YouTuber NikkiTutorials came out as transgender.
Nikkie de Jager, a YouTube beauty guru who goes by the handle NikkieTutorials, has come out as transgender. In a video titled "I'm Coming Out," de Jager explained to her 12.5 million subscribers that she was "scared" to come forward, but that after she came out, she felt liberated and free. The video was posted today, though de Jager added that she was blackmailed into coming out before she felt ready.
reports that de Jager told viewers that someone threatened to leak the information. To get the news out on her own terms, de Jager published the video and told her story."When I was younger, I was born in the wrong body, which means that I am transgender. It's so surreal saying this. Filming this video is scary, but it feels so liberating and freeing. I've been wanting to share this side of myself to all of you for so long, but I could never figure out the timing.
De Jager went on to add that the people threatening to leak her story were "evil" and saying that she was "frightened" about what could happen if everything was on the internet before she was ready to come forward with it herself. She said that the situation was "vile" and "gross" and that she knew the blackmailers were watching. Instead of giving in, she explains, she said that she was living her truth.
"I have been blackmailed by people that wanted to "leak" my story to the press, and at first, it was frightening. It was frightening to know that there are people out there that are so evil, that they can't respect someone's true identity. It is vile, and it is gross. And I know you are watching this.
