Get to the Pointe — ballet

This week - a pointe shoe fitting video! Yay! Your comments asking for more fitting videos are seen. Originally, we had to step away from this format back in 2020 during the pandemic. There were a few attempts with masks and captions, but scheduling got tricky. But when one door closes (at least temporarily), another opens! And thus, reaction videos were born. More specifically Tik Tok reaction videos were born. However, this whole time, pointe shoe fittings are happening constantly. They just weren't captured on camera. But for this video, we connected with 2022 Junior Model, Samantha Striplin! She has...

Y'all flooded our DM's, e-mail inboxes, and tagged us in the mentions - we heard you and delivered.  This week, Josephine watched a very special performance from America's Got Talent All Stars.  Vitoria Bueno is from Brazil and was born without arms.

The graphics look identical to the first ad she saw, but the name had been changed. Not sure why or what happened, but as least we found it. And then, Josephine got to play. She got to level 8; our producer had...

"My toxic trait is that I can only look at feet while watching ballet." Yup. That about sums it up. Santa's been in communication with us, and we know y'all want more Barbie content! We're working on it for the new year, but for now - here's the grand pas from the first ever Barbie movie. Since this movie was released Barbie of Swan Lake (the first Barbie ballet movie Josephine reacted to), the animation and graphics are a little less realistic. And so, you can imagine what the pointe shoes look like too haha! Have a happy holiday &...

Join Josephine for another episode of emotional twists and turns as we delve into the ballet internet rabbit hole more, and more, and more, and more...
