- If you guys like deep cuts, check out Pride Live!
(laughs)
(spring rebounds)
- Hello beautiful, wonderful Internet family!
Tomorrow is a very exciting day!
Why, you may ask?
- Why?
- Thank you.
- Why?
Tomorrow is Pride Live.
What's Pride Live?
Pride Live is a thing that we decided
to do to torture ourselves.
- Yeah, yeah.
- What did what were we thinking?
- I don't know.
- I really don't know because it's a lot.
- It's a lot.
Is it too much?
We'll find out literally tomorrow.
Anyways, so I wanted to give you guys a taste,
a sneak peek, because my Harto peeps are my fam.
You guys are my fam and I love you
more than any other person on the Internet.
If you guys like my channel, you are my favorite ones.
Period.
Sorry Ella, is that hard for you to?
- I feel the love.
I feel the mutual love here, I am fine
to be in the thrapple of this relationship here.
I mean, I kinda feel like they enjoy me sometimes too.
- Whoa. - Is what it's all about.
- Okay.
Anyway, so we're gonna show you guys a little taste
of what Pride Live is all about
by playing a game called Coming Out: Two Truths and a Lie,
where each of us will tell two truths and one lie
about our coming out journeys,
and then you guys will guess which is which.
And then we'll also guess to just keep the video moving.
- You guess as you watch. - You guess as you watch.
- And then we'll say the answers.
- Soon after.
- But put them in the comments maybe like as you watch,
as soon as you think of it.
Yeah. - Go.
Okay, number one.
When I came out to a group of my friends I piggybacked
on another friend's coming out.
Number two.
The first time I came out was in fifth grade.
Number three.
All of my high school best friends,
surprisingly came out during the same year.
(Whispers)
- I know for a fact that when you came out
to a group of friends you did piggyback
on someone's coming out.
Care to tell that story?
- I was planning to tell all of my friends
that I was dating somebody at a dinner
and one of my best friends, Ashley Perez,
at the same dinner told all of us that she was also queer.
And then my response being nervous
and instead of responding to her
like "oh my god" was "same"!
- Way to steal her thunder!
- So I like really stole her thunder
to all of our work friends.
- Okay, so I know the first thing you said is true.
- Yeah.
- Could the second one:
the first time you ever came out was fifth grade,
this is the one I'm iffy about.
You were just kind of like a nerd blob a lot.
- A nerd blob?
- Just kidding.
- I was a sports girl.
- Same thing.
- I played softball.
- Okay I'm gonna go ahead and say that,
I'm gonna say then fifth grade is the lie.
- Fifth grade is the lie.
- Yeah!
So what grade was it?
- It was no grade, it was actually right after high school.
After graduation, like in that summer.
- To who?
- To my friends and family.
- What'd you say?
- I said that I think I wanna experiment with women.
I definitely didn't say it like that,
but I said it in some embarrassing string of non-sentences,
and I just hoped that everyone could fill in the blanks
from what I was trying to say.
- And number three is a truth,
that your friends were all coming out in the same year.
But that's just kind of a funny story because-
- It's definitely unique, I think.
Does it really work out,
that a lot of your friends turn out to be queer?
- Yeah, I think you all just have crushes on each other.
How many of your friends have you kissed?
- A good amount.
'Cause I had one amazing New Years' party.
- That's enough of this story, anyway!
- Okay, now you go.
- No, I'm gonna stall instead
by telling everybody about Pride Live!
I will go though, because I've got some really dicey,
saucy, Sphinx-like Two Truths and a Lie lined up for you.
But not yet!
We're gonna talk about Pride Live first.
Pride Live is the three-fold production
by Harto, Buzzfeed, and Into where we come together
to do a three hour livestream on YouTube,
all in the name of raising awareness
for the issues and activism that is helping
protect and surround our LGBTQ youth.
And also, we threw this event together in a month.
What the hell?
- Yeah.
- For the people at home who maybe don't work
in the Hollywood spaces, would you like to tell them
what a live production entails?
- It's way more than I ever thought it would, I was like-
- But you were the one who said let's do it!
- There's so many little details like what lower thirds.
- Look, the reason why we did this is
because we're ambitious and fictitious.
We're just elements of your imagination!
- Oh my god.
- What a relief!
Do you think Hamilton has copyright issues?
- Yeah.
Here's what I'll say.
We decided to produce this crazy,
ambitious three hour production.
- There's like thirty plus different people
coming in and out of the show.
- We just came from VidCon,
we have a wedding,
we're going on vacation.
It's a lot, it's a lot happening.
- Here's the thing, let me level with you guys.
You know me, I like to put the cart
before the horse as they say.
I like to bite off more than I can chew.
Like I have been going to an office, guys.
And like, working on spreadsheets
and shared documents and like, Excel.
- Which does a lot of cool stuff.
I'm just saying!
- How do you think I've been doing
in the corporate environment, Ella?
- She comes in like a boss wearing her cute shirts,
running meetings, writing down notes,
handling things, picking up props.
- Oh yeah, I picked up props yesterday.
- We also have like seven musical numbers.
- We booked so much amazing musical talent for this thing.
Like, get ready for a lot of heartfelt ballads,
but then also some real bops!
- I'm just surprised that this all came together.
- I'm shocked it all came together.
And something else I'm really shocked about slash excited
for is how jealous our friends who couldn't make it
are gonna feel when they see this show.
You know who I'm talking about!
You guys are gonna regret not coming
to the YouTube space on a Friday!
To be fair, the YouTube space is located-
- It's far.
- It's far away. And there's traffic both directions.
- I really don't blame anybody we know for not showing.
- Yeah.
- I think this whole thing was us
just playing a game of Chicken with each other,
because every single week we'd look at each other
and be like so are we still doing this live show?
- Yeah we're still doing this live show.
- And we both were like yeah, yeah.
We're doing this, is everyone still in?
Everyone's still in, everyone's really excited.
And it just kept happening.
- And I'd be like so but like Ella,
do we have the graphics together?
- And I'd be like yeah, we do have it.
We actually do have the logo and the graphics.
I'd be like Hannah,
do we have the games and the creative together?
- And I'd be like yeah,
I've thought of a lot of amazing games
and the creative is all on point.
I really hope that everyone else involved
in making this show doesn't watch the videos on my channel,
because they get to see how much we're both like (groan).
Maybe everybody has been playing a game of Chicken with us,
and they're trying to call our bluff!
Haha everybody!
Turns out you're all capable, and we're lucky!
- Your turn, throw 'em at me, let me guess.
- Okay, Two Truths and a Lie.
One, the first member
of my biological family I ever
came out to was my little sister Maggie.
- I don't even know now.
- Two, my first kiss with a girl was in high school.
- These are hard.
- Three, I lived with my first girlfriend.
- Okay.
- I think that's hard.
- They are hard.
- This is hard.
- I don't even know if you know any of these, to be honest.
- Okay wow, these are actually pretty hard
because I could see I definitely know a lot about you
but these specific details I think could go either way.
- That's why I chose them.
- I'm leaning towards the first kiss one in high school
because I don't well you were kind of.
That's the thing, you skip over
a lot of your younger details.
'Cause I'm like who did you hook up with in high school?
And then you're like nobody, never.
And then like, I'll hear stories
from your friends and they're like Hannah was wild!
But I'm like what!
Okay, I think that the lie is the high school kiss.
- Wrong!
- No!
Okay wait let me try to guess again.
Was it the Maggie one?
- Yes!
- Ugh, that was my second pick!
Did you first come out to Naomi?
- Yes!
- Damn it, I knew that one, that was (groans).
Who did you kiss in high school?
- To be fair, I don't remember
but I do know that I definitely like
I don't actually ever remember kissing a girl in high school
but I know that it happened.
But I don't remember,
I remember like - You blocked it out.
- Yeah, kinda.
- 'Cause you were repressed.
- Yeah, kinda.
Like I know that I kissed a girl in high school like
at a seven minutes in heaven,
like one of those kind of things.
- Like a party where you're like kiss that girl
and you were like - And then you're like
oh my god, this is so awkward
and then you do like a ha-ha-ha.
And then if you're like Hannah, you're like
♪ Who can say where the road goes ♪
- For me-
- I kinda feel like that kiss was amazing.
- Right now?
- Yeah.
- Yeah, it was.
- Whoa. - Whoa.
(short laugh)
- Anyway, back to Pride Live.
Look, this livestream is gonna have a lot.
But it's also hopefully gonna have a lot of you,
my people, my Hartosexuals there with me.
So I actually have a game
that's just for you guys. - Ooh, yes.
- Literally exclusive to this channel and this community.
I'm not announcing this, like it's just for us, okay?
- Okay.
- And that game is Harto Bingo.
So I have composed a list of twenty five things
that could happen during Pride Live
and I want you guys to print out
or make your own Bingo sheets
and then put them in.
And then as they happen check them off.
And if you get Bingo, you get something!
Something!
- Something?
- Something!
- Open up the description, see the list of twenty five.
Click on the make a Bingo sheet or whatever.
Then slot in your twenty five Bingo placement spots, 'kay?
Then when Pride Live starts,
take a picture of you holding your Bingo sheet.
This is how we prevent cheating.
Take a picture of you holding your Bingo sheet,
watching Pride Live so I know that you're not erasing stuff
and filling it into make five in a row.
'Cause those are the rules of Bingo.
And then when you get Bingo, say Bingo!
- Do they Tweet it at you?
Is that how you're gonna figure it out?
- Yeah, Hashtag Harto Bingo.
Hashtag Pride Live. If you guys win Harto Bingo,
you're gonna get something really good and cool.
Like a physical thing that's gonna be great, you know?
Like something from my house.
I will bet you money that less than
twenty five people end up playing Harto Bingo.
- Oh, so your chances are good.
Okay, I mean, it's effort. - Good chances are good.
- Here's the thing. - I know.
- Those who are the real ones who want to play,
you gotta print it out.
- You have to print something out!
- You gotta make your sheet.
- How are you gonna print something out?
- In this day in age? - What an impossible ask.
- I don't even have a printer.
- But guys, we're gonna be giving away
twenty five really cool things from our house.
Like I'm gonna say this cool tin camping mug.
(can clinks)
This candle, signed. - It smells great.
Oh, that's a good one!
- This thing, batteries will be included.
And so much more, we have a lot
of really cool stuff in this house.
So we're giving away twenty five items
for those of you who play Harto Bingo and win.
You know frankly because I don't think more than
twenty five people will play, I think way less will play,
if you play at all you're probably gonna get something.
Click below in the description,
check out that list of twenty five.
Then print out a Bingo sheet.
Then from that list of twenty five things
that could happen during Pride Live,
fill 'em in the blanks.
Then take a picture when Pride Live starts
so I know you're not cheating.
Then you get Bingo, then you get something.
And remember, if you play at all,
you're probably gonna end up getting something.
Hashtag Harto Bingo, so do it!
Yeah baby, talk about nothing to lose,
only things to gain just like a great three hours
waiting for you Friday for Pride Live.
Oh man wish me luck everybody, I feel pretty good.
You know, sometimes people say I've gone Hollywood
