"I've never been backstage at a Victoria's Secret Fashion Show," Stas Karanikolaou says while getting ready. Once she arrives, though, the greetings feel less like formal interviews than friends finding each other amid hair and makeup.
Her vlog, "backstage at the Victoria's Secret Fashion Show," reached nearly 150,000 views in seven hours, an unusually fast opening for her channel. The fashion-show visit follows uploads about Milan and a Gucci show, but this time she takes the camera into the preparations rather than just dressing for the occasion.
Stas and her friend Lindsey head to the venue with YouTube. Backstage, she chats with Candice Swanepoel and visits Kylie Jenner in her dressing room. "You look like an angel!" Stas says during the visit, bringing the same enthusiastic energy viewers recognize from her outings with friends.
The comments pick up on that informality: viewers describe the backstage exchanges as catch-ups rather than interviews. One even says they could distinguish Stas's cheering during the runway livestream.
The title's main attraction arrives around fifteen minutes in. Before that, there is a quieter stretch of reading children's books with her niece, followed by an Ella Langley concert with her sister and friends. The vlog takes its time getting to the runway: Stas starts with story time before joining the backstage bustle.
