  • anyone who created.

  • I think all of the rebels, people and all of the unwanted people should host a little meet and greet in Anaheim, California, on the same day.

  • Zzzz bit gone I'd love to do it tohave Shane and his friends supporting my convention is literally the most jaw droppings here jerking emotional thing to have ever happened to me.

  • Like I literally every single day, once a day get brought to tears at the fact that Shane loves me and supports me.

  • We're never getting in because there's no way to fucking get in way.

  • Yeah, okay, this is there's a lot going on right now.

  • Um, I am about to go interview Tana Tana Mojo about a lot of things.

  • But we've been filming all day today because a bunch of stuff happened that I'm gonna get Thio.

  • I literally don't even know where to start.

  • I'll serve it.

  • Tana con wa supposed to be Tana's version of vidcon.

  • It's a convention where you can meet your favorite youtuber.

  • It's inclusive and anybody can come And it was being marketed as like a free version of it con.

  • If you guys wanna leave me suggestions of places in Anaheim to throw a free me angry I've got in this here, let me know I'll find a place and I'm gonna do it.

  • And this all started because Tana made a video about Vin Kong where she was saying, Oh, they treated her poorly.

  • Not only did Vidocq on decided last minute not to make me a featured creator, but they decided it would be better if they banned me from their event for life.

  • They were, you know, doing one of shady things to YouTubers.

  • But every year you guys do everything in your power to make it hell for me.

  • But only after I promote the shit out of your event.

  • And don't you think that's fucked up?

  • She wanted to create her version of it, but better.

  • I would love to make the shit bigger, better and freer than video.

  • And then when that video went out, a lot of YouTubers started tweeting about it and kind of like sighting with her.

  • Like a lot of YouTubers, we're like we you create team Tana.

  • And reportedly there are already 80 confirmed creators to attend your Miranda sings Ricky Dylan Casey Neistat, Bella Thorne.

  • It was pretty crazy.

  • His tan is one of those people were She's very polarizing.

  • A lot of people don't like her.

  • A lot of people think she's a mess like they don't trust her.

  • They think she's lying a lot, but for some reason this specific thing everybody was like I'm on team Tana.

  • Personally, I hope it does well because the success of others and people being more independent in this community leads to more success for others being independent in this community.

  • So then Tana Khan became reality.

  • She was planning a convention the same weekend as Vidcon.

  • It starts tomorrow at the same time Vidcon is happening right down the street from God, literally within walking distance.

  • On this convention, she was saying was gonna be free or have really cheap V I p tickets.

  • And I would love to me, You guys are free because there are cancer free and all your favorite creators were gonna be there.

  • She texted me and she was like, Hey, I totally understand if you don't want to come, but like it would mean the world to me if you did, and I said Yes.

  • I've been on YouTube for a long time.

  • I was literally at the first call back in 2009 or 2010.

  • Hey, Shira Lazar coming to you backstage at Vidcon with Shane Dawson.

  • How was it?

  • Because this is the first ever pecan conference of its kind.

  • When it was just 1000 people, it was a few YouTubers and it's really small.

  • And I was there in my fucking ugly, vast straight in here.

  • So can you sign my book, please?

  • Of course.

  • And I did that because the Green Brothers, you know, asked me to do it, and they wanted me to support them, and I didn't.

  • So that's why I decided to go to Tanna con because I wanted to support Tina.

  • She's trying something new, And I was like, You know what?

  • Hey, Conventions.

  • I've made a big on forever.

  • I hate this shit.

  • Let's do it.

  • So I didn't really do much research on anything.

  • I didn't really know anything going into it, except for the fact that, like my face, was on the list of people next to Bella Thorne, I don't know.

  • And I was gonna do me and create I was like, All right, sounds good.

  • Like this wasn't my convention, okay?

  • I wasn't a part of the planning.

  • I wasn't a part of anything except for the fact that I was like, Sure, I'll come.

  • Which now, in retrospect, is the worst decision I think I've ever made.

  • She created her own event called Tana Con.

  • And it got shut down today.

  • Not on Lee was tank on failure, but it was a safety hazard here.

  • I need everybody to move it out.

  • What is in this parking lot?

  • With no bathrooms, no water, no water caused riots.

  • It caused so many thousands of people to get sunburns.

  • Third degree burns on their bodies were in line for almost five hours.

  • As you can see, I am burns.

  • Actually, this hurts.

  • People were passing out.

  • Nobody was even getting into the convention center.

  • The convention center wasn't even a convention center.

  • It was a hotel lobby the size of a chipotle eight.

  • And they were acting like 5000 people in there.

  • Which is crazy.

  • This is crazy.

  • To what?

  • So you end up, you end up right here, but you start waiting back here.

  • And then of course, it was canceled.

  • Can't be too many people.

  • There's a lot of drama involving Matt, and you have James Charles going on a Twitter rant.

  • I was with him when he was ranting, and I mean, I know he was getting a lot of shit for it, but I agreed everything.

  • Saying this was a mess was a mess.

  • Tana wasn't taking accountability.

  • She wasn't returning anybody's phone calls or texts.

  • Her team was being confused and like not helping, either.

  • Everything about this Waas, it's like every we've been on Children.

  • All right, boys, like the captain said, Nice and cheery, so there's no panic wedding dance now it got cancelled.

  • Thank God nobody got seriously hurt.

  • But now we're left in a place where I don't know if anybody's getting refunds.

  • I haven't been able to really talk to anybody.

  • But even more confusing, I've been hearing some crazy theories that maybe all of this was planned to fail.

  • It sounds crazy, but why else would they have a hotel lobby where it says on the website it fits 1000 people?

  • Why would they sell 5000?

  • Also, in all the videos of people at con, everybody purchased tickets.

  • Everyone featured fucking traitor.

  • I have not seen a single mother.

  • She has seen any people that claim they got free passes or anything.

  • No, no.

  • She said that there were seven separate lines for V I, p and regular.

  • But whenever I went through the line, there was no difference at all.

  • Nobody saw anybody with a free ticket, which is the whole thing.

  • Oh, Cam is giving out free tickets, and I would love to me, you guys are free to cause a rock concert free.

  • Where are they?

  • And then the big story was 20,000 people showed up.

  • And that's why we can't lose 20,000 fucking crazy teenagers showed up and ruined everything for everybody.

  • It Well, she expected about 5000 people to show up.

  • 20,000 people showed up.

  • Then you look at the actual footage and it doesn't not look like 20,000 people.

  • Everybody that's been there that I've talked to, you said no.

  • Maybe a few $1000.1.

  • And then you start to think.

  • Okay, what if this whole thing was bullshit?

  • There wasn't free tickets.

  • What if everybody paid $65 for a ticket and freer, then video and What if 1000 of them were inside on the other 4000 paid to be there were outside waiting to get in.

  • But there was literally no room.

  • So it wasn't a riot.

  • It wasn't like a bunch of crazy people saying Fuck vidcon.

  • It was kids who paid money to be there, standing out the sun, burning their ass off.

  • Now, the reason this makes sense to me is because number one who the fuck is good times?

  • Touring company?

  • Who is that?

  • I've never heard of them.

  • I don't know what they are.

  • Are they even rial number to look at this picture?

  • Okay, this is a picture of a group of 20,000 people.

  • This is what it looks like.

  • All right, Now, this is the supposed 20,000 people that were outside of town a con, huh?

  • That's not the same.

  • Now, I know a lot of people are gonna be like Shane.

  • Shut up.

  • Why do you care so much?

  • Who cares?

  • It's not your convention.

  • Nobody blames you, like get over and move on.

  • I've heard that from a lot of people on the Internet, in my life, people are just like you stop giving so much of a fuck about this.

  • The reason I do is because I went into this thinking, Oh, this satanic on Theo.

  • You know, it's gonna be all tennis fans, and maybe I'll be walking around and it's like, Oh, there's there's the grandpa of you to bow that Shane.

  • Well, that old guy who does conspiracies cool, but like where you're for Diana, why would anybody who watches Tana give a fuck about me?

  • I don't know.

  • But when I saw all the footage and I saw the kids making videos that were there, so many of them said they went there specifically to see me.

  • Oh, I think now I mean, there was kids who flew there to see me.

  • As soon as he announced that he was going, I bought a ticket, and then I was like, Oh, no need to fly.

  • You need a hotel and stuff.

  • Can I afford all of this?

  • No, but I did.

  • I was like, Oh, that's really cool, you know, like Shane Dawson doesn't really go out to conventions.

  • I spent $2000 to fly from Hawaii.

  • Well, that's another thing.

  • I don't even know if I'll get to meet Shane tomorrow.

  • I paid 1000 just to be here with my plane to gate and with the hotel.

  • There were so many people walking around in my picture and my other merge and with the Illuminati pop sockets.

  • And I think that's when it really hit really close to home.

  • This isn't tannic on anymore.

  • This is like all of us, Khan and all of these kids.

  • We're fucked over, and I'm part of that.

  • You know, my face was on the fucking website.

  • I told people Come see me and they got nothing.

  • Really, really got They got fucked.

  • I'm gonna say this right now.

  • The main reason why I bought Tana con tickets and like, beg to go on like my mom got this week.

  • My birthday was because of Shane, because I've been watching him for 10 years.
