DO PARENTS KNOW VINE STARS (REACT: Do They Know It)

♪ (upbeat theme music) ♪

- (Megan) So today we're gonna see
how much you know

about social media stars by...
- (heavy groan)

- (Megan) ... by showing you some people
who are most popular on Vine

to see if you recognize them.

- Well, can you tell by my reaction
that I don't think

I'm gonna do stellar at this? (laughing)

- I'm not a Viner, but it's okay.

- God bless the Viners.
Um, I'll try.

- I won't know anyone.

- I KNOW I'm gonna
fail miserably at this.

- I'm not gonna do well with that,
but you know what,

I'm along for the ride.

- There are a very small handful
of Viners that I follow,

so I may know a few of them.

♪ (quirky interlude) ♪

- (Megan) First one.
Do you know him?

- No. I do not know who he is.

- No, he looks like a model
instead of a Viner.

- He is sponsored by Sun-In
and California wine coolers.

- He's got really, really stylish hair.

- I don't know, Dimples McGee?

He's got the wind-blown hair
"I'm at the beach,

just about to take off
this Calvin Klein sweatshirt."

- (Megan) This is Cameron Dallas.
- Cameron Dallas.

- I don't know who he is.

- He doesn't look like
Cameron Diaz, that's for sure.

- That's about the name
I'd pick for that guy too.

Yeah, I don't know him.

- I feel like I've recognized that name.

My daughter has probably showed me this.

- (Megan) Cameron Dallas
is number two on Vine

and is huge on almost every platform.
- Every girl's platform?

- (Megan) He has millions of followers,
and is one of the first online stars

to get an original Netflix reality show
following his life.

- Yeah, he's adorable, so I get it.

- You find an opportunity
and you just go with it.

- Wow, way to go, Cameron!

♪ (quirky interlude) ♪

- (Megan) Do you know this Vine star?
- I do not know him.

- No.

- I don't know his name.

- I don't know! He's the I-don't-know-guy.

- For some reason, he seems
like a kinda nerdy kind of type.

- That looks like
a vintage picture of Greg Brady.

(laughing)

I don't know who it is.

- Ah, that guy looks familiar
and I don't know why.

- It's Zach King.

Dude, the guy's brilliant.

- Zach King.

The name sounds familiar.

who has become well-known

for his amazing special effects
and editing tricks

he uses in his Vines.

He has also become popular on Instagram,
with over 14 million followers.

- Wow.

(impressed whistle)

- I can see why though.

He's just very, very talented.

- Wait, I have seen this kid!

He's the one where it's like
I hit the computer and it's water.

Those are actually really cool.

♪ (quirky interlude) ♪

- (Megan) So do you know this woman?

- Oh, I don't.

- I have no idea.

- She looks like Brooke Shields.
I don't know if you know her.

Maybe she's a model?

- No, but she looks like Eva Mendes.

- No, does she do makeup tutorials?

- Do not know her name at all.

Gonna guess it's style fashion makeup.

- (Megan) So this is Lele Pons.
- (amused) Lele Pons?

- I have not heard of her.

I am bombing big time here.

- I feel like I've heard of her, actually.

I will take it all back.

I don't know her at all,
but I've heard her name for sure.

- (Megan) As of August 2016,
Pons has hit over 8.5 billion loops

on Vine, which makes her
the most-viewed person on Vine.

- Wow.

- That's outstanding.

- She's serious business.

I hope it's translating into income.

- The power of social media.
It's unbelievable.

Things like this didn't exist
when I was, you know, a teenager.

♪ (quirky interlude) ♪

- (Megan) Next up,
do you recognize this Vine star?

- Hmm. Nope.

- I don't.

- He looks very familiar.
Kid actor, almost.

- He's a Disney or Nickelodeon star,
if I'm not mistaken.

- Oh, this is the kid from Josh and Drake.

I don't know his name,
but I've seen him collaborate

with a bunch of other people.

- Aaaah! I totally recognize him.

The guy from Drake and Josh.

He was Josh.

- That's the kid from Josh and Drake.

I'm pretty sure he's Josh.

- Oh! Oh! Oh!
I know this guy!

Not Drake. Okay, this is Josh.

I forget his last name.

- (Megan) This is Josh Peck.
- Josh Peck.

Oh, Drake and Josh?

I haven't seen any Vines
that he's put out at all.

- Josh Peck, okay.

I'm just assuming
he does something in comedy

just because he has
always been that comedian.

- (Megan) So Josh Peck actually started off
as a famous child actor

on Nickelodeon shows like Drake and Josh.

- Oooh, ha ha!

- Ooh, yeah, yes.

My kids used to watch that.

- (Megan) In addition
to still doing acting,

he has amassed a Vine following
of over 9.1 million.

- Wow! Didn't know that.

- Wow, get it, Josh.

- That's awesome to know that, like--
look at how social media gives him,

you know, another platform,
another way to get his creativity

out there in the world-- that's killer.

♪ (quirky interlude) ♪

- (Megan) Do you
recognize these Vine stars?

- No.

They look amazing.

- Brother and sister cooking team?

- It's like they do kinda like,
I don't know, spooky kind of stuff?

(pensive gasp)

- (grumbles) I thought I did.

It looks like this group
that just came out with an album.

Us the Duo?

- (Megan) This is Michael
and Carissa Alvarado of Us the Duo.

- Us the Duo?

- I have not heard of them at all.

So sorry for being old
and just listening to classic rock.

- (wheezy gasp) Really?

I thought they were just musicians.

- (Megan) Us the Duo
are a folk singing husband and wife

whose music covers
became so popular on Vine

that they were even signed
to Republic Records in 2014,

which many consider
to be the first instance

where a musical artist
was signed from that platform.

- Wow, okay.
Well, there you go.

- That's very good.

- So they started out with the vines
and then they become the-- oh, wow!

♪ (quirky interlude) ♪

Zero out of how many? (laughing)

Okay, yes.

I don't remember his name.

- Yeah, it's Bach.
It's King Bach.

He's hilarious.

- (Megan) So this person is--
- King Bach.

Like classical music "Bach?"

- King "Back."
Oh, King "Bach."

He's not the one
who started this one, right?

- Oh, I do recognize that name!

- I've never seen that brother on Vine.

He must be doing something right.

How many followers does he have?
Is he in the top ten?

- (Megan) King Bach is
the most followed person on Vine,

with nearly 16 million followers.

His Vine stardom has enabled him to pursue

a mainstream acting career as well,

including roles on shows
like House of Lies and The Mindy Project.

- Then that's probably where I've seen him.

Definitely one of those two shows.

- That guy works his tail off.
I mean, you can see it.

Like, he's always doing something.

- I'm gonna start making vines too.
See if I can make it big.

- Last one: do you know this Vine star?

- I do not know who he is.

- He looks really, really muscular.

Does he do free running parkour?

but there's a theme here.

It's the people that are
very good-looking that hit it.

- He has a familiar looking face.

Is he a comedy guy?

Yes, he's hilarious and I don't know
(teeth clenched) his name right now!

That's all I know.

"(griping) Mom!

I've shown you to him a thousand times!"

- (Megan) Though Logan is
one of the most popular users

with nine million followers,
he rarely posts on Vine anymore

and now has over
10 million followers on Facebook.

- Oh! He just moved to another platform.

- He's understanding his business.
That's smart, man!

Come on.

He ain't no dummy, that Logan.
