Welcome to Younghollywood. com.
What's up, Young Hollywood? I'm Tatiana Diana. We are kicking it with Allstar Weekend on the set. We are on the set of their music video, Dance Forever. Yeah. Baby get up. Open your eyes. Now the world's waking up. You'll realize we'll walk to the beat. Suddenly. While we make believe.
Tell us a little bit about the song.
Well, the song's if the the the title explains everything. It's about dancing forever. I mean, it it's a fun summer song. That's why we have it at this location. It's a cool pool party.
Why Allstar Weekend?
Why not Allstar Weekend? I mean, you are all stars. So it makes sense. Yeah.
What would you name us?
Fabulouousness. Fierce, right? In a box. Fab Four. You did a good job. I'm feeling the Fab Four. When Nathan and I first started making this band, we used to like record in our bedroom. We like were trying to make demos and try to get signed and get a record deal. So we recorded a bunch of songs. And while we were recording them, we were like referencing our favorite producer, this guy named Eric Valentine. And one of the songs he produced was Allstar, that Smash Mouth song that ever everyone loves or thinks is really annoying. We loved it. So, um, we uh named ourself Allstar. And then we then we wanted a two-word name instead of one-word name. So to to get the two words, we uh added Weekend because weekends are fun and we think that we're fun, even if you don't think we're fun.
For anybody who has not heard your sound or your music, how would you say that it sounds?
Sounds like Pop Rocks. You ever had that candy? Totally. And I want some right now. Yeah, it explodes. It explodes. That's what it sounds like. I'd say like Pop Rock with a little bit of dance with a little bit of Kermit the Frog. And a little bit of Sour Patch Kids.
Do you have any embarrassing high school stories?
Yeah, definitely. World of Warcraft. Hey, this is embarrassing, but Cameron was in my foods class. And not only in this class, but I used to have an Afro. And um, I had an Afro pick and I would pick my Afro, like, when my teacher was lecturing. And I probably got detention like every single day for doing it because I just couldn't do it non-stop.
You guys could dance forever, if it was physically possible. What would be like your go-to move?
Oh, Nathan's going to break it down. Oh, okay. Okay. All right. Okay, we'll go for it. We'll go for it. Okay. How's it going? So, uh, here we are on the set of Dance Forever. Right here is where we will be filmed doing the last Take. Dude, what? My face just hit the the thing. Yeah, I saw that. We'll be performing right here. Come check it out. Check it out. Got a drum set. Well, blue and sparkly. Drum set. Here's Cameron's drum set. He kind of does that sometimes. He's a really good drummer. We're vibing. We're dancing. We're rocking out. Having a good time. Rocking out on the set. Dance forever. Moving on from that. So these As you can see, the glamour lights are going to make us look beautiful. They're probably going to melt us. They're really hot. Yeah, it's I'm probably going to get I'm getting blacker by the second. I'm getting blacker by the second. Let's check it out. Come this way. Check out the tree fort. Now, we we're bringing it back to the um elementary days. We got the tetherball set up. Um, as you can see, this is, you know, this is set up for somebody our age. But not really, actually. It didn't quite work out. We got a swing over here. Oh, here we go. Tree fort. Um, want to try to get up there? It might be really hard. How do we play this game? Okay. I was playing this game. And uh this girl named Samantha, actually. Do you remember playing this game when it was really cold outside? And anyone like this? It would hit your hands and it would hurt your hands really, really bad. I I'm hoping you see we got grass on the side. Check it out. Some nice grass. You can lay in it, you can sit down. You can just talk. What are you What are you thinking? What are you thinking about? Thinking there's some roses over there. Some roses over there. Feeling kind of romantic right now, if I can.
