"i was 20, i didnt know plantations were bad" is SENDING ME 💀

Idk who pookie but I guess I’ll find out

So during their story time of how they met... when Jett said that Campbell just wanted the best for "all good people" and not just PEOPLE. That's when I knew.

I THOUGHT THE TITLE MEANT YHE GUY WHO CALLS EVERYONE POOKIE I WAS SO SCARED.

As a lady from Alabama, the "roots" were obvious, and digging wasn't required.

The sun is out in the UK? IMPOSSIBLE

as someone from the united states south and lived there for like 20+ years of my life, i sat here trying to figure out where the heck their accents were from. (edit) the Antebellum (which is what i think you were trying to say) is a romanticized idea of pre-civil war south, think southern plantation society which is what that party seemed it was portraying. and Confederate flags are sort of the same vein of people who use and carry them romanticize this idea of "the rebellious south" which is just another way of saying they're racist. It's not southern pride, you're using the symbol of a war that the south fought to keep slave labor. both their families posting trump and confederate flag support and them BEING in the photos and liking them etc kinda tells me that at best they're not disapproving and more likely they support it. Also DO NOT live in the outer banks if you don't fuck with tropical storms or hurricanes there's literally no where to go there if one hits you have to leave you will be under water lol.

Some people in the south defend the Confederate flag by saying it represented a time the South fought for "state rights."" However, that argument is quickly destroyed when you learn the South used the "states rights" to support expanding slavery into newly created states. So the argument was whether a state should have slavery or not. South said yes, it was their right to expand slavery and the North said no, we need to end slavery. Funny enough, I've seen more Confederate flags in the border states (the states between the deep south and the north) than I have in the deep South.

So I’m from TN and did pageants growning up. So I’ve known who Campbell is since college because she also competed in pageants even though she’s form IL. The pageant system is across the country but a small circle of people so you hear peoples names through the grape vine. But I started following her very early on in her influencing career. They’ve been married for a few years now and have always referred to each as pookie and Jett has always treated Campbell like that even when she had a small following. He’s always been on her instagram, it’s definitely more now because of them blowing up. She also had a marketing job and didn’t quit until she made the same salary influencing that she made at her job. And mind you Jett was still in a financially great spot and she didn’t need to work nor wait to quit her job. I am from TN and went to the University of Tennessee and was in a “white” sorority as a black woman. I was in college at the same time as Campbell 2009-2914 and I can say the atmosphere of a SEC school fraternity culture, the confederate flag is something that a lot of people unfortunately put up. I’m not saying it’s right. It always made me uncomfortable to walk into frats and someone had it up on their wall. I’m not making excuses because people need to educate themselves but in school they don’t even teach slavery properly so most of the time, especially college kids don’t even understand the connection. They think it’s southern pride. I know that sounds dumb but I can tell you I’ve had the conversation with these type of guys and they are clueless. And where she went Ole Miss is notorious for having the flag all over the place. I mean Mississippi still had the confederate flag as part of their state flag up until 2021. Now in other contexts, definitely don’t talk to anyone who’s flying one of those. And as for the antebellum dresses that from a fraternity event form the fraternity KA called Old South. It’s exactly what it sounds like. Dressing up as if you were attending and civil war era ball. UTs KA chapter stopped doing it I think a year or so before I graduated and other campus only stopped doing old south parties a few years ago. As for the Trump stuff, a lot of white people in the south live in a bubble and a lot of them want to stay ignorant. I moved to DC as soon as I could get out. What I’ve found from having conversations with people who support him, it’s either a lack of empathy because you don’t care or because you don’t know anything outside of your bubble. Again schools down there teach a very watered down version of actual history.

You’d be surprised at how many southerners are proud of their history. A lot of them see nothing wrong with the antebellum theme, or similar ideas. (For reference, I grew up in the north and went to college in the south and have lived in the south since then - 10 years total)

the name pookie sends me lmao. I had a family friend that was a few years younger and when she was like, 2-4 she would only answer to pookie. years later we went to the same uni and around a bunch of friends that didn't know that we knew each other years ago I accidentally called her pookie out of habit and everyone looked at me like I was crazy

They always gave me weird vibes so unfortunately no surprises here

ALSO ole miss has a reputation for being mad racist, their mascot is literally the "rebels" (aka a rebelling confederate soldier)

campbell is a cute name but it’s a huge soup company in usa lol

A few years ago, the winner of the bachelor had old antebellum photos resurface & I figured everyone knew better by now.

The confederate flag has become synonymous with people who still hold racist beliefs. No matter what anyone else may say, that is the impression people get when they see someone using that flag. Mississippi is not known for having very progressive views on anything. Ever. It's one of the states that is still well known to have sundown towns (not that those don't exist in othet states) which are towns that do not treat anyone non-white with anything other than disdain and or hostility, overt or covert.

Every time I hear the guy say anything, I can’t help but hear Josh Duggars voice.

“Pookie” is a term popularised by African American ppl. This white man just happened to take it and run, he didn’t “popularise” it🥴🥰

You trying to do the Southern accent literally sent me over the moon. Please humor us with a longer sample that is more than a word or two

As an American I am not surprised by any of this with pookie and jet- born and raised in the south and more people that I know have done this kind of stuff than they’d like to admit 💀 whether they would or not is another question but it’s very normalized even now in present day at least where I live.

I'm Southern and I've never heard of these people. I've also never seen anyone who talks or acts like Jet in my life, lol. Maybe Mississippi frat boy? Not to be cruel, but they seem so boring? As it isn't very entertaining, lol. Upper South states have moved on past these things in most cases. Here, everyone knows Deep South places can still be very... old school and very unapologetic about it.

I can never imagine myself thinking I'm the luckiest girl on earth because of a bag. A house maybe, but not a bag.

about the prenup clause, i'm no lawyer but i researched a lot about prenups for my own reasons and in most places around the US, that kind of clause in a prenup contract are thrown out and cannot be enforced. He could still put it in the contract and that could feel like it is pressuring to her, but in the event of a divorce, if e tried to say that she gets nothing because her appearance wasnt up to his standards, a judge would call him an idiot and throw it out

As a black women a white man taking credit for Pookie even though we’ve said it for decades is crazy to me Note: this is nothing about Angelika. She’s great.

Who the hell would buy a 38k purse?!? Holy shit, I just looked up the price of the Birkin purse. That's a car!

His name is Jet.. enough said 😅

As a southerner, just watching these videos you can deffo tell this couple has *that vibe* As someone who’s not deemed “the norm” for southern states (i.e. I’m bi, goth, etc) I’ve definitely had to sus out people’s auras in order to figure out if I’m in a safe space as a survival tactic, if that makes sense. All that being said if I saw either of them walking down the sidewalk in my direction I’d definitely cross the street just to avoid them.

up untill the 16-minute mark i was very confused, while i am from the south and i do LOVE the STYLE of the Antebellum dress and plantation-style homes i fully recognize what that means and would never support the ideals they once stood for. that being said the Confederate flag gives me the ick and that people still fly it as "Southern pride" is foolish its not something to be proud of. to recognize it and talk about what happened is valid and important, but having PRIDE in what happened is none of those things. you can be a proud Southerner and not romanticize such a horrible dark time in US history. we literally went to war over it and those ideals lost, i don't understand why you would want to stand proud under a flag that stands for slavery. And maybe if they were wearing historical recreation of those dresses it might feel different but those looked like party city costumes and felt mocking, it did not feel like they were wearing those dresses because they liked the style and look, wich in the historical Recreation community is the ONLY reason their worn.

Pookie? That was my younger sister's childhood nickname. We stopped calling her that when she entered middle school. Weird as hell hearing a grown woman called that. 💀

Black American here. Not shocking at all, they are gonna do it. They are gonna apologize. They are gonna do it again behind closed doors. They do very much know better, this is how they are raised. They do not care. So you either agree or you don’t. It wouldn’t be surprising if he does not actually treat her well. That is very common with southern marriages. Nice nasty. Whatever to look good for the Public. We do not know these people so honestly we even really cares. That’s my 2 cent

So I’m not only an American from the south, I also went to Ole Miss for college and was in a sorority(but did NOT go to Old South which is what the ball was called) it’s crazy because even 10 years ago when I started college we all knew that the Old South ball that was put on was weird as heck. What always struck me as super weird is that that fraternity would have Black members and they would participate in the ball even though every other POC was a server. I don’t see how you could put your own ‘brothers’ in that situation and not see anything wrong

As someone from Mississippi that grew up close to Ole Miss, they’re “good ole boy” vibes.

I'm pretty sure pookie is AAVE and not popularized by him

loveee you angelica but he did NOT popularize the word pookie

hiiiii viewer from the south here. My parents immigrated to the south from east europe so i kind of have an interesting perspective being raised here my whole life and gone to a college in the south! its crazy to say but A LOT of people who live here fall under two camps: totally cool with confederates/idealizing the confederacy or indifferent/completely ignorant to the actual history (usually due to the fact that the daughters of the confederacy lobbied our government to change our textbooks so most schools in the south get different text books than kids from the north!!!). theres ton of other people who dont care as much or just grew up knowing that confederacy/slavery/racism in general is bad! Unfortunately there’s so many conservatives in power here that it can make it difficult to speak up against authority figures and go against restrictive teaching policies. my take is that its bad. by 20 everyone should know. we live and grow up surrounded by the consequences of ending reconstruction and the legacy slavery has left behind. im sure both of them have had hundreds of chances to learn and change their views, but i highly doubt it if they havent made an extremely PUBLIC statement that clarifies their current status. But its also sad to see so many families that suffer and are damaged by the chronic problems in our education system (in addition to white privilege + apathy for others)

i was not expecting gods holy raises of light in the intro. Also i LOVE that eyeshadow on you. the champagne colour makes the blue pop.

The best way to think of these types of parties would be if Germany universities threw N*zi themed parties which romantisied about that time in history. Ignoring what actually happened. Difference is unlike America Germany removed all traces of what went on errected monuments to remember the victims not the purpitrators where as in America they errected statues celibrating what went on and a lot of those statues went up years after the war. Most went up during the time of the civil rights movment when people of colour were fighting for equality. It was a way to remind them of their place. Remember all the arguments that when around when statues of confederate soldiers were being removed as it not only glorified slave ownership but also a point in time when one part of the country tried to over throw the other.

I kind of have to give her the benefit of the doubt on the Antebellum parties. I think she was ignorant. Many schools, not just in the South, teach that the Civil War was about states' rights, not slavery. And they downplay or leave out a lot of information that makes our country "look bad." So to her, she was just going to a party that all her friends were going to. I am not saying those parties aren't problematic AF, but many American high school and college-aged kids really do not know any better. This ignorance can be even worse if they grew up in a middle class or wealthy area because many of those places are still basically segregated. I grew up in a conservative middle-class suburb in Ohio (not the South, but an isolated mostly white community) and was definitely ignorant until I educated myself.

Im new and i just noticed you book channel! I'm so excited to watch those videos.

This is why i hate tiktok couples they pretend to have the perfect relationship, lol😂

I read it as Pookie as in Pokimane and i was "hum... 🤔"

Depending on what year they got married that hot crazy scale thing is straight out of an episode of How I Met Your Mother. I will never understand how some men watched that show and decided to make Barney Stinson their whole personality.

Goalsss, got the flight attendant part down now I need a wealthy man to approach me😭😭😭

Girl. I’m going into the SOUTH tomorrow. Like they were farmers for generations. They all have two names. My great aunt on my grandma’s side is the sister of my great great aunt on my grandfather’s side. 🤣 Welcome to the south.

As an american in the south (not from, just in) the idea of antebellem and the idea of slavery are two different ideas. Historically theyre connected just like how the 1940s will always be connected with WWII but they are technically different. Im not saying she was in the right to go to one of those parties, but i do think slavery is not at the forefront of your mind when attending an antebellum party. And lets be real, college students will do just about anything to get some alcohol, especially if its free. I have to give her the benefit of the doubt on that one. Its not cool she did that, but it's not unreasonable to think she really was ignorant to what she was doing

I had no idea who these people even were. I think one of their videos briefly crossed my fyp but I was like "nope. straight couple. bye." and immediately skipped it. I don't know if its because I'm older now or just have different interests, but investing my time in keeping up with the lives of people I genuinely do not know holds no interest for me. Like back when I was in high school I was ALWAYS up to date with what One Direction were doing but now, I only know what goes on if it happens to pop up on my tumblr dash or becomes huge news that spans multiple platforms. It's not that I don't care about them bc I genuinely still love all the boys. I'm just more focused and too busy working on whats going on in my own life to pay attention to someone else's.

I’m born and raised in Tennessee, and I don’t have much of an accent at all, to the point that when I was in after school care when I was like 9, one of the workers asked me where up north I was from?? The only times it really pops up is in my customer service voice, and when I’m angry or being sarcastic

lighting was a jumpscare but your eyes look gorgeous so W‼️‼️

I didn’t know about pookie till I seen her in the daily mail for being called out lmao

Idk what you did differently with the makeup but you look even more gorgeous than usual ❤

anyone who says the don’t understand the impact of the confederate flag knows exactly what it meant and didn’t care

Your makeup is stunning!!!!

I didnt want my gut feeling to be correct, but there it is. Id never heard of them before, but the moment I saw them-- Ew. Never ignore icky vibes! No matter how pretty the luxury goods are!!

To me, "Pookie" is the name of the stuffed bear Garfield sleeps with.

15:02 i loved your southern accent omg!! Crazy to think British people also do American accents like we do!!!!

American southerner here: (necessary background info- I did not GROW UP in the south but I did go to high school and college here) okay, so I would never ever defend slave owners for one thing. Need to say that. But honestly, I learned about the Antebellum period separate from slavery (which speaks to the education system in VOLUMES). I was told to join a community service group called “the belles” in which you just show up and look pretty and tell guests where to go all day IN ANTEBELLUM DRESSES (it’s required) because it would look good on my college applications and future resumes. Knowing nothing about the period, I did get rejected for not having southern heritage. I was mad I wasn’t allowed to support my community, but watching this video, I realize it was a blessing. I had no idea what went with this time period. I knew about the confederate flag and if someone handed me one and said “here, wear this, and do community service” I would have been like “oh HECK no” but this pretty dress essentially being the same thing and I had no idea and wanted to join. I didn’t officially learn why it was a problem until Lady Antebellum changed their name to Lady A. I couldn’t figure out why, as it was just a time period - like the Victorian period or something. I did some research and heard debates and I was like “oh. This is bad. And not even my problem to speak on to begin with.” So not being FROM the south, I don’t get too fired up when I see it (as I said, these dresses are still around and these parties do still happen - I remember in high school all my friends wanted to go to these parties at the college near us) but I also don’t support or condone it. I kinda just roll my eyes and move on. As for Pookie, I’m not sure when she went to ole Miss, but if it was 8 or so years ago, this was absolutely the normal culture and if she had the same sort of education I had, she would not have thought twice about it. Ignorance is not an excuse, but if you think about being invited to a 50s party or a hippie party, you probably wouldn’t do tons of research for that either. Just find a costume and buy some booze and show up. I believe it’s in the past for her and we need to focus on if she’s okay in her marriage now.

I took my bf to an expensive steak dinner for his birthday, it was the same night as a big game he bet on, and I was totally fine with him watching it on his iPhone. We watched together and chatted about it. If the roles were switched and something live that I bet on or even just wanted to watch was on, I’d want them to let me. He asked me first though to be fair!

21 SECONDS ??? IM SO EARLY WOAH

You can find bad shite about every single influencer/person if you look hard enough as bad as everything is I find it funny that people pick a part others lives when if they were influencers their lives would be picked apart and criticized just as much

Where is the cream jumper from in your sponsor bit?

The sun does wonders for your skin you look GLOWING 🥰

I love the North Carolina appreciation, I’ve lived here my whole life and I’m going to college in the NC mountains next semester. It’s a really beautiful state

I love watching your videos about people I've never heard of. Interesting things I would have never known otherwise ♥ I will say living in the North or South of the US has very little, if anything, to do with their likeability. 😊

As a black American, rich white people regardless of their southern ties give me the ick. None of this really surprised me because everything about their dynamic is expected in the south. That’s the culture. That’s the lifestyle. Like many things, antebellum themed parties are a thing many people will deny they knew were wrong even though people in 2012 and earlier were asking for it to stop.

i have never been this early oh my god 😭🩷

as someone from deep south louisiana it’s so funny to see you romanticizing the south

The guy seems a bit gross and they seem to be stereotypical white religious privileged southern people. Are everyone in the south like Pookie and whatshisface? No. Are there people there who continue to dig in that the South will rise again and it was about states rights, not slavery? If you are in university, you are old enough to know that a slavery theme is wrong. I'm Canadian, so I am not super knowledgable, but I know some things. I would imagine he's not as nice to her as he appears on camera.

As a north Carolinan I agree OBX is beautiful. Love taking a day trip out

US university is done by years. You go for 2 years in basic college courses and you get an associates degree. Afterwards you pick a field and continue going to school for that specific education (or pick before starting and blend the basic classes with the career based classes). Depending on the job you can need a bachelors degree (associates + 2 years =4 years), a masters degree (associates + 4 years = 6 years), and a doctorate (associates + 6 years =8 years). Some examples are an architect gets a bachelor degree, a school teacher gets a masters, and a doctor gets a doctorate.

First and last time I heard the word "pookie" was in "The Rent". I was astinished to hear somebody actually unironically use it!

I have never seen Angelika in this much sunlight

Omfg my partner was just trying to explain pookie to me and I was lost. I'm so glad I'm going to be told what it is by an experience.

i love you trying to say fire in a southern accent 🥲

For me, I have to be able to confirm someone is what I consider to be a good person before I support them, which is why I’m fully in support of researching someone who is well known online. Sure, people can change (I sure have) but that doesn’t mean that everyone does, & I would like to know as much as I can about someone before I contribute to their success. 🤷🏻‍♀️

i’m glad to say i never knew who this was, and not that i do, i’m not so glad

Angelika as someone who was born and raised in North Carolina I can promise you you don’t wanna live here. The Outer Banks are gorgeous but it’s not worth living there with such a high risk for hurricanes and tropical storms. Honestly so shocked you even mentioned wanting to live in the Carolinas, I feel like we’re the forgotten states😭😅

I got so scared I thought this was about Prayag

Pookie is a nickname for my cat😹

I thought Pookie was Garfields stuffed bear hmm

I feel like it’s kind of rule of thumb when a guy has to be this over the top and public about romantic gestures, he’s probably not that great to her for real. 🙃😅

Just realising i have no idea who these ppl are but saw Jessie Lee's parody of 'That one couple on tiktok' and now I know who it was about....

My dad's family is in North Carolina. It's a very beautiful area.

As a southerner from Savannah, Georgia, you can do a southern accent all you want. Everyone makes fun of each other’s accents 24/7. It’s fun and in good heart. I thought your’s was pretty dang good lol.

What lipstick shade are you wearing?

Body language matters. The whole time she was speaking on how they met and she was saying how they complete each other and so much alike, Jet was shaking his head no.

His entire idea of love is throwing brands at her and then we find out he isn't actually nice to her?? You don't say!

12:19 let me die 😭 why is this so sweeeet

I THOUGHT THIS WAS ABOUT PRAYAG AND MY HEART SANK

i can never take people saying "pookie" as a term of endearment seriously because here it's a slang word for "snitch" (short form of the word "poucave") and it was popularized by the song "pookie" (aya nakamura) which is a song about someone being a snitch😭😭

Me knowing nothing and confused on all of the disclaimers. Moment I see the fits and everything: oh. OH.

Just to summarize the degrees he has: in the US we have 13 years of “Grade School” (Kindergarten through 12th grade) the there’s 4 years of an “Undergraduate/Bachelors Degree” and then after you have a Bachelors Degree you are able to apply for and attend graduate school for a Masters degree such as an MBA which is usually 2-3 years long. ALSO after your undergraduate degree you can apply for Law School, which is typically 3-4 years. So this guy has at minimum of 9 years of University/Higher education, but probably more like 10-11. 😳 Impressive even if he sucks!

Re the parties: you hit the nail on the head with people are just there to get drunk. And as someone well out of my 20s lemme tell you there is still plenty of "common sense" dumb when one is in college, esp with something like that kind of party which I would bet money were long running annual frat parties so they were considered normal and so you either just didn't question the theme or potentially if she was in a sorority she could have been shunned for skipping (and she was clearly on the trophy wife career path so being shunned from the sorority would be an absolute no go). So like yeah they are cringe photos but if it was just the questionably themed parties and she doesn't continue to go to events like that then it can be considered a very cringe past event. Much like how back in the 00s the r word and fat shaming and stalker paparazzi were considered fine and normal.

i don't know how old "pookie" is but I'm 34. and at 20 I knew those kinds of parties were wrong even though it wasn't talked about so openly the way it is now. She knew it was wrong and she did it anyway.

Hearing you want to live in North or South Carolina as someone who grew up here was wild 😂

Thanks for the NordVPN discount for le piscesianas ❤ ♓

I'm in the US, I'm unfazed by the political stuff, but immediately got controlling vibes from Jett.

Also, again as a southerner, I wish I had YOUR accent. Mine is ugly. 😂😭

as someone who was raised in Louisiana and currently lives in Arkansas, and is extremely anti-racism- i can say that being from the south is no excuse for racism. in general- i hate when people use the "it's just southern pride" and "this is how we do things in the south" excuses. it's bullshit- especially in 2024, with information at our fingertips. you know if something has racist undertones. and if you weren't sure you could find out with a quick google search.

If she is from northern Mississippi then all this makes sense. My husband is from that area and the people there are some of the most shallow, superficial people I’ve ever met.

I was born and raised in southern Arkansas and i’ve never heard of those Antebellum parties so I’m tempted to say people are trying to make them sound more common than they actually are, or maybe i’ve just been lucky to never hear about them 😭 it’s definitely not a good look
