For a content creator, she really doesn’t understand who pays the bills.
Your audience, Chantal. YOUR AUDIENCE PAYS YOUR BILLS. If you are a creator, then you depend on pleasing your audience to pay your bills.
A stand-up comedian doesn’t get to say “I just want to stand up and read my shopping list out loud because I enjoy it. You don’t get to complain! If you don’t like it, leave!”
They will lose their audience if they do that. And people watching them WILL complain. and they will attract a new audience of people who specifically are there to make fun of them, and if they don’t go back to comedy, then they are stuck amusing the people making fun of them, or losing the job and their livelihood.
You create content and need an audience to get paid. You depend on your audience to pay your bills and “I want to do whatever I feel like and get paid to film it” is not a business model. If you piss off your audience, ask them for accountability then turn around and pull the rug out from under them over and over, yeah, they will complain.
A real creator knows they have a relationship with their audience, and does their best to nurture and grow it and not betray its trust.
