Zoella Apologizes For Past Offensive Tweets Dug Up After Fans Were Angry About Prices in Her Holiday Lifestyle Collection

Zoella is no stranger to the rumor mill, or angry fans determined in some way to get her attention — and this time, they got her attention.

After gripping on social media about just how much her holiday lifestyle collection was priced at — specifically the advent calendar at $65 — certain “fans” started to dig up really, really old tweets from her, where she had been using language and opinions that she wouldn’t use or voice today.

“I’ve seen a few of my old tweets from 7/8 years ago floating around (which I have now deleted) using words like ‘chav’ ‘skank’ and other words I wouldn’t use now as part of my language and lot of them were taken out of context referring to TV shows,” Zoella apologized this morning on her Twitter.

She adds, “But I would never say those things now and I’m sorry if I have offended anyone, that was not my intention. Obviously that is not who I am today and I’d like to think I’m a little older and wiser! I’m not perfect and I’ve never claimed to be, I’m only human.”
