That’s not all: the trailer even features Dawson’s proposal to fiance Ryland Adams, as well as the hashtag “#ShaneDawsonIsOverParty” and clips of both Dawson and Star shedding a few tears.

In what was originally named “The Ugly Side of the Beauty World,” it seems that Dawson’s upcoming series will feature both the “beautiful” and the “ugly” sides of YouTube’s beauty community, likely discussing the drama around James Charles and the controversy surrounding Dawson’s past podcasts.
