I Was On E! True Hollywood Story! *Behind the Scenes!*

“My mom started freaking out because her… *living room*… was going to be on television, and that was very exciting for her” haha not to mention her daughter 😂 so cool you were able to do this!!

“If I had known my entire body was gonna be in the shot I would not have worn ripped jeans” 😅😍 you are so sweet!

"Jefree Starr is the Trump of the Beauty Community" is so true and you should say it.

Former orchestra kid chiming in here that 'EARLY IS ON TIME - ON TIME IS LATE - LATE IS UNACCEPTABLE' is truly the binding phrase of all us performing arts folks and I totally agree that it's burned into our souls. And here's to you being awesome!

I forgot to mention this on your vlog but I wanted to add how good you looked. You looked beautiful and your hair looked so shiny and healthy. I've been watching the new episodes every week so I was super surprised when this episode came on. To me you were the narrator for the whole episode and you did an amazing job.

I think they made a good choice choosing you as their 'historian' for these events - I've always thought you were great at breaking down events that have happened. Random question, did you experience imposter syndrome after being asked to be on E News?

E! True Hollywood Stories has always been “old tea”, even back in the original interaction in the ‘90s/‘00s it would talk about Hollywood scandals from years and decades before. That’s kind of the their thing. It’s for the pop cultural layperson.

From a makeup artist who works in film/tv, the trick with on camera makeup is very much less is more, you’d much rather have a hint of a blemish poke through than cake face. I’m sure you looked absolutely beautiful!

It was so funny for me when you mentioned the "early=on time, on time=late, late=unexceptable" motto because one of my tutors in uni had that exact motto. One time they were convinced one of my classmates didn't hand in their official first assignment so would be getting 0 marks; after my classmate showed the email confirmation that they did hand it in, the tutor realised they had it in the pile and unmarked so was late in giving the final marks back. The irony.

Well done Hannah! This must have been a full circle moment for you and what a journey. Whenever we start out on our passions or hobbies we actually never know how far in life they may get us.

I love it, your mom was excited that her living room was gonna be on TV, not that YOU are on E News. Leave to our moms to know what's truly important :)

I love that you’re a plus size influencer without needing to mention constantly that you’re plus size. It makes it feel more normalized

I used to work in television so this was really nostalgic for me to watch! And also omg if they only needed to use you for 3 minutes they would've filmed you for a half an hour MAX. Producers do tend to get very !!! when they feel like you're giving them a money shot (a great gem to pull later) but they should NOT be going stoic on you because that does throw a lot of people off & they should care more about getting your authentic answer and keeping you open to the questions than trying to get exact lines from you. It sounds like you had fun but I would definitely say use the fact that you've been featured on TV to raise all your rates across the board. You're an expert & deserve to be paid as such

Although a very different genre- I was on Naked and Afraid. I fully understand the, "Is this a scam" reaction, the nerves during the interviews, the nerves of not knowing how to act on camera, and the surprises at how they actually choose to portray you and your "roll" It was also a very surreal experience for me-- hard to appreciate things while they're happening when you're so out of your element.

THIS IS HUGE! I honestly think its a huge sign of respect -- and, if I may add importance -- that the mainstream media recognizes major Youtubers (and the channels that discuss influential Youtubers like you do) as legitimate influential entertainers. They truly are major and minor celebrities with a LOT if influence. I cannot wait to watch this interview. (I hope they put it up on YouTube or have it available for streaming via Hulu!)

I could listen to you talk about anything. The BEST story teller

First of all, they couldn’t have picked a better internet historian to cover dramagedon. Secondly, the way I was invested in this story— felt like a debrief with a bestie. Thirdly, love this for you 🤍

I’m weirdly emotional for you right now lol I’m a video editor so 1) it sounds like you did an awesome job and we’re great pick for them. I’m sure you were a pleasure to edit and 2) I can absolutely see how this is so full circle for you. Your empathy, creativity, and kindness in the face of all of those gross situations is what got you here 🙌🏾

Hahahaha I am CRACKING UP at the description of you doing your makeup! 😂 “but then I just kept going further, and further, and FURTHER… and then I put makeup on my hands!” 🤣😂🤣 Love it!!!

i have always wondered how documentaries are made, and how confessionals for them and reality shows are done so this was super cool, thank you for making this!
