Thanks to Moxie Marketing and BHS’s Writer’s Club, we were able to have the opportunity to attend Girls Nite In: Presented by FullScreen Live. Girls Nite In featured YouTube stars MyLifeAsEva, Meredith Foster, Alisha Marie, Sierra Furtado, and Mia Stammer. Also, a special appearance was made by rising star Andie Case. The event was held in Patchogue, Long Island at The Emporium on October 8th. The venue was vast and perfect for this occasion.

Andie Case opened with some of her fantastic original songs and continued with favorites such as “Wildest Dreams” by Taylor Swift and “Want to Want Me” by Jason Derulo. Case was accompanied by her two male guitar players. There were no seats at the event, so everyone had an equal chance to get up close to the action. Case, as well as the YouTubers, took the opportunity to high five audience members, causing a wave of excited squeals throughout the crowd of pre-teen and teen girls.

This specific event took the premise of a sleepover, so all the rest of the YouTubers wore their pajamas. The show was set up as a theatrical production with a storyline. The storyline was that they had to save YouTube and in order to do it they had to make five separate videos; each video they made was a YouTube challenge. A YouTube challenge is a video that many people make and they all have to do the same thing. For example, one of the challenges they did was the lip sync challenge. This is when two or more people go against each other trying to lip sync a song better than the other person.

They also shared a little bit of their background with us, about how they were shy in high school or how they had a problem with body shaming. They kept mentioning the importance of having a positive mindset and always having good vibes. Our favorite part of it was how each one of them engaged with their fans. They brought their fans up onstage and talked to them and there was a point where you could get your tweet up on stage with using the #GNIPatchogue.

The night was amazing and it was a great opportunity.
