My second weekend back in Los Angeles was characterized by good tacos, lots of Snapchatting – and the MTV Video Music Awards! I caught the concert bug and took to the streets to see some of my favorite artists take the stage. Check it:
Saturday, 8/29

Taco Bell sponsored the Artist to Watch Concert, featuring the colorful trio HOLYCHILD,Β electronic wizard Robert DeLong, vibe-friendly St. Lucia and “Shut Up and Dance” professionals WALK THE MOON!
When you look up “vibin'” in the dictionary, St. Lucia appears.
Taco Bell delivered free tacos to the audience in between sets! This made me a very happy girl.
Robert DeLong rocked the house!
Sunday, 8/30
The big day! I grabbed my homegirl, Claire, and headed downtown to the Special Performances – we got upgraded to the front of the audience and snuggled in real close to Macklemore & Ryan Lewis‘ Eagle chariot, Demi‘s neon dancers and Pharrell‘s “Freedom” flags!
Me + clairethegingy!
WE WERE SO PUMPED!
Demi killed it (I went absolutely nuts during her entire performance) and Iggy showed up out of nowhere so, okay!(?)
1iota hosted fans right outside of the Orpheum in L.A. Free Pepsi was abundant.
Taking home my Pharrell flag – click the video to see how we employed them!
Hit play below for a quick look at our amazing POV! Go ahead, get up close and personal!
