- (FBE) So today, you're going to be reacting to yourself.
I know that sometimes makes the reactors a little uncomfortable.
- To myself?
- (FBE) Today, you'll be reacting to your audition
for College Kids React. - Ew, no!
- Oh, my god!
I remember I was nervous as all hell when I walked into the studio.
Oh, I'm going to look like a four-year-old!
Aah, this is weird!
- I remember that day.
I remember I was wearing a terrible dress
for my color scheme and my hair was a mess.
I was so amazed by how nice everyone was
because I was so nervous. JC was here with me.
And he's right here right now. It's full circle.
He wasn't with me in the audition, but he was with me
the first day I came into the office as officially here.
♪ (campy '80s music) ♪
- (Dionte) The foot clap at the beginning.
- "The foot clap." I remember--
see, I actually remember that.
And I remember I went to go look up this video
right after I auditioned just because.
I was like, "Oh, my gosh. That was funny as hell."
- (FBE) I'm not even kidding. I think you did the same motion
that you were doing in the video.
- (laughing in slow-mo)
That's my thing! That's literally my-- oh, gosh!
That's so gross!
- (Dionte) I have a pair of those pants at home.
- Unfortunately, I do.
- (FBE) What did you think of his dance moves?
- Oh. - (Dionte chuckling)
I definitely have to find out who he is
so I can learn from him because they're pretty sick.
- Ew, who says "sick"?!
Who says sick?! Nobody uses that anymore.
- (FBE) And how often do you take selfies?
- (Dionte) Too often would kind of be an understatement.
- Yeah, my selfie game has kind of diminished since then.
- (Dionte) Lighting is everything.
I've spent many a time in a bathroom at a Red Lobster
and just like, "Oh, let me take six selfies right now
because why not?" - What?! (laughing)
I don't remember saying that.
Oh, my god!
Oh, wow. I'm so ashamed.
Oh, this is embarrassing.
- (Dionte) He's pulling off the maid outfit too.
(chuckling) I couldn't do it, personally.
I don't have the legs for it.
- I got the legs for it now, though.
- (Dionte) I can't run and selfie at the same time.
- Yeah.
- (Dionte) I can't multitask that way.
- I still can't multitask now, so that's a thing too.
Glad some things never changed about me.
- (FBE) What do you think of the guy's clothes in the video?
- (snorting and laughing)
I still do the hand-- oh my gosh, I'm sorry.
- (Dionte) Yeah. - Yeah. Yeah.
Just yeah.
It was weird.
I left here with the mindset of, you know what,
even if I don't get called back, which probably isn't gonna happen,
it was a fun thing.
So I'm like, damn, this is something I will always remember
and it's like I got a callback and I was like, oh, snap!
That's crazy!
- EWW!
- (Isabella) My sister doesn't really like Selena Gomez.
- What's going on with my hair?
- (Isabella) ...kinda like, "Oh, she's okay."
- What's going with my hair right now, but--
- (Isabella) Other times, it's just kinda like, "Eh."
- I hate the way I sound. Do I sound like that?
- (Isabella) This is a big thing on Twitter,
that she had-- oh, she's showing herself
a little bit more and I was just kinda like,
well, I guess. I mean, she's getting older.
- This is awful.
The way I sound and just what I'm saying,
I'm just like, ugh, what was I thinking?
- (Isabella) They would play all the time,
stuff on the radio, just kinda like they overplay it--
- I can't get over my hair. It's just too much.
But then I can't because my hair now just looks awful.
- (Isabella) It's very all over the place,
but, I mean, it's a good song. - My eyebrows are so big!
Uggggh! - (Isabella) ...really relate to it.
- Why didn't anybody tell me that my eyebrows were so big?
My fiancé didn't tell me. I'm coming after you, babe.
- (Isabella) Oh, my gosh! I love this guy.
- I still love these people.
- (Isabella) Poor thing. All she wants to do is workout--
- I'm not even gonna listen to me. I'm just gonna watch the video.
- (Isabella) If that was me, it would be so different.
I wouldn't take it-- but it's so funny to watch.
- Is it? Is it so funny to watch?
Ugh. It does prepare you for the show now
because now you kinda don't know what to expect
and going into that, I didn't know
what I was going to be doing. It was just really nerve-racking
at first. When I started,
I did my first episode. I kind of eased into it.
Now, doing it now, it's easier.
Once you get used to it, it is a lot of fun.
My fiancé makes me watch them with him,
and I don't mind because, I mean, I like to see his reaction to it,
but when I come on, I'm like, ugh, there I am.
- (Sheila) If I can be honest-- - (squealing)
- (Sheila) ...from the face and the hair, like my dad,
and I can show you a picture, but he's not gonna be proud of that.
- (Sheila) That was the first thing I said.
I can't even remember it. Oh, my god.
I'm so mad.
- (Sheila) I can show you a picture of my dad.
- Stop talking about your dad!
Stop talking about your dad!
- (Sheila) I looked at it and I thought, like,
my dad didn't sing for me, but I don't think he would like
to record himself.
I wonder what their kids think, like his kids.
I don't know if he has kids, but I think it's funny.
- (daintily) And I think it's funny.
(laughing) What the hell is that voice?
- (FBE) What is a selfie? - (Sheila) I can show you.
Let me bring my phone. - (FBE laughing)
- I love taking selfies.
- (Sheila) Hold your phone like this--
- Let me try to be Kourtney Kardashian,
how to teach you how to eat a Kit Kat.
- (Sheila) And then you do this.
I'm not professional like Kim Kardashian.
- I'm still obsessed about the Kardashians.
Guilty pleasure, I watch them all day long!
- (Sheila) Didn't you show this before?
- Yes, I saw when you guys reacted to this.
That shows I'm a huge fan from back in the day!
- "Choking"... "chokes" or "choke me," and I don't like that.
- I don't!
I used to be like this.
I'm definitely more out in the chair.
- (FBE) So to hear about all of the auditions today,
people can follow us on Instagram and we post all of that information.
How did you end up finding out about auditioning
in the first place?
- So I found you guys on Instagram because I'd been watching
the show religiously since you guys started the channel.
And then there was a post one day that was like,
"Attention all college kids. Blah blah blah."
I was like, you know what, shoot your shot
because, I mean, worst case scenario, you just don't do it,
but the fact that you even attempted to do it,
that's enough as it is.
Every time I come here, there's always something new.
There's always a new experience.
This is just the definition of doors open
to so many possibilities and it's just
such a blessing to be here, guys.
- I found the audition on Instagram, so I follow you guys.
Go follow at FBE.
I applied and then they called me to come to LA
and I came.
I reacted and they were like, "We'll get back to you
in two weeks, three weeks."
And then next week they called me and I'm here
filming High School Musical video, and I was like, "This is great."
I can do that.
- (FBE) Why did you want to be on the show?
- I loved this show from the beginning.
I used to watch it when it was first Tom and Madison
and were really, really young.
The first person to show it to me was my little brother,
then I just started watching it from then.
I never thought I'd be on the show now and I think it's really cool
to be watching a show and then be on it.
- I thought that people would want to hear me
talk about things that I thought were important
or not important because I'm very vocal about stuff
and people are like, "You're so opinionated.
You always have something to say."
And I do talk a lot, so, I mean,
I guess it'd be kind of cool if I could be on it.
- I like to give my opinion.
I like to talk.
FBE, Benny and Rafi were my OG favorite YouTubers
with Smosh, them, and everyone else-- Jenna Marbles.
Sometimes we did content of toys, like fidget spinners,
but sometimes we'll talk about something serious, politics,
and it's getting everyone involved and you guys have
from all ethnicities, all ages, and I just like that vibe.
- (FBE) And finally, for anyone out there
who wants to be on the show one day, what would your best advice be
for the audition process?
- Just be yourself.
Don't try to over-exaggerate.
They're gonna like you for who you are.
- You don't lose anything trying. That's the main thing.
You don't lose anything trying.
It's amazing. Why not?
You can dream. That's what everyone says
because it's true.
But to dream, you have to make action.
- Be as open and honest about everything as possible.
Show that you can kinda showcase who you are.
Everything that we do on this channel is genuine from the heart.
Like, us-- people kind of resonate with that
and I'm sure somebody's gonna be able to resonate with you
the same way.
- Hi, guys, thanks for watching this episode.
If you're interested on being on the show,
make sure to follow us on Instagram at FBE.
That's where we post when we're looking for new reactors.
Good luck, everyone. Bye.
