because of it. You do have to sympathise with the swat force though. Tracing a call takes too long, if the threat was real (which they have to assume it is) they have to act immediately after getting a call.
The type of person to do this also had to scrutinize any stream footage and figure out their where they lived. This person had set out to do this for a while and actively tried to kill them. Evil
This is why I'm terrified of starting out as a female streamer... She just confirmed my fears of being sexualized just for showing yourself online. It's really disgusting and just not right, wtf. There's nothing to do about it though, the internet will always have more and more advanced technology and disgusting pigs...
You stream anyway, no matter what im sure you will be great
I always thought wearing a mask or doing that animated character superimposed over you would be a good option to avoid being personally sexualized.
and it's even harder for her since she is the gf of one of the most popular streamers so the hate is unbelievable for her, whatever she does is criticized.
Go vtuber, there's one who is just *an animated burger!* 😄 Or make the fans fight amongst themselves with a "kid character" like Amai Hiyo Sure you still get a few sickos, but you _get even more_ who are like "PROTECT HER PURITY!!!" 😠
Honestly, you don't show yourself. Ever. No matter how much you get of "who is this,"take the mask off. " You don't. You use nordvpn, you take all these safety procedures and never ever cave for the views. Don't be dream lmao. Stick true and just stay hidden
That was not a prank. That was the type of thing you probably can and should be arrested for. That’s terrible to do to someone.
You can in the US. Mis use of the emergency service system or something.
Is it not considered a false police report?? They should be investigated by the FBI or something. Maybe that would stop the swatting. People need to be held accountable. Disgustingly sad. Infuriating
They need to get rid of anon phone calls
Technically it’s not a police report, (I think somebody has to open a police report) this is a false threat, if it makes you feel better a boy from I wanna say Canada but he was from e somewhere else and he said he was gonna shoot some girls school up in Florida because she rejected Him, he was later swatted and either killed or taken into custody.
The person who made the swat call on QT and Lud is serving 20 years in jail
@@glardian966 I hope that’s true. I was swatted by a classmate (on my birthday) and he only got a fine (he also had to change schools repeatedly, because no one wanted contact with him. And we always found out his new school.)
@@GalacticStudios69 it's still a police report either way. you're reporting to the police and 911 operators that there was something that happened, which means they gotta go check out the situation and Canada has Provinces and the US has states and they have different laws than each other. so by dialing 911 on the phone, you're technically making a report to a 911 operator about something bad happening. a police report doesn't have to be done at the station or in person, it can be done over the phone. i have family that are detectives and officers of the law including a couple people i went to school with. it sounds like to me, you're one of the people who makes the phone calls for streamers to be swatted, by saying "it's not a police report." it's both a false threat and police report at the same time.
honestly this has to be taken more seriously and should genuinely be illegal. look how quickly swat teams got for these stupid calls, but when it’s genuinely a bad situation, they can’t do shit ?? for fucks sake
Swating is actually illegal the problem is them never trying to find the person that called the police
It also seems so counterintuitive that a SWAT would even work in genuine situations (hostages, murder-suicides). Where are the people to de-escalate? A dangerous person with a gun is only going to get more dangerous when they have loads of guns trained on them- at that point they have nothing to lose.
@@secondrateseth8360 Yeah they are supposed to send hostage negotiators in that scenario. If that was a real hostage situation it could have turned incredibly ugly with how they responded. I also think it’s ridiculous that QT’s house got swatted 3 times, sometimes with the same officers, but they still had that aggressive reaction. The SWAT team can’t be that stupid, obviously it’s a prank.
@@dramaqueen465 yeah i would expect in swat situations they have those negotiators on the line with the house even before they arrive or start yelling at them.
I watched a video not too long ago I think by wavywebsurfer about a guy who regularly swatted streamers and ended up getting someone killed.. I'm pretty sure he got jail time
the swat told her to "get a new job"????? like actually???? oh my god????
“sorry we threatened to murder you, but it’s your fault because you chose to generate income through completely legal means”
It’s the LAPD that’s not shocking, other streamers that gave been Swatted are basically in first name bases with the team, and it’s a hey it happing again isn’t it
@@jurdie111yea like wtf it’s just a job and a lot of people have their faces attached to their jobs anyway
@jurdie111 sorry we lost your cat too. No we wont help you look for it. Go get a real job. Smh
"get a new job and we won't find your cat that we let out" 😔😭
Me and my immediate family are all on the spectrum, and getting swatted sounds like an absolute horror story. When you have people with guns that DO NOT CARE if you live or die and are ready to fire, it is an actual nightmare for people who don't react the most logically to situations. Hearing QT talk about her PTSD from the situation teared me up just because I know from just getting pulled over that if I were to have a meltdown, I'd be dead and everyone would see it as my fault for not reacting correctly to an intensely stressful and hostile situation. It makes you wonder if we should be teaching children from a young age how not to be shot by the police, and how to present as little threat as possible so they can be safe from the "protectors" of peace.
The fact that that's even a thing we should have to teach is appalling. I'm a preschool teacher, and I can't imagine teaching something like that to my kids. I'm also on the spectrum and would probably also react "incorrectly" to the situation
I’ve worked with several people with asd and respectfully I’m confused what kind of meltdowns you have that would most likely lead to your death. Not that it always takes much for the police, which is why almost every parent of color has been having that talk you wonder about with their young kids for decades
@@MolotovsCocktailsI think they mean that if they had a meltdown in a situation with the police they might die.
@@Ali-mv3jc Thanks, I got that, I was just curious what kind of meltdown behavior they exhibit that leads them to believe the police would kill them
@@MolotovsCocktails My guess is, in a lot of police shootings, police shoot because the suspect "wasn't complying". A person having a meltdown, even a "benign" one likely isn't going to be able to comply with loud and sometimes confusing police demands. Not complying due to meltdown/acting 'erratically' due to meltdown --> shot.
this woman is so strong and understandable, i feel so safe in her presence.
qt is seriously the best

Her streams are really great. She's got a terrific sense of humor. And I know for me personally, the way she is willing to speak openly about her struggles with mental health has really helped me be more comfortable talking about it with friends and all too.
This is a very blessed comment. 🖤
You’ve never been in her presence yall just say shit and you don’t even make it make sense💀
Jesus, QT. It's crazy how people have no thought process about swatting at all. You definitely deserve a big break, AND a crown for the Queen of Twitch that you are.
I really hope that in the future, Swatting never works out, I absolutely goddamn hate those disgusting people who would ruin someone life just for a “laugh” I hope QT and other people affected by swatting heal, because it isn’t something that can be forgotten easily ❤
Qt the queen of twitch? lol More like a clout chasing snake lol
sadly some of them do, they just don´t care
They know what swatting does. They know exactly what the results could be. that's why they do it.
Oh.. they have a thought process. They just don't have any empathy.
Shoutouts to Anthony Padilla for being an outlet for stories this powerful, and shoutouts to QT for sharing her story. We as the human race must do better.

Her describing swatting in such a real, raw, terrifying, and traumatic way really explains how crazy it is that people do it and think it's just a prank or joke. Its Sad that you have to live in fear of that.
Not really, she is just mentally challenged. Any sane normal person does not have to go through that crap she is talking about. Her brain is broke.
Based on the first one with the "I am coming out with a gun" it was definitely malicious wanting someone to die...
@@joshuaslawson9125 exactly I hope whoever did that get caught and arrested for second degree attempted murder
And now that she says that she has PTSD, some sick idiot will think it's a good idea to do it again to make her suffer
I don't think the person making the call was stupid enough to believe it was a funny prank. This was attempted homicide. The caller should be arrested and put in jail, but sadly, I doubt they ever found him.
The fact people even consider swatting a prank is baffling, that’s no prank its a straight up crime and those people need to be arrested
I've never heard of QTCinderella before today but her story really got to me, all those things that have happened and the issues that have arised due to the trauma feels so close to what I've gone through these past years. Before even finishing the interview, just seeing her cry and not feel ashamed said a lot about her character. And then hearing her speak so openly about her experiences just helped me feel a little less alone. I really wish her the best in life. 🙏🏼
She does a lot of really cool streams. Most recently she did a charity summer love song concert with a bunch of other streamers in honor of her mom where they raised money to pay animals adoption fees and she ended it with a tribute by singing mama Mia (her mothers favorite song), she’s a great host and does a lot of similar content to that, they’re always very well set up. I really recommend checking her out!
@@Grexsome will do, thanks!!!
I didn’t know who she was before this video, but she seems like such a genuine individual. It takes so much strength to push through with PTSD, I have so much respect for her
I've know of her for a while. She's super hardworking and deserves all the success she's had come her way. Can't wait for the next streamer awards!
yeah QT is really good at seeming like a genuine individual
I've only known of Ludwig through passing because of other people I watch. I thought I had heard something involving Ludwig and him being swatted before. Before, I was just like, "Oh, that's a fucked up thing to do". Now I'm shaking and furious that somebody would put somebody into this kind of a situation. Especially to somebody who seems very kind, looking at how she always wanted to make sure everyone was alright.

@@polina-rs4lr are you coming online for some amongus soon?
Man, my heart hurts so much for QT. Swatting is absolutely vile behavior, and those who do it should get the same punishment as murderers. The fact that, in these particular cases, their murder attempt failed, shouldn't reduce their sentence. QT seems like such a genuinely kind person - there's nothing she could have done that would even remotely justify the hell she's been through. I really hope she and Lud are able to figure out a living situation that will guarantee them some peace and safety.
QT is genuinely such a strong woman and I admire how resilient she is through such hard times. Having ptsd combined with ocd is unimaginable especially for such a public figure. While she does have a subjectively easy life compared to her viewers, but theres a whole laundry list of unimaginable hardships she has had to face.
i had my house swatted when i was 6 (because my dad was doing illegal activities) and i still am not the same. they don’t care about what happens with you, you don’t get a warning and it’s absolutely petrifying. i can’t imagine having to go through it several times for a prank, she is so strong.

Sending her a virtual hug. She's been through so much just trying to live her life. I can relate to the trauma, PTSD, and OCD, but not the publicized trauma. It's not deserved.
Can confirm, it's not a fun combo. I can't imagine having people actively trying to ruin your life on top of that.
ok
ok
I can relate to trauma and PTSD too, it’s horrible and no one deserves it :(.
ok
I was raided once because of my sibling getting in trouble, very scary experience. I have PTSD from waking up to a swat team with giant guns waking me up. I was in a nightdress with no undergarmets, and have now learned never to sleep in something you aren't willing to be seen in if an emergency happens. Some other things I've done since then at my own home. I have lots of cameras. There is a driveway doorbell, so I can know when a car pulls into the driveway.
"1, 2, 3, 4, 5. I just got through the past 5 seconds." was surprisingly powerful and moving. Honestly, I never really thought of life like that, but when you're in a super dark place, when holding on to something or celebrating those tiny seemingly unimpressive little achievements is all you can do in that specific moment, that is enough and you *should* celebrate them because you fucking got through them. Now go and give yourself another tiny achievement to absolutely rock and eventually you'll be able to expand those into bigger and bigger goals. I will definitely be taking this mantra with me from now on. ❤️
Imagine being so much of an a**hole that you arrive to an innocent person's house, terrorize them and then refuse to help them even after you realize they're innocent, be rude about it, and come back to do it again without acknowledging it at all. I really hate police.
the fact that they're probably just mad about their time being wasted and the paperwork they've gotta do while these innocent people are clinically traumatized...
Swat and police in general arent even trained to work with people or to help people at all. They should be trained just like social workers but instead they mostly just get firearms training and a books about laws and police code. They basically dont care about the people that pay their wages for the most part.
They had the ultimate scenario: larp as heroes without having anything on the line, I would think they'd be grateful 😭
well thats an american police problem, in alot of countrys its way better!
Look I agree they should've acted differently and decently, but you gotta keep in mind the SWAT team goes in there preparing themselves for hundreds of dangers and possible traumas they might encounter. They're risking their lives with a call like that and also have to be mentally sharp enough not to harm anyone innocent. If a call like that turns out to be a prank, they're still fired up and full of adrenaline. They go in there fully ready to kill another human being and are asked to help look for a cat. So yeah I wish they'd reacted differently, but don't blame them for what happened.
QT has so many traumatic stories. Getting kidnapped as a kid, almost being trafficked, swatting, etc. She’s so strong.
seriously so strong. she needs so much more credit
I’ve never heard of her before this,she seems like a genuine person who i want to sub to,she deserves every sub she has
I didn't know much about QTCinderella until this and some of her stories broke my heart. I always saw her as confident, friendly, and kind, but now I know it comes from a lot of harships. Im happy she is doing well. She deserves all her success.
tbh I feel so sorry for her. She fought so hard for her place in the world and other people are being so cruel to her.

Unfortunately lost him in 2020 to Covid, and I can relate so much to that feeling of just utter silence and not having them there to share things in your life with anymore.
Hearing QT talk about being swatted is honestly so sad and infuriating. How can people be so heartless and evil to do that to another person. Wishing her all the success, and thank you Anthony for shedding light into streamer’s life with this interview.
Seconding. It broke my heart; it sounds terrifying and I can only imagine the kind of trauma it creates. I'm not surprised she has PTSD from it. I hate that people can do something so heartless, and I'm glad she's talking about it.
@@nightingalebardyeah I’ve never really heard someone describe swatting like she has. It’s so much more violent and terrifying than some people make it out to be.
Yeah it's also like; that shit was completely not okay even back when swattings first started being a thing, and then people were killed from being swatted, and even after that some jackasses still think it's funny. Like no
QT isn’t my most watched streamer, but probably the one I respect the most for the content she generates. She gives people a way to enjoy the streamers they love in another way
And all her events are great
Yes I always carve out time to watch shit camp because Ludwig, Austin, Hassan, Rae, just to name a few are all just hilarious when they are together. It's just cool to see them all come together from the different types of streams they make to do activities together. 💕
I agree, she is the streamer I have the deepest respect for
As a fellow fan (not rly) of both suicidal tendencies and thoughts, I can't help but weep for her. It sucks living this life, it always finds ways to creep back in your head, no matter how well you're doing, and it never truly goes away. I always feel like I'm fending off challengers that wish to duel me to death. And the thought of losing the duel one day, scares the living shit out of me.
You are loved and I hope you yourself can/has learned that 🥰
Former 911 worker here - sometimes we can track phone numbers but sometimes people are really good at using technology to hide their information even from police. Most departments do keep a record so if you’ve been swatted before, they’re able to recognize a swatting again. I’ve worked a few swattings with twitch streamers, and luckily we were able to just call the streamer and verify that it was not happening. Unfortunately sometimes, this isn’t an option and they are forced to take it seriously.
God QT is just such a kind, hard-working soul. I want to give her the biggest hug & I hope she gets the recognition and success she deserves. Oh god and hearing her sleeping schedule JUST to be swatted again. It really breaks my heart
facts man streamers get treated like shit
Yes! I was so not expecting her to say it happened AGAIN like wtf. Whoever did that needs to be caught.
@@LunaLoveBad6969 they were caught! She talked about it on her podcast wine about it, but they did get and prosecute the guy from the sounds of things!
QT gets so much shit for no fuckin reason. But I am glad that lately she's been getting the love she deserves from chat and other streamers. QT is a hyper anxiety filled, annoyance, LIKE ME ☺ and I cherish her, and am extremely happy for her growth.
She gets shit because she is in a relationship and horrible people don't like to see other people happy with something they don't have.
@@DreamingVoid ifykyk, and you don't 😂
I felt the love she had for Ludwig when she said she stayed awake every time Ludwig was asleep on stream. She shouldn't be experiencing anyone of this, honestly.
why are you happy about having anxiety
@@ToBy11334 im not. But she's relatable to me.
The rage I have for the people who did those, “pranks,” is indescribable.
Dude the way she described the feeling of losing a parent is SPOT on. Lost my dad in 2021 and it was so surreal.
such a good episode. i love how she showed the darkness that the industry can cause. genuinely love her content. thank u anthony
qtcHeart
Definitely one of the most open and honest interviews, both of them came across wonderfully 👏
@Dex it doesnt matter who its "for" it affects everybody living in the house. And you cant say "third wheel" for someone who is literally ludwig's partner
@@ingenious_crab1952 it’s just funny how ppl actually say that dumb shii🤣 “third wheel “ “nothing special”, QT is great and he can’t take away from what she went through or experienced.
@Dex she lives in the same house as ludwig, so it directly effects her and the roommates as well. let’s not be dense pls.
Bruh she got me tearing up when she counted to 5 and said "you just got through the last 5 seconds, good job!" Whack I needed that honestly
Crying in the taco bell drive thru
I came here after sitting with my daughter watching this. I can honestly say, I am so happy she watches somebody who is so fierce and honest and real! QT is a warrior! I'm so sorry you have had to be the victim of some small minded individuals "prank"(which isn't a prank it's a crime). Keep shining bright! Your followers love and appreciate you 🖤 love from the UK 🖤
Getting people who haven’t dealt with depression to understand that having suicidal thoughts is one of the scariest things ever is so hard to do
Yeah I have to disagree, I've struggled with depression and suicidal thoughts for well over a decade now, tried to kill myself a few times, but I have never been scared by it or found the thoughts scary. Often times it's a really peaceful thought. Like I have been fully prepared to die before and I was so at peace and relaxed and comfortable. It's not an uncommon response to death or near death experience but maybe it's less common in terms of suicide? When the brain knows it's gonna die it floods with chemicals, basically you trip out on feel good happy chemicals, it's your brains way of protecting you from fear and pain. I can experience that sometimes by tricking my brain to think we are gonna die.
@@thamertanner5448I just want to say I’m glad you’re still here. God bless you stranger
Her personality is so pure
Hi
Nice
Good
i like it
Nice
I definitely feel for QTCinderella when she said "cuz girls are an accessory". This is more or less how Marzia felt, according to her own words she lost her identity as herself because people mainly treated her as Pewdiepie's girlfriend (now wife) and not as Marzia. Can you imagine what it must feel like being treated as if you dont exist outside of the context of another person? It's insane that women are more likely to be treated this way. Marzia is just one of many examples and I'm sorry to mention specifically her but unfortunately she's the biggest example of being mistreated by other people this way. I know so many similar examples of women treated this way. It's sad that it comes down to this gendered topic, I wish these kinds of things didnt happen regardless of gender.
i loved marzias channel it was so sad when she quit
THIS THIS THIS THIS THIS
It makes me sad bcs i loved Marzia's content and the way she carries herself. Such a kind, humble genuine person. Whenever I was having a bad day or particularly anxious I would watch her DIY or relaxing vlogs. She had an artistic eye for those things.
It's like in the 1800's, when a woman would be called Mrs. Scott Smith or Mrs. Tom Doe... completely erasing her name and replacing it with her husband's, like she isn't worthy of her own identity. I felt profound sadness about this just from looking at a photo of women many years ago, on a wall in a curling club. All those women were posing for the photo, and underneath the photo I could read their names, but it was all "Mrs." + Husband's Name. These women are just remembered as the wife of a man who completely overshadows them, taking their names away, even though their photo is on a wall for me to see, decades and decades later.
This! It was sad to see her leave.
Anthony i feel this every single episode - the absolute truthful empathy/sympathy you give in such an appropriate and amazing way that makes everyone feel comfortable while alowing emotions to be felt and discussed its amazing and QT thank you so much for being such a strong woman who can talk about her life while showing her emotions, but staying strong to keep talking is wow This is one of my favorite series on youtube, and I know is helping so many people, thank you!!
we really need to bring back the delivery pizza prank
As a qt fan I’m super excited to hear her say she wants to be a stand up comedian. She’d be perfect for it, but also what can’t she do perfectly
Hopefully she realizes what she signing up for.
@@bige4333 You don’t think the years of streaming taught her that?😐
@@akilahlayan naw its a different animal. Shit can go down,there are no monitors and you feel the room. Its really different. I didnt believe it either til i went to see ccomedy live. Even the best have to deal with hecklers,Timing and bombing. Im not saying she cant do it. But its alot to conquer and succeed at. Years of dedication and working bits non stop.
@@akilahlayan also i dont think she couldnt stream and do stand up seriously. She would run herself ragged for comedy shows usually run late. She would be new so her spots would be later, probably be bumped quite often til she established herself and gathered a following in the scene. I could easily see anyone attempting that burning out hard. But i have been proven wrong. She would be one the few who could.
Every time QT gets real I start sobbings - homegirl has gone through everything yet still standing strong, succeeding and paving the path for women and young girls
I hope she gets another podcast
I had heard about the swatting incident, but I didn't know it was like this intense, that's horrifying 😢 and the fact that it happened again so close to the end of the subathon just when she felt safe enough to let her guard down for that night... I honestly truly think that unwarranted swatting like that should get jail time, because not only are you wasting police time and resources that could go to actually helping someone who's in genuine danger, you are also deliberately putting innocent people's lives at risk and causing trauma. And clearly that caller KNEW that, since they said "I'm gonna come out and shoot." They WANTED someone to get hurt. I understand that anyone somewhat well-known is bound to have haters, but to hate someone you've never even met so much that you will go to such lengths to put them in harm's way is just mindboggling to me.
Thank you for showing me a new side of her I never saw. When she was talking about her mom, I began to cry with her. MY mom is my bestfriend too and I can't imagine the pain she feels knowing its too late to give her the house she wanted and experiencing the grief.
Only 5 minutes in but I LOVE this new conversation style you're going with as opposed to it feeling like more of an interview
Lowkey he seems to have learned it a little from Ludwig ever since he was on the yard and ever since he interviewed Ludwig he has a lot more of a casual approach
@@jenkummankum9211 Being on The Yard and Trash Taste definitely helped him come up with this newer style
I think that's more up to her taking long to respond, and also it's not really an interview when it's with fellow creators
I have never seen this side of her. I can't believe she was dealing with so much. I'm happy she is pulling through and has given us so much entertainment and laughs. thank you for everything qtCinderella. You are one of the most amazing content creator out here. Thank you.
Having ocd and suicidal thoughts is horrifying honestly. I sympathize because I’ve lived this way and I know how horrific it feels
Her segment about her mother really hit home because my mother was the exact same way. Everything from the constant calls to the always being there was my mother and 5 years later I still feel that silence she spoke about of my phone not ringing from her anymore. The point is I can relate
mad respect to qt!! she’s done so many amazing things for the community! can’t wait for the second streamer awards🤞
It is gonna be on my birthday!
@@sphawesome571 lol mine too!
Her explaining suicidal thought is so accurate, I literally deal with what she explains all the time and it really is scary. I tried to reach out and my therapist at the time told my mom and then out of anger my mom took me out of therapy. I wish that people would be like "just don't" cause that's not how it works. anyway sorry I hope you guys have a good day.
don't apologize, people are here to listen ❤️. intrusive thoughts are really scary as they come and go. it's worth it to acknowledge that you are not your thoughts, and they don't have to mean anything if you don't want them to. if they ever turn serious, please know there are many people out there who are willing to help out and you deserve that love and care. I'm sorry your mom reacted that way
Wtf your mum heard that you're suicidal and decided to take you OUT of therapy?? I'm so sorry
@@ComedyGlor I was afraid of the same thing when I talked about it in front of my mom when we were meeting the therapist and she asked. She asked how bad it’s gotten and I said as bad as it’s gets and an attempt has been made. Instead my mom started crying and apologizing to me (she did nothing wrong I just don’t fit in and adhd has made it hard and I stress a lot about things ti that point) she apologized and thought it was her fault I think I would have rather her get mad cause it’s not her fault
@@cooperweller5472my mom just sent me to a mental hospital for a week, made it way worse. That was 3 years ago and I can safely say I am miraculously over it. Because in the moment it feels like its not possible to get over it.
@@chandlereaves6573 Happy ur still here❤❤
QT described so well how I felt and am still feeling towards my dad passing away. It's been 1 year not too long ago and he was always there for me whenever I needed anything, checking up on me constantly. So when he passed, what hurt the most was realizing that I lost ''that person''.
I just crossed this interview because of a short, I didn't knew she did an interview with him. Im glad I watched this, I have an even biggest respect for her, her journey it's insane and some stuff that she had to deal with (in the mental topic) struck close.
QT talking about having PTSD and how she feels like she can’t sleep because of it is so real. i was recently diagnosed with PTSD and many people have told me it’s not real or that i am faking it. seeing her talk about it makes me feel so seen and known that it’s not just for a specific group of people
hey, ive also been diagnosed with ptsd and i hope you are doing okay. fuck all the people who say things like that. stay strong
man 9 minutes in this is one of the saddest episodes (of interviewing streamers). and i haven't gotten to the swatting part yet :/ Hope QT can deal with these things and feel better about them in the future, good luck!
The talk about suicide hit me so incredibly hard. I’ve had “depression” since I was 6. When my mom left. I’m 31 now. And the darkness ebbs and flows. But to hear it said is such a way. That I hadn’t connected in my own mind. Hit me so hard I erupted in tears. To anyone dealing with this. I feel you. Not that I can help. Cause I don’t know how to help myself. But thank you guys. For putting it into words I hadn’t connected yet. Not a “breakthrough” but helps me potentially explain it to loved ones. Wow. Intense.
When you were talking about your mom hit home so hard. My mom passed in Oct. 2020 and everything you said is so true
Just her being a streamer with ocd, I can imagine the hellish stuff her brain comes up with during streaming, with that many people paying attention to everything she does. Doing that while also handling all the other bullshit that comes with streaming is unimaginable to me. People without ocd have no idea, that is a very strong person
I’ve never heard of her, but listen to her speak, she sounds like such a kind, caring, and genuine person. I can’t understand how someone could do this to her. And then how people can feel it’s justifiable. Insanity.
How do you not know who Ludwig is
@@R7SkIlZthe internet is vast .
@@R7SkIlZ I'm on youtube every day I have basicly no life watch 100s of content creators but only recently really found out about ludwig/qt, it's quite easy to miss some content creators lol
@@R7SkIlZ The internet has so many people uploading different kinds of content and thousands of videos it is hard to watch every or most popular content creators.
the caller did it multiple times to them too it’s happened on more than one occassion. highly recommend watching the pinned video!
She seems like such a sweet and genuine person. I feel for her she didn’t deserve what happened to her.
Her talking about how during the swatting she was scared she would die if she sneezed makes me scared what would happen if someone with tourettes and ticks got swatted. So many people have ticks that could easily get them killed in a situation like that. I hope Sweet Anita and all other internet celebrities with ticks stay safe.
the unfortunate reality is that a lot of people with disabilities are killed by police for that reason. hearing impaired people are often arrested or killed for 'refusing to listen' or 'resisting arrest' when in reality they can't hear the police, same with people with cognitive impairments and mental illness who may not entirely understand what's happening. people with tics or neurological issues are often arrested, tased or shot at for making sudden movements and noises, or for not moving at all.
@@zoekarina6966 that's such a good, important point. Swatting is a pretty rare occurrence considering how most people aren't famous internet celebs, but even any common police interaction could dangerously escalate if that person has disabilities.
When she started talking about where her PTSD started I just started crying because I know EXACTLY the feeling she's talking about when she says "the one day I didn't check, it happened." I have PTSD and for anyone with this you know this is your worst fear confirmed. Though tbh the hypervigilance beforehand shows she probably had it from the first time they got swatted. That whole story was so traumatic too.
Oh man. My mother passed away and she was like her mom plus I have ptsd currently not being to sleep...the reason why I came across this vid actually. It was like I was talking (grief/ptsd parts) this vid means so much. I don't feel so alone or misunderstood. Every thing she said about that is on point to what I'm dealing with. Much love to this girl!! Sending lots of healing vibes her way and thank you for this vid. It came when I needed it most ❤❤
I got so choked up listening to her speak about her mother. Literally sitting here with tears in my eyes writing this. I lost my grandmother recently and it’s been very hard. I couldn’t even imagine losing my mom.
QT is one of the streamers who seem like they have been through some of the most trauma and yet still all she wants to do is get streamers together and have a good time. She is such a badass and so inspiring, hearing her talk so casually about so much trauma is heartbreaking.
She has the survivor tales of everything she’s been through. That’s why she is loved, because she’s fought the haters and came out winning.
Everyone should watch QT's streams. She is such a talented human being and her streams are always a vibe, whether it's a big event that she spend months planning, a casual baking stream, or a no cam potato league stream. She's a queen
She’s a Saint, pure and simple. She brings the best in all she does, and we love her for all she does.
True! People always talk about the events (and they should), but qt is legitimately one of the funniest people on twitch and you only really catch that if you watch the regular streams. At the events she’s typically too busy being the organizer.
I see myself so much in QT personality wise and it makes me sort of comforting and not alone. I love her so much now and she will deserve my love and appreciation.
SO much respect for qt after this. I've been chillin with her and lud (and the roomie-boys, of course) for a minute now, but nothing has inspired me more to do what I love and keep on truckin' than this interview with qt. I'm so glad she's still around, and still makin wonderful things, and even doing her best to uplift those around her regardless of how the community has been treating her for so long. Thank you anthony for bringing her on and listening, and thank you qt for inspiring those like myself by just being you. Lots of love from me today, and i'm DEF not crying stfu..,,,..,,, ;w;
Qt is amazing, and I love how much she is changing twitch. Its really sad how mych she has been through and in my opinion still doesn't get all the recognition she deserves. Her being nominated at the game awards was amazing but even tho she deserved it they still gavd it to ludwig because he is bigger.
Bigger or not, he is a better streamer than QT. He may not put in as much effort sometimes but he doesn't need to. She totally deserves more recognition but she can't compete with ludwig at being a likeable and watchable streamer in most peoples opinion
@@ktgame2640 yikes
@@rainbowtrout950 have u even watched her streams dude? I fux with her stuff but you’re crazy if you think she’s a better “streamer”. She provides a lot of value and is super important to the streaming world, but ludwig is hands down the better streamer. Just look at “the yard” and her podcast, the difference is night and day. He does the most and she kinda just reacts, her events are baller tho
How is she changing twitch lol just because you are used to watching streamers sit in front of the computer doesn't mean other don't put on big events.
Ludwig also did great content this year but let's not beef here. I'm sure that they are both happy and they seemed to be really supportive of each other's work so let's not compare and belittle each another.
started bawling at her talking about her mother because she literally says it exactly how it is.
Listening to her talk about her mom....my mom was the same way, super attentive but with the best intentions. Constantly affirming that me being myself was the best thing I could do for myself. Losing a parent young is so hard, I was 16 and whenever you think about that parent you back to the age you were when it happened and it hurts just the same. I wish I could give her a hug 💞 I know that pain and how endlessly lonely it feels. Glad I watched this interview she seems like a really cool person
9:24 her talking about her mom is so sweet:) you can tell how much she loves her mom
her swatting stories really made me think about xqcs sleep issues and swatting incidents, I cannot imagine how difficult it is to cope with these events. :( so fucking messed up
im so mad about what people said when she turned off the stream after the swatting... like holy fu what is wrong with people
People love drama. If they can make up an interesting story they can talk about endlessly, they will. Since they are streamers, people emphazise with them less because they don't know them personally.
The fact that she apparently apologized after this recording because she thought it wouldn’t get very many viewers just makes this sadder.
