Tati

Hi all, James here. I'm currently traveling abroad and just woke up, but I wanted to sit down and make a video addressing everything that's going on right now, um...because I owvrebody—I owe everybody an explanation, um...but most importantly I owe two important people, um...an apology. To Tati and James...Westbrook, um...I'm sorry. For everything that is going on, everything that I have put you through...over the past few weeks.
(Five seconds of heavy breathing)
I met Tati...and James almost three years ago now. When I was first coming into the industry and when I had no friends and nobody to talk to or look up to and Tati very quickly took on a parental role—with me. Because she knew my parents were across the country and over the past few years of knowing her family, her and her husband have given me so much love, and advice, and opportunities...and...a play to stay? And...a shoulder to cry on at three in the morning...and...support, when nobody else would or wanted to. And it—it, I'm—so...disappointed in myself that I ruined...a relationship that...did mean so much to me? Even if I didn't do the best job of...showing it all the time. And throughout all of this, what sucks the most is that there's nothing I can say or do to ever earn that friendship or trust back. But I don't blame them for it. Um...a lot of my...most—of my career over the past two years has been about me making mistakes and trying to learn and grow from them. And I haven't always done the best job of that, I can admit that. But I have always tried...because I know there's a lot of people watching me, and that, um...a lot of people look up to me as a role model, and it—I-I hate...knowing that I disappointed...not only them but most importantly two people that have been role models to me, doing this. Um...I wish that I could say this is the last time that i would make a mistake, but it won't be. I know that I'll disappoint people, more and more as I continue to learn and grow every single day. I have a long way to go. Very long way to go.
(Long exhale)
But that's okay. Um...I'm gonna keep trying my best and keep learning and growing...um...and be the version of me that I possibly can be. And I'm sorry. For that.
In regards to the coachella situation, with the...brand deal and the security guard, I've already told my truth about this twice, and instead of talking about it for a third time and explaining it and going into detail and pulling up receipts, it doesn't matter. Um...and I'm—I understand that no matter what I say or do, there's always gonna be people that don't believe me and will think that I'm lying...and that's okay. Um...at this point the truth really does not matter, it's the feelings that do and no matter what happened, I hurt two very very important people. Um...and they've been really really loyal to me and I've betrayed that. And it sucks and I wish more than anything that I could take it back.
In regards to, the boy situation...um...boys have been a topic that I've talked a lot about on my social media journey...and it's a topic that I wish I hadn't. Um...I've been involved with a lot of very unique and strange situations...that have left people confused or upset...and I learned the hard way...about...um...ways that I can interact with boys that I'm interested in, and also ones that I should or shouldn't be talking to. Um...this is a conversation that...I know a lot of people are uncomfortable with, and, um...it's something that I should have been far more careful with bringing into the public eye, especially with the last situation that just happened. Um...I've had to learn it the hard way, but coincidentally enough Tati really was one of the people to sit me down and tell me how it looked from the outside, um...and...let me know, “Hey, talking to these boys might get you in trouble one day.” And she was right.
In regards to, my own mother...mom, I know you want to defend me and fight for me and go off on comments...but I ask that you don't, this is my problem that I got myself into and it's my job to deal with this. No matter what is—anybody saying, or commenting or talking about...mom I need you to know...that you're the most supportive person in my life...and that you're an amazing mother...and I don't know what I would do without you, and I'm so grateful for everything that you've done for me...and the lessons that you've taught me, and...and everything that you continue to do for me and my brother. And...I need you to know that. I need you to know that. And the same thing goes for Tati, as well. Who is an amazing person, and, truly does want the best for everybody around her. And I'm so disappointed in myself that I...hurt her.
(Deep exhaling)
Um...a lot of times when I've had to address things in the past, I've acted out of impulse and I've gone off and tried to pull out receipts, or facts, or screenshots, and played the victim...and I'm not doing that today. I'm not. Um...
(Sixteen seconds of blinking)
That is all I have to say. I'm sorry.
