π πHelp Pippsqueaks! I've been cancelled!πππππ
Hi Pippsqueaks...it's me...ya girl...Princess Pipp Petals...possibly for the very last time because...
...I'VE BEEN CANCELLED!!!
I found out...the news...a while ago...but haven't been able to tell you...until now...that the news is public. It was so hard...to hear the rumors that have been going around, and not being able to say anything...because I care about you Pippsqueaks...I really do...and it breaks my heart to see you all so sad to see me go.
Okay. Be strong. You can do this.
Don't worry Pippsqueaks...I...this isn't the end...I'm not going anywhere! But I'll need more of your support to keep me going now, and anything helps! Subscribe to my Pony-treon! Buy the last album that will be released! Donate to my livestreams! Or just...give me a HUG! Give me a reason to live! I don't even need the money ~~I'm swimming in royal slush fund~~ I JUST WANT VALIDATIONNNNNN...AHHHH is this what it feels like to get old!? Is this what it feels like to have a waning career!?
Maybe you don't quite understand. See. You ponies...think that being a celebrity is just about YOUR talent and how special YOU are? That's just part of the equation. It takes a whole support team to create a celebrity. You're just one part of the machine. You need a platform to show the world how great you are...whether it's a movie, reality TV show, or short form videos. You need publicists who will schedule events and find opportunities for you. Without that team...the whole support collapses...and you're quite literally just a pony hanging on a wire.
Being a celebrity...isn't what you think it is...it comes with SO much baggage...it feels...imprisoning at times.
So maybe in a sense...being cancelled is a blessing in disguise. A chance at freedom, right!? A chance to...get into my other hobbies more! Yeah! I'll get to spend more time at Mane Melody, and with my dear sisters Zipp and Misty...
Or, that's all just me imbibing myself with COPE, because I want to be FAMOUSSSSS AND I DON'T CARRRRRE
What have I done to deserve this!? Am I not...popular enough? Am I not selling enough merch? We sold out of phone lanyards! I'm sold out of all preorders for my Gamer Girl Down Blanket!
Was it the crypto? I'll bet it was the crypto. ~~Pippcoin has collapsed~~ I'm sorry...I'm sorry for being a bad influence...ahhhh...
Why me!? This kind of thing happens to...BAD ponies! CRIMINALS, or ABUSERS! I'm not a bad pony! So what if I had a heavy metal phase!? Do you want to know what Pinkie Pie did in HER dark past!? Sunny's done the research, ok!? She found this reference site called..."Boo-roo" something...and lemme say it's WAYYYY worse than me! Or Zipp, or Hitch, or Sunny, or Izzy, or Misty...and WE get canceled!?
And speaking of Boo-roo, why are you booing us on stage!? What have we ever done to you!? You wanna see Twilight's hologram instead!? Is that it!? Is she prettier than me!? That ridiculous edgy pink-highlight-mane egghead who smells like old books and panic-attack-sweat all of the time!?
Sorry. I'm jealous, ok...!?
It's not enough. I'm not enough. I'm a PRINCESS, POP STAR, YOUTH ICON and I'm still not enough. Zipp's a PRINCESS and DETECTIVE she's still not enough. Hitch is a SHERIFF and DRAGON DAD and he's not enough. Sunny's an ALICORN and she's not enough. Izzy's a CREATIVE GENIUS and she's not enough. Misty ESCAPED A TOXIC FAMILY LIFE LED BY A RUTHLESS EVIL ALICORN...Misty is such a strong, courageous pony...and you BOO her!?
I'm sorry, but how DARE YOU!?
(What have I got to lose? I'm cancelled anyway so I might as well say out my true feelings...)
Don't you want to know what happens to mom and Alphabittle!? Don't you want to know what happens to Comet? Don't you want to know what happens to Allura?! She and I actually challenge each other to an epic guitar battle, but YOU WOULD NEVER KNOW THAT, WOULD YOU!? All because we've been cancelled...!!!113212`~!~!!!@#
Ugh. I'm sore from typing. And my keyboard is glitching out...from my TEARRRRRRRSSSSSS
...the thing is...being cancelled isn't death. I'll wake up to tomorrow and still be able to walk, fly, trot, even sing in the shower. I'll still even be pretty popular--like, I AM a Princess after all. It's just the feeling that...I've been rejected...that I thought I could become a famous singer by just hard work and putting my mind to it...and that that's not enough...that I'm getting CANCELLED...
...I feel like I just don't have control over my life. I feel like I don't have a say in my destiny. Now my only fame is...being born into the right family. Nopony cares about my singing...my charisma...my mane styling skills...the things I WORKED for...
...hard work my flank.
I...I didn't want this to be...the end...but it will be. I...accept it. No matter how hard I try...without my show...without my platform...I am just a pony. A short, midget, little pony who will never stand out amongst the crowd...
...I can't lie. I can't be strong anymore. I'm sorry. I'll just be a boring pony princess with no fans...no love...doomed to die an old royal mare...
Ponies...let me leave you...with 3 questions.
Will you miss me?
Will you always remember me?
Will you still listen to my songs?
If you say "no"...it's okay...maybe I need to learn that...the world isn't all just about me and MY achievements...it's about the ponies close to me, and dear to me. Zipp...Misty...Hitch...Sunny...Izzy...and don't forget Jazz and Rocky...my dear Mane Melody colleagues...
...I wouldn't have ever met all these ponies without my fame. And even though we've been cancelled...we've been cancelled together.
Or maybe this is just me spewing more cope. IDK. Maybe this is just temporary. Maybe I'll go back to being sad tomorrow. At least...I won't be alone anymore.
So goodbye, Pippsqueaks. You won't know all the amazing things we're going to do next. The new songs that I'm cooking up. Izzy's next bright unicycling idea. The next mystery Zipp finds to solve. But we will know. Me and my friends will know. And that's okay for me.
But hey, if any of you all are still curious about how my life is going tomorrow, next month, or years from now...just ask. I'll always be happy to tell you~
Pipp Pipp hooray for the last time,
