I had no idea who she was until her name popped up in my news feed for some reason.

Who is Marina Joyce?

Marina Joyce is a YouTube fashion blogger who does video blogs of makeup tutorials and clothing brands.

What happened to her?

• Well, according to the internet, Marina Joyce may be in serious trouble. Her latest video shows her in a pastel doll-styled dress looking out of her mind. At 0:13 seconds in the video, a subtle murmer can be heard over her monologue. Fans claim she is whispering "help me." There are tons of videos and articles talking about it.

• International Business Times wrote "What Happened To Marina Joyce? YouTuber Apparently Whispers ‘Save Me’ Amid Abuse, Drug Rumors"

• She later responded to fans in a Tweet telling them she is perfectly fine. https://twitter.com/MarinaJoyce7/status/757670474109358080

• There is a #SaveMarinaJoyce hashtag on Twitter at the moment as well.

• LolCowFarm has a thread discussing the latest videos and theories here

This is where it gets a bit creepy

If you look at the videos of Marina Joyce found on those news sites, it's obvious that she has bruises and isn't acting like a normal human being. But that isn't creepy, it's sad. What is creepy is this tweet:

• https://twitter.com/MarinaJoyce7/status/758072430145462273

• Screenshot in case it gets deleted

• Bring a friend so you don't get lost?

• This is the Facebook page for the event.

• Then there is this tweet: https://twitter.com/foreignhotlines/status/758155296544059392

  • This is most likely fake but nonetheless it adds to the conspiracy that it's all a big trap.

• Here is the creepy guy that's mentioned on the LolCowFarms thread.

  • "Summer"

This could all be a marketing ploy for Joyce to gain a larger fanbase but take a look for yourself and keep me updated on any further developments.

EDIT: I added the LolCow link

UPDATE: SNOPES POSTED AN ARTICLE ON IT

UPDATE: VIDEO FROM THIS MORNING.

She claims her bruises were from an "accident" but isn't clear what type of accident. It does look like she isn't being held by ISIS so Abu Bakr al-Bagdadi will have to find his own Khaleesi. She seems aloof in the video.
