August 10, 2014 was the TCA's, and many web stars including Nash Grier, Jack&Jack, Bethany Mota, Tyler Oakley and Smosh attended. Many YouTubers and Viners attended. This is to explain why the TCA's are rigged.
1. Teen Choice Awards producers only used YouTubers and Viners to gain audiences. It was proven that modern day teens are more into internet online social networking stars, than TV and movie stars. So obviously they had to include YouTubers and Viners, which was ridiculous. Yes, YouTubers do work hard and deserve to be recognized, but they were only used by TCA's to bring in publicity and the Internet Stars fandoms. Most of which who didn't even know they were nominated for an award 6 days before the show. One of the category's, Male Web Star, Tyler Oakley won. A YouYube star on the site for 5 Years. After the show, Cameron Dallas tweeted:
The tweet was quickly deleted. Many YouTubers and Viners have already ranted on the TCA's behalf. Shane Dawson along with Jenna Marbles and Carter Reynolds. The TCA's are definetley rigged.
2. Another annoying event that happened is that when the award show ended, the producers did not release the winner of the Web Gaming Award. Even though PewDiePie obviously won, and although he didnt care really about the award, his 'Bros' were pissed. Think about it. PewDiePie is the No.1 subscribed on YouTube, and they put him in an award so his fans could watch. Same with other #TeamInternet stars. They made sure his viewers watched the show, but to a 'coincidence', the award was never announced on TV. His fans were furious. They started the hashtag, #PewdsDeservedThatAward. Soon, probably, TCA's will most likley put out a statement 'it was an accident'.
3. Even they say its rigged, at the end of every show, TCA's put:
It is all made on the generality. The votes barley counts. Fox representatives make the call, not the teens. To see more on how the Teen Choice Awards are bullshit check out #TeensDontHaveAChoice on twitter.

Summer In The City [SITC]
Summer In The City
[SITC]
The annual event of YouTubers meet and greets this time paired with a creator day to give intrepid young teens and too-old-to-be-there adults, an insight into what it's like to be a content creator.
The annual event of YouTubers meet and greets this time paired with a creator day to give intrepid young teens and too-old-to-be-there adults, an insight into what it's like to be a content creator.
But the main attraction is the Saturday meet and greets, people meeting their idols and inspirations, except this year there was a twist in how it'd all play out, for such YouTubers as Dan and Phil (danisnotonfire and AmazingPhil) a maximum of 300 tickets were given out a 30 minutes before the meet up was set to begin... but this didn't happen, as all tickets were given out as soon as people started entering the venue a whole hour and a half before the meet up, so many people were annoyed and devastated as they didn't get any chance of even being able to meet the people who brought them to buy tickets to this event. So their plan for organization turns into a complete shambles just as all the years before, it's kind of tradition in a way. Later on in the evening a series of live stage events such as Dan and Phil also joined by PJ (KickThePJ) which was streamed live happened along with a LGBT panel, and a live Q&A with Ben Cook and Tyler Oakley to which he admitted he ships Phan and he enjoys "the thought of tall men enjoying each other"
The Sunday however seemed to run more smoothly but with still many mishaps happening, and with less of a buzz, one of the main attractions of the day is Emma Blackery, well known for her loud mouth and opinions, shaving off all of her hair and Charlie McDonnell, a dinosaur of YouTube, who inspired a vast majority of the people you watch today, showing off this new short film Strangers In A Bed, which has public release tomorrow, and more meet and greets for YouTubers with smaller audiences.
This year’s Summer In The City has gone moderately better than those previous but there is still room for change and improvement to make this event as well known as other YouTube creator events that take place throughout the year.

Vidcon 2015 *DATES*
Attention, attention all YouTube viewers! An important announcement has been made. On August 8th, 2014, Vidcon 2015 dates were leaked on @HowlongUntilYT stating:
Many for about 2 hours believed Vidcon 2015 was July 23-25th, 2015. Then, two hours later that tweet was deleted and the account tweeted again saying:
'Speculations'. Many were furious. We can only HOPE that Vidcon are these dates, since they ARE the perfect time in the summer.
Big Screens for Big Webstars!
Well. it’s that time again. No, not your menstrual cycle, it’s time for more big time YouTubers to move on up into professional movie and television productions.
One of the biggest potential moves happening at the moment is Grace Helbig's move into the world of late night television. E! network, best known for it’s hit Keeping Up with the Kardashians and it’s long string of flop reality shows involving slightly famous personalities, has offered Helbig a place in their late night slot following the departure of our dear Chelsea Handler’s pop culture talk show Chelsea Lately. This is a move that could make or break Helbig. We all know she has the comedic skills to carry out a show of her own considering her regular YouTube material airs 5 days a week, but our concern is the television network. We’ve all heard horror stories about networks watering down comedians in order to deliver non-offensive material.Apart from her successful movie Camp Takota, web series #HeyUSA, guest appearance on @midnight on Comedy Central, and her 1.8 million YouTube subscribers, this is a new platform and experience for Grace. We’ll have to see how Grace makes this journey. We wish her the best of luck and we hope television doesn’t ruin her. Do your thing Helbig.
In related news, Shane Dawson’s movie release is approaching which is exciting and potentially terrifying. Shane is a great comedian and skit writer, however his movie making skills were never really explored, so we’ll have to see how this piece comes together. It could go either way, Shane feels pressured to fit every joke he can into a few hours and the audience feels suffocated with dick jokes, or it could be a fun, comedic film with a heartfelt message. We would also like to wish Shane luck with the rest of his career. Many dick jokes to come.

NEW FRED Loses His MIND
He did it. We should have seen it coming. Fred sold out. And
REALLY sold out. Not even the iCarly, nickelodeon, Fred the Movie selling out
stuff. He literally sold his channel. YouTube star Lucas Cruikshank sold his
FRED YouTube channel with over 2 million subscribers to Yuksung Corporation,
and if you’re thinking “that sounds Korean” I can assure you it is. I
personally was introduced to FRED back when he uploaded his “FRED on Halloween”
video. It only took me about 4 months to get sick of him, where some of his
fans have been loyal and dedicated for YEARS. What ticks us off the most about
all this is that Lucas didn’t announce or give an explanation regarding his
decision. The channel was sold for a disclosed amount of money {rumored to be
circa $60 million} and Cruikshank has avoided addressing the situation. There
are rumors circulating about it all being a set up, but I’ll get to that later.
And now to review this new Fred. Well, the initial thought
is that a small Korean child was abandoned by his parents and fed sugar and
helium in order to appeal to the audience, but he quickly explains. The “new
Fred” has a higher voice and more energy than the original Fred, because
apparently kids love that shit. The episode quickly turns into an extremely
similar scenario from an old Fred video, however with different dialogue and
now sponsoring Korean cereal, because apparently kids love that shit. New Fred
also quickly plugs his P.O. box, which I’m
sure, will be filled with death threats, anthrax, and lewd packages in a matter
of weeks. New Fred quickly dances to American hip hop music that I’m sure he’s
not familiar with, and continues to repeat the actions carried out by the
original Fred in another video. But of course not without being called
hilarious by the “new Judy” and being chased by the “New Kevin” because he’s
“new” and everything is “new” and I shouldn’t insult new things because this
blog is also “new”. *cough*. Anyways, new Fred returns home, sponsors some more
cereal that no one outside of Korea can buy, and strikes a fierce pose before
signing off. The most important part of this experience is the audience
reaction. Which was far less than thrilled.
As well as a negative reaction, the comments are also
circulating with rumors. Many believe the company was set up by Cruikshank in
order for him to build up an epic comeback; however I’m not SO sure that’s the
case. I think if Lucas were to do this, he would have made a bigger deal of
selling it in order to attract more attention to it. Avoiding the situation
could be to make the scenario more realistic, or it could just be a real
situation. I guess we’ll wait to find out. Hopefully not too long because Fred,
when your fans start to hit 40, you know you waited too long. When your fans
star growing facial hair, you know you waited too long. When your fans lose all
their baby teeth, you know you waited too long.

Kalel Kitten: The Vegan Chronicles 2014
Hello! TrueTubers here. This post is about Kalel Kitten and her vegan remarks and bullshit.
As it is known by basically EVERYONE now, Kalel Kitten is vegan, and has made her whipped boyfriend, Anthony Padilla, vegan too. She tweeted:
She has claimed to have never shamed anyone for not being vegan, and that on her fiance Anthony is vegan on his own choice. Later in the month she made a video of her sobbing and being a bitch. She made a encyclopedia on why being vegan is what the human race should do, and that leather products should stop being produced and animals left alone.
Kalel later went on a Contiki Roadtrip, a youtuber event where 10 youtubers explore Europe for about 10 days. When some WULAS vlogs came out, there was footage of Kalel eating crepes and other sweets and non vegan foods. Twitter blew up, and when she finally replied she stated:
You'd think she would try a little harder, or pack a snack? Guess not. PETA apparently came in contact with her to make aware of more people about cows. In her vegan preaching video, she said that if there was one wish she had for humanity it would be that all animals were freed from slaughter houses. Which, personally, to me, doesn't sound right at all. KALEL. THERE ARE BIGGER THINGS GOING ON I.E. THE WAR ON TERROR. But if its her wish to have some happy roaming cows and piglets graze the earth that's her choice.
Another recent tweet that was very interesting was this one:
REALLY? REALLY KALEL? She has claimed to not shame anyone for their vegan diet or what they eat, and that she would genuinely want people to eat healthier. But this is downright insensitive and offensive.
1.) She 99.9% did not know that man. If she did, she would have not tweeted about it. She is shaming him for eating what he wants, which is contradicting what she said earlier.
2.) She doesn't know that mans story. That man could have been struggling to be healthy and trying to turn around, but she wouldn't have known that. But since she just saw him eating probably a burger and fries, he's one of the fat Americans she sees below her.
3.) Kalel, can you really not understand it? Sorry we weren't born with a fast metabolism and slim features. Not only are some body types larger than others, but Type 1 Diabetes is genetic so she cant say anything. Shes basically saying "hey, if you're not slim, healthy, vegan, or know the whole U.S. Poll on obesity and how it is tragic, you are a shame to humanity and get out of my face."
Kalel needs to chill the fuck out. Just because everyone doesn't the same body type or eating habits as you does not mean you can easily judge them like that. If she ever has children or anything I do hope someone is to look over her child besides Anthony. I can just imagine the retired hooter, just making fun of her son/daughter. "Honey, you have more baby fat that usual... are you having two soy milk cartons instead of one at school?"
This isn't the first time. In one of Kalels early QueenBeeuty videos, she told viewers that she 'eats less' to lose weight and stay slim. Disgusting.
I have also seen a lot of Kalel fans being upset about their body shape because of it. If you are upset because of that, it is not you, it is just your 'idol' irrelevant incorrect statement. It is ridiculous how many girls I've seen upset that Kalel claimed being obese is 'tragic' and that people should change themselves around just to meet her standards. You girls don't need her. So don't listen to her. She has already lost 200 followers because of this incident.
For more coverage of Kalel and her vegan-ness, go check out her rant video where she cries over her milk not being soy and her salad having cheese in it!
