She faked it until she made it and it worked that’s what I’m shook about taking major notes
Lmao slay
I’m so proud of her and I’m more even prouder to say that I’ve been a fan since she had Her brick eyebrows like this has been a journey and I know my girl is gonna be a bigger star ⭐️
not the brick eyebrows! lol true fan! lol
Im so proud for Amber! I like many have been with her since the beginning and it’s always so pleasant to see her complete her goal board every year 🥺🥺🥺
Same 👏🏻👏🏻
She has been like a big sister for the past 4 years for me. So proud to see her growing but still being Amber. My forever inspiration 💗
👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻
Literally some of the best things I’ve heard she’s so inspiring so humble and so genuine I love her and would love to meet her again some day 😩😩
love how she’s ACTUALLY self made ⭐👏🏼
Same 👏🏻👏🏻
Stunning 😍
She came from a decently seemingly middle class family. Its not like she was dead poor. She went to pepperdine for crying out loud
@@lilbabytears ur such a fan 😂 u must have watched her draw my life video. so u know that her childhood aside, she still *was* dead broke and took up *multiple* side jobs to make ends met. She 100% has a selfmade CAREER. Her dedication and creativity is what brought her to where she is now. There’s enough room for everyone to be successful, no need to be jealous. Go watch some more of her videos fan😂maybe you’ll get inspired.
@@boouwhore6391 thanks for reading my comment!
Amber is literally the role model I didn’t know I could have as an adult. I’m so happy she’s being interviewed by Forbes!!
She’s taught so many things to so many women, girls and all different generations it’s inspiring. She deserves this and so much more
Same 👏🏻👏🏻
Being a veteran, you’d think she’d encounter scandals but since she’s always been honest and true to herself and simply minding her own business and living her best life, I MUST SAY KUDOS. You do you, Amber! Love your personality sm <3
She has had “scandals” but it’s mainly people coming up with random stuff to hate her for; being hyper sexual, “having a sugar daddy” and lying about it, her fast fashion collab with meshki. People are just bored and jealous I guess.
Like people say “if you tell the truth then you don’t have to think up story’s ” I love how 100% authentic she is, also she should definitely play a characters voice in a cartoon or something!! 😆
She had a scandal because she collaborated with Shein (Fast Fashion Brand). Many people complained that she just cared about the money and not the environment. She is honest, yes, because it is all about money for her, and it always has been, and she is honest about that. This is not me hating on Amber, I mean, who would not take a lucrative deal like this, but yeah, she is not scandal-free.
People are pathetic and hate on women for anything
@@achelle_ smh people are so sensitive and haters
I love seeing her bubbly self but I really love this more serious Amber in these interviews. This is no fluke, she knew what she was doing and she went for it. She a baddie!
Same!!
I’m 66 and have been watching Amber since her first video was suggested many years ago. She reminds me of myself at her age and it thrills me to see a young woman grow and change into the wonderful woman she has become. In reading the comments others leave for her, anyone can see she is inspiring to so many. She has her head together and I wish for her the best. Thank you for interviewing her and showing Forbes support for women. Well done.
Susan you’re a cool lady. I hope you’re happy in life !!!!
❤️❤️❤️
Awww this is so precious🥺🥰
Acting and music and the arts in general were not taken seriously at first and still aren’t in some countries. So of course YouTube would not be taken seriously right away. All YouTubers should be proud. It’s a lot of work that goes unseen. I’m so happy for Amber making and manifesting all her dreams into reality.
The thing that I admire the most in Amber is the way she made her dream life into a reality. She seems genuinely happy. She teaches us to run towards our dreams like the floor is on fire. She stays humble and is always real in her videos. That’s what’s attracting people to her. She teaches us to go for our dreams doesn’t matter how crazy it may sound. Her success story gives us hope.
Same 👏🏻👏🏻
Amber is the definition of true feminism and the power of women without ever sliding down the toxicity side or degrading the opposite sex. She is showing the weapons of a woman without manipulating men or people, she is touching the deepest parts of human soul and inspiring people to give a chance to their passion.
I agree!
👏🏻👏🏻
What the f are you talking about ?!!!
@@smileysel7113 which part of my English sentence offends you? Do you need to read it again?
Definitely 😍🫶🏼
Omg this is on her manifestation board. 🥺 Forbes. She did it! we can do it also. I remember she said everytime at the end of her vlogs.
“What if it wasn’t come true?
But what if does? “❤️🙏🏻
Same 👏🏻👏🏻
