Story of Why this story? The video opened at a pace of 497,585 views a day, 10 times a normal first day on this channel (48,032).
absolutely not happening infront of me!!! #girls #trend #selflove #confidence
Seven hours, 212,000 views. That is far more than a short on PovGirl8995 usually gathers in a whole first day, and it came from one of six uploads posted on October 6.
The title, "absolutely not happening infront of me!!!", sets up the bit, and the tags (#selflove, #confidence) give away the theme. Going by what viewers write, the thing being refused is someone calling themselves ugly. The comment section answers in kind. Several viewers say the channel is what makes them feel confident, one says simply that they needed it, and another asks for a follow-up about a different insecurity.
Those comments arrived quickly, too: in seven hours there were already about three times as many as a short here usually collects in its first full day. Not all of them are thank-yous. A handful of the most liked ask the channel to give credit to someone they call Spencer, who they say is the woman on screen. The title and tags name no one.
The rest of the day's batch was lighter: a haunted house billed as the scariest yet, a pumpkin date idea, a trip to a local farm with a fall outfit. The haunted house came closest, and even it drew less than a third of the self-love short's views.
