Colleen Ballinger ends her YouTube hiatus after just 2 weeks
Controversial YouTuber Colleen Ballinger has returned to the platform, after announcing her hiatus just two weeks ago.
On February 27, popular YouTuber and television personality Colleen Ballinger announced atemporary break from content creation, citing the need to “heal in a million different ways.”

But the hiatus, which mainly affected her vlogging on her Colleen Vlogs channel, was short-lived. On March 10, just two weeks later, she uploaded a new 16-minute vlog titled “I’M BAAAAACK!”
In the video, Ballinger opened up about health issues that contributed to her absence, revealing that she had been hospitalized. “I thought I would only stop vlogging for a few days, maybe a week tops. But then, my body broke, and the sun just came back,” she shared.

“The sun was like, ‘Oh, we’re talking about how you got really hurt and went to the hospital? I’m in. I wanna hear about this tea.’ I’ll save that story for another day.”
She elaborated further, explaining that physical pain had made her unable to work or return to the internet as quickly as she had planned.

“That prevented me from editing anymore,” she shared. “When I thought I was gonna come back to the internet, I actually couldn’t come back to the internet because I couldn’t work, and I was in pain.”
